Hatikvah
[edit]Hi, Laszlo,
I've seen your edit in Hatikvah article about the song "Tüzed, Uram Jézus". Do you have it in mp3? it would be very interesting to hear it. Anyway, the phrase about this song should be corrected somehow, because it's most unlikely that Shmuel Cohen would listen to Christian song directly (and Smetana's work, too, btw). Maybe this song should be mentioned along with other songs with similar melodies. --Yms 16:42, 14 March 2006 (UTC)

Osorno
[edit]Hi Korossyl! Thank you for your entry on my talk page. Your article on Osorno is very timely and well-written. It is growing nicely, so it is a pleasure to contribute to it (even with a small link!) Certainly, Osorno is no strange to me (especially the subject of the article to which the link leads [[1]]). Cheers! -- Eguirald 01:14, 3 February 2007 (UTC)

Himnusz
[edit]Hi. I read your translation and I found some mistakes. Could you care to read my comment? In case I'm wrong, sorry Lelkesa 16:12, 2 March 2007 (UTC)
- As you don't seem to be interested in the topic, maybe I'll do the necessary changes. I just wanted to warn you - for I've read the discussion on the talk page of Himnusz - that you do not seem to understand the copyright policy of Wikipedia. When you uploaded your translation, you agreed to license it under the GFDL. So now anybody can change and redistribute the text. Lelkesa 14:49, 16 March 2007 (UTC)
Ok, it seems to be a good idea to change your website at first, and then the Wikipedia article. Some thoughts:
- I think that "Kunság mezein" means "on the plains of Cumania" (or "on the plains of Kunság" maybe, as there are other places in Central and Eastern Europe which are called Cumania in English), because - as I see it - "Kunság" clearly refers to the place, not the nomadic tribe (Cumans). ("The plains of the Kuns" would be "a kunok mezein" in Hungarian).
- I also think that "hő" means "hot". "Faithful" is "hű", and the word "hű" have existed in our language since the 13th century, and doesn't seem to have had other forms. (I have an etymological dictionary :) )
- Maybe "The Danube" should be used instead of "the Duna".
- There should be an English equivalent of "hajh".
Thanks for your work. Lelkesa 09:01, 18 March 2007 (UTC)
Kunság is the name of the place. Period. Theoretically it could refer to the nomadic tribe, but for them we use the word kunok. Duna should be changed to Danube. Duna is the Hungarian name of the river. In English it is called Danube. Lelkesa 15:58, 23 March 2007 (UTC)
re: grammar on Irreducible complexity
[edit]I see your point now. I'm not sure how to fix it, though, since we are constrained by Behe's actual quote. He didn't say "applying to". We could fix it by not relying on the exact quote but that has been a controversial section and I'm reluctant to upset the compromise. We could fix it by changing the front of the sentence to "An "irreducibly complex system" was originally defined by Behe as..." but that also bends what was actually said.
I'm not sure how to proceed. Do you have a copy of Behe's text handy? Can we go straight to his usage and avoid putting our own interpretation on the matter? Thanks. Rossami (talk) 20:34, 16 March 2007 (UTC)

Historical Jesus
[edit]You recently reverted one of my changes to the article on the Ebionites, but did not offer an edit summary. I think my summary explained the reason for my edit pretty clearly, but no argument was made against it. I see that a whole slew of edits have not been summarized or defended, some quite substantial (e.g., changing "c. 23" to "in 23"). Edit summaries, I believe, would be helpful for the article's other editors. Korossyl 22:20, 9 July 2007 (UTC)
- Many of my edits were, in my mind, so minor that I didn't feel a need to add a summary. However, you are absolutely correct that they would be helpful and will try my best to always include them. On the issue of the historical Jesus, the scholars mentioned in this article make a point of arguing that the Ebionites were more faithful to the teaching of the historical Jesus (these scholars have reconstructed) rather than the Jesus of the Bible. --Loremaster 22:27, 9 July 2007 (UTC)

Hugh O'Connor Memorial Act:
[edit]The article states:
- In April 1997 the Florida Senate unanimously passed The Hugh O'Connor Memorial Act, which allows people injured by drug dealers to sue for damages."
This is immediately preceded by:
- After Hugh's death, O'Connor successfully lobbied to get the State of California to pass legislation that allows family members of an addicted person or anyone injured by a drug dealer's actions, including employers, to sue for reimbursement for medical treatment and rehabilitation costs. The law, known as the Drug Dealer Civil Liability Act in California, went into effect in 1997.
- Eleven other states followed with similar legislation, which has been referred to as The Hugh O'Connor Memorial Law.
The first sentence quoted above, then, is redundant. No? Korossyl (talk) 04:37, 5 September 2008 (UTC)
- Absolutely! Thanks, --Jazzeur (talk) 15:36, 5 September 2008 (UTC)
EWTN edits
[edit]Help me out then, would you please? I freely admit to being a bit of a Wiki novice.
My motivation is not Anti-Catholic. I am Catholic and not a self-hating kind either. But if you watched it, “The World Over” is more biased, in terms of its guests, than the “700 Club”. Saying “generally” in this context is simply not accurate. I understand the importance of being neutral but not to the point that it is misleading.
If you can think of a way to phrase it better, please, please do.
SacredSpermWhale (talk) 05:50, 29 October 2008 (UTC)
- Ok. I sort of understand what you are saying and I sort of agree with you.
- I see where I might have made a mistake in my editing. I wasn’t trying to say the entire network is far right in all aspects. Taking all of it’s stances into account, as long as the SSPXII is around, EWTN isn’t far right theologically
- My problem is that “The World Over” is so biased in it’s secular politics, using the word “generally” before the word “conservative” in the context of secular politics is misleading in my opinion. While I’m not Anti-Catholic or even Anti-EWTN, I could be called Anti-“The World Over”. EWTN’s place in Catholic media is overwhelming here in the US, which isn’t normally a bad thing. But “The World Over” won’t even have a Pro-Life Democratic politician on the program. As I said “The 700 Club” seems more bi-partisan as I think they interviewed Pro-Choice non-Catholic Obama! If it was an entity onto itself, I’d wager that the IRS would be after it. Consider EWTN’s influence, I think it sends a bad message to impressionable Catholics, as my Holy Mother Church transcends vulgar party politics.
- Would the change from this: “The program is generally conservative in religious and political orientation” to “The program is conservative in its political orientation and generally conservative in its religious orientation” sound proper enough? If not, you can change it back and I promise I won’t touch it again.
- I am aware of that other anon editor causing problems here, I am not him or her. I actually already talked to “CliffC”, just to say that I wasn’t the one causing all the problems. That anon editor is actually a very bizarre person, if you look at the changes they keep trying to put in, they could very easily be considered both Pro-EWTN and Anti-EWTN. New as I am, that makes no sense whatsoever.
- Thank you very much for being so polite.

[edit]Dear Korossyl. Croatia wasn't a kingdom. It was conquered by Hungary and it became a provincve. All of the croatian history articles were written here by croatian nationalists. I don't want to harm you, but please don't edit about it, if you don't know anything about it. And i removed this link, beacuse it was written by nationalists as well. By. Toroko (talk) 09:24, 20 May 2009 (UTC)
I see you are interested in the hungarian history, so i would like to ask you don't do that, and please rather speak with those who can't bear their history and thanks to it fake it.Toroko (talk) 09:35, 20 May 2009 (UTC)
Croatia wasn't a kingdom, it is only a croatian nationalistic nonsense. They claim is based on a writing, called Pacta Conventa. However, pacta conventa is a forgery. Hungarian historians proved it, and proved that there was no union and croatia wasn't a kingdom. If you state that it was, you support a nationalistic anti-hungarian view. "Mert az, hogy Horvátország hóditott tartománya volt a magyar királynak nem szenved kétséget és csak is abban a korban lehetett ezt kérdésessé tenni, melyen a nemzetiségi vágyak elöltek minden történeti érzéket." "Arra gondolni, hogy a Horvátországhoz való viszony valami personalis unio-féle lett volna, merő képtelenség, s nemcsak a kor felfogásának mond ellent, hanem még inkább a hatalmi viszonyoknak. Többé felkelésről nem is volt szó: a horvát urak, kiknek külömben is alkalmok nyilt kitüntetni magokat a magyar királyok szolgálatában, nyugodtan megmaradtak az alávetettségben" [2] This is the traditional interpretation of hungarian history. Ladislas I was only king of hungary. And don't call me vandal because it is you who vandalises the articles, you reverted my edits without any normal reason. If you always do this your edits will be reverted since you vandalise the hungarian history articles. Please read about it, I said don't edit about hungarian history if you don't know anything about it. Toroko (talk) 09:15, 21 May 2009 (UTC)
Naturally i have no problem with you, i didn't want any "attack" against you. But please don't vandalise the hungarian history aricles. Toroko (talk) 09:36, 21 May 2009 (UTC)
At the Battle of Szigetvár and at the Battle of Mohács it was the part of hungary, not a kingdom. Please correct it. Toroko (talk) 09:42, 21 May 2009 (UTC)
My english is bad. I am sorry. I mean "offend". In hungarian "harm" and "offend" means the same, i translated it to english badly. I wouldn't harm anybody of course. You misunderstood it. Toroko (talk) 11:22, 27 May 2009 (UTC)
Obsidio Szigetiana
[edit]Magyarul írom, mert kissé fárasztó lenne ezt most szép angolsággal megfogalmazni ezen a fejfájós délelőttön: barokk kori címek esetében a publikált cím egy kényes dolog, többnyire nem azon híresül el, ami forma szerint a cím, ha van egyáltalán ilyen. A Szigeti veszedelem esetében azonban nem ez a helyzet. A voltaképpeni cím az Obsidio Szigetiana (lehet, hogy ezt kéne leginkább írni), ami a címalkotás nyelvi standardjai szerint vagy megkapja a szokványos Libri előtagot birtoknak, vagy az énekek számozását utótagnak: Obsidionis Szigetianae pars prima/secunda sat.
A Szigetiana az Obsidio jelzője (mellesleg szólván utána kéne nézni a helyesírásának, mert gyanús kissé az a kortárs 'sz'), az tehát az obsidióhoz igazodik. A birtokos esetnek semmi más indoka sincs a címben, csak az, ha szerkezetben áll a cím kiegészítő elemeivel, például: Wesselényi Miklós[nak az] Összes művei. Magányos birtokos esetek nem állnak címként se publikálva, se publikálatlanul. ;) Bennó (talk) 12:18, 13 September 2009 (UTC)

Re:Croatian Literature
[edit]Hi Korossyl. Yes you are right, Opsida Sigecka was not as successful as Szigeti Veszedelem. "Opsada Sigeta" is correct (modern) name for "Siege of Sziget", and more official one. But "Opsida Sigecka" is also correct, because it was originally written like that, in one of three dialects that still exist in Croatia. Regards, Kebeta (talk) 20:22, 11 December 2009 (UTC)

Northeast megalopolis gap
[edit]Hi Korossyl...I took a second look at the MSA map and I was incorrect in that Union is part of the Hartford MSA. That would be a pretty think connection to the Worcester MSA, though. That being said, the fact still remains that the NE corner of CT is not in a MSA so I'm wondering what your thoughts on just stating that the Quiet Corner is the only gap in corridor, which is what it is known for and one of the reasons why congress designated it a National Heritage Corridor. Dbroer (talk) 19:11, 6 November 2013 (UTC)
Howdy Dbroer! I have family connections to the Quiet Corner, and I think it's worth mentioning as it does appear as a "hole" in the map of the megalopolis. It's not, however, an actual gap, as it does not prevent the MSAs from being connected. Practically speaking, one travelling from NY to Boston does not leave the megalopolitan corridor, and (usually) has no reason to pass through the QC. I think I'd be more comfortable using some language like "bypassing the Quiet Corner." What do you think? Korossyl (talk) 19:28, 6 November 2013 (UTC)

Dear Korossyl,
I see that you are a major contributor to the wiki article on the Earle Family. Thank you so much for setting up this article. I am a member of this family, descended from Ralph Earle the settler of Rhode Island. I am also a wiki author. I added a bit of structure to the article and organized the listings of Earle Family members by century.
I see that the names listed here:
- George Howard Earle IV (Navy Pilot)
- Mary Sharpless Earle
- Elisabeth Hotchkiss Ely Shedd
- George Howard Earle V (Civil Engineer)
- George Howard Earle VI (Man About Town)
That do not have citations or Wiki articles. Do you know these people? Are they still living? If so, could you add their bios as articles to Wikipedia and cite those articles? Or if that is not possible, perhaps provide a citation that shows their genealogical connection to the Earle Family. For example, if there is a published book that lists their name and lineage, or a genealogical society that documents lineage who has verified the genealogy. Or if they are listed in Pliny's book, give the page number (since there are 4,000 names in that book). I don't mind helping with this, but, since I don't even know what century these individuals were born, it is difficult for me to add the information about them.
Also, there is no citation or wiki listing for
- Ralph Earle (captain) (I believe there has been more than one over the years) and
- James Earle (painter).
It would be great to have, at the very minimum, the date of birth and death and the citation to page number in Pliny's book.
Warm regards,

Disambiguation pages- What and What Not to Include
[edit]Thank you for your edit to Lebanon (disambiguation). However, I have removed most of it, as it was unnecessary to the purpose of the page.
Disambiguation ("dab") pages aren't articles, but are navigation aids. They shouldn't include significant amounts of information beyond what it necessary for that- this belongs in the article itself.
For more information, please see WP:DABNOT.
Hope this helps, Ubcule (talk) 15:08, 22 December 2016 (UTC)
- (Copied from User talk:Ubcule); "Wow, that edit was a long time ago. Totally forgot about that. I know it was a bit unorthodox for a disambiguation page, but I remember looking into WP policies then (and now, that you mentioned it), and couldn't find anything about not including additional info, like the description or picture, that might be helpful or interesting. Since it didn't obscure the purpose or function of the disambiguation page, I didn't really see why it shouldn't be in there. Is there a policy that I missed? Korossyl (talk) 2:24 am, Today (UTC+0)"
- You're right; it's an old edit- I wouldn't normally bother, so I'm guessing I either didn't notice its age or thought the advice might still have been useful.
- No worries about not finding the info back then; I often find it hard to find policy stuff myself.
- The guidelines I mentioned above- i.e. those at WP:DABNOT, a shortcut to "What not to include"- should explain it clearly enough. Put simply, dab pages are navigational aids, not articles- we want to keep them as short and clear as possible. Anything unnecessary that bloats them out and makes them longer to get through is counter-productive.

[edit]I see you've changed BCE to BCE 6 times quoting WP:ERA. Four of those I'd agree with you, but at Göbekli Tepe BCE has been used for almost 6 years, making it the established style. It's a pretty heavily edited article and people have had a chance to revert it before but haven't. If you want to change it there, you need to comply with the guideline and start a talk page discussion. Doug Weller talk 12:05, 13 March 2017 (UTC)

I restored the article with new sources. Harizotoh9 (talk) 00:46, 17 August 2018 (UTC)
I know nothing about the game. Especially the story and gameplay. You can use the HG101 source to expand the story/gameplay sections. I don't really care that much about this game, and probably won't edit much more. There's also an extended interview with the director/writer in Untold Story of Japanese Game Developers Vol 3.

However, the image is currently not used in any articles on Wikipedia. If the image was previously in an article, please go to the article and see why it was removed. You may add it back if you think that that will be useful. However, please note that images for which a replacement could be created are not acceptable for use on Wikipedia (see our policy for non-free media).
