ArbCom 2019 election voter message
[edit]December 2019
[edit] Hello. This is a message to let you know that one or more of your recent contributions did not appear constructive and has been reverted. Please take some time to familiarise yourself with our policies and guidelines. You can find information about these at our welcome page which also provides further information about contributing constructively to this encyclopedia. If you only meant to make test edits, please use the sandbox for that. If you think I made a mistake, or if you have any questions, you may leave a message on my talk page. Please don't label people as communists or socialists simply because others have done so. It looks like you are on a crusade of some sort, which of course you are not.

Featuring your work on Wikipedia's front page: DYKs
[edit]Thank you for your recent articles, including Katarzyna Bratkowska, which I read with interest. When you create an extensive and well referenced article, you may want to have it featured on Wikipedia's main page in the Did You Know section. Articles included there will be read by thousands of our viewers. To do so, add your article to the list at T:TDYK. Let me know if you need help, Piotr Konieczny aka Prokonsul Piotrus| reply here 10:17, 6 December 2019 (UTC)
WikiProject assessment tags for talk pages
[edit]Thank you for your recent articles, including Katarzyna Bratkowska, which I read with interest. When you create a new article, can you add the WikiProject assessment templates to the talk of that article? See the talk page of the article I mentioned for an example of what I mean. Usually it is very simple, you just add something like {{WikiProject Keyword}} to the article's talk, with keyword replaced by the associated WikiProject (ex. if it's a biography article, you would use WikiProject Biography; if it's a United States article, you would use WikiProject United States, and so on). You do not have to rate the article if you do not want to, others will do it eventually. Those templates are very useful, as they bring the articles to a WikiProject attention, and allow them to start tracking the articles through Wikipedia:Article alerts and other tools. For example, WikiProject Poland relies on such templates to generate listings such as Article Alerts, Popular Pages, Quality and Importance Matrix and the Cleanup Listing. Thanks to them, WikiProject members are more easily able to defend your work from deletion, or simply help try to improve it further. Feel free to ask me any questions if you'd like more information about using those talk page templates. Piotr Konieczny aka Prokonsul Piotrus| reply here 10:17, 6 December 2019 (UTC)

Political ideologies, anti-semitism etc.
[edit]Your knowledge about Conservatism is not very impressive. Nor is your knowledge about Liberalism. I saw an edit on the liberalism template where you had deleted all the most prominent liberal thinkers: Hayek, Mises, Popper, etc. Incredible! You have a very skewed and subjective view of political ideologies, indeed.
Also—in the 19th and 20th century, many if not most people were "anti-semite" by modern standards. And do you think left-wing nations like Soviet Union weren't anti-semite, somehow? It was not a "conservative" thing. Let me quote you a passage by the father of conservatism, Joseph de Maistre, from his work Against Rousseau:
You will see a nation of five or six million men build on the sterile rocks of Judea the most magnificent city in magnificent Asia, resist shocks that would have pulverized nations ten times more numerous, brave the torrent of centuries, the sword of conquerors, and the hate of nations, astonish the masters of the world by its resistance, survive finally all the conquering nations, and after forty centuries still show its woeful remains to the eyes of surprised observers. (1795:88)
Basically he is saying that Jews are the greatest and most magnificent people on Earth.
One of the most prominent conservatives in the United Kingdom was a Jew—Benjamin Disraeli.
In the world's leading conservative nation, the United States, it is a well known fact that Right-Wingers support Israel. In my country Sweden it is the same thing, where left-wingers and left-voting muslims hate Israel and Jews.
Get your facts straight, please. Trakking (talk) 18:16, 23 January 2023 (UTC)
