Regarding Prezi presentations
Hey Piotrus, thanks for considering my prezis to include in your series. I'd love to make them available on CC license, but the Prezi doesn't have any such option. For this reason I have made these 2 videos out of them here. I'm still trying to write to Prezi guys to make them available in CC license by clearly mentioning it. --SubhaUtter2me! 17:34, 4 February 2013 (UTC)
- I have added CC license in my prezis. Hoe that would do. And you are doing a great job, keep sharing --SubhaUtter2me! 18:01, 4 February 2013 (UTC) ;-)

Hi Piotrus, an interesting discussion is raised here.[1] It is often forgotten that Hitler's victims also included millions of Slavs.[2] Tobby72 (talk) 18:04, 4 February 2013 (UTC)
DYK nomination of First Battle of Warsaw (1794)
Hello! Your submission of First Battle of Warsaw (1794) at the Did You Know nominations page has been reviewed, and some issues with it may need to be clarified.

Tadeusz Kościuszko page
(Gulp, gulp, gulp -- Ahhhhhh.....) Thanks for the Beer! -- Regarding the Tadeusz Kościuszko page: a Good Article? Well, I'd have to go over the content more thoroughly first before I'd nominate it for a Good Article, but it seems you are right. Thanks for the award. Looking at your user page I see you have accumulated quite a few of them. Just want to say thanks for that too. You have done much work. Awards say much more for a user than an edit count does, however one can't ignore yours. Adding references, citations and building bibliographies for articles is important and is why I spend much of my time adding them, allowing others, esp new comers, to come in and start writing AND citing.

Is it really very bad???
Hi Pitorus!!! This is Ajayupai95 with a small query... Was my article The Respawnables worthy of a proposed deletion??? I understand I attached bare urls and the referencing is poor but wouldn't that require a clean up and a whole bunch of other tags??? I just didn't think it was up for deletion, but hen again it's only my opinion... I just wanted to know if it really was bad enough for deletion... Thanks Ajayupai95 (talk) 01:14, 16 February 2013 (UTC)
- Thanks a million Mr. Pitorus!!!! It really feels great when you give a response like that and I've already gone thru WP: Notability and will be updating my article within a few days... I want to thank you cause what you say means a lot!!! Btw are you responsible for looking into Th Economist as a reference source??? Can u plz advice me on that because I am an avid reader of the magazine and wish I help and contribute... Anyways Thnak You once again.... Ajayupai95 (talk) 16:30, 16 February 2013 (UTC)
Hi there. I'm afraid I have had to remove some of the DYK articles you have claimed, as they were very much last year's articles. If you have any questions, please contact me on my talk page. Thanks, J Milburn (talk) 22:40, 17 February 2013 (UTC)
- No. You score points in the round the content is promoted, but only if the content has been worked on and nominated this year. So, something you nominate now that doesn't pass until March will be eligible for next round, but something you wrote last year will not be eligible no matter when it passes. This is the same rule as last year. J Milburn (talk) 13:43, 18 February 2013 (UTC)

Thx for replying so quickly on Talk:Stephen Báthory
Do you agree that it was only a split between the Polish nobles and the Lithuanian nobles didn't participate in the vote?
I think the spilt was a consequence of the fight between Zborowski family and the Zamoyski family because of the execution of Samuel Zborowski. Beside that there was international interests: the interests of the Holy Roman Empire and the Teutonic Order on one side and Kingdom of Sweden on the other. At the same time the election went on in the turmoil of the clash between Reformation and Counter-Reformation.

- Greetings. I wonder why You changed the name from Jan de Jani to Jan z Jani without first writing me and at least ask for the reference. First, You are completely wrong about french spelling since it is latin. Secondly, it is a family of duch origin in Pomerania wit proper name Jan von der Jane (or Yane). By this, it should be clear that Jan z Jani is not a proper name as You think but polonized. Also, we have to consider that we are talking about medieval times and we should then spell names in correct way as they where spelled also by polish. If You are not familiar with mediaval history of Poland, please ask before You change anything. Also, if You like to imporove the grammar, YUou are most welcome. The art is not long so instead of putting tags, You could do something more usefull. Thank You for reading. Best regards,camdan 12:50, 26 February 2013 (UTC)

WikiCup 2013 February newsletter
Round 1 is now over. The top 64 scorers have progressed to round 2, where they have been randomly split into eight pools of eight. At the end of April, the top two from each pool, as well as the 16 highest scorers from those remaining, will progress to round 3. Commiserations to those eliminated; if you're interested in still being involved in the WikiCup, able and willing reviewers will always be needed, and if you're interested in getting involved with other collaborative projects, take a look at the WikiWomen's Month discussed below.
Round 1 saw 21 competitors with over 100 points, which is fantastic; that suggests that this year's competition is going to be highly competative. Our lower scores indicate this, too: A score of 19 was required to reach round 2, which was significantly higher than the 11 points required in 2012 and 8 points required in 2011. The score needed to reach round 3 will be higher, and may depend on pool groupings. In 2011, 41 points secured a round 3 place, while in 2012, 65 was needed. Our top three scorers in round 1 were:
- Sturmvogel_66 (submissions), primarily for an array of warship GAs.
- Miyagawa (submissions), primarily for an array of did you knows and good articles, some of which were awarded bonus points.
- Casliber (submissions), due in no small part to Canis Minor, a featured article awarded a total of 340 points. A joint submission with Keilana (submissions), this is the highest scoring single article yet submitted in this year's competition.
Other contributors of note include:
- Sven Manguard (submissions), whose Portal:Massachusetts is the first featured portal this year. The featured portal process is one of the less well-known featured processes, and featured portals have traditionally had little impact on WikiCup scores.
- Sasata (submissions), whose Mycena aurantiomarginata was the first featured article this year.
- Muboshgu (submissions) and Wizardman (submissions), who both claimed points for articles in the Major League Baseball tie-breakers topic, the first topic points in the competition.
- Toa Nidhiki05 (submissions), who claimed for the first full good topic with the Casting Crowns studio albums topic.
Featured topics have still played no part in this year's competition, but once again, a curious contribution has been offered by The C of E (submissions): did you know that there is a Shit Brook in Shropshire? With April Fools' Day during the next round, there will probably be a good chance of more unusual articles...
March sees the WikiWomen's History Month, a series of collaborative efforts to aid the women's history WikiProject to coincide with Women's History Month and International Women's Day. A number of WikiCup participants have already started to take part. The project has a to-do list of articles needing work on the topic of women's history. Those interested in helping out with the project can find articles in need of attention there, or, alternatively, add articles to the list. Those interested in collaborating on articles on women's history are also welcome to use the WikiCup talk page to find others willing to lend a helping hand. Another collaboration currently running is an an effort from WikiCup participants to coordinate a number of Easter-themed did you know articles. Contributions are welcome!
A few final administrative issues. From now on, submission pages will need only a link to the article and a link to the nomination page, or, in the case of good article reviews, a link to the review only. See your submissions' page for details. This will hopefully make updating submission pages a little less tedious. If you are concerned that your nomination—whether it is at good article candidates, a featured process, or anywhere else—will not receive the necessary reviews, please list it on Wikipedia:WikiCup/Reviews. Questions are welcome on Wikipedia talk:WikiCup, and the judges are reachable on their talk pages or by email. Good luck!

Well done. I've touched on poverty in interwar Poland, but may I strongly urge you to incorporate this source? I think we can expand "Poverty had existed in communist Poland" into a couple of paragraphs at least. Also, there's some good information on the study of poverty in Poland, which actually dates back to the 1930s. - Biruitorul Talk 17:18, 5 March 2013 (UTC)

The main reason I'm active right now is because I read something really bias on a Wikipedia article and felt the need to do something about it as I've always viewed Wikipedia as informational and impartial unlike many websites on the internet.
It is about a line in the opening paragraph on this page: http://wiki.riteme.site/wiki/Karl_Marx 'He is also considered one of the greatest economists of all time.'
I've had a long discussion with another user on this page: http://wiki.riteme.site/wiki/Talk:Karl_Marx#Edit_request_on_5_March_2013
But after giving specifics as to the rules which this sentence has broken I have not heard anything. No other users have commented on the discussion.
Just to specify here, I believe it's broken these rules as quoted from Wikipedia:
"Be careful with weasel words
Weasel words are a way to give unconfirmable assertions the appearance of fact. "Houston is considered the friendliest city in the world." Really, now. Who says so? Do not use expressions like "is claimed", "is thought to be", and "is alleged," without saying specifically who is doing the claiming, thinking or alleging."[4]
"Avoid stating opinions as facts. Usually, articles will contain information about the significant opinions that have been expressed about their subjects. However, these opinions should not be stated in Wikipedia's voice. Rather, they should be attributed in the text to particular sources, or where justified, described as widespread views, etc. For example, an article should not state that "genocide is an evil action", but it may state that "genocide has been described by John X as the epitome of human evil.""[5]
As explained above (the word 'considered' is even used in the example of what not to use), such broad statements should not be made, instead the sentence should refer specifically to the people who say so. An accurate phrase would be for example "Vince Cable lists him as the 4th greatest economist of all time." That is an undisputed statement. Whereas the broad terminology which is currently used does not state who considers him to be one of the greatest economists of all time, and therefore leaves the impression it is a widespread belief which it is not, and the references do not support that either.
Another rule it breaks is:
"Avoid stating seriously contested assertions as facts. If different reliable sources make conflicting assertions about a matter, treat these assertions as opinions rather than facts, and do not present them as direct statements."[6]
If you view the Wikipedia page for Criticisms of Marxism[7] and scroll down to the economics section you can find numerous criticisms by economists who would not consider him to be a good economist at all which is completely counter to the statement.
So I'm just wondering what I should do now? I can't edit the page myself and no one else is contributing to the discussion so I don't know who to bring this up with now? I don't want to give up until that sentence is removed as I believe it's spreading disinformation and was added by users trying to promote his agenda. Not even Adam Smith has such a prominent and broad statement of greatness in the opening paragraph of his Wikipedia article so it seems totally inappropriate for such a controversial figure as Karl Marx to have this stated. In fact I don't think I've ever read a Wikipedia article about a person which has such a broad unspecified statement of praise in an opening paragraph.
Your help would be very much appreciated. Thanks.

Update: I'm going to bring up a dispute resolution as I noticed this has been talked about in depth before as well. Let me know if there is anything else you think I should do. Thanks! Hutchski (talk) 11:59, 11 March 2013 (UTC)
