You just attempted to delete the Russia section.

Left-wing nationalism

On what page of The Decolonization of Quebec do the Milners claim to have actually coined the expression? -- Mathieugp (talk) 14:21, 7 December 2009 (UTC)

Talk page archiving

Hi, I noticed that MiszaBot was not correctly archiving old discussions from your talk page due to a spacing/line issue. I think that i have corrected the issue, but I'm afraid your old talk page contents for the past few months have not been archived. If you want to, you can still manually set up an archive from the page history. –BLACK FALCON (TALK) 00:05, 10 December 2009 (UTC)

Mass killings under Communist regimes

I find it ironic that after the article has had an Expert request banner, that when expert involvement was made available, that the articles' coat-tail of non-humanities area anti-communists BIT the hell out of me. The difference between editors who just happen to have political opinions of a certain sought, and people who have political opinions of a certain sought and edit on that basis is remarkable, and clear. I am also increasingly frustrated with the lack of ANI responses. (Dealing with fresh editors with stale opinions is a chore, but, at least they aren't tendentious and dishonest).

To be quite honest, that's a gutful. The differential in administrator willingness to let wild, grossly incivil, anti-encyclopedic editing run wild even when they have discretionary editing to hand; the habit of non-humanities twonks with a personal vendetta about their precious special "I experienced this" BITING humanities specialists; and, the inane repetition of cookie-cutter anti-communists with no more than a high school grade humanities education; all this has irritated me sufficiently to the point where I am not going to attend unless WP:ANI actually grows cahones, or a particular editor continues baldly in the past conduct and makes me to to Arbitration's sanction request page. I'm going back to editing minutae of comma in Featured Article citations. Fifelfoo (talk) 06:44, 10 December 2009 (UTC)

Daily Mail

I've put a "Request for Comment" on the discussion page of the above. In regards to page ownership, and a couple of Editors making far too many reverts.

I've noticed that you have had numerous (pretty decent looking) updates deleted, so thought you may be able to provide some feedback on them.

Social liberalism

As you know, I'm usually willing to defer to your greater expertise, but I don't like jargon in the lede if ordinary words will convey the same ideas to a larger audience, and "positive rights/negative rights" is jargon. When I edit mathematics articles, I try to avoid words like "derivative/integration" in the lede, because these words, though commonplace in mathematics, are apt to be misunderstood by the lay reader.

More important to me is where you disagree about the content of the lede. Have I misunderstood what "social liberalism" means? If so, I'm always open to anything that will improve the article.

I would be glad to attempt a rewrite based on what you've quoted, but even gladder to have you do a rewrite on that basis. Rick Norwood (talk) 16:10, 25 December 2009 (UTC)

What you propose for Social Liberalism sounds good to me. Rick Norwood (talk) 13:45, 31 December 2009 (UTC)
