Thank you! I am mainly active in the German wikipedia, only doing a few edits in the wikipedias of other languages. Greetings, Aspiriniks (talk) 20:55, 14 August 2010 (UTC)[reply]

I'm the reverse - with a handful of edits on DE wiki and various others where I don't understand the language. I saw you fixing some death dates, are you working on meta:Death anomalies table stuff? Ϣere SpielChequers 15:20, 15 August 2010 (UTC)[reply]

I only rarely use this, but I put recent deaths into de:Nekrolog 2010 when I find them on the pages in other languages, no matter if there is already an article existing in the German wikipedia or not, this often leads to some other user starting an article about this person.

My main field of interest is politicians, artists and scientists of Yugoslavia. A list of the 264 articles I started and the 126 articles which I esentially contributed to you can find on my German user page de:Benutzer:Aspiriniks.

That's an interesting idea, I don't think we have that here. Presumable we could use interwiki links or lack of them to get a report on the most articles that are on the most other wikis. What else do you have on DE wiki that we don't have here? Ϣere SpielChequers 20:54, 15 August 2010 (UTC)[reply]

I'm not much active in the English wikipedia, so I don't know. I only noticed, that articles on some important persons, which I wrote in German, don't exist in English, among them de:Budimir Lončar (Yugoslav minister of foreign affairs 1988-1991), and many scientists from English speaking countries, like political scientists de:Sabrina P. Ramet, de:Gordon Smith (Politologe), de:Nigel Young; psychologist de:Eckhard Hess; biologists de:Terence Ingold, de:Paul S. Martin; and physician de:Barrie Jones (Mediziner). -- Aspiriniks (talk) 21:20, 15 August 2010 (UTC)[reply]

de.Wikipedia.Kurier topic on pro-fascist bias on Croatian Wikipedia[edit]

Thanks for the question, I'll forward it on to the Facebook page on opposing the pro-fascist bias of the Croatian Wikipedia. – Miranche^T C 16:30, 16 September 2013 (UTC)[reply]

Thank you for the explanation & offer for more info. I'll have to decline it, though -- I'm aware there are several sides to this story, but my knowledge of German language & of the German Wikipedia community is not sufficient for me to arrive to competent opinions of edit wars there, and my involvement on Meta and hr.wiki now also leaves me zero time to do so. – Miranche^T C 15:21, 5 October 2013 (UTC)[reply]
