You're welcome... Anyway, I'm sorry for edit conflict: It's because I've marked it as patrolled the article, founding it in "yellow" between the new pages. When I mark a new page as patrolled I have the responsibility to check it. Good work and regards. --Dэя-Бøяg 21:02, 19 January 2012 (UTC)

Help needed with formatting and layout
I found the picture of the ministry's main building on the Commons, but somehow was unable to insert it into the infobox. Would somebody fix this? Thank you, Ukrained (talk) 23:41, 27 January 2012 (UTC)
 * Done with this edit. -- John of Reading (talk) 09:09, 28 January 2012 (UTC)
 * Thank you. I wonder my attempts to insert similar text failed. Ukrained (talk) 22:22, 29 January 2012 (UTC)

Disambiguation link notification
Hi. When you recently edited Elektrichka, you added a link pointing to the disambiguation page Schedule (check to confirm | fix with Dab solver). Such links are almost always unintended, since a disambiguation page is merely a list of "Did you mean..." article titles. Read the FAQ* Join us at the DPL WikiProject.

Look at the other guy
I am doing nothing wrong. I am just reverting a vandal's work. He is swearing at me and I haven't back. You should be telling me this and banning him. --TheShadowCrow (talk) 21:45, 21 February 2012 (UTC)

TheShadowCrow is a COMPLETE LIAR and a hypocrite. He is vandalizing pages I helped create. I am reverting HIS vandalism.31.111.111.91 (talk) 21:48, 21 February 2012 (UTC)
 * Oh, that's better. LIAR and a hypocrite is much milder. Minutes ago you've called him a fuckin clown. Anyway, your behavior is discrediting anonymous editing as such:( Keep on, if you want Jimbo to prohibit unlogged editing... Ukrained (talk) 22:02, 21 February 2012 (UTC)

I appreciate your concern. But don't worry about me, I'm not the one who's sworn at Admins :P

He has been banned dozens of times (no exaggeration at all). I haven't been banned once. But thanks for your concern. I'm done responding to him. --TheShadowCrow (talk) 22:14, 21 February 2012 (UTC)
 * I'm concerned about the Wikipedia mostly. As for you, your ever-continuing bullying may lead you to permaban very quickly. Ukrained (talk) 22:24, 21 February 2012 (UTC)

World Factoring Yearbook
I'm leaving this message as you're listed as a current participant of WikiProject Business. I was informed yesterday that the current World Factoring Yearbook (circa £150) is now free for download as an ebook. It's a matter of filling out this form. I'm not sure if you'll find this useful as a reliable source, but I thought I should let you know that it's freely available online. I apologise in advance if this doesn't interest you!

Request for help concerning energy...
Hi,

I noticed you listed yourself as a participant of the Energy WikiProject.

There are 2 new outlines in this area that attempt to consolidate Wikipedia's coverage of their respective subjects, gathering and organizing the articles about them into one place and including descriptions for convenience. The purposes of these outlines are to make it easier for readers to survey or review a whole subject, and to choose from Wikipedia's many articles about it.

The new energy outlines are:


 * Outline of solar energy
 * Outline of wind energy

Please take a look at them, and....


 * if you spot missing topics, add them in.


 * if you can, improve the descriptions.


 * add missing descriptions.


 * show parent-offspring relationships (with indents).


 * fix errors.

For more information about the format and functions of outlines, see Outlines.

Building outlines of existing material (such as Wikipedia) is called "reverse outlining". Reverse outlines are useful as a revision tool, for identifying gaps in coverage and for spotting poor structuring.

Revising a work with multiple articles (such as Wikipedia) is a little different than revising a paper. But the general principles are the same...

As you develop these outlines, you may notice things about the articles they organize. Like what topics are not adequately covered, better ways to structure and present the material, awkward titles, articles that need splitting, article sections lacking Main links, etc.

If you have any questions, please feel free to ask me on my talk page or at Wikipedia talk:WikiProject Outlines.

Thank you. Sincerely, The Transhumanist 00:58, 2 June 2012 (UTC) P.S.: see also Outline of energy

New name of mine)
Ladies and gentlemen, I've been "lucky" enough to loose both my Wikipedia password and the e-mail account that was supporting it. So let me re-introduce myself: I'm Bohdan, known as User:Ukrained since 2005 and now adopting new name User:Ukrained2012 to avoid lengthy procedures with my old account. Later I may consider official restoration of that account as well should my schedule allow. Happy edits, Ukrained2012 (talk) 15:43, 12 June 2012 (UTC)
 * P.S. I really hope that my old account wasn't hacked so it won't appear editing again. Fortunately, it hasn't so far). Ukrained2012 (talk) 15:48, 12 June 2012 (UTC)

Orphaned non-free image File:DTEKlogo press-service.JPG
 Thanks for uploading File:DTEKlogo press-service.JPG. The image description page currently specifies that the image is non-free and may only be used on Wikipedia under a claim of fair use. However, the image is currently not used in any articles on Wikipedia. If the image was previously in an article, please go to the article and see why it was removed. You may add it back if you think that that will be useful. However, please note that images for which a replacement could be created are not acceptable for use on Wikipedia (see our policy for non-free media).

Note that any non-free images not used in any articles will be deleted after seven days, as described in the criteria for speedy deletion. Thank you. Psychonaut (talk) 08:01, 24 August 2013 (UTC)
 * Seems like a duplicate. I won't object deletion. Ukrained2012 (talk) 10:52, 24 August 2013 (UTC)

Soviet Aviation Task Force Invitation
Hi! I noticed you are fluent in both Russian, Ukrainian, and English and was hoping you would join the Soviet Aviation Task Force and translate some of our missing articles into English and Ukrainian from Russian. Many of the articles on the list are MAJOR plane crashes that were not covered by Soviet media at the time they happened and were not made public until decades later, when such events were no longer considered interesting enough for regular news. And the since Soviet Airforces were subject to massive purges in the Stalin era, many notable aviators who broke multiple world records or earned their nation’s highest honor were repressed, their accomplishments forgotten, and their discoveries swept under the rug. Because archival sources are nearly always in Russian and these topics are history, not news, coverage of even the deadliest, most notable, and revolutionary events of aviation only have articles on the Russian Wiki. Our goal is to change that, using the wikidata pages for those Russian articles as a “base” to start off from and expand our own wikis, providing coverage on some of the most forgotten topics that managed to hide in the Russosphere for many years. While we have made a lot of progress on the English Wiki there is still a long way to go and many other wikis still lack coverage on the extent of Soviet air disasters. I really hope you can join our task force and assist in translating. We really need some native Russian speakers at our task force to help with translation, and you seem like a great candidate. Thank you, --PlanespotterA320 (talk) 19:38, 27 June 2018 (UTC)

If you are wondering where to start since the vastness of the backlog is a bit overwhelming, I recommend starting off with one of these:
 * en:1980 Plesetsk launch pad disaster (Just recently put into English and no article in Ukrainian)
 * en:1969 Yukhnov mid-air collision (120 fatalities, only in Russian and English)
 * en:1976 Anapa mid-air collision (70 fatalities, only in German and English. A little bit of post-USSR newscoverage due to recovery of parts of one of the planes involved)
 * en:Aeroflot Flight 2415, en:Aeroflot Flight 964, en:Aeroflot Flight 1912, and en: Aeroflot Flight 3932 – The four main crashes due to a major defect in the Tu-104, where the plane would seemingly randomly lose control and important instruments would go blank, dooming the plane. Instead of grounding the Tu-104 the Soviets kept the issue quiet and continued allowing them to fly, resulting in these tragedies.
