[edit] Your request...
Don't worry too much. I (and a lot of others) have both in their watchlists. I'll check later (same response in my talk). NikoSilver 23:01, 11 February 2007 (UTC)
- Καλωσήρθες. I've no idea about those citations, their content and how they're used in these articles. I suggest if you feel that the content is unsourced or a minority opinion to:
- Add other source(s) with other aspects of the story (and other texts).
- Request specific quotes from these sources in the article talks.
- Will be watching, but don't just delete what may look like a sourced part of the article text. If you know for a fact that the sources don't include the info presented, then add a {{failed verification}} after these sources and state what the true content says in the article talks.

[edit] Greetings
Hi Seleukosa, very happy to know you :-) And BTW, I really don't know of what you excused yourself for, you certainly haven't said anything uncivil. And I greatly approve of your asking help and advice from an expert and respected editor, like User:NikoSilver; it's the right thing to do, and you shouldn't be afraid to do it in the future. As for the disputed edits regarding Germanos Karavangelis and Greek Struggle for Macedonia, I didn't make them myself, so I have problems awnsering to your points; but according to WP:AGF, we must assume that these edits are sourced, even if the old editor will not give us info, as he left wikipedia slamming the door several months ago. As for the rest I fully endorse NikoSilver's indications. As for the image you contested, that maybe easier to awnser, as it was uploaded by a Thessalonikian editor, User:Kapnisma. For clarifications regarding that photo try sending a message on his talk page, but keep in mind he's not always around.--Aldux 18:23, 12 February 2007 (UTC)
- Oh, and since you're a new editor, consider giving a look at the rules of wikipedia, like WP:V, WP:NPOV, WP:CIV and WP:OR, as they are useful to understand how the community works. Ciao!--Aldux 18:31, 12 February 2007 (UTC)
I put those articles on watch. If nobody answers your querries then feel free to remove the unreferenced content once and for all (preferably by moving it in Talk). You shouldn't worry about it too much, there's a lot of POV-pushing going on in wikipedia. Stick with WP:CITE and WP:NOR and you'll always be right. Oh, and stay away from drugs.

- Seleukosa excuse me for not being able to assess your information and for not having the time to do so these days. :-( I should have been a better student in history (which I despised due to seriously fucked-up teachers filled with hate for kids in my social position -but that's another story). I found out quite late that it is a fascinating subject. I know a few things about Macedonia, mostly from here! And I've practically made the articles Macedonia (terminology) and Macedonia naming dispute, from information here and on scholarly works on the internet (well, I also bought several books...) Study the links Aldux and Miskin gave you. I'm very pleased and honoured to be the one who welcomed you. Call me anytime, and I'll do my best. NikoSilver 23:34, 13 February 2007 (UTC)
- E tu amico Aldux... ma che dici? "expert and respected editor, like User:NikoSilver" sei pazzo? Non sono "expert", e per... rispetto... :-) Don't go around slandering me like that please! People may think I'm serious! NikoSilver 23:34, 13 February 2007 (UTC)
[edit] Χαιρετισμός
Καλησπέρα αδερφέ, έκανα διορθώσεις στα δύο άρθρα. Ποτέ δεν έγραψα οτι είναι Τούρκοι αυτοί στη φωτογραφία. Αυτο, μαζί με τις άλλες ανοησίες είναι κάποια σχόλια κάποιου Σκοπιανού ο οποίος χρησιμοποιεί ως πηγή τον γνωστό και μη εξαιρετέο Λιθοξόου. Kapnisma 16:53, 13 February 2007 (UTC)
I have added a new article Tellos Agras, have a look. Kapnisma 20:39, 15 February 2007 (UTC)
