G'day PRODUCER. Can you confirm that Pajovic states Djurisic was awarded the Iron Cross on p78? Peacemaker67 (talk) 11:20, 18 October 2012 (UTC)[reply]

Serbian source

Just wondering if this is of any value? [1]. Could you have a look? It might be available through a resource request, but there is no DOI on the page. Cheers, Peacemaker67 (talk) 22:30, 19 October 2012 (UTC)[reply]

Hi. Thank you for your recent edits. Wikipedia appreciates your help. We noticed though that when you edited Invasion of Yugoslavia, you added a link pointing to the disambiguation page Slovene (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.

Potential A-Class article nomination

G'day, which of Jevdjevic and Pecanac do you think is the best candidate for MILHIST A-Class? I've got one at FAC and one about to be put up for GAN, but it doesn't seem fair not to have one at ACR... Peacemaker67 (talk) 03:30, 1 November 2012 (UTC)[reply]

I'd go with Jevdjevic. --◅ PRODUCER (TALK) 18:40, 1 November 2012 (UTC)[reply]
OK, are you happy to co-nominate? I have some additional material from Redzic and Ramet's 3Y to add before it goes up, not much but a bit here and there. Are you happy with using Redzic? Peacemaker67 (talk) 09:38, 2 November 2012 (UTC)[reply]
Yes on both counts. --◅ PRODUCER (TALK) 09:45, 2 November 2012 (UTC)[reply]
OK, I'll let you know when I put it up. Peacemaker67 (talk) 09:53, 2 November 2012 (UTC)[reply]

Dispute resolution

Hello, I have filed a Wikipedia:Dispute_resolution_noticeboard#Talk:Boris_Malagurski.2C_Talk:The_Weight_of_Chains Dispute resolution case for Talk:Boris Malagurski and Talk:The Weight of Chains. Feel free to comment. Regards, --UrbanVillager (talk) 19:09, 6 November 2012 (UTC)[reply]

Apologies for getting your name wrong ... I will amend and (I hope you don't mind) remove your 'chuckle' remark ... Only in the interests of clear argument on the DR page. Also I've added my response to the sponsors issue on the WoC talk page, which is (partial) agreement with you.Pincrete (talk) 09:11, 9 November 2012 (UTC)[reply]

No harm done. --◅ PRODUCER (TALK) 20:51, 9 November 2012 (UTC)[reply]

Thanks for removing the links to apparently copyright-infringing material at Boris Malagurski. The copies of the newspaper articles on that website were indeed probably reproduced without permission. However, I don't think there's any doubt that the original newspaper articles themselves exist, nor has anyone raised an objection to the reliability of the newspapers in which they appear. A better course of action would therefore have been to simply remove the problematic link within the reference instead of the entire reference. Can I suggest that you reinsert the references you've removed, minus the problematic links? —Psychonaut (talk) 20:21, 6 November 2012 (UTC)[reply]

Perhaps I spoke too soon about the reliability issue—I just noticed your post referring to them as tabloids. If you were removing them on those grounds, it would have been helpful to mention this in the edit summary. Your edit summary and warning notice addressed only the copyright issue. —Psychonaut (talk) 20:29, 6 November 2012 (UTC)[reply]
I intend to look at all the sources one by one in due time. Just like we can't have UrbanVillager inserting copyright infringing links while berating others for the same, we can't have a double standard with regards to the reliability of sources. --◅ PRODUCER (TALK) 21:30, 6 November 2012 (UTC)[reply]

Bormalagurski etc.

Thanks for sorting out the link. Opbeith (talk) 18:03, 14 November 2012 (UTC)[reply]

You seem to be one of the many people round the world who take an interest in the heritage of the famous Malagurski surname. You may have seen the Malagurski (no first name) article created by Mr BM at the Serbian WP. It has an informative edit summary in February last year when the banning of Boris Malagurski on the English Wikipedia resulted in the link to an English article on the surname being removed - http://sr.wikipedia.org/w/index.php?title=%D0%9C%D0%B0%D0%BB%D0%B0%D0%B3%D1%83%D1%80%D1%81%D0%BA%D0%B8&diff=3130873&oldid=2655471

The article's talk page has only three not very recent messages, one of them by someone who seems to have a similar slightly tongue in cheek expectation that BM may still be interested. There are supposedly a whole 20 previous archives of the Talk page but oddly when you try to open them, they've entirely disappeared - http://sr.wikipedia.org/wiki/%D0%A0%D0%B0%D0%B7%D0%B3%D0%BE%D0%B2%D0%BE%D1%80:%D0%9C%D0%B0%D0%BB%D0%B0%D0%B3%D1%83%D1%80%D1%81%D0%BA%D0%B8

I also came across an entertaining talk page for the deleted Boris Malagurski article on the Croatian Wikipedia - UrbanVillager was offering to provide a million links for Boris to prove his importance so the article wouldn't have to go. I've posted the reference at the Sockpuppet discussion - http://sr.wikipedia.org/wiki/%D0%A0%D0%B0%D0%B7%D0%B3%D0%BE%D0%B2%D0%BE%D1%80:%D0%9C%D0%B0%D0%BB%D0%B0%D0%B3%D1%83%D1%80%D1%81%D0%BA%D0%B8 Opbeith (talk) 22:49, 14 November 2012 (UTC)[reply]
