Le Moment
Aside from a couple of passing mentions (1, 2, 3), I've not unearthed anything substantive so far. - Biruitorul Talk 22:42, 2 November 2012 (UTC)
- Hi. I had contemplated writing an entry on Hefter myself, but the lack of sources (including printed ones) is discouraging, and, as you may have noticed, Hefter was a very controversial figure in his native country. The same goes for his Le Moment, alas. I'll keep an eye out, though, and hopefully be back with something more substantial. Dahn (talk) 18:25, 4 November 2012 (UTC)

RE: Ism
http://www.google.com/search?q=%22neo-Ba%27th%22&btnG=Search+Books&tbm=bks&tbo=1 ... "Neo-Ba'th". + a search on "normal" Google gives 94 thousand hits, if it is spelled neo-Ba'ath. --TIAYN (talk) 12:32, 5 November 2012 (UTC)
- thats wrong, the word was first coined in 1968 by Avraham Ben Tzur in his article "The Neo-Ba'th Party of Syria"... In this text Tzur writes about the creation of a new ideology, hence neo-Ba'th. While he does not use the word neo-Ba'thism, he believes that the Ba'ath Party from 1966 onwards should be referred to neo-Ba'th because of the dramatic changes in its ideological outlook. There are many who refer to the ideology which came into shape in 1966, and which keeps on to this day, as neo-Ba'athism.. While some, arguably the minority, uses neo-Ba'th to only describe Salah Jadid's regime.. I don't get what's the problem here. Neo-Ba'athism redirects to Ba'athism page, and clearly explains (maybe I need to clarify??) why the term neo-Ba'athism is used instead of ba'athism. --TIAYN (talk) 16:13, 5 November 2012 (UTC)

What did you mean by "Organization"
At Talk:Palestinian_National_Authority#Organization_or_Place.3F there seams to be some confusion over weather by "organization" you meant "an autonomous geopolitical entity with specific territory - similar to Hong Kong", or if you meant an "organization" like the Government of Hong Kong or the Kurdistan Regional Government". Could you clarify please? Emmette Hernandez Coleman (talk) 02:59, 21 November 2012 (UTC)

Különös ismertetőjel
Hey there. Since I've saw you contributing to my DYK I happened to visit your userpage. I noticed your last creation is a Hungary-related topic, and since I don't know what nationality are you from, and suppose you need help, I will gladly translate some Hungarian sources you'll find if you are considering expansion of this article. Cheers. Lajbi Holla @ me • CP 09:29, 23 November 2012 (UTC)

Orphaned non-free media (File:Gencparti.PNG)
Thanks for uploading File:Gencparti.PNG. The media description page currently specifies that it is non-free and may only be used on Wikipedia under a claim of fair use. However, it is currently orphaned, meaning that it is not used in any articles on Wikipedia. If the media was previously in an article, please go to the article and see why it was removed. You may add it back if you think that that will be useful. However, please note that media for which a replacement could be created are not acceptable for use on Wikipedia (see our policy for non-free media).
If you have uploaded other unlicensed media, please check whether they're used in any articles or not. You can find a list of 'file' pages you have edited by clicking on the "my contributions" link (it is located at the very top of any Wikipedia page when you are logged in), and then selecting "File" from the dropdown box. Note that all non-free media not used in any articles will be deleted after seven days, as described on criteria for speedy deletion. Thank you. Hazard-Bot (talk) 04:09, 27 November 2012 (UTC)

United Left (Spain) seats totals
Hello Soman, per WP:BRD can we now discuss this on talk? While I see your point about strained relations, they only really apply to the 2000 election. At every other election, reliable sources count ICV as part of the IU total, so I'm not sure why Wikipedia should take a different approach. Valenciano (talk) 17:23, 27 November 2012 (UTC)
