Ich denke am vielversprechendsten wäre es vorerst nur die FRG/GER Fusion zu unterstützenden.
Wenn ich mir die zurückliegenden Versuche anschaue hier einen Konsens zu erlangen, denke ich, dass hier die Logik am meisten überzeugt. Wäre schön wenn Du die Variante unterstützen könntest. Es sieht so aus als wenn hier langer Atem und konsequentes Argumentieren notwendig wäre. Cheers ] (]) 22:43, 23 February 2010 (UTC)
: Langer Atem und konsequentes Argumentieren reicht nicht wenn einige Leute ihre Meinung durchdrücken wollen, oder gar , während die schweigende Mehrheit schweigt und schweigt und schweigt ... Es wird wohl vonnöten sein, das Thema "Westdeutschland gibt es seit 1990 nicht mehr, und Deutschland gab es zwischen 1945 und 1990 nicht" mal grundsätzlich klären zu lassen, in einem RfC oder so. Aber da werden nur wenige konstruktiv mitmachen, dafür aber viele der POV-Ritter auftauchen. -- ] ]  16:32, 21 March 2010 (UTC)

:So that you know what is going on, the template you filled out is the start of a community discussion, which will take place on the Administrator's noticeboard. This discussion will examine the situation that led to this block, and determine if it should be lifted or (if it takes too long, which in this case is quite possible) noted in your block log as improper. If you have further comments to make in regards to this discussion, post them here, and they will be transferred over to AN by another editor. This procedure is required for Arbitration Enforcement blocks, as these are made under the authority of the Arbitration Committee, and cannot be unilaterally undone by any single administrator, only with the written consent of the Committee or a community consensus. ] <sup>(]/]/])</sup> 03:32, 18 March 2010 (UTC)

: Ncmvocalist, I appreciate your effort with this proposal, and your input at the now closed ANI discussion. Actually, me staying away from the article on ] (and related ones) might have benefits for me, as the three latest blocks of me were related to it - or rather to others having rather odd ideas about it, and me getting punished for not swallowing them with a smile. As for the question: Ncmvocalist, may I ask you if you would accept to avoid editing your home country article and talk page in exchange for an unrelated foreigner doing the same? --&nbsp;]&nbsp;]&nbsp; 22:21, 19 March 2010 (UTC)

::I'd give such an area a break even if the other side continues to edit the article; an agreement of this sort is more of a rare luxury than something that commonly happens on-wiki. Staying away from the area you are most passionate about can be really useful, and I also think it would be beneficial for each individual. You may of course disagree, and you're not being forced to sign the agreement, but it's there...for now anyway. Do have a think about it. Regards, ] (]) 09:49, 20 March 2010 (UTC)

::: It's not beneficial for Misplaced Pages if well-informed editors stay away from an article, and outsiders can establish their POV as they please. One of the biggest problems of Misplaced Pages is that the "civility" of the talk among editors is held in much higher esteem than the reliability of the actual content they add or remove. Editors who can not win a content dispute can still succeed by provoking opponents, and by finding a sympathetic admin who edit restricts or blocks opponents. Seen it many times, almost exclusively on the receiving end. Reasonable mainly non-passionate editors are driven away, and highly motivated POV warriors (like ]) remain (). So I simply could give up on Misplaced Pages, too. Or maybe I should only edit articles others ''are most passionate about'', applying some needles and pins there with cold blood, until the blood of an editor who actually cares about the topic starts boiling? --&nbsp;]&nbsp;]&nbsp; 17:06, 21 March 2010 (UTC)

Hi Matthead, ich habe gesehen, dass du das Template:PGDA erstellt hast. Für die Open Library wurde das Template:OL von einem Benutzer angelegt, der leider nicht mehr aktiv ist. Hast du eine Idee, wie man die Vorlage verbessern kann? Deine gefällt mir wesentlich besser. Gruß --Kolja21 (talk) 03:40, 30 March 2010 (UTC)

Universal Cyclopaedia and Atlas

Thank you for creating an article about this important encyclopedia.

Apparently you did not like my changes.

1. What did you mean by "You can not make a copy&paste move"? I did it, so you must mean that my procedure violated some guideline. What is the preferred way of accomplishing the switch between 2 pages? This is a question about procedure, not about whether or not a switch between 2 pages is the right thing to do.

2. The article Universal Cyclopædia & Atlas includes material about Appletons' Cyclopædia of American Biography. The two works are unrelated. Do you object to removing the irrelevant material about the latter work?

3. Why do you not want Universal Cyclopædia & Atlas redirected to Universal Cyclopaedia and Atlas? The latter is the title printed on the actual work, and I don't see why saving 2 characters by replacing "and" with "&" would be your preference.

4. Is there an online edition of the "1902 edition" that "is now in the public domain"? I would be grateful if you could provide a link.

I found some websites where "Universal Cyclopaedia and Atlas" was confused with Appletons' Cyclopædia of American Biography. I suspect the date 1902 comes from the work on American biography, since "Universal Cyclopædia and Atlas" editions are 1900, 1901, 1903, and 1905.

I found "JOHNSON'S UNIVERSAL CYCLOPEDIA" (1898) at: http://www.archive.org/stream/johnsonsunivers01pubgoog/johnsonsunivers01pubgoog_djvu.txt

I am not seeking a battle, I just want to understand your reasons for undoing my changes.

I'll watch this page for your response.

Well, please see Help:Moving a page for the guideline. It is explained there why copying/pasting is not the proper thing to do. As for the content, I can't remember details, so please fix it. -- Matthead  Discuß   01:31, 26 April 2010 (UTC)
Thank you for the quick reply. I shall read the guideline and fix the details. Xophist (talk) 04:18, 26 April 2010 (UTC)
You know what Matthead? I'm going to do nothing and leave the inaccuracies on your page. The guideline is the biggest load of bureaucratic bullshit I've seen in a long time. Guess I'm not cut out for this type of picayune nonsense. Thanks anyway. Xophist (talk) 04:27, 26 April 2010 (UTC)
