1930 World Cup
Please can you comment on on the talk page before making any more changes about the 3rd/4th place issue. To list Yugoslavia as 3rd in a section entitled "FIFA retrospective ranking" makes no sense when FIFA ranks Yugoslavia 4th.
Oldelpaso (

I suppose what I'd be most interested in is any material that's not covered in the article already. For instance, a source currently cited in the article says there was no 3rd/4th match because Yugoslavia were upset with the refereeing in their semi-final. Is this what the Politika piece says? If it says something different, than that would be useful to have.

Re: Ne menjaj bez razloga
Ne znam o cemu pricas, ja nisam obrisao nijedan kljucni deo tvojih izmena. Uklonio sam samo visak teksta, za koji smatram da tabelu nepotrebno cini duzom (i ima gramatickih gresaka), i razdvojio Titov period na mestu narodnog komesara NKOJ-a od perioda kada je bio prvi posleratni ministar odbrane. Takodje, jedan od datuma u tvojoj izmeni je pogresan... Glavna izmena, general Borislav Ristic kao naslednik Mihailovica na mestu ministra, je potpuno netaknuta. Na kraju, reci cu da vracam moje izmene od pre par minuta, i ne preporucujem ti da nastupas toliko osorno i ocenjujes sta ja znam a sta ne znam. Sve najbolje! --
Sundostund (

Osorno je kada neko daje sebi za pravo da komentarise sta neko zna, a sta ne zna... Dodatak u tabeli o periodu upraznjenog mesta ministra nije nikakav problem, to cu licno staviti ponovo. Nisam znao da to smatras za jednu od kljucnih izmena, ali u redu. Dalje, Titova komesarska uprava nije imala legitimitet do 1944 i bas zato treba da bude odvojena od perioda posle 7 marta 1945 i njegovog posleratnog mandata na mestu ministra, koji jeste legitiman. Na tome moram da insistiram. --

Tacno tako - to je bilo dvovlasce, rat je bio u toku, itd tako da nema razloga da stavljamo taj period u Titov posleratni mandat. Za mene je to kljucno... Izvinjenje prihvaceno, sve je ok. Rad na Vikipediji iziskuje puno truda, i ljudima ponekad popuste zivci - to znam iz licnog iskustva :) Sve najbolje i tebi! --

Ja za Ristica do sada nisam cuo, iako dosta znam i o predratnoj kraljevskoj vojsci i o JNA, ali ako imas pouzdan podatak o njemu, ne sumnjam da je tacno... Subasic je bio predsednik Vlade, i kao takav je mandat ministra vojske de jure mogao da ponudi kome hoce, ali je smena Mihailovica de facto postala moguca tek kada je on izgubio podrsku u krugovima na zapadu, sto se desilo u toku 1944. Njegov pokret je bio daleko manje efikasan u borbi protiv Nemaca nego partizani (uz puno slucajeva otvorene kolaboracije lokalnih komandanata sa Nemcima i Italijanima), pa i ne cudi sto su zapadni saveznici izvrsili pritisak na Kralja i Subasica da se odreknu Mihailovica. Takodje, imaj u vidu da se sve to desavalo sredinom 1944, u vreme sovjetske operacije Bagration - koja je bukvalno razbila Nemce na Istocnom frontu - tada je postalo jasno da je samo pitanje meseca kada ce Sovjeti doci do Rumunije, Bugarske, i do nase zemlje. Zapadni saveznici su imali raniji dogovor sa Sovjetima po kome Jugoslavija pada u njihovu zonu uticaja, i njihov pritisak na Kralja i Subasica da se odreknu Mihailovica je samo posledica tog dogovora. --

Dobro, ti napisi clanak o Risticu, a ja cu ga prevesti i postaviti na englesku Vikipediju kad budem imao vremena... Inace, obavezno stavi reference u clanak kad ga budes pisao - ta knjiga u kojoj si video podatak da je Ristic bio ministar mora biti dostupna negde na internetu, pa tacno navedi naziv knjige, autora itd. Ako se radi o memoarima Slobodana Jovanovica, jos bolje. Za tu knjigu ti sigurno nece biti tesko da nadjes reference... I, bilo bi jako dobro ako bi negde mogao da nadjes i postavis Risticevu sliku na Commons - to bi bio dobar dodatak za spisak ministara (vecina predratnih ministara ima svoju sliku), a i vecina clanaka o generalima kraljevske vojske sadrzi i njihove slike. --

Clanak na srpskoj Vikipediji ti odlicno napreduje za sada. Kad ga zavrsis, i cim budem imao vremena, prevescu ga i postaviti na englesku Vikipediju. Sto se tice slike, bolje bi bilo da si je direktno postavio na Commons, onda bi mogla da se koristi i na engleskoj Vikipediji bez ponovnog postavljanja ovde. Ja nemam nekog preteranog iskustva sa postavljanjem slika, da budem iskren. Obicno upotrebim one koje je neko vec stavio na Commons. Inace, koliko vidim, na srpskoj Vikipediji pored Risticeve postoje slike jos nekih predratnih ministara kojih nema ovde - Mihaila Rasica, Milivoja Zecevica, Milosa Vasica... Te slike su stare, i sigurno su u javnom vlasnistvu. Ako ti nije pretesko, ti ih postavi ovde, zajedno sa Risticevom slikom, a ja cu gledati da sto pre prevedem i postavim clanak o Risticu. --
Sundostund (

Steta sto su te blokirali na Commons-u. To je samo jos jedan dokaz koliko je skakljivo sve to sa slikama. Ja se u to ne bih petljao, valjda ce ih neko vec postaviti, pa da se koriste i ovde... Odlicno, ti napisi biografije za sve ministre za koje imas podatke, a ja ih, kao i Risticevu, prevodim i postavljam ovde cim budem mogao (trenutno nemam bas vremena za to). --

Hvala sto si mi pokazao ove stranice! Tacno se vidi pritisak zapadnih saveznika na Kralja i celu strukturu vlasti u egzilu da se sto pre dogovore sa Titom i njegovim pokretom. Interesne zone su vec bile odredjene, a Jugoslavija je bila duboko u Sovjetskoj zoni, tako da sve to uopste nije neobicno... Inace, jos nisam stigao da prevedem clanak o Risticu, bio sam zauzet drugim stvarima, tako da cu to uraditi za dan-dva. I, vidim da si izmenio naziv ministarstva vojske u egzilu - i meni se cinilo da naziv treba da bude Ministar vojske, mornarice i vazduhoplovstva. --

Preveo sam
clanak o Risticu, nadam se da ces biti zadovoljan kako sam to uradio. Siguran sam da postoje neke greske, ali to ce se srediti u toku vremena. Slobodno prodji ceo clanak, ako nesto treba doraditi reci meni da to sredim ili ti to uradi, sasvim svejedno. --

Slazem se da je situacija bila totalno zamrsena, ali nisam bas siguran oko izmena koje si uradio na srpskoj Vikipediji. Mislim, najvaznija figura u strukturi Ministarstva vojske u egzilu je bio Mihailovic, i pored njega dva druga ministra (Bogoljub Ilic i Borisav Ristic). Posto je situacija toliko zamrsena, mozda je bolje pojednostaviti, izbaciti civilne zastupnike (v. d. ministra) i ostaviti samo trojicu generala (Ilica, Mihailovica i Ristica) koji i jesu bili ministri. Definitivno ne bi trebalo dodavati zastupnike na engleskoj Vikipediji i dodatno deliti listu ministara koja je i ovako kompleksna. Razmisli o tome da ipak uklonis ove izmene sa srpske Vikipedije, i da ostavis samo Ilica, Mihailovica i Ristica. --
Sundostund (

Sad sam video tvoje nove izmene na engleskoj Vikipediji, i moram da kazem da se slazem sa njima. Iako sam prvobitno mislio da bi trebalo ostaviti samo Ilica, Mihailovica i Ristica, dobro je naglasiti da su u jednom periodu vazduhoplovstvo i mornarica bili odvojeni od vojske, odnosno svrstani u drugo ministarstvo... Takodje, veoma sam zadovoljan sto nisi dodavao i civilne zastupnike na engleskoj Vikipediji, to bi zaista dodatno zakomplikovalo stvari. Ovako, tu su samo oficiri koji su bili na celu ovih razlicitih ministarstava u egzilu. Razmisli o tome da tako uradis i na srpskoj Vikipediji. Ipak bi bilo bolje navesti samo oficire koji su formalno bili ministri. --

Drago mi je sto si prihvatio moje sugestije oko civilnih zastupnika na srpskoj Vikipediji. Definitivno izgleda bolje kad su samo oficiri na listi... Inace, ja sam upravo dodao Subasica na engleskoj Vikipediji, posto on nije bio tek zastupnik vec privremeni ministar izmedju smene Mihailovica i postavljenja Ristica za ministra. Pretpostavljam da se slazes sa tom izmenom, posto vidim da si Subasica ostavio na srpskoj Vikipediji nakon sto si sklonio civilne zastupnike. I, moram da te pitam jednu stvar koja mi je jako vazna - znas li gde mogu da nadjem spisak nacelnika Generalstaba Crnogorske vojske? Vec dugo vremena hocu da napravim taj clanak na engleskoj Vikipediji (poput
vec postojeceg o Srpskim nacelnicima), ali nigde na internetu ne mogu da nadjem spisak Crnogorskih nacelnika. --

Nacelnici Generalstaba Vojske Crne Gore
Zdravo jos jednom! Evo, napravio sam clanak o crnogorskim nacelnicima -
Chief of the General Staff (Montenegro). Vec dugo vremena sam hteo da to uradim... Nije bio toliki problem naci podatke o nacelnicima posle 2006 (samo ne znam kada je sadasnji nacelnik Samardzic formalno postavljen, to nisam uspeo da saznam, samo znam da je bio v.d. od 6 Februara 2008). Ali, totalna nepoznanica su mi nacelnici pre ujedinjenja 1918, za vreme Knezevine i Kraljevine Crne Gore. Nigde na internetu nisam uspeo da nadjem podatke o tome. Jedino znam da su neki nasi generali (Bozidar Jankovic i Petar Pesic) bili nacelnici crnogorske Vrhovne komande u Prvom svetskom ratu, ali to je sve sturo i nedovoljno pa sam sekciju o nacelnicima pre 1918 ostavio upraznjenu. Bio bih ti veoma zahvalan ako pronadjes neke podatke o nacelnicima pre 1918, imas link clanka pa dodaj sve sto mislis da treba.

Getty Research Institute. Come help improve Wikipedia's coverage of LA design and architecture, and have an awesome free day at the museum -- parking will be validated for edit-a-thon participants! If you'd like to use particular books from GRI's great collection, be sure to email before 2/13 (instructions at event page).
And be sure to check out our
main meetup page, because we already have three SoCal events scheduled for early March!

The LA Wikipedia community has two events in this second half of March -- please consider attending!
First, there is a memorial edit-a-thon in honor of the prolific LA Wikipedian
Adrianne Wadewitz, which is being held downtown on March 18 (tomorrow!) from noon to 8pm as a part of the American Society for Eighteenth-Century Studies' annual conference. Please drop by to contribute your own work or teach other users how to write for Wikipedia.
Second, there will be an event at the Redondo Beach Public Library (following up on last month's session), in collaboration with the Redondo Beach Historical Society. Please join us from 10am to noon on Saturday, March 28 at the main branch of the Redondo Beach Public Library!
The Wiknic is a part of the nationwide
Great American Wiknic. We'll be grilling, getting to know each other better, and building the L.A. Wikipedia community! The event is tentatively planned for
Pan-Pacific Park (

RSVP and volunteer to bring food or drinks if possible!

Orphaned non-free image File:StarCraft II Legacy of the Void.png
Thanks for uploading File:StarCraft II Legacy of the Void.png. The image description page currently specifies that the image is non-free and may only be used on Wikipedia under a

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

This is a standard message to notify contributors about an administrative ruling in effect. It does not imply that there are any issues with your contributions to date.
You have shown interest in post-1932 politics of the United States and closely related people. Due to past disruption in this topic area, a more stringent set of rules called
discretionary sanctions is in effect. Any administrator may impose
sanctions on editors who do not strictly follow
Wikipedia's policies, or the
page-specific restrictions, when making edits related to the topic.
For additional information, please see the
guidance on discretionary sanctions and the
Arbitration Committee's decision
here. If you have any questions, or any doubts regarding what edits are appropriate, you are welcome to discuss them with me or any other editor.
Despite what the template says, there are problems with your editing so far. If you try to editwar your silliness in again, you'll be immediately blocked. See

Custom signature fix needed
Hi there! You have a custom signature set in your account preferences.
Changes to Wikipedia's software have made your current custom signature invalid.
The problem: Your signature contains a syntax error or obsolete HTML tags.
The solutions: You can reset your signature to the default, you can fix your signature, or you can do nothing.
Uncheck the box (☑︎→☐) that says "Treat the above as wiki markup."
Remove anything in the Signature: text box.
Click the blue "Save" button at the bottom of the page. (Do not click the red "Restore all default settings" button, which will reset all of your preference settings, not just the signature.)
Thanks for uploading File:Zepter-Logo.png. The image description page currently specifies that the image is non-free and may only be used on Wikipedia under a
claim of fair use. 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).
