Brateyevsky District

Добрый день, коллега! Мне, к сожалению, неизвестны правила, которыми руководствуется русская Википедия, но в нашем лесу партия нам спустила предельно ясные указания: Википедия — это не путеводитель :) Это не означает, конечно, что о транспорте писать вообще ничего не надо. Очень даже наооборот — надо, но только энциклопедическую информацию. Список автобусных маршрутов же это типичный материал для путеводителей, тем более что по вашим же словам вы добавили её для туристов, а не пользователей энциклопедии. В принципе, даже и информация про метро, наверное, попадает в разряд путеводительства, но это всё-таки более серая область, да и ссылки на статьи там есть, поэтому эту часть я оставил. Вот такие пироги.—Ëzhiki (Igels Hérissonovich Ïzhakoff-Amursky) • (yo?); August 22, 2011; 13:38 (UTC)

Wikipedia Stories Project

Привет!

Меня зовут Виктор, и я рассказчик с Wikimedia Foundation, некоммерческая организация, которая поддерживает Википедию. Я хроник вдохновляющих историй сообщества Википедии по всему миру, в том числе и читателей, редакторов и доноров. Истории совершенно необходимы для любой некоммерческой органицации, чтобы убедить людей поддержывать наш проект, и мы знаем, что у людей, которые строют и используют Википедии есть много, что рассказать!

Я ищу вдохновляющие страницы пользователей, и интересных историй о том, как Википедия влияют на жизнь людей. Я задавал вопросы вроде "Как Википедия изменила Вашу жизнь?", "Какая самая интересная история у Вас есть о Википедии?" и "Википедия ли когда-нибудь Вас удивило?"

В прошлом году мы использовали ежегодный сбор средств как способ показать миру, кто на самом деле пишет Википедия. Мы показывали редакторов из Бразилии, Украины, Аргентины, Саудовской Аравии, Кении, Индии, США и Англии. Этот метод имел огромный успех, в результате чего у нас была наиболее финансово успешная кампании по сбору средств в историе организации. Кроме того, мы остались верны духу Википедии, просвещение общественности, что это бесплатно ТОП-5 Сайт создан добровольцами, как Ви и я.

В этом году мы хотим выделить еще редакторов Википедии на русском языке, так что я нахожусь в процессе планирования поездки в Россию и интервью с редакторами.

Если Википедия положительно повлеяла на Вас или на кого-то из Ваших знакомых, или у Вас есть что-то интересное сказать о Википедии, я бы очень хотел услышать об этом!

Пожалуйста, дайте мне знать, если Ви бы хотели участвовать в проекте Истории Википедии, или если вы знаете кого-то еще, с кем я должен поговорить.

Конечно, если у Вас есть какие-либо вопросы или сомнения, пожалуйста, обращайтесь! Я отвечу, как только смогу. Извините за плохой перевод этого письма, я использую Google-перевод. Я надеюсь, что заставляет вас смеяться :)

Спасибо за Ваше время,

Hi!

My name is Victor and I'm a storyteller with the Wikimedia Foundation, the non-profit organization that supports Wikipedia. I'm chronicling the inspiring stories of the Wikipedia community around the world, including those from readers, editors, and donors. Stories are absolutely essential for any non-profit to persuade people to support the cause, and we know the vast network of people who make and use Wikipedia have so much to share.

I'm scouring user pages looking for inspiring, motivating and interesting stories of how Wikipedia has affected the lives of people. I'm asking questions like "How has Wikipedia changed your life?", "What's the most interesting story you have about Wikipedia?" and "Has Wikipedia ever surprised you?"

Last year, we used the annual fundraiser as a way to show the world who it is who actually writes Wikipedia. We featured editors from Brazil, Ukraine, Argentina, Saudi Arabia, Kenya, India, United States and England. This campaign was a huge success, resulting in the most financially successful fundraising campaign ever. It was also a campaign that stayed true to the spirit of Wikipedia, educating the public that this free top-5 website is created by volunteers like you and I.

This year we want to highlight more Russian-language Wikipedia editors, so I am in the process of planning a trip to Russia to interview editors.

If you or someone you know (or have heard about) has been positively affected by Wikipedia, or have something interesting to say about Wikipedia I'd very much like to hear about it!

Please let me know if you're inclined to take part in the Wikipedia Stories Project, or if you know someone else with whom I should speak.

Of course, if you have any questions or concerns, please ask! I will answer as soon as I can. I apologize for any poor translation of this letter, I am using Google-translate. I hope it makes you laugh :)

Thank you for your time,

Victor Grigas

Creation of the article "2019 in Russia" in English Wikipedia

Hello, Brateevsky. Happy New Year to you! 2019 is coming soon. Can you creat the article "2019 in Russia" in English Wikipedia?
123.150.182.177 15:57, 31 December 2018 (UTC)

Hello! And Happy New Year too! Yeah, 2019 is coming (and already comes in Siberia, for example). What about article...English Wikipedia is not my main Wikipedia. :) Anyway, I think, some events should already came in Russia in 2019, unless the atricle will be empty and even be deleted. I think it's better to create the article at least in January, when there wiil be information for it. It's the best decision now. But I can add to article some facts and improve the article, if there were some problems with it. You can see this category on Commons and this category to fill the article. :) --Brateevsky ^{(talk to me)} 16:09, 31 December 2018 (UTC)

Городня (приток Москвы)

Доброго здоровья, уважаемый коллега Brateevsky, меня к сожалению забанили бессрочно в руВики, поэтому мне пришлось делать правку со смартфона, с мобильного интернета, по поводу ударения в слове Городня, которую вы отменили. Я так же как и вы интересуюсь Москвой, в которой живу, в своё время написал статью по теме Посёлок Шлюзы. Сам я прожил в Чертаново почти всю жизнь. Я неоднократно разговаривал с разными местными жителями, которые родились как в деревне Чертаново, так и в деревне Бирюлёво, так и в селе Ясенево (эта река протекает по Битцевскому лесу, в Чертаново и в Бирюлёво), все они произносят это название как "Горо́дня". Возможно в районе устья, вблизи которого вы живёте, ударение иное "Городня́" (я его ни разу не слышал); но произношение "Горо́дня" реально существует. Вы конечно можете игнорировать мою правку (я дескать такой-сякой бессрочно забаненный участник) и попросить АИ, но если разобраться то АИ на "Городня́" нет и у вас. Если возможно, и если у вас есть желание, то прошу вас оставить в преамбуле статьи оба ударения.Wlbw68 (talk) 18:33, 22 June 2019 (UTC)

Добрый вечер! Ударение в статье проставил участник, который ни к Чертаново, ни к Братеево отношения не имеет. И раз за 13 лет вопрос не возник, то значит, ударение устоялось. Возможно, участник пользовался источниками, где ударение было. Что же касается варианта ударения на второй слог, моё мнение — что это чисто деревенский вариант (что вы подтвердили), в современной Москве никто не говорит на второй слог. Примерно так же, как говорят: из нефтИ, дОбыча и т.д. (выпендрёж). Ударение имеет место меняться — может когда-то и было на второй слог, но сейчас говорят на последний. Примерно так же, как со станцией метро ru:Планерная (станция метро). Для меня очевидно, что ударение на последний слог, поэтому правку я отменил. --Brateevsky ^{(talk to me)} 19:36, 22 June 2019 (UTC)

• • • Уважаемый коллега Brateevsky. Не очень понятно что такое "ударение устоялось" в Вики? Я встречал старые статьи, которым было много лет, в которых достаточно часто было неправильное ударение и исправлял их. Например, статью ru:Праотцы была написана вообще в родительном падеже, я исправил её только через 8 лет после её создания. До этого её правила такая опытная участница как Shakko. По-моему, участник поставил ударение по своему вкусу, и на мой взгляд это ударение неверное. Если бы источники есть на ударение (словари), то их нужно указать. Если источников нет, то разумно ударение не ставить в преамбуле. Вы говорите: "деревенский вариант", а что есть иной? Эти люди по 60 лет живут в Москве, от них я впервые услышал название реки и сам им пользовался на протяжении своей жизни, другого я не слышал. Замечу, что я не деревенский, а коренной москвич. Вы же когда интересуетесь названием селения или реки разве не спрашиваете местных жителей, почему здесь надо поступать по-другому? Название конечно может меняться, но для подтверждения этого изменения нужны АИ. Вы пишите, что для вас это очевидно. Но разве статьи пишутся на основании каких-либо частных, но для них очевидных, мнений участников? В своё время на СО были споры по поводу ударения в слове ru:Полифония, но там хотя бы словари были с ударениями. По поводу ударений не всё так просто, например ru:Дербеневская набережная, человек, впервые видевший это название, никогда не поставит ударение на второй слог. Названия топонимов и гидронимов вещи очень специфические и хитрые. Что касается название реки, то оно происходит от слова Огоро́д, соответственно река, протекающая за огородами: Огоро́дня или Горо́дня. Например, ролик https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=T-D8VMFQlQo ваши местные братеевские жители (не деревенские) на 15:59 "реки Горо́дни" 17:00 "речка Горо́дня" . Другой ролик https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=uPSof_TCieU, то же ваш братеевский 3:33 "Я на реке Городня́". Своё мнение я изложил. Дальше, вам выбирать, что написать в преамбуле, поскольку у меня уже нет прав и никогда не будет вносить отпатрулированные изменения в руВики.Wlbw68 (talk) 22:01, 22 June 2019 (UTC)

Help with Russian sources

Hi there. I am new to wikipedia and would like to ask your help with something. I saw your user listed on the WikiProject for Russia.

I noticed that the English-language Wikipedia articles for a lot of lesser-known Russian and eastern European historical figures are often littered with spelling and grammatical errors (not to mention almost entirely lacking in actual information).

I basically rewrote the articles for two figures in particular: Pavel Petrovich Blonsky, and Lev Kassil. The problem being, I am extremely limited insofar as what sources I can use. I don't speak Russian, and Blonsky for instance only has one somewhat-reputable source on his biographic details in English.

My question being, is whether or not you know any users who are willing to properly source and "flesh out" the details of the articles that I mentioned, direct from the Russian-language sources? If not, are there any Russian sources/sites you could recommend checking out?

Thank you very much and sorry for the random message about all of this. Have a nice day. MunsterManicotti5092 (talk) 07:24, 27 December 2023 (UTC)

4. Click the blue "Save" button at the bottom of the page. (Do not click the red "Restore all default settings" button, which will reset all of your preference settings, not just the signature.)

Solution 2: Fix your custom signature:

1. Find the signature section in the first tab of Special:Preferences.
2. Click the Learn more button next to the error to learn how to fix the error.
3. Update your signature to fix the error.
4. Click Save to update to your newly fixed signature.

Solution 3: Do nothing:

1. In accordance with a recent request for comment, all invalid signatures will be changed to the default, which looks like "Example (talk)", one month from now.

If you have followed these instructions and still want help, please leave a message at Wikipedia talk:Signatures. Thank you! MediaWiki message delivery (talk) 06:05, 2 February 2024 (UTC)
