Main Page appearance: Pavle Đurišić

This is a note to let the main editors of Pavle Đurišić know that the article will be appearing as today's featured article on April 13, 2014. If this article needs any attention or maintenance, it would be preferable if that could be done before its appearance on the Main Page. If you prefer that the article appear as TFA on a different date, or not at present, please ask Bencherlite (talk · contribs). You can view the TFA blurb at Misplaced Pages:Today's featured article/April 13, 2014. If it needs tweaking, or if it needs rewording to match improvements to the article between now and its main page appearance, please edit it, following the instructions at Misplaced Pages:Today's featured article/requests/instructions. The blurb as it stands now is below:

Pavle Đurišić (1909–1945) was a Montenegrin Serb officer of the Royal Yugoslav Army who became a Chetnik commander during World War II. He was one of the commanders of the popular uprising against the Italians in Montenegro in July 1941, then collaborated with the Italians against the Yugoslav Partisans. In 1943, troops under his command carried out several massacres against the Muslim population of Bosnia, Herzegovina and the Sandžak and participated in an anti-Partisan offensive alongside Italian troops. He was captured by the Germans in May 1943, escaped and was recaptured. He was released after the Italian surrender and began collaborating with the Germans and the Serbian puppet government, creating the Montenegrin Volunteer Corps with German assistance. In late 1944, he was decorated with the Iron Cross 2nd Class by the German commander in Montenegro. He was killed by elements of the Armed Forces of the Independent State of Croatia near Banja Luka after he was captured in an apparent trap. Đurišić was a very able Yugoslav Chetnik leader, and his fighting skills were respected by his allies and opponents alike. (Full article...)

Pavle Đurišić

Will you please be so kind to present full quote from BBC article?--Antidiskriminator (talk) 11:10, 14 April 2014 (UTC)

I kindly remind you to please reply to my question.--Antidiskriminator (talk) 20:59, 19 April 2014 (UTC)

Jews and Communism

Hi DirectorProducer,

Is the article really intended to focus on parties that were members of Kominterm and that supported Soviet Union a'or' does Communism in the title refer to the general ideology of communism ?

Misplaced Pages:Administrators' noticeboard/Incidents

Your name has been mentioned in a post on Misplaced Pages:Administrators' noticeboard/Incidents#Outrageous edit-warring, ownership and censorship by editor Director on the article "Jews and Communism"--Toddy1 (talk) 19:00, 19 April 2014 (UTC)

Sock puppetry or other close relationship

Do you have a connection with User:DIREKTOR? I find it odd that both of you show up with the same Jews and Communism dispute. Jehochman 16:14, 28 April 2014 (UTC)

In any case, your account is blocked indefinitely, not for the sock or meat puppetry which is a strong possibility and also good grounds to block, but for tendentious POV pushing. The account will remain blocked until there is a discussion about how to prevent further recurrences. Please see this discussion and Misplaced Pages:Articles_for_deletion/Jews_and_Communism and Misplaced Pages:Deletion_review/Log/2014_March_14. Jehochman 16:17, 28 April 2014 (UTC)

Per assurances I've received on my talk page and an explanation from DIREKTOR, I have decided to unblock. Jehochman 22:41, 28 April 2014 (UTC)

Ownership and battleground mentality

Yesterday I decided to give you a second chance because I didn't have time to assemble the diffs requested by TParis, and because other editors such as Pharos were calmly working to fix the article. The following diffs show inappropriate editing. Should you accumulate more examples of a similar nature, you may be subject to a sanction. I strongly recommend that you avoid Jews and Communism or if you choose to continue editing there, you would help yourself greatly by following a 0RR rule. If you see an edit you don't like, calmly and politely explain why on the talk page, and wait for the other editor to respond. Try to allow others to make changes even if you disagree. I predict that some editors are going to be banned as a result of this conflict. If you follow my advice, you won't be one of them. If somebody else decides to behave badly--don't join them!

Your username

Hate to say it but I have to suggest we change our usernames a bit, or else this offensive nonsense isn't likely to stop. I've applied to usurp "Director". -- Director (talk) 06:57, 30 April 2014 (UTC)

Looks like it. I'll file a request for a name change to put these shenanigans to rest. --◅ PRODUCER (TALK) 12:26, 30 April 2014 (UTC)

• Your username has been changed; thanks. Be sure to use the new one when you log in from now on; if you have any devices that log you in automatically, you'll have to log out then log in again with the new username. Keep in mind that this rename is local only; your accounts on other wikis (like Commons, for example) are still attached to your old PRODUCER SUL. To reattach them, you'll have to go to each wiki individually, ask for a rename from the 'crats there (or from the stewards if the wiki has no 'crats) and then merge the accounts into your new SUL. Thanks, Writ Keeper ⚇♔ 16:49, 30 April 2014 (UTC)
  • Thanks for the heads up. --Potočnik (talk) 17:17, 30 April 2014 (UTC)
    • Thank you very much for doing that. It is quite helpful to eliminate the recurring suspicions which are reasonable, but incorrect. Jehochman 20:10, 30 April 2014 (UTC)
