[edit] Re:Jewish Socialist Party

Same time and place. According to Henryk Grossman article, he joined the unlinked "Jewish Social Democratic Party of Galicia in 1905". Note that Polish Wiki gives the full name of Poale Zion as Żydowska Socjaldemokratyczna Partia Robotnicza "Poalej Syjon": Jewish Scialdemocratic Workers Party "PS". If it is not the same party, it is some small splinter - there seem to have been a few that split and merged all the time. I wish we had more info; I will see if I can stub Adolf Mosler as my small contribution to that story. I do think, however, that it was Anzelm Mosler, not Adolf (try googling for those two names...). At least Anzelm has a Polish Biographical Dictionary entry (Łopuszański, Bolesław (1977) 'Mosler Anzelm', in Polska Akademia Nauk Instytut Historii (ed.) Polski Sownik Biograficzny volume 22, Wrocław, Zakład Narodowy imienia Ossolińskich, pp. 55-56.). --Piotr Konieczny aka Prokonsul Piotrus| talk 22:17, 21 May 2008 (UTC)

Am reading Rick Kuhn's biog of Grossman. They are completely different parties - perhaps Polish wiki is wrong? JSPD/ZSDP was break from social democratic movement, and highly critical of PZ. Am trying to edit relevant pages with material from Kuhn's book. BobFromBrockley (talk) 11:44, 23 May 2008 (UTC)
As I noted, I am not that familiar with that part of the history. If you have found refs that it was a different party, great.--Piotr Konieczny aka Prokonsul Piotrus| talk 14:52, 24 May 2008 (UTC)

[edit] Image

Hello Soman! How are you? I have a question: How can I download images from other Wikipedia? I haven't download a single image. Regards, Masterpiece2000 (talk) 14:57, 25 May 2008 (UTC)

Thanks for your reply. And, you have created more than 2000 articles. Great job! Regards, Masterpiece2000 (talk) 15:05, 25 May 2008 (UTC)
Well, Soman, you create articles so fast! Yesterday it was 2500, now it is 2505! I also want to create over 1000 articles. Right now, I have created 137 articles. Regards, Masterpiece2000 (talk) 06:20, 26 May 2008 (UTC)

[edit] Template:ICMLPO (U&S)

I created Template:ICMLPO (U&S). Any improvements are welcome. I think the titles of the organisations are long and awful. -- Magioladitis (talk) 08:58, 26 May 2008 (UTC)

[edit] Quality Vs. Quantity

Hello Soman. I know about Quality Vs. Quantity debate. However, without over 2 million articles, Wikipedia will not be that popular. I would like to create 1000 articles someday. I have seen your articles, and many of them are about left-wing parties. Many articles you created are from the Third World countries. Let me tell you something about me: I am not from the west. I really appreciate your contributions. Someday I would like to talk with you in private. Regards, Masterpiece2000 (talk) 06:54, 27 May 2008 (UTC)

[edit] DYK nom of Martinican Communist Party

Hi Soman - there is an issue with this nomination which you may want to address. The hook is not properly cited and most of the references are in French and Russian. Vishnava talk 15:50, 30 May 2008 (UTC)


I can understand that, but the policy is quite clear on non-English sources and we can't expect readers not to get confused. Maybe another admin/reviewer should take a look, but its clear-cut to me that there is a major problem. Vishnava talk 18:29, 30 May 2008 (UTC)
I suggest that some of these sources in Google Books and Google Scholar be scouted for alternative citations. Vishnava talk 23:23, 30 May 2008 (UTC)
