I will not edit war with you; that is not the style of a WikiGnome. I will not say "no" to you as your summary did to me, regarding my 22:22 UTC 19 Oct 2014 Hatnote one-letter, minor edit from convenience to conveniences (while I made other grammar edits to improve the page):


 * "In many cases the hatnote also includes a brief description of the subject of the present article, for readers' conveniences:"

The New Oxford American Dictionary (3rd edition by Oxford University Press, Inc.) gives the following definitions and example of usage for the word convenience:

Definitions:
 * the state of being able to proceed with something with little effort or difficulty
 * a thing that contributes to an easy and effortless way of life
 * [British] a public toilet

A dictionary example (also from the Oxford Dictionary of [British] English (3rd edition by Oxford University Press, Inc.)):


 * Voicemail was seen as one of the desktop conveniences of the electronic office.

Therefore, the following is correct also:


 * Hatnotes were seen as one of the readers' conveniences of the Wikipedia site.

By the way, your summary stated, "conveniences in plural = toilets". As an American, I first read your summary as rude, until I researched and determined that you are a British librarian, and in British, convenience means toilet.

Overall, this exemplifies several of the principles of Wikipedia etiquette:


 * "Be careful choosing the words you write: what you mean might not be what others understand. Likewise, be careful how you interpret what you read: what you understand might not be what others mean."
 * "Assume good faith."
 * "Remember The Golden Rule: Treat others as you would have them treat you."


 * "Be polite."
 * "Do not hesitate to politely let the other know if you are not comfortable with their tone."


 * "Avoid reverts whenever possible, and stay within the three-revert rule except where exemptions apply."

Please ensure that you make Wikipedia an enjoyable place for everyone.

Have an awesome day!

I'm finished editing for awhile; it is not worth the inconveniences. You could have thanked me for my other edits on the page, but you chose to revert an "s" and told me "no".

Welcome to Project Genealogy.
Welcome to Project Genealogy.

Since you were among the few who submitted your name on the member list, and chose to put the user box on your page, I want to ask you whether you would be interested to join a couple of users in order to apply for the establishing a user group, see https://meta.wikimedia.org/wiki/Wikimedia_user_groups#eligibility

which will serve as one step ahead in direction of setting up a new Wikimedia genealogy project. We need a couple of names more for that.

Best regards,

Your page contains reference to Stovpyn, Toporiv...
Hi, I found your page interesting, I discovered it by accident when looking for reference to "Julianka", a manor house local to Stovpyn. Google showed a reference to "parishes records... including Julianka" but your page has the last few words edited out? I presume Google cached the other version at some point.

My interest is in Stovpyn as my mother was born there in the 1920s and later deported to Siberia, your translation of the 1800s census is useful as I have that in the original Polish but had not completed a full translation.

I guess my question is: why do you have this info? Are you also researching that town? Also, do you have any more info re Julianka? My grandfather owned part of it...

I'm a visitor the the site so not sure how I read your response, hopefully on your page! Otherwise I'll get back with an email address you can reach me on.
