Olá meu caro amigo, VASCO "por aqui",

pois, eu também me "estiquei" ontem à noite, não tive "forças" para editar quando cheguei :( Belo trabalho, os meus parabéns, só corrigi o começo de CLUB CAREER (segundo o LINK#2, parece que jogou pela primeira equipa do Porto) e pus os anos de U-21 na caixa.

Continuando: é verdade grande confusão de "box", onde é que este compadre não terá jogado?! Ufff.....O tempo: ainda a semana passada a gente se queixava do calor, agora "toma lá", chuva da boa, em Lisboa e também em Beja, pelo menos!

Abraços e boa semana - --Vasco Amaral (talk) 17:07, 1 May 2011 (UTC)[reply]

Thank you for your patience. I would like to move toward closure. Do you have a recommendation as to what you would to like to finalize before closing? Sunray (talk) 07:21, 4 May 2011 (UTC)[reply]

No problem Sunray. I´m not sure about the wishes of other participants, but on my behalve I could propose to you to present you by weekend a series of sources that we could work along with Tomasevich and others already listed, so at the end we can find balance between them. Would that be convenient? FkpCascais (talk) 08:32, 4 May 2011 (UTC)[reply]

Some reliable sources would be excellent. I will contact the other participants as well. However, as you and Nuujinn have been most active in recent weeks, I thought I would contact each of you first. Sunray (talk) 16:12, 4 May 2011 (UTC)[reply]

You were one of only three mediation participants who commented on what to do before closing the mediation. As there is not much energy to do further work on the mediation page, I am making a new proposal on wrapping it up here. If several participants agree on this approach, the mediation will have more force than an individual's actions. We could then move to the article talk page and continue the discussion on sources there. What do you think? Sunray (talk) 15:00, 13 May 2011 (UTC)[reply]

I apologise Sunray but I was suddently involved in much work these days, so I had really very few free time, I only now menaged to respond. Yes, I think is OK, although some parts about early life and some others that have been worked by some esditors in the current article could perhaps be usefull, but we can allways bring them back, so no problem.

I think one of most readable modern analyses of the situation is Stevan K.Pavlowitch, Hitler's new disorder : the Second World War in Yugoslavia, Columbia University Press, New York, 2007. A most interesting read. It's here on google books. Fainites ^barleyscribs 21:56, 10 May 2011 (UTC)[reply]

Yeap, I passed trough Walter Roberts already (unfortunately only a minor part is open online), and I´ll start Pavlowitch definitely tonight or tomorow. FkpCascais (talk) 22:01, 10 May 2011 (UTC)[reply]

I ordered Tomasevich and a few others on Amazon, Pavlowitch is there too. I actually found a copy of Pavlowitch the public library, and if there's one in Split's library, there's certainly one in Belgrade National (should you happen to be in the neighborhood). Pavlowitch is a renowned scholar, specializing in the field, and his publications are of course high-quality. As far as I'm concerned they are also a top-notch source.

The reasoon I picked Tomasevich as the "flagship source" is that Pavlowitch himself uses Tomasevich as a source in some of his work and has in general given War and Revolution in Yugoslavia very positive reviews. Indeed Tomasevich is in essence a boring detailed lis of facts directly derived from primary evidence, very little opinion or speculation included. Pavlowitch weaves the whole mess into a far more readable book.

I will make another note here, however: in past discussions you have used instances of Chetnik anti-Axis activity and presented them as an argument that somehow "negates" the collaboration. As I have said several times, this is a straw man argument. Nobody is disputing that the Chetniks did, at times, attack Axis forces, however: this has nothing to do with the question of their collaboration.

And as the sources explicity say, thanks to Draža Mihailović's very public and well documented policy of conflict evasion, these instances are (after 1941) "not to be compared" with the extent of Chetnik aid to the Axis (in the form of hunderds of thousands of men). --DIREKTOR ^(TALK) 00:02, 11 May 2011 (UTC)[reply]

I was born in Belgrade and I have a house there, but I actually live in Cascais (3,000 km away) for more than 20 years by now. Regarding the rest, I am not discussing mediation related issues outside mediaion. FkpCascais (talk) 00:09, 11 May 2011 (UTC)[reply]

I was pleased to learn about Cascais - I had wondered about your user name. Sunray (talk) 01:15, 14 May 2011 (UTC)[reply]

:) Well, it is consdered the nicest place in Portugal to live. Actually, most people do their best to live in Cascais-Estoril area, with sea access, beaches, golf, etc., and work in Lisbon, a 2 million capital city, which is just 20 minutes away by highway (I actually hold the dangerous stupid record of making it there in just 13 minutes - I was late to a flight). Most foreigners living and working in Lisbon area live here, just as the richest and most "interesting" Portuguese people (actors, nobility, TV people, all sorts of domestic celebrities). It´s really considered a priviledged area of the country. I live here since young, when my parents came to live here.

My username was really done in rush, without much thinking (I had some silly usernames earlier, as well). Since I intended to involve only with football stuff, as hobbie, and as way to avoid any controversial "headachy" stuff, I combined Fkp (the initials of my favourite football club: FK Partizan) with Cascais, so unfortunately there is not much mistery around it... With time I continued using it (I actually menaged not to forget my password with this one), and here we are! FkpCascais (talk) 12:55, 14 May 2011 (UTC)[reply]

[1] Partizan fans at their best, I love this clip xD

A ovo je u nas bilo nedavno, cirkus neviđeni.. Partizan i Hajduk su stari prijatelji iz juge, to znaš :) --DIREKTOR ^(TALK) 13:01, 14 May 2011 (UTC)[reply]

Yes, the Hajduk video is very nice! You choosed one very poor for Partizan, that song was about the time when they wanted to overtrough the club President. They did it, but the new guy is much worste... This video is just a goal celebration in a recent match. Basket matches are also fun in Belgrade. Hooligans are stupid, but I respect the fenomenom from the social perspective. In Serbia they actually have much political strenght, and they are far from being allways wrong (they were basically the ones that overtrough Milosevic, for exemple). But, don´t you dislike football? You know Torcida comes from a Portuguese word Torcedor, which means fan, and came to Split from Dalmatian sailors that saw football in Brazil? FkpCascais (talk) 13:17, 14 May 2011 (UTC)[reply]

Please guys. Seriously. Nobody serious or worth responding to is denying Mihailovic/Chetniks collaborated. That is not the argument. Please don't just start again with the old TLDR exchanges. The articles need to cover the complexities of the situation and present a full picture, from good sources and without OR. I think you will both enjoy reading Pavlowitch.Fainites ^barleyscribs 12:29, 11 May 2011 (UTC)[reply]

Hey great work on the Sándor Nemes article. It was one of those moments again as I was just about to write something about the guy. He kept bugging me ever since I created the league-winning managers list and I just ran into the RSSSF article the day before you created the article on wiki. It seems there's a lot of text about him on the German and Hungarian wikis so if you haven't already you might want to see if something more could be added. I'll look into it myself. But there also seem to be some inconsistencies. All the Yugoslav sources say "Antal Nemeš" won four titles as manager with BSK (1931, 1933, 1936 and 1939 - apparently Josef Uridil was in charge in 1935 although he is credited as "E. Uridil" in Yugoslav sources). This would mean that he was at BSK little before or little after his managing spell with Hasmonea in 1931 and that Uridil was at BSK in 1935 while Nemes was at Hapoel Hatzair. It also seems that he had left Borovo in 1939 at the earliest so he couldn't have coached Borovo in 1938. There's also another thing to consider - FK Vojvodina lists a certain "Karlo Nemeš" as having coached the team in 1933 and 1939 so it is possible that some sources mixed up these two guys (and I guess it is also possible that they are one and the same). I can't find any information on Karlo. Also, I happen to have a scanned copy of the book Večiti rivali (Ljubomir Vukadinović, 1943) which talks in detail about the history of derbies between BSK and SK Jugoslavija. The book is in Cyrillic. I flipped through it looking for some mention of Nemeš but didn't see any although it's possible that I missed it. It's a bit difficult for me to read long texts in Cyrillic so if you're interested I can mail it to you, maybe you can find something interesting in it. The book was written in 1943 so if there is something on Nemes it should be relatively reliable. On the other hand Nemes was a Jew and I don't know how likely it is for a writer writing in 1943 Belgrade to talk about a Jewish manager. Also, not a single Yugoslav source mentions Nemes having played for BSK in any of these seasons.

On an unrelated note - I'm missing full names of a handful of managers who reached the Yugoslav Cup final. The only winning manager I can't find is "D. Milić" who won the 1966 cup with OFK. I found one interview where he was referred to as "Dunja Milić" but I'm suspecting it is a nickname which stands for "Duško" or something similar. Your help would be appreciated if you could track down him or any others I'm missing.

On another unrelated note :) - check out Ozren Nedoklan. He's one of the missing Hajduk managers I was planning to write an article about but User:Jolicnikola stole the stuff I prepared in my sandbox on 11 May and then created the article on 13 May with exactly the same content (only an infobox and a few links). I only realised this yesterday. Is there some policy banning users to swipe stuff from other editors' sandboxes? I've left him a message on his talk page but he does not seem to ever reply to anything and he mostly makes small edits to third and fourt level barely notable Croatian clubs. Timbouctou (talk) 05:38, 19 May 2011 (UTC)[reply]

Thanks for your kind words about the article, although many doubts are cruising my mind on relation to it. I see everything is clear to you :) I found the RSSSF article, and then I linked his other name to find more on him. I basically used the German wiki text and translated it, including some stuff from RSSSF and Hungarian wiki. It all came out nicely, but as you well noteced there are some inconsistences and doubts left unsolved. One thing leaves me more calm, that Antal is the Hungarian equivalent of Alexander, I beleave. Another one is that data from that period is allways somehow missmenaged by +/- years... However, you are right, I forgot about his earlier titles with BSK. Anyway, it doesn´t seem to be a problem, since he returned from New York in 1930. I didn´t knew about Josef Uridil, but that seems to flow well, with one replacing the other in meantime... Anyway, I´ll have to fix those years definitelly. Regarding his playing role, I still didn´t searched for a list that I made of foreign names that played in Yugoslav clubs pre-1945, but I am 100% I was looking for a Nemes, however the surname is not uncommun so didn´t lead me nowhere back then, so that is why I suposed Playerhistory data could be right about him having played as well, and he wasn´t that much old at all (but needs double-checking). About Bata Borovo, you´re right, seems he had 2 spells, first one in 1938-39, then another after the war. I also didn´t checked his Galatasaray or Maccabi coaching spells anywhere yet.

About the derbies book, I already read it and used it as source for some articles. I found some players there, but it focuses more on the Yugoslav NT ones. It lists many line-ups, but far from all. It rarely talks on anything beside crude play, so there is not much about foreign coaches or players. However, the fact that it was written in 1943 may help a bit for the author to skip the Jewish coach part, so it even makes sence... but you´re right, as far as I remember, there isn´t a single word about Nemes in the entire book.

About D.Milić, I´ll see if I can find something in OFKa´s websites.

About the stolen article, I am not sure about how that is treated by wiki policies, but I suspect that once we have something on pages (including our own sandboxes) it is public domain, so all we have in this situation is a better knolledge about the caracter of certain individuals... :(

I´m going to check a few things and I´ll come to you hopefully with some answers. FkpCascais (talk) 08:48, 19 May 2011 (UTC)[reply]

About Milic he is stubbornly allways displayed everywhere as D.Milic grrrr... I already read a few interviews and allways mention him simly as Milic. I tried google searches with [Milic - Skoblar - Samardzic] also nothing... I need a pause and I´ll have to continue later.

About Uridil, it is everywhere said he coached BSK in 1935, so I´m starting to guess that he may coached BSK in the first half of 1935-36 season, while Nemes was in Israel, and Memes returned by winter thus taking the credits for the title in summer. Does this makes sence?

Also, seems that Uridil coached HAŠK earlier, ad that info is missing in his article. I´ll try to find the exact seasons, for now I only found this: [2] where HASK is mentioned, but without the exact year. FkpCascais (talk) 10:06, 19 May 2011 (UTC)[reply]

Hi! First, thanks for reverting vandalism in the article. Since I couldn't find "BIOMOS" on wikipedia I'm wondering why you removed some of the birth information from the article? As Mehmeti was born in what was at the time an autonomous province of Yugoslavia I think it is relevant to point that fact out, especially since Yugoslavia has since that time been split up into many different nations. I believe that these facts belong in the infobox and in the lead, not in the "club career" section where you have put it. Thanks! --Reckless182 (talk) 22:43, 19 May 2011 (UTC)[reply]

Hi Reckless, OK, just don´t forget that Kosovo was not an autonomous republic of Yugoslavia, but of Serbia (within Yugoslavia, big difference), so if you want to have it correct, you should put, exemple: Podujevo, SAP Kosovo, SR Serbia, SFR Yugoslavia... FkpCascais (talk) 22:48, 19 May 2011 (UTC)[reply]

My mistake, of course it was, Nevertheless I think we should put this information back in the lead and infobox. --Reckless182 (talk) 23:06, 19 May 2011 (UTC)[reply]

OK, put it as you want, cause I ended up notecing that all other club players have it done in that way. Just remember, some, mostly anglo-saxon editors have been insisting in skipping nationality complications from the lead, and to try to simplify it to just city+country, with no regions, provinces, etc. But, there is still a great number of biographies done the way you prefer (I also prefered it that way before) and a number of editors, so it is a debate to do in near future.

Here are the important links to this: specifically point 3.2 of WP:OPENPARA (this was what I meant, since it is under MOSBIO; and here was the last discussion on WikiProject Football: Wikipedia_talk:WikiProject_Football/Archive_53#.22of_X_descent.22. Note that I was defending the inclusion, and also note that Chris (the proponent of exclusion) is an admin. The discussion was about a kind of different stuff, but it all came up about ethnicity and mixed nationalities that is generally annoying many people, they want to simplify it to "Plays for Sweden, he a Swedish footballer, all the rest isn´t really important" I disagreed, but as you see, many are convinced that puting those countries/nationalities mentioning out, is better. I beleave we talked about this, and I also proposed to you to actively participate next time in such discussion, to see what best solution we can find out. FkpCascais (talk) 23:42, 19 May 2011 (UTC)[reply]

OK, I hope you're alright with my changes. Now I remember that we talked about these issues in the Dejan Garača article, sorry for that. I didn't notice your reply until I made the most recent changes, you're free to revert my edit if you'd like. --Reckless182 (talk) 12:24, 20 May 2011 (UTC)[reply]

I wan´t even check, cause I know you are a good dedicated editor and I´ll remember in future that all Malmö players are allways checked by you, but I hope in some near future to open a discussion for finding a universal formula on wikipedia on how to treat the cases of footballers with mixed nationalities, or different birthplaces, and I´ll poke you hoping you´ll participate and defend your points of view, cause having some articles in one way, and others on another isn´t a good thing. Until then I wish you good editing and send you redards! :) FkpCascais (talk) 19:37, 20 May 2011 (UTC)[reply]

Many thanks for your kind words! I do agree that a standard should be set for what should be mentioned in the lead and infobox. After my my final exams I'll have more time and I'll investigate to see if there is any way to start a discussion on setting such a standard. If you happen to stumble upon a similar discussion I'll be happy to participate when I have time. Regards --Reckless182 (talk) 08:38, 21 May 2011 (UTC)[reply]

Mm.srb (talk) 16:03, 20 May 2011 (UTC)[reply]

It allways feels good to receve nice words, thank you Mm.srb, but are you sure I am the right person for creating those articles? I mean, I really hate to dissapoint you, but I haven´t created any articles in the field of communications or law in Serbia, or any other place, at all, and I just ocasionally intervened in same related articles such as Serbian TV, propaganda during wars, or such, but it were just minor corrections, or vandalism revert... Law is someting I do and appreciate, but I have no knolledge whatsoever about the situation in Serbia, as I don´t live there for long time now, and communications media are a very interesting but wide subject. I mean, I wouldn´t know where to start. I could eventually translate some articles, or if there were related articles in sr.wiki it would be a easy starting point. However, between the Draža Mihailović mediation in which I am participant, and all historical football articles I am dedicated, I wan´t really have much time in following weeks.

I remember now, we met on the airports article you created. Great article! caught my attention right away, since airlines was something I was allways passionate however I haven´t edited anything about it on wiki. I hope you understood my edit about Kosovo back then, and as you saw, it didn´t took long for some Kosovar editor to come and demand things... :) I just tried to antecipate it...

Regarding the articles you want to create, do we have those articles in sr.wiki? FkpCascais (talk) 19:20, 20 May 2011 (UTC)[reply]

Ok mate. I just did not know who to ask, and I saw you had a lot of edits. If you know someone who is knowlagable in that field, I would appreciate that you ask. Please check Serbs discussion about infobox which I started recentrly.

Hi FkpC, yes I have no doubt in Timbouctou's wisdom and he is certainly a fine editor. It is also good that the two of you have reached agreements of such issues as you both edit passionately on soccer matters; your combined knowledge is an asset to the site. I'm more than happy to add my name to your list for simplicity and present Kingdom of for the 1918-WWII period and SFRY for the ensuing period up to 1991/92 but I take it that this will apply only to footballers. To have to deploy this term on every political figure or actor may be a difficult task. Evlekis (Евлекис) 01:40, 21 May 2011 (UTC)[reply]

Timbouctou and FkpCascais. I don't think it is important who headed the post-1992 Yugoslavia campaign. It's true that Yugoslavia to most people in and out of the region pertains to the vast territory from Slovenia to Macedonia, but I don't believe we should submit false information to compensate for people's general ignorance. I for example always - if discussing the Milošević country - say Federal Republic of or if talking to people in Croatia or Bosnia, "Savezna Republika". Naturally for the locals this causes no ambiguity but for persons outside of the former YU and especially in Western Europe, they just think FRY means the whole outfit. But I say again, one's ignorance is his own fault and the world is full of it. To give you both an example, you will be shocked by the number of people who believe that Yugoslavia was nothing more than a Soviet invention, created by Moscow in the aftermath of WWII as one of its sattelites and the end of Communism spelt the end for the country. I mean, these people have some knowledge, they know WWII happened and they know of the Iron Curtain and the Soviet influence; they also know YU was a communist country. A former friend of mine with whom I went to school (English, no surprise) believed Tito was a Russian who had been installed by the Kremlin to administer YU and when I invited him to Montenegro in March 2009, he even asked me there "are there still Russian troops here from the old days?". Where do you begin when trying to set people straight!! I've mentioned to some "Kingdom of Yugoslavia" for the pre-WWII period and they stare blankly. "Eh? Kingdom? Are you sure? How come? Communist wasn't it?? Sorry, after WWI did you say? Eh? I'm lost!!" But just to get back onto biographies of footballers. You two edit heavily on players in and around the former territory so I cannot see anyone getting away with disturbing the status quo. I'm happy to have Kingdom of YU (not SCS) for 1918-WWII and SFRY for the time after up to the 1990s. Evlekis (Евлекис) 11:43, 21 May 2011 (UTC)[reply]

One season things get so bad that the manager comes out of retirement to play on the pitch and the young 16 year old takes over as caretaker...any silly thing!

I don't think it is wise for you to edit the Yugo article while the mediation is still ongoing. I had reverted changes to the info box because I thought that consensus in the talk page should be sought first, considering the immense negative attention this article and warring over it had received in the past. But then you reverted my revert and proceeded to edit the article. In your next edit, which you described as "removing unsourced text", you removed the sentence

• "Chetnik units attacked the Partisans in November 1941, while increasingly receiving supplies and cooperating with the Germans and Italians in this." - the statement which was later in the article text followed by this source (which you did not remove). And that very source contains the following sentence:
• "Cetnik units attacked Partisans in November 1941 and began cooperating with the Germans and Italians to prevent a communist victory."

Timbouctou (talk) 05:56, 28 May 2011 (UTC)[reply]

I see it now, however I still fail to see supplies anywhere. I have sources for this "collaboration" in the early period, and is all but fair to simplify it like that. One says this, the other says how all negotiations failed because Chetniks were murdering Germans... Feel free to restore that part with more precise meaning. I don´t intend to edit the article, but the article was quite stable even after my infobox edit for many days now. FkpCascais (talk) 06:14, 28 May 2011 (UTC)[reply]

However, the source seems like just an unprecise resume... I say unprecise because he says a bit afterwords that Partisans attacked Chetniks, while I think that Chetniks attacked Partisans (thus Partisans acusing them of unloyalty). That is quite a serious acusation (collaborating with Germans) and source seems questionable, for such a hard acusation... WP:REDFLAG FkpCascais (talk) 06:20, 28 May 2011 (UTC)[reply]

Just one question and I have to leave, isn´t the infobox much better? The way it was before it looked like the entire united nations were fighting there... FkpCascais (talk) 06:48, 28 May 2011 (UTC)[reply]

FkpCascais - you know very well the infobox is as it is after long discussion on the talkpage in January of this year. To simply unilaterally alter it now without seeking consensus on the talkpage is merely disruptive. You may or may not be right about the infobox but you know vey well that attempts to change it like this will most likely get reverted and lead to edit wars. You say you have been reading sources. Good. Please set them out on the YugoFront page. (We are still awaiting the final mediated version of the Mihailovic page.)Fainites ^barleyscribs 14:36, 28 May 2011 (UTC)[reply]

Let me clarify my thoughts on old Draža.

Nobody claims that Draža Mihailović wasn't opposed to the Axis. The man hated the Germans. Nothing he did was really "wrong", and frankly, I would have probably done the same things had I been in his shoes. He correctly asserted that the greatest threat to the Kingdom of Yugoslavia were the Partisans and not the Axis. The Axis would either lose the war eventually, or simply crush him and the Partisans after they won - and he could not influence that in any significant way. Chiang Kai-shek, just like Draža, was also actually correct in his assertions that the communists were the greater threat than the Japanese, even when they occupied half the country.

Where did he make a mistake?

• From a strategic, military standpoint - nowhere. He HAD TO try and get Axis help if he was to destroy the Partisans, which he correctly saw as the primary threat. He simply did not have the miilitary power to do so otehrwise, and even with Axis cooperation he was not able to do so. His decisions and plans were militarily sound, he just did not manage to execute them properly. Many sources state that he was a popular but rather incapable commander, facing "one of the most ingenious guerrilla leaders of all time".
• From a legal standpoint, he made a mistake when he allowed and condoned his commanders cooperating with the enemies of the Kingdom of Yugoslavia. This was a good military decision, because the Partisans were the mor important problem, but a bad legal/political one. A commander of the Royal Yugoslav Army who sends a message to the enemies of the Kingdom of Yugoslavia in which he offers to "place himself at their disposal" is guilty of treason to the King during wartime, and is supposed to be arrested and shot by law. --DIREKTOR ^(TALK) 21:26, 30 May 2011 (UTC)[reply]

Thats not NPOV wording and you know it, Fkp. The consensus is that we do not use "dictator" and "dictatorship" on Wiki, being politically charged, non-encyclopedic terms. --DIREKTOR ^(TALK) 19:05, 1 June 2011 (UTC)[reply]

Because of your revert-warring and tendentious conduct on the Yugoslav Front article ([5][6][7][8]), and in light of your recent warning by another administrator [9], I am placing you on a general 1 reverts per 48 hours restriction on all Yugoslavia-related articles, for a period of six months. This will be logged as an arbitration enforcement sanction at WP:ARBMAC. Fut.Perf. ☼ 08:24, 2 June 2011 (UTC)[reply]

Hello. This message is being sent to inform you that there is currently a discussion at Wikipedia:Administrators' noticeboard/Incidents regarding an issue with which you may have been involved. Thank you. The thread is at Wikipedia:Administrators' noticeboard/Incidents#What to do? Regards, GiantSnowman 21:04, 2 June 2011 (UTC)[reply]

Many, many thanks. It is outragious that no one notified me about it since yeasterday, and that precipitated action against me was taken in that situation, basically having only in account the words of a highly problematic editor involved in a long standing hate against me, who basically missinformed every word on that report (probably the reason why I wasn´t notified until now), and without me breaking any whatsoever rule. From what I know in the past Future Perfet in Sunrise is a good administrator, however we don´t know eachother and he seems to have been driven into a totaly manipulated and precipitated decition. I was taking much in those discussions, and I was being extremely patient and allways doing everything by WP:POLICIES, basically insisting to finish discussions first and reverting disputed edits. I also asked for admin help to Fainites much earlier, however he is on hollidays. The user complaining against me thougth that it would be easier to push me away from the article (now that the familiarised admin on the subject was abscent) and that way to push his POV edits. That user even told me that he has a "genious IQ" (see here) I mean, how silier can the situation be? I wrongly assumed much good-faith, however I really hope this situation will be rectified. Thanks again :) FkpCascais (talk) 22:49, 2 June 2011 (UTC)[reply]

No problems at all; I fully agree that some of the actions here regarding you have indeed been questionable, especially the lack of notification & sudden, almost impulsive admin action. If I get some time over the weekend - quite busy in real life at the moment, sorry - I'll review the whole situation as best I can and weigh in with some help/advice.

Many thanks. Best regards! FkpCascais (talk) 23:31, 2 June 2011 (UTC)[reply]

What is all this about? The "whatsoever rule" you broke was WP:3RR. You received a very light sanction for persistent edit-warring [10][11][12][13] (against several users) to remove a long-standing, related image from the article, in spite of clear opposition, and without any semblance of a talkpage consensus. The only justification you posted is that this image is somehow the "same" as this image and that "clearly" therefore one of those two should be removed, to me that simply makes no sense at all. This strange "list of grievances", against me, admins, and the world in general, really has no connection to the reasoning behind the sanction you received. --DIREKTOR ^(TALK) 23:53, 2 June 2011 (UTC)[reply]

Would you read the WP:3RR? I did reverted, but I didn´t breaked the rule. About the rest, I will not discuss anything with you out of the discussion talk pages, or without supervision. Please don´t post more comments on this issue here. You failed to notify me about the ANI thread (a must), but you want to talk now? I hope FPS will give me a chance to explain myself (to him), and you will certainly have your chance to respond, so please don´t bother me in the meantime on my conversations with other users on my talk page, ok? Thank you. FkpCascais (talk) 00:06, 3 June 2011 (UTC)[reply]

WP:3RR: "An editor must not perform more than three reverts on a single page within a 24-hour period."

• revert 4 02:49, 2 June 2011 (Rv, image situation is clear. About source, I don´t see where that is said. Rv to Timbouctou version.)
• revert 3 20:07, 1 June 2011 (Rv vandalism and purpose missplacing edit with intention of deniying resistance rights to Chetnik movement. This was rightfully here.)
• revert 2 20:03, 1 June 2011 (Undid revision 432008958 by DIREKTOR (talk) Choose one out! You may just adore having them posing together, but one picture is enough. Stop your insulting POV!);
• revert 1 07:04, 1 June 2011 (Undid revision 431950596 by DIREKTOR (talk) 2 eaqual pictures want stay. Choose one out!)

You were also warned. --DIREKTOR ^(TALK) 00:31, 3 June 2011 (UTC)[reply]

Look at article´s edit history and you´ll actually see that 2 reverts (at 20h) are actually one, is just that I made several edits (3 to be precise) and instead of using preview, I made 3 separate edits using Rv edit summary in two of them. I also did it that way as way to explain each, not like you making several controversial edits in one purpously so to make it harder to separate them. Now, it was 3 reverts, not 4. You are just using the excuse of 4 because I stupidely used 4 edit summaries saying Rv. If you notece, there is no other user edits in betwen two of them (those at 20h) so the second could only be a real revert if I was reverting myself (?!). Seing the edit history is clear. FkpCascais (talk) 01:12, 3 June 2011 (UTC)[reply]

Editing seperately actually depicts more accurately the number of reverts than WP:gaming the system and being careful to include all edit wars in one post. In the end "which is worse" is not really significant: there is certainly no "clause" in WP:3RR that allows you to make more than three reverts so long as they are all done in succession (see 3RR exemptions). --DIREKTOR ^(TALK) 02:03, 3 June 2011 (UTC)[reply]

Hm, then you actually broke the WP:3RR rule:

• Revert 1 (1/6 5:22) "Rv non-consensus removal of relevant image"
• Revert 2 (1/6 14:52) "Rv non-consensus removal of content. The pictures you are talking about are not "equal" in any way, shape, or form"
• Revert 3 (1/6 23:43) "Adding sourced information, sources cited. No source(s) presented in contradiction" Where you don´t say it, but you actually revert a solution found by other users (Timbouctou) returning your one side concentrated "collaboration" description lead. "No sources presented in contradiction" so why are we debating this for so long in the mediation to present it fairly?
• Revert 4 (2/6 00:24) "Rv vandalism. POV no-consensus removal of long-standing, related image"
• Revert 5 and 6 (2/6 07:33) "All right, used the exact same words as the source, and added another source (using the exact same words), complete with relevant quotes.)" DOUBLE REVERT (reverting image, and reverting lead change with discussion still not finished!)

Actually, you did 5 reverts in 24 hours, 6 in 26 hours! And if I had so much bad faith as you I could also reverted your map additions untill we don´t finish the images at article discussions... So you basically revert all my attempts to edit the article, even if backed by sources or at agreement with others over images, but I don´t revert everything yours, just the issues that need to have consensus first, and I get punished. I´ll present this reverts of yours to FPS. FkpCascais (talk) 02:14, 3 June 2011 (UTC)[reply]

Even if we give you a good-faith chance, and not consider your 3th revert as revert, but an edit (which is questionable because you are reverting the meantime solution found by Timbouctou a few days earlier), you were revrted by me because we haven´t finished the discussion, we must consider it a revert when you again insist on it in your last (thus double) revert, where along that, you also revert the image as well, so again, at least 4 reverts in less then 24 hours. FkpCascais (talk) 02:22, 3 June 2011 (UTC)[reply]

Heh nice try. Sigh.. yes if we count all your successive reverts as one revert, and count my one revert as fifteen - I should be sanctioned and you "acquitted" with honors.. :) One revert counts as one revert, regardless of whether its done in succession or not. And one revert cannot somehow constitute twenty reverts.

• "Revert 3" is, of course, not a revert. Posted completely new, sourced text, and did not alter anyone's work.
• Same case as "Revert 3". The single edit you call "Reverts 5 and 6" does not constitute a single revert. I am not reverting anyone's work, I am adding a completely new piece of text into the article (that caters to your demands, I might add). And, of course, you do not get to proclaim that one source "counts" as two..

I did 3 reverts, and I hasten to add that all three were in restoring the consensus version of the text. You can be sure I am at all times very careful not to violate WP:3RR. Once again, though, you're talking about me for some reason. --DIREKTOR ^(TALK) 02:41, 3 June 2011 (UTC)[reply]

No, you actually made at least 4. Count them. FkpCascais (talk) 02:47, 3 June 2011 (UTC) Sourcing it doesn´t change facts, you was actually restoring your "collaboration" lead and replacing the "meantime solution" found until we don´t finish the discussion. Changing sources or a few words doesn´t change the fact that you were replacing an accepted version while discussing. Even if we consider your 3th as edit, the last one is a revert because you was reverted and you insist again on it. Seems that it was you wanting to game the system by using another source, or changing a few words, so it want count as same edit. FkpCascais (talk) 02:50, 3 June 2011 (UTC)[reply]

I just did. As I said, the last edit constitutes the addition of a completely new piece of text, and does not undo or replace anyone's work. Now please, this subject seems very childish. --DIREKTOR ^(TALK) 02:54, 3 June 2011 (UTC)[reply]

On the Draža_Mihailović article talk page you said: "Regarding of which, I can´t resist not showing my disapointmend about the strict scrutiny that my comments go trough..." I don't think this way of personalizing the discussion is productive. Also, I wonder if you are really considering this objectively. I can only take responsibility for what I see. I often do tell other participants to remove remarks that I consider in violation of WP:NPA, as I did here. However, frankly, I do not always read posts that I find too long. At the time you were referring to, I was not moderating. Several observations were made about TLDR. My reaction was that we needed some terms for discussion. I didn't start moderating on the talk page until June 14. Since then, I have tried to ensure that discussion is civil. There are two actions that I think would help to move toward a more constructive discussion: 1) For starters, I will refactor your post into a collapse box. 2) Would you be able to make a constructive comment about the terms? You could agree with suggestions made by Nuujinn or Direktor, or add your own suggestions. Sunray (talk) 18:37, 15 June 2011 (UTC)[reply]

I will give you Sunray an answer on this as soon as I find a peacefull 5 minutes later today. I need to focus in order to explain myself in best way and I want to do it properly here. I am saying this just so you wan´t missinterpret a few edits of mine I do in meantime on other issues which are unrelated with the mediation :) Best regards, FkpCascais (talk) 21:54, 15 June 2011 (UTC)[reply]

After further thought, I removed that comment your referred to, as it was a fairly blatant example of a personal attack. I have also refactored your comments on the article talk page. In the future, would you be willing to discuss such personal concerns in another forum? In a moderated discussion, that could be on a moderator's talk page. That way discussion is less likely to be disrupted (and your issue is more likely to be addressed). Thank you, in advance, for your cooperation. Sunray (talk) 22:43, 15 June 2011 (UTC)[reply]

I also thank you for adressing this issues. I have some questions:

1 - After all difficulties I faced at the discussion Talk:Draža_Mihailović#An_arbitrary_break, seems we have an agreement to use the quoted text I proposed as consensus. However, since then, all my questions regarding this, or its inclusion in the draft have been left unaswered. Some attention on this is needed.

2 - I made some questions to Nuujinn regarding the draft that were also left unanswered, or more precisely, were answered with unrelated content. You already said that you don´t opose the expansion of those sections, and I will like to ask to include in the draft the sourced parts of those sections that have nothing to do with the disputed areas.

3 - Would it be possible, please, to replace the sentence about direktor that you removed from my first collapsable comment with a simple version saying: I am also concerned about the already expressed intention of direktor to add the disputed edits after the mediation ends. I beleave it want make much difference and it is not offensive to anyone, but if anyone decides to read it, at least he would know what I was refering to because the way it is left now it doesn´t make much sense.

With regard to the mediation, I allways agreed with your terms, civility and the correct use of sources. I beleave that my recent behavior at the discussion about "passive resistance" has been very much what I beleave it is suposed to be. The problem you found in my other latest comments has to do with the problem I had been facing, and I just couldn´t not protest against it. For me, it is obvious that lately it become completely impossible to participate without you, or some other form of mediation intervening, since I can have all the sources and reasons, but my inoportune requests seem to be dealt either by attacks or by ignorance. This may sound a bit hard, but it is what I am actually going trough in practice. I hope I clarified some of my concerns. Thank you very much for hearing me. FkpCascais (talk) 04:37, 16 June 2011 (UTC)[reply]

With respect to your first two points: Consensus is consensus. I wouldn't worry about it. Right now the priority is to get some sort of agreement on terms of discussion. All content issues will be dealt with once we get started. If the moderator(s) forget something that has been part of a working consensus, please remind them.

Regarding your third point, here's what I suggest: Remove the existing text in the collapsible box and replace it with the text you have above. Be sure to provide a diff to the exact comment made by Direktor. Sunray (talk) 15:22, 16 June 2011 (UTC)[reply]

There is no consensus on your interpretation of the source you quoted from that blog, it is out of context and even so does not say what you claim it states. How you got that idea is beyond me, tbh, since there is virutally universal opposition.

• @"I can have all the sources and reasons, but my inoportune requests seem to be dealt either by attacks or by ignorance."
  • I beg to differ. You have posted a grand total of one (1) source in this discussion in the past four to six months (and you got it from a Serbian nationalist blog which took it completely out of context and then you pushed the blog's interpretation of the source.) The most frequent sentence addressed to you is the vain request "please post your sources". In fact, none of the sources support any of your claims. Months ago now, you requested time to (quote) "gather sources" and it was granted you - none of these alleged sources have yet even been mentioned by name.
    

Throughout this discussion the only method I've seen is admin sweet-talking, which seems necessary as a substitute to sourced facts. "consensus" vs sources is the name of the game. It is because of this that, unless adherence to the sources is finally strictly enforced, this issue will not end in the forseeable future. Its time to discuss what the sources say, not what you say. This I have been repeating for months now. --DIREKTOR ^(TALK) 16:32, 16 June 2011 (UTC)[reply]

Direktor, statements such as "admin sweet-talking" are also personal remarks. I hope that in the next phase of the discussion you will cease making this sort of remark. Would you be able to do that? Sunray (talk) 21:52, 16 June 2011 (UTC)[reply]

Come now Sunray, wouldn't you say you're being just a tad too rigorous? I mean I certainly did not insult the man.. --DIREKTOR ^(TALK) 06:06, 17 June 2011 (UTC)[reply]

The essence of the policy is "comment on content, not the contributor." When personal comments and attacks have been the hallmark of a mediation, I don't think it too rigorous to follow the policy to the letter. Sunray (talk) 16:48, 17 June 2011 (UTC)[reply]

Hm, that's a nice way of puting WP:NPA in a nutshell ("essence"?) but its not to be taken literally. I mean, what if I were to compliment Nuujin on his dilligence? Would you warn me against "commenting on the contributor"? I'm not exactly new to Wiki policy and the point I'm making is that the phrase you quote cannot really be followed "to the letter" - an arbitrary criteria simply has to be imposed one way or the other. In this case for example, I am not really "commenting on the contributor" himself, I am commenting on the contributor's mode of discussion - a subject which directly concerns how we discuss content. --DIREKTOR ^(TALK) 19:52, 17 June 2011 (UTC)[reply]

Saying that someone is "sweet-talking admins" is a (negative) comment on the contributor and falls within the scope of WP:NPA. It's the difference between saying that someone's data is incorrect and saying that that someone is a liar. Sunray is right and you might want to consider weighing your words more carefully. Timbouctou (talk) 22:14, 17 June 2011 (UTC)[reply]

So one cannot point out a negative aspect of a user's methods of dicsussion? --DIREKTOR ^(TALK) 22:22, 17 June 2011 (UTC)[reply]

Of course one can and negative aspects of your own methods of discussion have indeed been pointed out to you more than once in the past. It's the way these comments are said. Criticism which itself does not exactly constitute the desirable method of discussion is unlikely to be taken seriously and is generally more likely to be read as a comment on the remark's author, not its subject. Timbouctou (talk) 22:49, 17 June 2011 (UTC)[reply]

I apologise to everyone for my abscence but I have been a bit bussy these days. I see more unecessary discussions here. @Direktor, how can you argue with people over this? How can you consider me sweet-talking admins? If anyone here has been quite hard on others, sometimes almost taking the situation with admins to the limit, I beleave it was me. What I beleave you consider sweet-talking is something different, something that comes naturally from me, and that is simply being kind, and "normal" I guess, something I simply don´t know how not to be, when I have no reasons to act otherwise. I mean, you recently said something similar on bottom ofthis conversation, where I simply wished "nice hollidays" to Fainites... Anyway, I beleave everyone here can be witness how I am not a "sweet-talker" and how I often don´t give up by no means until I am finally convinced, right the oposite. I honestly think I never said or did anything just to please someone, I dare you to find even one exemple where I was inconsistent of myself and did or said something to "please" someone. Direktor, I usualy say thanks when I have to, and I also excuse myself when I think appropriate, but that is how I am, and that is my education, I can´t possibly see what´s bothering you about it? If we had different educations, and if you are sometimes rude and uncivil, I can´t understand how can you complain on me for not being like you? I really hope that is the worste complain someone can have on me!

@Sunray, I am OK with any sugestions about discussion policies you have. I allways favoured and signed all your requests in the past, and my only remark goes about the fact that you never applied any punishment or penalties to the ones that break them. I would also like to point out to one very annoying situation that is a bit hard to explain, but I beleave it is a very important reason why the discussions go wrong. It has to do with propaganda and missinformation in discussions (!?). For exemple, I see Direktor has opened a thread, Talk:Draža_Mihailović#Collaboration_in_the_lead where already in his opening comment he makes a series of false statements about me. I mean, now what? Should I enter into the discussion explaining everything wrong that he (intentionally?) said? And we´ll loose 10-20 comments just on that... I´m not sure if that is covered by the policies, but direktor has done it knowing that it is not trouth, and it is pure propaganda and provocation. This enervates oponents so much, that from what I was told it has been the main reason why many good editors have simply left this discussions. It is a serios issue, and I´ll really like to adress it at highest possible level as the most obstructing way for healthy discussions. FkpCascais (talk) 00:46, 18 June 2011 (UTC)[reply]

Fkp, I reverted an edit that an IP made to your userpage, it appeared to me to be vandalism. Just 'fessing up in case it wasn't a vandal. --Nuujinn (talk) 21:40, 17 June 2011 (UTC)[reply]

Yes, it was vandalism indeed. Seems that some new users don´t understand that in infoboxes we use the country of birth at time the person was born, and he seems to think that we should use the current existing countries. I beleave the case he seems to be involved in is Xherdan Shaqiri where I probably reverted him to SFR Yugoslavia, as that was the name of the country in October 1991, however he thinks that we are reverting his replacing of it by Kosova because of nationalism... Anyway, he seems to have been more involved in disputes with another user, and I´m not sure why he picked me, but who knows... Thank you Nuujinn. FkpCascais (talk) 00:20, 18 June 2011 (UTC)[reply]

No problem, glad to help. --Nuujinn (talk) 00:22, 18 June 2011 (UTC)[reply]

Nuujinn, it was only now that I saw what you said to me at the discussion at M talk page. With regard to your points directed to me, the first about DIREKTOR, I beleave it has been solved since the comment is not there any more. I was a bit jumpy back then because of it, but after a minor wiki-break and with that solved it is time to move on. With regard on the "agreement" it really seems that it was a missunderstanding on my behalve. I thought that your last post about it was saying that we had to use the exact words from the source ("coincided initially") to what I agreed, and I even asked you to confirm it just next, and as you didn´t unswered me no more on that I thought everything was clear. I never intended to missinform, obviously knowing that you were present on the discussions I mentioned it, where I was really hoping to get a feedback from you on that. I had no bad intention, on the contrary, I wanted to finish it and confirm it. FkpCascais (talk) 03:08, 18 June 2011 (UTC)[reply]

Fkp, I am not willing to discuss anything about the M article except on the mediation or article talk page. There are some active proposals I made regarding how to continue discussions, if you would like to discuss those there, I am willing to do that.

Izvinjavam se stvarno zbog nekulture ali sam skroz u gužvi zbog selidbe. Što se tiče Pešikana, oduvek sam hteo da napravim članak o njemu ali nemam dovoljno informacija o njemu. On živi na pet minuta od mene i nekoliko puta sam se sreo s njim. Veoma fin čovek.

Što se Maria Ostojića tiče, on je okončao igračku karijeru i trenutno je sportski direktor FK Srpski beli orlovi. Redovan sam posetilac njihovih utakmica i takođe ga znam lično. Nekada mi dođe da ih intervjuišem zbog članaka hehe.

Što se Tempa tiče, još uvek nisam imao priliku da ih pregledam ali pregledaću ih. I mene živo interesuje koji su to stranci igrali kod nas. Zavidim ti što nađeš toliko vremena da izdvojiš Vikipediji. Ja izdvojim vreme ali često to i radim kada bih trebao biti posvećen nećem drugom npr. škola itd.

PS.

Kakav je život u Kaškaišu? Otkud tebe tamo? Verovatno te često pitaju ali eto haha moram da pitam. Jel imaš neki hotmejl gde bi mogli da lakše komuniciramo?

Veliki pozdrav!

PPS.

Još jedno pitanje. Da li te ima i na srpskoj vikipediji?

Kao sto vidis i meni se desi da me nema neko vreme (komp mi se nesto pokverio bio, a i bio sam na odmoru desetak dana), pa ti zato tek sad odgovaram. Nema problema, ne brini uopste zbog toga, znam ja po mom watchlist da te nema sa vremena na vreme pa ne moras uopste da se brines da ne pomislim da si ne kulturan ili tako nesto, nema uopste frke. Ako hoces mozes da odes na opcije u koloni levi gde ces naci "E-mail this user" pa mozemo preko mejla da budemo u kontaktu.

Uspem da izdvojim vremena jer radim preko komjutera (na srecu cesto kod kuce), pa kao pravi juzno evropljanin usput lencarim i editujem ovde gluposti, hehe.

U Kaskais sam dosao jos kao klinac krajem osamdesetih sa roditeljima koji su otvorili kliniku ovde. Pre toga sam ziveo nekoliko godina u Meksiku pa mi nije bilo tesko da naucim portugalski posto je relativno slican spanskom koji sam vec znao. Mesto je fino, to je u stvari deo Lisabona koji je isturen na moru (jer je Lisabon inace 20 km unutra, na reci). Ovde zivi vecina stranaca koji zive i rade u Lisabonu, kao i vecina domacih koji imaju malo bolje mogucnosti, pa svako ko moze izbegava da zivi u gradu i gleda da se nastani u ovom lepsem delu: Cascais, Estoril ili Sintra. Ovde su za razliku od Lisabona kuce, plaze, golf i tenis klubovi, a sve ovo je samo 20-tak minuta udaljeno od Lisabona autoputem. Ovde sam odrastao, ali kad god mogu dodjem kod nas u Beograd gde imam stan. U Portugalu inace nema puno nasih, pa sem nekoliko nasih sa kojima se druzim, ostali prijatelji su mi vecinom portugalci (ukljucujuci i devojku) i drugi stranci koji ovde zive i sa kojima sam odrastao. Posto sam kao mlad ucio u spanskoj gimnaziji druzili smo se puno sa drugim strancima iz drugih stranih skola (americka, engleska, francuska i nemacka) pa mi je zato drustvo mesano i navikao sam da budem predstavnik Srbije u mom drustvu. Ziveti u Portugalu se jedino isplati ako se zivi u mom kraju, ili eventualno na turistickom jugu (Algarve ili na Madeiiri), ostalo nije toliko lepo. U zadnjim godinama se situacija pogorsala sa krizom (verovatno znas preko vesti), pa se povecala razlika izmedju bogatih i siromasnih, sto nije dobro... Elem, ako ova kriza nastavi (jer su im politicari isto lopovi kao kod nas), moze da se desi da se preselim u Madrid gde mi zive isto prijatelji, mada je i tamo kriza...

Sto se tice nase vikipedije, ne editujem puno tamo (da ne kazem uopste). Mozda zbog nacina kako sam odrastao, prirodnije mi je da editujem teme o nama namenjene strancima, a ne nasima, pa zato editujem englesku viki, koja je najvise medjunarodna od svih. Iskreno, od vremena od kada sam ostisao iz Srbije, mentalitet se kod nas dosta promenio (mislim, nije ni cudo imajuci u vidu sta nam se sve desilo), pa se cesto razocaravam i iznerviram kada diskutujem neke stvari sa nasima... Imamo puno pametnih ljudi koji su rasprseni po inostranstvu koji nazalost ne zele da se petljaju sa problemima kod nas i sa novokomponovanim mentalitetom koji hara kod nas, sto je steta. Eto recimo i u fudbalu pametni ljudi kao Anta ili Bora Milutinovic ne mogu da dodju jer ne odgovaraju novokomponovanim budalama koji vladaju nasim fudbalom, pa tako vidim da je ista situacija i u drugim oblastima.

U kom si ti delu Kanade?

Srdacan pozdrav Tempo! FkpCascais (talk) 16:42, 16 July 2011 (UTC)[reply]

Hvala na lepim rečima, živo me interesovalo otkud nekog našeg u Portugalu. Rođen sam u Torontu i ceo život sam ovde ali znam vrlo dobro o toj promeni mentaliteta o kojem pričaš. Istina je, nažalost. Velika šteta. Čak mi je i depresivno kad mislim o tome. Ovo mi dođe kao sjajan hobi pre svega, mogu da isključim kad hoću i da izbacim kreativnu energiju hehe.

Drug i ja smo napravili članak o Blaži Pešikanu i danas vidim da je neko ispravio datum rođenja, dodako neke klubove i info! Sjajno! Zato kažem, živela Vikipedija! Mogao sam ja da ga pitam ali mi je nekako glupo jer ga ne znam sad baš toliko dobro.

Brate, ako edituješ na španskoj ili portugalskoj Vikipediji, jel bih mogao molim te da napraviš ovaj članak?

Baš bih ti bio zahvalan, da znaš! Još uvek prelistavam ove Tempo časopise. Najlepše je kad nađeš neke skandale poput toga da su Bata Đora i Džajić kumovi ili neku bombastičnu izjavu poput "Miroslav Đukić - Partizan je mali klub" ili "Saša Ćurčić - u Zvezdu da, u Partizan nikako!" hehe.

Drago mi je što se ispričasmo.

Yes, you have been following the recent events. The club finished 3th, and only the first 2 club were suposed to be promoted, but since the champions BASK don´t have conditions to play in top league the spot was atributed to them. The league will begin in mid August, so only then many of the players will have their first top league appereance thus making them notable.

I really apologise for being more abscent and I hope you notece I have been having sme problems with my cp even before my hollidays, so only wen I returned recently I got him back. I can allways use my girlfriends one, but this editing of wp is smething personal of mine and I prefer to keep it that way, so I waited until I could have my privacy on my cp again. The problem is that I have been quite bussy off-wiki these weeks, and beside some minor edits unrelated to the mediation I haven´t really had the desired time to catch up everything happening there and I don´t want to make unnecesary precipitated interventions. I really can´t make predictions about how are going to be my following days and weeks, even more because I may make a short travell again next week, however I expect to be on-line on daily basys and pleae feel free to ask me for any help or clarification that I may provide.

Sorry about the "drive-by-revert". I don't edit the Nikola Tesla article and, frankly, participating in the discussion there is about the last thing I'd want to do. (And if it involves Serbo-Croatian vs Serbian or Croatian, then ever more so.) My revert should not be construed as my support for the "Serbo-Croatian" version of the article. (I have general reservations on the use of "Serbo-Croatian" as opposed to either Serbian or Croatian, although in this particular case it may seem like a good compromise.) It's just that your rationale was based on claims that are strictly speaking not true. I've made the revert strictly based on that, without prejudice as to which version is "better". (I'm not sure myself.) Edit summary is too short to explain that. I might still drop a note on the article's talk page if I find it useful for the discussion.

To je bilo debelo prije nego šta je uopšte ovo počelo. Znaš već kako ide, sve se ostavi na status quo ante bellum inače nema kraja gluparijama.

Cetnici i Draža su bili antifašisti.. tu i tamo. Šta su oni tvrdili o sebi, tj. kakva je bila propaganda, nije pretjerano bitno. A s obzirom na to da su im najbolji prijatelji u cijeloj okupiranoj Jugoslaviji bili upravo talijanski - fašisti, uvjeravam te da tu ima materijala za debatu. Ostavimo to za poslije. --DIREKTOR ^(TALK) 23:11, 28 July 2011 (UTC)[reply]

Actually this isn't quite a fair "deal" as the Ravna Gora movement (AKA Chetniks) is already in the list of fascist organisations. Odd really as I would have thought there was more to being a fascist organisation than merely being murderous, right-wing nationalists, as they are so often portrayed. Anyway - I would agree that it is probably best to leave discussion on this point until some consensus is reached on the DM and probably the Chetniks articles.Fainites ^barleyscribs 14:20, 29 July 2011 (UTC)[reply]

Fainites, I did not imply the Chetniks were fascists. They were not. In Yugoslavia those were the ZBOR, aka the "Ljotićevci". I'm merely saying that their status as "anti-fascists" is debateable due to the fact that their most steadfast allies in the whole conflict were, well - the Italian fascists. And we're talking best of pals.

Anyway, whatever was the original state of affairs - I'm for restoring it. --DIREKTOR ^(TALK) 14:33, 29 July 2011 (UTC)[reply]

No problem. He seems to have missunderstood me as well. Anyway, the edit was added by this IP at March 16th this year ([14]). The qualit of the edit is poor, some facts are grosl mistaken, and is completely unsourced. The Chetniks were never fascist movement, so we have no issues about this I think. FkpCascais (talk) 20:31, 29 July 2011 (UTC)[reply]

Fkp, you regularly interpret my posts with far more hostility than was intended, and I've pointed this out numerous times. You treat my actions at all times with, in my opinion, extreme paranoia. The source of any strong feelings I may have with regard to this issue is certainly not any hostility towards Serbs or Draža or the Chetniks (in fact I used to date a gal from Belgrade a couple years back ;)), at this point its mostly that this has lasted so damn long its getting on my nerves. --DIREKTOR ^(TALK) 21:22, 29 July 2011 (UTC)[reply]

Come on DIREKTOR, you don´t need to victimize yourself, I was ironic, and maybe coldly honest, but that is the least what you can expect to a person that insists to have the movement equally mentioned along Ustase at every collaboration template, infobox or article. Seems you don´t understand how insulting that is, and then you expect others to be cool with you? Chetniks did some bad things back then, and no one is deniying that neither painting them as angels, but you were deniying them troughout all the process all their "positive" aspects, and you expect everyone in the world to associate Chetniks same way many people in Croatia do, honestly, it is like expecting everyone in the world to accept Palestinian view on Israeli´s, and even Palestinians would mostly be aware that they have a biased view on the issue. Direktor, I am aware that many people from our region tend to exagerate and fight one day and drink and eat the next one, but I am not that way, and I hope ou wan´t mind if I limit myself to disagree when ou are wrong and to agree with you when you are right, in my view. Best regards. P.S. : The irony I epressed has to do with the fact that you promptly revert all changes when you feel like, but when the edit is other way around you say you "could´t care less". If you edit one subject and you have real interess, you wouldn´t act this way, because this seems more like editing with the purpose of expanding and diseminating your POV, rather then a real interess in improving the subject. FkpCascais (talk) 21:48, 29 July 2011 (UTC)[reply]

You see what I'm talking about, Fkp? You interpreted the above as some evil plan of mine to turn people against you by "victimizing" myself. I'm not victimizing myself: I've been saying this for months. And I've been saying it because its annoying. And since its annoying I'm trying to put a stop to it. In other words, my real plan here is to keep pointing this out so that you might stop and think about the possibility that my post is perhaps not a hidden insult and/or part of some mysterious "plan" of mine you've got to figure out. I'm actually a very straightforward, even blunt, individual - in fact it is frequently evident I'm having trouble keeping my "bluntness" in check :).

As for the rest, I don't see how you were insulted. Even if the Chetniks did not collaborate (and they did en masse), how is it you yourself feel personally insulted by what you perceive as their "wrongful" placement in some infobox? I can't imagine any Wikipedia content edit has the capacity to actually "insult" me. I find that personally incomprehensible but not all that surprising. If you actually get insulted when you think people have wronged the Chetniks, how can we discuss this issue calmly?

Finally, I never denied any "positive aspects" of the Chetniks. From the very start I could not understand why you were posting their "positive aspects" in a discussion on how to cover their "negative aspects", as if they cancel each-other out or something. I dare say I know exactly where when and in what number the movement conducted anti-Axis activity. --DIREKTOR ^(TALK) 23:54, 29 July 2011 (UTC)[reply]

Don´t wary direktor, as I said, I´ll allways point out en masse when you do something wrong just as I will point out when you do something good. You already told me recently how you have an extremely high IQ so you don´t have to warry with me then (although , speaking of, I am sure there was some mensa rule that says something like "...if you say to some 3th person that your IQ is extremely high, you automatically loose 20 points", I´ll try to find it one of these days). If our goal is to have a balanced article, from what I see we seem to be on the right direction, although I still think the article focuses much more on the, so called, negative aspects of his life, while the, so called, positive ones are much resumed, so I think you don´t have much reasons to feel unhappy. I am still not convinced of your capability of treating this polemical subject objectively, and you also lost a good chance to at least try it on the recent ocasion where you said that you "couldn´t care less". So, hey, please don´t call me a conspiracist, I even gave you a chance. Anyway, as I said, don´t warry, just please don´t come here asking me to postpone a correction in some article and leave the movement unfairly presented as fascist, oposing to that is not being a conspiracist. FkpCascais (talk) 01:03, 30 July 2011 (UTC)[reply]

As a matter of fact I only lose 20 points if I mention it to someone with a low IQ. Are you at all capable of writing a post without hostile comments? --DIREKTOR ^(TALK) 14:10, 30 July 2011 (UTC)[reply]

Tempo21 (talk) 23:50, 14 August 2011 (UTC)[reply]

You raise a very interesting point and I can tell you that this is not the easiest to explain. First of all, me personally, I have always romanised Macedonian consistently with the Gaj alphabet with which you are familiar in Serbian. So Ѓубрето во вреќата would become Đubreto vo vrećata (slang: the rubbish in the bin-bag). Certainly in Yugoslav times this was the standard and if you examine some of the pre-1991 road signs across Macedonia, you'll find Ćafasan and Sveti Đorđe (Ќафасан и Св Ѓорѓе). I believe that the switch to Kj/Gj has become more rife since independence but I believe there is no true standard, not least because Macedonian is most widely written in Cyrillic. Either way, Gjurgjević is wholly inconsistent, it employs one feature from the modern arrangement and another from the previous. On the whole, /kj/ is seemingly undesirable for end place characters so my preference is the Gaj script all the way - just bearing in mind that Macedonian also has /ѕ/ (trans. dzvezda). Evlekis (Евлекис) (argue) 00:03, 15 August 2011 (UTC)[reply]

Đurđević and Djurdjević are largely one and the same - /dj/ being an accepted alternative. Gjurgjević contains inconsistency. Djurdjeviќ, Gjurgjeviќ or Gjurgjeviќ are fine, except the final /ќ/ is unadopted in any of the world's Latin-based scripts. Just looking at the character, it is clear that it has been drawn from Macedonian Cyrillic. It is technically an illegal character in any Latin script as to look at it, you see it is a capital K shrunk, rather than a small /k/. This is rather like the Icelandic thorn - they are using it on Wikipedia but it is not supposed to be used on any official document outside of Iceland as it is not a property of the 26-letter standard Roman alphabet, it is romanised as "th". Ǵokić also presents inconsistency. As Latinic is not widespread in Macedonia, as with Bulgaria, few really know the transliteration solution and the correct codes. In Bulgaria you get Nesebar, Nessebar, Nesebur or Nessebur (Несебър). Thanks for enlisting my help, but I am not a competent adjudicator on this one, and like all things Macedonian - it is a chaos!! :) ----Evlekis (Евлекис) (argue) 16:24, 15 August 2011 (UTC)[reply]

Interesantan podatak.

„Hajduk je uz Čeha Jiržija Jeslineka doveo iz Albanije Eduarda Abazija. Prvotimac Dinama iz Tirane zaigrao je u gradu pod Marjanom a za njegov nekadašnji tim angažovano je pojačanje iz Jugoslavije. Kadri Krasnići prvi je jugoslovenski fudbaler koji je zaigrao za neki tim iz Albanije. Obukao je dres baš Dinama iz Tirane.

Kako nam kaže Dušan Maravić, sekretar Međunarodne komisije FSJ, ne postoje propisi koji ograničavaju broj ovih igrača u našim timovima.

Nažalost, vreme je takvo da su sasvim zamrle ili su čak i pokidane veze u pojedinim savezima. Slabi su, ili nikakvi, kontakti između istočnog i zapadnog dela zemlje i teško je doći do ovih podataka. Zato je moguće da ovi spiskovi nisu precizni ali u ovakvim uslovima teško ih je bilo drugačije sastaviti”.

A bit outside your usual edting region, but we are discussing a diacritic issue here and I thought you may be interested to add your view. Evlekis (Евлекис) (argue) 20:18, 23 August 2011 (UTC)[reply]

he was born in Pula, I see his surname written in a lot of different ways, do you think it can be Vojak, Vojach, Wojak, Wojach or what? It's a surname typical from what area of Croatia? Knowing the true surname and his area would help me to find news about his first years in career.. thank you very much! 93.56.45.94 (talk) 17:27, 3 September 2011 (UTC)[reply]

Well, in Serbo-Croatian it would certainly be Vojak. Serbian, Croatian and Slovenian don´t have W in their respective alphabets, however, Croatian and Slovenian do use them in foreign names, while in Serbian W is transliterated to V. With regard to k, the same applies, if his original surname was written with ch, in Croatia and Slovenia it would stay as ch, but in Serbian it would be transliterated into what it sounds, in this case k, so I would bet his original form was k.

But anyway, I think that it may well be possible that Vojak was the original form, as the surname sounds Slavic in origin, and the other versions would probably be an Germanised forms, probably used in Austrian newspappers as such. I´ll try to see if I can find more about him, but Vojak seems to be the correct form. FkpCascais (talk) 18:53, 3 September 2011 (UTC)[reply]

I'm afraid that "Lucas" in NK Domžale was Jefferson Lucas, would you like to check the exact match this archive refer to?

Yes, you are right. Transfers register leaves no doubts. Great discouvery! The mistake sems to be that Slovenian league official website for some reason wrote "Lucas da Silva" so that was the reason of the confusion. I also makes perfect sense, as all 3 players that winter moved from Londrina to Domzale. Great job Mat! FkpCascais (talk) 19:55, 4 September 2011 (UTC)[reply]

A reply on my discussion page. Pantagana (talk) 17:04, 25 September 2011 (UTC)[reply]

The players on the other notables list are the ones who have been regulars in the past but are not on the team now for various reasons. Spirovski has only made one cap for the senior team but there are guys ahead of him who have made frequent appearances but are not in the latest squad. Spirovski is on the U21 team. As for the five players at each position, I don't think the list should be too long (since there is not a lot of depth) so I just added 3 keepers and five position players for the other areas (defense, midfield, and attack).

Well, it's that simple: He never played in Serbia. There is exactly one "source" on the internet that claims he did and that is nationalfootballteams.com

--Thuglife99 (talk) 16:42, 27 September 2011 (UTC)[reply]

You just have to dig a little deeper and use logic. The key here is to find articles that were written between 2003 and 2005 when the player is said to have played for the Serbian club and the wikipedia entry did not even exist yet. Articles that were written like 5 years later or so and claim that he played for Nis likely got their information from nft or the wikipedia article itself.

To avoid confusion the player joined Celtic in October 2004.[15]

This article [16] from 2003 has him playing for Villa, so has this one [17] from a about year later. This is exactly the time span when he is said to have played in Serbia but he is twice listed as a Villa player.

This article from 2004 confirms that he joined Celtic from Villa and not from Nis. [18]. Same thing here [19]. Still no mention of him joining from Nis or having played for Nis at all. Same thing here. [20] All of his former clubs are mentioned. Except one. Odd...

Also his profile on weltfussball.de has no mention of him playing in Serbia either [21]

And if youre still not convinced: Just google Timothy Batabaire OFK Nis and set the custom range from 2003 to 2004.

This is just another case where a website (nft.com) makes up stuff or simply confuses players and everybody else (playerhistory) just copies it.

Nft makes up stats. I'm not talking about La Liga or the EPL but smaller leagues. Check Musa Otieno's profile on nft [24]. He made 10 apps in 92 and 27 in 93? Please... These countries haven't even kept records on their own national team since their formations. rsssf.com doesn't even have the final table for the 92 Kenyan season. But perhaps somebody at nft had a season ticket for AFC Leopards in 1992 lol.

--Thuglife99 (talk) 00:52, 27 September 2011 (UTC)[reply]

He was "perhaps" on loan, "maybe" in early 2004 but "maybe" not is what you are saying. That is the problem... If there are doubts why not just leave it out... You should apply the same standard I think.

LOL .. it can be a nightmare when trying to find information about lesser known Arabic players from countries who speak/write exclusively in Arabic (as opposed to say North African ones who also use French). For the player in question, never heard him and really there's tons of ways to spell his name, especially since Libya doesn't usually have a specific system to transliterate names. I googled his name in Arabic without the Kh. part (محمد منير عبدالسلام ) and didn't find anything with regards to a Libyan player, only an Egyptian inventor. I removed the Abdusalam part and added Libyan to it ("محمد عبدالسلام" ليبي) and still couldn't find anything. Interestingly, I managed to find a "Mohamed Abdussalam" in Ittihad Tripoli's CL squad for this season: [25] but not much more else. Anyways, if you remind me again tomorrow sometime (when I'm home), I can post a message on a Libyan football forum and see what kind of information I can get him. Let me know if you want me to do that. TonyStarks (talk) 04:19, 4 October 2011 (UTC)[reply]

The name can be any combination really, since all 3 names can be first or last name. Just looking at it though, I'd go out on a limb and say that his first name is "Mohamed Almonir" and last name is "Abdussalam". Sorry I couldn't be of too much help, cases like this are real tough.

I didn't follow Macedonian football back then but I find it hard to believe that Mario had 7 caps with Vardar at that time. I have never seen Mario Gjurovski affiliated with Vardar in any way so I don't know what source they used for that information that he has 7 caps. I'm with you, I don't think that information is right. It was probably a mistake.

Hello FkpCascais. Unfortunately, I think it's unlikely that the other users are willing to compromise on the use of Estonia in the infobox. Since it's only an infobox, I'm not sure it's worth arguing further. I would object more to a person who wanted to use DR Congo instead of Zaire, but Estonian SSR and Estonia are nearly the same. I agree that they seem to be trying to erase the Soviet Union from the infobox, but readers ought to be able to find out that Estonia was part of the Soviet Union during that time by following the Estonia link (and the text of the article should certainly indicate that the person was born in the Soviet Union). Honestly, I can't believe they are working so hard to keep a historical inaccuracy in the infobox, and I can't justify fighting them on it any longer.

That user who created those international caps lists does appear to have some great sources, but I've never talked with him and don't know him. As you said, it looks like he may have retired which is a shame.

Best regards. I think you have the infobox issue right, but it's probably best to work on other areas where the editors are more cooperative and friendly. I simply avoid articles on many of the former Soviet Republics because they are patrolled by nationalists of one side or another and I don't like fighting with them.

Hey man :-) Several editors have been labouring over Battle of Vukovar article to get it featured and it got promoted yesterday. Now that it's featured the idea is to get it on the main page on November 18, its 20th anniversary. But it seems that there's a point system for that and the chances of the article getting on the main page might be improved the article existed in 20 non-English language Wikipedias (there's a more detailed discussion at Talk:Battle of Vukovar#Next steps: a call for assistance). The article currently exists in 17 other Wikipedias but Portuguese is missing and I was wondering if you could start the article at pt.wikipedia? It doesn't have to be long, translating only the lead section of the English version or even its summary would be enough. (If you could do it for Spanish as well that would be awesome). All the best.

I link valid source here; in chapter 3. "Rape of Serbia" (A Book by Michael Lees) you can read: Lees now believes that Winston Churchill's decision to abandon Mihailovic and throw support to Tito was largely the result of disinformation spread by British Communists, and sympathizers in the secret services and other agencies which endorsed the reports, and an enthusiastic recommendation of British officers who had been duped by Tito

http://www.truthinmedia.org/Bulletins/tim91-2-1.html 3. "Rape of Serbia" (A Book by Michael Lees)

this book has a lot of reports on internet: read http://www.amazon.com/Rape-Serbia-British-Titos-1943-1944/dp/0151959102The author served as British liaison officer with the latter in 1943 and 1944. His memoir describes how Tito deceived Winston Churchill into believing Mihailovic was collaborating with the Germans, which resulted in the abrupt transfer of Allied aid from the Chetniks to the Partisans. The tragic upshot was that Tito then used Allied munitions against the Chetniks after the German retreat, launching an extermination campaign against thousands of rivals and potential enemies. The British prime minister, realizing too late his error in embracing Tito at the expense of Mihailovic, tried to intervene on the latter's behalf but was unable to prevent a Titoist court from convicting him of treason. Mihailovic was executed in 1946. Lees relates this grim story with unrestrained bitterness. His book is a powerful indictment of British wartime policy in the Balkans and an elegy for Yugoslav victims of Tito

other book focussed on disinformation: read http://www.amazon.com/Web-Disinformation-Churchills-Yugoslav-Blunder/dp/0151807043Martin provides much need insight into this poorly understood theatre of World War II - the Balkans. Using recently declassified British intelligence documents and radio transmission transcripts from the field, Martin builds a strong case for the defense of General Draza Mihailovich, the Serbian guerilla leader who was abandoned by the British in favour of the Communist leader Tito. British field documents show that Serbian Chetnik forces carried out large scale attacks against German and Croat Nazi units up to 1944 - long after they stopped getting Allied aid. Importantly, they continued rescuing downed Allied airmen, culminating in the rescue in June, 1944 of more than 500 US and British airmen who were evacuated by US Airforce aircraft from Serbia in an operation codenamed "Halyard" - the largest rescue in US Airforce history. All round a tremendous contribution to WWII history. I might add, that just last year, more than 50 years after the fact, the official British archives have admitted that Communist moles working for SOE (Special Operations Executive) manipulated and falsified field transcripts from the Serb Chetniks thereby resulting in official British support switching to Tito. Martin's thesis has been proven correct— Preceding unsigned comment added by 193.206.126.34 (talk) 17:22, 31 October 2011 (UTC)[reply]

During the mediation, we agreed to discuss two additional topics on the article talk page: 1) Ethnic conflict and terror tactics, and, 2) Collaboration. The former was completed some time ago. Nuujinn has now drafted a proposed section on the latter subject. I am contacting mediation participants to see if they wish to comment. I've seen your recent comments on the article talk page, but thought that you might want to comment on the new proposed section. The draft can be found here. Any comments would be most appreciated.

Greetings, I was hoping you could clear up the claim to notability of a few articles you created. At first glance, they all appear to fail WP:GNG and WP:NSPORT. They are:

• Zlatko Đorić
• Vladan Kujundžić
• Stefan Zogović
• Boris Savić

Thanks in advance, and best regards. Sir Sputnik (talk) 16:15, 1 December 2011 (UTC)[reply]

Well, Zlatko Đorić played with Banat in the 2006–07 Serbian SuperLiga, and before his club was named FK Budućnost Banatski Dvor playing in the top league in 2005-06 and 2003-04. As I am missing his stats for the entire period at the club, 1999-2007 (I only have them until 2003), I left them blanked.

Vladan Kujundžić fails, as he never played in Serbia in top league. He was playing with Banat which looked promising to return to top flight, however they failed and he left. My mistake.

Stefan Zogović is part of FK Vojvodina, a top league side, however he keeps on being loaned, so still fails notability.

And finally, Boris Savić was part of two top league sides, Red Star Belgrade and FK Rad, but failed to make any league appereance with any of them. He was part of Bosnian U21 team, and here are his numbers: [27]. He played with Swiss 1. Liga (2 app.) but I am not sure that makes him notable.

Anyway, most of this articles I created some time ago when I was not so familiarised with policies, but thank you for letting me know about them and please feel free to PROD them. Best regards, FkpCascais (talk) 17:51, 1 December 2011 (UTC)[reply]

No problem, drago mi je sto si pomagao.

Sorry for this dumb title of the subject. But anyways, producer just vandalized this page, [28] . Do you have any advice on how to not have nationalists ruining the page? What he did was vandalism and POV pushing. For example, what kind of joke is it to have a category as "Croatian Partisans" and not include that for most of the war their composition was mainly Serbian? At the same time, groups who contributed more and who founded the partisans, such as the Serbs and Montenegrins do not get their own section. How can this be neutral?

I want explain and maybe clear up misunderstandings away from the WP:Croatia page. The line "just view it as Serbian or Serbocroatian Latin" was not an expression of my personal views, it was an attempt at a bit of humour harking back to the previous arguments about the issue. I thought it would be taken in a light-hearted way, but obviously it was not. Also, I want to clear that I do not think "Serbian Latin" isn't used (it has to have a translation to Latin like every other script). It's hard to convey your thoughts in such a small space with limited characters, and I was trying to say that the official Serbian script uses Cyrillic, not Latin. I did not want to start anything negative with you over this. Regards. --Jesuislafete (talk) 20:12, 23 December 2011 (UTC)[reply]

Per this AE report you are topic banned from all articles, discussions, and other content related to the Balkans as outlined in the WP:ARBMAC decision, broadly construed across all namespaces, for six months. Any editing in this area can lead to blocks from editing. This is a highly disputed topic area and all editors are expected to refrain from tendentious editing in support of their side in such battleground disputes. I would suggest taking the break from the topic area as an opportunity to work in other areas of the project and improving collaboration with other editors. --WGFinley (talk) 05:14, 6 January 2012 (UTC)[reply]

I was not able to spend much time these last week, but why am I being topic banned? Are you sure you read all diffs and analised it all well? Can you point even one policy I don´t comply with? Please. FkpCascais (talk) 06:11, 6 January 2012 (UTC)[reply]

There's a consensus of admins on the AE report that a topic ban is appropriate, I outlined my review of the evidence submitted on the case page. --WGFinley (talk) 06:17, 6 January 2012 (UTC)[reply]

Where can I object this? I didn´t broke a single policy, I didn´t edit-warred while the other side did. FkpCascais (talk) 06:23, 6 January 2012 (UTC)[reply]

These were your review findings:

*Is in philosophical opposition to Direktor/Producer and frequently questions the credibility of sources though frequently without providing any of his/her own. Prime example: Talk:Yugoslav_Partisans#Content_dispute. FkpCascais pointed to this as example of violations by his opposition when all I can see is FkpCascais wants to remove sourced material in the article, the sources appear to be reliable to me (one of them is the BBC) but FkpCascais offers no sources to contradict those provided.

In light of these facts and prior sanctions I think a 90-day ARBMAC TBAN is in order.

Now, regarding the first point, we have been working with sources for 2 years now. If you notece, the users want to add an accusation of "ethnic cleansing" right in the lede section using a single BBC source. Such a heavy accusation cannot certainly be provided lede importance using only one non-scholar source without even mentioning the expression as such. This comes from an earlier discussion that you are not aware of, where these same concerns are expressed about the lack of wide-in-use description of the events as such by the scholar community (you can´t just find a source saying "cleansing" and turning it into a "the did ethnic cleansing" if the case is that scholars don´t agree about such a description).

Resumingly, I opposed, the other users took days to bring other sources, and once they did, the discussion came to an hault, with the other side having their text version in place, and me not edit-warring at any time. I discussed, the other users brought more sources, no one edit-warred; so where did I procede wrong?

Regarding the second point, that discussion is part of the wider discussion in order to bring balance into the article. The sources are already found in the article, so why should I bring them to talk-page? The other side was trying to remove the section, I opposed to the removal of sourced information, so where did I procede wrong here?

Regarding the third point, it is in my right to ask Jimbo about advice when I find myself in a situation where an admin is clearly providing phalse statements at a complain of mine. Am I being punished for that? Is there a policy saying I can´t ask for advice?

Regarding your fourth and last point, I am not "pushing heavily for Mediation" but for any kind of dispute resolution. Are you suggesting that is wrong? How? Perhaps edit-warring is more appropriate? Also notece that consensus building is done with two sides agreing, and by the time, I was the only one present against 3 users sharing the other POV.

Just FYI, in my two previous ARBMAC notifications, the first one was attributed to all participants, with me not doing anything out of policies. I even asked why I was being notified, and I remember well being said that it was not really important and just a notification given to all. At the second one, the one that got me a 6 montha 1RR limitation, DIREKTOR reported me without warning and while I didn´t even knew of events and didn´t even had a chance to defend myself, FPS closed the thread that way. Afterwords, at his talk page, FPS recognised that DIREKTOR had equally violated 3RR and edit-warred, however, I kept being punished, while the other side got away impune and laughing. I thought of complaining, but I didn´t bothered, and as you can see, I didn´t had the slightest difficulty in going trough 1RR (something that would have been hard if I was a "tendentious editor"). So, as you can see, the two previous notifications had a negative effect, and now I am further being punished, this time without even breaking a single policy... Also, how can you punish me if I didn´t even edited the articles, just discussed?

I am being provided with a too hard punishement. Would you please reconsider, otherwise could you please point me out how to procede, as I definitelly find this ban very unfair. FkpCascais (talk) 07:01, 6 January 2012 (UTC)[reply]

As I said, the case was summarized with a consensus of admins for the TBAN, the case has been open for some time and rehashing what was already on the AE report isn't going to be of a lot of use. It's you're right to go wherever you want but when you go to multiple venues at once that looks like and frequently is forum shopping, that's disruptive and is a violation of policy. Tendentious editing in a topic space governed by sanctions is also a violation of policy. Removing sourced information from an article without providing without providing sources that challenge and meet the burden of proof for restoration is also a violation of policy. You may wish to mediate with him but it requires the consent of all parties to mediate. Nobody expects you to edit war, one expects you to work for consensus and sometimes consensus is not in favor of one's own opinion. You can appeal your ban to WP:AE if you feel it was too harsh. I would suggest if you are going to appeal to keep your discussion about your own actions, contrition and avoidance of the WP:NOTTHEM nature of your appeal here. --WGFinley (talk) 15:07, 6 January 2012 (UTC)[reply]

First, I didn´t forum shop, as the issues were different at ANI (complain on edit-warring) and at Jimbo´s page (asked for advice on one admin´s specific behavior).

Where did I removed sourced info (diff)?

Where did I made tendentious editing (diff)?

If you could just unswer to me this questions I will be extremelly gratefull, so could know exactly for what am I defending myself.

Also, we just came from a long related mediation, where the discussions happend between me and the other users. These discussions are very much related and could be considered as the final stages of the mediation, now being transponded to other related articles, as it happend in this case. By removing me for 6 months from all discussions, you´re basically directly favouring the other side of this dispute as they will stay unopposed, and you´ll be giving a direct result to dispute itself without even being informed about the exact issues. Please consider this. I am willing to explain everything in detail and clarify whatever needs to be clarified. FkpCascais (talk) 18:40, 6 January 2012 (UTC)[reply]

Hey, remember when we discussed how players who have only played in the First League of Montenegro can't have their own articles because an obscure article from a long time ago tangentially called it an 'amateur league'? Well, I think I found a potentially useful loophole/point to make to speedy-deletion taggers. I've noticed that players who have played solely in the USL Premier Development League have their own articles, but nowhere in the league article does it state that it is a professional league. Which means it's not! Therefore, "amateur" league players (only to a certain degree in the concept of being 'amateur') have already been getting articles on wikipedia!

No, I'm not going to provide diffs. They were provided in the arb enforcement page. Two uninvolved admins concluded at the review that you violated ARBMAC. That's all there is to it. You can complain and protest all you want, in whatever venue you want, and demand that other people provide additional evidence all you want, but that's not how ARBMAC works- everyone is so sick of the constant fight over the macedonian articles that we just throw people out as soon as they start being a pain. No amount of wikilawyering and arguing that you technically didn't violate the letter of the rules is going to change that. Go edit something else- you have 4 months to go. --PresN 01:23, 1 March 2012 (UTC)[reply]

"You took the responsability of closing the thread" - look again, my name isn't "The Bushranger", who closed the thread. We're up to four admins who think that the topic ban in justified, and zero admins who think it should be overturned. I've also never said I was "fed up", so I'm not sure who you're quoting there. Feel free to continue to complain to me and everyone else you've ever met, as it's already clear you will, but ARBMAC is quite clear- one warning, and then any uninvolved admin can sanction you. And as far as I can see, you've had plenty of warnings, including a 1RR restriction, so WGFinley and EdJohnston were perfectly justified in topic banning you, and Bushranger and I are justified in agreeing with him - without providing any additional diffs. --PresN 06:06, 1 March 2012 (UTC)[reply]

Sorry for the confusion,boom" is my way of saying "voila" or "that's it." I'm more than happy to help you (perhaps "badgering" was a bit strong, sorry) but you need to try to understand what you've done wrong so that we can help. GiantSnowman 16:33, 2 March 2012 (UTC)[reply]

Regarding this:

1. Your statement is entirely inaccurate, your actions got you topic banned, not the actions of any admin.
2. If you went and read the ARBMAC decision you would find it does not just apply to editing in the article space, it applies to editing in the talk space and all other spaces as well. In fact, a great deal of that case revolved around behavior outside of the article space.
3. If you are going to appeal your ban then please, do so. Continuing to go on about it without appealing the decision is not going to help you get the ban reduced and may result in further sanctions, including blocking.

See? You never provide me one single diff where everyone can clerly see I have broke some policy. That user made a compilation of all my most polemical comments done on numerous discussions during the last couple of years. I was ironical in a couple of them, but if you see the context, you would understand the hard cincunstances in them. Even so, I don´t see even one policy being broken in any of them! He even used the excuse of me having football editing as hobbie, as if I was some football hooligan or something... Ridiculous. I don´t have much faith in AE or ARBCOM, as none good-faith was given to me at any point, but I rather feel cheated int he entire episode.

WGFinley, those discussions are tricky place. I entered into that specifical one without edit-waring or intervening into the article, but trying to archive consensus trough discussion. I participated at the discussion correctly, I analised the sources and pointed to related policies. When I had reasons to, I asked for help to administrators (isn´t this appropriate?). When I had reasons I complained. When things got out of hand, even with me disatisfied with the result as the other side edit-warred their unconsensual version, I still didn´t edit-warred neither I took any unconstructive action, but right the opposite, I walked away (!!!). And at the end, 2 weeks after that, and with the other side actually breaking FORUMSHOP by making successive reports against me, you decide to punish me with a half-year sanction??? Makes no sense... Aferwords, yes I had a mad-a-like tone towards you and EdJohnston, but you have to understand my possition too, you ignored completelly my positive actions. I was allways provided with further and further excuses... Please tell me why should I beleave this time I will be taken seriously if I appeal? Thank you.

I am not going to go back and dig up a bunch of diffs to cite to justify something you were banned by a consensus of admins on, has been reviewed again on several different noticeboards and not a single admin has said this ban was inappropriate.

Hi. Please see this and this. Can I, please see where that checkuser case was opened if you have link? What was a conclusion? PANONIAN 19:35, 25 March 2012 (UTC)[reply]

Yes, of course. That user has been 100% involved only in DIREKTOR related edits ever since he appeared, and has been all but a newcomer in my view. He presents himself as "Australian" (as if unrelated to Balkans subjects) but has been almost exclusively involved in articles dealing with the subjects where the Croatian and Serbian POV differ (with clear inclination towards the first one). It was quite clear to me from the begining that we were not dealing with a editor claiming to be (a newcomer), but unfortunatelly I never gave much importance to sockpuppetry before, so that is why it took me a while to make a SPI report on him (and my first and only ever SPI report ever on WP), here: [30]. Direktor reacted agressively and did his best to avoid the checkuser to be done, and the admin who took care of the report denied me the right to make a check on him. The reason provided to me basically makes no sense, as the admin refuses to make a check because "I want to block an user" (???)... A bit later I was topic-baned basically without one single diff presenting any breaking of any policy on my behalve with the excuse of FORUMSHOPPING for reporting them (Direktor&Peacemaker67)... They had been overprotected by some admins for some strange reasons, and there are possible off-wiki pressures and lobbing being made in all disputes they are involved in.

Perhaps you have something more to say in my appeal to the admin regarding this case: http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/User_talk:HelloAnnyong#Possible_sockpuppetry PANONIAN 21:34, 25 March 2012 (UTC)[reply]
