[edit] Hi!
Hi Thomas,
I have wikified the Roma in Mitrovica Camps article - could you check it is okay for you? Your first draft was a bit too subjective and thus I've changed it. I'm interested in the plight of such people, due to the fact that my ancestry that is Romanian/Jewish (and Scottish!).
Good luck with all your work.

Dear Anon,
I've edited your edit, as some links were described wrong: Paul Polansky made the film: I just wrote the poems and am webmaster for MRFF.
Thanks for standardising the page: where should I put detailed entries in?
[edit] Hello my dear Celtic friend!!!
Hóigh! I would like to ask you to place your comments on the talk page and not to vandalize the articles (Kosovo). Furthermore, I am really surprised to see you acting like a blind Serbian nationalist. You are a poet and should act like one.--Pjetër Bogdani III 01:03, 24 February 2006 (UTC)
[edit] Wikipedia is not a noticeboard/soapbox/blog/link farm/vanity forum/etc
Hi Tom. I can't help but notice that you have created (and edited) several articles of late that (at first glance at least) appear to be created simply to link to any one of your personal websites, or otherwise push a personal agenda (POV) of one kind or another. Ultimately these types of edits will be deleted (or reworded) by other editors, so it may make sense to expend that extra bit of effort to avoid POV language or similar. (Also - FYI - you may find your contributions will be better received if you expend a little bit more effort either "wikifying" or generally forming an article or submission for structure or readability before saving.) If you need help or support with the latter, please let me know. Guliolopez 18:45, 27 February 2006 (UTC)
[edit] Concentration camps Lety and Hodonín
I'd reverted your edits here. Although it may sprise you, Wikipedia is not place for product marketing and also doesn't serve as replacement of newspapers. Not every temporary fad one can read in sensationalist media is worth of encyclopedia. Thanks for undarstanding. Pavel Vozenilek 00:13, 14 March 2006 (UTC)
- I'd created the article because I know about the topic more than what one reads in Sunday newspaper. When writing to others, please use Talk page, do not write on User page. Thanks for understanding. Pavel Vozenilek 01:09, 15 March 2006 (UTC)
[edit] Re: email
The recent activities of the National Party do no good to the name of Czech or Slovaks or the wider Slav community, and this is to chronicle their activities.
- The National Party is nobody. They have handful of members, no money, no influence on anything, no people in municipal offices, no tradition and no support in media. Not even a charismatic leader. They attempted to attract media attention, as did many others with the same theme before, and obviously the succeded a little better since it got known even in Ireland's newspapers. As the media frenzy (in the Czech Republic) turned to other events the party returned back to its invisible life.
- The article mentions misuse of the camp by extremists but doesn't list them one by one, they come and go and won't likely even get their article on Czech Wikipedia.
I am aware from my immigrant friends from Czrech rep of the hatred of Roma in their hearts that is still widespread today,
- That's true (for last few centuries) and it is backed by current statistics. I would create article (or update an existing) but I am pretty low on time. I have something like 3,000 pages on watchlist, long list of articles I plan to create and real world work that can take all the time.
Ten years ago we took in 16000 Roma refugess, and 50000 others from nations like Congo and Nigeria. As soon as things settled, the Roma went home... not so the Nigerians and Congolese.
oNE OF THE SOURCES, MORE COMING SOON
- If you have sourced numbers on emigration of Roma/emigration to Ireland/etc you may create an article (or check or update existing one). Pavel Vozenilek 21:19, 17 March 2006 (UTC)

[edit] Wikipedia is not a noticeboard/soapbox/blog/etc
Hi Tom. As above, I note that you're creating what appear to be "soapbox" articles - again. The Principle of consent page that you created appears to created solely as an "advocacy" page, not to neutrally describe the concept, but as a soapbox to "sell" reasons for opposition. Please remember that Wikipedia is intended to be a wikipedia and is not a soapbox or personal webspace for you to set out your political thoughts/cultural musings/etc. Guliolopez 21:01, 12 January 2007 (UTC)
[edit] Vera Bila article
A tag has been placed on Vera Bila, requesting that it be speedily deleted from Wikipedia. This has been done because the article seems to be about a person, group of people, band, club, company, or web content, but it does not indicate how or why the subject is notable, that is, why an article about that subject should be included in Wikipedia. Under the criteria for speedy deletion, articles that do not assert notability may be deleted at any time. Please see the guidelines for what is generally accepted as notable, and if you can indicate why the subject of this article is notable, you may contest the tagging. To do this, add {{hangon}}
on the top of the page (below the existing db tag) and leave a note on the article's talk page explaining your position. Please do not remove the speedy deletion tag yourself, but don't hesitate to add information to the article that would confirm its subject's notability under the guidelines.
For guidelines on specific types of articles, you may want to check out our criteria for biographies, for web sites, for bands, or for companies. Feel free to leave a note on my talk page if you have any questions about this. Realkyhick 21:20, 20 February 2007 (UTC)

I tried entering a quick few lines to be elaborated on after, but some johnny-jump-up decided to tag for deletion, as hes from the USA and decides to say who is big in the Czech Republic and who is not.
Can articles not be verified by natives of an area other than someone from across the world who doesnt have a clue?
Hence the paste job from the website, which will be reworded asap. Eiri Amach 21:40, 20 February 2007 (UTC)
[edit] Greetings
Hey, how's it going? Perhaps the .com boom page should be merged with .com ? Take it easy. -RiverHockey 20:59, 26 March 2007 (UTC) Maybe so, what do others think? Though I thought others could elaborate on its rise and fall, etc. Eiri Amach 23:22, 26 March 2007 (UTC)
