[edit] Signature

Hi, when you make comments on talk pages, could you please sign your posts with four tildes after your message, like other do it, not before it? Thanks. :) --Fut.Perf. ☼ 16:56, 16 May 2007 (UTC)

i just read you message:-) ok, i'll try not to forget to do it, but why do you ask? does it really matter? actually i just don't like to be like others:-)Dikarka 20:11, 19 May 2007 (UTC)

It is a wikiconvention of sorts, that everyone adheres to. Besides, it's pretty logical that the signature should come after the main message body, don't you agree?

If you want to have an unusual signature, you can customize it instead. Change the font, or color, or whatnot. You can probably ask a skilled wikipedian to help you with disign technicalities, as well (this nice lady, for example). --Illythr 02:05, 20 May 2007 (UTC)

[edit] Checkuser, again :)

I was wondering. All of us here have been checked at least once. Now, Dikarka is a single-use account (Transnistria-related edits alone) created exactly when other users were blocked. So, could he be checked against William Mauco and Mark Street? Or maybe he already was checked, and I missed it (I don't know, this is why I did not submit a B-class checkuser request). :) Dpotop 18:39, 18 May 2007 (UTC)

See this. Alæxis_¿question? 18:41, 18 May 2007 (UTC)

Yeah, it means too much time passed since the puppet masters have been blocked. How about their puppets? Buffadren, Britlawyer, etc. These ones have recent edits (1 week old). Dpotop 19:15, 18 May 2007 (UTC)

What do you mean? In the end WM and Dikarka were found to be unrelated (checkuser by --jpgordon∇∆∇∆ 00:18, 10 April 2007 (UTC)). Alæxis_¿question? 19:21, 18 May 2007 (UTC)

Dikarka 18:48, 18 May 2007 (UTC)I am not a he, I am a she. I am a Pridnestrovian girl. What are you?

As I already told a fellow editor making similar inquiries, I am the Pope in Rome, incognito, talking to Pridnestrovian girls. :) Dpotop 19:17, 18 May 2007 (UTC)

A Pridnestrovian girl? That's nice. :-) Maybe we'll nevertheless see another surprise soon?

Sorry, Dikarka, couldn't resist. I actually think you are not Mauco... (I looked into sockpuppetry a lot lately, I can tell you that...) Fut.Perf. ☼ 19:32, 18 May 2007 (UTC)

That's twisted, FutPerf! Are you suggesting the girls of Proriv are not quite girls? :) You must be really stuffed by all this Transnistrian business to come up with such a hypothesis. Dpotop 20:27, 18 May 2007 (UTC)

OTOH, if you're sure Dikarka is not Mauco, then it must be Mark. Dpotop 20:27, 18 May 2007 (UTC)

Actually, Marius and an anon have cleared that up for you as well there. He doesn't take any chances. :-) --Illythr 21:51, 18 May 2007 (UTC)

Dikarka 21:27, 18 May 2007 (UTC) actually i don't care whether you believe that i'm a girl from Pridnestrovie or not.I'm expressing here my point of view and that's it..but i'm a girl, undoubtedly:-)

That Alena girl from the link under the picture is the same girl from this video I think, about 3 minutes 20 seconds in. I wonder if that's our Dikarka? :-) Jonathanpops 22:26, 18 May 2007 (UTC)

Dikarka 09:09, 19 May 2007 (UTC)my name is not Alena:-)

For future reference, no girl (or guy for that matter) ever introduces herself with "I am a Pridnestrovian/American/Martian/Arabian/Ukrainian/Chinese girl"(or guy, resp.). This is the standard begining of matrimonial and sex announcements, you've read too many of those. Persons always say in the most simple way: "I am from Triaspol/New York/Caprica/Baghdad/Odessa/Shenzhen etc". If you don't believe me, say it loud in your native language to see how odd "I'm a Pridnestrovian girl" sounds as an introduction. :Dc76 14:48, 19 May 2007 (UTC)

Dpotop wrote in the first post that Dikarka is 'he' (which is understandable as he doesn't speak Russian). So it was quite natural that Dikarka replied that she's a girl. Alæxis_¿question? 15:00, 19 May 2007 (UTC)

Aaaah, it means "the savage one [she]". Only now I see. I thought it was some kind of ancient greek or middle eastern abreviation. Too much to try to check every name against all languages, I have better stuff to do. Anyway, if a girl approaches me with "hi, I am a savage Pridnestrovian girl" just as in sex-annonces, with all due respect I say "excuse me, but no, thank you". Honestly, I don't believe that user is a girl. Just look around in WP, 90% of girls have pink pages & are wikignomes & almost never edit politics, etc... While the very first words of Dikarka on her/his talk page are "I won't accept lies about my country" or something like that using Mauco et Marc Street vocabulary about Transnistria. I don't understand how some people can spend so much time trying to build up a character, to get it a story, etc - maybe they enjoy such activity?. It is much more simplier to just be yourself - people listen to you, you get respect for your thoughts, and your editws, not for who you are, or what is your position. I can give you an example of an editor, Dahn, with whom I have had some serious disagrements, and almost edit wars, but whom I respect as a very intelligent person and very valuable editor. An intelligent person is possible to convice, and intelligent person listens. In the case of Dahn, it might be very hard, but he's someone I'd rather have occasionally even as a rival than not have at all. Imagine you are uesugi and your "rival" is takeda or vice-versa. Dispite the fact that occasionally you "kill each other", you prefer that to not having him at all. Marc Street, though, is in this comparison someone like a rough ninja - pointless to try convince, those people simply never listen, they are political fanatics. With all due respect, this is the impression that i got so far. :Dc76 16:47, 19 May 2007 (UTC)

Whoa! It's the first time in a long time I did not understand a post. Some questions:

1. What is this "the savage one" story?
2. What is this uesugi vs. takeda vs. ninja story?

Dpotop 19:21, 19 May 2007 (UTC)

Eh, guys, why is this section here and not on Dikarka's talk page? --Illythr 17:12, 19 May 2007 (UTC)

Why here? Because Dikarka only edits on Transnistria-related subjects. It's better to have this discussion here. Dpotop 19:16, 19 May 2007 (UTC)

This page is for discussions on the Transnistria wikiarticle. Discussions on specific editors are done on their talk pages. I will move most of the section to where it belongs now. --Illythr 01:16, 20 May 2007 (UTC)

Dikarka 20:03, 19 May 2007 (UTC)First of all, i edit only on this page because i live in Pridnestrovie and i don't like somebody from abroad speaking about the things they don't know - you'd better come to Pridnestrovie and then post your comments. And secondly, why d'you think that all girls have pink pages - i'm not a stupid girl that has nothing to do..i just learnt that there is a page in Wikipedia for Pridnestrovie where everybody insults us, so i decided to express my thoughts here.

Okay folks, I think we've all had enough fun with this little conversation and everybody should get back to work on the article (or if they want to continue working out who is whose sockpuppet, do it elsewhere). Anything important that personally relates to Dikarka can be directed to her talkpage. Fut.Perf. ☼ 20:17, 19 May 2007 (UTC)

Future Perfect, you are a born diplomat. Dikarka in Russian means Sălbateca in Romanian or [she] [the] savage in English. Takeda Shingen and Uesugi Kensin were two famous Japanese feodal warriors from 16th century, who fought each other for about 20 years, yet learned to deeply respect the other (see Kawanakajima 1 through 5, Oda Nobunaga - whom Uesugi later fought, and Tokugawa Ieyasu - whom Takeda later fought, turned Japanese warring into bloodbaths, not the honorable and noble ones, as were weiged over Shinano). Ninjas' covert face-less attacks were considered below the dignity of a samurai. As for the article, could anyone, please, read it and list the problems that he/she sees. I do not have the intension of fighting over every word (unless in the introduction), so let's see/identigy what problems do we have. I don't see anything supermajor... D'ya? And yes, Fut.Perf. is right, we are like small kids, we find any mean to turn everything into humour. At least we don't into Kalashnikovs.:Dc76 21:05, 19 May 2007 (UTC)

BTW, Dikarka, if you are indeed from Transnistria, the coutry you live in is called Moldova, that is not abroad from Transnistria. We did not like to live in USSR, either, and considered ourselves occupied, but we had the common sense of not calling black white and vice versa, dispite the fact that we despised the country we lived in. There is wish, and there is fact; when there isn't clear difference between them two, there is only degradation, because clear and civilized purpose can not exist in an environment of self-lies.:Dc76 21:22, 19 May 2007 (UTC)

I don't think Dikarka meant precisely Moldova by "abroad" (Not a single regular user here is in Moldova now (except you, perhaps?)), but I find the statement kinda provocative. After all, Transnistria is de-facto independent from Moldova. MSSR, on the other hand, was an integral part of the USSR.

Tee-hee, I'm not sure who do you mean by "we", Dc76. In Gagauzia and Transnistria, the wish to stay in the USSR was in the 90%'s even in 1991, whereas the rest of Moldova got fed up with nationalism about as late as 2001, when it voted for the Communists overwhelmingly, showing quite clearly where they want to live (no, I didn't).

I'm also not sure that people actually despised the USSR - after all, Snegur et al had to boycott the referendum back then. This clearly means that they were afraid that the majority of the people may not see things their way, after all. --Illythr 01:16, 20 May 2007 (UTC)

The more probable translation of Dikarka is "shy one". --M Carling 07:30, 3 June 2007 (UTC)
