User talk:Mzajac/2021
Hello looking for input. I saw your work on the Holodomor genocide question pageHello Mzajac, I came across this page Collaboration in German-occupied Ukraine and It looks like there are no pages at all. On the English wiki talking about all the Ukraine's who fought the Nazis and tried to resist them, I was thinking about making a page called Ukrainian resistance to Nazism. What do you think about this project I want to do as somebody who knows the history of Ukrainian?Thelostone41 (talk) 21:49, 3 February 2021 (UTC)

An automated process has detected that when you recently edited List of adjectivals and demonyms for subcontinental regions, you added a link pointing to the disambiguation page Rus.

Talk:Old East SlavicHi, can you help with reaching a consensus on Old East Slavic? Please read this talk page. We also kind of reached a consensus on that. Thanks!--Kram333r (talk) 11:26, 31 March 2021 (UTC) Please remove the name of the country in RussianThis is nonsense! In Ukraine, there is only one official language - Ukrainian, so the name should be duplicated ONLY in Ukrainian!!!!! https://en.m.wikipedia.org/wiki/Ukraine Yaroslav Dolishniak (talk) 22:12, 7 April 2021 (UTC)

On topRe, 'Which reliable sources say “on top” doesn’t refer to sex unless it’s preceded by “woman,” and then it transforms into a “coherent encyclopedic topic”? Sounds like balderdash.' [1] – You've completely misunderstood Crossroads's argument. It is that "on top" as a phrase that could refer to various sexual situations/practices is not an encyclopedic topic. It's "not a thing", as the kids say today. "Woman on top" is a stock phrase with a clear referent, a subject about which many sources have been written. "On top" as a phrase in reference to sex[uality], regardless of which party is doing what and who is what sex/gender, does not qualify. By way of a direct (noun-preposition-object) analogy, "clerk of court" (also "clerk of the court" or "clerk to the court", depending on jurisdiction) is a real legal term-of-art, and is an encyclopedic topic. Just "of court" or "of the court" or "to the court" by itself is not (and yes, it does refer to other legal things, such as officer of the court, so the analogy is even more direct than you might think). It's possible that "man on top" and some other "[someone/something] on top" phrases exist in reference to sex, and that they might have sufficient RS coverage to be article here, but they are not all to be glommed together as "On top (sex)" as if they're all the same thing. That's novel synthesis to suit some editor's idea about "how things should be" or "how English should work". And yes, it absolutely is motivated by WP:GREATWRONGS / WP:ADVOCACY PoV-pushing activism about the same gender and sexuality stuff that is so constantly a source of dispute on this site. Speaking of which, if you are going to get involved in such discussions, you need to know just how controversial they are and that unusual limits apply to them on WP:  This is a standard message to notify contributors about an administrative ruling in effect.

The article is Petro Mukha and the dispute is about whether the Mukha Rebellion was also in Bukovina (apart from Galicia) or not and whether it had help from Moldavian peasants and Stephen the Great. The other party of the dispute has cited two sources from the Internet Encyclopedia of Ukraine but they contradict each other, Mukha rebellion says the rebellion was in Galicia with Moldavian support while Bukovyna says the rebellion was against Moldavia in Bukovina and Poland in Galicia and makes no mention of Moldavian support given to Mukha. I've found sources that may give a better insight but none of us speak Ukrainian, so I was hoping you could help us out. In case you're interested, the discussion is here and the sources I've found are these: [2], [3] (pp. 168–174) and [4] (pp. 106–122). Super Ψ Dro 19:49, 30 June 2021 (UTC)

DMySon (talk) 05:14, 22 August 2021 (UTC)Siebert and KingThere's an ongoing Wikipedia:Dispute_resolution_noticeboard#Mass_killings_under_communist_regimes that involves the same two users that are now trying to rewrite [[Denial of the Holodomor], and I would love you to take part in it. Cloud200 (talk) 06:44, 5 November 2021 (UTC) Holodomor denial sourcesSince you are an admin and a highly experienced user, I find this your edit highly unacceptable. The first reference just provides no definition of denial of Holodomor, but is cites Chertok's article in the Euromaidan press, which fails WP:V, because it is a dead link. The second source (Dobczansky) just says that library of Congress set a new category (for works that discuss diminution of scale and significance of Ukrainian Famine of 1932-33 or the assertion that it did not occur), so that is not an opinion of that author. Finally the third source (the Library of Congress page) contains the references to ... the Wikipedia page on Holodomor denial as the closest page, and it verbatim reproduces the text from Wikipedia article. It seems we are dealing with a purely Citogenesis event. It is sad that such an experienced user made such a mistake. By having said that, I agree that denial of Holodomor is a negative phenomenon that must be condemned by all available means. However, to say that the discussion of its scale and significance falls under a category of "denialism" is incorrect, because that statement is not found in reliable sources, and because the debates about the nature of Holodomor (for example discussion of the Holodomor genocide question) and on its impact are in progress now, which makes Holodomor different from the Holocaust (indeed, in contrast to the former, the latter had been studied in details, so any attempt to adjust the number of victims, to the lower side, or to question its impact is a true Holocaust denial; in contrast, our knowledge about Holodomor is currently more incomplete and fragentary, so the discussion of figures or impact is by no means a denial). I suggest you to self-revert, otherwise I am going to add this case to the Wikipedia:List of citogenesis incidents.--Paul Siebert (talk) 00:50, 8 November 2021 (UTC)

The fact was ... that the Ukrainian Holodomor Memorial Day (commemoration pictured), commemorating the victims of the 1932–33 famine, is also observed in Canada? The nomination discussion and review may be seen at Template:Did you know nominations/Holodomor Memorial Day. You are welcome to check how many pageviews the nominated article or articles got while on the front page (here's how, Holodomor Memorial Day), and if they received a combined total of at least 416.7 views per hour (i.e., 5,000 views in 12 hours or 10,000 in 24), the hook may be added to the statistics page. Finally, if you know of an interesting fact from another recently created article, then please feel free to suggest it on the Did you know talk page. — Amakuru (talk) 13:18, 11 December 2021 (UTC) Kerch StraitHello, I saw you recently made a couple of changes to the Kerch strait section of Russia-Ukraine relations. Whilst I understand your doubts over the reliability over the TASS's reporting, all sources cite the FSB, and the TASS was merely a medium through which I could see what the FSB said (as this was a Russian affair, naturally the FSB would be involved). As to what law, Kerch–Yenikale Canal states that since the annexation of Crimea Russia has full control over the canal. Which specific law? I cannot read Russian unfortunately, so that is beyond my capabilities. I hope this helps & I am open to advice for future edits. Obama gaming (talk) 08:00, 16 December 2021 (UTC)
Understood, I will amend it in a couple of hours. Obama gaming (talk) 17:06, 16 December 2021 (UTC) Putin drove a taxiI considered saying he claimed this, but I'm guessing that wouldn't be any better. It's unfortunate there was no clear date, and I probably put the information too early, but it didn't seem to fit anywhere else. Where he quit one job before starting another, if it can be worded that way, it seemed best. I wasn't sure it would be accepted, but it's always good to try when sources at least look good.— Vchimpanzee • talk • contributions • 22:12, 19 December 2021 (UTC)
