Reasons for my raising wikistress: Harassment at Wikipedia:Requests for arbitration#Statement by Piotrus
Wikipedia is a kawaii mistress :)

If you have come here to place a request for a re-confirmation of my adminship, please note that I will either:

  • seek community approval of my adminship through an RfC; (no consensus = no change)
  • choose to take the matter to ArbComm;
  • resign my powers and stand again for adminship;

at my discretion

  • once the "six editors in good standing" count has been met using my own criteria
  • and the matter concerns my admin powers rather than a non-admin editing concern.
  1. Remember, this is a voluntary action, and does not preclude an RfC or RfAr being initiated by others, should others feel they have no recourse.
  2. My "good standing" criteria include
a) the requirement that if the user is calling for recall is an admin, the admin must themselves have been in this category for at least a week.
b) the requirement that the user should be neutral towards my person. This means that if a user is or has been involved in a DR procedure with me as a party, I doubt that user is neutral and I reserve the right to not count this editor as "an editor in good standing" in this case. Hint: it's easy to find a neutral party, like mediators - if you can convince them you are right...
c) I reserve the right to impose additional criteria in the future.
I agree to the edit counter opt-in terms.

Bierut

Sorry about that. I knew he died a week after something important. It was (about) a week after the Secret Speech, not Stalin's funeral! Biruitorul 02:52, 13 April 2007 (UTC)[reply]

I wasn't the one who added that tag. I'll produce a citation soon, though, if Irpen still needs one. In fact I'm preparing to add a lot - I'll put it on the talk page first so you can look it over. Biruitorul 03:01, 13 April 2007 (UTC)[reply]
Thanks for those explanations; I will make sure to behave. The scandal had to do with a defector exposing the secret police's crimes. I'll write down the a more precise quote in a short while. Biruitorul 04:36, 13 April 2007 (UTC)[reply]
Nicely done. I'll give it a look. I still don't know what would make an ideal title, but that will do for now. Oh, and you've been reverted on Fantana Alba. Biruitorul 05:19, 13 April 2007 (UTC)[reply]

OK, here's the exact quote on the scandal, from Machcewicz, p. 101: "Significant political changes were accelerated by the affair of pl:Józef Światło, a top-ranking official of the Polish security apparatus who defected to the West in December 1953. From the following autumn, his revelations of the crimes of the secret police and misdemeanours of the ruling Party were broadcast back to Poland by Radio Free Europe, based in Munich, shocking thousands of listeners, including many members of the Party. After a wave of criticism directed towards the Party leadership and collective security apparatus, for the first time expressed during official (although still confidential) meetings, the Ministry of Public Security was dissolved in December 1954." The article on Światło should definitely be translated at some point. Biruitorul 07:25, 13 April 2007 (UTC)[reply]

Your formatting of Hungarian Revolution of 1956

Hi Piotrus, this edit[1] seems to have used a formatting script on most of the article. looking at the side-by-side comparison, I could not detect any difference from before/after. Out of curiosity - can you point me to a source that explains what that script does and why it is used? Thanks in advance István 14:46, 13 April 2007 (UTC)[reply]

Hiya Piotrus,

I believe we may have argued in the past..? My memory is pretty hazy...

Can you make heads or tails of Talk:Zaolzie? Is this one POV-pusher trying to upset the apple cart, or are there legitimate probs? I'm inclined to delist the article from GA based on stability....

Thanks --Ling.Nut 12:49, 14 April 2007 (UTC)[reply]

Thanks again... --Ling.Nut 17:29, 14 April 2007 (UTC)[reply]

Odznaczenia

Można "Radku" ;) Ja nie tyle zmieniłem kolejność ile przeniosłem dwa ordery nadal przyznawane z historycznych do tych co są nadal przyznawane - Siły Zbrojne w Służbie Ojczyzny i Za zasługi dla obronności kraju. Pozdrawiam Radomil talk 10:46, 15 April 2007 (UTC)[reply]

P.S. Jesteś pewien, że wszystkie medale "historyczne" są historyczne? Chodzi mi o to, że np. Wielkopolski Krzyż Powstańczy, który dotyczył przecież biorących udział w walkach w latach 1918-1919 zakończono nadawać 8 maja 1999. Być moze część odznaczeń za II wojnę światową nadal jest przyznawane (część na pewno zaprzestano przyznawać w tym samym momencie, ale czy wszystkie)? Radomil talk 10:56, 15 April 2007 (UTC)[reply]

Zaolzie

I have quoted Peroutka. My additions were deleted.

I have added Kovtun. My additions were deleted.

I have added Gawronska. My additions were deleted.

I have added information from Mamatey. The information was deleted.

I have added information from Gabal. The information was deleted.

I have added quotation of Chlebowczyk and Kosiński. The quotation was deleted.

Following this, I have deleted Watts. He presents view of one side only and Czech side has no defence. The deletion was twice reverted.

I cannot add, I cannot delete - I cannot edit the article. At the same time, I am subject of personal attacks and ad hominem arguments.

I appreciate that Darwinek is your friend but you may wish to be objective. What do you think?

Thanks for the Polish-English translations for the two photo captions. They provided the basis for improving the text. For the record: as I understand English usage, a tomb may be above or below ground; a grave is below ground, but the structure called a mausoleum may indicate aboveground burial which can't be known from merely viewing the photos. So your prompt response was most helpful! Perhaps future editors will expand the page with more particular information. -- Cheers, Deborahjay 04:47, 18 April 2007 (UTC)[reply]

BTW, I've tagged the image in the article, Image:Swiatlo.jpg as being unsourced. The URL you gave leads to a Page Not Found error. Hopefully you can find another source for it. Thanks. howcheng {chat} 16:36, 18 April 2007 (UTC)[reply]


ArbCom/Piotrus

Your behavior will be scrutinized here: [2] M.K. 10:16, 20 April 2007 (UTC)[reply]

Piotrus, I would like to express my support for you in this matter; it is clear that M.K.'s accusations are without merit. I am not listed as one of the "involved parties", but I wonder if it's still possible for me to provide a statement to ArbCom? Appleseed (Talk) 19:41, 20 April 2007 (UTC)[reply]

Polish translation of edit summary

Hi there...

I am wondering, as someone who indcates they can translate polish, could you review the following edit summary for this diff [3] and let me know it's general content. Based on the topic and the fact the edit reversed my editing, I believe it is likely in polish and directed at me. It is unlikely I will report it or anything, but it is always nice to know if someone is slamming you. Thanks.--User:Gay Cdn (talk) (Contr) 12:47, 20 April 2007 (UTC)[reply]

Another user got to this already. Thanks anyways.--User:Gay Cdn (talk) (Contr) 13:16, 20 April 2007 (UTC)[reply]
