==Counties template==

First, it's great to see you around again! The number of competent Romanian editors is always tiny, so it's good to have one more back in the ranks. Second, if I may express my disagreement on a point, I don't think we need separate articles on pre-1950 and post-1968 counties, where those share the same name. For one, the borders are often similar: Bihor, Arad, Alba, Hunedoara, Dâmboviţa, Brăila, Iaşi, Tulcea and others look basically the same now as they did then. For another, even where there were significant changes (Cluj, Mureş, Maramureş, Olt, Suceava, etc.), it seems to make more sense to add in another section describing what they looked like in 1859/1925-50 rather than do a whole new article, which would simply add in another layer of needless replication.

In practice, we're already doing something similar with Bessarabia: the articles on Bălţi, Cahul, Orhei, Soroca and Tighina counties cover, or could cover, everything before 1918, up to 1944, and 1998 to 2003, and if the counties are ever brought back, I assume the same articles would cover them as well. What say you? - [[User:Biruitorul|Biruitorul]] <small><sup>[[User talk:Biruitorul|Talk]]</sup></small> 16:34, 11 July 2011 (UTC)

:Oh, the "no Romanian villages" consensus is definitely still alive, at least for the 2 or 3 people who care about it! I've been steadily adding village names into commune articles and redirecting them to the articles. In fact, once I finish Teleorman and do Galaţi, Moldavia and Wallachia will be complete. Now that I've redirected Soloneţu Nou back where it belongs, the [[:Category:Communes and villages in Romania|remaining village articles]] are all in Transylvania, so I expect to encounter a bit more resistance there. But feel free to jump ahead of me, or at least to move [[Zimandköz]] to [[Zimandcuz]] (it's been over 90 years...).

:I'm sure you noticed the diacritics mess, which I've highlighted [[User_talk:Kotniski/Archive_7#Romanian_diacritics_2|over here]]. Kotniski has graciously been working on a bot, and I do hope that gets up and running soon, because we do need to restore order at some point.

:I must say, I breathed a sigh of relief when Băsescu's mega-counties plan was thwarted, at least for now. First because I think it's absurd&mdash;I say to bring back the 1925 counties, perhaps overlaid with Ţinuturi (and, incidentally, I was [http://www.adevarul.ro/opinii/comentarii/dinu_patriciu_-_opinii/Administratia_lui_Carol_al_II-lea_7_504619537.html not the only one] to note the fascist inspiration behind the Băsescu proposal)&mdash;rather than create a bunch of artificial entities dreamed up one day. And second, because of the absolutely huge task this would have created here. Think: every commune article rewritten and recategorized to reflect the new mega-county, every "people from X county" moved, every map redrawn, etc, etc. If they're not going to bring back the 1925 counties, what Ceauşescu gave us in 1968 isn't perfect, but at least it represents some stability and continuity. - [[User:Biruitorul|Biruitorul]] <small><sup>[[User talk:Biruitorul|Talk]]</sup></small> 15:01, 12 July 2011 (UTC)

== Peris ==

That map (and basically every map with the administrative divisions of Constanta you'll find on the Web) is plainly wrong. The ANCPI messed it up when they drew the new borders in 1989. As a result, everybody (including the County Council) is using a wrong map. This is certainly not the only error on that map (e.g. Agigea is placed inside Techirghiol, Nistoresti inside of [[Vulturu]]). Considering Peris was merged with Olteni, and Olteni remained with Independenta after the 1989 reform, I'm 80% sure its territory is still administered by Independenta. The only way to find out exactly would be asking the mayor's office (fortunately they have an e-mail address).[[User:Anonimu|Anonimu]] ([[User talk:Anonimu|talk]]) 21:07, 13 March 2012 (UTC)
:OK, if you're sure about it, I have nothing against moving the info about Periş to the [[Independenţa, Constanţa|Independenţa]] article. Regards, [[User:Mentatus|Mentatus]] ([[User talk:Mentatus#top|talk]]) 10:17, 15 March 2012 (UTC)
Nevertheless, for information only, according to the "[http://www.scribd.com/doc/53203173/Marele-Dic%C5%A3ionar-Geografic-al-Romaniei-vol-I Great Geographical Dictionary of Romania]" (1898), Armutlia was a deserted village in the Hairam-Chioi commune, i.e. [[Dumbrăveni, Constanţa|Dumbrăveni]]. Periș was afterwards rebuilt on the ruins of Armutlia. [[User:Mentatus|Mentatus]] ([[User talk:Mentatus#top|talk]]) 21:49, 20 March 2012 (UTC)
:I did try contact by e-mail the mayor's office of all the communes in the area. Only Independenta replied, and they said "''Cea mai mare parte a terenurilor satelor Peris si Cealmagea apartin comunei Independenta, judetul Constanta. Nu stiu sa va spun care sunt acestea.''" Not very helpful...[[User:Anonimu|Anonimu]] ([[User talk:Anonimu|talk]]) 22:32, 20 March 2012 (UTC)
Another info: in 1931, Periș was part of the Dumbrăveni commune, see [http://www.scribd.com/Arhivele%20Arges/d/92520610-Tablou-de-regruparea-comunelor-rurale-1931 here]. [[User:Mentatus|Mentatus]] ([[User talk:Mentatus#top|talk]]) 21:51, 5 June 2012 (UTC)

A tag has been placed on [[:Macanache]] requesting that it be speedily deleted from Wikipedia. This has been done under [[Wikipedia:Criteria for speedy deletion#A7|section A7 of the criteria for speedy deletion]], because the article appears to be about a band or musician, but it does not [[WP:CCS|credibly indicate]] how or why the subject is important or significant: that is, why an article about that subject should be included in an encyclopedia. Under the [[Wikipedia:Criteria for speedy deletion#Articles|criteria for speedy deletion]], such articles may be deleted at any time. Please read more about [[Wikipedia:Notability|what is generally accepted as notable]]. 

If you think this page should not be deleted for this reason, you may '''contest the nomination''' by [[:Macanache|visiting the page]] and clicking the button labelled "Contest this speedy deletion". This will give you the opportunity to explain why you believe the page should not be deleted. However, be aware that once a page is tagged for speedy deletion, it may be removed without delay. Please do not remove the speedy deletion tag from the page yourself, but do not hesitate to add information in line with [[Wikipedia:List of policies|Wikipedia's policies and guidelines]].

:I don't know - I will think about it, and please don't take it personally if I do take it to AfD at some point in the future. I will say that I was traveling and not really paying attention to who wrote the article. Anyway, as a general rule, I would say it's important to provide sufficient quality sources on a musician as soon as possible, simply because there are so many non-notable ones alongside the notable ones.

== Accidental rollback, Romanian Gendarmerie ==

Apologies first, but I accidentally rolledbacked your edit on the Romanian Gendarmerie article, (I'm editing on a mobile device and my fat fingers hit the wrong option) I've since rolled back my own rollback.''Italic text''

The option I wanted was to get to your talk page, to say: its no big deal but since both forces have jurdistiction over the civilian population, "which" would be an appropriate word to use, though perhaps, on second thoughts, phrased as "which have" rather than "which has". I'm thinking of "both have" as an alternative phrasing would that be clearer do you think? Regards.--[[User:KTo288|KTo288]] ([[User talk:KTo288|talk]]) 11:09, 16 March 2016 (UTC)

:Hi, no prob. I was also thinking before about using "both" as in "It is one of the two main police forces in Romania (the other being the [[Romanian Police]] - a [[civil police|civil force]]), both having jurisdiction over the civilian population." What do you think? Best regards, [[User:Mentatus|Mentatus]] ([[User talk:Mentatus#top|talk]]) 11:21, 16 March 2016 (UTC)
::Yes, that would be perfect.--[[User:KTo288|KTo288]] ([[User talk:KTo288|talk]]) 13:40, 16 March 2016 (UTC)

== March Madness 2017 ==

G'day all, please be advised that throughout March 2017 the Military history Wikiproject is running its [[Wikipedia:WikiProject Military history/March Madness 2017|March Madness drive]]. This is a backlog drive that is focused on several key areas: 

* tagging and assessing articles that fall within the project's scope
* updating the project's currently listed A-class articles to ensure their ongoing compliance with the listed criteria
* creating articles that are listed as "requested" on the project's various task force pages or other lists of missing articles.

As with past Milhist drives, there are points awarded for working on articles in the targeted areas, with barnstars being awarded at the end for different levels of achievement. 

The drive is open to all Wikipedians, not just members of the Military history project, although only work on articles that fall (broadly) within the military history scope will be considered eligible. More information can be found [[Wikipedia:WikiProject Military history/March Madness 2017|here]] for those that are interested, and  members can sign up as participants at that page also.

The drive starts at 00:01 UTC on 1 March and runs until 23:59 UTC on 31 March 2017, so please sign up now.

*It seems the Sighet story comes from [http://www.alternativaonline.ca/EugenPopescu.html this guy's memoir] - not the most reliable reference.

== 2017 Military Historian of the Year and Newcomer of the Year nominations and voting ==

As we approach the end of the year, the Military History project is looking to recognise editors who have made a real difference. Each year we do this by bestowing two awards: the [[Wikipedia:WikiProject_Military_history/Awards#"Military_historian_of_the_Year"|Military Historian of the Year]] and the [[Wikipedia:WikiProject_Military_history/Awards#"Military_history_Newcomer_of_the_Year"|Military History Newcomer of the Year]].

== User group for Military Historians ==

Greetings, 

"Military history" is one of the most important subjects when speak of sum of all human knowledge. To support contributors interested in the area over various language Wikipedias, we intend to form a user group. It also provides a platform to share the best practices between military historians, and various military related projects on Wikipedias. An initial discussion was has been done between the coordinators and members of WikiProject Military History on English Wikipedia. Now this discussion has been taken to Meta-Wiki. Contributors intrested in the area of military history are requested to share their feedback and give suggestions at [[:m:Talk:Discussion to incubate a user group for Wikipedia Military Historians|Talk:Discussion to incubate a user group for Wikipedia Military Historians]].

== April 2018 Milhist Backlog Drive ==

G'day all, please be advised that throughout April 2018 the [[Wikipedia:WikiProject Military history|Military history Wikiproject]] is running its annual backlog elimination drive. This will focus on several key areas:

* tagging and assessing articles that fall within the project's scope
* adding or improving listed resources on Milhist's task force pages
* updating the open tasks template on Milhist's task force pages
* creating articles that are listed as "requested" on the project's various lists of missing articles.

As with past Milhist drives, there are points awarded for working on articles in the targeted areas, with barnstars being awarded at the end for different levels of achievement.

The drive is open to all Wikipedians, not just members of the Military history project, although only work on articles that fall (broadly) within the scope of military history will be considered eligible. This year, the Military history project would like to extend a specific welcome to members of [[Wikipedia:WikiProject Women in Red]], and we would like to encourage all participants to consider working on helping to improve our coverage of women in the military. This is not the sole focus of the edit-a-thon, though, and there are aspects that hopefully will appeal to pretty much everyone.

The drive starts at 00:01 UTC on 1 April and runs until 23:59 UTC on 30 April 2018. Those interested in participating can sign up [[Wikipedia:WikiProject Military history/April 2018 Milhist Backlog Drive|here]].

== Re: Mircea Badea ==

The paragraph was libelous, he is seen by some, who? as an ardent supporter of PSD. Also the article's about [[Mircea Badea]], not [[Dan Voiculescu]]. --[[User:Vlad|Vlad]]|[[User talk:Vlad|->]] 15:13, 7 December 2018 (UTC)
: I was looking precisely to the article history, in order to see who added the paragraph. I could see we both helped the article during the past, for instance: https://en.wikipedia.org/w/index.php?title=Mircea_Badea&diff=next&oldid=597506475

:::: Someone already tried to alleviate the tone before: https://en.wikipedia.org/w/index.php?title=Mircea_Badea&diff=next&oldid=858598437 but I'm convinced it hasn't been added in good faith. --[[User:Vlad|Vlad]]|[[User talk:Vlad|->]] 15:32, 7 December 2018 (UTC)

==Category:Transylvanian Romanians==
Hi there. Would you be interested in discussing this category, its subcategories, and its Banat correspondent(s) to approximate some renaming that would more accurately reflect the intention? As we stand, there is nothing in that category that would prevent it holding anyone from John Hunyadi and Olahus to Gheorghe Funar, Nicolae Furdui Iancu and Sabin Gherman. Off-hand, I would propose splits along the lines of more tangible and chronologically localized political entities (as in: [[:Category:Romanians in the Voivodeship of Transylvania]], [[:Category:Romanians in the Principality of Transylvania]], [[:Category:Romanians in the Banat of Temeschwar]], [[:Category:Romanians in the Hungarian Banat (1867–1918)]] etc. etc.), and if we keep the supracts you created we use them as holders of those categories. I welcome any input, troubleshooting, and advice. [[User:Dahn|Dahn]] ([[User talk:Dahn|talk]]) 21:54, 14 February 2019 (UTC)
:Hi Dahn, what you suggest above makes sense, I'll be glad to help. [[User:Mentatus|Mentatus]] ([[User talk:Mentatus#top|talk]]) 07:32, 15 February 2019 (UTC)
::You rock. I'll get back on this this weekend. [[User:Dahn|Dahn]] ([[User talk:Dahn|talk]]) 07:55, 15 February 2019 (UTC)

Also, how would you feel about renaming the categories along the lines of: "in pre-1918 Transylvania/Banat"? That would cover all jurisdictions (not just Austro-Hungarian) and would prevent the addition of modern-day people from Transylvania/Banat, who I suppose aren't really meant to be included.

I assessed it at a B, and I actually think that it may be worth a GA nomination. I really don't have an interest in that article besides fulfilling your request, so I thought I would leave it to you.

Hello, Mentatus. It has been over six months since you last edited the [[WP:AFC|Articles for Creation]] submission or [[WP:Drafts|Draft]] page you started, "[[Draft:Dobruja Campaign|Dobruja Campaign]]". 

In accordance with our policy that Wikipedia is not for the indefinite hosting of material deemed unsuitable for the encyclopedia [[WP:mainspace|mainspace]], the draft has been nominated for deletion. If you plan on working on it further, or editing it to address the issues raised if it was declined, simply {{edit|Draft:Dobruja Campaign|edit the submission}} and remove the {{tlc|db-afc}}, {{tlc|db-draft}}, or {{tlc|db-g13}} code. 

If your submission has already been deleted by the time you get there, and you wish to retrieve it, you can request its undeletion by following the instructions at [[WP:REFUND/G13|this link]]. An administrator will, in most cases, restore the submission so you can continue to work on it.

==Historical affiliations==

Hi. A couple of observations on these, if I may:

*1) Four Romanian flags in succession (kingdom, two communist republics, post-1989) strikes me as overkill. Yes, there were different regimes, but it was the same country under international law. Personally, I would just put the current flag and call it Romania.

*2) Regarding Cluj (and most cities in Transylvania), this is somewhat tricky, because for example we don’t want to mislead readers into thinking it was effectively part of the Hungarian Soviet Republic. My suggestion would be some deliberate ambiguity about just which Hungary was theoretically in charge:

{{flag|Austria-Hungary}} 1867–1918 <small>(''de jure'' Hungary [[Treaty of Trianon|until 1920]])</small><br>
{{flag|Kingdom of Romania}} 1920–1940 <small>(''de facto'' [[Union of Transylvania with Romania|from 1918]]) </small> <br>

What say you? - [[User:Biruitorul|Biruitorul]] <small><sup>[[User talk:Biruitorul|Talk]]</sup></small> 01:14, 10 February 2021 (UTC)

:Hi, Biruitorul,

:# OK, your argument makes sense, it's not worth listing all the regimes representing the same country under international law.
:# I fully agree - listing all the statal entities who claimed ''de jure'' the respective cities is an overkill and doesn't provide for clarity.

:I'll rework all these changes accordingly. Thanks a lot for the sensible suggestions, it's always a pleasure talking to you! [[User:Mentatus|Mentatus]] ([[User talk:Mentatus#top|talk]]) 06:51, 10 February 2021 (UTC)
