[edit] Marat Safin
Would you help me clean up Marat Safin? With your interest in tennis-related topics and your plethora of barnstars, you seem like you can help me out. Lately, I've been trying to clean up and add sources to Marat Safin, but I just don't know what to keep and what to remove. The article has some OR for sure. мirаgeinred سَراب ٭ (talk) 16:56, 2 March 2008 (UTC)
- Thank you so much for your help. I think we should try to bring it up to GA for now. мirаgeinred سَراب ٭ (talk) 20:26, 3 March 2008 (UTC)
- Sweet. мirаgeinred سَراب ٭ (talk) 00:34, 6 March 2008 (UTC)

- Thank you for adding sources that I could have never found. Do you have any ideas on how his article should be organized? I don't like that it starts off with Grand Slams...Davis Cup and then tracking his progress year by year. мirаgeinred سَراب ٭ (talk) 01:22, 8 March 2008 (UTC)

- It's cool. I agree that it's better to do it year by year since the article is not organized in a consistent manner. I noticed that the beginning of the Grand Slam section covers some of his early career in 2000 when Safin won the US Open. Perhaps we can break that section apart. I guess the problem is that there aren't that many information for the years other than 2005 - 2008. мirаgeinred سَراب ٭ (talk) 20:48, 9 March 2008 (UTC)

[edit] A request.
Hi. I was surfing Wiki and saw your user page today. You have a great user page with a great template. I want to know that can I use your template in my user page? Thanks and sorry for my bad grammer.--Solar-Poseidon (talk) 23:16, 27 March 2008 (UTC)
- Thanks a lot. :) --Solar-Poseidon (talk) 07:54, 28 March 2008 (UTC)
[edit] Flagicons in infoboxes
I noticed your revert of my flagicon removals from MTV Estonia and MTV Italy. I am not sure if you read the link instead of just the description of the header but if it is the former I suggest you read it, Wikipedia:Manual of Style (flags)#Help the reader rather than decorate.
On these pages the flagicons were put into an infobox that is set up to put a wikilink of the country next to the flag. In these cases the flagicons added nothing of encyclopedic value because the name of the country is next to the flag and are merely being used as decoration therefore not being helpful to the reader.

[edit] NATO
Because I live in country where 72 % of population demand referendum about NATO but government is refusing with words "majority support entry in NATO and referendum is not needed" I know everything about NATO propaganda and NATO "education".
Maybe russian Interfax is not serious NPOV source about Ukraine, but I am sure that Ukraine-NATO is not NPOV source about this (source of statement that 47 % support NATO). Today version of text in question is: "A poll commissioned by the government showed that 47 percent support joining NATO and 45 are opposed, but on the other side a poll taken by Interfax has showed that less than 20% of respondents are in support of Ukraine joining NATO, with 57% against"
I will add word Russian before Interfax so we will have NPOV statement. If both polls are NPOV is different question !
We are having agreement ?--Rjecina (talk) 06:39, 7 April 2008 (UTC)
- Going from my experience, I know what a pathetic circus the russian mass media is. Don't tell me about propaganda, you should have seen their coverage of the Georgian presidential elections. And you'd think the NTV - TV6 story would teach people a lesson. But 57 to 20? Do you really buy that? I happen to know some ukrainians (my grandparents from father's side still hold ukrainian citizenship by the way) and most of those I've managed to discuss this with seem to be pro-nato. 47 - 45 seems to be on par with the 2004 presidential elections too. I don't know how reliable the numbers are, but I'm sure they are much closer to reality than those provided by Interfax. Anyway, adding the word Russian was my initial solution too, at least for now, because, in all honesty, the idea of having Interfax as source for an encyclopedia doesn't appeal to me.

[edit] Copyvio
Hi,
You put a deletion tag to an image I uploaded and You're probably correct to do so (though you didn't put a notice to my talk page). I presumed the piece is old enough, but actually don't know. Do you consider yourself somewhat knowledgeable in Estonian copyright law? Suppose I picture my girlfriends 19th century jewellery, what would be the correct license?

[edit] Russian League
I was just going by what was said at Russian Premier League. It says that the league was known as the Russian Top Division from 1991 to 2001, when it became the Russian Premier League. – PeeJay 15:38, 2 May 2008 (UTC)
[edit] UEFA coefficient
Hello! I think we can conclude that England's final coefficient this season will be 75.749 in the current coefficients section, because both active English clubs play against each other in the Champions League final, so England will get 2 points no matter what the result of the final will be, thus adding 0.250 to the current coefficient. Should this be mentioned in the article? ARTYOM 18:18, 6 May 2008 (UTC)

[edit] Krylya Sovetov
Thanks for the pointer; I did miss that RM. Note, however, that "Krylya" is a correct romanization of "Крылья" as per WP:RUS (I see there was some confusion about that), hence the dab page should be located at "Krylya Sovetov".

[edit] About Karpin
Привет! Можно ли ознакомиться со ссылкой на сайт Корухо, где было бы упоминание о Карпине? Сам не смог найти. Sidik iz PTU (talk) 17:16, 2 June 2008 (UTC)
[edit] Vandalism?
I am new to wikipedia, and I have been told this: "Please stop your disruptive editing, such as the edit you made to Frederic Kanoute. If your vandalism continues, you will be blocked from editing Wikipedia." What is "disruptive editing"? I have made one edit (one single edit) to the article, in which I have made changes to Kanoute's contract information, indicating that the player has signed with Fenerbahce, because a well-trusted news website said so. In my edit I have included my references. Thus, what vandalism have I committed? I do not quite understand.
Could you please reply to my question about the vandalism I have been accused of. Thanks. —Preceding unsigned comment added by 62.194.111.158 (talk) 21:06, 2 June 2008 (UTC)
[edit] Tendai
Yes, I noticed. The name seemed uncommon enough to me but on closer inspection if he's from Mozambique it wouldn't make sense for him to be on Zifa. Thanks for letting me know. xenocidic (talk) 19:28, 8 June 2008 (UTC)
