Replaceable fair use File:Westerplatte burning.jpg
Thanks for uploading File:Westerplatte burning.jpg. I noticed the description page specifies that the media is being used under a claim of fair use, but its use in Wikipedia articles fails our first non-free content criterion in that it illustrates a subject for which a freely licensed media could reasonably be found or created that provides substantially the same information. If you believe this media is not replaceable, please:


 * 1) Go to the media description page and edit it to add, without deleting the original replaceable fair use template.
 * 2) On the image discussion page, write the reason why this image is not replaceable at all.

Alternatively, you can also choose to replace this non-free media by finding freely licensed media of the same subject, requesting that the copyright holder release this (or similar) media under a free license, or by taking a picture of it yourself.

If you have uploaded other non-free media, consider checking that you have specified how these images fully satisfy our non-free content criteria. You can find a list of description pages you have edited by clicking on [ this link]. Note that even if you follow steps 1 and 2 above, non-free media which could be replaced by freely licensed alternatives will be deleted 2 days after this notification (7 days if uploaded before 13 July 2006), per our non-free content policy. If you have any questions please ask them at the Media copyright questions page. Thank you. Mormegil (talk) 17:31, 10 November 2009 (UTC)


 * Hi Halibutt, I've declined the speedy for being replaceable, however I've added a tag for missing rationales. PhilKnight (talk) 11:41, 18 November 2009 (UTC)

Kazimierz Fajans
Hi Halibutt, you started the article on him back in 2005, and you decided to write his name Kazimierz. I found a lot of his publications and all of the ones I looked at were signed with Kasimir. I think this is the name he self used for the most of his life. He is recognized also mostly under that name, I think. The article should reflect this, I think. A comment would be nice, you might have more knowledge on him. --Stone (talk) 17:41, 20 November 2009 (UTC)
 * Thanks! The naming of articles is very critical. The Copernicus example is a bad example for me. The wikirule that the most comon name should be used is sometimes a problem for the nationalist lobby groups. --Stone (talk) 12:02, 21 November 2009 (UTC)
 * Rules which are 100% followed are always ending up in a stupid solution for a non existing problem. The German wiki uses a book with the mostly used German expresions and if the article name is above level 20 (I never remember the numbers right) it is a German expression and has to be written in a way done in Germany. If the expression is below 20 it is a foreign expression and has to be written like in the original language. This led to changes in the article names and some edit wars due to the changes. Stupid and time consuming, but this is always when people have to follow the rule without thinking. The Coperikus, Fritz Pregel and Kazimierz Fajans case have a easy solution, use both names and make clar which name was used by the person and which one was in general use.--Stone (talk) 10:01, 22 November 2009 (UTC)

Erika z Rumii
Dear Halibutt,

Thank you very much for making available the English language translation of Erika z Rumii by Piotr Szubarczyk and Piotr Semków from the Gdańsk office of the Institute of National Remembrance.

It helps a lot to understand the current debate around her person both in here Germany and in Poland.

While most of the article looks factual and well researched, there is one detail which looks odd to me.

On the return of Erike Steinbach's mother Erika Hermann to Germany in early 1945 the article says:

>>she packed her belongings and returned to Hanau in January 1945. The informations of her miraculous salvation from the Wilhelm Gustloff disaster are false. Erika did not want to obtain a ticket for Gustloff since she reached Germany two months before Gustloff started her first voyage on the Gdansk-Germany route.<<

According to http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Operation_Hannibal the Wilhelm Gustloff was torpedoed and sank off the Pomeranian coast, (with possibly as many as 9,400 fatalities), on January 30, 1945, as part of the hasty evacuation operation started by the Nazis on January 23, 1945. So the Gustloff can't have made the fatal trip two months after January 1945.

Erika Hermann may have made her decision to leave before the general evacuation operation was ordered on January 23rd, but the calendar tells us that it was very close to it.

This doesn't make her an "expelled" or displaced person of course. She was just a soldiers' spouse evacuated from a war zone.

It seems that the original in Polish language contains the same error on the date of the Gustloff journey, although I can only guess (see http://www.ceeol.com/aspx/getdocument.aspx?logid=5&id=289071383a874b20b95e8e8b41ba9c5d):

>>Nie czekając na najgorsze, spakowała się, zabrała dzieci i w styczniu 1945 r. wróci- ła do Niemiec, do Hanau. Nieprawdziwe są informacje o tym, że cudem uniknęła śmierci, nieskutecznie zabiegając o miejsce na statku „Wilhelm Gustloff”, który został zatopiony przez sowiecką torpedę w marcu 1945 r. i pociągnął na dno kilka tysięcy uchodźców. Erika nie starała się o bilet na „Gustloffa”, wyjechała co najmniej dwa miesiące wcześniej<<

Maybe you forward this information to the authors, Piotr Szubarczyk and Piotr Semków

Cadet Corps
The articles you created: Fryderyk Józef Moszyński, Józef Zeydlitz, Krystian Godfryd Deybel de Hammerau, refer to "Cadet Corps". Was it Cadet Corps (Russia) or something Poland-specific? Please disambiguate. I could not figure this out from the correspondig Polish wikipedia pages. - Altenmann >t 04:16, 30 November 2009 (UTC)

Authority to use some of your work
Hello Halibutt,

I would like to request your authority to use some of your maps about Poland as I have an interest in Poland and have started my own website about the country. 

The site is mainly for education but hopefully it will generate some income for me in the future, but that will be a bonus if it happens!

I would also like any photographs to do with Poland that are non-copyright.

Orphaned non-free image File:Emil Hacha.jpg
 Thanks for uploading File:Emil Hacha.jpg. The image description page currently specifies that the image is non-free and may only be used on Wikipedia under a claim of fair use. However, the image is currently orphaned, meaning that it is not used in any articles on Wikipedia. If the image was previously in an article, please go to the article and see why it was removed. You may add it back if you think that that will be useful. However, please note that images for which a replacement could be created are not acceptable for use on Wikipedia (see our policy for non-free media).

If you have uploaded other unlicensed media, please check whether they're used in any articles or not. You can find a list of "file" pages you have edited by clicking on the "my contributions" link (it is located at the very top of any Wikipedia page when you are logged in), and then selecting "File" from the dropdown box. Note that any non-free images not used in any articles will be deleted after seven days, as described on criteria for speedy deletion. Thank you.  Ja Ga  talk 22:03, 7 December 2009 (UTC)

Głos
Hello there. I was wondering if I could enlist that "proficient nitpicker" side of your contributions on a Polish-related subject that I would stand no chance of approaching myself. While I was writing the Sămănătorul article a while back, I encountered a reference to Głos, and assume from the context that it refers to either an old avatar of the present-day magazine or a completely unrelated defunct publication. The article doesn't explicitly say either. Here's where you come in: in case it's the same magazine, could you add just a bit there on how old it actually is? and in case it's not, could you suggest under what title the potential article is likely to pop up when it does? Many thanks in advance.

Incidentally, since I only noticed it now, am perplexed, and fishing a chance to comment: it's a shame about Piotrus' (partial) retirement, and I hope he will reconsider (I also hope this project will somehow do away with some of the problems that drove him to despair). Dahn (talk) 13:15, 16 December 2009 (UTC)


 * Thank you for the quick answer. It seems we're both on the run, so let me just quickly answer your (implied) question: 1886-1905. Kudos. Dahn (talk) 15:55, 16 December 2009 (UTC)

Wow... here I was expecting a stub or some indication on where to point the redlink, and here you give me one full, sound and ironclad article! Congrats, it's simply outstanding (let alone "hope that helps somehow"), and quite simply leaves me in awe. Dahn (talk) 22:33, 16 December 2009 (UTC)


 * Noted, and thank you. I've tried my hand at a slight expansion, feel free to rework it if necessary. I remembered I "caught" the term in the original source, wondered if it was worth a separate article, and then wen "hm, let me think about it later". This is a precious stone for my garden.
 * If we don't get a chance to talk over the following days, let me squeeze in an anticipatory "Merry Christmas!" Dahn (talk) 15:41, 23 December 2009 (UTC)

Thank you for the words of appreciation (I was actually quite lucky not to have screwed up the article, given that I had only met the term once or twice before and that's as much as I knew of it...; so your validation means a lot) and I'm looking forward to the expansion.

Mapy II RP
Mam parę uwag do Twoich interesujących map II RP. Narysowałeś ciekawą mapę II RP, którą potem użyłeś w wielu formach do ilustracji różnych wydarzeń politycznych przede wszystkiem z pierwszych lat II RP. Wydaje mi się, że powinieneś przejrzeć jeszcze raz wszystkie te mapy, aby dokonać paru drobnych, ale jednak bardzo istotnych poprawek - lata 1918-1923 to okres, w którym kształtowały się granice II RP i krajów sąsiednich i należy tutaj być niezwykle ostrożnym, bo każdy rok przynosił istotne zmiany (szczególnie Górny Śląsk i Litwa Środkowa obie prowincje przyłączone do Polski w 1922 r.). Oto moje uwagi:

Do poprawki:
 * 1. Granica łotewsko-sowiecka i estońsko-sowiecka była wysunięta bardziej na wschód niż obecnie. W 1945 r. Rosyjska SFRR dokonała aneksji obszaru wokół łotewskiego miasta Abrene (do 1938 Jaunlatgale), oraz na prawym brzegu Narwy na północnej części granicy estońsko-sowieckiej, a na południu tejże granicy okręgu Petseri. Na niektórych mapach dokonałeś poprawek, ale nie na wszystkich. Na jednej z nich widzę, że okręg Petseri jest już dodany do Estonii, ale nie poprawiona została granica na samej północy Estonii wokól Narwy.
 * File:PBW March 1919.png
 * File:PBW June 1920.png
 * File:PBW August 1920.png
 * File:PBW December 1919.png
 * File:Liniadmowskiego.png
 * File:Rzeczpospolita 1939 ES.svg (północna część granicy estońsko-sowieckiej na wsch. od Narwy)


 * 2. Na wszystkich mapach II RP zauważyłem, że mały obszar Polski wystaje poza Dźwinę. Wszystkie oryginalne mapy II RP, które skonsultowałem pokazują granicę polsko-sowiecką biegnącą środkiem rzeki Dźwiny, nie zostawiając ani piędzi ziemi na północnym/wschodnim brzegu rzeki w rękach polskich.

Plik:Poland1939 physical.jpg albo z mapą Galicji - tu granica pozostała niezmieniona od czasów austriackich: Plik:Galicia physical1914.jpg
 * 3. Najbardziej na południe wysunięta część Polski, szpic II RP w Czarnohorze, jest za gruby lub za krótki. W każdym bądź razie jego kształt nie jest dokładnie taki jak na przedwojennych mapach Polski. Porównaj z:


 * 3. Złe umiejscowienie Wołgogradu - w tym miejcu leży Woroneż. Wołgograd jest położony o wiele bardziej na wschód i oczywiście w okresie międzywojennym miasto nosiło nazwę Stalingrad. Podejrzewam, że zamieniłeś Woroneż na Wołgograd. Takie rzeczy się zdarzają.


 * 4. File:Rzeczpospolita 1939 ES.svg mapa ta pokazuje Polskę w 1939 r., przynajmniej wg opisu. W 1939 r. Czechosłowacja nie wyglądała już jak na Twojej mapie: Zaolzie było polskie, Słowacja istniała jako osobne państwo, Austria była już niemiecka, Czechy od marca były wcielone do Rzeszy, Polska miała granicę z Węgrami. Okręg Kłajpedy w marcu 1939 r. został wcielony do Niemiec. Na tej mapie Okręg Kłajpedy pokazany jest błędnie, bo ani sprzed, ani po marcu 1939 r: sama Kłajpeda jest przy Litwie, a połowa Mierzei Kurońskiej, która do marca 1939 r. też była przy Litwie, zaznaczona jest jako część Niemiec. Część Estonii położonej na wschód od rzeki Narwy jest tu ukazana jako część ZSRR.

Być może, że pominąłem którąś z Twoich map, przejrzyj je więc, proszę sam i dokonaj poprawek, aby służyły nam wszystkim jaknajlepiej. Najlepsze pozdrowienia, Kiejstut9 (talk) 12:49, 6 March 2010 (UTC)

General Josef Sowinski
Hi! In my family there was a legend that General Sowinski is related. Our family originated from Warsaw and the name was Sovinski or Sowinski (changed in the 1920s to our current family name, following emigration to England). I read some of the information about General Sowinski, but did not find any mention of being of Jewish origin (as our family is Jewish). Could uou possibly have more information on this matter?

You are now a Reviewer
Hello. Your account has been granted the "reviewer" userright, allowing you to to review other users' edits on certain flagged pages. Pending changes, also known as flagged protection, will be commencing a a two-month trial at approximately 23:00, 2010 June 15 (UTC).

Reviewers can review edits made by users who are not autoconfirmed to articles placed under flagged protection. Flagged protection is applied to only a small number of articles, similarly to how semi-protection is applied but in a more controlled way for the trial.

When reviewing, edits should be accepted if they are not obvious vandalism or BLP violations, and not clearly problematic in light of the reason given for protection (see Reviewing process). More detailed documentation and guidelines can be found here.

If you do not want this userright, you may ask any administrator to remove it for you at any time. Karanacs (talk) 17:28, 15 June 2010 (UTC)

File:Rossa cemetery.jpg
Hi Halibutt, per the original log here in wp this file was once added by you, author information was however lost or never added. Can you add the author information please and update the old license tag with a new or another appropriate tag? Thanks, --Martin H. (talk) 00:16, 19 July 2010 (UTC)
 * Sorry, it's been 6 years since I re-uploaded the file (from PL wiki to EN wiki) and I don't remember who the original uploader was.  // Halibutt 08:49, 24 July 2010 (UTC)
 * (Copied your comment back from my talk) I see that my idea that it is your photo was wrong, too bad. Regretably the file wasnt used in pl:Cmentarz Na Rossie w Wilnie and is also not burried somewhere in the version history. Also people who edited the page have, as far as I looked in talkpage histories and talk archives, no information about the image or its original name. If you find any information please add it to the file on Commons, I watch it, otherwise the file will go it way. --Martin H. (talk) 09:23, 24 July 2010 (UTC)

ORP Gryf (Hansa class)
Re the ORP Gryf (Hansa class) article, which you created. There are discrepancies with Mitchell & Sawyer's book on the Empire ships. Whilst M&S are reliable, they are not infallible. Where did you get your info from? A precis of the info in M&S's book can be found at List_of_Empire_ships_(Co–Cy). I intend to expand the article in the next day or so, which may mean removal of info that I can't verify, and addition of that which I can which is not currently in the article.

Lucyna Ćwierczakiewiczowa
Witaj. To chyba Ty jesteś pierwszym autorem tego hasła i to Ty napisałeś, że Ćwierczakiewiczowa jest autorką pierwszej polskiej książki kucharskiej? Spieszę Ci zatem donieść, że pierwsza polska książka kucharska ukazała się w 1682 roku ;-), a potem było ich jeszcze trochę ;-). Usunęłam też informację, jakoby pochodziła z artystokratycznej rodziny, a do innego stwierdzenia przydałoby się źródło - własne doświadczenia owszem, ale skąd wziąłeś to, że posiłkowała się jakimiś XVII- i XVIII-wiecznymi pamiętnikami? Dobrze byłoby to wyjaśnić. Pozdrawiam. Gytha (talk) 23:19, 25 September 2010 (UTC)
 * Hmm, lepiej unikać skrótów myślowych ;-), zwłaszcza że zostało to powielone w innych wersjach Wikipedii tudzież w innych miejscach w necie. Nb. pierwszą powszechnie dostępną też nie była - pomijając już nawet Czernieckiego (wznawianego jeszcze na początku XIX wieku, pod dużo przystępniejszym tytułem Kucharka wiejska i miejska), Wielądka czy Szyttlera, wcześniej w Wilnie wyszła już "nowoczesna" i niemal równie popularna Kucharka litewska Zawadzkiej (pomijam Ciundziewicką, bo jej praca dotyczyła bardziej gospodarstwa wiejskiego i książką kucharską była jedynie w części). Ćwierczakiewiczowa jest współcześnie najbardziej znana, bo zrobił jej publicity Prus ;-). No ale mniejsza, grunt, że już jest dobrze. Pozdrawiam. Gytha (talk) 09:27, 28 September 2010 (UTC)

Lemkos
Some discussion about Polish-Ukrainian conflicts around the time of WWII are here. One of the points of agreement seems to be that there should be a separate article on Lemkos in regard to these events. I seem to recollect that you wrote some stuff about Lemkos way back when which is relevant here. I'm lazy and time constrained though, so I don't feel like pouring through your 2005 or 2006 or whatever edits to find it though, so, despite the fact you're not very active these days, I was wondering if you could point me to some relevant articles which could serve as a starting point for such an article.

Sorry to bother you on a non-wiki related mattter...
Hello,

I'm really sorry to bother you on a non-wiki related matter, but I saw on your User page that you are a Polish Jew. I have to write a short story for school, and I'm trying to find out if Polish Jews (particularly Polish Reform Jews) have middle names. If Polish Jews do have middle names, is this a recent custom, or have Polish Jews historically followed the custom of having middle names? Again, I'm sorry to bother you, but I want so much for my story to be accurate, and I don't know who else to ask! Thank you so, so much for your time.
