Please note we have two functioning userboxes:

Substitute: {{User WikiProject Poland}}


Substitute: {{User WPMILHIST Polish military history task force}}


There is also a Portal:Poland/Welcome message box that can be used to notify new users about this noticeboard and our related projects. Just slap {{subst:Portal:Poland/Welcome}}--~~~~ on their usertalkpage - it has its own heading.

This is a notice to let you know about Article alerts, a fully-automated subscription-based news delivery system designed to notify WikiProjects and Taskforces when articles are entering Articles for deletion, Requests for comment, Peer review and other workflows (full list). The reports are updated on a daily basis, and provide brief summaries of what happened, with relevant links to discussion or results when possible. A certain degree of customization is available; WikiProjects and Taskforces can choose which workflows to include, have individual reports generated for each workflow, have deletion discussion transcluded on the reports, and so on. An example of a customized report can be found here.

If you are already subscribed to Article Alerts, it is now easier to report bugs and request new features. We are also in the process of implementing a "news system", which would let projects know about ongoing discussions on a wikipedia-wide level, and other things of interest. The developers also note that some subscribing WikiProjects and Taskforces use the display=none parameter, but forget to give a link to their alert page. Your alert page should be located at "Wikipedia:PROJECT-OR-TASKFORCE-HOMEPAGE/Article alerts". Questions and feedback should be left at Wikipedia talk:Article alerts.

Unreferenced living people articles bot

User:DASHBot/Wikiprojects provides a list, updated daily, of unreferenced living people articles (BLPs) related to your project. There has been a lot of discussion recently about deleting these unreferenced articles, so it is important that these articles are referenced.

The unreferenced articles related to your project can be found at >>>Wikipedia:WikiProject Poland/Unreferenced BLPs<<<

If you do not want this wikiproject to participate, please add your project name to this list.

Thank you.

Update: Wikipedia:WikiProject Poland/Unreferenced BLPs has been created. This list, which is updated by User:DASHBot/Wikiprojects daily, will allow your wikiproject to quickly identify unreferenced living person articles.
There maybe no or few articles on this new Unreferenced BLPs page. To increase the overall number of articles in your project with another bot, you can sign up for User:Xenobot_Mk_V#Instructions.
If you have any questions or concerns, visit User talk:DASHBot/Wikiprojects. Okip 00:05, 28 March 2010 (UTC)[reply]

Voivodeship & provinces

After making this edit (changing "a [[Voivodeships of Poland|voivodeship]], or [[province]], in..." into "a [[Voivodeships of Poland|voivodeship]] ([[Administrative divisions of Poland|province]]) in...") it ocurred to me that to establish a standard format for all these articles a short discussion would be better than unilateral action. :-)

So, would "a [[Voivodeships of Poland|voivodeship]] ([[Administrative divisions of Poland|province]]) in..." be fine for everyone ? - Best, Ev (talk) 21:14, 30 March 2010 (UTC)[reply]

I have begun to use the "Voivodeship (province)" format in articles (example). If nobody objects, I will implement it for the articles on the voivodeships themselves soon. Best, Ev (talk) 14:09, 5 April 2010 (UTC)[reply]

What is the logic of the list?Xx236 (talk) 12:58, 1 April 2010 (UTC)[reply]

Almost nothing about the period after 1972.Xx236 (talk) 09:45, 2 April 2010 (UTC)[reply]

Feel free to expand the content then. - Darwinek (talk) 11:06, 2 April 2010 (UTC)[reply]

Volunteers?

As most of you know, Piotrus used to perform a lot of tasks related to this WikiProject. For example, he would monitor new Poland-related articles and, where appropriate, nominate them for CSD or PROD, add applicable clean-up tags, or nominate them for DYK. You can find a more complete list of Piotrus's responsibilities here.

The purpose of this message is to ask whether anybody is willing to help the WikiProject by taking on some (or all) of the work that Piotrus used to do. I know this question comes up frequently, but currently nobody is doing them, so I thought I'd ask again. Thank you. — Malik Shabazz Talk/Stalk 00:51, 4 April 2010 (UTC)[reply]

I am routinely checking out new Poland-related articles. - Darwinek (talk) 12:00, 4 April 2010 (UTC)[reply]

Prior to Piotrus being banned, I offered to take over some of his work. Things seemed to be moving in the right direct when in February I my target for number of edits. Sadly as I feared my other Polish related projects require more time and I have fallen away last month. I previously raised the idea of asking for Piotrus to help me but can’t in good faith ask if I am not going to be able to do the work. Can I suggest a group appeal as unless someone does the tasks Piotrus did in the past, things will quickly run away from us? Jniech (talk) 12:17, 4 April 2010 (UTC)[reply]

How can we get Piotrus restored to his former activities and competencies? Nihil novi (talk) 13:14, 4 April 2010 (UTC)[reply]

We would make a arbitration request amendment regarding Piotr Konieczny aka Prokonsul Piotrus. Please see my talk page for some previous discussion. Jniech (talk) 15:33, 4 April 2010 (UTC)[reply]

Thank you, Darwinek. I wasn't aware that you were reviewing the new articles.
In terms of Piotrus, I'd like to follow up on Jniech's suggestion and make an appeal to ArbCom to allow Piotrus to assist us with some of the "housekeeping" tasks he did in the past—unless you feel that would be stepping on your toes, Darwinek. I modified the draft that Jniech started. You can see it at User:Malik Shabazz/Piotrus. Feel free to edit it if you'd like. — Malik Shabazz Talk/Stalk 23:46, 4 April 2010 (UTC)[reply]
I think it's a great idea. I am watching new Polish articles, though I am not tagging and elaborating them so thorougly as Piotrus did. Bringing back his cleanup abilities would be of great help to this project. I endorse your statement, well phrased by the way. - Darwinek (talk) 07:18, 5 April 2010 (UTC)[reply]
Also support. The only change I would suggest is about my part. The reason I didn’t ask immediately was I felt someone had to try. I think the appeal should reference this. Perhaps the following would be useful.
When Piotrus was blocked, User:Jniech volunteered to take on some of those responsibilities. Jniech made a good faith effort but for a variety of reasons has been unable to continually maintain the necessary edits. I have asked for assistance, but none of the other WikiProject Poland members have volunteered to step in. Jniech (talk) 09:28, 6 April 2010 (UTC)[reply]

Are there any Polish reading editors who are able to improve this article? As the President of Poland was amongst those killed there are likely to be many Polish sources available. Mjroots (talk) 10:16, 10 April 2010 (UTC)[reply]

Tragedy

Very sad day! Condolences. M.K. (talk) 10:25, 10 April 2010 (UTC)[reply]

My deepest condolences to your country. I was shocked to see the news this morning. Such a tragedy. SO many top politicians too. Dr. Blofeld White cat 11:37, 10 April 2010 (UTC)[reply]

Stay strong, good people of Poland. My condolences. --Vejvančický (talk) 19:00, 10 April 2010 (UTC)[reply]

Jan Dzierzon

Imie i nazwisko Dzierzona zostalo zmieniona na Johann Dzierzon, to jest pisownia niemiecka. Britanica podaje Jan Dzierżoń (http://www.britannica.com/EBchecked/topic/175400/Jan-Dzierzon) i tak powinno byc. Rowniez tu (http://bees.library.cornell.edu/cgi/t/text/text-idx?c=bees;idno=5017629) angielskie tlumaczenie pracy Dzierzona podaje Dzierżon, Jan. Czy skontaktowales sie z museum w Kluczborku, albo przeczytales dowody i fotokopie w podanych pracach Brozka, Gladysza i ks. Mazaka? Pomijanie zrodel polskich jest niedopuszczalne. Ci ktorzy chca zmieniac artykul powinni uznac wage zrodel polskich wage a nie lawirowac na drugorzednych przekladach i niepelnych zrodlach. Podane tez sa wspolczesne artykuly w prasie polskiej i napisane przez Polakow. Trzeba je wniesc do tekstu. Niech chociaz bedzie widoczne ze spoleczenstwo polskie ma silne zdanie na ten temat. Podaje Ci e-mail jezeli chcesz powaznie pracowac bez udzialu szpiegow: erudra@hotmail.com. --Soujdspo (talk) 22:31, 11 April 2010 (UTC)



Bierz zawsze pod uwage ze: 1) w okresie Bismarck'a zniemczano imiona celowo 2) Poszukiwania liczbowe zapisu imion na internecie sa falszywka - autorzy wtedy i dzisiaj powtarzaja to co zostalo zniemczone i wprowadzone w pismie, clowo, przez nieuwage lub niewiedze. Jedyna droga czy jego imie powinno byc pisane Jahann czy Jan jest stwierdzenie ze Dzierzon uwazal sie za Polaka i kultywowal polskos, i tak jest zgodnie z dokumentami opisanymi w pracach Brozka, Gladysza i ks. Mazaka etc. --Soujdspo (talk) 02:01, 12 April 2010 (UTC) --Soujdspo (talk) 02:41, 12 April 2010 (UTC)[reply]
