Dear Joy can I have your assistance

The user Wüstenfuchs is behaving disruptively towards the Croats in Bosnia and Herzegovina article, removing sourced information on the early settlements of Croat tribes in the 7th century (John Fine, Google books link), and persistently mentioning the Stecci in the context of the first Croatian king Tomislav, on one hand constituting an anachronism, and on the other, a flawed and feeble attempt to somehow prove the "Croatianess" of the Stecci. In addition he insists on advancing the claim that Tomislav's kingdom covered whole of Bosnia as an indisputable fact (which it is not), and has repeatedly removed a link neatly embedded by me to a well-sourced discussion about this on the page about king Tomislav. I think his comment that "Croats settled in Bosnia and Herzegovina as well, and they inhabitet majority of it. Most of Bosnia was under Croatia" pretty much explains his biased and predetermined view on things. Please visit Wüstenfuchs' and my talk page for further information. Thank you.

Disambiguation possibly needed

Hi! I'm not sure about this, but perhaps it would be wise to create disambiguation page about different "Pandurs" after all. There is the Trenck's unit (covered by the Pandurs now exclusively), there are late 18th century frontier guard (facing the Ottoman empire) unit type (no article yet) - which have absolutely nothing to do with the Trenck, except shared name, there are "security" guards, policing areas in Croatia, Slavonia, Dalmatia, maybe elsewhere, and there were Pandurs in Romania, currently covered by Tudor Vladimirescu. As I said, I'm not too sure about how to proceed (there may be other uses too, which I'm not aware of), so could you please pitch in? Thanks.--Tomobe03 (talk) 08:22, 27 October 2012 (UTC)[reply]

Independence of Croatia

Hi! I had a chance to look at the Independence of Croatia article recently and added a few missing refs to leave no paras unsupported. The article looks as if it has a decent shot at WP:GAN, perhaps missing some information in the lead per WP:LEAD and a copyedit beforehand. Would you be interested in taking that up?--Tomobe03 (talk) 11:58, 1 November 2012 (UTC)[reply]

Hi. Thank you for your recent edits. Wikipedia appreciates your help. We noticed though that when you edited Massimo Savić, you added a link pointing to the disambiguation page Aquarius Records (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.

E-novine

There's another discussion at the Boris Malagurski article and at RSN regarding the reliability of E-novine which you were previously involved in February. Thought you might be interested. --◅ PRODUCER (TALK) 15:18, 8 November 2012 (UTC)[reply]

Producer, after "Phone a friend", you have the "50:50" and "Ask the audience" lifelines left. --UrbanVillager (talk) 15:36, 8 November 2012 (UTC)[reply]

Reverts

Hi Joy, can you look into these reverts? The Kulenovic's are known self declared Croats so I don't see why would the reverts stay. Here it was chanded into Bosniak and the ref I provided was gone without explanation: [1] and here categories were changed and deleted: [2]. I don't wan't to start edit war there with that user as it seems that was the case a few days ago with him and user Wüstenfuchs: [3].--Rovoobo Talk 09:07, 9 November 2012 (UTC)[reply]

Block

Hi,

I noticed that you blocked one user. The block was justified. I believe that his editing is mostly very constructive with numerous positive contributions and that if he violated wp policies it was not because of bad faith or tendentious editing but rather because of the lack of experience and knowledge about wp policies. Maybe it would be better (in future) to try more patient approach and to invest more energy in carefully explaining his mistakes before sanctions. --Antidiskriminator (talk) 13:25, 9 November 2012 (UTC)[reply]

Hi. Thank you for your recent edits. Wikipedia appreciates your help. We noticed though that when you edited Konavle, you added links pointing to the disambiguation pages Drvenik and Jasenice (check to confirm | fix with Dab solver).

Jasenovac-HRT

The numbers mentioned by HRT page represent only the victims from the territory of Peoples Republic of Crotia, so it does not include Bosnia and Herzegovina, Srem/Srijem and other parts of NDH. The current wording is WP:OR, so you have to correct it, or it will have to be removed. --Tritomex (talk) 14:12, 13 November 2012 (UTC)[reply]

Template

Hi! I see you have deleted Roman Pannonia in the "history of Hungary" template. I do not understand your reasoning. I am just wondering you should delete "Roman Dacia" at History of Romania template as well, because you can find that subject in the appropriate sections -for example- at page of History of Transylvania, or page of Origin or Romanians. Fakirbakir (talk) 10:37, 14 November 2012 (UTC)[reply]

I've seen this conversation and I was wondering if the title History of Hungary before the Hungarians is anachronistic or not Irji2012 (talk) 11:00, 14 November 2012 (UTC)[reply]
Some users do not want to go back to consensus (pre-dispute) version and are making a revert war https://en.wikipedia.org/w/index.php?title=Template:History_of_Hungary&action=history Irji2012 (talk) 11:14, 14 November 2012 (UTC)[reply]
