Comment

To Schmidt, MICHAEL Q Hi, You made completely chaotic and incorrect mixtute on the Mute Nights Festival page. I think you don't know Ukrainian or even Russian on the level, which allow you to set the page information from the sites on these languages. First of all: the language of several articles you linked in is Russian, not Ukrainian. The organisations who supported the first festival are not the orginizers at all. There is no Art Center Pushkinskoy in Odessa - the correct name of in is Art Centre of Korobchinsky. There are no film directors like Anna Sten or Semen Svashenko - they are the actors, but not the directors, so please don't unite them to one category with film directors as Dovzhenko or Vertov.

As the art-director of the Festival I would kindly ask you to start any changes in the article only being completely familiar with the material you work on.

Thank you for the improvements you have so far made,[1] You comments underscore the problems created when someone offers an article to English Wikipedia that has sources only available in non-English languages. When the article was nominated for deletion, and in trying to address the systemic bias inherent in Wikipedia (though I need not have done so), I did what I could to improve its sourcing and format so it might be retained and not deleted. And now that it HAS been retained, your concerns can best be addressed through regular editing. As the article author and the festival director, you are an editor with a personal interest in the topic, so please know that Wikipedia encourages contibutors to NOT create or edit those articles with which they have a personal interest. However, as you are knowledgable about the subject and better able to read and interpret Russian and Ukrainian than I, you would be welcome to suggest here on the talk page, whatever corrections you feel are needed and to provide links to whatever RS|reliable sources support the suggested changes. My only wish was to improve the article to show notability. If it proves that I have failed, then deletion may still occur. Offer your suggestions here and trust that your sugestion will be acted upon. Schmidt, ^{MICHAEL Q.} 02:57, 18 June 2011 (UTC)[reply]
