[edit] Need Help

The article vanavsos is up for deletion. Can you please help in this regard. Second, I am having difficulty with Wikinfo:Classical definition of republic and am having trouble on Talk:Republic because they won't allow an external link. It was deleted off of Wikipedia, and I believe it needs to come back on. A serious mistake in deleting this article. Thanks for your time.WHEELER 18:30, 8 Mar 2005 (UTC)

[edit] Poll

I hope that this message is of interest to you, if not please accept my apologies. There is a poll in the talk page of the 'Macedonian Slavs' article here:

http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Talk:Macedonian_Slavs#The_poll

Some people are lobbying for changing the article's name to Macedonians without any qualifier. As it seems, a number of these people come from the Macedonian/Macedonian Slav wikipedia project. It seemed only fair to attract the attention of people possibly from the other side of the story. Your contributions to the discussion and the poll are welcomed.

[edit] Wikipedia is not

lists of people only famous for how they died.

Wikipedia has been over this issue many times for many events (e.g. 9-11). WAS 4.250 15:29, 15 August 2005 (UTC)

[edit] Ancient Greek phonology

Hello, Leonariso , I see that you are interested in the Ancient Greek languge. Maybe you could help us out here. We have a big discussion on the phonology of Ancient Greek, in particular the Attic dialect spoken by Plato, Aristotle etc. You can join the discussion if you wish at Talk:Ancient Greek phonology. However, the main reason that I am approaching you is to ask you if you could help us out in citing some sources. Because many of us live outside Greece and Cyprus, we cannot get hold of the following books:

Ανδριώτης Ν., Ιστορική γραμματική της αρχαίας Ελληνικής. Μέρος Α': Φωνητική (Πανεπιστημιακές Παραδόσεις), Θεσσαλονίκη 1969

Συμεωνίδης Χ., Ιστορική γραμματική της αρχαίας Ελληνικής. Μέρος Α': Φωνητική (Πανεπιστημιακές Παραδόσεις), Εκδοτικός Οίκος Αφών Κυριακίδη, Θεσσαλονίκη 1989.

and any other Greek sources on the phonology of the Attic dialect. Also: do you still have your high school text book? Does it say anything about the pronounciation of beta, gamma, and delta in classical times?

What we are looking for is something like this: (excerpt Talk:Ancient Greek phonology)

In the Συνοπτική ιστορία της ελληνικής γλώσσας (Summary History of the Greek Language, Αθήνα 1986), Γεώργιος Μπαπμινιώτης (George Babiniotis) describes the transition from ancient to Koine Greek as involving structural transformations at all linguistic levels (p 114), and goes into some detail on the phonological changes, starting with the vowels (p 115), diphthongs (p 116), and then consonants (p 120). There is an 8-page discussion of the transition from ancient to Koine sounds. There is a table of the ancient sounds and spellings (p <π> / b <β> / pH <φ> etc.) and the late Alexandrian sounds and spellings (p <π> / b <μβ/μπ> / v <β> / f <φ> etc.) with some detail about the different times and dialects when these changes happened (not all simultaneously).

I assume that you have access to a Greek university library.We would particulary be interested in scholarly articles in this subject written by Greek linguists. Andreas 22:03, 20 November 2005 (UTC)

[edit] Wikipedians in Greece

Hi, I understand that you are either Greek Wikipedian or a Wikipedian living in/with an interest in Greece.

The category page Wikipedians/Greece has been replaced with Category:Wikipedians in Greece but your name still appears on the old list. You might considering moving it. You might also consider adding adding Template:Greekwiki to your user page.

A Wikipedia:Greek Wikipedians' notice board has been in existence for some time but is terribly underutilised. It would certainly benefit from your involvement.--Damac 12:21, 23 November 2005 (UTC)

[edit] Wikipedia:WikiProject Eurovision

Hello, mate, I see that you are interested in Eurovision. Would you like to be involved in connecting with more eurovision wikipedians to do up the eurovision pages in a more coherent manner? I have come across the Eurovision wikiproject page, which seems to have been dormant for over two years. It may be an idea to have a look there and see how we could improve the eurovision coverage. I have done up the Congratulations (Eurovision) page so far and put notes about it on the pages of those who performed there. Best regards from Australia, Blnguyen 23:54, 7 February 2006 (UTC)

[edit] Greek and Cypriot media coverage

Hello Leonariso,

I am writing a thesis on Croatia's candidacy to join the EU as seen by the various European media. As I see that you are a native Greek speaker interested in the Cypriot issues I was wondering if you would consider helping me. Needless to say, I don't speak Greek. However, I think it would be a shame if my thesis were to reflect only the views and topics covered in the countries such as Austria, Britain, France, Germany, the Netherlands etc (in short, the countries whose languages I understand). Therefore, I would like to include a section on Greek and Cypriot media in my thesis. I am not only interested in Croatia's candidacy, but also in the wider subjects people associate with the EU. I left a more detailed list on my discussion page.

I will be more than grateful if you could leave me just a link to a Greek or Cypriot newspaper article that deals with any of the above subjects with a short summary such as for example: "XY is opposed to Turkey's membership because of the unresolved Cyprus issue" or "the membership of Croatia is bad because the constitutional treaty has been rejected in France and the Netherlands" or "party X is critical to Greece's membership in the eurozone because of..."

I will be sending this message to several other native Greek speakers. Also if you know a Wikipedian who could help me, please let me know. Of course, if you're not interested, please accept my apologies and feel free to erase the message. Thank you for your time. PGradStudent 11:06, 10 May 2006 (UTC)


Hello Ioannis. Just a short note to thank you for the links to the Cypriot newspapers/articles. I have now enough information to compile both Greece and Cyprus section of my thesis. Thanks once again for all your time and effort. PGradStudent 16:09, 14 May 2006 (UTC)
