When did exactly Edward Osóbka-Morawski join the Polish Socialist Party (PPS)? Xx236 11:20, 11 September 2006 (UTC)

Polish wiki article about him notes he was a member of PPS from 1928 to 1941, and again from 1944 to 1948. From 1941 to 1943 he was a member of Polscy Socjaliści (red link on pl wiki to), and from 1943 to 1944 of Robotnicza Partia Polskich Socjalistów (article on pl wiki to translate). Also, please take a look at the Polish article about PPS which has much more detail on PPS history (note that there were the pre-war and post-war PPS parties were quite different). Thus to answer your question, EÓM joined PPS twiceL in 1928 and in 1944.-- _{Piotr Konieczny aka Prokonsul Piotrus | talk}  16:59, 11 September 2006 (UTC)

Sorry to be not precise - when exactly in 1944 did he join PPS? Did he represent the PPS in PKWN as the article says, or rather the RPPS? Xx236 09:03, 12 September 2006 (UTC)

[edit] Correction?

Why is changing it from Moscow to Soviet Union more correct? In the first place, it is no longer grammatically correct in the English language as written by you, secondly I think "poetic license" allows a better Wikipedia without such "corrections". Dr. Dan 01:50, 7 June 2007 (UTC)

Wikipedia is en encyclopedia, not a poem. Times where Moscow was important enough to warrant a state-like name (Muscovy) ended centuries before 20th century, PKWN was a Soviet Union's puppet, not of the city of Moscow. Sure, most readers may understand a 'poetic analalogy', but some won't (remember we have kids reading this and so on) - and we must make the article as unconfusing as possible.-- _{Piotr Konieczny aka Prokonsul Piotrus | talk}  17:03, 7 June 2007 (UTC)

And we must make the article as unconfusing as possible. Sounds nice, but it has not been what my experience with you and many of your edits and efforts on Wikipedia have led me to believe is your own belief. While Wikipedia is not a poem, it is not a depository for incorrect English spelling, syntax and grammar, to replace a grammatically correct one. So you are now advocating "functionality" and against enhancing the project with style and literary enhancement? Hopefully when you write in your native language you do so yourself. As for Moscow being appropriate here (and also not confusing), it was the capital of the Soviet Union. When one speaks of policies emanating from Washington, no one is confused. In fact saying that the policy stems from the United States might even be too broad. The policies emanating out of Washington and Moscow were just that, and not emanating out of Yellowstone or Lake Baikal. I think it's another case of simply liking yourself and your viewpoint more than mine. Do correct your grammatical error, and work on your English. Dr. Dan 17:33, 7 June 2007 (UTC)
