audio templates
Hi, you do not seem to be aware that the second argument of the Audio-IPA template serves to give a transcription of the pronunciation in the International Phonetic Alphabet. Please, do not use it for other purposes, as in. If you are not familiar with IPA, or if you just want to include the sound file without transcription, you can use the Audio template. Thx — Emil J.

Response
So? Anna also hasn't got Macedonian etimology, and it is used in Macedonia. Please, free your mind from nationalism before reverting a valid category - Macedonian given names, that is, names which are given to people in Macedonia. This is Wikipedia, the free encycopedia, and not Nationalismopedia. Bomac (talk) 19:20, 12 November 2008 (UTC)
 * Than why do you erase the placename? Is it stupid only because it's from Macedonia? You have not liberated your mind yet... Chill out with proud nationalism, bro, it looks stupid. Bomac (talk) 08:25, 13 November 2008 (UTC)
 * As the sources you deleted [| here] indicate, the origin is Ancient Greek. The word dates back as far as Homer (Ilias, 13.736).  Following your logic (of taking into account origin instead of use), shouldn't we remove it from Category:English given names as well, since the English language didn't exist then? Why can't the name's use (as Stefan) in Macedonia be recognized? Wakari07 (talk) 17:57, 13 November 2008 (UTC)

Answer
I am not confused. I was editing the category: Macedonian given names, and I've added Stephen (Stefan = Стефан) in it (before this, I saw the category: English given names in the article). So back it off, I won't put the category in the article which exited you so much. Regards, Bomac (talk) 12:10, 16 November 2008 (UTC)

Syncretism reversion
Look up the definition of contradictory and contrary. Contradictory statements, logically speaking, are opposites of one another - that is, the truth of one implies the falsehood of the other just as the falsehood of one implies the truth of the other. Contrary statements, again logically speaking, may both be false but not both can be true in the same sense. Therefore in this case the word "contradictory" is not as correct as is "contrary" because two beliefs may be utterly false and yet opposites at the same time, whereas if they were truly contradictory then one would have to be true and the other would have to be false. Thus, I'm re-editing the page. If you decide that "contradictory" is still the better word then I'll leave the page as you see fit.

Re: Audio files
I've just come across the audio file you added to Xenophanes' article, and clarified its modern Greek status. I was also a bit puzzled by its blue-linking, since "Xenophánes o Kolofoneos" doesn't seem to correspond to any known transliteration system. Anyway, could you indicate me, if you have added audio files to any other ancient Greece themed articles? If yes, they would most certainly be in need of inspection. Btw, I hope you've found my response to your ancient Greek pronunciation related queries somewhat helpful. Omnipedian (talk) 00:34, 7 December 2008 (UTC)

Hellenistic/Macedonian
Dear friend, thanks for the comment that you left on my talk page.

I agree with almost all what you wrote as far as I understood it. Why do you think we have opposite opinions I really do not know. What did I say that you did not like? I am not Macedonian, neither Bulgarian nor Albanian and also not a Greek. and have no ambition to dispute any of these territories. I also think that nobody has historical rights on some territories. These rights have the people who are there now. There is no need for drawing new borders, we need to open the existing borders.

Unfortunately I did not understand all what you wrote. There are people who speak Slave on the territory of the ancient northern Macedonia and Paionia and they say that they are Macedonians because they have been living on that territory (probably for 15 centuries) and are a mixed people of certainly very different origins which we really do not know. What we know is that they use one south slave language. They have their regional history and that history concedes with and continues the history of the Ancient Macedonia, Greece, Roman history, Ottoman history and later modern history of the Balkans. Where is the problem?

The Macedonian Empire and later Roman Empire are responsible for the spreading and the success of Greek culture. In the 19th century it was given a name Hellenism (by Droysen, German historian). That culture does not coincide with any nation, any etnie. Hellenic is not Greek, although the Greeks Hellen, as you, probably are. This is a fact. Had the Persian Empire prevailed, the Greek culture would look differently today.

Where is the problem with Argead dynasty? Did I say something wrong about them? I share opinion of Hammond and the other historians who are indecisive whether it was autochthon Macedonian dynasty or Greek dynasty.

It is nice discussing with you, but please say explicitly what do you think where we disagree. If you clearly state where I made mistake, I will probably be able to answer.Draganparis (talk) 22:07, 9 December 2008 (UTC)

Alexander and Barry Kemp
Do you have a page number where Kemp says something about Alexander and Egypt? Thanks. dougweller (talk) 18:45, 14 January 2009 (UTC)
 * you mean in that book right? see there. i think it's page 345 where content is restricted in GoogleBooks. All the sources i mentioned there explicitly say Alex was welcomed as a liberator in Egypt. i wasn't the one who originally put that up. i'm just defending the article from a reckless Iranian editor with a serious POV-pushing case. --CuteHappyBrute (talk) 01:25, 15 January 2009 (UTC)

Template:Infobox Royalty
Hiya mate. I see you tried to do something at the template. What was it? Maybe I can help? DBD 10:37, 23 January 2009 (UTC)
 * I've done it for you. It involves another parameter in the Infobox implementation. But you'd know that if you read the documentation! DBD 11:14, 23 January 2009 (UTC)

Brian Jonestown Massacre
Regarding the fan pov on this article, here is just a small example from the music section:

"Even the incorporation of influences from world music such as Middle Eastern and Brazilian music seem to be filtered through the matrix of their '60s heroes"

Lake Stymfalia interest
Hello CuteHappyBrute. Do you remember me neptunekh? You asked me about 6 years ago what my interest in Lake Stymfalia and you said your father is from there and visits there alot. I just wanted to let you my interest in that has to do with Greek mythology and the Stymphalian_birds. I did research on the internet about it. Sorry for the late 5 and a hald year reply. Just thought you would want to know. Venustar84 (talk) 05:33, 7 May 2014 (UTC)
