[edit] False summaries

Please do not use false there or false something it doesn't assume a good faith. I didn't notice that it is not a WikiProject but I reverted that edit in a good faith. ≈Tulkolahten≈≈talk≈ 20:02, 15 April 2008 (UTC)

As far as I know the word "false" does not imply intent, you might confuse it with other words that contain the implication that the act of making a certain statement was intentional. Hobartimus (talk) 22:31, 15 April 2008 (UTC)
Then use wrong or mistaken but not false. False doesn't sound as good as you think. ≈Tulkolahten≈≈talk≈ 22:43, 15 April 2008 (UTC)

[edit] Re. Attack page policy

Hello Hobartimus. I have removed all the sentences in Tankred's user page intro that made reference to specific editors. I don't think that it's strictly forbidden to have such attack references, but it clearly goes against our guidelines for user page content. And, it also goes against WP:Civil when one directly associates particular editors with rather unpleasant accusations. So, I thought that the best thing to do was to remove all the sentences that mentioned Wikipedia editors. Regards, Húsönd 12:24, 16 April 2008 (UTC)

[edit] anti-Hungarian sentiment

You should write an article about it. There's a good one on the hungatian wiki: hu:Magyarellenesség. I'm done editing. Wish you the best, to prevent this: Image:I0001334C.jpg‎ on English Wikipedia. --Rembaoud (talk) 18:56, 16 April 2008 (UTC)

[edit] Disputes

I have created a centralized discussion page at User talk:Elonka/Hungarian-Slovakian experiment. If you have concerns about the behavior of editors or the way that certain articles are being edited, please post them there. Thanks, Elonka 06:44, 17 April 2008 (UTC)

[edit] recent revert to History of Hungary

Did you revert edits simply because they were made by an anonymous IP? The edits weren't cited, but there are no footnotes in the article between 1849 and 1944 anyway. Please let me know your reasoning. - TheMightyQuill (talk) 14:07, 22 April 2008 (UTC)

[edit] Cabal Online

Thank you for picking up the vandalism on the Cabal Online page and reverting it. --Kigurumi Loopy (talk) 07:35, 23 April 2008 (UTC)


[edit] Rfa thanks

Thanks for supporting my recent request for adminship which was successful with 89 supports, 0 opposes, and 2 neutrals. Unfortunately all I can offer is this lame text thanks rather than some fancy-smancy thank-you spam template thingy. I was very pleased to receive such strong support and to hear so many nice comments from editors whom I respect. I’ll do my best with the tools, and if you ever see me going astray don’t hesitate to drop a note on my talk page. Thanks again for your support!--Bigtimepeace | talk | contribs 04:06, 26 April 2008 (UTC)

[edit] Userpage

Hobartimus, hi, I just reverted some vandalism to your userpage. The anon has also been blocked. If you'd like, I can place permanent semi-protection on your userpage so it is not at risk from IP vandals in the future. This would still allow you (and other established editors) to edit it, but would keep off the IPs and throwaway accounts. Let me know... Elonka 04:41, 30 April 2008 (UTC)

Done.  :) --Elonka 05:00, 30 April 2008 (UTC)

[edit] Vandalism Warnings

Thanks for your hard work in fighting vandalism. I noticed you don't always place warnings on user's pages after you have reverted vandalism like on Silicon. It is helpful if you do place warnings, as this will alert other vandal fighters to repeated vandalism by a user, as well as give the vandal a reminder that they are being watched. Thanks again! --Porqin (talk) 03:52, 1 May 2008 (UTC)

[edit] Thank you from Horologium

Thank you for participating in my RfA, which passed unanimously with the support of 100 editors. Your kindness is very much appreciated. I look forward to using the tools you have granted me to aid the project. I would like to give special thanks to Wizardman, Black Falcon and jc37 for nominating me. — Horologium

[edit] Gold rush tools and methods

Your recent edit to Gold rush tools and methods reverted vandalism back into the article (in this edit). You should take a little more care when reverting to ensure that you are improving, rather than damaging, articles. Thanks, Gwernol 23:39, 1 May 2008 (UTC)

[edit] MarkBA

Hi, I went ahead and removed the tag from his userpage, though if you know of a sock policy I've missed, definitely let me know (I'm not totally conversant on sockpuppetry procedures). It's my feeling though that since he's unblocked, and active, the tag would probably just raise tensions. If he's willing to continue on with just one account, then the tag's not needed. If he does resume with sockpuppets, then we can easily re-add the tag. If you see anything that's suspicious, definitely bring it up at the Experiment page so that we can review. If an account is obviously him, we can deal with it quite rapidly without having to go through SSP and RFCU. --Elonka 11:01, 2 May 2008 (UTC)

[edit] Nick Griffin

What was wrong with that edit? 86.163.86.45 (talk) 20:22, 6 May 2008 (UTC)

[edit] May 2008

Hello. Regarding the recent revert you made: You may already know about them, but you might find Wikipedia:Template messages/User talk namespace useful. After a revert, these can be placed on the user's talk page to let them know you considered their edit was inappropriate, and also direct new users towards the sandbox. They can also be used to give a stern warning to a vandal when they've been previously warned. Thank you. Oore (talk) 21:26, 7 May 2008 (UTC)

[edit] Current threads on MarkBA

Somme of the recent threads you opened have been mentioned at the Hungarian-Slovakian_experiment. Can you please take a moment to comment at User_talk:Elonka/Hungarian-Slovakian_experiment#Active_threads_2? Thanks. Shell babelfish 19:45, 10 May 2008 (UTC)

[edit] Move protection

Thanks! If you have ideas for other specific categories of articles that should be move-protected, let me know. NawlinWiki (talk) 20:19, 13 May 2008 (UTC)

[edit] Re: Edit warring by R. Tabor

Hello,

I have been restoring passages that have been constantly deleted by R. Tabor, who progressed to blanking the page on Suzanne Olsson. I tried to take the matter to Talk Page but this was unsuccessful. I reported the matter to: http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Wikipedia:Administrator_intervention_against_vandalism

Thanks, Wfgh66 (talk) 19:27, 14 May 2008 (UTC)

[edit] Slovak language

I can read a little bit of Slovak, at least those words that are close to their Russian equivalents and a few more. I don't read Russian fluently either, but I'm familiar with Russian grammar and common words. My Hungarian is a lot worse, there's only a few words I can recognize. Markussep Talk 20:36, 14 May 2008 (UTC)

It's certainly not my intention that everyone makes a list like this. As Elonka asked yesterday, I tried to summarize the discussion sofar. Although I think we're close to a solution, there are still some points of discussion left. A full consensus may be an impossible goal, but we should try to find wide support. Markussep Talk 18:41, 16 May 2008 (UTC)
You can add and modify points, and you can move points from "consensus" to "no-consensus" or vice versa. If you move something from consensus to no-consensus, you should explain it. Markussep Talk 18:49, 16 May 2008 (UTC)
Actually, a voting majority is not consensus. I hoped when I started the poll, that some points would be accepted more or less unanimously, but no. Markussep Talk 18:52, 16 May 2008 (UTC)
If you oppose some of the things I wrote under "consensus", then they obviously don't belong there. This list is not my opinion, it's my perception of the discussion, I could be wrong. I didn't think I missed any "common grounds", but if you know some, add them. Markussep Talk 19:21, 16 May 2008 (UTC)

[edit] Maggyarization =

I really can not understand why should I leave the article who wrote the correct statistics. It's funny that it is written in the article once 48% Hun. 16.1% Rom and beneath at the Education topic 54.5% Hun 16.1 Rom.

Where did I found the statistics?? wikipedia- Trianon treaty article

Actually I wrote it down in the discussion section but nobody answered. Csokyspite (talk) 21:15, 19 May 2008 (UTC)

You have to write at the bottom of the page not the top see how I moved your comment here? Hobartimus (talk) 21:43, 19 May 2008 (UTC)

[edit] Thanks!

Thanks so much for your support in my RfA, which closed successfully this morning. TravellingCarithe Busy Bee 19:47, 22 May 2008 (UTC)

[edit] Trial run on ITN reform proposal

I have now proposed a one-week trial run for the ITN reform proposal at Template talk:In the news#Change in ITN/c format. Please comment there. Thanks.--Pharos (talk) 20:46, 22 May 2008 (UTC)

The trial run is active now! Your help in making this a success would be appreciated.--Pharos (talk) 20:55, 27 May 2008 (UTC)
