I was in the middle of adding several references to New York Times articles, while I was typing up my response to the AfD, and it is truly remarkable that we both wrote nearly the same thing. Reading the 45-50 year-old articles and seeing the cavalier attitude of Robert Moses and his supported to what he perceived as "slums" makes one appreciate how much more could have been lost without a Jane Jacobs to take on the high and mighty. Let me know if I can help further with the article. Alansohn 06:56, 5 January 2007 (UTC)
Battle of Serres
I think you know that the Byzantines swore to support the Bulgarians in 1205 but after the victory at Adrianople the Byzantine nobility betrayed them and sided with their occupiers, the Crusaders. Is the word "betray" is never mentioned in Wikipedia and is that not a betrayal? Also for the Greek towns the word "liberated" is used, so why shouldn't we use it for the Bulgarian towns?--Gligan (talk) 13:56, 23 January 2008 (UTC)
- I don't think that participating in two edit wars means that I am systematically involved in them, it would be nice if you return your words. Perhaps "liberation" is a strong word indeed, I will add retake or reconquer. As for the betrayal of the Byzantines I will present sources. In fact that was my initial idea for all battles in the Bulgarian-Latin Wars but currently I don't have time to go to the library and only wrote the articles without putting citations. Now I will edit the battle of Serres again because at one point you changed the meaning. See the edition and improve it if necessary. --Gligan (talk) 18:07, 24 January 2008 (UTC)
The Byzantines did not had any strongholds in Moesia or along the Danube except for Varna at that point, so please don't change the point of the article, you are not following the logic.
Those lands were Bulgarian from the time of the First Empire, this is why the word is retaken.
And the Bulgarians took the initiative in the war from 1190, I don't understand what is your problem with that. --Gligan (talk) 21:04, 24 January 2008 (UTC)
