censorship

Censoring sourced info that you don't like, as you did at Croatian language, is not acceptable in an encyclopedia. You are aware of the dispute about this; the consent has been that for linguistic classifications, we use linguistics, not politics. If you wish for a change in this instance, please bring it to the talk page; if you feel that you are not getting a satisfactory response there, there are other options outlined at WP:dispute resolution. Edit warring is not the way to go. — kwami (talk) 09:10, 21 May 2010 (UTC)[reply]

Unencyclopedic unscientific article

First of all, Wikipedia is an encyclopedia, all famous Encyclopedias use the Central Europe term. All European Geography society of national scientific academies use the C.E. term too. Therefore the denial of this term is unencyclopedic and unscientific. It is a geographical (scientific) qustion rather than political.

Encyclopedia Britannica Cambridge Encyclopedia American Columbia Encyclopedia

German Brochaus Encyclopedia

French Larousse and French Encyclopædia Universalis

All of them Use the Central Europe term.

United Nations is chiefly a political organisation rather than scientific.

Geography is one of exact sciences. For that reason, geographic center of Europe is located in Ukraine. If you argue that C.E. is something that does not include the center of Europe - it is no longer scientific in the scope of geography, but some other approach. E.g. West Germany is located in the west Quarter of the continent and according to nongeographical criteria is located in C.E. Likewise, Ukraine is geographical central Europe, but due to usage of nongeographical criteria is classified into east Europe. All of the sources that you listed above use political borders (the borders of modern states)to determine the term. Therefore, they (even though encyclopedias) use political, cultural, historical or other criteria (not geographical) to define the term. I don's see a reason why all other marginal views deserve their space on this article and the worldwide institution not? Explain why do you dislike UN? It is the most quoted source in Wikipedia, btw. Please sign your work next time.

Your map is based on political (country) borders instead of geographical! UN use old cold-war terms. Ukraine is not located in the geographical center of Europe. It is easliy determinable when you see a map! Encyclopedias were written by academic scholars and scientists, they represent te official scientific viewpoint of a country. And all important Europen encyclopedias use the Central-Europe term! Please don't write nonsenses!--78.92.106.176 (talk) 06:02, 10 October 2010 (UTC)[reply]

You must have skipped history classes about cold war.
Depending on geographic method used, the center of Europe is either in Belarus, Lithuania, Poland or Ukraine. French National Geographic Institute defines Lithuania to be center of the Continent. [1](This is science). Even if the most western point in Poland is taken, it is still dubious that Switzerland is CE and Belarus and Lithuania or Ukraine are not. This is evidence enough that the article is not explaining geographic CE but rather political or some other perspective.

Geographic c. of Europe [2]; Lithuania [3]; Ukraine [4] etc... If you were little more scientific, you would know that "official scientific viewpoint" does not exist, except when in the field of mathematics, and still, even there, there are contoversies.Hammer of Habsburg (talk) 11:56, 14 October 2010 (UTC)[reply]

You confuse geometry and geography:) Countries with Eastern Orthodox majority aren't Central European. They have neveer called as Central Europe. Why do you try to dispute an academic/encyclopedic fact? You can find Central Europe term and its countries in every national Encíclopedia. Therefore you lost the debate. Europe is a cultural term rather than physical reality. Europe and Asia is 1 and the same Continent. Read the Eurasia article. There are an artificial borderline between the two. The idea of separate Europe from Asia is based on a very old cultural border and background. Toponyms and Geographical names are based on traditions rather than geometry!

This dispute has been going on for some time, motivated primarily by nationalism; all of the

restriction placed on the article, which exposes you to being blocked.

P.S. "Macrolanguage" is an in-house term coined by Ethnologue. No-one that I'm aware of follows their usage. — kwami (talk) 00:11, 18 October 2010 (UTC)[reply]

You've now violated the restrictions on the article twice. Please revert yourself in the next few minutes, or I'll ask to have you blocked. — kwami (talk) 00:20, 18 October 2010 (UTC)[reply]

collaborate with others may be blocked if they continue. In particular the three-revert rule states that making more than three reversions on a single page within a 24-hour period is almost always grounds for an immediate block. If you find yourself in an editing dispute, use the talk page to discuss controversial changes. Work towards wording and content that gains consensus among editors. If unsuccessful then do not edit war even if you believe you are right. Post a request for help at an appropriate noticeboard or seek dispute resolution. In some cases it may be appropriate to request temporary page protection. If edit warring continues, you may be blocked from editing without further notice. TFOWR 16:10, 19 October 2010 (UTC)[reply

You have broken the 1RR again on Croatian language again. If I were you' I'd self-revert before you're blocked once more. I mean, you can't do much when you're blocked! Chipmunkdavis (talk) 16:23, 19 October 2010 (UTC)[reply]

Oops, I missed that. Hammer of Habsburg, disregard my 3RR warning, consider this a 1RR warning, and consider yourself lucky I was asleep at the wheel and didn't block you. TFOWR 16:26, 19 October 2010 (UTC)[reply]

Do you not know what a 1RR rule is? Revert yourself before an admin blocks you. Chipmunkdavis (talk) 02:03, 27 October 2010 (UTC)[reply]

ARBMAC violation, again.

I am reporting your 1RR violation of Croatian language at Wikipedia:Arbitration/Requests/Enforcement#Hammer of Habsburg (Croatian language), in case you wish to defend yourself. — kwami (talk) 02:05, 27 October 2010 (UTC)[reply]

Notice

The Arbitration Committee has permitted administrators to impose, at their own discretion, sanctions on any editor working on pages broadly related to the Balkans if the editor repeatedly or seriously fails to adhere to the purpose of Wikipedia, any expected standards of behavior, or any normal editorial process. If you engage in further inappropriate behavior in this area, you may be placed under sanctions including blocks, a revert limitation or an article ban.
