Re: Trouble with image size...

The dimensions given are a maximum in either dimension, regardless of proportion, so vertically-oriented images will come out smaller than horizontally-oriented ones. I'm of the opinion that this, while inconvenient, is better than having widely inconsistent row heights (which would be the result if the height was not so sharply limited); it's not like the images really need to be well-viewable anyways, just recognizable enough to serve as icons.

As a practical point, perhaps the image could be rotated sideways? ;-) Kirill Lokshin 22:31, 7 November 2006 (UTC)[reply]

Thank you for your support!

If I'm a bit pale in the face now,
it's because of the amazing support
during my recent request for adminship
and because of all those new shiny buttons.

And if in the future
my use of them should not always be perfect
please don't hesitate to shout at me
any time, sunset, noon or sunrise.

Vandalism???

Before accusing me of vandalism, please note that the Red Army invasion of Georgia cannot be merged with the entry which redirects back to the article. Thanks, --Kober 19:13, 8 November 2006 (UTC)[reply]

Should we also rename Invasion of Poland (1939), Invasion of Yugoslavia, Anglo-Soviet invasion of Iran and 2003 invasion of Iraq? Red Army invasion of Georgia is the name most frequently used in scholarly literature and I've provided dozens of sources for that. Invasion is invasion: It either happened or not. My sources say it happened and use exactly the word "invasion" to describe the event. If you have some sources claiming otherwise, please provide. See Talk:Red Army invasion of Georgia for more details. --Kober 19:55, 8 November 2006 (UTC)[reply]

You have a point, but I think that one should explain his/her reasoning when tagging the article. This sort of edit summary cannot be considered a valid argument, but rather a personal attack upon the author of the article. The article and its title are well-referenced, but still not so easily acceptable to some users who, unfortunately, still believe in Soviet-era myths about the "workers revolution in Georgia" and "brotherly aid provided by the Peasants and Workers Red Army." Best, --Kober 20:37, 8 November 2006 (UTC)[reply]

P.S. Please also note POV and OR content of the Russian-Georgian war article and its pro-Georgian emphasis. Despite being Georgian, I would recommend to have it deleted. Thanks, Kober 20:48, 8 November 2006 (UTC)[reply]

Stuff

Hi, Some time ago you put a {{POV}} tag to this article Occupation of Bessarabia by the Soviet Union, but you did not say anything about your reasons in the talk page. By now the article has seen some more clean-up from several good-faith users. Could, you, please, read the article again in the near future, and post your objections in the talk page. Thank you. :Dc76 06:45, 11 November 2006 (UTC)[reply]

If I am not misteken, you were one of the people that held on to the Moldovan census of 2004 and the Ukrainain census of 2001 as if your own life was at stake. You wanted to keep official data in the censa and you did not allow for users to state alternate sources and views (i.e. that Moldovans are in fact Romanians), exactly because you wanted to "cite census data only". We both know that is NOT the real reason but anyways...NOW you come to the Romanians article and claim that census data do not have to be used since they too have mistakes? This is a double-standard! Either we all agree (as a wiki. community) that census data will not be primary sources when estimating the population numbers or we all agree that they do - which is exactly the situation right now. But please do not push one POV in some articles and totally different norms and requirements in others.Dapiks 22:46, 12 November 2006 (UTC)[reply]

U.S. military Eastern Front maps

Hi Grafikm, I am trying to update the Soviet Fronts by listing the armies assigned to them at various times, and one of the readily available sources seems to be the brilliant US Army Eastern Front maps. Is there a central list of them somewhere? Cheers Buckshot06 08:19, 20 November 2006 (UTC)[reply]

Privet, [1]. Mais je ne suis pas encore convaincu à 100%. Il se disait belge, mais je ne vois rien de belge sur ses pages. Pas de contributions a l' article sur la Belgique, pe.

Removing tags

Even if you disagree with its application, you cannot simply remove the "replaceable fair use" tag, anymore than you can remove an AfD tag. It's considered vandalism. Please continue to dispute it on the talk page by all means, but leave the tag be. Thanks. —Chowbok ☠ 21:33, 24 November 2006 (UTC)[reply]

Sources d'images

Tout d'abord, bonjour de la partie francophone de wikipedia, comme je suis pas sûr que tu traînes chez nous je te laisse une petite bafouille, ici. J'aurais besoin que tu renseignes au moins sur en:, la source pour quatre photos, à savoir :

En effet, celles-ci ont été copiées sur fr:, suite à la traduction de ton article sur la bataille de Smolensk. J'essaye de vider notre catégorie de domaine public URSS, et d'envoyer les photos sur commons, mais sans source, c'est le casse-pipe assuré. À l'occasion, jettes aussi, un oeil à http://victory.rusarchives.ru/, il ont une galerie assez intéressante, avec le nom des auteurs, mais j'arrive pas à deviner, si c'est libre de droits ;). Merci d'avance. fr:User:Bilou
