Thanks Mariah-Yulia for the warm welcome. I don't see where Dzyhivka was added to the list of cities in Ukraine. Does it take time to show up? I will look for photos to scan. Thanks for your help! USchick (talk) 21:06, 5 May 2008 (UTC)

Your welcome :) I am curious :) are you just living in the USA or do you have an American pasport (you don't have to answer if you feel I'm getting to personal). I am Dutch myself :) with no family conections with Ukraine (yet :) ). PS becuase I'm not from Ukraine I don't know what is a city and what not, I will try to learn Ukrainian this summer in Kyiv!

Mariah-Yulia, I would love to talk to you about this offline. Email me at chillin10@yahoo.com

I question that person's definition of a city on the discussion page. I hope he answers, because I think he's wrong. USchick (talk) 18:26, 7 May 2008 (UTC)

Hi, USchick. The text as it is on Dzyhivka isn't appropriate for such a large encyclopedia like Wikipedia because it's such a small minor detail in an article about a village. The text would probably be more appropriate for a small local wiki of some kind or Wikitravel, which includes a lot of such information. If you have any more questions, I'll be glad to help out, —dima/talk/ 23:01, 8 May 2008 (UTC)

Ok, thank you, I'll delete. USchick (talk) 22:30, 11 May 2008 (UTC)

Thanks! Please pardon my ignorance, but what exactly is victory day and why is it on a German stamp? USchick (talk) 22:08, 11 May 2008 (UTC)

victory day is to celibrate the end of WWII. It is on a stamp of East-Germany (=DDR). As I understand right, the East German communist blammed West Germany for the war, while the people living in the east of germany where inocent victims of the nazi's. Mariah-Yulia (talk) 16:11, 12 May 2008 (UTC)

Victory that results in freedom is a beautiful thing! USchick (talk) 01:52, 13 May 2008 (UTC)
