Võtsin eesti vikis Franciscuse artiklis viite Habemusele maha - põhjus selles, et 1) see, et paavst sai võimule 13. märtsil, pole vaieldav ja 2) Habemus ei erine vormiliselt tavapärasest, välja arvatud nimi ja isik, mis ongi loogiliselt iga paavsti puhul erinev.

Help with Russian to English translation: 2014–15 Russian military intervention in Ukraine ?
Hello Pietade.

I see that you contribute to Wikipedia in both Russian and English, including a number of edits related to the recent Russian military intervention in Ukraine. According to your own information, you do so with a professional knowledge of those two languages.

Among the External links on the page 2014–15 Russian military intervention in Ukraine there are two links to openrussia.org, for which an editor has inserted an English translation of the original Russian title. Those two translations from Russian to English are clearly not very accurate. If you could improve these translations, then that would improve the article. Best regards.

Splitting Mariupol standoff
I made my arguments at the talk page and am in support of the split. Like I said at the talk page, the title is missleading because the standoff is not at Mariupol but at Shyrokyne. Do you want to split it or should I? EkoGraf (talk) 13:58, 29 April 2015 (UTC) as for Shyrokyne — it is (anyway, what's left of) located about 10 km from Mariupol, forms a defence line of Mariupol and can thus be (to a cerain extent, of course) considered as (vital) part of the city. —Pietadè (talk) 17:15, 29 April 2015 (UTC)
 * Like I said: hitting tensely populated civilian areas with multiple rocket launchers deserves a separate article (even a bus had an article);

Split
Hi Pietade. I was close watching this guy edits. As you can see, he is splitting the three-month timelines into monthly reports, apparently on the grounds of WP:READABILITY. After a brief analysis, I concluded that his idea is actually not to bad, but before further splitting, I want to consult you about the issue. Let me know if you agree or not. Thank you and Best Regards.--Darius (talk) 23:35, 21 December 2016 (UTC)

— he/she has not started the separate articles as an article should begin (e.g., first instance of unfamiliar "things" to be linked); — and much more, reasons — it is much easier (and less time-consuming) to use the format (3-m period); have you looked, e.g., on the newly created article on Feb 2016, seems kind of abracadabra to me, no introduction, etc. — Besides that, e.g., vedi Timeline of the war in Donbass (April–June 2014), and, click on "What links here"...; 15 April is written there as: 15 April, meaning, this part of this article can be linked to...Pietadè (talk) 13:42, 22 December 2016 (UTC)
 * Hi, As for splitting: against, and quite strongly:
 * — months ago there was a similar question in etwi (do notice, before acting it is/would be kind to discuss the question), and, the articles remained as they are;
 * — etwi and enwi articles, except for the 1st 3 months of 2016, are pretty synchronic; after splitting in enwi, the same has to be done in etwi too;
 * — these 3-month periods may contain errors (like Stari → Staryi), that would be easier to address before splitting,
 * The delayed data from "the third party" (OSCE, I mean) is added on very rare occasions. Like on 18 Dec the OSCE SMM counted about 1,900 explosions "produced" by Grads, neither side reported Grads, if I'm not mistaken...—Pietadè (talk) 10:57, 22 December 2016 (UTC)


 * Well mate, actually my support to User Kristijh was conditional on your opinion, given that you are the main contributor to the timelines. Therefore my next move is to revert the split, providing a link to this thread in the edit summary. In other issues, my ignorance of Slavic languages led me to transliterate Старый into "Stari" after my memories of the Bosnian War (remember the destruction of the Stari Most in Mostar). As for OSCE reports, I consider them an unreliable source, at least regarding events on the ground.--Darius (talk) 23:38, 22 December 2016 (UTC)
 * Glad we agreed! BR!—Toivo (talk) 07:27, 23 December 2016 (UTC)

Assassination in Mariupol
Hi Pietade. Just after this edit I came across your hidden message regarding Col. Kharaberiush assassination in Mariupol. He was actually killed on 31 March, see here and here. I became aware of the incident as soon as the news was released, so I was about to add it to the January-March timeline since yesterday. Sabotage and assassinations behind the lines (Motorola, Givi, explosions of ammo depots) are definitely part of this war. Best Regards.--Darius (talk) 03:07, 2 April 2017 (UTC)

Unable to fix some technical problems
Hi Pietadé, unfortunately, our page is experiencing problems; newer citations don't display properly, and the navbox (Ukrainian crisis) only shows in its bare form, I guess we will need the assistance of an expert in this matter...Do you know the right guy? Hope we can fix all this mess as soon as possible, I waste two hours trying, to no avail.

One month timelines
Hi mate, and Happy New Year, may Peace finally prevail and our work come to a close! I think Onetwothreeip proposal about one-month timelines, even with the problems you have described on his talk page could be the best way to avoid further questionings like the ones we have suffered in the past (alleged WP:NEWS, unreliable sources and fundamentally pages' size). The broken syntax of month's end citations or the overpopulation of categories are items we can deal with. Let me know your opinion, Cheers!.--Darius (talk) 19:30, 1 January 2019 (UTC) Currently there are 20 quarters, that is 58 months; and not only the connection between months, but, You see, in a 4-quarter version one has to link e.g., LPR 4 times, at least, in a 12-month version this makes at least 12×LPRs, and all the other linkable articles. Besides that, at least some of these 4-quarter versions are linked to other Wikipedias 4-quarter “sisters” (see the table in the Estonian version of the War in Donbass on Estonian page, clicking on entries opens an Estonian version, where You can see language links):
 * Hi mate, and Happy New Year to You too!

Let us think a little more; by the way, has split the articles, but hasn't bothered to make new ones Wikiarticles (not only the ref links in the end/beginning), but an article has to have "inlinks" (DPR, Pisky, mortars, BMPs, etc., etc.) too, at least so I have heard ;--)—Pietadè (talk) 20:27, 1 January 2019 (UTC) and your statement: "Given that DagosNavy and Pigsonthewing agree with me" — have not had the opportunity to read that; thus calling "the behaviour of yours disruptive, at least".—Pietadè (talk) 21:40, 1 January 2019 (UTC)
 * What are you talking about? I've never heard of "DPR, Pisky, mortars, BMPs". When I split the articles, the references were all transferred into the new articles, as well as the external links, categories and templates. What does it even mean that when I split the articles I didn't make new ones "Wikiarticles"? Splitting articles creates new articles. Onetwothreeip (talk) 20:33, 1 January 2019 (UTC)
 * In a 3-month article you can link DPR, Pisky, or what ever only in the beginning or in the beginning and in the end (articles in Wikis have inside links, and if you make 3 from 1 you have to link the articles that were otherwise linked in a 3-month version once); or, there is an anchored link to ATO ("anti-terror operation"), that is pretty often linked from other articles... (in this case you have to change all the links to correct ones), etc.—Pietadè (talk) 20:53, 1 January 2019 (UTC)
 * In other words, say you have one artist with 100 works, if you make a list of these works, you'll link the artist, the school he/she attended, teacher(s), etc., only once, if you'll make one article per every work, you'll have to make 100 links.—Pietadè (talk) 21:08, 1 January 2019 (UTC)
 * We can have those links in the new articles too, it's no problem. Onetwothreeip (talk) 21:21, 1 January 2019 (UTC)
 * Later on, when pro-Russian media started counting and publishing every shell, the ref links in 3-months articles were customised, to match the ref limit per article; these should be made back too, links to 3-months' timelines in other language Wikis, checking typos (e.g., Ukrainian и written incorrectly)... as for me, I do not possess that much free time;

Besides that, every article (and Talk page) has history, deleting history is simply deleting (though, sometimes "handy" — made a infobox template for one animal, still in use in 100+ articles, thanks to illiterate "split" actions of someone, I'm not (formally) the creator of this infobox template, and no one has formal reason to bite me), and deleting it is.—Pietadè (talk) 22:34, 1 January 2019 (UTC)
 * I have not deleted anything, and I have certainly not deleted the histories. The edit summaries for the new articles make it very clear that they are split from a previous article, and you obviously are aware of that. It's not even possible for me to delete histories, that's something only an administrator can do. This is getting absurd, the consensus is for splitting these articles into months. Your reasons against them are completely incoherent, you're acting as if the new articles are much more flawed than the articles they were split from. We should move these discussions to the index page for the timelines at Timeline of war in Donbass. Onetwothreeip (talk) 23:00, 1 January 2019 (UTC)
 * Hi Onetwothreeip. Let me make clear that I would prefer to keep the original three-month format. Pietadè has made a great job here, correcting my transliteration mistakes from cirillic, posting the Ukrainian military reports or given us the right Ukrainian toponyms, so I will always support him. Pressure from some users, however, forced us to include the pro-Russian version of the conflict on the basis of WP:NPOV and counter-balance. This led to oversized pages, and detractors of the timeline charged once again with templates and requests for deletion. As I had already told Pietadè, my only reason not for supporting your position, but for refraining myself from reverting the one-month timelines is to avoid a new "offensive" by these "concerned users", whose only goal seems to be the outright deletion of this chronology.--Darius (talk) 23:40, 1 January 2019 (UTC)
 * That is a very strange circumstance. Have any of these timeline pages survived an Article for Deletion request? Onetwothreeip (talk) 10:28, 2 January 2019 (UTC)


 * Nothing strange at all, the request was proposed by a user questioning the oversizing of the three-month format and its contents (just on one of the pages), but te RfD was overwhelmingly rejected.--Darius (talk) 12:16, 2 January 2019 (UTC)
 * Do you remember which one? Onetwothreeip (talk) 21:05, 2 January 2019 (UTC)

You have accused me of vandalism by "deleting article histories", which you claim I call splitting. What are you talking about? Onetwothreeip (talk) 07:22, 3 January 2019 (UTC)
 * Sorry, extremely busy, to give you any extended answer. Short version: if you start an article, say “A”, and decide after some years to split it into A1, A2, A3, what do you think happens to the history?—Pietadè (talk) 07:28, 3 January 2019 (UTC)
 * The pre-split history is retained in the history of article A, even if article A becomes a redirect. I didn't delete either the article or the history, and the history wasn't deleted at all. Onetwothreeip (talk) 07:33, 3 January 2019 (UTC)

 * Hi Arcturus, I do usually copy the data from below the heading "Deaths within 28 days of positive test" (currently "Total // 49,770"), copy-paste (not to err), below "Deaths within 28 days of positive test by date of death" there is a table, with columns Daily/Cumulative/Data/About, and, cf. data in column "United Kingdom total" with wiki table (they may update data “posthumously”, don't know...); their table starts on 02-01-2020 total 1 death / 03-03-2020 = total 3 deaths / 05-03-2020 = total 6 deaths, etc.).&#32;— Pietadè (talk) 19:15, 10 November 2020 (UTC)

 * I see what you mean about the UK figures. However, I assume some of those daily figures, going back several days or even weeks, will be updated each day as the new "deaths reported" figures are published. We would then need to retrospectively update the figures in the template on a daily basis. This would be more accurate, but it's a bit of a maintenance overhead. Arcturus (talk) 11:46, 11 November 2020 (UTC)

Revert
Why do you need to revert an edit just to correct a typo? LSGH (talk) (contributions) 01:55, 22 December 2020 (UTC)

 * "Didn't have time to cite properly" and "numbers can change in hours" aren't legitimate excuses for making unsourced edits here. I also saw that the toll had changed, but knowing I did not have time presently to locate and add a citation and update all parts of the article that needed to be updated as a result, I did not edit.

Note regarding Male birth control pill
Hello, and thank you for your contributions to Wikipedia. A page you created or have recently made significant changes to, Male birth control pill, may not conform to some of Wikipedia's guidelines for pages, so it has been blanked and redirectedto Male contraceptive.

The page's history is preserved and it is possible to restore the article: If you believe that this page should remain included on Wikipedia or that this action was taken in error, then you may revert the edit that blanked and redirected the page.Your first article has more information about creating articles, and you may also want to read our introduction page to learn more about contributing.

Speedy deletion nomination of Strilecha


Hello, and welcome to Wikipedia. This is a notice to inform you that a tag has been placed on Strilecha requesting that it be speedily deleted from Wikipedia. This has been done under section A1 of the criteria for speedy deletion, because it is a very short article providing little or no context to the reader. Please see Wikipedia:Stub for our minimum information standards for short articles. Also please note that articles must be on notable subjects and should provide references to reliable sources that verify their content.

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 deleted 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. If the page is deleted, and you wish to retrieve the deleted material for future reference or improvement, then please contact the, or if you have already done so, you can place a request here.

Autopatrolled right granted
Hi Pietadè, I just wanted to let you know that I have added the autopatrolled user right to your account. This means that pages you create will automatically be marked as 'reviewed', and no longer appear in the new pages feed. Autopatrolled is assigned to prolific creators of articles, where those articles do not require further review, and may have been requested on your behalf by someone else. It doesn't affect how you edit; it is used only to manage the workload of new page patrollers.

Since the articles you create will no longer be systematically reviewed by other editors, it is important that you maintain the high standard you have achieved so far in all your future creations. Please also try to remember to add relevant WikiProject templates, stub tags, categories, and incoming links to them, if you aren't already in the habit; user scripts such as Rater and StubSorter can help with this. As you have already shown that you have a strong grasp of Wikipedia's core content policies, you might also consider volunteering to become a new page patroller yourself, helping to uphold the project's standards and encourage other good faith article writers.

Feel free to leave me a message if you have any questions. Happy editing! &oelig; &trade; 08:55, 12 October 2023 (UTC)

Hi Pietadè! 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. Thank you. Kj cheetham (talk) 11:28, 28 January 2024 (UTC)

 * The above cited source (euractiv.com) was news to me, etwiki article Aleksei Petrov contains nothing of this kind. &#160;☆☆☆— Pietadè<sup style="font-variant:small-caps;">Talk 18:32, 17 May 2024 (UTC)
 * The copyvios report was a word-for-word match of the content, which itself actually appears to be a copy of this Reuters article published two days earlier. It seems that et.wiki editors may have translated it word for word into Estonian, and that you translated it back, but the end result was a copyright violation. In particular, phrases like have not previously been reported are a bit of a red flag, as they make total sense for a journalistic article but do not belong in a Wikipedia article. signed,Rosguill talk 18:36, 17 May 2024 (UTC)
 * I did create the etwi article on 10 August 2023, Reuters' article was mentioned as “The European Union's decision of 16 December 2022 imposed sanctions on Petrov.”[1] &#160;☆☆☆— Pietadè<sup style="font-variant:small-caps;">Talk 19:06, 17 May 2024 (UTC)

Ukraine place articles general fixes
Hello, thank you for your work on creating many articles on populated places in Ukraine. However, in the hope of standardizing them and adhering to the manual of style, it would be great if you could do the following things when creating these and other articles so I or others do not have to: Flemmish Nietzsche (talk) 21:01, 6 July 2024 (UTC) Although in many cases I have taken existing articles as a model; in some cases I have transferred literally sentences from Ukrainian ukwiki articles (was temporarily occupied by Russian forces). &#160;☆☆☆— Pietadè<sup style="font-variant:small-caps;">Talk 06:02, 7 July 2024 (UTC)
 * Do not make a hatnote to a disambig page if the article has any place disambiguators; as in, if an article is "foo, bar raion, foobar oblast" you do not need to place a hatnote at the top of the page; this only would be done (in this case) if there was a disambiguation page such as "foo (disambiguation)" and the article was "foo".
 * Make a talk page and add the article to Wikiprojects with the banner, usually with the Ukraine and Cities Wikiprojects.
 * You do not need to link to the definitions of "hromada" and "raion", etc. in the lead; they are already linked in the infobox and linking them in prose just adds clutter; the same goes with alternative names for these divisions; for the same reasons please do not link "selo" in parentheses or "district" with a link to the raion article. By extension, when mentioning the hromada, it is better to say "village foo is in bar hromada" than to say it is in "one of the hromadas of Ukraine"; again just clutter; imagine if on the Los Angeles article, we said "is in California, one of the states of the United States"
 * If a village is currently or was at some point occupied by Russia, please distinguish between the two in that saying "the village was temporarily occupied by Russian forces at x date" is unclear as to if the "temporary" means it is still occupied. This has been the case for at least one of your articles, so if a village is currently occupied it would be great if you could either say "and is currently under occupation" or simply remove the "temporary", and if it is no longer under occupation say so. Thank you.
 * Noted.
 * Also, you keep citing MOS:INFOBOXFLAG in some of your edit summaries when removing the flags next to Ukraine and the oblast in infoboxes, however INFOBOXFLAG says that "Human geographic articles – for example, settlements and administrative subdivisions – may have flags of the country and first-level administrative subdivision in infoboxes", so I don't see the problem with having them, or at least there's no reason to go and remove them just to do so.
