Hoxhaism
As a note, you removed the mention on Hoxha's page that he was notable enough for a branch of Marxism-Leninism to be named after him. However, both the Wikipedia page for Communism (as of this writing and for a few months now) plus many Maoists still debate with Hoxhaists (they use that word) and quite a few parties considered themselves Hoxhaists. (Most notably the Communist Party of Brazil and Communist Party of Canada (Marxist-Leninist) --Mrdie (talk) 21:22, 24 July 2008 (UTC)
 * Maoists consider Hoxha to be a revisionist and denounces Hoxhaism as revisionist.I know it did exist a network of Communist parties that uphold the line of Enver Hoxha and the Albanian Party of Labour the but you need fact,sources to back a claim.This page might help and maybe watch this video .Thank you Mrdie for your work!--Taulant23 (talk) 17:26, 25 July 2008 (UTC)

Albania history section

 * I agree about the level and the mess.I propose review of all history section which I understand that is somehow mediocre, misinforming and poor in information. Albanian history is very rich I propose the following :


 * archeological section to come first showing evidence of ciclopic ruins etc.


 * we could define that Albanians originate from Illyrian of the south in fact thraco-illirian substrate and so it is Albanian language


 * we could mention that for centuries Albanian were consider as ancestors of Epirotes and Macedonians in fact the Illyrians of the south


 * in fact were alliances and war between south Illyrians tribes with different but spread culture up to this point the Greek colonies are nothing but a spread of Hellenic culture of the area


 * adding roman time section


 * adding Byzantine time section


 * ottoman period section stating reasons why in 17century a part of Albanian Christians converted in Muslim

I would like to add the folloing references :


 * Reference:Albanian is identified as the descendent of Illyrian, but Hamp (1994a) argues that the evidence is too meager and contradictory for us to know whether the term Illyrian even referred to a single language. Thracian has also been adduced as a possible ancestor of Albanian (Fine 1983, 10? 11). Hamp (1982; 1994b) argues that Albanian is descended from a language that was in intense contact with Latin, as was the language that produced Romanian (traditionally referred to as Dacian), but unlike the ancestor of Romanian, the ancestor of Albanian escaped Romanization.

 * Reference“The fate of Albanian people and territories during Roman rule was that, they lived as free people but in social hierarchy they had a place between Romans civil right and slaves who had not right at all , the first mention with the name Albanoi or Arber  was by  Ptolemy of Alexandri 2nd c. A.D   one of the free Illyrian tribes. The Illyrian military began to play important role in Roman life ,seven of Roman Emperors were Illyrians and they ruled in succession, the Illyrian  Emperor Dioclean administrative reorganization Albanian territory in three provinces : Praevalitana, with Shkodra (Shkodër) as its administrative centre, Epirus Nova, Dyrrachium as its capital, and Epirus Vetus, with its central city at Nikopois. “  Source : Antonina Zhelyazkova Albanians identities ..

 * Reference: The history of modern Albanian identity, like that of other modern Balkan identities, begins during the end of the Ottoman Empire. At this time, the Ottoman system of classification was based on millet, which can be glossed religiously defined national community. Greek Orthodox Albanians were therefore classified as Greeks and Muslim Albanians as Turks. The Orthodox were subject to Hellenization, while the Muslims were denied linguistic rights granted to Christians. Thus, for example, in 1878 there were 80 Turkish schools, 163 Greek schools, and no Albanian schools in the sandjaks of Berat, Gjirokastër, and Vlorë (Jelavich 1983, 85). Ammon, Ulrich(Editor).

 * The army of Alexander the great were Thracians, Illryrians and the hoplites of Corinthian Legue These units were far superior to any they encountered, and, supplemented by a large reserve of secondary troops (Thracians, Illyrians, and the hoplites of the Corinthian League), they gave Alexander an overwhelming military advantage.

 * Albania, Christianity in.  Christianity probably reached Albania early, but with the fall of the W. Empire in the 5th and 6th cents. its influence was largely destroyed. In the Dark Ages the Albanians were partly conquered by Slavs. In the 9th cent. some were incorporated into the Bulgarian kingdom, adhering to E. Orthodoxy, and in the 11th cent. they came under Serbian sway. At the time of the schism between the E. and W. Churches, some transferred their allegiance from Constantinople to Rome. After the Turks finally subjugated Albania in 1521, there was much apostasy. In 1913 Albania became independent and the Orthodox Church became autocephalous in 1922. Under Communist rule after 1945 all places of worship were closed, but the outward practice of religion was allowed again in 1991.How to cite this entry:

 * By the way, I am quite tired of your unhelpful tribalistic reactions such as this . Such behavior does not belong in Wikipedia.  I'm trying to HELP here.  Can't you see what a mess your country's history section is?  Compare it with those of other countries, to see what I mean.  You really should listen to your compatriot User:Balkanian`s word.  He is a good contributor and you could learn a LOT from him, believe me.  Now, if you think I should be banned from editing Albania, why don't you go to WP:ANI and do something about it, and see what reaction you will get?  However, if you keep reinstating crap from unitedalbania.com or illyrians.com and call my edits vandalism one more time, it is I who will report you, and you probably won't like the result.  Now wouldn't that suck?  So please adopt a cooler and more helpful attitude and dispense with the edit-warring.  --Tsourkpk (talk) 16:19, 22 November 2008 (UTC)

 * Given your past history of copyright violations, I see little reason to believe you. And why did you undo the rest of my edits?  You also had the nerve to call my edits vandalism, and to tag your revert as "minor, hoping i wouldn;t see it.  In light of this kind of hostile attitude and your edit-warring behavior, I have no choice but refer this to the administrators.  --Athenean (talk) 01:17, 3 May 2009 (UTC)

 * Taulant, I changed my old user name because I felt it gave away too much personal information. You might not be aware of this, but I'm telling you now.  So using my old username on Talk:Illyrians is making me uncomfortable.  I will therefore once again ask that you retract it.  After what I've told you here, insisting on mentioning my old user name borders on WP:OUTING.  And I don't appreciate being called "The Athenian Politician".  You might find that funny, but I don't.  --Athenean (talk) 20:58, 4 June 2009 (UTC)

 * Taulant, I am politely asking you for the second time to remove my old username from Talk:Illyrians. I changed it for a good reason, and your adding it there is making me uncomfortable.  Please also note that your comment is completely unnecessary and can be considered a form of personal attack.  So I will once again ask that you retract it.  I will not ask you a third time.  --Athenean (talk) 21:11, 4 June 2009 (UTC)

 * I really don't care dude but honestly when did I get into edit war?

The change is right and not POV.The only Albanian link with Illyrians the Greek users put it as Albanian Nationalism.That's vandalism right there.I know it's not your fault,greeks cry to you every time.--Taulant23 (talk) 21:47, 10 June 2009 (UTC)


 * Okay, you're no longer blocked. But seriously, the stuff you don't like is nowhere close to vandalism. Take a look at WP:Vandalism. If you accuse others of vandalism merely because you disagree with them, it's going to be considered a personal attack and you're just going to get blocked again.


 * I see nothing wrong with the nationalism paragraph. It hardly singles out Albania; more time is spent on Croatia. Personally, I think a comment about a possible Albanian connection belongs in the lede, but this is something you need to bring up on the talk page. Craft a version that you like, and see what others think. The objections have not been (just?) from people with an anti-Albanian bias, but also good editors who have earned a lot of respect. I don't know much about the subject, but since everyone in the region is probably descended from the Illyrians to some extent, the only evidence of a "direct" connection would be linguistic, genetic, or perhaps cultural/religious. AFAIK none of those give clear answers; the linguistic connection that was once popular is no longer maintained by linguists, due to lack of data. Who knows; maybe the Albanians are Thracian rather than Illyrian, or descended from one of the "Illyrian" groups other than Illyrian proper. I have no idea, and it seems neither does anyone else.


 * But anyway, blanking paragraphs because you don't like them is not the way to go. kwami (talk) 23:23, 10 June 2009 (UTC)

Deltari Ilir
I belive that Deltari Ilir ose Qeni i Sharrit is in fact the historicaly celebrated Albanian Dog and would like to help in creating the article under the title Albanian Shepherd Dog. I am truly sad to see that the FCI did not acknowledge the dog's Albanian origin. Maybe the article I am proposing will help in that direction. Please answer on your talk page. Thanks. -- Imbris (talk) 02:44, 18 May 2009 (UTC)


 * Hello Taulant23, did you consider the sources (Albanian Dog) for this article. Also it would be great if you as a native Albanian speaker could merge these sources and citations into the Deltari Ilir. Thanks for answering. Please answer here, at your talk page. :) -- Imbris (talk) 21:58, 3 June 2009 (UTC)

I think we put the Albanian dog as been a part of Šarplaninac. I might be wrong.--Taulant23 (talk) 20:39, 4 June 2009 (UTC)


 * This could only lead to massive edit-war with editors from Macedonia, Serbia, and also Yugonostalgic editors. I think that we have plenty of material for an article about the Albanian Shepherd Dog, then we can add a sentence or two to Qeni i Sharrit (Šarplaninac) and also to Molosser.
 * I also belive that the info could become very interesting to the Albanian Cynological Association (info) for future reference and possible action.
 * Imbris (talk) 21:08, 4 June 2009 (UTC)


 * If you are interested we can go and create the article right now, but it would be better if there existed an article on the 'Wikipedia in the Albanian language'. -- Imbris (talk) 21:35, 4 June 2009 (UTC)


 * It will create problems in here with other Slavic users if you used Deltari the Illyrian dog since we are using Šarplaninac. .Honestly I need to do my research about the Albanian dog.I know there are other breeds in Albania beside Deltari which are even bigger.

Thank you for this interesting matter.--Taulant23 (talk) 21:47, 4 June 2009 (UTC)


 * Well, I am a Slavic user, and do not have any problems with the fact that the Deltari Ilir is in fact an Albanian breed of dog. This breed currently doesn't have its country of origins, it was mistakenly listed as Yugoslav because Albania did not have its representatives in the Fédération Cynologique Internationale. I am sure if Kosovo and Albania would ask for membership in the F.C.I. that the Deltari Ilir would be recognized under the name of the Albanian Shepherd Dog.
 * I am sure that there are more Albanian breeds of dog (the Albanian Wolfdog), but this one has the best chances to be recognized as such by the F.C.I., since Sharr today has nothing to do with Yugoslavia, it could be recognized as a joint Albanian, Kosova and Macedonian breed of dog. This would be the winning combination for the F.C.I.
 * This web-site has plenty of content.
 * I will wait for you to collect more sources and question around for more information.

 * THE ALBANIAN DOG

can be traced to a very remote period of history. Some of the old authors speak of it as the dog which in the times of ancient mythology Diana presented to Procris. Pliny describes in enthusiastic terms the combat of one of them with a lion, and afterwards with an elephant. A dog very much resembling the ancient stories is yet found in Albania, and most of the districts of Greece. He is almost as large as a mastiff, with long and silky hair, the legs being shorter and stronger than those of the greyhound. He is gentle and tractable with those whom he knows, and when there is no point of duty at stake; but no bribe can seduce him from his post when any trust is committed to him.

[This dog, it is very probable, was highly impregnated with molossian blood, and like that animal, was trained both for war and the chase. It is rather doubtful, whether the dogs presented to Alexander the Great by the king of Albania, were those of his own country or some that he had obtained from other parts. We are inclined to believe that they were imported dogs, for Pliny distinctly states, that these two were all that the generous monarch possessed, and if destroyed could not be replaced. From this circumstance it is natural to suppose, that, if these dogs had been native Albanians, the king would have been able to supply any reasonable quantity of them.--Taulant23 (talk) 06:37, 14 June 2009 (UTC)

Origin of Albanians
I propose a change in the structure of the article based on the different fields of the studies on this matter. Archeology, Linguistic, Genetics or Anthropology, Literature and Cultural fields. Right now there is a vague description and not all points of view has been taken into consideration. What do you think? Aigest (talk) 14:45, 6 March 2009 (UTC)

I am out of Wikipedia.My edit's are small now,it's a waste of time to write the old and glorious history of Albania in a page where is edited by kids.Completely waste of time.--Taulant23 (talk) 04:41, 14 March 2009 (UTC)


 * It seems it's waste of time write about „glorious“ and „old“ history of Albania, it's waste of time to bring some arguments and historical facts, right? If you are afraid of disscusing about genetical origin of Albanians, I think I know the reason. --Zik2 (talk) 21:55, 15 March 2009 (UTC)

no body is talking about genetical origin of Albanians.But if you want,first go study the basics of Genetics,genomes,dominant,recessive, allele frequency,modifier mutations, the XY and XX,lethal mutations, and maybe Shine Delgarno Sequence,primers,introns,and go ahead perform a PCR and after talk to me about "genetical" origin of Albanians.--Taulant23 (talk) 02:46, 17 March 2009 (UTC)

Eshte shume e lidhur dhe me Maliqin, i cili del i lidhur me Sisklon dhe Diminin. Pra popullsia shqiptare eshte gjeneruar ne ate zone le te themi rreth Maliqit:)dhe pastaj ka levizur pergjate bregdetit dhe ne itali. Keto shkojne me teorine qe Iliret jane pergjithesisht popullsi autokton vendase sepse nuk verehen shkeputje ne kronologjine arkeologjike, perkundrazi te njejtat forma jane permiresuar dalengadale. Edhe nje gje tjeter, Iliret e jugut ishin shume me te avancuar (kontakti me Greket mbase) se iliret e veriut (disa quajne ilire vetem iliret e jugut:) kjo eshte nje faktor qe ndikon me vone ne mosromanizimin e Ilireve te jugut(ata te veriut u romanizuan ne bregdet kurse brendesia u sllavizua me vone). Plus qe ka te beje dhe fakti qe nuk pati kolonizim te thelle te trojeve ilire pasi nuk kishte fusha:) dhe nuk ishte kufi i perandorise (ashtu sic i ndodhi dakeve) pra ndikimi romak ishte vetem ne qytete dhe G.B. Pellegrini (linguist i shquar Italian) ve ne dukje faktin qe ne fshatrat shqiptare nuk gjejme mbishkrime romake apo greke, qe tregon qe influenca shtrihej vetem mbi qytetet ndersa fshatrat sidomos ata ne male (shqiperia 80% male:)) kishin nje popullsi ilire e cila vetem kur zbriste ne qytet (per te shitur bageti e per te blere kripe them une:)) mundohej te fliste pak latinisht. Prandaj fjalet qe kane te bejme me qytetin dhe aktivitet e tij jane me origjine Latine. Me vone kur ndikimi romak ra dhe bizanti kishte hallin e dyndjeve, u rigjallerua jeta ne male dhe atehere filloi formimi i etnosit arber. Aman jepini pak forme te mire atij artikullit ti me BW, pastaj e shikoj dhe une. Aigest (talk) 07:59, 15 June 2009 (UTC)
