National parks

Hi there! Where do you take all those articles on Polish national parks from? Halibutt 14:21, 18 February 2006 (UTC)

If you can, please learn how to wikify articles, and when you add new Poland-related articles, leave us a note at Portal:Poland/New_article_announcements. Tnx for your contribs!--Piotr Konieczny aka Prokonsul Piotrus ^Talk 19:08, 18 February 2006 (UTC)

Hi Tymek, I have just reverted your last edit of Wisloka Debica. Please do not post copyrighted material to Wikipedia without permission from the copyright holder. See Wikipedia:Copyrights. Copyright violations are unacceptable and persistent violators will be blocked. Your original contributions are welcome. You can, of course, attempt to obtain permission.

Hi Tymek, that's ok then ;) I would put a note on the talk page, stating that it's reproduced from the site, but that you own that text, and you are releasing it under the GFDL. Could I also ask that you make the additions look a little less like a cut-&-paste dump, with appropriate section headings and wikilinks? I will help with this now it's here. Sorry about that, but I would definately add that note, or someone else will probably come along and reach the same conclusion. All the best, and thanks for the contribution!. - Nzd (talk) 21:52, 6 March 2006 (UTC)

Sorry, no particular interest in Polish football, just an interest in the game in general. I've been working my way through Category:Football (soccer) clubs looking for articles to populate Category:Establishments by year and Category:Football (soccer) chairmen and investors. I just happened to get to the Polish clubs recently.. By the way, you should sign your messages on talk pages, which you can do by typing four tildes (~~~~) at the end of your message. All the best. - Nzd (talk) 22:13, 6 March 2006 (UTC)

Wikify/cats/etc.

History of football in Poland is certainly an interesting field. It would be great if you could properly wikify your articles, and add them to the appopriate categories. I'd recommend you go over the articles you have created, see how others cleaned them up, and learned from them. See also their talk pages. A poza tym - dobra robota :) --Piotr Konieczny aka Prokonsul Piotrus ^Talk 05:08, 3 April 2006 (UTC)

If you had any questions about Ruch Chorzów, the most prominent football club in Poland in late 30' you can ask me, cause I'm multigeneration fan of that club ;) Jeśli czytasz po polsku możesz sobie poczytać to (muszę jeszcze poprawić trochę nie-encyklopedyczne stwierdzenia ;) D_T_G (PL) 10:28, 4 April 2006 (UTC)

Kluby

Władysław Szczepaniak

Hi, thanks for all your help! I'm trying to help clean up Władysław Szczepaniak and couldn't make it what you meant by "For the last time appeared on the field in 1947, soon after Polonia’s 1946 victory in the Championships of Poland." If you could respond at Talk:Władysław Szczepaniak, that would be great! -- Ricky81682 (talk) 09:35, 29 May 2006 (UTC)

Józef Korbas

Tymek, thanks for the quick response earlier. Another question for you regarding Józef Korbas. I noticed that Korbas has a birth year, but no death information. If Korbas is still alive, could you please add him to Category:Living people? -- Ricky81682 (talk) 08:08, 30 May 2006 (UTC)

Śląsk Świętochłowice

Byłbym bardzo wdzięczny jakbyś mógł poprawić artykuły związane z Śląskiem Świętochłowice i jego stadionem OSiR Skałka... tutaj masz polskie strony pl:Śląsk Świętochłowice i pl:OSiR Skałka... bardzo pozdrawiam Adik7swiony 21:51, 7 June 2006 (UTC)

Długość artykułu

Nie przejmuj się tym, 30kb to nie jest wcale tak dużo :) Pisz dalej. Kilka uwag: brakuje źródeł (references, citations, zobacz WP:CS), obrazki sa niesformatowane i nie maja podpisow, zobacz WP:XIMG i WP:CAP. Na koniec, brakuje tez kategorii (WP:CAT). Jak cos nie jasne, pytaj sie dalej :) -- _{Piotr Konieczny aka Prokonsul Piotrus  talk}  00:28, 26 July 2006 (UTC)

Jesli uzywasz Firefoxa, to on ma pewne problemy z dlugimi artykulami na Wiki (ja uzuwam Mozilli m.in. dlatego). Jesli nie, to nie wiem dlaczego nie mozesz doklejac tekstu... :( -- _{Piotr Konieczny aka Prokonsul Piotrus  talk}  17:28, 26 July 2006 (UTC)

Futbol

Tymku, nie do końca rozumiem w czym może być problem. Artykuł jak dotąd ma zaledwie 30kb, najdłuższy z moich jak dotąd ma blisko dwa razy tyle i nie miałem żadnych problemów z jego pisaniem. Może używasz jakiejś dziwnej przeglądarki (czyt: czegoś innego niż Mozilla Firefox)? A może po prostu używasz zbyt wielu sekcji i system sobie nie radzi? Ale to chyba mało prawdopodobne... Tak czy owak - kilka spraw:

1. nie wiem czy zdajesz sobie sprawę z tego, że okres prehistorii polskiego futbolu już opisałem - w History of football in Poland.
2. mój artykulik na razie ma gigantyczną przewagę nad Twoim. Nie jest lepszy, ale zwyczajnie cytuje źródła i odnośniki, których w Twoim artykule brak, a to duży błąd. Im więcej źródeł dodasz, tym lepiej. Może nawet z czasem będzie to można promować do FA..?
3. Nie słyszałem o takim sporcie jak soker. Futbol owszem, ale soker? A tak na serio - nie dajmy się zwariować. Sam artykuł o piłce nożnej na angielskiej wiki może być ujednoznaczniony, bo amerykanie mają problem z tymi nazwami. Ale artykuł o historii polskiej piłki nie musi używać podwójnego nazewnictwa. MSZ wygląda to cokolwiek dziwnie.
4. Tak czy siak - jako że oba artykuły traktują na razie o tym samym - może by je połączyć?

//Halibutt 18:39, 26 July 2006 (UTC)

Źle mnie zrozumiałeś. Nie wywyższam się ani się nie czepiam. Po prostu artykuł ze źródłami jest z zasady sto razy lepszy od artykułu bez nich, nawet jeśli jest faktycznie "gorszy". Źródła: git; brak źródeł: nie cacy. Co do nazwy - to właśnie Amerykanie mają z tym problem, ale nie sądzę, by w każdej sytuacji trzeba było iść im na rękę. Tak jak Wikipedia nie nazywa się Wikipedia, the Free Encyclopedia (Encyclopaedia). A co do artykułów - zauważ że ten mój jest jedynie pierwszą częścią i w zamierzeniu miał pokrywać całą historię - zgodnie z tytułem. Stąd mój pomysł by je połączyć i współpracować. //Halibutt 04:34, 27 July 2006 (UTC)

Śląsk Świętochłowice

Sorry about that. I did do a little more cleanup just now. Biruitorul 21:36, 15 August 2006 (UTC)

I'm not especially interested in Polish soccer (but more in Romanian). Rather, my main concern is with proper diacritics (for instance writing Śląsk and not Slask. Biruitorul 01:09, 17 August 2006 (UTC)

Korbas date of death

You can add whatever information you have to Józef Korbas. Do you have a source, maybe someplace online where you found it? If so, just add that. -- Ricky81682 (talk) 19:02, 21 August 2006 (UTC)

Re:Mala informacja

Dzięki za informację

Dzięki za informację , ale myślę , że nie robię nic nielegalnego . Informacja w polskim prawie nie jest łamaniem praw autorskich . Trzeba tylko podać źródła..i ja to robię...ale chyba już zaprzestanę...Dzięki za ostrzeżenie :-) .Bartekos 20:03, 31 January 2007 (UTC)

Mój team to Tarant Wójcin :-)...i tylko nie mów , że to zespół za słaby by mieć swoje miejsce w wikipedii :-) . A jeszcze co do tych moich artykułów - nie kopiuję ich z książek tego Pana . Piszę według określonego szablonu (a więc , nazwisko , data urodzenia , śmierci , narodowość , co dana osoba osiągnęła itd. , przecież to można znaleźć w wikipedii , a od z tych encyklopedii to biorę czasami tylko ciekawostki i czasami nazwę klubu w jakim dany zawodnik grał . A jeżeli chodzi o zawodników współczesnych to robię np tak : Krzysztof Łągiewka . Pozdrawiam Bartekos 20:20, 31 January 2007 (UTC)

...kurczę...Myślałem całą noc o tym co mi powiedziałeś :-) . I co teraz mam zrobić ? Skasować wszystkie te notki , które zrobiłem np. o zawodnikach Meksyku z M.Ś. 1930 ? Sam już nie wiem co robić...Naprawdę mam już dość tej wikipedii . Pozdrawiam Bartekos 09:53, 1 February 2007 (UTC)

Wiesz co..chyba masz rację nie ma się czym przejmować (choć teraz jak w wyszukiwarce wpisze się nazwisko autora , to wyskakują moje artykuły) , pytałem się paru osób i wszystko wydaje się ok . Tam gdzie mogłem skreśliłem takie szczegółowe informacje , które wydawały mi się kontrowersyjne np. Antoni Szymanowski . Aha...Rozpocząłem prace nad Jutrzenka Kraków , ale szczerze powiedziawszy za dużo o tym klubie nie wiem . Znalazłem coś na stronie statystyków piłki nożnej i to dodałem . Może ty masz jakieś informacje o tym klubie ? (jak np.barwy) Pozdrawiam Bartekos 12:20, 2 February 2007 (UTC)

Jutrzenka i Cracovia ? Info wziąłem ze źródła , które jest podane..ale jeszcze raz sprawdzę...

No wreszcie nauczyłem się dodawać przypisy...:-). Teraz już chyba jest korekt ? Prawda ? Nad czym teraz pracujesz ? Ja zająłem się niektórymi piłkarzami , którzy kiedyś grali w naszej lidze. No wiesz są to raczej krótkie notki jak np. Gift Musadzi , ale to zawsze coś . Poza tym dodałem trochę o historii Tarant Wójcin , być może napiszę historię mojej miejscowości...Muszę pomyśleć nad zdjęciami . Oczywiście swojej roboty :-) Pozdrawiam Bartekos 21:33, 5 February 2007 (UTC)

Cześć stary! Wielkie dzięki za przetłumaczenie tekstu pieśni, świetna robota, zaraz włożyłem go do artykułu. Naprawdę doceniam to! - Darwinek 10:29, 2 February 2007 (UTC)

Cześć. Czytałem dyskusję dotyczącą roku 1938 oraz interwencji Polski na Zaolziu. Chcę zapytać, czy Richard Watts w swojej książce mówi też o naszej mniejszości? Czy też interesuje się tylko sprawami politycznymi itp. - Darwinek 20:55, 8 February 2007 (UTC)

Welcome to WikiProject Trains

Hello and welcome to the Trains WikiProject! Thank you for adding your name to our project membership list. Our goal is to build the most comprehensive and detailed guide to rail transport on Wikipedia. As a project member, you may add the project membership userbox to your user page if you wish.

If you haven't done so already, please add our main project page to your watchlist and take some time to review the Trains project manual of style where we have collected guidelines and suggestions on notability and style for a consistent representation of rail transport related material. If you're curious about where to start, we've gathered a few suggestions in the Trains project to do list. If you'd like to specialize in a particular area of study within rail transport, take a look at the current Trains project task forces.

If you have any questions, please feel free to ask on the project talk page or on my talk page. Again, welcome and happy editing! Slambo (Speak) 15:41, 4 February 2007 (UTC)

Autonomiczne Województwo Śląskie

"Dlaczego zmieniles zawartosc artykulu o Autonomicznym Wojewodztwie Slaskim w latach miedzywojennych?"

Wikipedia opiera się na tym, że można stale poprawiać i zmieniać hasła. Artykuł starałem się jak najbardziej upodobnić do artykułu w polskiej wersji językowej.

"Zachowales sie nieladnie, tak sie nie robi, usunales sporo wiadomosci ktore sa istotne i jak najbardziej prawdziwe"

Początek zdania zostawiam bez komentarza. Jeśli chodzi o drugą część tego zdania: nie usunąłem sporo wiadomości. Prawie nic nie usunąłem. Głównie dodałem infobox i zrobiłem zmiany redakcyjne. Przypatrz się dokładnie moim zmianom.

"usunales tez powiat frysztacki ktory nalezal do tego wojewodztwa w okresie jesien 1938-wrzesien 1939"

Ja w artykule przedstawiłem dane z 1929, wtedy nie było tego powiatu w województwie.

Po za tym, z twojej wersji wynika, że Chorzów (pop. 128 900) był większym miastem od Katowic (pop. 126 200) co nie było prawdą. LUCPOL 19:13, 9 February 2007 (UTC)

"Wedlug spisu powszechnego Polski z 1931 roku Chorzow byl wiekszy od Katowic"

Czy aby na pewno? PS. Zobacz też tu.

"Powiat frysztacki nalezal do tego wojewodztwa od roku 1938, ale nie rozumiem dlaczego calkowicie go usunales, skoro istnial (wystarczylo napisac, ze istnial w latach 38-39)"

Tu się z tobą zgadzam. Ale o tym później.

"A co z tym jezykiem slaskim? Gdzie to znalazles?"

Dane przeniosłem z pl.wikipedii. Wiem, że ten język był nieoficjalny, lecz infobox ma w kodzie wpisane "Official" (czego nie ma na pl.wikipedii) i stąd te komplikacje. Nie mniej jednak poprawiłem - wpisałem adnotacje ¹Non official. PS. Czeski również wtedy nie był oficjalnie uznawanym językiem w województwie.

Mam do Ciebie propozycję, utwórz proszę tabelę z miastami i powiatami tak jak jest w artykule lecz z twoimi danymi. Dane są znacznie bardziej czytelne dzięki tabeli. Tabelę wprowadź w brudnopisie lub w mojej dyskusji lub po prostu w dyskusji artykułu. Jeśli będzie wszystko OK to podmieni się tabele w artykule. LUCPOL 19:48, 9 February 2007 (UTC)

---

Jak piszesz do mnie to pisz po polsku. Dalej nie wiem co z tą wielkością Chorzowa. Wytłumacz mi to jeszcze raz... tym razem po polsku. Po drugie: twoje dane które przedstawiłeś są nieco mylące, bowiem przedstawiasz dane jednostek z 1931 roku danymi statystycznymi z 1939 roku kiedy był inny podział administracyjny (czy tak?). Może więc mi wyjaśnisz po polsku co oznaczają daty "1931" i "1939" w twoich danych. PS. Było by miło jak byś usunął ten post, ja zgadzam się na usunięcie swojego. Te posty wprowadzają złą atmosferę i na dodatek twój post kwalifikuje się jako trolling. Więc lepiej je usunąć. Usuń oba (zezwalam na usunięcie swojego). LUCPOL 11:02, 10 February 2007 (UTC)

Polacy grający obecnie poza granicami kraju

Hej ! Rozpocząłem prace nad projektem Polish footballers playing currently abroad , ale roboty przy tym jest bardzo dużo. Jakbyś znał kogoś kto chciałby w tym uczestniczyć to zapraszam .

.. jak mówią u nas albo po prostu tory. :) Myślę, że nie jest to dobry pomysł. Zostawiłbym to tylko w ramach istniejącego już artykułu, który wspomniałeś i dodałbym szczyptę informacji o tym, że tereny te (Zaolzie) weszły w skład Polski dopiero w X 1938. Szczerze mówiąc, to Zaolzie jest i tak małym skrawkem ziemi. :) - Darwinek 09:10, 13 February 2007 (UTC)

Uwazaj na styl nazw (Łódź Voivodeship (1919-1939) a nie Lodz Voivodeship 1919-1939. A WP:TRIVIA nie lubi - artykul trzeba wkleic gdzies.

Thanks for your comments about editing your PKP in 1939 page. I know how hard it can be to produce something like that, especially in a foreign language and using technical language.

Even if it wasn't directly copied from anywhere, it may be a translation of a Polish one, which would have meant the same problem: it is a derivative work of a text protected by copyright, and it can't be used on Wikipedia without permission of its copyright holder. - Mike Rosoft 19:10, 3 July 2007 (UTC)

• Reviewing the linked Polish articles, it seems to me that it's not a direct translation from the Polish, but a free re-phrasing, which should be okay. However, it still needs cleanup - statements like "however, it was not a regular train as we imagine it" are better suited for a magazine article than for an encyclopedia. Regards, Mike Rosoft 19:15, 3 July 2007 (UTC)
• To clarify: a translation from Polish Wikipedia or another source which is under a free license (or in public domain) would have been acceptable as well. - Mike Rosoft 19:24, 3 July 2007 (UTC)

Football hooliganism

Hi thank you for your message. Yes indeed I do edit the various articles regularly, partly because I try to keep a middle ground between those who add stuff which is full of weasel words and often is just glorifying hooliganims, and those who just constantly criticise without any real thought. Also because there has been far too much unsourced content added to the different articles. For instance the List of hooligan firms article constantly sees users adding new Firms but ignoring the clear guidelines that they need to be mentioned in a third party source. I agree with you that the Poland section on the Football hooliganism article needs expanding. I would though strongly recommend that any sources are in English. One good source of information is always the BBC ([www.bbc.co.uk BBC online]). The source you provided (Warsaw Voice) which is in English on the article which I am currently working on (which you created but I have renamed to Wrocław football riot 2003 as I feel this is a less wordy title) seems a good source? Perhaps that site might contain more information? it might also be worth checking any British newspaper online websites, such as The Guardian or Daily Express? Or some times United States online newspapers or ESPN maybe? I hope you do not mind my work on the Wrocław article you created, I am in the middle of cleaning it up and should finish it later on tonight. Good luck! ♦Tangerines♦·Talk 19:10, 2 October 2007 (UTC)

Hi yes, I will add the groups! I will do it later today, cheers. ♦Tangerines♦·Talk 18:08, 4 October 2007 (UTC)

Hi just to let you know that I will be adding the firms shortly this evening. I didn't get chance to do it last night. ♦Tangerines♦·Talk 17:13, 5 October 2007 (UTC)

Good work on the new article (football hooliganism in Poland) and yes I will have a look at it> I will put the "in use" tag on it when I am working on it. I will add the Polish firms first on the List of firms article. ♦Tangerines♦·Talk 17:46, 5 October 2007 (UTC)

The Polish firms are now on the List of hooligan firms article. Also I have been working on your article this evening. I just wanted to tell you though that I thought it best to use only English language sources, which is why some sections have the "citation needed" tag. I did this because there appears to be quite a few English language sources, all the ones you found. Plus I am sure there will be others too. If I do not finish it tonight (which I doubt I will) I will continue working on it over the weekend. ♦Tangerines♦·Talk 22:23, 5 October 2007 (UTC)

Please would you do me a favour and wait until I have finished editing the article before you add any more content. The "in use tag" is there so that other users do not edit whilst a user is working on an article. Your edit whilst adding more content only confused the article as it is and so for now I have reverted it until later. Thanks. ♦Tangerines♦·Talk 00:52, 6 October 2007 (UTC)

No problem, I have finished cleaning up the article now and have removed the "In use" tag. I have also added back in the information you added earlier today about "allies". You might need to check a couple of the wiki links though as two of them I was not totally sure they were the right football clubs. cheers, ♦Tangerines♦·Talk 02:26, 6 October 2007 (UTC)

Despite you tried to offend me several times, I would like to explain myself at your talk one more time. This is not about me "denying" or saying that you write deliberately false articles. You are a strongly opinionated person and take some issues very close to heart and want the world know about certain things that the world was not informed of. That's as good a motivation to create content as any other. I just disagree with some of the ways of your presentations. I don't follow your edits and only run into your articles when prompted to them from elsewhere, like DYK suggestion page, noticeboards, links from other articles, etc. But another no less than myself experienced editor seems to try to help you in your first steps. He could have easily corrected a few easy to address things in your articles if he wanted. --Irpen 04:39, 3 October 2007 (UTC)

Under the criteria for speedy deletion, articles that do not assert the subject's importance or significance may be deleted at any time. Please see the guidelines for what is generally accepted as notable.

To contest the tagging and request that administrators wait before possibly deleting Jozef Batory, please affix the template {{hangon}} to the page, and put a note on its talk page. If the article has already been deleted, see the advice and instructions at WP:WMD.

Hi Tymek, certainly I'm not offended. I believe it does not matter if we like the person or not.

Speedy deletion of Gryf Torun

A tag has been placed on Gryf Torun requesting that it be speedily deleted from Wikipedia. This has been done under section A7 of the criteria for speedy deletion, because the article appears to be about a club, but it does not indicate how or why the subject is notable: that is, why an article about that subject should be included in an encyclopedia. Under the criteria for speedy deletion, articles that do not indicate the subject's importance or significance may be deleted at any time. Please see the guidelines for what is generally accepted as notable, as well as our subject-specific notability guidelines for people and for organizations.

If you think that this notice was placed here in error, you may contest the deletion by adding {{hangon}} to the top of the page that has been nominated for deletion (just below the existing speedy deletion or "db" tag), coupled with adding a note on the talk page explaining your position, but be aware that once tagged for speedy deletion, if the article meets the criterion it may be deleted without delay. Please do not remove the speedy deletion tag yourself, but don't hesitate to add information to the article that would would render it more in conformance with Wikipedia's policies and guidelines. Lastly, please note that if the article does get deleted, you can contact one of these admins to request that a copy be emailed to you. Paste (talk) 17:28, 16 April 2008 (UTC)

Apatia

The article was deleted in accordance with the criteria for speedy deletion, specifically #A7, with no assertations of notability. If you read that criterion, you'll see that the original article did not appear to make any claims, technical or reasonable. FYI, when starting a stub article, it's best to make sure you make clear the notable facts about the subject in the beginning. If you sufficiently address at least one of these right away in the beginning of the article, even without references, it can't be a legitimate candidate for speedy deletion. (For music-related topics, check out Wikipedia's criteria for music-related notability. Just so you know, CSD candidates need not undergo a discussion before deletion; hence the "speedy" part of it.) Dropping the deleting admin a note, as you did, or contacting another admin, are good ways to get the article back, if there's some reason to think the article can circumvent the CSD.

Strange edits

Hi, Tymek, the article is called Racism and football, not Racism and communism so the info you are trying to push is clearly off-topic. And to call Never Again International an extreme organisation, sounds very similar to extreme-right rethoric too me.

P.S. chat with User:Krzyzowiec led me to discovery of Jan Mosdorf‎ article, which was created by you. May I suggest not to use Holocaust denial (IHR) and openly nationalistic portals (nacjonalista.pl) as reference here in Wiki. Cheers. M0RD00R (talk) 01:18, 5 May 2008 (UTC)

Your activities here remind me of contributions of user Krzyzowiec, with only one exeption - you represent a different POV. I will not accept so-called advice from extreme left-wing, anti-Polish POV-pusher as you. Cheers. BTW Nigdy Wiecej is not associated with Never Again International, read a little before you write lies. Tymek (talk) 01:28, 5 May 2008 (UTC)

Of course you don't have to listen to my advice. But WP:NPA, WP:CIV, WP:AGF is a jolly good read. Take your time to read it, because clearly you are not familiar with it, or ignore those policies on purpose. Cheers. M0RD00R (talk) 01:35, 5 May 2008 (UTC)

Śląska klasa A - 1921 - 1926 i puchary Fliegera

Cześć, Twoje arty na wiki są świetne i unikatowe, jak np. Lower Level Football Leagues in Interwar Poland. Właśnie chciałem zapytać jak to było z tą Klasą A na polskim Śląsku w międzywojniu, bo czytam tylko pośrednie teksty o tym (Enc. Gowarzewskiego o Ruchu) i nie mam pełnego obrazu jak to właściwie było. Pewien użytkownik na polskiej wiki pisał kiedyś, że już w 1921 próbowano przeprowadzić polskie mistrzostwo okręgu Górnego Śląska i prowadziła w nich Pogoń Katowice, ale wszędzie gdzie czytam, to przewija się stwierdzenie, że okręg ten powołano do życia dopiero w lutym 1922, w okręgowych mistrzostwach brało udział 38 drużyn w 4 grupach, ostatecznie wygrał Ruch, ale jak do tego doszło to nie wiem. Druga edycja śląskiej klasy A rozpoczęła się jeszcze w 1922 a skończyła już przed wiosną 1923, takie jesień-zima, a mistrzem została Iskra Siemianowice. Jesienią zreorgenizowano rozgrywki, bo doszło kilka klubów z niemieckich rozgrywek, do klasy A dołączyły katowickie Diana i 1.FC. W 1924 klasę A rozegrano dopiero po Igrzyskach Olimpijskich, jesienią, a dokończono w styczniu roku następnego (zaległe mecze), wygrał AKS i za to grał w MP w 1925. W 1925 nie było klasy A, za to był Puchar Stanisława Fliegera, w finale w styczniu 1926 wygrał Ruch i za to zagrał w pierwszej edycji Pucharu Polski w 1926. W 1926 rozegrano też po roku przerwy klasę A, wygrał Ruch, a jeszcze pod koniec 1926 roku odbył się znowu Puchar Stanisława Fliegera i znowu wygrał Ruch. Tak to było? Dałoby radę jakoś to zebrać, poprawić i coś skrobnąć w powyższym artykule? :) Pozdrawiam, D_T_G (PL) 18:57, 9 May 2008 (UTC)

Ciekawe archiwum! Oj, będzie sobie na czym popsuć wzrok ;) Ale tak wracając do tego artykułu o ligach okręgowych w międzywojniu to po oczach rzuca się tam czerwony link Koszarawa Żywiec, gdy tymczasem artykuł na pl-wiki pl:Koszarawa Żywiec jest całkiem, całkiem. Na prawdę nie wiedziałem, że grali w lidze śląskiej... ciekawe czy jakieś inne kluby z małopolskiego też grały, z Białej może... Pozdrawiam, D_T_G (PL) 22:17, 9 May 2008 (UTC)

Post

On Lukas Podolski and Miroslav Klose: yes, Klose said he felt a German. Yes, Klose's family and the Jesch family (maternal family of Miroslav Klose) were subjected to Polonization with force. You can already see that in the name: "Kloze" in Polish administration, but changed back to the original "Josef Klose" by his father in 1986 in West Germany. You say you do not want an edit war, but you keep changing things such as "Opole" not being allowed to be called "Oppeln", while it officially is a bilingual community with bilingual rights under Polish law even. This is not 1970 communist Poland, and your edits are unwanted. Yes, Klose said he felt a German in the interview. But of course due to the Communist Polish pressure against ethnic Germans of Silesia, he was forced to be raised in the Polish language, otherwise they might have faced reprisals. By the way, I like Poland and the Polish people and Polish culture and Royal Polish history, but not the silly 19th century extreme forms of nationalism found among Poles. Klose and Podolski are German Silesians with much Slavic Silesian and Polish influences too. But Herbert Hupka is not "Polish" either, just because his last name sounds Slavic Silesian, either. Let's stop the edits bakc and forth and read the sources in Der Spiegel and other history. I do not care what they choose, but if they consider themselves as Germans, they are Germans. Not what Poles would like them to be. The late Adam Ledwon (r.i.p.) was a German Silesian in reality too, but he felt more Polish, as he is German by ancestry, but raised in schools and society of Communist Poland.

Was my edit controversial? In what way? And do I have to explain all my edits on talk pages? Thank you. Tymek (talk) 22:17, 19 June 2008 (UTC)

Given that there was a heated discussion between a number of editors in which you did not participate, yes, I'd say your edit was controversial. Did you not read the talk page before you made that edit? If not, why did you revert an edit marked as reverting original research? It would have been a good idea to use the talk page or the edit summary to explain why you thought it was not original research, or if you concurred that it was in fact original research, why you were restoring an edit that violated WP policy. In any circumstance, it is always a good idea to use an edit summary. Gamaliel (talk) 22:51, 19 June 2008 (UTC)

It is your opinion that my edit was controversial, in my opinion it was not. And yes, I read the talk page, a little good faith would be nice, as this is one of key policies. Tymek (talk) 22:59, 19 June 2008 (UTC)

I assume your edit was made in good faith. I merely ask you to explain the reasoning behind this good faith edit for the benefit of other editors, especially when you involve yourself in an ongoing, heated edit war. I ask nothing that is not considered a regular, accepted editing practice on Wikipedia. Gamaliel (talk) 23:02, 19 June 2008 (UTC)

Thank you for assuming good faith, it is better than before. Now, a question. Is there a policy that says I have to explain my edits on talk pages of articles and participate in discussions there? Otherwise, you do ask a thing that is not considered a regular practice. Tymek (talk) 23:15, 19 June 2008 (UTC)

I find it difficult to believe that you have been editing Wikipedia for two years and do not know it is standard, accepted practice to encourage the use of edit summaries and article talk pages, especially when making controversial edits in a heated edit war. If you are somehow simply unaware of this, then let me assure you that this is indeed the case and I strongly encourage you to use edit summaries and talk pages from now on. Thank you. Gamaliel (talk) 23:18, 19 June 2008 (UTC)

I fail to see where I have not assumed good faith. I assume all your edits were made in good faith, I merely seek to get you to adhere to standard Wikipedia practices that encourage collaboration between editors of good faith. And I note that WP:AGF is a guideline, not a policy, but it is something we encourage of all contributors nonetheless. Gamaliel (talk) 23:55, 19 June 2008 (UTC)

Super, spróbuj proszę więc ten króciutki wiersz Adolfa Fierli:

Kopalnie

Zwiedzałem dzisiaj boży świat

Ukorzon i błagalnie;

I z oczu rzęśne spadły łzy

Płynące nieprzerwalnie,

Gdyż wszystkich wiosek cichy łan

Zmieniono na kopalnie.

Zwiedzałem cichy zagon dziś

Gdzie dawniej rosły kwiaty,

I gdzię się baran z owcą pasł

Przy ścieżce obok chaty,

A gdzie dziś zamiast prostych traw

Dzień krwawej ryczy spłaty.

Stanąłem dzisiaj w szybu próg

W udręki dusznej chwili,

Gdy czarni od spiekoty prac

Do sztolni się spuścili.

I duszą targnął suchy ból:

Wow, świetna robota, już wkleiłem. Wielkie dzięki, Radegastów możemy dać kilka, RC jest chyba najtańszym krajem w UE jeśli chodzi o piwko. Dolar (20 koron) za 0.5 l w knajpie. Poza tym dłużę Ci jeszcze jednego browarka za Olzę. Na pewno kiedyś wpadnij, w takim razie daj znać do przodu. - Darwinek (talk) 19:37, 14 July 2008 (UTC)

Hello again. Teraz kolej na Pawła Kubisza i jego DYKa. Kubisz to jeden z najważniejszych poetów zaolziańskich, burzyciel numer jeden. Pisał często gwarą, ale na pewno zrozumiesz. Słowo rzymkocić oznacza wydawanie głośnych dzwięków, hałasowanie. Oto fragment, o którego tłumaczenie Cię proszę:

Twardo, silno, uporczywie -

Chcym rzymkocić słowym w gniywie,

Chcym buntować, sie... przeklinać

W ziąb i boleść słowa scinać!

W poszarpaniu całej duszy,

Wszystko w bezpamięć rozkruszyć,

Strzaskać, zburzyć, potarasić -

W nic ostatni czuci zgasić!

Wielkie dzięki! Nagroda to trzeci Radegast :). Artykuł o Kubiszu wydłużę lada chwila, już mam wersję roboczą w sandboksie. - Darwinek (talk) 17:27, 16 July 2008 (UTC)

Jest świetnie! Już zedytowałem artykuł, możesz zajrzeć i przeczytać, los Kubisza i jego życie są dla Zaolzia całkiem charakterystyczne. Jeżeli chodzi o tłumaczenia, to w następnych dniach-tygodniu poproszę jeszcze o przetłumaczenie fragmentów Jasiczka, Przeczka i Wawrosza a potem dam Ci znów spokój na cały boski rok. :) - Darwinek (talk) 19:47, 16 July 2008 (UTC)

Translation

Cześć. Proszę teraz o krótki fragment wierszu obozowego Gustawa Przeczka.

Kij do krwi smaga przygięte plecy,

W brzuch kopie ciężki but -

Psem tylko jesteś i numer znaczysz,

Dłoń twą kolczasty skował drut.

O straszną śmierć się ocierasz co dzień,

Zbrodniczy gaz cię zwala z nóg,

Straciłeś siebie - a w ciągłym głodzie

We mgle się stracił dobry Bóg.

Chciałbym nominować do DYKa. Normalnie nie mam problemów z tłumaczeniem cytatów, ale do poezji brakuje mi lepszego angielskiego. Wielkie dzięki. - Darwinek (talk) 15:14, 23 July 2008 (UTC)

Obórki

Hi Lysy, where did you find info that massacre in Oborki was perpetrated by the Germans? Look here [9] and here [10]. I hope you have no doubts and you will restore it. Tymek (talk) 05:12, 27 July 2008 (UTC)

Hi. First of all, allow me for a general comment on the article: I'm sure you'll agree that with such a sensitive issue, we have to be very careful with the selection of sources. Recent research and publications bring new developments and it's important to remember that the opinions expressed 20 years ago may be negated by recent findings. Generally, the article suffers from poor sources selection, web pages, press articles, older or politically motivated publications. I think we should try to stick to recent publications of professional historians where possible.

Back to Obórki pacification, first let me note that both links you provide confirm that the action was conducted by Ukrainian police, not by UPA. Ukrainian police was under German command, even the webpage of wachowscy.com that you provided confirms that the action was "commanded by a German". It also does not states whether the actual shooting was done by Germans or Ukrainians but says: "jeden z oprawców strzelał ofierze w tył głowy". As for Piotrowski, while I generally value his works, in this case he does not provide a detailed account of what happened, and only generally mentions the incident. On the other hand Polish historians such as Grzegorz Motyka of IPN or Andrzej Sowa of Jagiellonian University state that not only the action was commanded by Germans but also Germans personally murdered the Poles. This is confirmed by Feliks Trusiewicz. You may note, that the villagers were herded and murdered in Trusiewicz's barn. I'll add relevant references to the article. Here is e.g. what Sowa writes: "W historiografii polskiej winą za większość z tych represji obciążano nacjonalistów ukraińskich", and: "Tak też było w wypadku mordu, dokonanego 13 i 14 listopada 1942 r. na 53 osobach w Obórkach w pow. łuckim, gdzie pacyfikacja przeprowadzana była przez policję ukraińską, ale egzekucji osobiście dokonywali nadzorujący ją Niemcy". I hope that explains the situation. --Lysy^talk 10:06, 27 July 2008 (UTC)

Yes, I've seen the page before, thanks. --Lysy^talk 05:55, 28 July 2008 (UTC)

Please note, regarding your malicious and false claim of vandalism here and here, that I was in themiddle of fixing refs that had gotten unformatted. This occurred while I was correcting mistaken author attributions in the refs Piotrus added. In the middle, a bot came in, causing a bit of confusion. While I was further attempting a fix, you jumped in within four minutes with and uncivil, malicious and bogus charge of "vandalism."

Please note that, asscording to WP:CIVIL, one form of incivility is "Referring to other editors' good-faith changes as vandalism". You have made endless false charges regarding my edits recentlty, including malicious and bogus claims (wghich you cannot back up) that I have consider "all Poles antisemites."

I request that you cease your ongoing harassment with these bogus, malicious and defamatory claims immediately. It will no longer be tolerated. Boodlesthecat ^Meow? 18:13, 4 September 2008 (UTC)

Speedy deletion of Markot

A tag has been placed on Markot requesting that it be speedily deleted from Wikipedia. This has been done under section A7 of the criteria for speedy deletion, because the article appears to be about a person or group of people, but it does not indicate how or why the subject is notable: that is, why an article about that subject should be included in an encyclopedia. Under the criteria for speedy deletion, articles that do not indicate the subject's importance or significance may be deleted at any time. Please see the guidelines for what is generally accepted as notable, as well as our subject-specific notability guideline for biographies.

If you think that this notice was placed here in error, you may contest the deletion by adding {{hangon}} to the top of the page that has been nominated for deletion (just below the existing speedy deletion or "db" tag), coupled with adding a note on the talk page explaining your position, but be aware that once tagged for speedy deletion, if the article meets the criterion it may be deleted without delay. Please do not remove the speedy deletion tag yourself, but don't hesitate to add information to the article that would would render it more in conformance with Wikipedia's policies and guidelines. Lastly, please note that if the article does get deleted, you can contact one of these admins to request that a copy be emailed to you. Bongomatic (talk) 06:02, 25 September 2008 (UTC)

And what does this criticism have to do with massacre of Brzostowica Mala? Tymek (talk) 02:40, 13 October 2008 (UTC)

Read what is already written on the AfD. The criticism is a commentary on the potential quality of the IPN as a source. It is a government agency, not an academic source. Government agencies, particularly prosecutorial ones, are not considered the most reliable of sources for historical articles. And in additon, as I cited, the IPN has been criticized for having a right wing nationliats POV. Boodlesthecat ^Meow? 03:15, 13 October 2008 (UTC)

OK, I got it now. Next time, whenever I want to supply a source to an article, I will ask you if the source has been criticized by Haaretz or Grabowski. This should be a common policy of Wikipedia. Only sources approved by Haaretz and Grabowski please. Those sources criticized by Haaretz are void. Tymek (talk) 15:22, 13 October 2008 (UTC)

If you have a counter-view regarding sources, feel free to express it. However, as I stated above, do not order me to "keep my opinions to myself," especially on a page like an AfD, where editors give opinions based on a reading of sources, among other things.

Gazeta Polska – źródło

Dzień dobry Tymku! Mamy mały problem w polskiej Wikipedii, a zupełnie nieświadomie stałeś się jego sprawcą. Otóż 18 kwietnia dodałeś do hasła Huta Pieniacka massacre artykuł "Opowieść o zamordowanej wiosce" ("Story of a murdered village"), article by Wojciech Orlowski, published on April 9, 2008 in Gazeta Polska weekly. Po pewnym czasie dokładnie po tej edycji [12] artykuł stał się źródłem informacji jako przypis [7] (nie rozimiem jak to możliwe, bo w kodzie cały czas jest {ref|Ilyushyn}, ale nie do końca znam mechanizmy Wikipedii). To samo źródło i informacja, jako wiarygodne, zostały dopisane do hasła w polskiej wersji masakra w Hucie Pieniackiej. Nikt nie zna treści artykułu, ponieważ jest niedostępny w sieci i trudno jest konflikt rozwiązać. Czy mógłbyś potwierdzić lub zaprzeczyć na ile treść artykułu pozwala na użycie go jako źródła, że według historyków ukraińskich odpowiedzialny za masakrę jest batalion policji niemieckiej.

• Editors are reminded that when editing in subject areas of bitter and long-standing real-world conflict, it is all the more important to comply with Wikipedia policies such as assuming good faith of all editors including those on the other side of the real-world disputes, writing with a neutral point of view, remaining civil and avoiding personal attacks, utilizing reliable sources for contentious or disputed assertions, and resorting to dispute resolution where necessary. Wikipedia cannot solve any of the national, ethnic, historical, or cultural disputes that exists among the nations and peoples of Eastern Europe or any other real-world conflict. What Wikipedia can do is aspire to provide neutral, encyclopedic coverage about the areas of dispute and the peoples involved in it, which may lead to a broader understanding of the issues and the positions of all parties to the conflict. The contributions of all good-faith editors on these articles who contribute with this goal in mind are appreciated.
• Editors who find it difficult to edit a particular article or topic from a neutral point of view and adhere to other Wikipedia policies are counseled that they may sometimes need or wish to step away temporarily from that article or subject area. Sometimes, editors in this position may best devote some of their knowledge, interest, and effort to creating or editing other articles that may relate to the same broad subject-matter as the dispute, but are less immediately contentious. For example, an editor whose ethnicity, cultural heritage, or personal interests relate to Group X and who finds himself or herself caught up in edit-warring on an article about a recent war between Group X and Group Y, may wish to disengage from that article for a time and instead focus on a different aspect of the history, civilization, and cultural heritage of Group X.
• Administrators who utilize the #wikipedia-en-admins IRC channel (or other IRC channels in which Wikipedia-related matters are discussed) are reminded that while the #admins channel has legitimate purposes, they should bear in mind whenever using it:

(A) That discussing an issue on IRC necessarily excludes those editors who do not use IRC from the discussion (and excludes almost all non-administrators from the discussion if it takes place in #wikipedia-en-admins), and therefore, such IRC discussion is never the equivalent of on-wiki discussion or dispute resolution;

(B) That the practice of off-wiki "block-shopping" is strongly deprecated, and that except where there is an urgent situation and no reasonable administrator could disagree with an immediate block (e.g., ongoing blatant or pagemove vandalism or ongoing serious BLP violations), the appropriate response for an administrator asked on IRC to block an editor is to refer the requester to the appropriate on-wiki noticeboard; and

(C) That even though the relationship between the "wikipedia" IRC channels and Wikipedia remains ambiguous, any incidents of personal attacks or crass behavior in #wikipedia-en-admins are unwelcome and reflect adversely on all users of the channel.

• Following the conclusion of this case, the Committee will open a general request for comments regarding the arbitration enforcement process, particularly where general sanctions are concerned. Having received such comments, the Committee will consider instituting suitable reforms to the enforcement process.
• Following the conclusion of this case, the Committee will convene a community discussion for the purpose of developing proposed reforms to the content dispute resolution process.
• Following the conclusion of this case, the Committee will publish guides to presenting evidence and using the workshop page.

Please see the above link to read the full case.

For the Arbitration Committee,

1981 demonstrations

Hi, Tymek, and Happy New Year! (Maybe using diacritics could be a New Year's resolution?) Anyway, no worries on that. On the substantive issues: as far as I know, it's quite difficult to formally leave the RCC - either excommunication or a declaration before a bishop; otherwise the Church considers one to still be a member. Of course, in surveys, former Catholics can still answer something other than "Catholic". In any case, I've found three estimates (20 million Polish Catholics in 1939 (though of course within different borders), 30 million in 1978 and 34.4 million in 2003) - by whatever measure, the RCC was clearly larger than Solidarity. So I agree with your change (perhaps "non-religious" should become "secular", but either is fine). At first glance, the other article looks OK too, but I'll make some minor fixes as time permits. Anyway, it's great that you're chronicling these events - the '80s were a pretty miserable time in Eastern Europe (I only know the Poland of those days through the films of Kieślowski, though) - not at the traumatic level of the early Stalinist period perhaps, but every bit as awful for the human soul - the gray, grinding misery of the command economy heaving its last breaths. Thank God it's all over. - Biruitorul ^Talk 03:51, 5 January 2009 (UTC)

While the contempt for dissenting opinions shown by those MEPs is indeed chilling, I think eventually this farce called the EU will unravel - in a democratic system (which it still is, more or less), you can only go so far with these sorts of games before the people have had enough. I think 2009 could be a very bad year for the EU (and consequently a very good year for the rest of us): our friend Mr Klaus will do all he can to mess up the proceedings; turnout at the June "elections" will be pitifully low; the German election could cause some nice distraction; the financial crisis could lead to Greece-like riots in Spain, Italy and elsewhere, further undermining the Euro; and the shadow of Lisbon will hang over everything - I predict (rather boldly at present) that Lisbon will fail, throwing the machine even further into crisis.

A bit of a plug: if you don't already, you should look at EU Referendum, at least when there's big EU-related news. Two recent posts to whet your appetite; indeed the second is worth quoting:

"By such tiny, barely-reported steps, each separated by many years, does the process gradually ensnare us so that, decades later, we look up and ask 'how the hell did we get into this mess?' By then it is too late.

"The genius of engrenage, though, is that nobody notices. Each step can be justified, in isolation, on apparently good grounds – as long as no one understands that it is a process, and the end point is economic and then political integration. By such means are we thus enslaved."

(For a fuller explanation of engrenage, see here, here & here. Oh, and sorry for the completely off-topic post!) - Biruitorul ^Talk 05:07, 5 January 2009 (UTC)

Witaj, macie w angielskiej Wiki niezłe artykuły o UPA.

Udało się jednak stworzyć parę artów o zbrodniach UPA, może dałbyś radę je wrzucić do angielskiej Wiki? Są tu i tu.

Polish Population 1939

There was no 1939 Statistical Handbook published in Poland, the last one published before the war was in 1938. In 1941 the Polish government in London published a handbook of statistics. I have a photocopy. They list the 8/31/39 estimated population including Zalolzie as 35,339,00. I always try to have a printed copy of the sources I cite.--Woogie10w (talk) 00:49, 3 February 2009 (UTC) I checked the figures, Without Zalolzie on Jan 1, 1939 the population was 34,849,000, with Zalolzie 35,100,000. On Aug 31, 1939 the population without Zalolzie was 35,100,000 and with Zalolozie 35,339,000. The population of Zalolzie was 240,000 and the estimated natural increase in the population for all of Poland from Jan-Aug 1939 was 250,000. I hope this helps.--Woogie10w (talk) 02:08, 3 February 2009 (UTC)

That 1939 edition never made to the west, in any case you see how the confusion arose. Zalolzie had 240,000 and the natural increase from Jan-Dec 39 was 250,000. In any case historians outside of Poland never include Zalolzie with Poland, just like the Sudetenland is not considered part of Germany. It is considered occupied Czech territory--Woogie10w (talk) 10:43, 3 February 2009 (UTC)

Adding a new category for SURVIVORS of the Holocaust

Hi Tymek: Regarding the two CfDs at Wikipedia:Categories for discussion/Log/2009 March 12#Category:Holocaust victims and Wikipedia:Categories for discussion/Log/2009 March 12#Category:Nazi concentration camp victims, while I agree that the categories need to be sharpened, but if they are going to become categories about people who DIED only in Category:People who died in The Holocaust and Category:People who died in Nazi concentration camps respectively, then in all fairness and following good logic and historiography, following that reasoning, there should now therefore be two categories. ONE for those who DIED and one for those survivors who LIVED such as Category:Holocaust victims who survived and Category:Survivors of Nazi concentration camps that would allow for that. I am positive you will agree and kindly take a look at the two above CfD discussions again and note that that should be so, that both those who died and those who survived and lived, and who were/are of course notable, such as Elie Wiesel; Joel Teitelbaum; Yekusiel Yehudah Halberstam and many others that I know as being important to Jewish history, and there are many others like this from many other groups. It would be a great shame and travesty if those names were expunged only "because" they survived and escaped the fate the Nazis had wanted for them by having lived and not died in the Holocaust and/or the death and concentration camps. Thank you, IZAK (talk) 06:15, 16 March 2009 (UTC)

Miroslav Klose

Hello, I need your help with the Miroslav Klose article. The article clearly states "Klose himself said in a recent interview to Przegląd Sportowy that it would be best for him not to be called German or Polish, but European". When I changed "German" to "European" my edits were instantly reverted without any real explination. Many German posters insist on listing him simply as a "German footballer" despite Klose's own words claiming he does not want to be classified this way. I understand he plays in Germany but he was born in Poland, his mother was Polish and his father (German descent) was born in Poland, speaks Polish and played professional football in Poland. Also, Miroslav speaks Polish at home, has a Polish wife, and played professional football in Poland early in his career. I would like to honor Kloses' own decleration of his nationality. If listing him as "European" is a problem, then I would at least like to see it as "Polish-German" or "German-Polish" because lisitng him as only "German" does not properly reflect his full background. Your assistance is greatly appreciated. Beckenbauer1974 (talk)

Zbrodnie nacjnalistów ukraińskich

Witaj, mógłbyś uzupełnić artykuł o nacjonalizmie ukraińskim o tekst z siemaszków? Źródło. Jest tam przedmowa po angielsku wystarczy przeredagować. W angielskim arcie o nacjonalizmie są fałszywe dane pisze o 35 tys. zamordowanych. Tymczasem na Wołyniu zabito 60 tys, w Małopolsce Wschodniej kolejne 60 tys. czyli w sumie liczba ofiar UPA jest 120 tys. Działania polskie były odwetem a nie ludobójstwem i w ich wyniku zginęło około 10 tys Ukraińców. Pozdrawiam--Paweł5586 (talk) 14:13, 5 April 2009 (UTC)

Hasło Lwów, też wypadałoby u anglików poprawić, owszem założone przez Daniela Halickiego, ale na terenie polskich Grodów Czerwieńskich. Kazimierz Wielki nie zajął go militarnie, ale przejął na podstawie umowy, i lokował na prawie magdeburskim.--Paweł5586 (talk) 11:24, 10 April 2009 (UTC)

Dobra robota, oczywiście historycy angielscy najlepiej widziani, ale Z tego co zauważyłem, to Ukraińcy nie krępują się by używać swoich źródeł, więc gdzie nie ma anglików to wrzucaj naszych. Prośba o zaglądnięcie do zbrodni w Pawłokomie w angielskim haśle.
