:Hi PB666, I have left a message on the [[User_talk:Victorius_III#Question|users talk page]]. I agree that the editing style is a bit unusual for someone new to Wikipedia. I too, have technically made the same edit twice today, so I should take a step back as well. (It could easily escalate into an edit war, which I don't really want). Let's just both take a step back.

== Re: On assistance == |

Hi Marek, |
|||
I might have a couple of queries focused on styling-formatting at some stage as I have the impression these issues sometimes follow 'rules' based more on tradition or convention beeing probably a 'no-two-situations-are-identical' issues. On the other hand I found that on general questions Wikipedia is very well documented with plenty of help pages & examples. It also gives a good overview on HTML language coding which becomes more and more interesting every day now nearly more than contributing to articles...

==Message re: Bat Yam== |
|||
Hello Marek69, |
|||
I was wondering if you could help me. I have tried adding a person to the notable residents section of the article entitled "Bat Yam." Bat Yam is a city within the area in Israel referred to as "Gush Dan" and is a town adjacent to Tel Aviv. My addition to the notable residents has been removed several times by someone very adament, who also mentioned something about "vandalism" in regard to my addition. While I respect that no one should put up false information on any article, I can't help but feel that this person seems to think he "owns" the article and only he is entitled to make changes. |
|||
I added someone named "David Vildof" to the notables list. The Vildorf Family has long been residents of Bat Yam, back when there were no buildinga, but tents... there has been a book printed about them and David Vildorf is a philanthropist and people know this almost 80-year-old man in the community. He is a philanthropist, but not the kind who you see at parties or in the newspapers, but a man who does good and prefers to fly under the radar if you will. He is a Zionist, a man who has fought in all the wars of the country except the last two, and continues to volunteer his time to rightous causes. |
|||
I was surprised that this YHockey person was so possesive about the article. I invite you to read our exchanges and look forward to hearing from you. |
|||

Hi Markek69, |
|||
I sent you a note last week regarding the article titled "Bat Yam." I know you are probobly busy, or maybe I sent it to the wrong place, or the wrong way, being that I am new. I will not repeat what I said so as not to bother you. If you did not receive the message/question, I will be happy to resend.

== About the talk signature == |

Hello, thank you for the reminder about using the 4 tildes. |

I am just wondering whether it might not be preferable that the signature be automatic? <small><span class="autosigned">—Preceding [[Wikipedia:Signatures|unsigned]] comment added by [[User:Gentleman wiki|Gentleman wiki]] ([[User talk:Gentleman wiki|talk]] • [[Special:Contributions/Gentleman wiki|contribs]]) 02:36, 26 August 2009 (UTC)</span></small><!-- Template:Unsigned --> <!--Autosigned by SineBot--> |

:Hi Gentleman wiki, I think it is generally preferable to sign your comments with the four tildes (<nowiki>~~~~</nowiki>). If this is difficult (not on keyboard) just copy/paste it. |

== American Film Institute edits == |
|||
Hi Marek, |
|||
Thanks so much for your involvement with the article. I am new to Wikipedia and appreciate any help you can offer. As the house editor for AFI, my wish is to have the most up-to-date information posted. Now that I've read the style guide I can appreciate that the article did not entirely conform--and was still missing links. I would welcome your advice on ways to make the story conform more to wiki standards. Since I'm new, I wanted to post the correct, factual information and then add the links, etc that are still missing. |
|||
I'm curious to hear why it was removed? And how you think it could be fixed. |
|||
Thanks |

:Hi Filmmaven, thank you for your message. I took a look at the [[American Film Institute]] article. |

:I think the edit you are referring to was [http://en.wikipedia.org/enwiki/w/index.php?title=American_Film_Institute&diff=prev&oldid=309856109 this one], with an edit summary of ''rv copy and paste. new info must conform to wiki style'' |

|||
:To clarify this, it may be worth explaining where this information is taken from, and perhaps proving some citations. You can read more about this in [[ Wikipedia:Citing sources]].

:To create a Level 2 heading, use '''two''' equal signs before and after the wording. |

:To create a Level 3 heading, use '''three''' equal signs before and after the wording, and so on |
|||
:e.g. the following code: |

:{{xt|<code><nowiki>==Level 2 Heading==</nowiki></code>}} |
|||
:{{xt|<code><nowiki>===Level 3 Heading===</nowiki></code>}} |

:{{xt|<code><nowiki>====Level 4 Heading====</nowiki></code>}} |

== Use of AWB == |

Please be more careful with your use of AWB. See [[WP:AWB#Rules of use]]: '''"Check ''every'' edit before you save it. Make sure you understand the text and have NOT changed the meaning."''' Your edit [http://en.wikipedia.org/enwiki/w/index.php?title=La_Massana&diff=312686943&oldid=312092927 here] changed "Montaner" into "Mountainer". That is incorrect and has been reverted. If you don't understand the language used in an article (Catalan in this case), please think carefully before using AWB for making changes. Misuse of AWB can lead to withdrawal of your permission to use it. Thanks. - [[Special:Contributions/85.94.186.91|85.94.186.91]] ([[User talk:85.94.186.91|talk]]) 00:14, 12 September 2009 (UTC) |

:I'm sorry, I missed that one. You're right, I should double-check my edits with AWB. I do a lot of typo-fixing with AWB, so I really should have spotted the obvious mistake. ''Occasionally'' one slips through though. |

=== "Fixing" links to redirects that are not broken === |
|||
I see you are doing hundreds of edits "fixing" links to redirects that are not broken, e.g. [http://en.wikipedia.org/enwiki/w/index.php?title=Bosnia_and_Herzegovina&diff=prev&oldid=312905267 here]. This is positively unhelpful and against the guideline [[WP:NOTBROKEN]]. Please stop and have a think about your editing pattern. You are doing a lot of minor "janitorial" edits using tools such as AWB, TW, WikiCleaner, etc. Such edits can be done by bots if the edits are really necessary. Why not try spending time on more productive edits such as writing new articles or expanding existing ones? That will get you noticed in a good way! - [[Special:Contributions/85.94.186.91|85.94.186.91]] ([[User talk:85.94.186.91|talk]]) 00:41, 12 September 2009 (UTC) |
|||
:Hi, I'm sorry but I do not entirely agree with your comments and would like to defend my 'editing pattern' |
|||
:Regarding the "fixing" of unbroken links with WikiCleaner, if you take a closer look you will see that in most cases the links I am fixing are those I actually created. |
|||
:I use a couple of link-suggestion tools, as well as my own suggestions. These tools, while very useful, can sometimes be a little out-of-date, so usually after adding these links, I run WikiCleaner to modify and update them, using the edit summary of ''‘Repairing [[Wikipedia:Disambiguation_pages_with_links|links to disambiguation pages]] and avoiding redirects.’''. As I said, I am updating links ''(avoiding redirects)'' which ''I'' added, so I think [[WP:NOTBROKEN]] does not strictly apply here. |
|||
:Regarding TW edits. I use TW to revert vandalism. I consider it to be a very useful tool to do a necessary task. I see no reason to do such a task ''manually'', when a tool such as this exists. (I also use huggle, for same reasons) |
|||
:Regarding AWB, I have already explained above. Spell checking is a necessary task as well. |
|||
:As far as the implication that my edits consist mainly of minor "janitorial" edits. This is true to a certain extent, but why not? ''Someone'' has to do them; spell checking, link addition and correction, interwiki links, vandalism patrol etc. I do not believe these tasks can all be done by fully automated bots. Being only ''‘human’'', I do make a mistake once in a while. |
|||
:Not everyone has the ability to be a content creator, so we do what we can. |
|||
:Regarding ''"writing new articles or expanding existing ones"'', I also suggest you take a close look at my contributions, as I also contribute, albeit in a smaller way, to these type of edits (eg [http://toolserver.org/~soxred93/pages/index.php?name=Marek69&namespace=0&redirects=noredirects articles I've created] or [http://toolserver.org/~soxred93/topedits/index.php?name=Marek69&namespace=0 list of articles I've expanded]). I also do referencing work. |
|||

==Thanks for fixes to Freddy and the Dragon== |
|||
Hi, thanks for your changes to HTML formatting on ''[[Freddy and the Dragon]]'', here [http://en.wikipedia.org/enwiki/w/index.php?title=Freddy_and_the_Dragon&diff=315206027&oldid=315137700]. Double thanks if you can cite the Wiki references explaining the guidelines. I remember reading ages ago that image filenames were not to have concatinated_underscores_in_them. But I can't remember why (because they can't be easily searched?) I'm also not sure about use of HTML vs. Wiki conventions. (E.g., <nowiki><i>, <b> vs. '', '''</nowiki>. What I do know is that it's easier to make a mistake with the Wiki convention, and harder to notice and fix other people's mistakes. So again, if you've got a nice reference, that would be handy.

::Thanks for replying, I really was at a loss, particularly because *after* your edit, a bot called Drilbot came along, making similar changes to another article I wrote. [http://en.wikipedia.org/enwiki/w/index.php?title=Freddy_the_Magician&action=edit&oldid=314742403]. My inclination, frankly, is to continue doing what easiest and most standard on the Web. I.e., using a specialized syntax makes it: a) difficult for new Wiki editors, and b) difficult for automatic conversion tools seeking to use Wiki material elsewhere. I notice in the comments on Drilbot's page that some of the edits it makes are "really just personal preference", according to Drilnoth. |

== Twin town/sister cities in Europe == |
|||
Thanks for splitting more off of this article -- I was going to do some more, but it was tedious work, what with the named references getting separated from each other. How about updating [[Template:Twin towns]] with the new articles you created? |
|||
I was going to check other twin town articles as well, unless you'd also like to do them. Let me know, either is fine with me. --[[User:Auntof6|Auntof6]] ([[User talk:Auntof6|talk]]) 23:13, 21 September 2009 (UTC) |
|||
:Hi Auntof6, thank you for your message. Yes tedious work as you say, but it really needed doing. You inspired me! The list had grown so much recently it was taking ''ages'' to load the page. Luckily, as I originally sourced a large part of the citations on the page, I had already compiled a list in [[User:Marek69/sandbox1]], which helped with the stray references. |
|||
:[[Template:Twin towns]] was also on my list of things-to-do. I'll attempt to do tonight, unless you're going there. I'm also OK either way :-) |
|||
:Do you think the remaining countries on the [[List of twin towns and sister cities in Europe]] should have their own articles? |
|||
:They are all very small and have very few references between them (may get tagged, if in individual articles). |
|||
:I might just try to find additional references first. |
|||
:Oh, I left the Ireland (Republic of) section as there appeared to already be an article: [[List of twin towns and sister cities in the Republic of Ireland]]. |
|||
:I guess the correct procedure would be to merge the two together? |

::I'm on the fence about whether all the countries should have separate articles. That would make things consistent, but it might not be worth it.

Not sure how to do a Diff, and I'm too lazy to figure it out. Here is my wording (which I've now restored), in the Dacia page, Occupations section: |
|||
The first coins produced by the Geto-Dacians were imitations of silver coins of the Macedonian kings Philip II and Alexander III (the Great). Early in the 1st century BC, the Dacians replaced these with silver denarii of the Roman Republic, both official coins of Rome exported to Dacia and locally made imitations of them. |

==Metric?== |

`Hello thanks for the welcome. I happen to be one of the 96% of the planet's population who think everyone should be using the metric system, so when I see it missing in Wikipedia articles I like to include the metric units. I have seen the convert format, however some of these measurements are Nominal (the enemy was 50 yds away) is an estimation and so it would also be 50 meters. If it's an exact measurement, a mountain elevation for example I agree the convert formula would be appropriate. I'm still getting used to some of the editing conventions. I do a lot of traveling, enjoy reading about places I go, when I see an omission or error like to correct the information. I agree I could use some help occasionally, I tried entering a reference one time and it failed, another time it worked, I still have some things to learn. ~~metricmike~~<small>—Preceding [[Wikipedia:Signatures|unsigned]] comment added by </small>[[User:Metricmike|Metricmike]] ([[User talk:Metricmike|talk]] • [[Special:Contributions/Metricmike|contribs]]) 04:27, 26 September 2009 (UTC) |

Hi, Marek, |
|||
In your message to me on the 2 nd of Sep., you voluntered to help me. Thanks for the offer. I have a rather technical question. I am trying to write a new article. Well, I am not new in creating articles. (Some in [[en]], but many in [[tr]]) But this time I have a problem in reaching the edit page. Even though the article I plan to create doesn’t exist, the name of the article has already been directed to an existing article which is a rather generalization of the subject. So whenever I search for my planned article, I am directed to another page instead of the edit page. Is there any way for me to reach the edit page of my planned article. ? |

== Wrong translation of "Gerusalemme liberata" == |
|||
Marek, is there a way to filter only messages of a user (oneself, for example) in a talk page (like this one)? TIA [[User:Morogoso|Morogoso]] ([[User talk:Morogoso|talk]]) 12:20, 29 September 2009 (UTC) |
|||
:Hi Morogoso, thank you for the messages. Could you please give another example as I'm not sure I'm too clear on what you're asking :) [[User:Marek69|{{#if:|<span style="background-color:Marek;color:DarkBlue;"></span>|<span style="color:DarkBlue;">Marek</span>}}]]<small>.</small>[[Special:Contributions/Marek69|<small>{{#if:|<span style="background-color:69;color:Blue;"></span>|<span style="color:Blue;">69</span>}}</small>]][[User_talk:Marek69|<small>{{#if:|<span style="background-color:<sup>'' talk''</sup>;color:Green;"></span>|<span style="color:Green;"><sup>'' talk''</sup></span>}}</small>]] 15:53, 29 September 2009 (UTC) |

Marek, |
|||
"Gerusalemme liberata" was incorrectly translated to "Jerusalem Delivered" when it is really "Jerusalem Freed" or "Jerusalem Liberated". It is the name of a page, and is referenced in many places, including a "Did you know?" entry. |
|||
How do we correct this? |
|||
[[User:Morogoso|Morogoso]] ([[User talk:Morogoso|talk]]) 12:52, 29 September 2009 (UTC) |
|||
:Hi Morogoso, I would raise the subject on the [[Talk:Jerusalem_Delivered|Jerusalem Delivered talk page]] |
|||
:The article can easily be moved to either of the above titles, but I would wait for further input from other editors to get a [[Wikipedia:Consensus|consensus]], or agreement on what the 'best' title would be, before moving. |
|||
:When this is agreed, moving is pretty straightforward. |

== Marek69 - Sandbox == |
|||
Hi Marek |
|||
I very much enjoyed viewing the page regarding Tatars at Ocieka. Nice bit of research. I tip my hat to you. |
|||
Now, do you have any evidence of six Mongols purportedly held at Gora Motyczna, captured while foraging for chickens and food at nearby Debica circa 1241? |
|||
Again, nice job. |

:Hi Dennis, thanks for the compliment! |
|||
:If it was [[User:Marek69/Sandbox|my sandbox article]] which you have read, that's just a collection of bits of text I was translating before it went into an article. The full article is [[Ocieka]] |
|||
:On the question six [[Mongols]] purportedly held at [[Góra Motyczna]], I'm sorry but I haven't come across any information on that particular incident, but if I do I will surely let you know. |
|||
:In the [[Tartars#Tartars|Wikipedia Tartar article]] it states “In Europe the term ''Tartar'' is generally only used in the historical context for ''Mongolian'' people who appeared in the 13th century (the [[Mongol invasions]]) and assimilated into the local population later.”, so that when you refer to six 'Mongols' I guess 'Tartar' and 'Mongol' would be interchangeable. |
|||
:I have done several searches on 'Tartars' or 'Mongols' in the [[Dębica]] or [[Góra Motyczna]] areas, but not really come up with anything. In fact the closest hit being [http://spuscizna.org/spuscizna/local-history-1.html your website]. |
|||
:I thank you for your message and will be in touch in I uncover anything of interest. |

==Vandal Attack== |
|||
Hi Marek, |
|||
I removed a troublesome vandal attack on the article 'Centaur'. It read 'I like waffles' about 1000 times. I'm not sure I really defeated it; you may want to check it out. |
|||

:Hi Dante4848, Thank you for your message. Looks like you cleaned up all the vandalism. Well Done. |
|||
:I've also left a warning message on the [[User_talk:24.14.81.232|IP's talk page]]. |
|||
:You can do this yourself in the future if you wish using [[Wikipedia:Twinkle|Twinkle]]. |

== Rijeka (Town) == |
|||
Dear Marek, |
|||
I've read your message about my failing to add sources of the data to my entry. I will state the sources as soon as it be convenient to me. I have intention to make several new things or to improve the existing stuff, however it is difficult to work in free time. |
|||
I live in Rijeka, Croatia, I am a big fan of knowledge and some people call me Kvisko which means something like "Quiz idiot". |
|||
Faithfully yours, |
|||

:Hi Akrsovnik, I'm sorry, but I have no idea as to which message of mine you are referring to. |
|||
:Would it be possible to point the particular message out to me, perhaps you could provide a [[diff]] of the edit. |

Why am I getting a "welcome" message when I have been registered, and editing in Wikipedia, for eighteen months.[[User:Gordoncph|Gordoncph]] ([[User talk:Gordoncph|talk]]) 16:22, 1 October 2009 (UTC) |

:Hi Gordoncph, I'm sorry, I saw your userpage and talkpage come up as red links, so I assumed you were new and welcomed you. I should have looked at your contributions, before doing so. I'm sorry for any inconvenience, I've now removed the message :-) |
