Interesting article
Happy New Year! Best wishes for health, happiness and prosperity for you and your family. And I thought you might be interested in this article about the Nekrassov cossacks:. best, Faustian (talk) 18:25, 10 January 2008 (UTC)
 * Hey thanks a lot, I wish I could contribute more. Thanks for your support at Zaporozhians, I have requested a third opinion now, so hopefully we could settle the dispute. BTW I emailed you at new year but it returned as invalid address, can you confirm please as faustian17@hotmail.com does not seem to work...--Kuban Cossack 16:40, 11 January 2008 (UTC)


 * Try faustian17@yahoo.com. I will check it over the weekend (am rather busy now).  Warmly, Faustian (talk) 01:47, 12 January 2008 (UTC)

Award

 * Why thanks, but I don't edit on conservapedia...--Kuban Cossack 13:57, 18 January 2008 (UTC)


 * You making sure the information about Ukraine on Wikipedia stays balanced is the reason for the award, conservapedia showed me what happens if hyper-nationalist take over. I hope you realize that people like Hillock65 & Bandurist are useful to make sure Russian nationalist don't take over Wikipedia. By the way: you still haven't told me if orange and blue are a good combination of colors :) —Preceding unsigned comment added by Mariah-Yulia (talk • contribs) 20:18, 18 January 2008 (UTC)

Saint Petersburg Metro
Hi, I added a line in Saint Petersburg Metro, why didn't you like it?
 * Who announced it? Source, attribution, and moreover not exactly encyclopedic.--Kuban Cossack 13:55, 18 January 2008 (UTC)

If you're asking for the source, then you deleted the sentence without reading it. I need to add more details (which are the planned new lines, financing and people in charge) but that doesn't give you a valid reason for immediate deletion. You could have asked on my discussion page (fixed IP). I still have this article, will look at it. —Preceding unsigned comment added by 213.159.118.174 (talk) 15:31, 18 January 2008 (UTC) Actually the article in the SPB times was based on fontanka.ru. There are really lots of news about Piter's metro on fontanka.ru. I tried to find the article used by SPB times but there are so many articles about the metro, even narrowing the search to last december's article isn't enough...wait, yeah, here it is : http://www.fontanka.ru/2007/12/18/065/ (I searched "metro milliardov"). I think it can be useful for the SPB Metro article. —Preceding unsigned comment added by 213.159.118.174 (talk) 11:27, 19 January 2008 (UTC) Yesterday Friday was a full page article in the SPB edition of "Metro" (the infomercial distributed in metro station). I didn't take it, I just saw the title was "41 stations will be built until 2020". And there was a map with the position of all ~100 stations. Metro took this information from somewhere. Although it all sounds like promises politicians do before elections...89.16.37.170 (talk) —Preceding comment was added at 19:56, 25 January 2008 (UTC)

Speedy deletion of Template:Moscow Rail Terminals
A tag has been placed on Template:Moscow Rail Terminals requesting that it be speedily deleted from Wikipedia. This has been done under section T3 of the criteria for speedy deletion, because it is a deprecated or orphaned template. After seven days, if it is still unused and the speedy deletion tag has not been removed, the template will be deleted.

If the template is intended to be substituted, please feel free to remove the speedy deletion tag and please consider putting a note on the template's page indicating that it is substituted so as to avoid any future mistakes (&lt;noinclude>&#123;{transclusionless}}&lt;/noinclude>).

Thanks. --MZMcBride (talk) 21:59, 13 February 2008 (UTC)
 * No I think it can be deleted, as a suitable replacement has been made. Best way to do it is to redirect it, but since it is orphaned...be done with it. --Kuban Cossack 12:44, 14 February 2008 (UTC)

Happy Valentine's Day!

 * You sure? :)))—Ëzhiki (Igels Hérissonovich Ïzhakoff-Amursky) • (yo?); 15:27, 14 February 2008 (UTC)
 * Well I must be in the 52%... a narrow, but a majority nonetheless... :)--Kuban Cossack 15:29, 14 February 2008 (UTC)

Your inquiry
That does not look good at all. I am not going to distribute blame here, but in my view both parties contributed their shares.

Please consider a more collaborative approach rather than reverting each other's edits as you did here, here, here, or here. It makes very little sense to replace one's unsourced contribution with your own unsourced contribution (as it was happening in Zaporozhian Cossacks), but it is equally bad to replace a sourced contribution with another sourced contribution, only supporting a different POV (as it was happening in Ukrainian language). When multiple POVs exist, efforts must be made to combine them in a way that would not give undue prominence to any of them. Please try seeing beyond the fact that you and the other party dislike each other&mdash;you are, after all, adults. If you are truly interested in Wikipedia's success, you should know better than trying to outshout and outrevert each other.

Please continue working towards reaching a consensus on the talk pages of these two articles and try to avoid editing the actual articles until such a consensus is reached. If the revert wars continue, the articles will be protected, which, as both sides know, will prevent uninvolved editors from making valuable contributions unrelated to your conflict. Always try to find at least some sources for the statements you include&mdash;remember, having a source, even inferior, always beats having no sources at all (don't forget&mdash; the threshold for inclusion in Wikipedia is verifiability, not truth!). When multiple contradicting sources exist, combine them in such a way as to get as close to NPOV coverage as possible. The topics are clearly controversial, so neither of you can expect that only your view is the only one correct (there may not even be a "correct" view for that matter!). Thank you for your attention.—Ëzhiki (Igels Hérissonovich Ïzhakoff-Amursky) • (yo?); 16:23, 14 February 2008 (UTC)
 * What was the point of asking me to intervene if you do not intend to listen? Sigh...  I protected both articles.  Work it out.—Ëzhiki (Igels Hérissonovich Ïzhakoff-Amursky) • (yo?); 17:08, 14 February 2008 (UTC)
