Here you left an edit summary stating "German refers to the language, not the country". I think you meant, "Austrian refers to the nationality, not the language" :) cheers. --Otheus 22:34, 11 April 2007 (UTC)
 * For archive.

A note of advice, if you think that someone has violated the "personal attacks" policy, and you make a complaint to that editor's talkpage, please include a diff of the comment. This will make it easier for admins to review the behavior. Thanks, Elonka 04:34, 8 April 2008 (UTC)
 * Thanks, that's good advice. lomis (talk) 15:19, 8 April 2008 (UTC)

Rab concentration camp
Hi Lomis. I just wanted to thank you for your message on my talk page. Much appreciated. Regards, AlasdairGreen27 (talk) 15:44, 10 April 2008 (UTC)
 * (replying to message from my talkpage) Gennarous has been blocked for 24 hours for edit-warring and incivility. However, I would like to point out that he does have a valid point, in that you were reverting him without engaging at talk.  In the future, whenever you make a controversial change to an article,  it is a good idea to immediately post something at the talkpage to explain your change.  And when possible, try participating at talk before your change.  Sometimes all it takes is a valid and civil concern expressed at talk, for an editor such as Gennarous to voluntarily adapt their own edits.  Which is far preferable to engaging in a "tug of war" with the article.


 * I have been following Gennarous's contributions for several days, and though I'll freely admit that I am not familiar with the sources or content, it does seem that he's trying to be a better Wikipedian, and that he has been making Herculean efforts to try and be more civil. He's obviously very passionate about what he believes, but I don't think he's acting in bad faith. Do you really feel that every single one of his changes is inappropriate?  Are there not any of his ideas that could be incorporated, towards finding some kind of compromise? --Elonka 22:28, 10 April 2008 (UTC)

Edit War
You currently appear to be engaged in an edit war. Note that the three-revert rule prohibits making more than three reversions on a single page within a 24 hour period. Additionally, users who perform a large number of reversions in content disputes may be blocked for edit warring, even if they do not technically violate the three-revert rule. If you continue, you may be blocked from editing. Please do not repeatedly revert edits, but use the talk page to work towards wording and content that gains a consensus among editors. If necessary, pursue dispute resolution. Subwayatrain (talk) 06:43, 24 September 2008 (UTC)
 * I got your message and I understand where you are coming from, and what you are trying to achieve. I sent the other editor the same notice. Like you have mentioned, his edits do appear to be pretty one sided. Recently, I have even had to flag one of his edits for copyright violation, because it was an outright cut and paste from another website. I'm not an Admin, and I have no intention of reporting any of this. This was simply to get both your (But mostly Gg spoker's) attention in order to hopefully work something out. (Plus, sometimes I tend to go a little overboard with templates, and I appologize.) I know this article is about a rather polarizing subject, and like you, I would like a balanced article. You obviously know much more about the subject matter than I, but if you need any assistance, let me know. Happy Editing! Subwayatrain (talk) 04:13, 25 September 2008 (UTC)

Speedy deletion nomination of Initiative of Critical Students


A tag has been placed on Initiative of Critical Students requesting that it be speedily deleted from Wikipedia. This has been done under section A7 of the criteria for speedy deletion, because the article appears to be about a club, but it does not credibly indicate how or why the subject is important or significant: that is, why an article about that subject should be included in an encyclopedia. Under the criteria for speedy deletion, such articles may be deleted at any time. Please read more about what is generally accepted as notable.

If you think this page should not be deleted for this reason, you may contest the nomination by visiting the page and clicking the button labelled "Contest this speedy deletion". This will give you the opportunity to explain why you believe the page should not be deleted. However, be aware that once a page is tagged for speedy deletion, it may be removed without delay. Please do not remove the speedy deletion tag from the page yourself, but do not hesitate to add information in line with Wikipedia's policies and guidelines.
