At List of Slovenians, User:68.234.200.53 made some changes which may be questionable. Since I know nothing about the subject matter, could you look at these changes and correct them if necessary. Maximus Rex 09:33, 1 Jan 2004 (UTC)
- Yes, Maximus Rex thank you for your notice. I've checked the page and I've made some reverted changes according to the policy of Wikipedia. I am convinced that these particular subjects will be argued by someones who still do not recognize the meaning and value of Slovene NOB (National liberation fight) during the WW2 and the other side of collaborational forces, which have devided the nation to suffer even more. The collective enemy was just one for the whole Slovene nation in those terrible days. The NOB was recognized by the Allies, so... Some recent reactionary communities try to change the NOB as communist plain revolution and not as the liberation fight against the Nazism - what in fact it was, really. Best regards and Happy New 2004. --XJamRastafire 20:32, 1 Jan 2004 (UTC)
I hope you do fill in Burning Spear's stuff -- I'm sure you'd do a great job. I get my album covers from [allmusic.com] -- those are a perfect size already. They don't have all of them though, and I dunno how to resize them. Good luck! (for reviews, check out [popmatters.com]. I bet they have some Burning Spear, and they're usually well-written and thorough) Tuf-Kat 07:50, Jan 3, 2004 (UTC)
Well, I've looked through your contribs on the en wikipedia, and you seem to be a sensible chap. sl plainly needs some admins, so (in the absence of a process) I hereby nominate you for adminship on sl. If you accept, I'll leave a message on Brion's TODO list. -- Finlay McWalter 22:44, 4 Jan 2004 (UTC)
- You may do so, I accept. Perhaps I lack some of computer related technical skills, but with a little help of my friends... Since I am here at least for two fine years I know some of Wikipedia's concepts. Thank you anyway. --XJamRastafire 22:53, 4 Jan 2004 (UTC)
- Hmm, perhaps I've overstepped myself. On reading how the other wikipedias do this, those that don't have a formal process seem to just do things on their Village Pump (or equivalent). Our VP doesn't have a link to the slovenian wikipedia, but I figure you guys have something like it? If that's the case, you should probably post my nomination there and leave it for a few days, just in case someone there objects. Then ideally some other english speaking sl.wikipedia contributor would leave a note on Brion's TODO list. Sorry to get things mixed up. -- Finlay McWalter 23:09, 4 Jan 2004 (UTC)
- No problem at all. Slovene Wikipedia will grow up soon and these problems will be solved as they are here in English Wikipedia. I'll do something in this direction. Truly speaking a term VP is strange for my native - but we shall figure something out. Best regards. --XJamRastafire 23:34, 4 Jan 2004 (UTC)
- VP is equally weird to by British-English ears. Perhaps "meeting room", "town square", "watercooler", or "salon" might make more sense. -- Finlay McWalter 23:40, 4 Jan 2004 (UTC)
- What about a "round table" (but not in a sence of King Arthur's one - just in a sence of literal translation of a Slovene term "okrogla miza" - or "forum", or even "debating circle" or also from Slovene customs "Under the lime" ("Pod lipo")? "Watercooler" is also strange :-) --XJamRastafire 00:30, 5 Jan 2004 (UTC)
- It's entirely up to you guys. I think the idea is to be "the place where informal conversation happens". Under the lime sounds quite pleasant. I'm surprised anything gets done on sl.wikipedia without such a forum. (Side note: "village bike" is british english for "the girl in the village who'll have sex with anyone", something I think the Americans didn't know when they decided upon "village pump" for en.wikipedia). -- Finlay McWalter 00:42, 5 Jan 2004 (UTC)
