Hello and welcome to Wikipedia! Hope you like it here, and stick around.

Here are some tips to help you get started:

• To sign your posts (on talk pages, for example) use the '~' symbol. To insert just your name, type ~~~ (3 tildes), or, to insert your name and timestamp, use ~~~~ (4 tildes).
• Try the Tutorial, and feel free to experiment in the test area.
• If you need help, post a question at the Help Desk
• Follow the Wikipedia:Simplified Ruleset
• Eventually, you might want to read the Manual of Style and Policies and Guidelines.
• Remember Wikipedia:Neutral point of view
• Explore, be bold in editing pages, and, most importantly, have fun!

Good luck!

Welcome!

If you are interested in Russia-related themes, you may want to check out the Russian Portal, particularly the Portal:Russia/New article announcements and Portal:Russia/Russia-related Wikipedia notice board. You may even want to add these boards to your watchlist.

Civility

Please see Wikipedia's no personal attacks policy. Comment on content, not on the contributor; personal attacks damage the community and deter users. Note that continued personal attacks may lead to blocks for disruption. Please stay cool and keep this in mind while editing. Thank you. Edit summaries like reverted edits by a nazi sympathizer are unacceptable abakharev 05:20, 28 June 2006 (UTC)

Relax

Calm down! "Nazi Symphatisator"? "Sily"? You will get blocked is that what you want??

"Nazi Sympathizer" was two years ago. -YMB29 (talk) 01:13, 14 August 2008 (UTC)

Я тоже Русский, и согласен с тобой! Ну чтобы выжить в Википедии надо искать нетральность. Ну выругаешь ты его, и что? Тебя блокируют нахрен и все, он будет радоваться! Нужно тебе это?? Культурно спорь, даже не с культурными людьми. Это всего лишь Википедия. Спокойнее! Знаешь сколько тут западников которые с радостью заблакируют всех Руских и привратят Википедию в свой агитационный ларек? Ну дашь им причину блокировать тебя! Кому от этого легче станет? Спокойнее!

Hope you agree on it. Kostan1 (talk) 11:28, 21 August 2008 (UTC)

I owe you an apology

I'm sorry for taking you as the POV pusher in the article and for speaking to you with rudness. The reverts that Biophys just did, while at the same time you chose the talk page to bring up the points you don't agree with clearly showed me who is the POV pusher. I'm sorry. Kostan1 (talk) 13:43, 22 August 2008 (UTC)

Don't worry you were not rude. I don't know what we are going to do with Biophys; talking to him is like banging your head against the wall... -YMB29 (talk) 00:44, 23 August 2008 (UTC)

P.S. Please bring a link saying the NKVD Order No. 00689 lasted only for two years. Kostan1 (talk) 13:59, 22 August 2008 (UTC)

I linked the article in my version and on the talk page. NKVD Order No. 00689 changed NKVD Order No. 00486. -YMB29 (talk) 00:44, 23 August 2008 (UTC)

A barnstar (your first?)

		The Original Barnstar
		For helping to bring the Human rights in the Soviet Union to an NPOV, for being civil and using the talk page for things you don't agree with, for reverting a user who clearly pushes his NPOV into the nutral version, even though you yourself don't agree with many things in it. In other words, for maturity. Continue to be a great user! Kostan1 (talk) 11:00, 23 August 2008 (UTC)

Let's talk?

Hi YMB29, maybe we should talk a little instead of edit waring? Is that you who edits in Russian WP as Deerhunter?Biophys (talk) 01:50, 6 October 2008 (UTC)

No it is not me.

If you want to finally talk then I am waiting for you to do so on the article's talk page. -YMB29 (talk) 01:58, 6 October 2008 (UTC)

Maybe later. I just wonder: you are doing almost nothing but reverts in a single article for the entire month. Do not you have anything better to do? You apparently came here from Russian WP. So, what are your real interests?Biophys (talk) 02:53, 6 October 2008 (UTC)

I am not from Russian WP.

Look at what you are doing in that article. I can't add anything to the article because of your senseless reverting. If you can't discuss, then maybe you should stay away instead of always reverting. -YMB29 (talk) 16:17, 6 October 2008 (UTC)

Perhaps it would be best if we both edited something else. But this is up to you. Regards,Biophys (talk) 18:21, 6 October 2008 (UTC)

For some time maybe, but any future changes or reverts will have to be explained if asked. -YMB29 (talk) 18:49, 7 October 2008 (UTC)

Arbitration case regarding the Eastern European mailing list

The Arbitration Committee has passed a motion to open a case to investigate allegations surrounding a private Eastern European mailing list. The contents of the motion can be viewed here.

You have been named as one of the parties to this case. Please take note of the explanations given in italics at the top of that section; if you have any further questions about the list of parties, please feel free to contact me on my talk page.

The Committee has explicitly requested that evidence be presented within one week of the case opening; ie. by September 25. Evidence can be presented on the evidence subpage of the case; please ensure that you follow the Committee instructions regarding the responsible and appropriate submission of evidence, as set out in the motion linked previously, should you choose to present evidence.

Please further note that, due to the exceptional nature of this case (insofar as it centers on the alleged contents of a private mailing list), the Committee has decided that the normal workshop format will not be used. The notice near the top of the cases' workshop page provides a detailed explanation of how it will be used in this case.

Arbcom clerk warning

You have recently engaged in a series of posts on ArbCom pages which contained highly charged assertions and hence breached the specific guidelines on user conduct handed down by ArbCom concerning the EEML case. You are thus receiving a first and final warning. Any further misconduct will result in a ban from the relevant ArbCom pages until the conclusion of the EEML case (except in direct response to an ArbCom question). Violation of that ban will result in blocking. Manning (talk) 23:29, 29 October 2009 (UTC)

Read, read, read....

You have very certain opinions in the talk page of the Winter War. I see you are interested in Finnish-Russian wars, so I suggest you read some books written of these subjects. It would help as all, as there would be a necessity to explain military history basics. As the Finnish historian Timo Vihavainen said a week ago in an interviews, there is not so much different view of historical event between Finnish and Russian historians. Only some marginal Stalinists (he used the word, I would use some softer title) still dispute with historians. For a start, you could watch television documentry (spoken Russian, with Finnish subtitles) by Russian Televisio Channel in You Tube [2]. It has 10 episodes, total about 1 hour. Peltimikko (talk) 21:22, 6 November 2009 (UTC)

All those who don't share the Finnish view are Stalinists...

Anyway, thanks for the link, but what was the point of this message? I am not the one who is making POVed, uninformed edits or comments. -YMB29 (talk) 00:08, 8 November 2009 (UTC)

I am sorry if I gave impression of that only the Finnish is right. Opening of the Moscow Archieves in the 1990s has generally backed the Finnish view of the Winter War, but also deepends our understanding of the war. However, as I have wrote in the Continuation War's talk page, the Finnish historians have also have to changed their earlier views. For example, earlier the Finnish histography saw the Continuation War as a separate war between Finland and the USSR, but in 1990s and especially in 2000s, historians, especially younger, see the war and an ally with Germany against the USSR. Peltimikko (talk) 08:02, 9 November 2009 (UTC)

Well yes I agree that there is a better understanding now. However, there is still a lot that can be debated and subject to different interpretations. Are the Finnish archives open like the former Soviet ones? -YMB29 (talk) 15:25, 9 November 2009 (UTC)

The Finnish archives are located in "Arkistolaitos" [3] (trivia: before 2008 there was the War Archives (Sota-arkisto), but became a part of bigger The National Archives Service (=Arkistolaitos)). Generally speaking the Finnish archives has been open for years, especially after the Soviet Union collapse, but there is an excetion: a couple of years ago the Finnish Defence Forces release couple of banned photos which can be seen in Commons (they were either too cruel or politically incorrect). Peltimikko (talk) 23:14, 9 November 2009 (UTC)

Ok, thanks for the info. -YMB29 (talk) 15:44, 10 November 2009 (UTC)

This arbitration case has been closed, and the final decision may be viewed at the link above.

• User:Piotrus resigned the administrator tools during the case proceedings and may only seek to regain adminship by a new request for adminship or by request to the Arbitration Committee.
• User:Piotrus is banned for three months. At the conclusion of his ban, a one year topic ban on articles about Eastern Europe, their talk pages, and any related process discussion, widely construed, shall take effect.
• User:Digwuren is banned for one year. He is directed to edit Wikipedia from only a single user account, and advise the Arbitration Committee of the name of the account that he will use. Should he not advise the committee by the end of the one year ban, he will remain indefinitely banned until a single account is chosen.
• User:Digwuren is placed on a one year topic ban on articles about Eastern Europe, their talk pages, and any related process discussion, widely construed. This shall take effect following the expiration of both above mentioned bans.
• The following users are topic banned from articles about Eastern Europe, their associated talk pages, and any process discussion about same, widely construed, for one year:

• User:Biruitorul, User:Dc76, User:Martintg, User:Miacek, User:Radeksz, User:Vecrumba, User:Tymek

• User:Jacurek is topic banned from articles about Eastern Europe, their associated talk pages, and any process discussion about same, widely construed, for six months.
• User:Tymek is strongly admonished for having shared his account password. He is directed to keep his account for his own exclusive use, and not to allow any other person to use it under any circumstance.
• The editors sanctioned above (Piotrus, Digwuren, Martintg, Tymek, Jacurek, Radeksz, Dc76, Vecrumba, Biruitorul, Miacek) are prohibited from commenting on or unnecessarily interacting with Russavia on any page of Wikipedia, except for purposes of legitimate and necessary dispute resolution.
• All the participants to the mailing list are strongly admonished against coordinating on-wiki behavior off-wiki and directed to keep discussion of editing and dispute resolution strictly on wiki and in public. All editors are reminded that the editorial process and dispute resolution must take place on Wikipedia itself, using the article talk pages and project space for this purpose. No discussion held off-wiki can lead to a valid consensus, the basis of our editorial process. Off-wiki coordination is likely to lead to echo chambers where there is a false appearance of neutrality and consensus.

Editing restrictions and ongoing discussions

I'm sorry to hear you have been banned from editing or rather participating to the ongoing discussions on the Continuation War and the related topics. I'm rather dubious that making an appeal for getting you 'rights' to at least participate in the ongoing talk page discussions would do much good after reading the arbitration decisions. Though we have been mainly disagreeing on topics and occasionally i felt nearly like coming into blows that is pretty much exactly what should be expected when discussing a contested topic with able opponent.

I could still make an appeal for at least talk page rights or rather rights to continue and finish the currently ongoing discussions if you think that would be any of any help. Not sure where and how to do it though - I'm not really familiar with wiki arbitration system. - Wanderer602 (talk) 16:20, 31 May 2010 (UTC)

Thanks for your concern. Yes even though we had intense arguments we could still come to an agreement and compromise (which was impossible with that other user).

Looks like the decision won't be changed now. Don't know why they made it; I guess they were in a rush to close the case... I asked about posting on talk pages and continuing the discussion, but this is not allowed also.

In a couple of months I can ask for a reconsideration of the topic ban. -YMB29 (talk) 20:11, 1 June 2010 (UTC)

Mediation Cabal

Hi YMB29! Sorry for the few days' gap in discussion on the dispute resolution noticeboard. I've gone ahead and started a thread at the Mediation Cabal about Battle of Tali-Ihantala to get the ball rolling. The mediation page is located at Wikipedia:Mediation Cabal/Cases/24 October 2011/Battle of Tali-Ihantala. You don't need to do anything just yet - the next stage is finding a mediator. If you want to fill out more details about the dispute itself then that's fine, but there shouldn't be any discussion there just yet. Hopefully we can all find a speedy and peaceful resolution to all the issues there. All the best — Mr. Stradivarius ^♫ 14:07, 24 October 2011 (UTC)

Hi there, hope everything is going well for you. I have decided to mediate the MedCab case myself, if that is ok by you. There are some ground rules I've made which I would like agreement to - you can find them at the mediation page linked to above. Thanks — Mr. Stradivarius ^♫ 05:33, 26 October 2011 (UTC)

Ok thanks for deciding to mediate the case. -YMB29 (talk) 15:00, 26 October 2011 (UTC)

Hi again YMB29. About these tags and these tags - sorry, but I think they are best left out for the duration of the mediation. I can appreciate that you might want to warn readers about the things being disputed, but because of the number of statements under dispute, I think this is better done by the neutrality dispute banner right at the top of the page. The banner at the top of the page is a big bright warning, and should be enough to make the vast majority of readers view the article with a critical eye. If either of you are still adding or removing tags while the mediation is ongoing, however, it runs the risk of making the dispute more about the tags than the actual content. Please understand that this is not making any judgements about the tagged statements themselves, but that it purely procedural. I hope you can consider my opinion here, and I trust that you will refrain from more tagging while we are in mediation. Best regards — Mr. Stradivarius ^♫ 02:43, 29 October 2011 (UTC)

Formal mediation has been requested

The Mediation Committee has received a request for formal mediation of the dispute relating to "Continuation War". As an editor concerned in this dispute, you are invited to participate in the mediation. Mediation is a voluntary process which resolves a dispute over article content by facilitation, consensus-building, and compromise among the involved editors. After reviewing the request page, the formal mediation policy, and the guide to formal mediation, please indicate in the "party agreement" section whether you agree to participate. Because requests must be responded to by the Mediation Committee within seven days, please respond to the request by 4 September 2012.

Discussion relating to the mediation request is welcome at the case talk page. Thank you.
Message delivered by MediationBot (talk) on behalf of the Mediation Committee. 19:00, 28 August 2012 (UTC)

Request for mediation accepted

The request for formal mediation of the dispute concerning Continuation War, in which you were listed as a party, has been accepted by the Mediation Committee. The case will be assigned to an active mediator within two weeks, and mediation proceedings should begin shortly thereafter. Proceedings will begin at the case information page, Wikipedia:Requests for mediation/Continuation War, so please add this to your watchlist. Formal mediation is governed by the Mediation Committee and its Policy. The Policy, and especially the first two sections of the "Mediation" section, should be read if you have never participated in formal mediation. For a short guide to accepted cases, see the "Accepted requests" section of the Guide to formal mediation. You may also want to familiarise yourself with the internal Procedures of the Committee.

As mediation proceedings begin, be aware that formal mediation can only be successful if every participant approaches discussion in a professional and civil way, and is completely prepared to compromise. Please contact the Committee if anything is unclear.

Please

Could you please stop repeatedly calling me "misleading" at noticeboard [4],[5]? I am not. The Soviet/Russian "candidate" degree in humanities is usually counted at best as M.S., not PhD (in US). These guys have to enroll again in PhD programs in US and spend a few years to earn their real PhD degrees. I also said "deportation" (singular). Thanks, My very best wishes (talk) 20:30, 3 September 2012 (UTC)

You did not specify which deportation.

Candidate of Historical Sciences is equivalent of a PhD in history. I don't know where you get that it is like a master's degree. -YMB29 (talk) 22:32, 3 September 2012 (UTC)

This depends on discretion of employer (e.g. university). They may ask to provide a formal certification of your diploma (there are organizations in US who do such certification). As far as I know, the result will be that a Russian "candidate" of History or political sciences is equal to M.S. But that may depend on specific organization in Russia that gave such degree (not VAK of course, but History department of MSU, for example). The programs and requirements in Russian and US PhD programs in humanities are very different. That's the problem. My very best wishes (talk) 00:48, 4 September 2012 (UTC)

There may be exceptions, but generally it is considered equal to a PhD.

If you have evidence that Asmolov is not qualified as a historian, present them. -YMB29 (talk) 02:15, 4 September 2012 (UTC)

I am not a historian myself. So you might wish to read this lecture by Doctor Miller (this is a much higher degree than "candidate", right?). Here is what he thinks:

"Исаев и Дюков. Дюков очень интересный персонаж – можете набрать его в «Википедии», найдете о нем целую статью. Александр Дюков – директор фонда Историческая память. Молодой человек, где-то ему 30 с небольшим, окончил, кажется, Историко-архивный, никогда с тех пор по профессии не работал. До недавнего времени. Создал фонд и где-то по три-четыре книжки в год сейчас издает. Откуда фонд финансируется, остается догадываться.

Я успел прочитать две книжки. Первая книжка посвящена политике УПА – Украинской повстанческой армии в отношении евреев. Книжка по содержанию более или менее пристойная. Но тут как бы совпадение интенций и исторической правды получается. Потому что ему важно было показать, что УПА плохо обходилась с евреями. Действительно, плохо обходилась. Что в этой книжке бросается в глаза, так это большое количество материалов из архивов ФСБ, которые, как отмечается, впервые вводятся в научный оборот. Как он их получил? Надо спросить у мемориальцев, как они получают документы из ФСБ. Наверное, это обычное и простое дело.

Now he tells about the book "The Great War Slandered" by Dyukov:

... Эта книга – отповедь клеветникам, опровержение самых грязных, самых лживых мифов о Великой Отечественной войне, распространяемых врагами России».

"И вот в такой стилистике вся эта книжка и написана, из чего вы можете примерно заключить, что это за человек. Итак, вот такой фонд, вот такой историк, которого Данилин называет любителем. Какие издательства издают его книжки? - «Европа», «Regnum» «Эксмо». Про них тоже можно кое-что сказать. «Regnum» возглавляет Колеров, который служил в администрации президента, «Европа» – это Павловский и его центр."

Finally, Dr. Miller asks:

"Как вы думаете, писания Дюкова кто-нибудь примет всерьез за рубежами нашего отечества? Вот мы смеемся над тем, что публикует украинский Институт народной памяти? Смеемся. И заслуженно. И они так же будут смеяться над тем, что публикует Дюков." My very best wishes (talk) 03:35, 4 September 2012 (UTC)
