Yugoslavia

My family is from Yugoslavia (now part of Croatia) and I am happy to see that you take such an interest in Yugoslavia! Could you tell me if Yugoslavia was neutral in World War Two. Please and thank-you. Laura 203.59.192.209 (talk) 09:07, 31 July 2008 (UTC)

Sure. Yugoslavia was not neutral in WW2, since it joined the Axis in 1941. Then, after a pro-British coup, it was invaded. So it was first neutral for a time (until 1941), then nominally Axis for a very short while, then Allied for the rest of the war. --DIREKTOR 10:35, 31 July 2008 (UTC)

Poreč – Parenzo

I'm very sorry for you, but the official name is Poreč – Parenzo: See page 3, like Buje-Buie, Novigrad-Cittanova, Pula-Pola, Rovinj-Rovigno, Umag-Umago and so on. I've just said that I think to know Istria better than you :-).--151.48.47.96 (talk) 13:32, 31 July 2008 (UTC)

_Sometimes? This is the Official Bullettin of Regione Istriana - Istarska Zupanija (another one official bilingual name...), wich stated by law the official bilingual names of many towns in Istria in his Statute! Please, read the document!--151.48.47.96 (talk) 13:46, 31 July 2008 (UTC)

Yes, but of course you and the other guy have this "Clanak 1.": FIRST, erase; THEN speak... also if you see that i know the question with my sources (biased, of course, even if is the Statute of Istria...). But... what do you think if I'll register myself another time here in this mad Wiki? I'll conduct myself pretty good, I hope :-)))!--151.48.47.96 (talk) 14:10, 31 July 2008 (UTC)

Mmm: I understand your point of view. I know that for you I can be a problem, because I'm not so easy to lock like the other two/three in Italy that speak of Istria and Dalmatia. I have my sources, much more than the others. Well: have funny, you and the other real friends of Italian memories! I'm going in my house in the Dolomites, where I'll spend the next two weeks.--151.48.47.96 (talk) 14:54, 31 July 2008 (UTC)

SHOCK

I am in shock... user:PaxEquilibrium has fallen !? See Misplaced Pages:Requests for checkuser/Case/PravdaRuss. He is puppeteer of banned User:PravdaRuss. I can't believe that ???--Rjecina (talk) 16:12, 31 July 2008 (UTC)

Pax!!? What the f...! He was a perfectly normal guy! I would never have thought... What is WITH these people! WHY do they create socks!? When you're banned, ok, I can understand, but just for the fun(?) of it!? I never even thought of something like that, I feel no overwhelming desire to agree with myself all day. --DIREKTOR 16:35, 31 July 2008 (UTC)

Before ban this genius has recreated article Croatian nation and ethnic cleansing and now I am having problems with deletion. Do you remember date of discussion about deletion of this article ?--Rjecina (talk) 22:27, 31 July 2008 (UTC)

I have added on Misplaced Pages:Croatian Wikipedians' notice board call for our discussion in article Miroslav Filipović. It is sad that only Zenanarh and Kubura are using noticeboard but....--Rjecina (talk) 18:58, 2 August 2008 (UTC)

It is sad truth that users are refusing to enter similar dispute.. Only if we call users interested in Holocaust and WWII we will recieve comments. Maybe we can call users which has writen comments in Jasenovac RFC (see talk page) ?--Rjecina (talk) 19:06, 2 August 2008 (UTC)

In my thinking our problem in article Miroslav Filipović is solved. Now we (you) need only to rewrite article.--Rjecina (talk) 19:54, 3 August 2008 (UTC)

This are not 2 short quotations. See my proposition on article talk page.--Rjecina (talk) 22:10, 3 August 2008 (UTC)

Hmm DIR, obviously you never had some deeper discussion with Pax if you think he was a perfectly normal guy. I had a few and decided never to change any word with him again. He was shameless pro-Serb POV pusher hidden behind long sentences in quite nice English with perfect talent how to avoid an opponent's arguments. In every such long discussion his talent and real nature were exposed. A maniac. I'm not shocked. And he'll come back definitely, maybe like Jesus Christ. BTW you cleaned up History of Dalmatia. Can you remember what did it look like before your intervention? Serbs here, Serbs there. In Dalmatia? That was his work, or of his earlier alter-ego HolyRomanEmperor. One more thing: Cetina as line between Croatian and Serbian settlers in Medieval is one of the Serbian mythomania ideas. It's sourced only by ONE source - DAI - in chapter which is considered to be the most controversial part of that writing - Byz. Emperor gave the name of Serbs to people settled eastern from Cetina just to mark a territory of his political influence directly after spreading of his influence there (Serbs in Raska were his direct vassals and servants, Croats were not). Zenanarh (talk) 11:49, 6 August 2008 (UTC)

Wow... Well I suppose I never did face him in a serious argument. He certainly seemed ok... Btw, Zen, have a look at the Pula talkpage --DIREKTOR 13:04, 6 August 2008 (UTC)

Look what Pax has writen to himself . user:KhoiKURČINA. is Pax . This is crazy ???--Rjecina (talk) 23:02, 10 August 2008 (UTC)

OMG LOOOL XD --DIREKTOR 23:09, 10 August 2008 (UTC)

User:Pupusinka is Pax. I can't understand reason for his hate which has started in last days of June or first days of July ? --Rjecina (talk) 23:35, 10 August 2008 (UTC)

Ustaše

In near future we can solve problems in all Ustaše related articles because all puppets are blocked or banned during next 10 days. It is right time that serious users find compromise about many articles--Rjecina (talk) 21:25, 31 July 2008 (UTC)

Agreed. --DIREKTOR 21:26, 31 July 2008 (UTC)

Map of Split

What program did you use to create this map? I'm thinking about creating a Zagreb map and your map of Split looks very professionally. Admiral Norton 16:42, 2 August 2008 (UTC)

Thanks nevertheless. Admiral Norton 16:47, 2 August 2008 (UTC)

Rjecina

Perhaps a severe lack of food has muddled my thinking, but can you help me figure out exactly what Rjecina's objections are in regards to the RfC? I have a hard time understanding some of what he writes on my best days, and right now I'm starving and in the middle of getting ready for a night out, so may be it's me... if you could clarify for me, I'd appreciate it. (and trust me I see the irony of going to the person he's in conflict with for help understanding his motivations, but you've dealt with him more than I have). AniMate 02:26, 3 August 2008 (UTC)

Also you need to clarify why you think the article on Magnum crimen isn't neutral. Is it because the article isn't neutral or is it because criticism is included that makes citing the book more difficult? Regardless, we don't just tag and run. We tag and explain why we left the tag on the article talk page. You know this is the way we do this. I think you may need to give yourself an objectivity test and perhaps back away for a while in order to look at things less passionately. AniMate 02:33, 3 August 2008 (UTC)

		Well done. It's difficult to be objective, and harder to acknowledge when one is not being objective. AniMate 11:58, 3 August 2008 (UTC)

Yeah, that I learned, the hard way... ;) thanks --DIREKTOR 13:13, 3 August 2008 (UTC)

PIO

It was here , but I don't think that Luigi 28 and this IP editor are the same person. AlasdairGreen27 (talk) 21:31, 6 August 2008 (UTC)

IP editor

Hi Direktor, please see my comment on ANI. Would you like me to begin watching and removing comments that are made from that IP range from now on? --mboverload@ 01:13, 9 August 2008 (UTC)

You're welcome =). Yeah, I think we can both see that you don't need to waste any more keyboard time on him. I will keep an eye on it - lol I might even setup a monitor at work to "ding" me when the article gets edited =P. I wonder if any of the bots would be able to provide this assistance. After all, all you want to do is revert comments from that IP block to that one page. --mboverload@ 02:00, 9 August 2008 (UTC)

Petar Brzica

Please can you let in peace articles in which I and banned editors are edit warring ? About use of quotations we will wait solution in article Miroslav Filipović ?--Rjecina (talk) 21:40, 9 August 2008 (UTC)

About Filipović his life and crimes we all agree, but about Brzica I am having problems. You have seen my 22 July question on Petar Brzica talk page. I am waiting for answer last 18 days but .....--Rjecina (talk) 21:47, 9 August 2008 (UTC)

Rijeka terror attack. Users is giving me free hand to remove deletion tag. Your thinking about this article ( for deletion or against) ?--Rjecina (talk) 01:07, 10 August 2008 (UTC)

Misplaced Pages:Articles for deletion/Rijeka terror attack

I really need help or your thinking about this ? To tell truth my english is problem for this discussion.--Rjecina (talk) 18:20, 10 August 2008 (UTC)

I'll see what this is about...

Bleiburg troll

Hey!

For crying out loud, let that IP editor argue with himself. He’s a troll and you’re giving him exactly what he wants by paying attention to him and replying to each and every one of his ridiculous personal attacks against you disguised as legitimate questions. The best thing to do is to simply ignore him and he’ll go away as soon as he has no one to argue with. There’s absolutely no argument that you can present to him that will make him change his mind about the article or your involvement in it. He’s not here for any good reason but you are, so don’t let him distract you from your other work on here.

Peace! SWik78 (talk • contribs) 15:15, 11 August 2008 (UTC)

I suppose I had to try and reason with him, that and he's kind of amusing, in a hick sort of way... ;) I also thought if I showed him that the OKW reports are not something the guy that posted them invented, he may be a bit less "diligent" in removing them and eventually go away. Now that he's had someone to vent his frustration on he might even give up. And, yes, I am seriously considering Psychiatry as a choice for specialization... :P --DIREKTOR 17:13, 11 August 2008 (UTC)

I thought you might like to know that I've rewritten and expanded this article. Your views would be appreciated (on the article talk page, please). -- ChrisO (talk) 20:32, 11 August 2008 (UTC)

Can you please make little translation from Croatian on English ? Text is:

Can you please look in article Serbs of Croatia section prominent individuals and tell me if I have made mistake in deleting few names. I am really tired of user:Mike Babic and his POV pushing.--Rjecina (talk) 20:03, 15 August 2008 (UTC)

Quotes in Filipović article

I assumed you had put this matter to bed, but it seems Rjecina will not let it drop: http://en.wikipedia.org/Wikipedia:Administrators%27_noticeboard/Incidents#Insults_again

(To save you ploughing through the whole section, his question is at the bottom of his post, near the end of the section.) Kirker (talk) 13:31, 16 August 2008 (UTC)

DIREKTOR, if you want to take issue with me or my behaviour, that’s fine. Anyone can have an opinion. But don’t advise me how to behave or you start to sound like that condescending guy Ricky81632 who’s been spewing rubbish recently. (Where did he crawl out from, by the way? He’s contributed sod all to any article I’ve ever seen.) And what makes you think I lost my temper? I would have thought that everything I say is rational, lucid and fair.

I was dealing with the sockpuppet tittle-tattle on a different page because that’s where Kubura had crept off and entered his complaint. (It’s all disappeared now.) And that’s where Ricky81632 “highly suggested” I should respond, if I may borrow his grotesque syntax. If it was the wrong place, perhaps someone needs to tell Kubura and Ricky.
