Roman the Great[edit]

You recently created the article Roman the Great. I did a litel cleanup on it. I have some questions and comments.

Before the birth date you listed "a." Did you mean this to stand for "about"? the wikipedia standard is to use "c." for circa. Dit it apply to the birth date only or to both dates.

You wrote "Roman Mstyslavych was reputed by victory hikes against Polovtsi in 1197-1198, 1201 and 1204". I don't know what this means -- did he defeat the Polovtsi, or was rumored to ahve doe so, or did he gain reputation for doing so, or what?

You wrote "He lived mostly in peace with Hungary and Poland, won uneasy neighbours." this doesn't make sense as written do you mean that his realtions with Hungary and Poland were uneasy, although mostly peaceful?

Note that I put the alternate form of his name in bold. this is the wikipedia standard.

Note that I removed the links to years. See Wikipedia:Manual of Style (dates and numbers)#Date formatting. Links to dates are mostly only useful when they are to full dates, not just years.

Note that I added {{royal-stub}}. Please add a proper stub tag to short articles. see WP:STUB for more info.

Please feel fre to leave me a msg on my talk page with any questions. DES ^(talk) 08:03, 14 August 2005 (UTC)[reply]

Thank you very much for your resposne to me about this article, and for your fuirther significant exapansion and improvement of it. I have another question:

You refer to "hikes" and to "victory hikes". Do these mean "marches" or "attacks" or "assults"? Is a "victory hike" a "victorious assault" or "successful attack"? If not, what do you mean by this term? I have generally seen "hike" used in english to eman a pleasnt walk by one or a few people, undertaken for sport or pleasure through more or less wild or natural areas. I don't think this is the sense in which you are using the word. Please help me understand. DES ^(talk) 15:50, 14 August 2005 (UTC)[reply]

You wrote: Hike: I mean "a victorious campaign" ! Hike = campaign in my text. Sorry for my bad English language ! :)

Not a problem. I wanted to amke sure of your meaning so i didn't intorduce inaccuaracy into the article. Thank you for contributing when english is not your native language.

By the way, you can sign your msgs with four tildas, like this ~~~~. This will be automatically converted into a link to your user page, and the date and time. DES ^(talk) 16:18, 14 August 2005 (UTC)[reply]

UA/RU get-togethers at Wikipedia[edit]

Hi, Bogatyr! And welcome. You might be interested to check out the current WP portals for these countries. Ukraine portal is located at Wikipedia:Wikiportal/Ukraine. Also, take a note at two notice boards which a parts of the portal: Wikipedia:Wikiportal/Ukraine/New article announcements and Wikipedia:Wikiportal/Ukraine/Ukraine-related Wikipedia notice board, with the latter being for announcements other than new articles. In similar fashion the Russia Portal (Wikipedia:Wikiportal/Russia) and its similar boards at Wikipedia:Wikiportal/Russia/New article announcements and Wikipedia:Wikiportal/Russia/Russia-related Wikipedia notice board are worth to be added to your watchlist. Adding all four is probably a good idea. Feel free to contact me for any reason. Пока! --Irpen 16:26, August 14, 2005 (UTC)

Valentyna Shevchenko[edit]

Could you please note what was the original page for the Shevchenko's bio? Even if the page is not online anymore we can often find it through web.archive.org and list it as a source. See for instance the ref #8 (Mariana Hausleitner) in Rumanization#Notes and references. Thanks, --Irpen 20:04, 5 January 2007 (UTC)[reply]

Unspecified source for Image:Bandera.png[edit]

Thanks for uploading Image:Bandera.png. I noticed that the file's description page currently doesn't specify who created the content, so the copyright status is unclear. If you did not create this file yourself, then you will need to specify the owner of the copyright. If you obtained it from a website, then a link to the website from which it was taken, together with a restatement of that website's terms of use of its content, is usually sufficient information. However, if the copyright holder is different from the website's publisher, then their copyright should also be acknowledged.

As well as adding the source, please add a proper copyright licensing tag if the file doesn't have one already. If you created/took the picture, audio, or video then the {{GFDL-self}} tag can be used to release it under the GFDL. If you believe the media meets the criteria at Wikipedia:Fair use, use a tag such as {{non-free fair use in|article name}} or one of the other tags listed at Wikipedia:Image copyright tags#Fair use. See Wikipedia:Image copyright tags for the full list of copyright tags that you can use.

If you have uploaded other files, consider checking that you have specified their source and tagged them, too. You can find a list of files you have uploaded by following this link. Unsourced and untagged images may be deleted one week after they have been tagged, as described on criteria for speedy deletion. If the image is copyrighted under a non-free license (per Wikipedia:Fair use) then the image will be deleted 48 hours after 10:06, 25 June 2007 (UTC). If you have any questions please ask them at the Media copyright questions page. Thank you. Liftarn 10:06, 25 June 2007 (UTC)[reply]

Your account will be renamed[edit]

Hello,

The developer team at Wikimedia is making some changes to how accounts work, as part of our on-going efforts to provide new and better tools for our users like cross-wiki notifications. These changes will mean you have the same account name everywhere. This will let us give you new features that will help you edit and discuss better, and allow more flexible user permissions for tools. One of the side-effects of this is that user accounts will now have to be unique across all 900 Wikimedia wikis. See the announcement for more information.

Unfortunately, your account clashes with another account also called Bogatyr. To make sure that both of you can use all Wikimedia projects in future, we have reserved the name Bogatyr~enwiki that only you will have. If you like it, you don't have to do anything. If you do not like it, you can pick out a different name. If you think you might own all of the accounts with this name and this message is in error, please visit Special:MergeAccount to check and attach all of your accounts to prevent them from being renamed.

Your account will still work as before, and you will be credited for all your edits made so far, but you will have to use the new account name when you log in.

Sorry for the inconvenience.

Yours,
Keegan Peterzell
Community Liaison, Wikimedia Foundation

This account has been renamed as part of single-user login finalisation. If you own this account you can log in using your previous username and password for more information. If you do not like this account's new name, you can choose your own using this form after logging in: Special:GlobalRenameRequest. -- Keegan (WMF) (talk)

ArbCom elections are now open![edit]

Hi,
You appear to be eligible to vote in the current Arbitration Committee election. The Arbitration Committee is the panel of editors responsible for conducting the Wikipedia arbitration process. It has the authority to enact binding solutions for disputes between editors, primarily related to serious behavioural issues that the community has been unable to resolve. This includes the ability to impose site bans, topic bans, editing restrictions, and other measures needed to maintain our editing environment. The arbitration policy describes the Committee's roles and responsibilities in greater detail. If you wish to participate, you are welcome to review the candidates' statements and submit your choices on the voting page.
