RashersTienney,

I have revised my entry for the Sinti after your entry. All I am writing is proved by innumerable judiciary acts and verdicts by Italian courts, which you can easily find almost daily on www.corriere.it. For the sake of conciseness it is simply unthinkable to quote them all.

thank you for your contribution and for keeping this community alive

Thanks you Rashers for your words of encouragement concerning my edit on the above. This is actually the person formerly known as User Redking7. I was banned (unfairly in my view - supposed reasons are discusson on my old talk page).

RashersTierney could you have a look at, and perhaps assist in engaging the wikiIreland community, on the "discussion" going on regarding the inclusion of "Scots Irish American" content in the Irish American article Irish American? (Its at the bottom of the discussion section) I believe that the wikiIreland community et al will have a more academic perspective on the points, (such as what Irish citizens left Ireland for elsewhere and when etc.,) rather than just a few POV pushers who would ideally like to dictate the content as it suits their interests.

Hello mr. Rashers,

I would like to correct you or whoever wrote the article regarding Romany/Romani Language (Gypsy Language). The correct term for this language is Rromales, Gypsy or Rromani. It has nothing to do with Romany or Romani (whatever that means..)and especially with Romanian language. These languages (Rromales and Romanian) are different in every point of view, but because of the term "Romani" or "Romanies" everyone else on this planet confuse the 2 populations. That's why in every movie with Gypsies their characters speak in romanian, that's why many countries confuse Romanians with Gypsies, etc. and we, the Romanians have problems with authorities in other countries, are discriminated and badly treated wherever we go in this world. I'm just tired of this confusion everywhere I go and for people to think i'm a gypsy! I have nothing with them, I'm not a racist, but let's just draw a line between this cultures. The problem is I cannot provide you quotes in English to sustain my argument, because most of the web pages borrowed one from another the term of Romani/Romany, and that is, of course, the wrong one. But you can find web pages in Romanian's Google version about Rromales or Rromani language, Rromales web page, etc.

There is far less confusion on the distinction between Roma/Romani/Romany/Romanian than you seem to think, as has been demonstrated by numerous discussions here on Wikipedia over a long period of time.

Sorry for taking so long to reply. I've been away from Wikiland for the past few days. As I understand how the Ryan enquiry dealt with the names of children and others, the policy seems to have been to use pseudo-names in all cases in order to advance their work. (I am sure you are more informed than I on this point). I can see no problem about using the reported name "Robert Moore", and the actual name, Joseph Pyke, as you have done here. Perhaps a brief explanation that the real identities of the boys were not used by Ryan (with ref.). I don't see any issues re. WP:OR or privacy (we are not constrained as was Ryan in this regard) so long as the issue of the 2 names is ref'd. Great work. Keep it up.

I think the editor in question was querying this edit - I've outlined justifications for not deleting the entries at User talk:86.41.66.254.

I thought you might be interested to know that this document is what I'm looking at adding to the Porajmos article. How's your German? In the German Wikipedia, it says that this report argues that Romanis were persecuted even more intensely than Jews during the Holocaust. I plan to work through it, but it is 102 pages long, and I'm going away next week on holiday, so it might be a few weeks before I digest it. I'll add that userbox to my page.

March 19, 2010: again and again: Just wondering what the reasoning is behind deleting the link to www.worldpassport.tk from the page titled "world passport" on wikipedia? As far as I can tell, a world passport is not an internationally recognised official document and therefore the 'title and concept' cannot be claimed by any one individual nor organisation. A World Passport remains a conceptual idea.

While I have read the wikipedia guidelines and I understand that it is not a publisher of individual thought, I am then confused as to why the World Service Authority can voice their philosophical viewpoint and mislead potential readers/purchasers into believing in the power of a document that does not give any true identity nor real access at worldwide borders. (except of course in a couple of extremely rare, or "case-by-case" as they would like to put it, circumstances).

You could also argue that the www.worldpassport.tk link leads to a website, but it was placed in the same external link section as the link to the World Service Authority. While the artist's website only requires thoughtful discussion, which generates a world-wide point of view on the ideology behind the concept of a world passport, the World Service Authority charges a fee for all their so-called "world-wide" documents: World Citizen Card: registration fee is $30 plus $30 annual assessment. World Passort: 3 years: $45. 5 years: $75 8 years: $100. World Donor Passport: with special cover added is issued gratis to contributors for $400 or more to the World Refugee Fund. (btw: connected directly to the World Service Authority) World Identity Card: $20 World Birth Certificate: $20 World Marriage Certificate (only for registered World Citizens): $30. For the World Political Asylum Card (only for registered World Citizens): $10. For the World Press Card (only for members of the World Media Association): $30 (2 year membership fee). Shipping and handling fees are extra (of course!)

Now if one would want to get pedantic about the interpretation of what is and what isn't encyclopaedic content, then I really have to argue that while the World Service Authority appears to have an official website and official authority it is no more than a scam to take money out of the hands of the desperate. And if there is anyone that knows about how desperate they are, it is myself. I have read and answered so many requests from those who actually believe that there is the possibility of buying your way out of an impossible situation.

So, if you delete the link www.worldpassport .tk, then the World Service Authority link should be removed as well. It is only a wonderful concept put into the hands of a true misleader, and personally I believe, all information about this organisation should be taken from wikipedia. It only gives it a more "true" status.

Voicing an artists' view, equal rights of discussion and thought and speaking up for those without the freedom to travel thoughout our world.

Wikipedia, please be consistent, but most of all be responsible!

These are clearly separate topics and should not be conflated within one. I cannot say if the subject of your edits merits its own article, but it may well do. In that case it could possibly be argued as to which is the primary topic or if indeed either one can be considered 'primary'. The purpose of an article name in Wikipedia is simply to help readers reach the particular topic of interest to them. If you feel that the content requires improvement (as undoubtedly most do) please read the links I provided at your IP Talk and help in the project. Reverting, particularly from alternate accounts,, is not likely to have the effect you wish. Also worth considering is registration of a User Name for the reasons I gave. Good luck and if I can be of help, don't hesitate to contact. Specific concerns may be raised at the article Talk Page for the opinion of a wider interested audience of editors.

What is a World Passport?

Over the last year and a half, I don't know how many times I have had to argue my point here. One editor feels I am within "right" and then the next not, to have my link http://www.worldpassport.tk and description of the "world passport project" under the world passport page of Wikipedia.

My reasoning is: If World Passport Authority can link under this topic, then so can anyone who issues world passports under whatever premise they wish: Be it pseudo-official; art-based or concrete philosophical discussion.

Just because the word "authority" is in World Passport Authority's title doesn't mean they are a real authority. Just because the booklet that they issue, looks like an official document doesn't mean it is. They scam people to pay an amount of money for something that doesn't actually exist. More details are seen below in my last discussion on this page.

A World Passport is a conceptual idea and doesn't belong to any one organisation. FYI: Another artist who discusses this is Tom Muller: http://www.galeriedusseldorf.com.au/GDArtists/Mueller/TMHomoGlobus02.html. And therefore I and anyone else should also be able to link information about this concept too. In my case, the two websites are about the same issue: a world passport. The only difference is that I, Sonya Spry; have a completely different view about how to bring the concept and topic of a world passport to the forefront than the founder of http://www.worldservice.org, Garry Davis. World Passport Authority already has a page to itself, since it is a business. It cannot however, have "sole ownership" to the concept of nor the word: world passport.

Hi again. I've tried the usual methods to find an alternative image for Schmidt and must admit to coming up empty-handed. The text I added to the image was based on the English translation of the original title that accompanied the image "Rumänien (Bukarest).- Land und Leute, Politische Leiter der NSDAP kaufen Blumensträuße von 2 Blumenverkäuferinnen (Roma/Sinti)" and the date of 1941. However, as the source points out, the image titles may not in all cases be considered reliable, so perhaps until someone else can confirm or correct the identities it might be best to simply apply the title as given in quotes, without elaboration. I will change it accordingly unless you have managed to find out additional info. in the meantime, or have another suggestion. What do you think?

Firstly, my sincere apologies again for the unintended impact at your page, (having initially not noticed the error, my clumsy efforts to 'fix' things just seemed to make matters worse). On the question of the photo, my understanding was not that the PDF contained a photo, but gave a locatable reference to one.

I'm sorry you see it that way. That is not my intention as I said in the edit summary.
