Sources edit

Hi Noraskulk, I rolled back some of your edits, and you reverted them back. Many of your edits do not match with their linked sources. In this edit, I didn't find in the source that "Rhos is the self-name of the people of Rus'", but source says that "Rhos is that Greeks used from an early stage for the people of Rus". In this case, we have a Norwegian dictionary, and it doesn't say that any of the words Rossfolk, Rosskar or Rossmann has proto-Germanic roots. I didn't find a quote in the source here. Same happens with Franklin and Shepherd source here and here. This edit is controversial, I didn't find it in the sources, if it's an undeniable fact, we should have a variety of academic sources that confirm this and you can put them here. And so on. Erasing here. Additionally, some of your earlier edits have been reverted by other users for the same reason.

I reverted all these edits back. Please be more accurate and check WP:VERIFY. --AndriiDr (talk) 18:12, 27 October 2020 (UTC)Reply

  • As I understand it, you are canceling only my edits for some reason. As for the source, I wrote a year ago that it directly refers to proto-Germanic roots and not a word about the Norwegian language. At the expense of the article Rus' people, I generally go into a stupor and do not understand your actions. Noraskulk (talk) 10:06, 28 October 2020 (UTC)Reply

Here you once again return a dubious message about the marginal Professor Leo Klejn, who is not an authoritative historian, and here you remove a direct quote from Andrei Sakharov, by the way, a significant historian. I have checked this source many times, it is beyond doubt. Noraskulk (talk) 10:30, 28 October 2020 (UTC)Reply

Featuring your work on Wikipedia's front page: DYKs edit

Thank you for your recent articles, including Slavicism, 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. This can be also done through this helpful user script: User:SD0001/DYK-helper.

3RR edit

Your recent editing history at Rurik dynasty‎ shows that you are currently engaged in an edit war; that means that you are repeatedly changing content back to how you think it should be, when you have seen that other editors disagree. To resolve the content dispute, please do not revert or change the edits of others when you are reverted. Instead of reverting, please use the talk page to work toward making a version that represents consensus among editors. The best practice at this stage is to discuss, not edit-war. See the bold, revert, discuss cycle for how this is done. If discussions reach an impasse, you can then post a request for help at a relevant noticeboard or seek dispute resolution. In some cases, you may wish to request temporary page protection.

Being involved in an edit war can result in you being blocked from editing—especially if you violate the three-revert rule, which states that an editor must not perform more than three reverts on a single page within a 24-hour period. Undoing another editor's work—whether in whole or in part, whether involving the same or different material each time—counts as a revert. Also keep in mind that while violating the three-revert rule often leads to a block, you can still be blocked for edit warring—even if you do not violate the three-revert rule—should your behavior indicate that you intend to continue reverting repeatedly.

  • OK, I already had a conversation with user Ermenrich and we discussed everything. It won't happen again. Noraskulk (talk) 14:51, 24 December 2020 (UTC)Reply

I like to be right. Noraskulk (talk) 19:58, 28 July 2021 (UTC).Reply

Discretionary sanctions alert 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 Eastern Europe or the Balkans. 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.

Fringe linguistics edit

Please refrain from making edits like this. There is no such thing as "common Germano-Slavic". You appear to be trying to claim that various Germanic loanwords into Slavic come from Slavic into Germanic, and I recently discovered a case of what seems to be the misrepresentation of sources at Slavicism, namely here with a claim (contrary to the source cited) that Finnic and Slavic "share kinship" when they are from completely unrelated language families.--Ermenrich (talk) 14:14, 30 December 2020 (UTC)Reply

  • There is no mistake. In the article there is a link to the Wiktionary, and there it is clearly written - Proto-Slavic origin. Noraskulk (talk) 16:46, 1 January 2021 (UTC)Reply
Wiktionary is not a reliable source. Knyaz is a loanword into Proto-Slavic from Germanic, not "common Germano-Slavic". Please familiarize yourself with our sourcing policies at wp:RS.--Ermenrich (talk) 17:00, 1 January 2021 (UTC)Reply

January 2021 edit

  Hello. This is a message to let you know that one or more of your recent contributions, such as the edit you made to Knyaz, 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 your 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. Thank you.--Ermenrich (talk) 14:13, 2 January 2021 (UTC)Reply

Your "moot" sentence on Slavic languages does not make any sense. Please try to at least use language that is comprehensible, and don't just revert things people have removed.--Ermenrich (talk) 14:38, 2 January 2021 (UTC)Reply
Ermenrich, "no idea" is not an argument. Noraskulk (talk) 14:39, 2 January 2021 (UTC).Reply
Saying something is not an argument that misses the point of why it was removed is not an argument. Your sentence doesn't make sense as the issue is not moot.--Ermenrich (talk) 14:42, 2 January 2021 (UTC)Reply
I didn't understand what you just wrote, but it's useless to argue with you further. Noraskulk (talk) 14:45, 2 January 2021 (UTC)Reply
You wrote "The issue is moot" as your text. How is the fact that the issue is not moot and the sentence was removed for that reason something you don't understand?--Ermenrich (talk) 14:46, 2 January 2021 (UTC)Reply
Where did I write this? Noraskulk (talk) 14:49, 2 January 2021 (UTC)Reply
If you didn't write it, why do you keep reinserting it?--Ermenrich (talk) 15:01, 2 January 2021 (UTC)Reply
Where? Be more precise. Noraskulk (talk) 15:02, 2 January 2021 (UTC).Reply
If you really don't know [1].--Ermenrich (talk) 15:11, 2 January 2021 (UTC)Reply
Ah, got it. Ermenrich, I did not write that The issue is moot. I just thought your description of editing was strange.Noraskulk (talk) 15:18, 2 January 2021 (UTC).Reply

Interpretatio slavica edit

I have noticed that you are interested in historical Slavic matters, maybe this suggestion could be interesting for you?--Berig (talk) 16:44, 9 January 2021 (UTC)Reply

Old Norse etymologies edit

Let's not remove the Old Norse forms of the names of Rus' rulers. As you probably know, the mainstream view of Rus' history is that the early rulers were Scandinavians and/or of Scandinavian origin. I know all about Anti-Normanism, as my mother-in-law used to be a professor of history at the Russian Academy of Sciences, and I am really sorry if you find "Normanism" offensive.--Berig (talk) 14:41, 23 January 2021 (UTC)Reply

PS, if you are interested in names, I suggest you read this article by Elena Melnikova.--Berig (talk) 17:53, 23 January 2021 (UTC)Reply
  • Berig, you're a little wrong. "Anti-Normanism" is a false patriotic belief, according to which the first Varangian princes of ancient Russia were Slavs, or the state of the Slavs existed even before the vocation of the Varangians. I don't hold that opinion, and I am very happy to talk about this topic with a knowledgeable person. Noraskulk (talk) 12:33, 25 January 2021 (UTC).Reply
The fact is that in the chronicles (especially in the Novgorod First Chronicle) it is not said about the nationality of Oleg. Noraskulk (talk) 12:36, 25 January 2021 (UTC).Reply
True, but his name is accepted as Norse Helgi. Anyway, I have no problem with you removing unreferenced information.--Berig (talk) 16:35, 25 January 2021 (UTC)Reply
Where? Noraskulk (talk) 06:42, 26 January 2021 (UTC).Reply
Here. It gave me the wrong impression that you were Anti-Normanist, and I apologize for that.--Berig (talk) 12:07, 26 January 2021 (UTC)Reply
Berig, i forgive you. Noraskulk (talk) 12:19, 26 January 2021 (UTC).Reply

Berig has already address this point with you. Please cease making edits like this where you change Rus' to Russian and remove that Old Norse forms of Rus' names, as you did here [2], [3].--Ermenrich (talk) 14:03, 5 February 2021 (UTC)Reply

re Russian America edit

What is the deal with this edit in Russian America? See Talk:Russian America#re Russian loanwords from Mayan (!). Maybe I'm missing something? Herostratus (talk) 22:13, 24 February 2021 (UTC)Reply

  • That was a long time ago.. I don't even remember what nonsense I wrote there. I don't even remember whether I deleted it later or not. Noraskulk (talk) 13:35, 25 February 2021 (UTC).Reply
    • Oh sure, OK, no problem. Not complaining, just making sure I'm not missing something, thanks. Taken care of. Herostratus (talk) 21:27, 25 February 2021 (UTC)Reply

Letopenist edit

Why do you use this word instead of “letopisets”?

I can’t find “Letopenist” or “Летопенист” anywhere else. Did you invent this word yourself? --Brinerat (talk) 11:37, 21 June 2021 (UTC)Reply

  • Brinerat, please excuse me. It's just more familiar to my ears. Correct, please, if not difficult. Noraskulk (talk) 14:21, 21 June 2021 (UTC).Reply
