Hi there! This is my talk page, and I do hope that you will leave me a pleasant message to help make my day a bit brighter. I am open to hearing your constructive comments concerning my editing, but like all humans on this planet, I am more likely to take your comments to heart if they are written in a civil and polite tone. If you have come here to harass or bait me, please don't. If I do not want to respond to your message I won't. Don't take it personally. This is my talk page, so I will choose which discussions will continue, and which discussions will not. If you have been asked to stay off my talk page, then I ask that you respect my right to do so, and to refrain from posting your comments here. On a similar note, please don't censor my talk page. Just because you don't support what someone is saying is no reason to remove it. However, if it is clear and obvious vandalism, then please feel free to do it. That's not censorship, that's a neighbour looking out for its community, and I thank you for taking it on. A non-abusive heads-up on the antics of the contributor would still be appreciated, and even then, it may be better to just leave me to clean up my own page. You take care now, y'hear?

Usage of diacritics in surnames
Please do not move the titles of sportsmen with diacritics in their name or surname. The standard usage of their names is with diacritics. See here: Category:Finnish ice hockey players, Category:Czech footballers or also Category:Polish footballers and Category:Spanish footballers. Enwiki adopted the usage of diacritics, as you can see for Spanish or Portuguese accents, German, Finnish, Czech or Polish diacritics and more. This is not an opinion of mine but a general adopted rule. See for example the title of famous people as Lech Wałęsa or Alexander Dubček. Thanks for attention and best of regards. --Dэя-Бøяg 04:30, 12 July 2011 (UTC)
- You are mistaken to claim that your POV is the "general adopted rule". The policy as spelled out at Misplaced Pages:Article titles requires that the article title is to use the name that is most frequently used to refer to the subject in English-language reliable sources. This applies to the title of the article – but within the text of the article, pursuant to WP:MOSBIO, the person's legal name should usually appear first in the article. This has been discussed at length at Misplaced Pages talk:Naming conventions (use English, with no consensus being reached to change the existing policy. I trust that explains the current Misplaced Pages policy as it relates to this issue. Dolovis (talk) 13:44, 12 July 2011 (UTC)

Hello. This message is being sent to inform you that there is currently a discussion at Misplaced Pages:Administrators' noticeboard/Incidents regarding an issue with which you may have been involved. Thank you. Mjroots (talk) 06:02, 12 July 2011 (UTC)
Editing redirects
Even if the above page move restriction would be lifted, you need to stop creating redirects and then editing those again. This was mentioned in Misplaced Pages:Administrators' noticeboard/IncidentArchive709#Gaming the system, but you have continued doing this over and over again on every diacritics move you made since then. If you create a redirect, do it in one edit, or don't do it at all. Continuation of this gaming of the system (as it was aptly described) will also get you indefinitely blocked.
