TrumpetOoo if you have braces that might take a lot of the fun away. Trust me when I got braces(get em off next Feb) the inside of my lips started bleeding almost everytime i played and it wasnt pleasant. One of the reasons why i switched to guitar. Jobe6 01:46, July 27, 2005 (UTC)
Cool cause some person wants to delete these Category:User instruments because he thinks its useless. You might wanna add Template:User trumpet-1 to your user page.
Thank you :)Hi Ilyanep, thank you for welcoming me! --Noosfractal 23:47, 28 July 2005 (UTC)
Hi, thanks for the URL fix. I don't think it would be too long either, the comments get rather lengthy, and having headings to goto to vote, would be much quicker. ∞Who?¿? 00:43, 29 July 2005 (UTC)
Sandbox gnomeHola llyanep!! Que tal? Todo pasa bien? Escribes en el wikipedia espanyol todavia?
Could I ask your advice? This may or may not refer to wikipedia but your metaphorical home as well. Let us say a kid wants to play in sandbox but is polite and does not break any rules. I expect the kid to grow up eventually in the mean time, he spends his time in almost entirely in the Sandbox. However he went to far and accidentally destroyed part of it. He doesn't contribute anything though and so the anti-fun bullies (trolls) totally ban him forever from the premises. Is this Ok? Could I ask your comment? Please unban User:DrZoidberg. Best regards , --Jondel 00:50, 29 July 2005 (UTC) Already registeredYou sent me a message about registering... I'm 66.66.84.something. Just wanted to tell you I was already registered, but didn't bother signing in unless I needed to upload an image. I didn't realize the benefits of actually being signed in.
Neutral Wikipedia?Dear Wikipedia administrator I am writting you about the issue of Macedonia, Republic of Macedonia, Macedonian Slavs (like Wikipedia calls the Macedonians) and the problem between Macedonia and Greece about the term Macedonia. I am aware that this issue is largely discussed here, at Wikipedia, and Wikipedia claims that it is trying to take a neutral side. But, that is not the case. Wikipedia is everything except neutral in this question. In the following lines I will explain you why. From the text in Wikipedia most of the people will conclude that Macedonian nation appeared during the World War 2 and Tito was the one who 'invented' us. The family of my wife (she is Mexican) read this and asked me is it truth. That was actually the first time I read what Wikipedia says about my nation, which was a direct reason for my reaction. My grandfather is born in 1911th. Yesterday I had a talk with him. He took a part in the strugle for independence since 1925th and he took a part in the 2nd world war. He is alive and personal prove that Wikipedia is full of bullshit and lies about our origin. He spent half of his life proving and fighting for that. He was shot 3 times, all 3 from the Bulgarians who wanted to ocupy Macedonia in the Balkan wars and in the WW1 and WW2. Just a 1 min with him will show you how many lies you suport in Wikipedia. I tried to edit some of the text few days ago, but everithing I wrote was deleted. And all I wrote were facts. Fact 1. Macedonians (or Macedonian Slavs, like ONLY Wikipedia, Greece and Cyprus calls us) is the only nation of many living in the area concentrated inside the borders of the geographical region of Macedonia. This is a pure fact, something that you can even find on the CIA web page. Can you give any fact to deny my fact? If you can not, why you erased it from Wikipedia? Fact 2. Republic of Macedonia has diplomatic relations with about 150 countries in the world. Wikipedia says that "at least 20" countries recognize Macedonia under the name Macedonia. Guess what? That number is more than 100. And this is an officially confirmed by our ministery for foreighn affairs. Fact 3. Wikipedia says that my country Contraversialy calls itself Republic of Macedonia. This is a pure example of taking a side in the problem. Why you don't say that Greece contraversialy deny us the use of the name Macedonia? If you intended to be neutral, just write that we have the naming problem with Greece, but do not call my name "contraversial"!!! Fact 4. While explaining about the antient Macedonia, its kings etc. you highly support the claim for their Greek origin. I can give you 1000s of facts that that is not truth and I beleive that some Greek guy can give you 1000s facts that those claims are truth. That was 2400 years ago and there is no chanse for us to know the real situation. We can only guess. But, when you give the Greek suported version, why you ignore the version suported by the newaged Macedonians? In this moment I can give you 10 names of internationally respected scientist supporting our theory. If you are neutral, why you ignore it? Fact 5. Wikipedia says that the Turkish Empire were calling us Bulgarians. Strange, because the Turks were recognizing the uniqueness of our nation since the moment they occupied the teritory of Macedonia. Actually, the Turkish history archives are the biggest prove of our existance, history and culture. Did anyone of you ever read anything from those archives? Even on the birth certificate of Khemal Ataturk says that he is born in Bitola, Macedonia. And his autobiography is full of memories of his childhood spend with the Macedonians. Fact 6. Wikipedia ignores the egsodus of the Macedonian people from Greece and says they were running because they were supporters of the comunists. 1/3 of the Macedonians have origin from this part of Macedonia. They were runned away from there by force and you can find many historical proves for that. Again, big part of my family has origin from there. As a matter of fact, my grand-grand father was married to a Greek woman, my grand-grand mother. But, no matter of that, his house was burned and he was forced to run away for his life and the life of his family. How dare you deny this? Do you know that even today my grand father is not allowed to visit Greece, because he was a kid when his family runned away from there? Fact 7. There are about 500 000 Macedonians that live outside Macedonia, mostly in Canada, Australia, USA, Sweden etc. At least 1/3 moved there before 1930s. If we were a product of Tito, how can you explain that even they feel of Macedonian nationality? I have a family in USA which moved there in 1927th. Their ancestors (my cousins) do not even know how to talk Macedonian well. But, they still feel Macedonian. One of them is even one of the financiers of the party of the Macedonians in Bulgaria, trying to help their strugle to keep their national identity. I repeat, first time he visited Macedonia was in 1995th, far after Tito. And his family moved in USA in 1927th, far before Tito. Fact 8. Wikipedia claims that the book of Macedonian songs by Dimitar Miladinov is actually Bulgarian. Have you maybe seen a original copy of the book, printed in Croatia? IT says clearly "Macedonian". Not to mention that the same author wrote one of the most important books in the Macedonian history "For the Macedonian issues", again printed in Croatia, where it clearly talks about the Macedonian nation and non-Bulgarian origin. All this was simply erased from the database. I didn't erase anything when editing these pages, I support the other side and I do not want to hide their facts. But why Wikipedia wants to hide our facts, which show that we are not a product of Tito's ambitions for the Aegean Sea. In Tito's time, the Yugoslav army was far superior in the region. If he wanted the Aegean Sea, he would get it very easily. Many things in Wikipedia are very offensive for the nowdays Macedonians. Wikipedia simply ignores us, gives us a new name and supports the theories of denial of our existance, culture and history. I will try to give you an example that includes with Mexico. I beleive that you know that the Maya civilisation was invaded by the Spanish kingdom. Spanish were ruling Mexico for centuries and millions of Spanish people moved at Mexican teritory. Later, after the liberation war, Mexicans formed its own country. Fact 1. Mayas were living in Mexico (same as Antique Macedonians). Fact 2. Spanish invaded them and great number of Spanish people moved to Mexico (The Slavs moved on the theritory of Macedonia and there was no reported fights or movements of people away from the teritory where the Slavs settled). Fact 3. Nowdays, everyone of the Mexican is aware that they are partly Spanish, but they still have Mayan origin (Wikipedia says that the people living in Republic of Macedonia are Slavs. When there was no reported resetling of the Antique Macedonians, how is possible they not to mix with the Slavs? It is a fact that the nowdays Macedonians are not same as the Antique Macedonians, but they certanly have a significant part of their genes. Same as I beleive that Greece has a part of their Genes, but they are definitly not their direct ancestors). Fact 4. Mexican speak Spanish. Reason: The Spanish culture was superior in that time. (The Antique Macedonians accepted the Helenic culture, including a variation of the Greek language. Reason: the Helenic culture was superior in that time. Everyone who knows at least little history will know that Hellenic and Greek are not synonims. Greek is nation, Hellenic is religion/culture. USA and England both speak English, both are mostly cristians, but they are SEPARATE nations. Aren't they? Same happens to Germany and Austria, or Serbia and Croatia, or Canada and France, or Brazil and Portugal, or the rest of Latin America and Spain) And here is a comment about the claims of the Bulgarians, that the Macedonians are actually Bulgarians. If that is truth, I am going to kill myself. Bulgarians through the history made the worst for my nation. During the strugle of the Macedonian people for independence from the Turkish empire, at the end of the 19th and begginbing of the 20th century, the Bulgarians were the ones who killed the most of our revolutionaries, including 4 members of my close family which were members of the Macedonian revolutionary organization (VMRO). Whis is not something that I was told by Tito. My grandfather (the same grandfather from above) was in fact a member of the same organization. He personaly knew many of the revolutioners that Bulgarians claim are theirs, including 2 of the leaders: Goce Delcev and Gorce Petrov. They were Macedonians and they all gave their lives for free and independent Macedonia and they had nothing to do with Bulgaria. There was a part of them who were Bulgarians inserted in the organizations, who were actually the killers of the real Macedonian revolutioners, because it was in Bulgarian interest to weaken the organization, so they could take the lead in the organization and later put Macedonia in the hands of the Bulgarians. Thanks god, they did not succeed. Wikipedia claims that VMRO was pro-Bulgarian and the revolutioners were Bulgarian fighters. You suposed to see the face of my 94 year old grandfather when I told him your claims. Neurtal Wikipedia? I do not think so. At the end I have to ask for Wikipedia NOT TO TAKE A SIDE IN THIS. I am not asking to remove the Greek and Bulgarian side of the story. But, why you ignore our claims, which are suported by many non-Greek and non-Bulgarian scientists and very largely through the web. There are just about 2-2.5 million Macedonians around the world. We do not have enought influence and strenght as Greece has, which is much more powerful and richer country than Macedonia. The Macedonian-Greek question is too hard and too complicated to solve. History can be interpreted in 1000 ways, especially on a teritory like the Balcany, where there are so many nations on so little space. Fortunately, DNA testings are getting more and more reliable and soon it will be possible to be used to acuratelly show the origin of our nations. I hope that then the denyal of me, my history, culture and existance will finaly stop. It is very disapointing that Wikipedia takes a part in all that. With all the respect, Igor Šterbinski Skopje, Macedonia is@on.net.mk

Late ReplyComo estas? Porque sabes espanyol? Es muy tarde para ser bibliotecario (Administrator) pero es que me gustaria escribir articulos mas. I wanted to write more and not administer. I had a few disputes and almost wanted to leave. Well so I'm an administrator! Life is still the same. I still fart the same way. Food doesn't taste anybetter.BTW I thought you knew latin, that's why I wrote gratias ago (thank you) . I wish I knew Ukranian and Russian. --Jondel 02:08, 11 August 2005 (UTC)

MSN MessengerHi, Ilya! Drop me an e-mail and I'll see if I can hook you up. - Lucky 6.9 22:16, 18 August 2005 (UTC) IP CheckHi there. Your name was given to me by Lucky 6.9. I recently spotted what I have great suspicion to be a couple of sockpuppets from a disruptive user. Hortio86 created a couple of articles Sigmund Hardy and Riparian State of the Colorado which have absolutely no basis in fact. I warned him of this and put the two articles up for VFD. It later came to my attention that he added references to RSC to a couple of other pages; I removed them. He put them back, as well as removed a couple of my VFD taggings. I reported him at WP:VIP and he was briefly blocked. During that time, he created User:YumaKid to stick up for himself on VFD pages. It later came to my attention that he's been doing the same thing (but with edits) with User:ViteroHoratio. To fully confirm these suspicions, it's necessary to check and see if the IP addresses for these three users match. I was informed that only Bureaucrats have the power to do that. Therefore, I'd appreciate it if you would review the contribs of those users and, if you feel that I'm right, run a check on their IPs. Thanks! Soltak 20:25, 19 August 2005 (UTC)
Well, that's certainly a proposal that I'd be willing to support. Is there any other course of action to "prove" the sockpuppets? (The user sort of admitted to the use of sockpuppets here. In any event, thanks for responding. Soltak 21:35, 19 August 2005 (UTC)
Hello! By "wikify" I meant (in part) adding a category and a stub. I can do it myself, but someone who knows more about it would be more likely to get it right. As for the film reference — I'd never heard of band camp, and I've never seen American Pie, but I suspect that most people (outside the U.S., at least, and probably many in it) do know about band camps only via the film. --Mel Etitis (Μελ Ετητης) 08:18, 20 August 2005 (UTC) NowCommonsIf you do decide to undertake the (thankless) NowCommons deletion, make sure to check that the proper attribution and image page have both been copied to commons correctly. I did a few but got so annoyed at the poor compliance (which risks making the commons image a copyvio, by breaking the GFDL's attribution clause) that I quit before "bad Finlay" had words with the offenders. -- Finlay McWalter | Talk 20:32, August 21, 2005 (UTC)

Who are they ??????Hello Ilyanep, Im Moe Epsilon. I have contacted you about a mysterious message. It involves you in someway. This matter started when I recived a mysterious message on my talk page, I have since archived it. Click here to read it. It was written by I sterbinski which apparently is an alias for these 7 people named Aleksandar, Biljana, Asparuh, Christos, Valjon, Michael and Ana Luiza. This next part is wierd so bear with me. After reading this message I tried to find out who these people were and why they had contacted me. I tried www.google.com and typed in thier names to no results. The next thing I googled was "I sterbinski" which brought up the results for the full name "Igor Šterbinski". It was linked to your talk page. That is why I have contacted you. I belive in your previous messages, message #9, you have talked to them. Do you know any possible information as to why they have contacted me. Please respond. PS. He (I sterbinski) was also in contact with other random people, I was almost one the last people they came in contact with. The last being Toby Bartels. Click here to see the users and other places they contacted with the same wierd message. Jtkiefer's RFAThanks for your support on my RFA.

PokeHello. I just want to say that I think it is great when young people get involved in serious projects early in life. For the record, this edit summary is what piqued my curiousity and led me to realize we have a 13-year-old burueacrat. Neat. As someone that decided high school was too much bother and went to college at 16, it is nice to see that the next generation is also doing more than hanging out in malls and listening to loud music. Cheers. Dragons flight 23:32, August 30, 2005 (UTC) Chicago meetupIlyanep - I replied to your comment on Jimbo's talk page, but I figured I should repeat it here in case you didn't notice: a few Chicagoans (and temporary ones like myself) have expressed interest in a meetup (see User talk:Kelly Martin#Chicago meetup). I could probably secure a conference room or somesuch at the U of Chicago if the need arose. — Dan | Talk 03:32, 31 August 2005 (UTC)
Wikipedia:Bureaucrats' noticeboardIlyanep, I have created a new project page at Wikipedia:Bureaucrats' noticeboard, and Secretondon suggested that I tell my fellow bureaucrats about it. It's designed as a forum where users with bureaucrat rights can discuss difficult situations, either beforehand (for advice about what to do) or after taking action (for review and feedback). It's similar to another page I created, which is starting to catch on (e.g., Jimbo used it this August): Wikipedia:account suspensions, which is not for 3RR or simple vandalism but for close calls and disputed blocks. Please take a look at these new project pages and give some feedback. Good idea? Bad? Needs improvement? --Uncle Ed 12:26, September 1, 2005 (UTC)
