Even on the frontpage of slashdot! --Dschwen 18:05, 30 November 2008 (UTC)

Yes, I am still surprised that I have no vandalism to my userpages yet... probably it's too difficult for most people to trace the link from Prokonsul Piotrus to Piotrus :) --_{Piotr Konieczny aka Prokonsul Piotrus| talk} 18:10, 30 November 2008 (UTC)

Request for help.

Hey Piotrus. I've created an article on Tadeusz Pyka. I'm hoping that it will get featured on the DYK column, but the article is not 1,500 characters long yet, and I have exhausted all of the sources of information on Pyka that I can use.  :( Is there any chance that you could add to the article? Thanks very much in advance. Terrakyte (talk) 19:49, 30 November 2008 (UTC)

BBC tv series on Stalin, re Poland

Piotrus, are you aware of the current several series of 4 ea., re Stalin & the Allies in WWII? Good use of documentary film intercut with effective dramatizations and interviews. Not over-musicked, as so often on such things. Recent programs have concerned Poland. E.g. this one can be played on one's player:

A question about an image of yours

Thanks for the info Piotrus. It's absolutely not necessary to photograph each of them, but I like the image anyway. I was kind of looking for a group of shells that were all collected on the same beach. If you wanted to photograph anything from it, it could maybe be the chunks of coral rock all grouped together.... But no big deal either way. Thanks again, Invertzoo (talk) 01:13, 5 December 2008 (UTC)

The Military history WikiProject Newsletter : Issue XXXIII (November 2008)

The Military history WikiProject Newsletter: The Bugle Issue XXXIII (November 2008)
Project news The Lebanese military history task force has been created. The recent promotion of Tom Crean (explorer) brings the number of featured articles within the scope of the Military History Project to 300. Following a lengthy discussion, a new section - Personal libraries - has been added to the Logistics Department. The aim is to make sourcing and citation checking easier by sharing information about editors' personal book holdings. If you have half an hour to spare, why add a list of your Milhist reference books?	Articles of note New featured articles: Battle of Lipantitlán Battle of Khafji Richard Williams (RAAF officer) Tom Crean Third Battle of Kharkov SS Mauna Loa SS Montanan SS Ohioan (1914) USS Constitution New featured lists: List of Knight's Cross recipients of the Schnellboot service New A-Class articles: 13th Airborne Division (United States) Alaska class battlecruiser Edmund Herring Revolt of the Comuneros Rheinmetall 120 mm gun SS Black Osprey Stanley Goble Tanks in the Spanish Army
Current proposals and discussions Adoption of C-class remains firmly on the Milhist agenda with discussions approaching their fifth month of debate. More views are sought on this. What is a Pyrrhic victory? There's an interesting and lively discussion on this here. (And the short answer is: follow what the sources say.) Can you design logos? We're looking for a snappy new logo to go with the new title of the newsletter. See the ideas so far at the newsletter workshop.
Awards and honors The Contest department has completed its twentieth month of competition, which saw a record 78 entries. The top scorer this month is Bellhalla with 143 points, followed by Catalan with 42 points.
