Central Europe

Please look at the map of Europe. If Romania is not in Central Europe than neither Poland is. Marc KJH (talk) 16:20, 6 April 2008 (UTC)

Median Europe

Hi, while I support the idea of creating the article, it should be prepared in a sandbox. For now, I'm nominating it for SD (just a title there). Pundit|utter 17:50, 6 April 2008 (UTC)

Go ahead and write the article then :) Apparently, some users would prefer a redirect... Pundit|utter 18:26, 6 April 2008 (UTC)

I don't understand your problems. If you refer to geographical region than is something useless. If you refer to culturally one, than you need to include more states. In either case Median Europe is not the solution. Marc KJH (talk) 18:27, 6 April 2008 (UTC)

AfD nomination of Median Europe

An editor has nominated Median Europe, an article which you have created or worked on, for deletion. We appreciate your contributions, but the nominator doesn't believe that the article satisfies Misplaced Pages's criteria for inclusion and has explained why in his/her nomination (see also "What Misplaced Pages is not").

Your opinions on whether the article meets inclusion criteria and what should be done with the article are welcome; please participate in the discussion by adding your comments at Misplaced Pages:Articles for deletion/Median Europe and please be sure to sign your comments with four tildes (~~~~).

You may also edit the article during the discussion to improve it but should not remove the articles for deletion template from the top of the article; such removal will not end the deletion debate. Thank you. BJBot (talk) 17:00, 7 April 2008 (UTC)

A new task force under wikiproject Europe

Hello,

I've noticed that you are active in the area of Europe. I just wanted to let you know that a European Space Agency task force has been set up to improve the presently very poor condition of articles about ESA and related topics. If you are interested, please join the task force here. We sure could use your help. Thanks.U5K0 (talk) 19:27, 17 August 2008 (UTC)

Eastern Europe

Hi Mont. I just added the sources mentioned in the discussion page re the view of the balkans as part of eastern europe.

It was not my intention to delete your work. But with the reference added, the balkans have their place in this article, just as the rest of the othe regions mentioned. It seem redundant to talk about the same countries in different parts of the article for the same topic.

I'll add the balkans as they were with the reference provided and maybe we can work out how to complete more this point. Regards --Arcillaroja (talk) 22:10, 26 January 2009 (UTC)

I like the way you have rewritten the Southeastern Europe section. It shows an argumented view of how and why are these countries associated with Southern and Eastern Europe. Admiral Norton 14:43, 27 January 2009 (UTC)

PC

Hey, I once again moved your edit out of the first sentence of "Polish Corridor", because the information is already in the second sentence (and at least once in the body). The second sentence is in fact exclusively dealing with the Polish period and links Polish Crown as well as Royal Prussia. There is also a more detailed background in the history section. Please note that there is no dispute whether this territory had been Polish earlier - it had, and that is prominently mentioned. Yet it is somehow contentious to call it "originally" Polish as you put it (when is "originally" supposed to be? Ice Age? Germanic period? Veneti period? Pomeranian tribal period? Mieszko period? Samboride period? Brandenburg period? Teutonic knights' period?), and to delete "West Prussia" from the lead which was the immediate predecessor as a province and a widely known alternative name for the region. Please reconsider your edit, there is no need to get heated about the issue in question :). Skäpperöd (talk) 06:06, 2 February 2009 (UTC)

WP:Hornbook -- a new WP:Law task force for the J.D. curriculum

Hi Montessquieu,

I'm asking Wikipedians who are interested in United States legal articles to take a look at WP:Hornbook, the new "JD curriculum task force".

Our mission is to assimilate into Misplaced Pages all the insights of an American law school education, by reducing hornbooks to footnotes.

• Each casebook will have a subpage.

• Over the course of a semester, each subpage will shift its focus to track the unfolding curriculum(s) for classes using that casebook around the country.
• It will also feature an extensive, hyperlinked "index" or "outline" to that casebook, pointing to pages, headers, or {{anchors}} in Misplaced Pages (example).
• Individual law schools can freely adapt our casebook outlines to the idiosyncratic curriculum devised by each individual professor.

• I'm encouraging law students around the country to create local chapters of the club I'm starting at my own law school, "Student WP:Hornbook Editors". Using WP:Hornbook as our headquarters, we're hoping to create a study group so inclusive that nobody will dare not join.

What you can do now:

1. Add WP:Hornbook to your watchlist, {{User Hornbook}} to your userpage, and ~~~~ to Misplaced Pages:Hornbook/participants.

2. If you're a law student,

• Email http://en.wikipedia.org/WP:Hornbook to your classmates, and tell them to do the same.
• Contact me directly via talk page or email about coordinating a chapter of "Student WP:Hornbook Editors" at your own school.

(You don't have to start the club, or even be involved in it; just help direct me to someone who might.)

3. Introduce yourself to me. Law editors on Misplaced Pages are a scarce commodity. Do knock on my talk page if there's an article you'd like help on.

Regards, Andrew Gradman /_WP:Hornbook 20:02, 31 July 2009 (UTC)

Please help me with this anon vandal of the Central & Eastern Europe articles

User 82.95.205.208 (Netherlands) has a history of vandalizing these articles' leads by deleting any sentences containing positive remarks about the region; this has been going on for a month. Seems that an administrator has acknowledged that the user is a vandal, but requested further personal warnings before banning: http://en.wikipedia.org/search/?title=Misplaced Pages:Administrator_intervention_against_vandalism&oldid=328270366 I know you're a constructive editor; please help me reverting/silencing him, thanks.

WikiProject Poland activity check

We are doing another activity check on members of Misplaced Pages:WikiProject Poland. I've noticed that you have not been active in the Poland-related articles in the past few months (we define it as doing 10 or more Poland-related edits per month in the last three months period), and as such I took the liberty to adjust your position in our Participants list from active to semi-active. Please note that this is just a method of keeping track of how many editors are currently active on Poland-related topics. Feel free to move yourself back if you disagree with this, and/or comment on WT:POLAND. In case you are not aware of that, our project has many active discussions on its talk page, we also list Poland-related article news (hee), Poland-related new articles for review (hee), Poland-related articles in need of cleanup (here), a listing of most popula Poland-related articles (here), a portal (here), and other tools. If the activity incrases, we would like to implement other tools, such as project A-class reviews and a newsletter. We are looking forward to seeing you around more often! Take care, --_{Piotr Konieczny aka Prokonsul Piotrus| talk} 21:30, 17 December 2010 (UTC)

The User Arcillaroja

Czesc, jestem Poleczka!!! Hi!,

I am Marina. I am writing to you in order to clarify my fears. One of the users have been reverting my edits on Western Europe, as well as other European-related issues. I noticed, that his or her page is full of talk page entries related just to that. Would you mind to stay in touch with me? I read about vandalism on Misplaced Pages and I fear this is one of these cases... I hope, of course that I am wrong but... the evidence seems to suggest otherwise. By evidence I mean Arcilla's talk page as well as entry, and the fact that rather than move a critical comment from user page to a talk page, it was simply reverted. --Martina Moreau (talk) 22:27, 22 January 2013 (UTC)
