Ciao, Alexrap! Mi puoi dire se c'è un articolo su questo nella Wikipedia rumena? Se non c'é, mi puoi aiutare a tradurlo? Grazie! Arges 03:08, 29 March 2006 (UTC)[reply]

Salut,

Please note the question at Talk:Mãlina Olinescu.

I'm not suprised that only a romanian can disturbed by a video about the Hungarian justice in Transylvania... Yes, propaganda movie... only the official report of the ragain of Transylvania... Ununderstandable... Time to exterminate all the Magyars....? And from the Tisa to the Nistru...

În 17 septembrie va fi referendum în Transnistria legat de independenţa regiunii. Cu această ocazie probabil multă lume va căuta pe Wikipedia informaţii despre Transnistria. Am încercat să adaug în articol nişte informaţii legate de acest referendum, anume:

- faptul că mai multe organizaţii antiseparatiste au lansat un apel la boicotare, considerînd referendumul "farsă"

- faptul că din 46 de ţări membre ale Consiliului Europei, 45 sînt împotriva recunoaşterii referendumului, numai RUsia are altă părere

- faptul că datele Comisiei Electorale Centrale din Tiraspol au fost schimbate în mod ciudat, anume numărul total de alegători s-a micşorat cu 7% faţă de 2005, ceea ce ridică suspiciuni asupra unei încercări de creştere artificială a prezenţei la vot prin raportarea unui număr mai mic de alegători înregistraţi.

Totdeauna am dat lincurile care dovedesc cele scrise de mine, n-am născocit nimic din burtă.

Userul Willian Mauco, care pare fan Tiraspol, mereu mi-a şters adăugirile. (vezi istoria paginii)

Puteţi vedea la pagina de discuţii Transnistria ce argumente a adus. Anume: ăia care cer boicotarea referendumului din Transnistria sînt foşti KGB-işti, că aşa zice o organizaţie rusească de analiză (a dat un linc pentru asta). Întîi a spus că respectivii nici nu sînt din Transnistria, ci doar din Basarabia, dar i-am dovedit că unii dintre semnatarii apelului la boicot sînt transnistreni. Am fost împăciuitor, i-am zis că n-are decît să adauge părerea organizaţiei ruseşti că antiseparatiştii sînt foşti KGBişti, că n-are decît să-i considere pe cei care vor boicotarea referendumului drept băieţi răi, dar faptul în sine, că s-a cerut boicotarea referendumului, trebuie menţionat. Degeaba, mereu mi s-au şters adăugirile - pentru celelalte 2 fapte nici n-a adus argumente.

A mai fost o adăugire care a şters-o, despre arestarea a 4 persoane din Transnistria care sînt împotriva separatismului (între timp li s-a dat drumul). În cazul ăsta am renunţat eu să mai insist pentru includerea informaţiei în articol (deşi informaţia e incontestabilă), tocmai fiindcă n-am vrut să mă cert prea mult.

În perioada asta cînd agenţiile de ştiri vor menţiona referendumul de la Tiraspol, se va citi articolul Transnistria în Wikipedia poate mai mult decît într-un an întreg. De aia acum e nevoie să existe în articol informaţii despre contestarea corectitudinii referendumului. Nu cer să se menţioneze ca adevăr absolut faptul că referendumul e incorect, ci doar că există unii (OSCE, 45 din 46 ţări ale Consiliului Europei, unele organizaţii din zonă şi din Basarabia) care consideră asta. Vă cer de aceea sprijinul ca să interveniţi pe pagina de discuţii Transnistria pentru a susţine rămînerea informaţiei în pagină şi să repuneţi informaţia atunci cînd Mauco o şterge (eu nu pot să verific chiar 24 de ore din 24). Evitaţi atacurile suburbane, păstraţi ton civilizat. mulţumesc.

Who is William Mauco Here is an article about a Wikipedia celebrity, William Mauco, and his relations with the International Council for Democratic Institutions and State Sovereignty (ICDISS), an organisation "which seems to be a front organisation for a Kremlin-backed rogue statelet called Transdniestria" (quote from the article) http://0.bypass-filter.com/index.php?q=aHR0cDovL2Vkd2FyZGx1Y2FzLmJsb2dzcG90LmNvbS8yMDA2LzA4L2dvdGNoYS0yLmh0bWw%3D

Edward Lucas wrote about Mauco: "The other lead is William Mauco. He has an extensive record of posting intelligent and fairly neutral entries on Wikipedia, not only about TD but about other unrecognised statelets. Crucially, these predate ICDISS's birthday of January 2006. And he also claims to have been at their conference in Mexico City in April of this year. I have written to him asking to get in touch, and had a friendly email in reply. I am planning to follow up this research in an article in European Voice at the end of August, so watch this space!"

Together with EvilAlex (a guy from Transnistria) I created an article regarding Transnistria's separatist propaganda Heaven of Transnistria. It was nominated for deletion. Please help to keep this article, voting against deletion [1]. Enough was deleted from Transnistria article itself, Wikipedia is full with Tiraspol's propaganda, let's have at least an article that explain this propaganda--MariusM 18:18, 20 September 2006 (UTC)[reply]

I reverted myself, because it's not really that big of a deal anyways. —Khoikhoi 04:40, 6 October 2006 (UTC)[reply]

Hello Alexrap, thank you for contacting me. Actually, it was Khoikhoi who asked me to protect the article due to edit war. I don't get involved in the disputes occurring in an article that I protected, as required by the protection policy. But when there's a consensus on the article's talk page about the disputed content, then you may place {{Editprotected}} there and wait for another admin to have a look. Requests for significant edits to a protected page can also be placed on WP:RPP. Now, I should alert that 2 editors aren't usually enough to establish a consensus if another editor still disagrees with your views. I recommend placing a request for comment in order to attract more input to your dispute. I hope this helped. Merry Xmas. Regards.--Húsönd 15:02, 20 December 2006 (UTC)[reply]

You have my support against hungarian propaganda.--Zancsi 20:07, 26 December 2006 (UTC)[reply]

New reply.--Michkalas 15:45, 16 January 2007 (UTC)[reply]

As he is now a European Commissioner, I suppose it is impossible that he is also a state secretary with the Ministry of European Integration in the Romanian government. But I cannot find any source about this, at least in English.--Michkalas 13:26, 22 January 2007 (UTC)[reply]

Michkalas, I guess you must be right. I couldn't find either something specifically saying that he is no longer a state secretary, but it is probably implied by the fact that he has now a new job. Alexrap 14:49, 22 January 2007 (UTC)[reply]

I added back the 1850m because that is currently what pilots will see when looking for information about the airport. I know that the reference is dated 08 June 2006 (see page 4) but the Aeronautical Information Publication is updated every 28 or 56 days depending on the country, so as of now that is the current information. At the same time I changed the sentence about the 2100m to show who said it had been extended and where they said it. This will help the reader to see that it's a valid bit of information from the airport director and in a leading paper. THe actual length gets even more confusing if you look at this document from OCtober 2006 that says on page 11 "The airport’s runway will be extended, first - from 1,850 metres to 2,200 metres, and then, to 2,500 metres, in a second stage." but this one on page 23 would seem to indicate the runway is already 2100m. Unfortunally there's no date on the second one.

Also in the infobox I changed the external link to go directly to the English site. The link at the bottom of the page goes to the Romanian version. At least one of the links should be to the English version as this is the English WIkipedia. Cheers. CambridgeBayWeather (Talk)

I don't insist that it goes in the infobox, others have been telling me that's where the AIP reference should go. In most airports the technical information doesn't come up outside of the infobox so there's no other place to link it. I had complaints that not linking from the infobox was confusing and even had people remove the references because it wasn't linked.

Anyway, I've changed the length to 2100 and moved the reference out of the box. CambridgeBayWeather (Talk) 21:48, 16 February 2007 (UTC)[reply]

• I will try to explain why minorities' rights should be protected. Very simple: We live in the 21st century and shouldn't follow those medieval practices you mentioned.
• By the way, I am really interested, can you please clarify which period and region do you mean when you state that Romanians were not allowed to enter towns? I believe it happened in some cases, but when, where and how? Does this apply to the whole medieval period? Was it a common practice in every town? How could have Vlad Tepes born in Sighişoara? His mother pretended to be a Saxon?
• Were only the Romanians supressed? I know an example, the Budai Nagy Antal revolt (Bobalna Revolt) when Hungarian and Romanian peasants were fighting together against their feudal landlords and one of the reasons behind their anger was that the landlords didn't allow them to move into the towns because they were afraid they would lose cheap workforce. Or, I know that Székelys were opressed by the Aristocracy in Transylvania in the late 16th century and this is why they supported Mihai Viteazul. These were examples about how Hungarians were facing feudal opression. I am sure you can show a couple of examples about how Romanians were stopped at town gates. --KIDB 21:49, 6 May 2007 (UTC)[reply]

We both fully agree that the minorities' rights should be protected. There is no discussion about this point at all. What I don't understand, though, is how can some people admire the structure and policy of the Kingdom of Hungary and in the same time say that the Hungarian minority in today's Romania does not enjoy full rights. This is the mystery I was referring to. For me, that is a very good example of double standard. I have no problems with Hungarians making sure that they enjoy all the rights in today's Romania, but unfortunately I see a significant number of Hungarian users here in Wikipedia "mourning" the loss of the Hungarian majority in some Transylvanian cities. When in fact the only major change in their ethnic structure was the levelling of the urban/rural ethnic composition.

The history of Transylvania is quite complex and, to make things even worse, it is also very much contested between "rival parties". Nationality, for a long time was not an issue in Transylvania at all. Religion was, though. Romanians in Transylvania after 1366 were left with a difficult choice: conversion to Catholicism, or a decay in social status. Some of those who chose the first option became in the end an integral part of a Transylvanian political life (e.g. John Hunyadi) and are now considered by the Hungarian historians as part of their nation. Many others remained Orthodox. This meant that almost all of them were serfs. Unio Trium Nationum only made things worse for them, establishing a legal system that excluded Romanians. In these condition it was absolutely impossible for them to become integrated in any sort of urban development, as they were restricted to the land of their "owners". Unfortunately, after the feudal system started to be abolished in Transylvania, ethnicity became an important issue and minorities in the Kingdom of Hungary started to be faced with the Magyarization policy. But, at least for me, is quite clear that such policies cannot be sustainable (especially in today's world).

Now about the Hungarian rights in today's Romania: I have the feeling that many people actually have no idea of the situation as I was faced with some opinions that were so far away from the truth. Any Hungarian in today's Romania has access to education in Hungarian at all levels and not many people know that they are actually positively discriminated in this respect. Also there is a very well established Hungarian cultural life (media, theatres, operas etc.). What else could we ask for, in order to make life any better in Transylvania? Other than economic development which is needed for everyone (Romanians, Hungarians, Romas, etc.). Alexrap 12:52, 7 May 2007 (UTC)[reply]

Yes, I agree with most of what you wrote. The Magyarisation in the 19th century was a mistake and most modern Hungarian historians regret it. The fight against non-Catholics in the middle ages - I am now reading a book about the historical chronology of Hungary and there are several records about the Pope writing letters to the Hungarian Kings in the 12-13th centuries requesting that no Jew or Muslim (!) are employed in high offices... The Pope wrote repeatedly because the Hungarian Court didn't act according to his requests... In this period still there were many Orthodox (Greek) believers in Hungary (Hungarians, too) and there were Kings with very strong relation to the Byzantine Empire. In later centuries, the fight against the Orthodox and Reformed Churches folowed. It was a time when people were thinking in a different way. --KIDB 13:16, 7 May 2007 (UTC)[reply]

I suggest not to delete information about the Hungarian heritage in Transylvania. It is not a nice thing to do. --KIDB 15:50, 10 May 2007 (UTC)[reply]

Yes you're right, I mistakenly looked only at the first line of the statistics showing an abbsolute Hu majority in the town and I did not realise the data were from 1850. It was a huge mistake, I know. Thanks for the comment, I would have reverted myself, but I see you did it for me. Thanks. About Cofariu - yes, Romanian farmers from the neighbouring villages were brought in by Vatra Romaneasca and Cofariu was not simply doing shopping on that day in Targu Mures. Anyway, deleting things and leaving a note that you simply copy-edited is ... (Well, I don't want to be offensive). --KIDB 09:54, 17 May 2007 (UTC)[reply]

I agree with you but we have to demonstrate it is so. Unfortunately I don't have any data about but if you know how many faculties, specialities has and we can show that there is no other university that has so much, we can put it back. I just know it is the most complex, I don't have any source for it. --R O ^{A M A T A A} | msg  12:51, 30 August 2007 (UTC)[reply]

On the discussion page of the above mentioned article, there was a debate about the usage of a newspaper article as a reference in several places throughout the article. My opinion is that citing a 2008 newspaper article to support the fact that the Treaty was concluded at the end of WWI is not appropriate, as it is a well known fact. It's like citing a 2008 newspaper article to support the fact that the US Declaration of Independence happened in 1776. Citations to the NYT article should remain in places where they are appropriate. And this is what I tried to do, leaving it as a reference in 2 different places. However, I have seen that you reinserted the reference in several other places, where, in my opinion, such a referencing is artificial. This reduces the quality of the article. Alexrap (talk) 14:06, 14 April 2008 (UTC)[reply]

Nothing other than common knowledge should be in Wikipedia without a citation. To remove citations that are required contravenes Wikipedia:Verifiability. Stifle (talk) 14:09, 14 April 2008 (UTC)[reply]

That was exactly my point. The fact that the Treaty of Trianon is a treaty concluded at the end of WWI is common knowledge. At least for someone who comes across such an article. And if it still requires a reference (which I don't think it's the case), the best reference is a good history book, not a 2008 newspaper article. Alexrap (talk) 14:32, 14 April 2008 (UTC)[reply]

Salutare, sunt ro:utilizator:asybaris01 si am dezvoltat un articol monografic despre satul meu natal ro:Racoviţa, Sibiu. Acest articol a obtinut statutul de articol de calitate pe wikipedia romaneasca. Daca veti avea amabilitatea de a-l citi sau macar de a-l vizualiza veti vedea amploarea lui, precum si bogatia de informatii existente in articolele adiacente. Dupa parerea mea si a altora este un produs de export cultural pentru Romania. Am inceput demersurile de cauta traducatori specializati pentru promovarea lui in alte limbi de circulatie internationala. V-as fi recunoscator daca v-ati exprima parerea despre el si mai ales daca timpul va permite sa participati la publicarea lui in limba engleza.Asybaris01 (talk) 14:36, 23 April 2008 (UTC)[reply]
