==Image source problem with Image:BA16thcentury.jpg==
== Košice and Kosice ==
]
I have recently redirected the ] article to ] because (1) there is no other article that could be a source of confusion and (2) the city of Košice is significantly more important than the village of ], which might have a separate article in the future as you pointed out. However, you have just reverted my edit. Hoping that we reach a consensus, I would suggest that we redirect Kosice to Košice and add a disambiguation tag to the main article about Košice, leading to ]. In other words, we would use the procedure that is usually applied whenever one meaning of the word attracts much more interest than other meanings of the word. Please, see ] as an example. Would you agree with this proposal? ] 15:38, 1 July 2006 (UTC)
Thanks for uploading ''']'''. I noticed that the file's description page currently doesn't specify who created the content, so the ] status is unclear. If you did not create this file yourself, you will need to specify the owner of the copyright. If you obtained it from a website, then a link to the website from which it was taken, together with a restatement of that website's terms of use of its content, is usually sufficient information. However, if the copyright holder is different from the website's publisher, their copyright should also be acknowledged.


As well as adding the source, please add a proper copyright licensing tag if the file doesn't have one already. If you created/took the picture, audio, or video then the {{Tl|GFDL-self}} tag can be used to release it under the ]. If you believe the media meets the criteria at ], use a tag such as {{tlp|non-free fair use in|article name}} or one of the other tags listed at ]. See ] for the full list of copyright tags that you can use.
I would agree, if both towns were named Ko'''s'''ice (without š), but they are not, so that in this case, actually, Kosice should contain the text on the village and only - if any - a tag redirecting to Košice (with š) (do not forget that there is no reason to look for Ko'''s'''ice - the village - below the title Ko'''š'''ice). Therefore the disambiguation is the best solution - somewhere in the middle between only Kosice with a Košice-tag on the one hand and Košice with a Kosice-tag on the other hand.


If you have uploaded other files, consider checking that you have specified their source and tagged them, too. You can find a list of files you have uploaded by following . '''Unsourced and untagged images may be deleted one week after they have been tagged''', as described on ]. If the image is copyrighted under a ] (per ]) then '''the image will be deleted ] after 14:32, 21 July 2008 (UTC)'''. If you have any questions please ask them at the ]. Thank you.<!-- Template:Di-no source-notice --> ]]] 14:32, 21 July 2008 (UTC)
:Well, non-Slovak users usually do not type '''š''' because they do not use the Slovak diacritics. For them, Kosice and Košice is the same word. Moreover, an existing article about a major city is in my opinion more relevant than a non-existing article about a small village. I would understand why you oppose my proposal if the Kosice disambiguation article leads to a dozen of relevant normal articles. But now, it simply directs the user to ] and to one red link. So, why not to change it into an ordinary redirect? I would like just to simplify life of non-Slovak users searching information about Košice, that is all. I would be grateful if you think about my arguments again. ] 18:07, 1 July 2006 (UTC)


==Speedy deletion==
: Why not? Because the redirect is wrong, because Kosice is not the correct name of Košice, it is only the form used due to technical restrictions. I.o.w. strictly spoken, any redirect from Kosice to Košice is wrong. The name of the village on the other hand is really Kosice. Secondly, a good encyclopaedia must be exact, and thirdly the current solution still redirects you to Košice, so I do not see the problem - are you afraid that a user will not understand the "long" disambiguation page or have no time to click once more?

::I currently lack a "š" on my keyboard and encountered the disambiguation page somewhat to my surprise. The village of Kosice would certainly, under normal circumstances, occupy the ] article title, but these circumstances are not normal: Košice is clearly far more important, and most users would only be able to access it by typing in "Kosice". That would suggest that a ] on ], and leaving ] as a redirect would be a good idea. But on further consideration, I think that a disambiguation page has a very strong advantage. Any article that links to ] is ambiguous - one does not know whether the article means the Czech village or Košice itself. There are various projects and techniques to attack the problem of inappropriate links to disambiguation pages, so those bad links would end up being fixed (in time). So the disambiguation actually serves a good purpose. It is not the same as the situation is for, say, ] (which redirects to ], with a ] there linking to ] from which other Nashvilles, such as ] may be reached) because while they all share the same spelling, a wikilink (<nowiki>]</nowiki>) or user search for "Nashville" will invariably be for the Tennessee city (otherwise they would be disambiguated). It seems clear to me that while a reader might type "Kosice" into a search box with the aim of finding Košice, a wikilink <nowiki>]</nowiki> should, ''prima facie'', point to the Czech not Slovak settlement (after all, "Kosice" seems to be the only place called "Kosice"). This discrepancy makes a disambiguation page worthwhile, since it means ingoing links will be checked and corrected.] 19:28, 9 July 2006 (UTC)


== Slovak "motorroads" ==
==Hung. kingdom ==
Hi Juro! I have just finished my response to your last edit and than I read your edit summary. You are right. The term "Hungarian Kingdom" is more appropriate for the interwar period than the "Kingdom of Hungary". It would be great to write an article about this period. Although it is a very disputed era. My point is to indicate some sort of distance between pre-WW2 and modern Hungary. It is vitaly important. Why? Because the idea of political continuity to the "Hungarian Kingdom"(1920-1944) is very harmful to the modern Hungarian society. --] 10:15, 4 August 2006 (UTC)

I understand your point, but the aim HERE is not to make policy with names, but only to use usual/correct names. Using "Hungarian kingdom" for the interwar period is just misleading and unnecessary for 99 % of non-Magyar readers (because they could think that Greater Hungary is meant given that we have used "Kingdom of Hungary" previously in the article) and using just "Hungary" is definitely also correct and not-misleading. And above all, the term "Hungary" is linked to the Hungary article, where these details are or should be explained for those who are intersted. ] 13:30, 4 August 2006 (UTC)

I know these things and that texts is actually a very polite version of what really happened in this region around 1900. But, as long as vandals like Arpad alias all the other names he uses (who has "expelled" several Romanians from this wikipedia, and who as you can see even calls the work of the best contemporary western expert on Austria-Hungary and its ethnic issues -cited by all relevant sources until today - a "pamphlet" only because he does not like the content) are active here, any further discussions are superfluous. ] 02:11, 17 August 2006 (UTC)

Hi, probably you noticed that in Romanian and Hungarian city articles a lot of inboxes were changed to bilingual, for example ] and ]. The reason for this that minority names are official in settlement level in these countries. In Romania the translation of official documents and bilingual place name tables are provided by the law when a minority gives 20 % of the population of the town. In Hungary there is no percentage limit, but an official Settlement Codex was published in 2003 with the list of bilingual place name tables.
In Vojvodina, municipalities with Hungarian majority also have bilingual infoboxes, for example ].

I would like to ask you about the situation in Slovakia. What is criterion for bilingual place name tables? Can we use the recognized names in the infoboxes? ] 16:17, 14 August 2006 (UTC)

As far as I know, 20%. But personally, I would not use the alternative names in the infoboxes (unlike in the intro) not even in Romania or Hungary, because they simply are no '''official''' names of the settlements and I think the infoboxes should contain official names only. They are "only" names allowed to be used in communication with the offices (which is not the same as an official language as some expert has informed me here some months ago) and allowed to be mentioned on the tables. The only CEE country where the minority languages are really official is Serbia. ] 02:05, 17 August 2006 (UTC)

There is a difference between the first line usage of the names and the infoboxes. In the first line all alternatives names are mentioned regardless of their status. You are right that infoboxes only contain official data - that's why we indicated only those names that gained official recognition on settlement level. A bilingual place name table means official recognition because it is set up and maintained by the government. In Romania and Hungary bilingual place name tables are frequent and their usage is regulated by the minority rights law. Although I have been several times in Slovakia I don't remember whether there are such tables there. Do exist bilingual place names tables in Slovakia? Did the Slovakian Parliament approved a minority rights law that regulates this question? ] 02:42, 17 August 2006 (UTC)

The answer to the last questions is yes and yes (of course; and if you visit the region once more, you will see that not only the tables, but every inscription is bilingual or even only in Hungarian). But the fact that people are allowed to use the name on tables or even in documents by law does not make the name automatically a second official name in the region - that' a purely legal issue, I have been told this. There is a difference between being favoured/allowed etc. and having the status of "official name". In practical terms, if you mention the name in the infobox, foreigners could think (I would definitely think) that it is the same case like in Canada or Belgium, but it is not. Two names in the infobox are therefore misleading. ] 02:56, 17 August 2006 (UTC)

I think this situation is similar to Romania or Hungary. Obviously the recognized alternative names and the official names don't have an equal status. But the alternative name gained some degree of "officialty" by the governmental recognition. Békéšska Čaba is more similar to an official name than - for example - Päťkostolie but didn't became an equal alternative for Békéscsaba. You are right that these names are "weaker" than German names in Südtirol but "stronger" than not recognized minority names. Because of their transitional status or quasi-officiality I know that there good arguments against/for their usage. In Hungary I decided to change the infoboxes and no Hungarian user opposed this movement (I announced it on the noticeboard), so I think it is OK. In Romania Ronline and Dahn did the same, an edit war broke out but the majority of Romanian users accepted the new infoboxes. Obviously I would like to change the infoboxes of Southern Slovakia (according to the 20 % limit you wrote) but not at the expense of a major edit war. ] 21:54, 17 August 2006 (UTC)

I don't think bilingual infoboxes misleading, see for example the official homepage of Solymár/Schaumar and Lórév/Lovra: and . Both use the bilingual form on the opening page. ] 22:11, 17 August 2006 (UTC)

(1) I meant misleading at the en-wikipedia level, not at the internet level or elsewhere. (2) The solution would be simple if you had not changed these things for Hungary and Romania without explicitely previously organizing a voting or something like that (to say that nobody oppposed this is not enough, because for example I did not know about this). The solution would be: let's see whether there is a rule for such cases somewhere and/or how this is handled in the infoboxes of other similar (not only one) regions of the world: if it is handled like you propose it here I have no objections, if not I am definitely against creating the wrong impression that former KoH countries are somehow special, because if I - or anybody - see(s) a name in two languages in an infobox, this fact alone implies that those two languages are official languages in that region and that is certainly misleading. And let me just point out that otherwise I am not against mentioning the name in any language at the beginning or elsewhere in the article. ] 23:32, 17 August 2006 (UTC)

I don't think there is a generally accepted rule but the former KoH countries are certainly not exceptional. I found some examples: ], ], ], ]. Obviously it is possible to find other examples where the recognized alternative name is missing from the infobox.

I think in this case the probable pattern is always the same - there is a chance that users belonging to the ethnic majority (be it Hungarian, Romanian etc) will oppose the change. In the case of Hungary obviously I expected protest only from Hungarian users so I thought it enough to announce the change on the noticeboard. Things are more difficult with Slovakia because there isn't a national noticeboard yet. ] 09:43, 18 August 2006 (UTC)

For the future: You have done the following: You have bypassed the need to acquire the consent of Slovak users here, by simply doing something for another country (without asking anybody) and then just claiming "now we have a precedense, so we will do that for the other countries too". Obviously, this is not how things should be done here, because then I could change anything in Slovakia articles without asking anybody (and obviously nobody would notice that, since we are not 1000 local users here) and argue "now I have already changed that, so we have to adapt all the other articles". I hope you understand the problem... As for the matter at hand, go ahead and add the Hungarian names then. ] 13:10, 18 August 2006 (UTC)

As for historical accuracy: Ronline started the whole campaign in the Romanian articles. Later there was a debate whether Hungarian users should intervene at all. After other Hungarian users made reverts in the Romanian articles I thought it more fair to create bilingual infoboxes in the Hungarian articles also. Of course I agreed with Ronline's arguments and look up the Hungarian minority law (1993) whether it allows bilingual names or not. It turned out that there is an established group of names that are officially recognized. Of course I think - aside from the legal arguments - that it is a positive step and causes no harm for anybody. What's more it adds a plus information for the articles - from the first line we know how much alternative and historical name exists, from the bilingual infoboxes we know that one of them is still living and used semi-officially. ] 15:54, 18 August 2006 (UTC)

Hi guys. If I can join your discussion, I think that infoboxes should be as short as possible. I must oppose inclusion of any alternative names there. Names in the minority languages are already included in a special "Names" section (such as the one I created in ]) or in the lead. I believe that two names in an infobox may confuse a reader. In addition, the names in a minority language do not have the same status as the official name in Slovakia. This small yet significant legal difference can be nicely illustrated by the graphic difference between the "Štúrovo" and "Párkány" tables at the borders of the municipality. ] 17:31, 19 August 2006 (UTC)

But there are "Párkány" tables - and that's an important difference compared to other alternative names mentioned in the lead. The status of the name "Párkány" is different from "Besztercebánya" or "Komorn". The bilingual infoboxes in cases when Hungarians (or Rusyns) give up more than 20 % of the population illustrate the different status of that names. ] 21:20, 19 August 2006 (UTC)

:I am sorry to disagree with you, InShaneee, but Juro's use of the word "mess" may be seen by many people as a suitable description. He replied to a misleading, factually wrong and slightly offensive comment, in which Árpád (1) abuses the statistical data (because the initial numbers of "Hungarian" schools in Slovakia was a result of the preceding ] of predominantly Slovak regions), (2) individual episodes of vandalism (eg. destruction of statues) presents as the state policy of Slovakization, and (3) denies existence of Slovak history before 1918 (which is from the historic point of view non sense and I would be grateful if anyone could explain me what the "Hungarian architectural pattern" is about). Please, consider the context of the ongoing disputes before you decide to block one particular user. I feel offended by Arpad's persistent attempts to rewrite history of my home country. If you really want to punish disruptive behavior, perhaps you can block some other users too. ] 19:30, 31 August 2006 (UTC)

The two statues was destroyed in 1919 as one of the first actions of the new Czechoslovakian government. It was a highly symbolic act that should be mentioned in the article. So actually Árpád was right in this question... ] 20:40, 31 August 2006 (UTC)

:Although I still think that the incidents did not follow any long-term systematic government policy, you are right that it was a state-sponsored event. So, I should exclude it from the list. But how about two other points? There are more users with "disruptive" behavior involved in the recent disputes, but InShaneee is blocking only Juro. ] 20:55, 31 August 2006 (UTC)

The others claims need a lot of research sdo I can't say anything about them now. About the other users: I posted a message to Alex Bakharev talk page and called his attention to the sockpuppet accusations. I thing it would better to launch a Checkuser process to get rid of real sockpuppets and clear of other users under constant charges. I hope that Alex will do something as admin. ] 22:06, 31 August 2006 (UTC)

::I will summarize the above for you, because you - obviously deliberately - do not want to understand: What is disruptive here, is every single statement of user:Arpad on the talk pages and he continues with such statements although he was told to stop this repeatedly by several users since last Christmas. You are not informed and intelligent enough to see that, so Tankred and I am telling you that now and here. What I say, are just reactions. ] 22:52, 31 August 2006 (UTC)

As a semi-neutral Admin to this issue, an investigation of comments posted shows a high level of probable incivility (telling users to see a doctor about thier views, etc), but I dont really see where he has actually threatened users or called them deliberate names (Ex: "I'm going to XXXXX you if you revert me again", "you are a XXXXX for your views, etc). I would suggest that Juro simple reword his talk page views in a calmer tone and that the other admin give him a little bit more slack unless it is a very clear threat or an intentional name call on another user. Just my view. -] 01:45, 1 September 2006 (UTC)

Currently, I have to normalize the artificial "Slovakization" article. Later on I will improve the Magyarization article. Since Magyarisation is a central part of Slovak history, my actual problem will be, what to leave out :)) ] 21:31, 23 August 2006 (UTC)

What do you wait to start that CheckUser? and an RfC against those bastards?

Because the central vandal has a dynamic IP, I would have to list at least 10 users for a check (which is too much) and I have no proofs other than general observation and they require a "proof" on the CheckUser page. ] 12:00, 26 August 2006 (UTC)

Juro, I will be happy to support you if you initiate the CheckUser procedure. Perhaps we can prove that several IPs worked in collusion with HunTomy and Arpad. I think this is quite obvious in case of Arpad and the List of Slovaks, but it would be more difficult to provide evidence for the link between HunTomy and Arpad. Another (very weak) evidence is that none of them disagreed with your accusation of sockpuppetry. As for Arpad's socpuppets, the list should definitely include ], ], ], 81.183.183.12, 81.182.208.176, 81.182.208.215, 81.182.167.190, 81.182.208.155, 81.182.208.161, 81.182.209.198, 81.182.209.170 and possibly also 84.2.101.211, 86.101.74.39. The collusion between those 81... IPs and Arpad can be documented by ]. Perhaps you can find similar arguments for HunTomy and Enigma1. For example, cooperation of a sort between Arpad and Enigma occured on the Treaty of Trianon talk page. Enigma1 and 81.182.209.170 colluded here and here. Well, good luck and if you need any support in proving this case of sockpuppetry (and related cases of vandalism and personal attacks), feel free to drop me a line. ] 14:46, 26 August 2006 (UTC)

I can justify that your last contribution at 20:12 wasn't a revert but a normal change of the text discussed on the talk page.

But your former contribution at 19:31 was a revert and the fourth one in 24 hours time. ] 22:28, 28 August 2006 (UTC)

No it was not, because the text was totally reworded (compared to the previous versions) and 50% of the text have been removed. This is the standard way how articles are changed in the wikipedia, nobody can be blocked for this. This is a matter of principle. ] 22:38, 28 August 2006 (UTC)

Juro, I am trying to help you and I really hope you will get unblocked soon. But maybe you can cool down a bit too. I am sure you can choose more descriptive and less insulting words than "total incompetence". I know you are upset, but such behavior will not help you at all. Instead, your block will only help that guy, whose presumable sockpuppet once called all Slovaks "shepherds". So, please refrain from unnecessary and inefficient provocation. Take care. ] 23:31, 3 September 2006 (UTC)

Speedy deletion

Speedy deletion nomination of Liberty Global

You may also wish to consider using a Wizard to help you create articles. See the Article Wizard.

Thank you.

A tag has been placed on Liberty Global, requesting that it be speedily deleted from Misplaced Pages. This has been done under the criteria for speedy deletion, because the article seems to be unambiguous advertising that only promotes a company, product, group, service or person and would need to be fundamentally rewritten in order to become an encyclopedia article. Please read the general criteria for speedy deletion, particularly item 11, as well as the guidelines on spam.

If you can indicate why the subject of this article is not blatant advertising, you may contest the tagging. To do this, please add {{hangon}} on the top of Liberty Global and leave a note on the article's talk page explaining your position. Please do not remove the speedy deletion tag yourself, but don't hesitate to add information to the article that would help make it encyclopedic, as well as adding any citations from independent reliable sources to ensure that the article will be verifiable. Feel free to leave a note on my talk page if you have any questions about this. ▒ Wirεłεşş ▒ Fidεłitұ ▒ Ćłâşş ▒ Θnε ▒ ―Œ 15:56, 20 December 2009 (UTC)

Speedy deletion nomination of Slovaks in Czechoslovakia (1948–89)

If this is the first article that you have created, you may want to read the guide to writing your first article.

You may want to consider using the Article Wizard to help you create articles.

A tag has been placed on Slovaks in Czechoslovakia (1948–89) requesting that it be speedily deleted from Misplaced Pages. This has been done under section G12 of the criteria for speedy deletion, because the page appears to be an unambiguous copyright infringement. This page appears to be a direct copy from http://www.country-data.com/cgi-bin/query/r-3685.html. For legal reasons, we cannot accept copyrighted text or images taken from other web sites or printed material, and as a consequence, your addition will most likely be deleted. You may use external websites or other printed material as a source of information, but not as a source of sentences. This part is crucial: say it in your own words. Misplaced Pages takes copyright violations very seriously and persistent violators will be blocked from editing.

If the external website or image belongs to you, and you want to allow Misplaced Pages to use the text or image — which means allowing other people to use it for any reason — then you must verify that externally by one of the processes explained at Misplaced Pages:Donating copyrighted materials. The same holds if you are not the owner but have their permission. If you are not the owner and do not have permission, see Misplaced Pages:Requesting copyright permission for how you may obtain it. You might want to look at Misplaced Pages's copyright policy for more details, or ask a question here.

If you think this page should not be deleted for this reason, you may contest the nomination by visiting the page and clicking the button labelled "Contest this speedy deletion". This will give you the opportunity to explain why you believe the page should not be deleted. However, be aware that once a page is tagged for speedy deletion, it may be deleted without delay. Please do not remove the speedy deletion tag from the page yourself, but do not hesitate to add information in line with Misplaced Pages's policies and guidelines.
