Battle of Dobro Pole
Hi, just noticed this article. It is certainly an article worth having on the encyclopedia, but just an infobox is not an article. Would you mind going back, adding in some text, and citing your sources? Thanks. Message me if I can be of any help. J Milburn 19:53, 20 January 2007 (UTC)
 * I messaged so quick because I am a new page patroller- I check new pages to weed out vandalism. Happy editing! J Milburn 20:24, 20 January 2007 (UTC)


 * I was thinkinig of writing an article on this disastrous battle, but I see that you have done this VERY WELL. I am glad that you have very good attitude towards the Bulgarians, which many westerners lack and which Bulgaria certainly deserves. If you heed any help related with Bulgarian history and geography I would gladly help. Keep going like this : ) : ) : ) —The preceding unsigned comment was added by Gligan (talk • contribs) 13:01, 24 January 2007 (UTC).

Yes, there are details which could be added, but unfortunately I am very busy now and I will edit the article later. Now the second term in the unversity has begun and unlike the first one, presence at lectures and exercises is compulsory (very unpleasant); you see how late I have noticed your message... : ) --Gligan 11:38, 23 February 2007 (UTC)

MS map
Great map you added for Horn Lake, MS. Is that possible to get such maps for other communities? There are so many without maps. It would be also good to have a state "dot-on" map showing the whole state, with a red dot, but the people formerly making those only did a few states, then gave up, and they didn't explain how to do it.

I added a couple of Long Island maps. How do you know the maps are US govt./PD? Badagnani 20:42, 21 January 2007 (UTC)

Hmm, maybe from some kind of MapQuest type of source, then. Hard to tell. But we do need maps in our articles, for our encyclopedia to not be seen as a half-assed information source. I've sent messages to the people who used to do the red dot-on maps for help, and they just never write back. Badagnani 21:51, 21 January 2007 (UTC)

WikiProject Latin
I am not sure whether you are familiar with a WikiProject or not (a description can be found here) but I'm planning on starting one for the Latin language. This is mainly because Latin is and has been such an important language in the history of western civilization but the article is only rated a 'C'. If you support my proposal then please sign your name on the proposal page here. 95jb14 (talk) 15:15, 14 August 2009 (UTC)

Ismail-Bei moved to draftspace
An article you recently created, Ismail-Bei, does not have enough sources and citations as written to remain published. It needs more citations from reliable, independent sources. (?) Information that can't be referenced should be removed (verifiability is of central importance on Wikipedia). I've moved your draft to draftspace (with a prefix of " " before the article title) where you can incubate the article with minimal disruption. When you feel the article meets Wikipedia's general notability guideline and thus is ready for mainspace, please click on the "Submit your draft for review!" button at the top of the page.
