False Friends of the Slavist
Please have a look at False Friends of the Slavist. With your language skills, you can help us very much there, though there is not too much to be done. See also wikibooks:Talk:False Friends of the Slavist for details on what is still needed. Thanks in advance! --Daniel Bunčić 18:47, 1 March 2006 (UTC)

Banitsa
You might have noticed that there are two villages named Banitsa in the Serres prefecture, one of them destroyed. The other one has the Greek name Simvoli. In this sense, the entry in the Bulgarian WP bg:Баница (Ном Сяр) is misleading. A n d r e a s   (T) 22:34, 15 May 2006 (UTC)
 * Yes I've noticed that thanks, I'll think of something (probably Simvoli:-)).--Miko Stavrev 13:43, 16 May 2006 (UTC)

I wanted to extend an invitation to you to join the WikiProject dedicated to organizing and improving articles on the subject, which can be found at: WikiProject Eastern Orthodoxy.

Fair use rationale for Image:Kaloyanovo-coa.gif

If you have uploaded other fair use media, consider checking that you have specified the fair use rationale on those pages too. You can find a list of 'image' 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 "Image" from the dropdown box.

Orphaned non-free media (Image:Kaloyanovo-coa.gif)
Thanks for uploading Image:Kaloyanovo-coa.gif. The media description page currently specifies that it is non-free and may only be used on Wikipedia under a claim of fair use. However, it is currently orphaned, meaning that it is not used in any articles on Wikipedia. If the media 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 media 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 'image' 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 "Image" from the dropdown box. Note that all non-free media not used in any articles will be deleted after seven days, as described on criteria for speedy deletion. Thank you. BetacommandBot 15:12, 4 November 2007 (UTC)

Poroia
It's very annoying when you keep writing that Poroia means upper downpour in bulgarian. Do you know why? I would not have any problem if bulgarians were more acceptive in greek contributions about villages such as Melnik that were greek (Μελένικο). Every time I put the greek name in the article there will be someone that will delete it!!! They are so fanatic that they have turned the name of Kordopoulos to kordopulov!!! I believe that everyone educated knows that Melnik was a greek town in 1913, but they keep deleting things they don't like,without any explanation. In this case, if they continue vandalism I will also remove bulgarian name of the village Ano Poroia which in fact was never called Gorni Poroy.(It's name was Poroy Balaa or something like that) You should also know that Poroia might even come from the greek words poros (περασμα προς τα Βόρεια) + roia (από τα νερά που ρέουν στην περιοχή) You should also consider that I have never written the fact the greeks were forced to leave Melnik, or that bulgarians once burnt greek church of Poroia. I wonder what would have been done if a greek wrote about that.Wouldn't it be deleted immediately? —Preceding unsigned comment added by Geotol (talk • contribs) 04:36, 24 March 2008 (UTC)
 * Look at the Bulgarian W - it's said that the Greek name is Meleniko (even the katharevoussa form is mentioned :-))). If you have sourced info about Poroia - feel free to add it - but do not remove one. --Miko Stavrev (talk) 06:39, 24 March 2008 (UTC)
 * Look also in the English Wiki for Melnik (Bulgaria). There is also Meleniko + in Greek letters (Μελένικο) immediately after Мелник. There is also a referenced text about the former Greek population of Melnik and how and by whom they were forced to leave. Look also discussion for this article. This is not so for most (not to say all) Greek towns and villages. About the burning of Gorni Poroi, do you refer to this episode, as described in the Report of the Carnegie Foundation: On the same day, July 9, 1913, Greek troops burned the Bulgarian villages in the neighborhood of Demir-Hissar, notably Gorni-Poroi, Dolni-Poroi, Starochevo and Kechislik.--Lantonov (talk) 15:21, 4 November 2008 (UTC)

Macedonians in Bulgaria
Since you're here, I want to point you out to the article. Not for engaging in edit-wars off course. I've edited a lot of things with reliable sources. As you're an expert on the subject, any new sources on the issue are more than welcome. -- L a v e o l  T 14:22, 6 April 2008 (UTC)

This article only does not document anything about transportation. Can you please add some information about transportation?  Otolemur crassicaudatus  (talk) 13:33, 22 May 2008 (UTC)

Image source problem with Image:AlekoBogoridi.jpg
Thanks for uploading Image:AlekoBogoridi.jpg. I noticed that the file's description page currently doesn't specify who created the content, so the copyright status is unclear. If you did not create this file yourself, you will need to specify the owner of the copyright. If you obtained it from a website, then a link to the website from which it was taken, together with a restatement of that website's terms of use of its content, is usually sufficient information. However, if the copyright holder is different from the website's publisher, their copyright should also be acknowledged.

As well as adding the source, please add a proper copyright licensing tag if the file doesn't have one already. If you created/took the picture, audio, or video then the GFDL-self tag can be used to release it under the GFDL. If you believe the media meets the criteria at Non-free content, use a tag such as or one of the other tags listed at Image copyright tags. See Image copyright tags for the full list of copyright tags that you can use.

If you have uploaded other files, consider checking that you have specified their source and tagged them, too. You can find a list of files you have uploaded by following this link. Unsourced and untagged images may be deleted one week after they have been tagged, as described on criteria for speedy deletion. If the image is copyrighted under a non-free license (per Fair use) then the image will be deleted 48 hours after 13:19, 14 July 2008 (UTC). If you have any questions please ask them at the Media copyright questions page. Thank you. OsamaK 13:19, 14 July 2008 (UTC)

South Slavic
hello user Miko. As you may or may not know their has been a new consensus achieved regarding the Slavic names in Greece. If you would be so kind and to end the reverting to "south slavic" it would be greatly apprecitated. Thank you. PMK1 (talk) 01:10, 19 December 2008 (UTC)
