Trolls, Nationalist Bigots edit

If I may offer some personal advice, when it comes to trolls and nationalist bigots, don't keep replying or arguing with them. Its like wrestling a pig in mud, you get covered in s**t and the pig enjoys it. Your best bet is to simply ignore them. Trust me I learned this the hard way.

Man edit

Instead of fighting for a few words there in FIFA Club World Cup you better edit something about it or about Intercontinental Cup (football) - have a look on Intercontinental Cup firsts editions, there are no line ups, why if you help a bit and complete those editions ?--Alexiulian25 (talk) 23:44, 25 December 2015 (UTC)Reply

And add references here please : List of FIFA Club World Cup finals - in the table of finals.--Alexiulian25 (talk) 23:50, 25 December 2015 (UTC)Reply

@Alexiulian25: The article in the version of the IP said: [The Club World Cup] is widely regarded as the most distinguished club level trophy in South America and the rest of the world. Is this, according to you, a correct information? I guess, you as a European football fan, would strongly disagree. So why should we let the IP write that into the article? --Mai-Sachme (talk) 18:53, 26 December 2015 (UTC)Reply
You are right ! but other many pages are almost empty, do you want help to create ?--Alexiulian25 (talk) 20:34, 26 December 2015 (UTC)Reply
Sorry, but I don't have any sources. --Mai-Sachme (talk) 23:57, 26 December 2015 (UTC)Reply
Sources : [1] for 1960 [2] for 1961. If you go on Spanish Wikipedia same artcile you will find sources ! On spanish Wikipedia there are many many details, on English is almost empty. (the first editions).--Alexiulian25 (talk) 08:10, 27 December 2015 (UTC)Reply

Historical mistake edit

I'm not sure, threads are made on the sources, and sources in the Italian language you can consult Trentino attribute the name to the historic subdivision before the integration of the Italian state in the entity territory, from the Kingdom of Italy to the Italian Republic. given that Wikipedia can be written although now the territory of Prussia is mainly in Poland, I think it is not to be confused historical names and official names, I repeat, in the Trentino corporate website is possibly used as a synonym in the spoken Italian language and that Italian language appears heavy syntactically repeat the same term. I hope you can understand, unfortunately my English is not so good to be able to hold a conversation.--Threecharlie (talk) 08:36, 27 March 2016 (UTC)Reply

Please, see it:Trentino (disambigua).--Threecharlie (talk) 12:18, 27 March 2016 (UTC)Reply
Sorry, I don't understand what you are trying to tell me. Trentino and (autonomous) province of Trento are synonyms, no doubt about that. In my view, it remains questionable to label "Trentino" as "unofficial" and also undue to stress that in the first sentence of the article. --Mai-Sachme (talk) 19:00, 27 March 2016 (UTC)Reply

Apology edit

Yes, you're right, I probably read to much into your comment. Please keep in mind, though, that sarcasm is never a good strategy even when we'd like to use it. I readily admit I've forgotten that rule myself at times. Jeppiz (talk) 11:23, 6 June 2016 (UTC)Reply

Re: Sëlva edit

Hi Mai-Sachme -

I did wonder about this, and agree with your reasoning. The only reason I suggested it as a merge is that the creator of Selva (Grigno) had made a bungled attempt at redirecting it to the Sëlva article. If the person who made the page thought it was the same place, then perhaps their article had simply been misnamed. Grutness...wha? 00:48, 7 March 2018 (UTC)Reply

Oh, I see, very strange. The English article seems to be a translation of the Italian one. --Mai-Sachme (talk) 07:05, 7 March 2018 (UTC)Reply

Merano, Italy edit

No bad vibes or anything of that sort, but Merano is Cfb (oceanic/subtropical highland) under Köppen's system (The one ubiquitously used across Wikipedia), since the minimum mean in January is definitely above the 0/-3 degrees celsius threshold for continental climates and the maximum mean in July is just below the 22 degrees celsius threshold for subtropical climates. Syphenix (talk) 08:26, 3 September 2019 (UTC)Reply

@Syphenix: No, really no bad vibes :-), but I also had literature in my hands that classified all of South Tyrol as having a marked continental climate. I don't know anything about köppen's system, but according to our very own article a Cfb requires no significant precipitation difference between seasons, which is absolutely not true for Meran and South Tyrol in general. Here are all the data available (just look for the Meran/Gratsch weather station), the precipitation means for December-January-February never exceeded 40 mm over the last decade, while the means for June-July-August are around the 100 mm mark. I'd call a 150 % precipitation difference between seasons quite significant. --Mai-Sachme (talk) 09:08, 3 September 2019 (UTC)Reply
Well, about the seasonal precipitation thing, the Köppen system has a strict entry bar for dry-winter climates, of which Merano has an influence of. In the system, the wettest summer month must me exactly or more than 10 times wetter than the wettest winter month, so even in climates like Rosario and Maseru, the climates are not considered dry-winter, despite their strong dry-winter characteristics.

Important Notices edit

This is a standard message to notify contributors about an administrative ruling in effect. It does not imply that there are any issues with your contributions to date.

You have shown interest in post-1932 politics of the United States and closely related people. Due to past disruption in this topic area, a more stringent set of rules called discretionary sanctions is in effect. Any administrator may impose sanctions on editors who do not strictly follow Wikipedia's policies, or the page-specific restrictions, when making edits related to the topic.

For additional information, please see the guidance on discretionary sanctions and the Arbitration Committee's decision here. If you have any questions, or any doubts regarding what edits are appropriate, you are welcome to discuss them with me or any other editor.

This is a standard message to notify contributors about an administrative ruling in effect. It does not imply that there are any issues with your contributions to date.

Please carefully read this information:

A community discussion has authorised the use of general sanctions for pages related to coronavirus disease 2019 (COVID-19).
The specific details of these sanctions are described here.

Broadly, general sanctions is a system of conduct regulation designed to minimise disruption in controversial topic areas. This means uninvolved administrators can impose sanctions for edits relating to these topics that do not adhere to the purpose of Wikipedia, our standards of behaviour, or relevant policies. Administrators may impose sanctions such as editing restrictions, bans, or blocks. An editor can only be sanctioned after he or she has been made aware that general sanctions are in effect. This notification is meant to inform you that sanctions are authorised in these topic areas, which you have been editing. Before continuing to edit pages in these topic areas, please familiarise yourself with the general sanctions system. Don't hesitate to contact me or another editor if you have any questions.
