Thanks for trying to bring some common sense to Roma people edit war. You may perhaps ask for page protection - I have seen such situations and there's no other reasonable way to deal with them. I have neither time nor stamina left to spent it on this topic. Pavel Vozenilek 01:02, 27 Jun 2005 (UTC)

[edit] Information about a Requests for arbitration

I started Request of Arbitration due to insults from User:Sumnakay. Since you are knowledgeable of the situation, you may add qualified statement there. Pavel Vozenilek 28 June 2005 22:23 (UTC)

[edit] Country, Nation and State

I was wondering if you would be interested in helping me in a bit of a project. I think at the moment the various pages on 'country', 'nation' and 'state' are vague, contradictory and often repeat each other. I would like to see a page along the lines of British Isles (terminology) that attempts to describe:

  • a. The technical differences betweeen the terms
  • b. The informal, often inaccurate, uses of the terms
  • c. Political motivations behind the mis-use or appropriation of the various terms

I think personally that creating such a page would be better than attempting to fit the info into any of the one pages - such as 'country', 'nation' or 'state', which are trying to do differnt things.

Now I'm not going to pretend that I'm gonna be capable of completing such an article myself, but I'd rather present it on Wikipedia in a relatively complete state, than as a 'work in progress'.

I was wondering if you would take a look at my first - relatively crude - draft here. Feel free to - indeed, please do - make changes or recommended changes.

[edit] Serbian presidential election, 2008

What precisely did you mean? Also, I can't seem to get the Light Blue for Pastor... --PaxEquilibrium (talk) 11:52, 29 January 2008 (UTC)

Yes, all three are mentioned.
Also, the B92 has every page in both Serbo-Croat and English, so I believe you can view it too?
P.S. Those ethnic minority parties barely receive any votes, and only one can pass a census in local elections. BTW the Radicals have some support from the minorities at the north, for example a lot in Vojvodina (most Slovaks, and even some Hungarians). --PaxEquilibrium (talk) 18:05, 29 January 2008 (UTC)

[edit] hello

It appears you have completely the wrong end of the stick. We are not pushing that Wales is not a country; we are simply quoting several official sources which say that it is not, and say that these should be included alongside the other viewpoint - which is what is called neutral point of view (- when both views are included). At no point did we say that saying Wales is a country is pushing POV; we said that only saying that, and ignoring the other sources, would be POV. Please read the discussion next time before you jump in and make haphazard claims.

Oh, and also, where did you get the idea English was not my first language? Gozitancrabz (talk) 21:38, 29 April 2008 (UTC)
