After a recent request, I added WikiProject Slovenia to the list of projects to compile monthly pageview stats for. The data is the same used by http://stats.grok.se/en/ but the program is different, and includes the aggregate views from all redirects to each page. The stats are at Wikipedia:WikiProject Slovenia/Popular pages.

The page will be updated monthly with new data. The edits aren't marked as bot edits, so they will show up in watchlists. You can view more results, request a new project be added to the list, or request a configuration change for this project using the toolserver tool. If you have any comments or suggestions, please let me know. Thanks!

Hi, I'm asking for the community input on the proposal that the settlements called 'mesto' (see the list on pg. 28) in Slovenia should be described here as cities not towns (for example Trebnje, Radeče etc). The arguments to use the word city:

• [2] - the 'official' translation of the word 'mesto' as 'city' in PISRS.
• according to the article city, numerous settlements with less than 3000 inhabitants (limit for 'mesto' in Slovenia) are called city in the English-speaking world.

I'm also proposing that the articles should describe either the settlement or the municipality. To avoid misunderstandings, it would probably make sense to create separate articles for all the 211 municipalities of Slovenia (as it has been done in the Slovene Wikipedia) and present statistical data for the municipality there. Otherwise, for example the infobox in the article about the settlement Hotemež (it's in the Municipality of Radeče) gives data for the settlement, whereas the infobox in the article about the settlement Radeče gives data about the municipality, which is inconsistent and confusing. Even more so, as the infobox is named 'Infobox Settlement'.

For both proposals, see also User talk:Kaktus999#Settlement/municipality distinction. Thanks for your opinions. --Eleassar ^{my talk} 19:47, 21 May 2011 (UTC)[reply]__DTELLIPSISBUTTON__{"threadItem":{"timestamp":"2011-05-21T19:47:00.000Z","author":"Eleassar","type":"comment","level":1,"id":"c-Eleassar-2011-05-21T19:47:00.000Z-City\/town,_description_of_settlements","replies":["c-Yerpo-2011-05-22T07:41:00.000Z-Eleassar-2011-05-21T19:47:00.000Z"]}}-->

I agree, cities that have a formal city status should be noted as such. Also, I strongly feel that descriptions of settlements and municipalities should be separated. Time and will are the issues, though. — Yerpo ^Eh? 07:41, 22 May 2011 (UTC)[reply]__DTELLIPSISBUTTON__{"threadItem":{"timestamp":"2011-05-22T07:41:00.000Z","author":"Yerpo","type":"comment","level":2,"id":"c-Yerpo-2011-05-22T07:41:00.000Z-Eleassar-2011-05-21T19:47:00.000Z","replies":["c-Eleassar-2012-01-26T16:31:00.000Z-Yerpo-2011-05-22T07:41:00.000Z","c-Eleassar-2012-01-30T10:16:00.000Z-Yerpo-2011-05-22T07:41:00.000Z"]}}-->

The PISRS had changed the translation to 'town',[3] and per a recent conversation I suggest that only the seats of city municipalities (11) are named city, and others of the listed town. That's because "a city municipality is a municipality comprising of a larger town", i.e. a city) ("mestna občina je občina, ki zaobseže večje mesto").[4] (pg. 10) This makes the distinction similar to the German Stadt / Großstadt.[5] --Eleassar ^{my talk} 16:31, 26 January 2012 (UTC)[reply]__DTELLIPSISBUTTON__{"threadItem":{"timestamp":"2012-01-26T16:31:00.000Z","author":"Eleassar","type":"comment","level":3,"id":"c-Eleassar-2012-01-26T16:31:00.000Z-Yerpo-2011-05-22T07:41:00.000Z","replies":[]}}-->

A town can obtain the status of a city municipality if it has more than 20,000 residents and at least 15,000 workplaces.(page 28) --Eleassar ^{my talk} 10:16, 30 January 2012 (UTC)[reply]__DTELLIPSISBUTTON__{"threadItem":{"timestamp":"2012-01-30T10:16:00.000Z","author":"Eleassar","type":"comment","level":3,"id":"c-Eleassar-2012-01-30T10:16:00.000Z-Yerpo-2011-05-22T07:41:00.000Z","replies":[]}}-->

Unfortunately no suggestions from me. BTW, I know that there are lots of Slovenian people who have Serbian origin in Slovenia, but how do they declare them selves in real life?

Well, technically, probably Slovenians of (partially) Serbian ancestry? Serbian-Slovenian footballer for me would mean someone who has both citizenships or something like that. For example, Jakov Fak is originally from Croatia but has adopted Slovenian citizenship and competes for the Slovenian national team. So, as his article says, he is a Croatian-Slovenian biathlete. Otherwise, I'd say it's really on the case-to-case basis. --Tone 21:06, 31 August 2011 (UTC)[reply]__DTELLIPSISBUTTON__{"threadItem":{"timestamp":"2011-08-31T21:06:00.000Z","author":"Tone","type":"comment","level":4,"id":"c-Tone-2011-08-31T21:06:00.000Z-Kebeta-2011-08-31T20:55:00.000Z","replies":[]}}-->

(Comment reposted from Eleassar's talk page for convenience): I agree with discussion at WP:SLO. However, streets shouldn't be treated in isolation from squares, bridges, parks, and buildings. In any case, I think it's necessary to have the native names available as well; for example, "Congress Square (Slovene: Kongresni trg) ...", "The Dragon Bridge (Slovene: Zmajski most) ...", "Čop Street (Slovene: Čopova ulica) ...", "Cankar Hall (Slovene: Cankarjev dom) ..." etc. as these articles currently have them.

Yerpo is referring to what I always think of as the "Berlin Wall principle" (German: Berliner Mauer), which is pretty typical for this stuff in most languages: the generic element (Mauer 'wall') gets translated and the specific element (Berliner 'Berlin') is stripped of native derivational morphology (e.g., German: -er), translated if necessary (e.g., Italian: Berlino, Czech: Berlín), and then any other morphology (e.g., Slovene: -ski, Czech: -ská) or necessary syntax (e.g., Italian: di, apposition, compounding, adnominal genitive, etc.) is applied to it. Thus:

Germ. Berliner Mauer → Eng. Berlin Wall, Sln. Berlinski zid, Ital. Muro di Berlino, Cz. Berlínská zeď, etc.

Sln. Ljubljanski grad → Eng. Ljubljana Castle, Germ. Burg Laibach, Ital. Castello di Lubiana, Cz. Lublaňský hrad, etc.

Ital. Piazza San Pietro → Eng. St. Peter's Square, Sln. Trg Svetega Petra, Germ. Petersplatz, Cz. Svatopetrské náměstí, etc.

The English names Lake Cerknica, Čop Street, etc. faithfully follow this principle.

Yes, by analogy Slovenia Street or Slovene/Slovenian Street (one can justify either the noun or adjective form; cf. Canada/Canadian Avenue, for example, in various cities.). But also including the native name (Slovenska cesta) at first mention is a good idea, especially if there's no linked article where it's discussed in more detail. That way nothing is ambiguous.

I'd like to express my reservations about such naming, as some names have been extensively translated with keeping the original Slovenian suffix. For example, Celovška cesta has been mainly translated as Celovška Road (3,230 hits by Google) or Celovška Street (1,410 hits) compared to Celovec Road (8 hits) or Celovec Street (1 hit), Klagenfurt Street (1 hit) or Klagenfurt Road (55 hits, not all relevant). Perhaps, there may be other cases where there is no established English name, but as far as I understand WP:ENGLISH, if such a widely established use does exist, we should use the most common name regardless of which one is the linguistically preferred one. The choice of the name should therefore be considered from case to case. --Eleassar ^{my talk} 09:47, 16 January 2012 (UTC)[reply]__DTELLIPSISBUTTON__{"threadItem":{"timestamp":"2012-01-16T09:47:00.000Z","author":"Eleassar","type":"comment","level":4,"id":"c-Eleassar-2012-01-16T09:47:00.000Z-Doremo-2011-12-03T17:11:00.000Z","replies":["c-Doremo-2012-01-16T14:15:00.000Z-Eleassar-2012-01-16T09:47:00.000Z"]}}-->

Yes, case-to-case is important here. If there were an established English name for Celovška cesta it would be Klagenfurt Street, but there simply isn't an established name (because it's not important enough in the English world to have merited much, if any, discussion independent of travel guides). That doesn't mean that Klagenfurt Street isn't a good translation, or not even the "right" one—just that it's not being used. In the case you've cited here, the morphological shock to Slovenian speakers is greater because of the exonym/endonym contrast of Celovec/Klagenfurt (i.e., it looks really different). With, say, Podutiška cesta → Podutik Street (like Blejsko jezero → Lake Bled) there's no "shock" and it seems natural. A similar "shock" is produced with Dunajska cesta → Vienna Street or Tržaška cesta → Trieste Street (and should be produced by Filozofska fakulteta → Faculty of Arts, except that everyone's used to it, although a few folks are probably still talking about the "Philosophical Faculty"). What's at stake is when things in Slovenia (e.g., some streets) are named after things that are not in Slovenia (e.g., some cities). I think if there were a Čikaska/Pariška/Njujorška cesta I'd probably want to call it Chicago/Paris/New York Street rather than Čikago/Pariz/Njujork Street. Another nice example is Ulica Janeza Pavla II., which really has to be John Paul II Street (not Janez Pavel II. Street) because that's the referent's name in English. Or my recent article on the St. Stanislaus Institute, where I used Stanislaus (and not Stanislav, as the institute's website does) because it's named after Saint Stanislaus, as he's known in English, regardless of the Slovene exonym (Stanislav) or the Polish endonym (Stanisław). But that's the nice thing about Wikipedia; we've got lots of time to think these things over and also to change our minds when it seems right.

I'd prefer to keep strictly to "Road" for "cesta" and "Street" for "ulica". In English it's more natural to say "Road" when talking about the main (historical) route out of a town or city towards another one (often in another country). So "Rimska cesta", "Dunajska cesta" and "Celovška cesta" should surely be "Rome Road", "Vienna Road" and "Klagenfurt Road" - if they're going to be translated at all. In Britain "London Road" (often "the London Road") is a common name throughout the country - never "London Street". "Street" suggests a purely local feature inside a town or city, like "Market Street" or "Church Street".213.127.210.95 (talk) 16:42, 19 September 2015 (UTC)[reply]__DTELLIPSISBUTTON__{"threadItem":{"timestamp":"2015-09-19T16:42:00.000Z","author":"213.127.210.95","type":"comment","level":1,"id":"c-213.127.210.95-2015-09-19T16:42:00.000Z-\u010cop_Street_vs._\u010copova_Street","replies":["c-Doremo-2015-09-19T16:57:00.000Z-213.127.210.95-2015-09-19T16:42:00.000Z","c-Eleassar-2012-05-13T11:01:00.000Z-213.127.210.95-2015-09-19T16:42:00.000Z"]}}-->

Slovenian uses cesta and ulica more or less randomly today (e.g., every street, even the smallest, in Ljubljana's Rožna Dolina neighborhood is a cesta).

I think Gentry Street is good. I always like to check for other instances (to see if it's plausible); this one is named after a family named Gentry, and so it isn't a good model. However, the name has been used here (in an Eastern European context) as well as here and here, so it seems like an appropriate translation. It's got my approval for sounding natural.

I'd always thought the name referred to "Gospod" as in "the Lord", i.e. God. Does anyone know what it was called in German in Laibach days? That might provide a clue.

The name Gosposka ulica has nothing to do with God; that's why we check historical sources to avoid such mistakes. It was called Herrengasse in German.

I'd like to invite discussion of the name of the article Nabrežina; it seems to me that it should appear under Aurisina because it's in Italy, regardless of other factors. The "original name" argument on the talk page is irrelevant (most European cities would not be recognizable under their etymologically "original names"), and the "majority population" argument is also a dangerous one because it invites inconsistency (for example, by this logic some small Slovenian settlements should be listed under Roma names, not Slovenian ones).

As far as I understand the discussion, the main arguments are that the area is bilingual (so both names are official), and the Slovene name is more commonly used in various sources when referencing notable Slovenes connected to the village.

Also, if official bilingualism and majority ethnic group are the criteria, then Hodoš and Dobrovnik ought to be moved to Hodos and Dobronak because of their Hungarian majorities.

Anyone reading a non-Slovenian map - and the vast majority of maps in the world are inevitably non-Slovenian! - will find "Aurisina". So I think we have to keep to the names known to the rest of the world, unless the context is quite specifically Slovenian (and even then I think both names should be used, with a slash). There's simply no point in saying "Celovec" if 99.99% of the world now knows the place as "Klagenfurt". And Slovenian names just happen to be very different from the names used across the border (even something as "simple" as Devin/Duino).213.127.210.95 (talk) 16:42, 19 September 2015 (UTC)[reply]__DTELLIPSISBUTTON__{"threadItem":{"timestamp":"2015-09-19T16:42:00.000Z","author":"213.127.210.95","type":"comment","level":1,"id":"c-213.127.210.95-2015-09-19T16:42:00.000Z-Aurisina_\/_Nabre\u017eina","replies":[]}}-->

Someone can add 45 57 N, 15 29 E for Lower Sava Valley (the same as Krško, which is pretty much in the middle of the area). I would do so, but I'm not familiar enough with all the parameters in the geocoordinates.

I've struck out the coordinates that I've entered.

Hey, I was watching the Slovenes article and saw that there isnt any pictures of famous Slovenes in the infobox like they are in other nations (examples: Austrians, Serbs, Croats, Germans, Italians etc..). Instead there is only a white-blue-read flag of Slovene nation. I suggest that members of the WikiProject Slovenia would work togheter and pick togheter about 16 most prominent Slovenes in history and put them in the infobox (in the same order as some of the mentioned above articles). Now, I would do it myself but I feel that a general consensus should be reached before deciding who would be put there (I dont want to start an edit war or something:). I suggest that anyone who wish to participate in the selection would join on the article's talk page.

Hi everyone. March is Women's History Month and I'm hoping a few folks here at WP:Slovenia will have interest in putting on events (on and off wiki) related to women's roles in Slovenia's history, society and culture. We've created an event page on English Wikipedia (please translate!) and I hope you'll find the inspiration to participate. These events can take place off wiki, like edit-a-thons, or on wiki, such as themes and translations. Please visit the page here: WikiWomen's History Month.

Hi, I've been thinking whether it makes more sense to title the administrative centre of a municipality as 'Settlement, municipality' or just as 'Settlement' and name the article about the municipality as 'Municipality of Settlement'. With an example, is it better that the article 'Bovec' or 'Horjul' describes the town or the municipality? That's:

1. 'Bovec' about the town and 'Municipality of Bovec' about the municipality.
2. 'Bovec, Bovec' about the town and 'Bovec' about the municipality.

I'd support the first option. What the majority is interested in is the town, not the administrative entity of which it is part, and this format seems less clumsy to me. What do you think? --Eleassar ^{my talk} 10:33, 24 June 2012 (UTC)[reply]__DTELLIPSISBUTTON__{"threadItem":{"timestamp":"2012-06-24T10:33:00.000Z","author":"Eleassar","type":"comment","level":1,"id":"c-Eleassar-2012-06-24T10:33:00.000Z-Naming_of_municipalities_and_the_eponymous_settlements","replies":["c-Doremo-2012-06-24T12:37:00.000Z-Eleassar-2012-06-24T10:33:00.000Z"]}}-->

I agree with the first option; for me the settlement is primary. Also, the municipalities tend to come and go, but the settlements are permanent. There are two structural choices: a) Municipality of Horjul (cf. Province of Turin, Province of Cádiz, Municipality of Prilep) and b) Horjul (municipality) (cf. Washington (state), Salzburg (state), Rhône (department)). For a), all Slovene municipality articles should be renamed for consistency (Municipality of Dobrova–Polhov Gradec, Municipality of Horjul, etc.) (using en dashes without spaces for the compound names: Hoče–Slivnica, Hrpelje–Kozina, etc.). For b), only ambiguous articles need be renamed (Horjul (municipality), Dobrova–Polhov Gradec).

I think that per Wikipedia policies (WP:PRECISION) the form 'Municipality of X' should be used, because it is a "natural disambiguation"; i.e. the official name of the mentioned municipality is 'Municipality of Horjul' (Slovene: 'Občina Horjul'). --Eleassar ^{my talk} 09:02, 25 June 2012 (UTC)[reply]__DTELLIPSISBUTTON__{"threadItem":{"timestamp":"2012-06-25T09:02:00.000Z","author":"Eleassar","type":"comment","level":3,"id":"c-Eleassar-2012-06-25T09:02:00.000Z-Doremo-2012-06-24T12:37:00.000Z","replies":["c-Doremo-2012-06-25T16:05:00.000Z-Eleassar-2012-06-25T09:02:00.000Z"]}}-->

Fine with me. If others agree with this (or do not object), then they should all be renamed Municipality of X for consistency.

Yes, that seems unavoidable in some cases because Jesenice should be reserved for the disambiguation, and then the simplest disambiguation for the town is Jesenice, Jesenice.

I'm not quite sure where did you get the idea that the form "Settlement municipality" (or "Settlement Municipality") is gramatically incorrect. After all, the official name of the entity is "Občina Horjul", not "Horjulska občina", "Občina Horjula" or just "Horjul". Compare Aomori Prefecture. I absolutely agree that towns should have the priority in naming, but we don't have to invent a natural disambiguation if we can get it by simply translating the official name. — Yerpo ^Eh? 08:51, 20 February 2013 (UTC)[reply]__DTELLIPSISBUTTON__{"threadItem":{"timestamp":"2013-02-20T08:51:00.000Z","author":"Yerpo","type":"comment","level":1,"id":"c-Yerpo-2013-02-20T08:51:00.000Z-Naming_of_municipalities_and_the_eponymous_settlements","replies":["c-Eleassar-2013-02-20T09:33:00.000Z-Yerpo-2013-02-20T08:51:00.000Z"]}}-->

Perhaps it is not grammatically incorrect, but judged by this very conversation I'd say that it is. I'll ask Doremo to say his opinion, since he is knowledgeable in this regard. Otherwise, using the form 'Town (municipality)' would be ok for me too, if this is preferred by other users; although it means a lot of work with renaming all the categories and correcting the links. I'd still vote for the 'Municipality of X' option, because titles like 'Category:Populated places in Ajdovščina (municipality)' seem unnatural to me. --Eleassar ^{my talk} 09:33, 20 February 2013 (UTC)[reply]__DTELLIPSISBUTTON__{"threadItem":{"timestamp":"2013-02-20T09:33:00.000Z","author":"Eleassar","type":"comment","level":2,"id":"c-Eleassar-2013-02-20T09:33:00.000Z-Yerpo-2013-02-20T08:51:00.000Z","replies":["c-Doremo-2013-02-20T12:06:00.000Z-Eleassar-2013-02-20T09:33:00.000Z","c-Doremo-2013-02-20T12:11:00.000Z-Eleassar-2013-02-20T09:33:00.000Z"]}}-->

The formulation the X Municipality doesn't feel intuitively natural to me. The term municipality seems not to generally be used as an administrative term in the UK or the U.S. (with terms like district, council, borough, town, etc. more frequent), so there's little native (domestic) English material to draw upon. One reliable native (domestic) source is the U.S. Board on Geographic Names (click "Search Domestic Names" and then search the term Municipality at "Feature Name"). The predominant pattern returned is Municipality of X. This lends some support to my intuitive preference for the Municipality of Horjul over the Horjul Municipality. The pattern with specific and generic nouns depends on the particular generic noun; for example, I'm very confident of "the city/town/village of X" and not "the X city/town/village." However, I'm also comfortable with "the X Diocese" even though "the Diocese of X" is preferable as more frequent. But comparisons to town or diocese or prefecture aren't informative for how the noun municipality works.

Should abandoned villages like Ašelice, Starološki Grič, and Stari Tabor have their own articles or should they be incorporated into the articles for the villages that their territory has been annexed to (in these cases, Mašelj, Planina, and Brezovica pri Črmošnjicah)? I think there are three choices:

• Keep as separate articles and list in the municipality template as settlements. Comment: there are other examples of settlements with population 0 or no permanent residents (e.g., Čohovo), and there is probably enough reference material for viable articles on these places.
• Keep as separate articles but list in the municipality template as former settlements (separate section). Comment: this would be more accurate for places that are not currently defined as settlements, and some templates already have more categories than the basic Settlement, Landmarks, Notable people (e.g., Template:Celje).
• Incorporate into articles for annexing villages. Comment: redirects would make them still easy to find. However, disadvantages would be losing the Infobox data (skyline images, pushpin maps, latitude, longitude, elevation, etc.) specific to the individual places.

The second option seems best (templates with section: Settlements, subsection: Former). It is completely fine to make new articles about such settlements, as long as a comprehensive review of them can be written.

It would definitely be sensible to create categories by municipalities. There's no criteria how many articles should be in a category (although there sometimes - mostly? - many, see e.g. Template:Kočevje) and categories of individual municipalities that have been or will be created are expected to contain all articles related to an individual municipality. --Eleassar ^{my talk} 10:56, 6 August 2012 (UTC)[reply]__DTELLIPSISBUTTON__{"threadItem":{"timestamp":"2012-08-06T10:56:00.000Z","author":"Eleassar","type":"comment","level":2,"id":"c-Eleassar-2012-08-06T10:56:00.000Z-Sporti-2012-08-06T10:40:00.000Z","replies":["c-Sporti-2012-08-06T11:30:00.000Z-Eleassar-2012-08-06T10:56:00.000Z"]}}-->

Thanks for the categories! There are quite a few former settlements in other municipalities as well, but often as the result of incorporation (like all the former villages now part of Ljubljana) rather than devastation. Potentially, comprehensive separate articles could be created for most of these as well because they've all got distinct histories. The Gottschee villages are a special case, but it could also be useful to mark Črnuče, Šentvid, etc. in such a category in Template:Ljubljana (simply linking to the article on the districts with the same name), along with former settlements like Podgora, Pržan, Trata, etc. that don't have independent articles now.

Should the word 'Občina' in native names of Slovene municipalities in the introductory sentences of articles about them be written with uncapitalised 'občina'? It is written this way at the SURS portal (e.g. here), and it seems to me to make sense, because it designates an area in contrast to the organisation, which would be written capitalised.

Check this map - it's a visualization of all geotagged entries on Slovenia in the English Wiki. All the dots are clickable. There is a couple of blank (or nearly so) regions, such as Pohorje, Dinaric Karst, and Triglav national park, but this looks quite decent. Another such map is at Visual.ly, but I haven't been able to zoom in. Too bad none of those have analyzed Slovene Wikipedia yet, but that's bound to happen someday. — Yerpo ^Eh? 20:05, 16 October 2012 (UTC)[reply]__DTELLIPSISBUTTON__{"threadItem":{"timestamp":"2012-10-16T20:05:00.000Z","author":"Yerpo","type":"comment","level":1,"id":"c-Yerpo-2012-10-16T20:05:00.000Z-Mapping_our_effort","replies":["c-Eleassar-2012-10-16T20:12:00.000Z-Yerpo-2012-10-16T20:05:00.000Z"]}}-->

Thanks, although the majority of articles are stubs about settlements, this brings new information. It seems that we'll have to focus some more of our energy on writing articles about less covered areas and natural features, like mountains, lakes etc. The directions don't always exactly match with Geopedia (cf. the line between Triglav and Škrlatica). I'm not sure what's the reason for this. It's also interesting that major areas of Ljubljana are completely unrepresented. --Eleassar ^{my talk} 20:12, 16 October 2012 (UTC)[reply]__DTELLIPSISBUTTON__{"threadItem":{"timestamp":"2012-10-16T20:12:00.000Z","author":"Eleassar","type":"comment","level":2,"id":"c-Eleassar-2012-10-16T20:12:00.000Z-Yerpo-2012-10-16T20:05:00.000Z","replies":["c-U5K0-2012-10-16T20:54:00.000Z-Eleassar-2012-10-16T20:12:00.000Z"]}}-->

Just FYI, there are plenty of articles missing from both those maps. A lot of what I Geotagged in the last year is missing.

Regarding the major areas of Ljubljana, as Eleassar points out, this is very interesting. It highlights the need for individual coverage of the former settlements in the City Municipality of Ljubljana (as has been done for Kočevje, Dolenjske Toplice, etc.). Because places like Bizovik, Dobrunje, Fužine, Hrušica, Slape, Vevče, etc. have been absorbed into Ljubljana, it's inappropriate to cover them all in detail in the Ljubljana article itself (which tends to focus in central Ljubljana), and so they've become information black holes, as the geotagging map clearly shows (and the Google Map as well—thanks for pointing this out, U5K0). It looks like there's a similar (but smaller) black hole around the city of Maribor. I'm currently working on a Dobrunje article that I'll roll out soon.

U5K0, are you sure you're seeing English Wikipedia links in Google Maps? All I see are Slovene Wikipedia links, which is probably due to Google detecting my location. When zooming out, it combines English and Slovene links, and there's no obvious way that I could find to filter out either. Stable link to what I see is https://maps.google.com/?ll=46.147492,15.523682&spn=1.461387,2.296143&t=h&z=9&lci=org.wikipedia.sl .

Not easily, I think. There's CatScan which you can run twice for :en and :sl then compare output, but with any greater depth, it'll get sidetracked because the category tree isn't really a tree (except on small scale). Plus, it limits output to 1000. Could be useful for small-scale queries, though, such as "Mountains in Slovenia". Wikidata will be more suited for such tasks once it is finished. — Yerpo ^Eh? 06:59, 14 November 2012 (UTC)[reply]__DTELLIPSISBUTTON__{"threadItem":{"timestamp":"2012-11-14T06:59:00.000Z","author":"Yerpo","type":"comment","level":4,"id":"c-Yerpo-2012-11-14T06:59:00.000Z-U5K0-2012-11-12T22:49:00.000Z","replies":[]}}-->

I found another map at http://www.geonames.org/maps/wikipedia.html It has the limitation of displaying only 50 points on any level of zoom, so it's only useful for areas in which there are fewer than 50 geotagged items.

As you probably know, there is a multitude of different regionalisations of Slovenia. I'm trying to organise the categories 'X in Slovenia' by regions, to make them smaller and therefore more practical (everything still functions on a regional basis in this country), but would ask you for your opinion about whether it is better to categorise by traditional regions or by statistical regions. Traditional regions seem better to me, because they're not so small (the number of articles is still limited) and they're much better known. However, there are certain municipalities that are divided between the traditional regions (e.g. Brežice), but are part of only one statistical region. --Eleassar ^{my talk} 19:45, 23 February 2013 (UTC)[reply]__DTELLIPSISBUTTON__{"threadItem":{"timestamp":"2013-02-23T19:45:00.000Z","author":"Eleassar","type":"comment","level":1,"id":"c-Eleassar-2013-02-23T19:45:00.000Z-Regionalisation_of_Slovenia_in_Wikipedia","replies":["c-Doremo-2013-03-21T21:44:00.000Z-Eleassar-2013-02-23T19:45:00.000Z"]}}-->

I agree that the traditional regions are psychologically more reified for people. However, if the traditional regions are used, one must choose which version of the traditional region to use. For example, Carinthia is now larger than it was in the past (having absorbed part of Slovene Styria, and apparently still expanding according to locals), and Inner Carniola is now smaller than it was in the past (part of it having been absorbed by the Littoral).

A CFD discussion has produced a consensus to rename Category:Featured articles needing translation from Slovenian Wikipedia to [[:Category:Featured articles needing translation from Slovene Wikipedia].

However, this decision appears to be impossible to implement for technical reasons, which i have set out in the discussion. The category is populated by Template:Expand language, which relies on a language code, in this case "sl". That code is turned into a word by the inbuilt parser function {{#language:{{{langcode|}}}|en}}, in this case {{#language:sl|en}} ... which produces the output Slovenian.

I presume that it would in theory be possible to have this changed at the server level, but unless the parser functions are changed, the category must remain "Slovenian".

Does this project want to seek such a change? It would have wide implications for templates.

I note that Wikipedia:Naming conventions (Slovenian vs Slovene) is marked as historical guidance. Does the project have a current consensus on this terminology? --BrownHairedGirl (talk) • (contribs) 10:01, 21 December 2013 (UTC)[reply]__DTELLIPSISBUTTON__{"threadItem":{"timestamp":"2013-12-21T10:01:00.000Z","author":"BrownHairedGirl","type":"comment","level":1,"id":"c-BrownHairedGirl-2013-12-21T10:01:00.000Z-Country_code_sl=Slovenian","replies":["c-Eleassar-2013-12-23T08:36:00.000Z-BrownHairedGirl-2013-12-21T10:01:00.000Z","c-Doremo-2013-12-23T08:55:00.000Z-BrownHairedGirl-2013-12-21T10:01:00.000Z"]}}-->

There has been some disagreement about whether the things related to Slovenia (the country) should be called Slovene or Slovenian, but as to the language and the nation, a general agreement that these should be called Slovene.

I believe putting this information in the lead gives a wrong impression, and should be included elsewhere. All the examples you mention are still strongly affiliated with German-speaking areas, so they aren't comparable, besides, WP:OTHERSTUFF. Generally, exonyms aren't featured so prominently where they have no modern relevance. The solution that you implemented in Kandrše, Zagorje ob Savi (i.e. making a separate section for etymology and including the historical name there) is much better, now the translation can be removed from the lead without losing sourced info. — Yerpo ^Eh? 13:07, 15 January 2014 (UTC)[reply]__DTELLIPSISBUTTON__{"threadItem":{"timestamp":"2014-01-15T13:07:00.000Z","author":"Yerpo","type":"comment","level":2,"id":"c-Yerpo-2014-01-15T13:07:00.000Z-Doremo-2014-01-15T10:42:00.000Z","replies":["c-Doremo-2014-01-15T14:06:00.000Z-Yerpo-2014-01-15T13:07:00.000Z"]}}-->

Thank you for your answer. I think the exonym should be retained in the lead because it's covered by the guideline here: "The lead: ... Relevant foreign language names (... or is used by a group of people which used to inhabit this geographical place) are permitted." Part of the population in the area was German-speaking, and so it’s a historically and culturally relevant name. In the case of the Czech towns, the German population was expelled, so there is not a stronger affiliatiation with German-speaking areas, but the names are nonetheless included as historically and culturally relevant. WP:NCGN also offers a "known also by several alternative names" link option, but that would be longer and more complicated than the current solution. In the specific case of Kandrše, it was also the administrative center of a local district, and so the German name had administrative relevance, in addition to cultural and historical, and thus appears in various administrative contexts (e.g., here [13]). The lead also won't give any "wrong impressions" (of modern bilingualism?) because a truly bilingual place would would use conventions like boldface and "or" in the lead and in the infobox (e.g., Uccle, Forest, Graubünden, etc.).

Sorry, but no modern relevance exists here, only historical. The exonym doesn't exist outside archives, so it isn't used by any group of people (unless you find a modern reference, which I couldn't). Therefore, it is not covered by the guideline you mention. Besides, to understand the difference between bold and italic in this case, you have to be very familiar with Wikipedia conventions, which casual readers aren't, so yes, it would imply bilingualism to the average visitor. The name is historically relevant for the reasons you mention, but that belongs to the body of the article. — Yerpo ^Eh? 14:23, 15 January 2014 (UTC)[reply]__DTELLIPSISBUTTON__{"threadItem":{"timestamp":"2014-01-15T14:23:00.000Z","author":"Yerpo","type":"comment","level":4,"id":"c-Yerpo-2014-01-15T14:23:00.000Z-Doremo-2014-01-15T14:06:00.000Z","replies":["c-Doremo-2014-01-15T14:44:00.000Z-Yerpo-2014-01-15T14:23:00.000Z"]}}-->

The guideline cited above, "used by a group of people which used to inhabit this geographical place," appears to clearly cover this. It doesn't mention modern references. Even without modern references, it still retains modern relevance for people trying to find Kandersche today.

You left out the key word: "is used by a group of people" - present tense, implying recent use (which makes a lot of practical sense if you think about it). As far as I can tell, it hasn't been used in over a century. Moving the exonym out of the lead while retaining it in the body would in no way affect searching, but would resolve the ambiguity that I mentioned above. — Yerpo ^Eh? 15:19, 15 January 2014 (UTC)[reply]__DTELLIPSISBUTTON__{"threadItem":{"timestamp":"2014-01-15T15:19:00.000Z","author":"Yerpo","type":"comment","level":6,"id":"c-Yerpo-2014-01-15T15:19:00.000Z-Doremo-2014-01-15T14:44:00.000Z","replies":["c-Doremo-2014-01-15T17:32:00.000Z-Yerpo-2014-01-15T15:19:00.000Z"]}}-->

If the intent of the guideline is that historical names are forfeited after all emigrants have died, then I can't offer a counterargument (although I also can't prove that all of the area's former German-speaking residents are now dead). It's unlikely that a casual reader of the Kandrše article will be confused by the italicized name Kandersche in parentheses, given the title, the bold in the lead, the infobox, and the map label. Because there is only one exonym, it would be inefficient to add a "known also by an alternative name" link in the lead—and, if the article had no Name section (most don't), then there would be no such section to link to.

The guideline, as I understand it, doesn't refer to anyone dying, but to actual usage of an exonym - which can be easily proven by recent references. And there is a third choice, beside putting the name itself or a reference to it in the lead - moving it away to the "History" or "Name" section of the article. Position in the lead always implies direct and tangible relevance to the article's subject - which just doesn't exist in this case, so it is misleading to feature the exonym so prominently. But let's hear other opinions before going further. — Yerpo ^Eh? 21:28, 15 January 2014 (UTC)[reply]__DTELLIPSISBUTTON__{"threadItem":{"timestamp":"2014-01-15T21:28:00.000Z","author":"Yerpo","type":"comment","level":10,"id":"c-Yerpo-2014-01-15T21:28:00.000Z-Doremo-2014-01-15T20:22:00.000Z","replies":["c-Tone-2014-02-23T10:12:00.000Z-Yerpo-2014-01-15T21:28:00.000Z"]}}-->

As of January, the popular pages tool has moved from the Toolserver to Wikimedia Tool Labs. The code has changed significantly from the Toolserver version, but users should notice few differences. Please take a moment to look over your project's list for any anomalies, such as pages that you expect to see that are missing or pages that seem to have more views than expected. Note that unlike other tools, this tool aggregates all views from redirects, which means it will typically have higher numbers. (For January 2014 specifically, 35 hours of data is missing from the WMF data, which was approximated from other dates. For most articles, this should yield a more accurate number. However, a few articles, like ones featured on the Main Page, may be off).

Web tools, to replace the ones at tools:~alexz/pop, will become available over the next few weeks at toollabs:popularpages. All of the historical data (back to July 2009 for some projects) has been copied over. The tool to view historical data is currently partially available (assessment data and a few projects may not be available at the moment). The tool to add new projects to the bot's list is also available now (editing the configuration of current projects coming soon). Unlike the previous tool, all changes will be effective immediately. OAuth is used to authenticate users, allowing only regular users to make changes to prevent abuse. A visible history of configuration additions and changes is coming soon. Once tools become fully available, their toolserver versions will redirect to Labs.

If you have any questions, want to report any bugs, or there are any features you would like to see that aren't currently available on the Toolserver tools, see the updated FAQ or contact me on my talk page.

Hello there! As you may already know, most WikiProjects here on Wikipedia struggle to stay active after they've been founded. I believe there is a lot of potential for WikiProjects to facilitate collaboration across subject areas, so I have submitted a grant proposal with the Wikimedia Foundation for the "WikiProject X" project. WikiProject X will study what makes WikiProjects succeed in retaining editors and then design a prototype WikiProject system that will recruit contributors to WikiProjects and help them run effectively. Please review the proposal here and leave feedback. If you have any questions, you can ask on the proposal page or leave a message on my talk page. Thank you for your time!

Hello everyone!

You may have received a message from me earlier asking you to comment on my WikiProject X proposal. The good news is that WikiProject X is now live! In our first phase, we are focusing on research. At this time, we are looking for people to share their experiences with WikiProjects: good, bad, or neutral. We are also looking for WikiProjects that may be interested in trying out new tools and layouts that will make participating easier and projects easier to maintain. If you or your WikiProject are interested, check us out! Note that this is an opt-in program; no WikiProject will be required to change anything against its wishes. Please let me know if you have any questions. Thank you!

Note: To receive additional notifications about WikiProject X on this talk page, please add this page to Wikipedia:WikiProject X/Newsletter. Otherwise, this will be the last notification sent about WikiProject X.

Hello! I would like to draw your attention to the article on the Lipizzan. However, before we do that, let's take a quick look at how the French Wikipedia approaches the subject. Here is their lead paragraph:

Le lipizzan est une race de chevaux originaire de Slovénie, culturellement liée à l'École espagnole de Vienne en Autriche. Cette célèbre école, qui tire par ailleurs son nom des chevaux espagnols qui furent à l'origine de la race lipizzane, n'utilise en effet que des lipizzans. L'élevage du lipizzan remonte au xvie siècle, lorsque la famille impériale des Habsbourg décide de fonder un nouveau haras dans la localité slovène de Lipica dans la région vallonnée du Kras qui appartenait à l'époque à l'Empire autrichien. La race des lipizzans est menacée de disparition lors de la Seconde Guerre mondiale, mais l'intervention du général américain George S. Patton permet de sauver 250 chevaux, assurant la préservation de cette race à la longue histoire.

Even if you -- like me -- don't speak French, the above should be fairly easy to follow. It's a pretty standard description of the Lipizzan's origin, and most language editions of Wikipedia follow a similar pattern.

Now let's take a look at the first two paragraphs of the English-language edition -- the one that falls under the auspices of WikiProject Slovenia:

The Lipizzan or Lipizzaner (Czech: Lipicán, Croatian: Lipicanac, Hungarian: Lipicai, Italian: Lipizzano, Slovene: Lipicanec), is a breed of horse closely associated with the Spanish Riding School of Vienna, Austria, where they demonstrate the haute école or "high school" movements of classical dressage, including the highly controlled, stylized jumps and other movements known as the "airs above the ground." The horses at the Spanish Riding School are trained using traditional methods that date back hundreds of years, based on the principles of classical dressage.

The Lipizzan breed dates back to the 16th century, when it was developed with the support of the Habsburg nobility. The breed takes its name from one of the earliest stud farms established, located near the Karst Plateau village of Lipica (spelled "Lipizza" in Italian), in modern-day Slovenia. The breed has been endangered numerous times by warfare sweeping Europe, including during the War of the First Coalition, World War I and World War II. The rescue of the LThe ipizzans during World War II by American troops was made famous by the Disney movie Miracle of the White Stallions. Along with the Disney movie, Lipizzans have also starred or played supporting roles in many movies, TV shows, books and other media.

Notice anything? Compared to just about any other source, the role of the Lipica stud farm is thoroughly minimized. And that's not all. This is how the Lipizzan's country of origin is described in the Infobox:

Developed by the House of Habsburg from Arab, Barb, Spanish and Neapolitan stock.[1] Today associated with nations of Austria, Hungary, Slovenia and Croatia.

Several users have attempted to at least add a mention of Lipica to this line, but they have always been reverted. I was recently called a "Slovenian nationalist" for including a reference to Lipica. According to the editor who reverted my addition, Lipica is just one of many stud farms where the breed originated and should never be singled out. (I'm still scratching my head over this "theory of many origins.")

In other words, there appears to be a significant discrepancy between the English-language article on the Lipizzan and just about any other source (incl. Wikipedia articles in other languages). Maybe the article is simply more accurate, and everyone else has been brainwashed by Slovenian nationalist propaganda. Of course, the other option is that its editors are pushing a point of view that is neither neutral nor accurate.

• This is getting out of hand. He is making unsubstantiated and unilateral moves of articles and it seems he is failing (or not willing) to present his arguments. He has also made a move of the Ljudski vrt article to "People's Garden Stadium" and this for the second time (that I know of - once in 2012). I have reverted all of his edits regarding Ljudski vrt and warned him on his talk page to stop with this vandalism as he has no consensus. I have also presented my case on the article's talk page.

I think Category:Slovenian literature should be merged with Category:Slovene literature (which is not tagged on its talk page as "within the scope of WikiProject Slovenia"). I suppose that Category:Slovenian literature should be empty (like Category:Slovenian given names). I also think that Category:Slovene books by writer should be moved to Category:Books by Slovene writers. (Edit: Whoops ...different meaning of "by".) I'll edit the affected pages when I get time.

I found some Slovenia-related articles recently. When I was looking through them, I noticed that some city, district, or settlement title disambiguators used the "comma, region" method (example: Dolgo Brdo, Ljubljana) while others used the "parentheses for region" method (example: Slape (Ljubljana).) Per Wikipedia:Naming conventions (geographic names), the standard recommendation is to use the "comma, region" method unless there is a specific exception mentioned in the "Region-specific guidance" section. Since I noticed that on Template:Ljubljana that there are several examples of both naming methods, is there a set precedent in how place title disambiguation is done for Slovenia-related place articles?

• Comment: I am unaware of any such discussion on this topic for Slovenia.

Why not gathering information in one central article about mass graves and make a one-sentence links in the village articles under the history section instead?

Grabyton misrepresents the situation; only about 290 of the approximately 6,000 settlements in Slovenia contain mass graves (less than 5% of Slovenian villages, certainly not "every village in Slovenia"). Covering the 600 mass grave sites in one single article (there is already a centralized article with links: see Mass graves in Slovenia) would be cumbersome and would remove local history from many articles, where it is much better contextualized.

From what I saw this is undoubtedly some kind of political propaganda by Doremo. If you look carefully to Doremo profile, you can see he is frequently adding material about mass graves to Wikipedia, undoubtedly trying to show all crimes of one political group. This crimes deserves to be mention (with an explanation why this has occurred!), but certainly not every hole there is. One article about mass graves in Slovenia is enough, maximum few articles for every region in Slovenia.

It seems that people prefer content of mass graves in one article or in lesser number, but certainly not for every village.

That is a suggestion to delete sourced local historical information from about 290 articles. Broader consensus is needed for such a large-scale change. It is also functionally equivalent to declaring that no village article should include any information on, say, local castles, or ponds, or churches.

Hi. The Wikipedia:WikiProject Europe/The 10,000 Challenge ‎ has recently started, based on the UK/Ireland Wikipedia:The 10,000 Challenge and Wikipedia:WikiProject Africa/The 10,000 Challenge. The idea is not to record every minor edit, but to create a momentum to motivate editors to produce good content improvements and creations and inspire people to work on more countries than they might otherwise work on. If anybody here would like to contribute to a European one or would rather contribute to a sub one specifically for Slovenia like Wikipedia:The 1000 Challenge (Slovenia) based on Wikipedia:The 1000 Challenge (Nordic), sign your name under the section for Slovenia and I'll start it if there is enough support. For this to really work we need diversity and exciting content and editors from a broad range of countries regularly contributing. At some stage we hope to run some contests to benefit Slovene and European content, a destubathon perhaps, aimed at reducing the stub count would be a good place to start, based on the current Wikipedia:WikiProject Africa/The Africa Destubathon. If you would like to see this happening for Slovenia and European nations, and see potential in this attracting more interest and editors for the country/countries you work on please sign up and being contributing to the challenge! This is a way we can target every country of Europe, and steadily vastly improve the encyclopedia. We need numbers to make this work so consider signing up as a participant!♦ Dr. Blofeld 20:30, 26 October 2016 (UTC)[reply]__DTELLIPSISBUTTON__{"threadItem":{"timestamp":"2016-10-26T20:30:00.000Z","author":"Dr. Blofeld","type":"comment","level":1,"id":"c-Dr._Blofeld-2016-10-26T20:30:00.000Z-The_10,000_Challenge","replies":[]}}-->

Greetings WikiProject Slovenia Members!

This is a one-time-only message to inform you about a technical proposal to revive your Popular Pages list in the 2016 Community Wishlist Survey that I think you may be interested in reviewing and perhaps even voting for:

• Fix and improve Mr.Z-bot's popular pages report

If the above proposal gets in the Top 10 based on the votes, there is a high likelihood of this bot being restored so your project will again see monthly updates of popular pages.

Further, there are over 260 proposals in all to review and vote for, across many aspects of wikis.

Thank you for your consideration. Please note that voting for proposals continues through December 12, 2016.

Grabyton, WP is not the place for political warfare to promote your personal likes or dislikes. If you believe that sources for historical material are unreliable, you should challenge those sources on the article talk page, not engage in mass deletions. I agree that the history sections of many articles need to be expanded. That is not a reason to delete well-sourced historical information already there. You can add an Expand section tag to articles that need additional material in their history sections. WP grows piece by piece, not by destroying sections that are incomplete.

I should also add that Grabyton's suggestion is a classic example of cherrypicking content.

You can find this discussion 5 sections higher with title Opinion about extensive mass grave content for every village in Slovenia. Discussion about this content was also active on Talk:Brezovica pri Borovnici. This is absolute violation of the Wikipedia rules. All mass grave content was again reverted by user Doremo. Content will be again deleted after this discussion. If Doremo will again violate rules after this, I suggest user should be banned from Wikipedia. Political frustrations should not be part of Wikipedia and should not represent our country. All settlements on the world have dead people buried under them, with this and other reasons. How would it look if all places would have only grave content?

The relevant issue here is whether information is factual, well-sourced, and presented in a neutral and scholarly manner. Regarding "How would it look...", please remember that WP is not a travel guide (WP:NOTTRAVEL). If you are seeking to promote an image of Slovenia, Wikivoyage would be a good place to contribute.

I remember discussion about this from last year. This is one big disgrace for all administrators and Wikipedia who allow this kind of vandalism and do not punish authors like Doremo.

Hi guys, over the past few weeks the article Free Territory of Trieste has been edited to contend that it was never dissolved, and still exists as a sovereign state. This seems to me to be manifestly wrong and a fringe theory (see for example this website), and I don't think the cited sources support this contention at all. Similar content seems to have been previously inserted into the article years ago and subsequently removed, as documented on the article's talk page. I have no expertise on the matter, so thought I would alert potentially interested parties.

Wikipedia has many thousands of wikilinks which point to disambiguation pages. It would be useful to readers if these links directed them to the specific pages of interest, rather than making them search through a list. Members of WikiProject Disambiguation have been working on this and the total number is now below 20,000 for the first time. Some of these links require specialist knowledge of the topics concerned and therefore it would be great if you could help in your area of expertise.

A list of the relevant links on pages which fall within the remit of this wikiproject can be found at http://69.142.160.183/~dispenser/cgi-bin/topic_points.py?banner=WikiProject_Slovenia

The reason I am contacting you is because there are one or more portals that fall under this subject, and the Portals WikiProject is currently undertaking a major drive to automate portals that may affect them.

Portals are being redesigned.

The new design features are being applied to existing portals.

At present, we are gearing up for a maintenance pass of portals in which the introduction section will be upgraded to no longer need a subpage. In place of static copied and pasted excerpts will be self-updating excerpts displayed through selective transclusion, using the template {{Transclude lead excerpt}}.

The discussion about this can be found here.

Maintainers of specific portals are encouraged to sign up as project members here, noting the portals they maintain, so that those portals are skipped by the maintenance pass. Currently, we are interested in upgrading neglected and abandoned portals. There will be opportunity for maintained portals to opt-in later, or the portal maintainers can handle upgrading (the portals they maintain) personally at any time.

On April 8th, 2018, an RfC ("Request for comment") proposal was made to eliminate all portals and the portal namespace. On April 17th, the Portals WikiProject was rebooted to handle the revitalization of the portal system. On May 12th, the RfC was closed with the result to keep portals, by a margin of about 2 to 1 in favor of keeping portals.

There's an article in the current edition of the Signpost interviewing project members about the RfC and the Portals WikiProject.

Since the reboot, the Portals WikiProject has been busy building tools and components to upgrade portals.

So far, 84 editors have joined.

If you would like to keep abreast of what is happening with portals, see the newsletter archive.

If you have any questions about what is happening with portals or the Portals WikiProject, please post them on the WikiProject's talk page.

Dear members of WikiProject Slovenia,

as per discussion of the talk page of the Slovene Lands, I would like to establish a consensus for historic names. Since I have taken part, cared, involved many of such cases regarding i.e. mainly the former Kingdom of Hungary (not exclusively, sometimes to the Austrian Empire, or Germany, however, there is no limitation), I would add my proposals as having more years experience.

- Generally, in the existing WP articles contemporary (= historic) namings are applied without any doubt in the infobox and regarding the place of birth (sometimes it discussed whether which should be in the first place, but nothing else)

- Based on the context of the article (when the article refers to a specific historic context, or the article itself is about such a context, or a biography of a person is at that historic context) we apply historic namings (first place order sometimes discussed)

- Generally, in case to decide, the following is applied (in order of succesion and applicability; i.e. if one is fulfilled we don't go further):

a, specify the current status quo of date and time, if it has a well-established historic English name (like Pressburg) it will be applied.

b, if there is not an official language of the country (that was mainly applied in the modern era), we use the name recorded in documents the most near to the current time in the first place, after the modern name (if the recorded name corresponds to the general used name by the people, the orthography may be bended in written that is used by the country's language - sometimes applied to Latin records, that are used only in written but never in real life)

c, if there is an official language then, the name is written according to this - if changing during the administration, bending to that that is the most near to the current date and time - in the first place, after the modern name comes the second place

Practically, I care about much precisity to follow this order, to be the most accuarate.

1, My proposal would be, that in clearly Slovenia related articles at least when contemporary conditions are referred, let the Hungarian names in the second place in brackets to identify

2, In Hungary related articles please allow contemporary Hungarian names in the first place and the modern name the second, unless

- the article of a clearly Slovene person (= not a Hungarian or not considering itself Hungarian or not of mixed background) or clearly Slovene context, this case let only the infobox/birtplace data in the contemporary order, but the rest of the article only in the second place identify comtemporary name at first occurence

This proposal is not necessarily more that is applied and accepted the same regarding, Austria, Slovakia, Ukraine, Romania, Serbia and Crotia. Thank you for your time and your comments are welcome - would suggest despite the reference above to an article's talk page, let's discuss here. Thank You(KIENGIR (talk) 17:34, 13 November 2018 (UTC))[reply]__DTELLIPSISBUTTON__{"threadItem":{"timestamp":"2018-11-13T17:34:00.000Z","author":"KIENGIR","type":"comment","level":1,"id":"c-KIENGIR-2018-11-13T17:34:00.000Z-Consensus_for_historic_names","replies":["c-Doremo-2018-11-13T17:59:00.000Z-KIENGIR-2018-11-13T17:34:00.000Z"]}}-->

I think historical names are interesting and that they always should be available at articles where what they refer to is the primary topic. However, sprinkling them inconsistently through running text when they are not the topic of the article (and are already clearly available at the links), as at Slovene Lands, simply degrades readability. Thank you for taking the discussion to WikiProject Slovenia.

Doremo, (I reply also here and will continue here since the same message you posted in the other article's talk page), as you may notice, on the contrary I am hyper-sharply consistent and careful, and only apply it when it is about the topic. I have to reinforce, that in such cases, only the link would not be enough, since a few people check and even not necessarily now the former status quo or identified there, because sometimes anyway a location has more historic names because of a mixed population (but it should not be confused of that validity and arbitration of the names, as referred above). With this it makes clear in proper environments what is it about, otherwise it the whole meaning ofd the concept would loose.

Respectively, in the Slovenian Lands article I was totally consistent and accurate, similary as thousands of other other articles regarding the naming convention. The fact only I dealt with former contemporary Hungarian names as per status quo, it does not raise inconsistency, also in that relevant section the non-Hungarian cases may be applied, as per former status quo (= we should not be against any improvement just because it is not fully completed, later it may be developed, as it is done generally in Wiki articles, also out of this context.(KIENGIR (talk) 18:47, 13 November 2018 (UTC))[reply]__DTELLIPSISBUTTON__{"threadItem":{"timestamp":"2018-11-13T18:47:00.000Z","author":"KIENGIR","type":"comment","level":3,"id":"c-KIENGIR-2018-11-13T18:47:00.000Z-Doremo-2018-11-13T17:59:00.000Z","replies":[]}}-->

Hello and greetings from the maintainers of the WP 1.0 Bot! As you may or may not know, we are currently involved in an overhaul of the bot, in order to make it more modern and maintainable. As part of this process, we will be rewriting the web tool that is part of the project. You might have noticed this tool if you click through the links on the project assessment summary tables.

Looking for opinions on whether municipal coats of arms should appear only at municipality articles (e.g., Municipality of Apače) or also at the article for the settlement that serves as the municipal seat (e.g., Apače). The latter seems odd to me. Thanks.

Some cases are clear-cut, such as Ljubljana (urban municipality), or Škofja Loka, seat of a municipality -these are historic coats of arms. Many of those small municipalities formed after the independence and the seals were created on purpose for the municipality, not the settlement. So, for those, probably just for municipality. --Tone 18:42, 19 May 2020 (UTC)[reply]__DTELLIPSISBUTTON__{"threadItem":{"timestamp":"2020-05-19T18:42:00.000Z","author":"Tone","type":"comment","level":2,"id":"c-Tone-2020-05-19T18:42:00.000Z-Doremo-2020-05-19T03:28:00.000Z","replies":[]}}-->

This draft was declined for a reason that doesn't really make sense. I think it probably could be an article, but I hate accepting thinly sourced articles about massacres in the area of ethno-national disputes without being able to read good sources myself. Thoughts?

Hello. I'm compiling a list of the first women MPs in each country, but have been unable to find the answer for Slovenia.

I have (with the help of others) made a small user script to detect and highlight various links to unreliable sources and predatory journals. Some of you may already be familiar with it, given it is currently the 39th most imported script on Wikipedia. The idea is that it takes something like

• John Smith "Article of things" Deprecated.com. Accessed 2020-02-14. (John Smith "[https://www.deprecated.com/article Article of things]" ''Deprecated.com''. Accessed 2020-02-14.)

and turns it into something like

• John Smith "Article of things" Deprecated.com. Accessed 2020-02-14.

It will work on a variety of links, including those from {{cite web}}, {{cite journal}} and {{doi}}.

The script is mostly based on WP:RSPSOURCES, WP:NPPSG and WP:CITEWATCH and a good dose of common sense. I'm always expanding coverage and tweaking the script's logic, so general feedback and suggestions to expand coverage to other unreliable sources are always welcomed.

Do note that this is not a script to be mindlessly used, and several caveats apply. Details and instructions are available at User:Headbomb/unreliable. Questions, comments and requests can be made at User talk:Headbomb/unreliable.

Hello!

Our of boredom, I am trying to identify the languages of inscriptions on a fountain located in central Budapest. I could easily identify some languages such as Hebrew, Armenian, Russian, English, French, Spanish etc. but I have trouble with some, mostly Slavic, languages which I do not speak myself. I guess that they must include Czech (or Slovak), Slovene, Croatian/Serbian/Bosniak, Macedonian, Bulgarian and/or maybe others.

Translations of 'The place is ours':

• Trg je naš / Площадьт е наш (pretty sure that's Bulgarian) / Naš trg / Nas trg / [unreadable] naše je námestie

Translations of 'Non potable water':

• Водата не е за пиене / Voda ni pitna / Непитна вода / Nepitná voda / Nepitka voda / Voda nije za piće

Translations of 'Open lawn':

• Ходенето по тревата е разрешено / Dozvoljeno je gaziti (ǧaziti?) po travi / Dozvoljeno gaženje trave

I also do not manage to identify the language in 3 other inscriptions for which glossaries easily available online did not help. Could it be Romani?

• Náj lasó ráji / Ámáro szi o placo / Pécsár saj ustarén

Is anyone here able to tell which is which? Note that many inscriptions (such as in French and Greek) have spelling mistakes and inconsistent respect of diacritics.

Quality assessments by Wikipedia editors rate articles in terms of completeness, organization, prose quality, sourcing, etc. Most wikiprojects follow the general guidelines at Wikipedia:Content assessment, but some have specialized assessment guidelines. A recent Village pump proposal was approved and has been implemented to add a |class= parameter to {{WikiProject banner shell}}, which can display a general quality assessment for an article, and to let project banner templates "inherit" this assessment.

No action is required if your wikiproject follows the standard assessment approach. Over time, quality assessments will be migrated up to {{WikiProject banner shell}}, and your project banner will automatically "inherit" any changes to the general assessments for the purpose of assigning categories.

However, if your project has decided to "opt out" and follow a non-standard quality assessment approach, all you have to do is modify your wikiproject banner template to pass {{WPBannerMeta}} a new |QUALITY_CRITERIA=custom parameter. If this is done, changes to the general quality assessment will be ignored, and your project-level assessment will be displayed and used to create categories, as at present.

If it is of any help, the Nuskova source has the coordinates 46°48′38″N 16°01′31″E / 46.810521°N 16.025228°E / 46.810521; 16.025228 in the Slovene Wikipedia. --TadejM ^{my talk} 12:08, 6 June 2023 (UTC)[reply]__DTELLIPSISBUTTON__{"threadItem":{"timestamp":"20230606120800","author":"TadejM","type":"comment","level":1,"id":"c-TadejM-20230606120800-List_of_valued_natural_features_of_Slovenia","replies":[]}}-->

Hello WikiProject Slovenia:

WikiProject Women in Green is holding a month-long Good Article Edit-a-thon event in October 2023!

Running from October 1 to 31, 2023, WikiProject Women in Green (WiG) is hosting a Good Article (GA) edit-a-thon event with the theme Around the World in 31 Days! All experience levels welcome. Never worked on a GA project before? We'll teach you how to get started. Or maybe you're an old hand at GAs – we'd love to have you involved! Participants are invited to work on nominating and/or reviewing GA submissions related to women and women's works (e.g., books, films) during the event period. We hope to collectively cover article subjects from at least 31 countries (or broader international articles) by month's end. GA resources and one-on-one support will be provided by experienced GA editors, and participants will have the opportunity to earn a special WiG barnstar for their efforts.

We hope to see you there!

An IP editor has recently been changing the (usual) single photo in the image skyline parameter to photomontages in Infobox settlement templates (e.g., at Kočevje, Lendava, Ajdovščina); these have often resulted in significant white space in the photomontage and duplication of photos that are used in more relevant sections (e.g., History, Geography, etc.). My own opinion is that these recently created photomontages look clumsy and cluttered, but I'm no arbiter of good taste. Does anyone else feel that these articles would be better served by a single representative photo in the image skyline parameter? Thanks.

I think they are moderately ok, with room for improvement. A skyline for settlements of this size can often be rather bland, just a bunch of houses from above/afar. A collage gives you a quicker glimpse at some landmarks. Like Ljubljana, or, if you want to go bigger, London or Paris. Now, for those particular cases, Kočevje and Ajdovščina are obviously using the same images later on in text which is a bad idea, and Lendava is using the castle picture twice, from two perspectives. So I'd say, a collage is fine if done properly. If. --Tone 14:37, 22 November 2023 (UTC)[reply]__DTELLIPSISBUTTON__{"threadItem":{"timestamp":"20231122143700","author":"Tone","type":"comment","level":2,"id":"c-Tone-20231122143700-Doremo-20231122142500","replies":[]}}-->

Hello! I have an open request on the Dragan Šolak (businessman) talk page editors here may be interested in. This has to do with a section about Slovenian government misconduct that N1 (owned by Šolak) investigated. I am happy to answer any questions on the talk page.

I came across an interesting case of a Slovenian athlete whose surname is variously spelled in different Slovenian sources. Would be nice if someone could help figure out the best way forward there.
