The Princely Houses of Poland
Thank you for that article. When you create a new Poland-related article, please list it at Portal:Poland/New article announcements, so we can help with fleshing it out. You may also want to use Polish letters (i.e. Radziwiłł instead of Radziwill).--Piotr Konieczny aka Prokonsul Piotrus Talk 18:33, 2 May 2006 (UTC)

Guenther Grass
Hi,

He's not generally regarded Polish and he doesn't declare himself Polish either. Guenther Grass says he's German. Kpjas 18:03, 25 August 2006 (UTC)

Stewart
Of course she is of Polish descent/Polish-American. But we need a source that just calls her "Polish" if we are to put her on an actual list of Poles. Mad Jack 15:59, 27 August 2006 (UTC)
 * No, I know that. Your source doesn't call her "Polish". THat's what it needs to do for her to be on the list of Polish people (i.e. as opposed to the list of Polish-Americans). Mad Jack 17:24, 27 August 2006 (UTC)
 * Oh, and Iggy Pop is not Polish at all (the IMDB is full of fan-submitted junk information and should not be used as a source). According to this full-length book biography, searchable online, - Iggy Pop is Irish and English on his father's side (his father was adopted by a Swedish-American family, hence the name) and Danish and Norwegian on his mother's. Cheers... Mad Jack 17:36, 27 August 2006 (UTC)

Wallington, New Jersey ancestry info
What is the source for the Wallington, New Jersey ancestry info you added, and which you are adding to other articles? A source should always be indicated and this would be helpful for Walington and other municipalities. Alansohn 17:49, 5 November 2006 (UTC)

Ancestries
I note that you are adding information on ancestries to various city articles. Please take a moment to ensure that the articles you are linking to are actually articles about the relevant ethnic groups; for example, Germans or German American rather than German; French people rather than French, and so forth. Thanks for your contributions to Wikipedia! --Russ (talk) 16:56, 9 November 2006 (UTC)

 * Er... do I? -- Mattythewhite 22:02, 31 December 2006 (UTC)
 * It wasn't me, I've just looked back on Johnson's page, and it was IP 81.111.76.84 that added this category. -- Mattythewhite 22:06, 31 December 2006 (UTC)
 * Thats okay mate. -- Mattythewhite 22:12, 31 December 2006 (UTC)

List of Polish Jews
Your help is needed in preventing the addition of unsourced names to the list. The tagged names like Wocjciech Jerzy Has and Michał Waszyński have stayed on the list unreferenced for weeks now. I tried to get others to look for what I couldn't find by making a comment on Source on the talk page. I was ignored. These names can not stay forever as some people wish. 141.213.211.73 02:10, 10 January 2007 (UTC)

Polanski
Please discuss the move at talk:Roman Polanski. So far no one has shown that he uses a diacritical, so I don't see why we would insert one. -Will Beback · † · 01:37, 27 February 2007 (UTC)

Vietnamese Europeans
Re your edit: Got a source for the number of Vietnamese people in Poland? Thanks, cab 01:41, 27 February 2007 (UTC)

Republic of Ireland
That's a pretty neat fact about the language. Can you provide a cite for it in the article, though? Please don't remove the citation required tag! If you need some help adding your reference, I'll be glad to assist. Thanks :) - Alison ☺ 16:59, 16 March 2007 (UTC)
 * Thanks for the reply. I added your reference - Take a look :) - Alison ☺ 17:16, 16 March 2007 (UTC)

Category:Polish Jews
Hi. I see you added Benny Begin to this category. Although his father Menachem was indeed Polish (albeit born in Belarus), Benny is a Sabra (i.e. native-born Israeli) and I don't think he should be in this category - almost all Jews born in Israel were born to parents or grandparents from other countries. If you have no objections, I will remove him and several others (e.g. Ehud Barak) from this category. Number  5  7  11:07, 9 May 2007 (UTC)
 * Yes, he is of Polish origin, but as he was born in Israel and doesn't hold Polish citizenship (like Barak), he isn't really a "Polish Jew", more like an "Israeli of Polish descent". As I said, the problem is that almost all Israelis could be classed in this way if this definition is used. Ben Sahar on the other hand, is a Polish Jew as although he was born in Israel, he holds Polish citizenship. Number   5  7  11:24, 9 May 2007 (UTC)
 * Do you think ethnic origin for Jews in Israel (beyond Ashkenazi/Mizrahi/Ethiopian) is a notable enough topic to merit a category? I am of the opinion that it isn't, but if you think it is, try bringing it up on the Wikipedia talk:WikiProject Israel to see what others think. Number   5  7  11:39, 9 May 2007 (UTC)

Polish Britons
Usunolem "* Jennifer Martinska, dream-liver" a nie Michael Marks. JRWalko 21:05, 30 June 2007 (UTC)

Country / origin categories
Why do you remove a category from René Goscinny again, even after I added a source on the talkl page (as requested), when on the other hand you add such a category to Diane Wakoski, even though there is no source for that either? Please be a bit consistent in the rules you apply... 18:37, 5 July 2007 (UTC)

Coetzee
First, it makes the term "Polish Australian" meaningless if we let a generation thrice removed determine the nature of citizenship. Second, there is nothing in Coetzee's output particularly Polish. Cheers. Iterator12n  Talk  19:56, 3 September 2007 (UTC)

Paul Erdos
Hi, you added category "University of Warsaw alumni" to the article Paul Erdős. What were the reasons/basis for that? It appears that Paul Erdos was not really connected with Warsaw Univ. If this category is not a mistake, and you have some interesting info (with a source) on the topic, maybe it should be added to the article? Best, Andrzej (Stotr (talk) 20:21, 9 December 2007 (UTC))

Gwyneth Paltrow

WikiProject Poland
We are now dividing our members into active, semi-active (have not edited a Poland-related article in more then three months) and inactive (have not edited at all for three months or more). You are active on Wikipedia but I see you've not edited any Poland-related articles in in many months; we are moving you to semi-active category. Please consider participating in our project activities again in the future.--Piotr Konieczny aka Prokonsul Piotrus 17:41, 24 March 2009 (UTC)

Unreferenced BLPs
Hello Kowalmistrz! Thank you for your contributions. I am a bot alerting you that 1 of the articles that you created  is tagged as an Unreferenced Biography of a Living Person. The biographies of living persons policy requires that all personal or potentially controversial information be sourced. In addition, to ensure verifiability, all biographies should be based on reliable sources. If you were to bring this article up to standards, it would greatly help us with the current Category:All_unreferenced_BLPs article backlog. Once the article is adequately referenced, please remove the unreferencedBLP tag. Here is the article:

Thanks!--DASHBot (talk) 06:19, 25 January 2010 (UTC)

Polish Cultural Institute
I have tagged Polish Cultural Institute for speedy deletion because it consists mainly of promotional language. If you object to the deletion of the article, please do not remove the tag; instead, place a hangon template on the article and explain on the talk page why you believe Polish Cultural Institute should be retained. Thanks, Cunard (talk) 07:36, 2 May 2010 (UTC)

Copyvio at Princely Houses of Poland
I've had to delete large portions of the content you added at Princely Houses of Poland. It appears that the comments in the table were directly copied from polishnobles.com, a copyrighted web site. That's a copyright violation, and so I was required to remove it. If you wish to write new text to restore this information, please review the copyright policy and copyright FAQ before proceeding—as I'm sure you're aware, copyright violations can lead to blocks. // ⌘macwhiz (talk) 16:43, 6 November 2010 (UTC)

Hi. I am conducting another activity check for WikiProject Poland. It seems to me that you are "semi-active". Feel free to change your status here as soon as you make 10 or more edits on Poland-related articles per month! --Piotr Konieczny aka Prokonsul Piotrus 19:16, 14 April 2011 (UTC)

Proposed deletion of Ha!art


The article Ha!art has been proposed for deletion&#32; because of the following concern:
 * no verifiable evidence of notability (WP:N), there's no data in the article to verify any criteria of WP:NME, no basic info like circulation or year of the first issue, poor language (for eg. it sounds like there's articles mostly about two musical bands), no sources, seems to be original research

While all contributions to Wikipedia are appreciated, content or articles may be deleted for any of several reasons.

You may prevent the proposed deletion by removing the notice, but please explain why in your edit summary or on the article's talk page.

Disambiguation link notification for May 19
Hi. Thank you for your recent edits. Wikipedia appreciates your help. We noticed though that when you edited Royal intermarriage, you added a link pointing to the disambiguation page Leopold I (check to confirm | fix with Dab solver). Such links are almost always unintended, since a disambiguation page is merely a list of "Did you mean..." article titles. Read the FAQ* Join us at the DPL WikiProject.

Order of precedence help, please
User talk:Trajanis (re: Order of precedence in England and Wales) DBD 14:20, 24 July 2013 (UTC)


 * Kowalmistrz, I do not believe I am making a basic mistake. Even the official website of the British monarchy (precedence page) states: "Generally speaking, the children, grandchildren and great-grandchildren of a Sovereign, as well as their spouses, are members of the Royal Family. First cousins of the monarch may also be included. Children are included on coming of age or after they have completed their education." http://www.royal.gov.uk/ThecurrentRoyalFamily/Successionandprecedence/Precedence/Overview.aspx  As such, a royal HRH great grandson of the current Sovereign certainly ranks at the Royal Family level (at the very least following HRH Prince Michael).   By contrast, George, Earl of St Andrews is a great grandchild of a former Sovereign, so I see no basis to place the new Prince George of Cambridge below him in precedence.   In any event, we shall see for certain where the new prince fits in the table of precedence at the Royal Family level when he comes of age, but it is misleading in my opinion to place him now at the level of the Earl of St Andrews.Trajanis (talk) 05:30, 25 July 2013 (UTC)

Your account will be renamed
Hello,

The developer team at Wikimedia is making some changes to how accounts work, as part of our on-going efforts to provide new and better tools for our users like cross-wiki notifications. These changes will mean you have the same account name everywhere. This will let us give you new features that will help you edit and discuss better, and allow more flexible user permissions for tools. One of the side-effects of this is that user accounts will now have to be unique across all 900 Wikimedia wikis. See the announcement for more information.

Unfortunately, your account clashes with another account also called Kowalmistrz. To make sure that both of you can use all Wikimedia projects in future, we have reserved the name Kowalmistrz~enwiki that only you will have. If you like it, you don't have to do anything. If you do not like it, you can pick out a different name. If you think you might own all of the accounts with this name and this message is in error, please visit Special:MergeAccount to check and attach all of your accounts to prevent them from being renamed.

Your account will still work as before, and you will be credited for all your edits made so far, but you will have to use the new account name when you log in.

Sorry for the inconvenience.

Yours, Keegan Peterzell Community Liaison, Wikimedia Foundation 01:12, 20 March 2015 (UTC)

 This account has been renamed as part of single-user login finalisation. If you own this account you can |log in using your previous username and password for more information.

Proposed deletion of John M. Budarz


The article John M. Budarz has been proposed for deletion&#32;because of the following concern: "Although this gentleman is often mentioned in publications from his day, there is nothing that would qualify as 'in-depth' coverage of him. There is no encyclopedic claim to notability here - he was a man who did his job, and is recorded in records as having done that job, but there is nothing to indicate he was encyclopedically notable at doing his job."
