A belated welcome!


Here's wishing you a belated welcome to Wikipedia, Denle1. I see that you've already been around a while and wanted to thank you for your contributions. Though you seem to have been successful in finding your way around, you may benefit from following some of the links below, which help editors get the most out of Wikipedia:
 * Introduction
 * The five pillars of Wikipedia
 * Contributing to Wikipedia
 * How to edit a page
 * Help pages
 * How to write a great article
 * Editor's index to Wikipedia

Also, when you post on talk pages you should sign your name using four tildes ( ~ ); that should automatically produce your username and the date after your post.

I hope you enjoy editing here and being a Wikipedian! If you have any questions, feel free to leave me a message on my talk page, consult Questions, or place helpme on your talk page and ask your question there.

Again, welcome! User:Diannaa (talk) 18:36, 20 July 2018 (UTC) — Diannaa 🍁 (talk) 17:51, 20 July 2018 (UTC)

Replaceable fair use File:Rujevica Stadium, HNK Rijeka, Rijeka, Croatia, July 2017.jpg
Thanks for uploading File:Rujevica Stadium, HNK Rijeka, Rijeka, Croatia, July 2017.jpg. I noticed that this file is being used under a claim of fair use. However, I think that the way it is being used fails the first non-free content criterion. This criterion states that files used under claims of fair use may have no free equivalent; in other words, if the file could be adequately covered by a freely-licensed file or by text alone, then it may not be used on Wikipedia. If you believe this file is not replaceable, please:


 * 1) Go to the file description page and add the text   below the original replaceable fair use template, replacing   with a short explanation of why the file is not replaceable.
 * 2) On the file discussion page, write a full explanation of why you believe the file is not replaceable.

Alternatively, you can also choose to replace this non-free media item 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 creating new media yourself (for example, by taking your own photograph of the subject).

If you have uploaded other non-free media, consider checking that you have specified how these media 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 the non-free content policy. If you have any questions, please ask them at the Media copyright questions page. Thank you. – Train2104 (t • c) 22:22, 1 August 2017 (UTC)

Copying within Wikipedia requires attribution
Thank you for your contributions to Wikipedia. It appears that you copied or moved text from Dražen Petrović into Sport in Croatia. While you are welcome to re-use Wikipedia's content, here or elsewhere, Wikipedia's licensing does require that you provide attribution to the original contributor(s). When copying within Wikipedia, this is supplied at minimum in an edit summary at the page into which you've copied content, disclosing the copying and linking to the copied page, e.g.,. It is good practice, especially if copying is extensive, to also place a properly formatted copied template on the talk pages of the source and destination. The attribution has been provided for this situation, but if you have copied material between pages before, even if it was a long time ago, please provide attribution for that duplication. You can read more about the procedure and the reasons at Copying within Wikipedia. Thank you. If you are the sole author of the prose that was copied, attribution is not required. — Diannaa 🍁 (talk) 17:49, 20 July 2018 (UTC)

Do not mark major edits as minor
Hi Denle1! I noticed that you recently marked an edit as minor that may not have been. "Minor edit" has a very specific definition on Wikipedia – it refers only to superficial edits that could never be the subject of a dispute, such as typo corrections or reverting obvious vandalism. Any edit that changes the meaning of an article is not a minor edit, even if it only concerns a single word. Please see Help:Minor edit for more information. Thank you. —J. M.

Stipe Miocic
Hi Denle1, good day, plse read WP:MMABIO notability guidlines. And pls note that WP:ETHNICITY - proud of one.s ethnicity does not mean it is relevant to the subject's notability. Pls do not add his ethnicity in the WP:LEAD section again. Thank you. Cassiopeia(talk) 08:45, 17 August 2020 (UTC)

Edin Terzic
Hello, I saw that you are changing the part German-Bosnian-Croatian to German-Croatian. May I know the reason why? He was born in Germany, to a Bosnian dad and a Croatian mom. This makes him German-Bosnian-Croatian. WikiUserFromTheBalkans (talk) 16:45, 15 April 2023 (UTC)


 * Edin Terzic is a German and Croatian national. The fact that his father is Bosnian doesn't make him Bosnian by nationality. The fact that his mother is a Croat is also completely irrelevant. The source, which you were using as a reference, also calls him a "former German-Croatian football player". The term "German-Bosnian-Croatian" is illegitimate and doesn't exist on Wikipedia.

May 2023
You currently appear to be engaged in an edit war&#32; according to the reverts you have made on Rade Šerbedžija. This means that you are repeatedly changing content back to how you think it should be although other editors disagree. Users are expected to collaborate with others, to avoid editing disruptively, and to try to reach a consensus, rather than repeatedly undoing other users' edits once it is known that there is a disagreement.

Points to note: If you find yourself in an editing dispute, use the article's talk page to discuss controversial changes and work towards a version that represents consensus among editors. You can post a request for help at an appropriate noticeboard or seek dispute resolution. In some cases, it may be appropriate to request temporary page protection. If you engage in an edit war, you may be blocked from editing.  Vanjagenije   (talk)  20:20, 20 May 2023 (UTC)
 * 1) Edit warring is disruptive regardless of how many reverts you have made;
 * 2) Do not edit war even if you believe you are right.


 * This is quite rich. You could've just opened a discussion about Rade Serbedzija's nationality, rather than being petty and obnoxious. It's obvious that >you< personally didn't like the reverts which were done (involving a Croatian actor, who is a Serb from Croatia) and that this has nothing to do with the rule of editing itself.
 * Also, after reading further about edit-warring - 5 reverts/edits in a whole month don't qualify as edit-warring, as per its wiki article itself. So, this looks more like you abusing your position and powers on wikipedia. Fine by me, both of us can play this game. Denle1 (talk) 11:02, 21 May 2023 (UTC)
 * Then you obviously did not read WP:EW carefully enough: ... it is absolutely possible to engage in edit warring without breaking the three-revert rule, or even coming close to doing so..  Vanjagenije  (talk)  18:05, 21 May 2023 (UTC)
 * It seems that Denle1 (talk) is involved in another edit war,  this time it's Slavica Ecclestone's article. The person is obsessed with people born in former Yugoslavia, multi ethnic country  dissolved in 1992. Dekker2 (talk) 18:02, 2 December 2023 (UTC)

Slavica Radić Ecclestone
It's very sad that you disrupted Ecclestone's page with false entry about her personal details: her British nationality by marriage (she resides in Britain) and Serb ethnicity (parents were Serbs, she was born in former Yugoslavia). You are driven by nationalism, intolerance; Wikipedia promotes totally opposite values. Dekker2 (talk) 14:25, 2 December 2023 (UTC)
