Is the image of Seleucus I Nicator correct?[edit]
You uploaded Image:Seleukos nikator.jpg. And it is being used in the article Seleucus I Nicator with the caption "bust of Seleucus I Nicator" The image file says that the image is from http://www.livius.org/l but following that link gives a different picture labeled as "Seleucus I Nicator". Also, this image looks like a picture of the same bust which is labeled here as "Bust of Attalus I, circa 200 BCE from [1] ". Can help resolve this problem? Thanks.

Da li je Živ slovačko prezime? Luka Jačov 23:45, 23 December 2005 (UTC)
Ma ne prezivam se Živ nego Živković. Ovo je samo skraćeno. Nije slovačko, tata mi je iz Dalmacije. User:Boris Živ
Zašto mi nisi odgovorio na moj talk:)? Pa zašto nisi onda Boris Živkovič ili Bore Živ (ako čemo skračeno;)) Iz kojeg djela Dalmacije? Pretpostavljam Zadarsko ili Šibensko zaleđe. Pozdrav! Luka Jačov 22:20, 24 December 2005 (UTC) Zašto mi još nisi odgovorio:)?Luka Jačov 20:11, 29 December 2005 (UTC)

Ako je u planinama onda je Bukovica. Valjda su svi otišli poslje Oluje. Čude mi kako onda da si reko HolyRomanEmperoru da si Hrvat kad je Bukovica 90% pravoslavna a i Živkoviči ne mogu biti ništa drugo nego Pravoslavci. Luka Jačov 13:24, 11 January 2006 (UTC)
Hi there,
Good work on kings of Croatia! Just one thing you got wrong... Verb "to resign" means to give up, to relinquish, and verb "to reign" means to rule. I fixed your error, I'm just informing you so you know for future application. --Dijxtra 10:47, 24 December 2005 (UTC)
Croatian articles[edit]
Hi! I added some categories to your recent articles about Croatian nobility figures. I hope that this category tree will help you place your articles into the proper categories. Each link there is a general category. Then readers can find your articles easier. Thanks. Gilliamjf 18:53, 30 December 2005 (UTC)
Trpimir[edit]
I see you copy/pasted content of Trpimir article to Trpimir I of Croatia. Now, that's wrong. If you want to change the name of the article, please use the "move" button on top of the article. --Dijxtra 19:01, 30 December 2005 (UTC)

Question[edit]
Why not add Serbian language to your babel to include all ex Serbo-Croat (or Serbo-Croatian itself?) --HolyRomanEmperor 20:41, 8 January 2006 (UTC)
cool --HolyRomanEmperor 14:29, 9 January 2006 (UTC)
I don't really understand the necessity of that move. There were two Prijezdas (the 1st and the 2nd); but isn't it obvious that the Prijezda without the suphix was actually Prijezda Ist? Should we move it back? --HolyRomanEmperor 14:32, 9 January 2006 (UTC)
- Hej! pozdrav! Da ti odgovorim na pitanja! prvo, i dalje slobodno uređuj moju User Page. Meni ne smeta. Pa ne bavim se ovim iz nekog interesa, baš je zabavno. Kad mi dosadi, uzeti ću odmor... Samo ostavi u tabli da govorim hrvatski (hrvat sam) i nešto malo engleski, ali napredujem. Što se tiče Prijezde I. Pa znaš da se imena vladara počinju brojkama, I,II,III,IV,V... ako sa vremenom (ime,pojam i sl.) Prijezda bude još nešto označavao, može postati i Disambiguation page. I za kraj, pa odakle ti da Prijezda I i Prijezda II nisu članovi House of Kotromanić? Jesu.99% (ništa nije 100%). Pročitaj hrvatsku stranicu o dinastiji ili encikopediju Lekikografskog zavoda (hrvatska enc.). Dinastija je dobila ime po Kotromanu ali je Prijezda I prvi poznati član te dinastije!
Za kraj, mislim da je u stranica o državi Bosnia and Herzegovina u komi. To jest, onaj dio o povijesti. Pa to treba u nekoliko rečenica reći a detalji idu u stranci za povijest...ovo je predugačko. Što se tiče stranice History of Bosnia and Herzegovina...Idi na Talk:History of Bosnia and Herzegovina ak ti nije problem za raspravu o dijeljenju stranice (37. Separate articles). pozdrav! Boris Živ
imas moj odgovor na mojoj stranici Talk:HolyRomanEmperor --HolyRomanEmperor 16:05, 10 January 2006 (UTC)
Odgovor[edit]
Upotrebio sam istu logiku kao sa Trpimirovic dynasty i Nemanjić. Vojvoda Trpimir i Velikie Župan Stefan Nemanja nisu prvi iz svoje kuće ali jesu osnivači dinastija.
Uopće nemam pojma o čemu pričaš. Ja ti nijesam dirao User page! Bog i čujmo se! --HolyRomanEmperor 23:20, 14 January 2006 (UTC)
Image Tagging Image:Pericles1.jpg[edit]
|
This media may be deleted.
|
Thanks for uploading Image:Pericles1.jpg. I notice the 'image' page currently doesn't specify who created the content, so the copyright status is therefore unclear. If you have not created this media yourself then you need to argue that we have the right to use the media on Wikipedia (see copyright tagging below). If you have not created the media yourself then you should also specify where you found it, i.e., in most cases link to the website where you got it, and the terms of use for content from that page.
If the media also doesn't have a copyright tag then you must also add one. If you created/took the picture, audio, or video then you can use {{GFDL}} to release it under the GFDL. If you believe the media qualifies as fair use, please read fair use, and then use a tag such as {{Non-free fair use in|article name}} or one of the other tags listed at Wikipedia:Image copyright tags#Fair_use. See Wikipedia:Image copyright tags for the full list of copyright tags that you can use.
If you have uploaded other media, please check that you have specified their source and copyright tagged them, too. You can find a list of 'image' pages you have edited by clicking on the "my contributions" link (it is located at the very top of any Wikipedia page when you are logged in), and then selecting "Image" from the dropdown box. Note that any unsourced and untagged images will be deleted one week after they have been uploaded, as described on criteria for speedy deletion. Thank you. Longhair 11:41, 3 February 2006 (UTC)

Re: title[edit]
A - pa ovako: titula mu je bila Ban Bosne - od 1377 je Kralj Srba i Bosne i Pomorja i Zapadnih strana. Od 1390 je Kralj Raske, Bosne, Dalmacije, Hrvatske i Pomorja. Kraca verzija titule mu je bila Kralj Srba i Bosne - tj. mnogo poznatije Kralj Bosne i Srbije. Dakle, slijedeci kraljevi bosne ce svi nositi razlicite titule: Stijepan Tomas: Kralj Srba, Bosne, Primorja, Humske zemlje, Donjih Kraja, Usore, Soli, Podrinja i Zapadnih strana, Stijepan Tvrtko II: Kralj Srba, Bosne, Primorja i Humske zemlje... itd... No - svima ostaje "Kralj Bosne i Srbije" karakteristicno od Tvrtka skroz do pada Bosne. --HolyRomanEmperor 19:08, 6 March 2006 (UTC)
Isto kao i Stjepan Dabisa: Kralj Srba, Bosne, Pomorja, Humske zemlje, Zapadnih strana, Donjih Kraja, Usore, Soli i Podrinja ili Stjepan Ostoja: Kralj Srba, Bosne, Pomorja, Humske zemlje, Donjih Kraja, Zapadnih strana, Usore, Soli i Podrinja.
Tvrtko je ostao kao nominalan vladar srpskih zemalja - i ujedinio ih je pod Knezom Lazarom. Dalje je i izvojevao (Pirovu) pobjedu na Kosovskome boju. Kako kazu Stjepan Tvrtko I i Stjepan Ostojic - njih dvojica su naslijedili zemlju od praroditelja srpskih. No - najkraca forma je "Kralj Bosne i Srbije".
I naravno da treba uvrstiti Stjepana Tvrtka I kao hrvatskoga vladara na List of rulers of Croatia. Bog! --HolyRomanEmperor 19:24, 6 March 2006 (UTC)
Image copyright problem with Image:Drebbel cover.jpg[edit]
Thanks for uploading Image:Drebbel cover.jpg. However, the image may soon be deleted unless we can determine the copyright holder and copyright status. The Wikimedia Foundation is very careful about the images included in Wikipedia because of copyright law (see Wikipedia's Copyright policy).
The copyright holder is usually the creator, the creator's employer, or the last person who was transferred ownership rights. Copyright information on images is signified using copyright templates. The three basic license types on Wikipedia are open content, public domain, and fair use. Find the appropriate template in Wikipedia:Image copyright tags and place it on the image page like this: {{TemplateName}}.
Please signify the copyright information on any other images you have uploaded or will upload. Remember that images without this important information can be deleted by an administrator. If you have any questions, feel free to contact me. Thank you. Shyam (T/C) 00:14, 11 March 2006 (UTC)

Timur statue in Samarkand/Tashkent[edit]
The photo on the Samarkand page features a photo of a statue of Timur. The photo, however, is of a statue in Tashkent. On the discussion page of the Samarkand entry I've provided a link to a photo of the statue of Timur that actually sits in Samarkand. I don't really know how to fix this problem, so I thought I'd let you know. Thanx!

Image:Demetrius poliorcetes.jpg[edit]
Thanks for uploading Image:Demetrius poliorcetes.jpg. I notice the 'image' page specifies that the image is being used under fair use, but its use in Wikipedia articles fails our first fair use criterion in that it illustrates a subject for which a freely licensed image could reasonably be found or created that provides substantially the same information. If you believe this image is not replaceable, please:
- Go to the image description page and edit it to add
{{Replaceable fair use disputed}}, without deleting the original Replaceable fair use template. - On the image discussion page, write the reason why this image is not replaceable at all.
Alternatively, you can also choose to replace the fair use image by finding a freely licensed image of its subject, requesting that the copyright holder release this (or a similar) image under a free license, or by taking a picture of it yourself.
If you have uploaded other fair use media, consider checking that you have specified how these images fully satisfy our fair use criteria. You can find a list of 'image' pages you have edited by clicking on this link. Note that any fair use images which are replaceable by free-licensed alternatives will be deleted one week after they have been uploaded, as described on criteria for speedy deletion. If you have any questions please ask them at the Media copyright questions page. Thank you. Chowbok ☠ 02:00, 19 December 2006 (UTC)
Hello. Go to the talk page of Juraj Julije Klović and help out with the discussion. A fanatical Italian user keeps on inserting his POV/nationalism into the article, and has now requested the page be moved to "Giorgio Giulio Clovio" - which is false as the man was a Croat and was born in Croatia. There is a vote on the rename happening on the talk page. Please help, as he is canvassing for votes from other Italian users. —The preceding unsigned comment was added by 124.187.23.190 (talk) 04:41, 1 January 2007 (UTC).

Replaceable fair use Image:Timur.jpg[edit]
Thanks for uploading Image:Timur.jpg. I noticed the 'image' page specifies that the image is being used under fair use, but its use in Wikipedia articles fails our first fair use criterion in that it illustrates a subject for which a freely licensed image could reasonably be found or created that provides substantially the same information.

{{di-replaceable fair use disputed}}, without deleting the original Replaceable fair use template. - On the image discussion page, write the reason why this image is not replaceable at all.
Alternatively, you can also choose to replace the fair use image by finding a freely licensed image of its subject, requesting that the copyright holder release this (or a similar) image under a free license, or by taking a picture of it yourself.

Hi! It seems you recently created an unreferenced biography of a living person: Ade Capone.

Hi. Thank you for your recent edits. Wikipedia appreciates your help.

Hi,
You appear to be eligible to vote in the current Arbitration Committee election. The Arbitration Committee is the panel of editors responsible for conducting the Wikipedia arbitration process. It has the authority to enact binding solutions for disputes between editors, primarily related to serious behavioural issues that the community has been unable to resolve. This includes the ability to impose site bans, topic bans, editing restrictions, and other measures needed to maintain our editing environment. The arbitration policy describes the Committee's roles and responsibilities in greater detail. If you wish to participate, you are welcome to review the candidates' statements and submit your choices on the voting page.

Europe 10,000 Challenge invite[edit]
Hi. The Wikipedia:WikiProject Europe/The 10,000 Challenge has recently started, based on the UK/Ireland Wikipedia:The 10,000 Challenge. The idea is not to record every minor edit, but to create a momentum to motivate editors to produce good content improvements and creations and inspire people to work on more countries than they might otherwise work on. There's also the possibility of establishing smaller country or regional challenges for places like Germany, Italy, the Benelux countries, Iberian Peninsula, Romania, Slovenia etc, much like Wikipedia:The 1000 Challenge (Nordic). For this to really work we need diversity and exciting content and editors from a broad range of countries regularly contributing. If you would like to see masses of articles being improved for Europe and your specialist country like Wikipedia:WikiProject Africa/The Africa Destubathon, sign up today and once the challenge starts a contest can be organized. This is a way we can target every country of Europe, and steadily vastly improve the encyclopedia. We need numbers to make this work so consider signing up as a participant and also sign under any country sub challenge on the page that you might contribute to! Thank you. --Ser Amantio di NicolaoChe dicono a Signa?Lo dicono a Signa. 02:38, 6 November 2016 (UTC)
The article Himilco (disambiguation) has been proposed for deletion because of the following concern:
- Page not needed as only two entries.
While all constructive contributions to Wikipedia are appreciated, pages may be deleted for any of several reasons.
You may prevent the proposed deletion by removing the {{proposed deletion/dated}} notice, but please explain why in your edit summary or on the article's talk page.
Please consider improving the page to address the issues raised. Removing {{proposed deletion/dated}} will stop the proposed deletion process, but other deletion processes exist. In particular, the speedy deletion process can result in deletion without discussion, and articles for deletion allows discussion to reach consensus for deletion.
