Historical demographics of Jewry in Poland
[edit]Thank you for the interesting and referenced additions ([1]). If "The city of Lwów (now in Ukraine) had the third largest Jewish population in Poland", and if Łódź had more, would the second largest be Wilno (now Vilnius, Lithuania)? --Piotr Konieczny aka Prokonsul Piotrus| talk 16:38, 31 October 2008 (UTC)
Pogroms in Israel
[edit]I invite you to http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Talk:Pogrom#Pogroms_in_Israel to discuss your position that such mention belongs in the article GZee (talk)
References British Raj
[edit]Thanks for your edits to epidemics in the British Raj. The references look good too. It will help, though, if you can enter them in the "Harvard reference" format in the "Articles" subsection of references and then refer to them (in line) in the usual fashion {{Harvnb|Lastname|year|pagenumbers}} I know its a chore, but it is very helpful overall. See other references in British Raj. Fowler&fowler«Talk» 15:42, 10 December 2008 (UTC)
Changes to the WW2 article
[edit]Hi, I've just reverted your changes again as I think that they're too detailed for the article, which is written at a very high level. Could you please discuss this at the article's talk page at Talk:World War II? Thanks, Nick-D (talk) 09:10, 30 December 2008 (UTC)
Edit summaries
[edit]Thank you for your contributions to Wikipedia. Please don't forget to provide an edit summary for your edits. Thank you. --Jza84 | Talk 10:40, 7 February 2009 (UTC)
- Ditto from me. You have not explained your changes to Europe and so it is difficult to understand your reasons. Such edits are more likely to be reverted. Please explain in a few words why in the edit summary or on the talk page. --Triwbe (talk) 21:48, 17 February 2009 (UTC)

Europe 10,000 Challenge invite
[edit]Hi. The Wikipedia:WikiProject Europe/The 10,000 Challenge has recently started, based on the UK/Ireland Wikipedia:The 10,000 Challenge. The idea is not to record every minor edit, but to create a momentum to motivate editors to produce good content improvements and creations and inspire people to work on more countries than they might otherwise work on. There's also the possibility of establishing smaller country or regional challenges for places like Germany, Italy, the Benelux countries, Iberian Peninsula, Romania, Slovenia etc, much like Wikipedia:The 1000 Challenge (Nordic). For this to really work we need diversity and exciting content and editors from a broad range of countries regularly contributing. If you would like to see masses of articles being improved for Europe and your specialist country like Wikipedia:WikiProject Africa/The Africa Destubathon, sign up today and once the challenge starts a contest can be organized. This is a way we can target every country of Europe, and steadily vastly improve the encyclopedia. We need numbers to make this work so consider signing up as a participant and also sign under any country sub challenge on the page that you might contribute to! Thank you. --MediaWiki message delivery (talk) 21:09, 7 November 2016 (UTC)
Looking for source behind Nov 22nd, 2008 addition to Flood Article
[edit]Hey! I was looking into the claim that 3,084 people died in monsoon floods in South Asia in 1993, and couldn't find anything. I see you first added this to the Flood page in November of 2008 [1], and was hoping you or someone who sees this might have had a source for that table. Kitography (talk) 23:26, 2 January 2024 (UTC)
