Sotiris Kakisis
[edit]Hi Chronographos, you posted a picture of Sotiris Kakisis. Where is this picture from. Please reply to user_talk:zanimum. Thanks! -- user:zanimum
- Same for Image:OlympiaStad1.gif. -- user:zanimum
- The Kakisis pic was sent to me by Kakisis himself for the Wikipedia entry.
The stadium pic is a frame I captured off of greek public TV last summer. - user:Chronographos
- Great, I've added the appropriate tags to the images. Image:OlympiaStad1.gif now has screencapture , and Image:SK1.gif has permission. In the future, try and find an appropriate tag from Wikipedia:Image copyright tags. It's a daunting list to pick through, but any of these folks (including me) will be more than happy to help. -- user:zanimum
Civility
[edit]The tone of voice you're directing at Decius will not help you win the discussion at Talk:Ancient Macedonian language. I suggest that you read Wikipedia:Civility. Thank you.--Wiglaf 07:12, 19 Jun 2005 (UTC)
- I am not "fighting to win" any discussion, Wiglaf. This is not kindergarten. I suggest you direct Decius to the Civility page instead of me. Then he may learn that calling people pricks and weasels is not accepted in civilized company. Nor is urinating out of windows.
Macedonian Slav Poll
[edit]There is a poll in the talk page of the Macedonian Slavs article here:
http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Talk:Macedonian_Slavs#The_poll
Some people are lobbying for changing the article's name to Macedonian without any qualifier. As it seems, a number of these people come from the Macedonian/Macedonian Slav wikipedia project. It seemed only fair to attract the attention of people possibly from the other side of the story .I hope that this message is of interest to you, if not please accept my apologies.
- No problem, nameless user, but I'm not interested in purges and politicking Chronographos 10:44, 20 Jun 2005 (UTC)
Greek pronounciation
[edit]great, I am glad you intend to stick around. Note that it is customary that if you want to do a writeup in peace, without other people interfering, you prepare an article in your user namespace, e.g. User:Chronographos/Greek pronounciation, and move it to article namespace once it is ready. dab (ᛏ) 12:31, 25 Jun 2005 (UTC)
- Why not stick around? No matter to me where the article is prepared, it's just that I don't really know when I'll have it ready, and I'd like to see other people's comments and contributions in the meantime. I am reading Babiniotis' book "Concise History of the Greek Language" and it has some fascinating stuff in it: for example, did you know that there is a 3rd century BC Beotian inscription that says "έυδομον" (seventh) instead of "έβδομον"? Chronographos 12:51, 25 Jun 2005 (UTC) (which indicates that u- diphthongs were already being pronounced the modern way, and that Beotian sheep were at least half the way towards learning proper vi vi bleating!)
I just discovered that you have already done partly what we are trying to do at Ancient Greek phonology. Did you abandon your project? Could we incorporate what you did in our article? I think that this would be a good idea. Greetings, Andreas 15:24, 3 December 2005 (UTC)
Decius
[edit]could you not just stop picking no Decius? As you may have noticed, he as stopped attacking you once he calmed down. I would just like to continue the debate in a friendly, or if that is impossible, at least calm atmosphere. I do appreciate that the level of the debate has risen considerably since you joined in. I have no preconceived notion of the situation in Macedon before 350 BC. It may be that the majority of people were just Dorians (those that didn't migrate), and just a minority of speakers of a weird dialect we now call Macedonian. I don't know, and I'll be happy if you adduce more evidence, either way. Unfortunately, as far as I can see (and I'm not a specialist on Greek), the katadesmos does not shed light on the question, since it doesn't combine elements that we can handle (NW or Doric) with the ones we are looking for (most prominently, the danon-for-thanon-bere-for-phere lack of unvoicing). If only Phila had been called Bila, or Dionysophon Dionysobon! As it is, it's just bad Doric, and we're not any wiser. dab (ᛏ) 16:27, 20 Jun 2005 (UTC)
- He will first apologize, then will I talk to him directly. I am not here to make sure he stays calm, that's his job. Notice how he says he thinks of Wikipedia as "entertainment". And then he proceeds to post one sentence every 15 minutes! If he lives in Romania, I guess his choices are pretty darn limited as far as entertainment goes. Not to mention that he probably has to collect his own firewood at winter, lest he freeze! My next taunt will be to ask him if the late Mrs. Gheorgiu was an etaira or a hetaira. Just joking!
- As a linguist, and a Swiss, I am sure you will appreciate how languages change over time and place. As you know much better than I do, there was a time when "German" was spoken in one huge smooth continuum from Flanders to Memel, and from the Alps to the fjords, with the language changing ever so slightly from one village to the next. And we know what happened since. Wiedemann's aphorism that "a language is a dialect with an army and a navy" goes a long way to explain it, but in this case Alexander's almighty army strangely chose a dialect further south! :) :) Chronographos 16:57, 20 Jun 2005 (UTC)
- The Language-dialect aphorism is usually attributed to Max Weinreich (quoting an unnamed colleague) -- if you have evidence for a Wiedemann (Alfred?, Ferdinand Johann?), perhaps you should contribute to that article. --Macrakis 16:29, 29 September 2005 (UTC)
I got interested because of the new fragment, and I'm now planning to hack together translations of the major fragments. Maybe you care to help, especially since you claim to be on talking terms with her :o) ? Because I can hardly guess what each word is supposed to mean, based on comparing a couple of translations... dab (ᛏ) 28 June 2005 09:22 (UTC)
- Easy, peasy. Have you located the new poem's Greek text yet? TLS will not arrive in Athens until tomorrow, and I can't wait. Chronographos 28 June 2005 09:34 (UTC)

- The "Tιθωνός" fragment is not there. We had the previous fragment: the question is whether we can get the new reconstruction as published by the TLS last week. Chronographos 28 June 2005 09:57 (UTC)

] αμφί δ' ύδωρ
] ψύχρον κελάδει δι' ύσδων
μαλίνων, αιθυσσομένων δε φύλλων
κώμα κατάρρει
cold water sings around the branches
of the apple tree, the leaves stir:
underneath, a deep sleep flows
Imagine the scene: someone sleeping under an apple tree by a brook. Yet what Sappho describes as a flowing stream is the sleep - the brook merely provides sounds that the leaves dance to. This is pure abstract poetry of the highest caliber ever. My best friend is the Sappho translator, and he is ecstatic to be able to use words that are practically identical to the original: κελάδει-κελαϊδά, μαλίνων-μηλίνων/μηλιά, φύλλων-φύλλων. Unfortunately κώμα is now used only in a medical context (coma), so ύπνος βαθύς is used instead. Hysdos is a double problem because (a) it is an Aeolian form of όζος and (b) όζος is literally the knot from which a branch grows, and metaphorically the branch itself, so in Modern Greek he has to opt for κλάδος or κλώνος. Only Dionysios Solomos has reached such heights of pure poetry, and only once: in the 3rd σχεδίασμα (sketch) of his unfinished "The free Besieged" poem. Hopefully we'll have the poem tomorrow night, and if I go to his house to watch the Brazil-Argentina game together, I'll scan it. What a scoop for WP. Chronographos 29 June 2005 01:27 (UTC)
- um, what is the "Tιθωνός" fragment, and what translation are you talking about here? I identified the lines, see Talk:Sappho, the second apyrus fragment begins line 5 of West's translation (while the first ten lines of fragment 58 seem not to belong to the poem?). But it's hopeless for me to decipher the papyrus, and I don't know Lesbian :( dab (ᛏ) 29 June 2005 10:22 (UTC)
- You are not paying any attention, are you? The Τιθωνός fragment is the previously known part of the poem which was now presented whole in TLS. Which was just obtained by my translator friend as of 20 minutes ago. I hope to have a scan of the text by tonight. The translation I am talking about is the one of the little haiku I quote above, in Modern Greek, and which I took the time and effort to translate into English for you. You must not be too enthusiastic about poetry, but do try to fake some enthusiasm! :-PPPP Chronographos 29 June 2005 10:44 (UTC)
- don't confuse me man. You mean "tithonos" is identical to "fragment 58"? I took you to mean that the sleepy bit was from there, which is, however, not fragment 58, but fragment 2,
- ἐν δ' ὔδωρ ψῦχρον κελάδει δι' ὔσδων / μαλίνων, βρόδοισι δὲ παῖς ὀ χῶρος / ἐσκίαστ', αἰθυσσομένων δὲ φύλλων / κῶμα †καταγριον·

- ok, I've got it. fragment 58 is also known as "Tithonos fragment" (in spite of the fact that the name is missing from the fragment), and your Haiku was a translation of fragment 2. makes sense. dab (ᛏ) 29 June 2005 13:58 (UTC)

The TLS translation is ok, except (I think) "άπαλον ... χρόα" which I would translate as "soft skin" rather than "tender body". Notice how the poem says "Βροδόπαχυν". How very "Macedonian". :-PPPP Chronographos 29 June 2005 23:42 (UTC)
excellent. can you supply the image page with a source notice? Is this scanned from TLS? Can you help me on Sappho, it appears someone didn't like the text of the fragments there. dab (ᛏ) 5 July 2005 12:00 (UTC)
- Yes, it's a scan from TLS. Now who is the copyright holder? TLS or Sappho?!?!? How can I help you with the fragments? Chronographos 5 July 2005 12:11 (UTC)

Do not engage in personal attacks, for any reason. I see that at talk:Albania you have made comments that other users have interpreted as personal attacks, and removed them per Wikipedia:Remove personal attacks which you then restored. I don't know the full ins and outs of the situation, and frankly I'm not interested in them, but a user has requested that you be blocked for 24 hours (allowable under the Wikipedia:No personal attacks policy) for your attacks. At this time I will not do so, but consider this a final warning - if you make any further personal attacks or restore comments others have deleted as personal attacks, then I will not hesitate to block you. Thryduulf 21:56, 21 July 2005 (UTC)
- Firstly, I did not restore anything that others deleted, ever. If you care to look the Talk:Albanians history entries (not the Talk:Albania one, as you wrongly stated), you will see that your allegation is wrong. Secondly, is one user's claim that a statement is a personal attack sufficient to establish a statement as a personal attack, or is the perceived personal attack reviewed and somehow adjudicated? I really need to know, and I think you'll agree that it's very important. Chronographos 22:10, 21 July 2005 (UTC)
- Chronographos it wasen't you who restored the talk page, it was Theathenae [[10]], but both of you have called me an Albanian terrorist sympathiser, and that is defentily an abuse.. personal attack and provocation and tries to drag my name through the mud. --Albanau 22:18, 21 July 2005 (UTC)
- Based on your Wiki-edits that there exists an Albanian guerilla "Liberation Army" (an alleged branch of the UCK) operating in Greece, I stated that I considered you a terrorist sympathiser. When you took exception to this, I asked you simply and directly on the matter, but you refused to answer. It hasn't anything to do with "mud", and it has everything to do with your article edits that propagate falsehoods: something you refuse to rectify. Chronographos 22:36, 21 July 2005 (UTC)
- There is no excuse what you have done.... when you ask question like "Are your feelings about the UCK groups still a "secret"?" is definitely an abuse and I erased that as you can see here, edit summary title: "There is no such term as Arvanites Greeks ...." Albanau 22:41, 21 July 2005 (UTC)

Sockpuppetry
[edit]No, regular users can only see someone's IP if they don't sign up. But sockpuppets are not only tracked down using IP numbers. The editor's style of writing, field of interest in articles and POV is taken into account in the determination as well. - Mgm|(talk) 23:44, July 21, 2005 (UTC)
- If you want possible sockpuppetry investigated, please ask at WP:AN/I. - Mgm|(talk) 09:05, July 22, 2005 (UTC)
Where to answer
[edit]- And an unrelated question, if I may: when exchanging messages on user talk pages, is it proper etiquette to answer an inquiry on the spot or to do so on the inquiring user's talk page?
- Personally, I find answering on the other user's talk page a good idea, because it'll generate a "new messages" header for them. Some people, however, answer on their own talk to avoid fragmentation of the discussion. In that case you should write a clear header on top of your talk page indicating this. - Mgm|(talk) 09:05, July 22, 2005 (UTC)
A question, why do you immediately react with ad hominem-arguments when your so called facts become questioned? It becomes incapable with you to speak with. Albanau 01:13, 24 July 2005 (UTC)

[edit]hi Cg -- I was away over the weekend, and am now trying to seriously reduce my wikitime; but you seem to be able to handle the confused Albanians quite well yourself. Plus there is always WP:AN/I for emergencies, it is even better to ask uninvolved admins to take action in cases of policy violation. I am still looking forward to your "exciting news" though. dab (ᛏ) 10:03, 25 July 2005 (UTC)
- Good for you on both counts! Still, I wonder what the proper course of action is/should be. For example Thryduulf comes and warns me sternly to lay off Albanau (although he mentions he hasn't really delved into what went on), yet Rama says he reviewed what happened and found nothing wrong with it. So whom am I to believe? Chronographos 10:15, 25 July 2005 (UTC) (I did post at WP:AN/I, but no one answered me)

Protest
[edit]Dear Chronographe,
I think that your verbal abuse against me in totally unacceptable. You repeatedly call me a liar without ever proving why; you keep insisting that I am not Greek, you haven't proved that either and above all, you made racist attacks against me because I am an Arvanite yesterday. I must insist that this all stop. You do not have the authority nor the position to treat you fellow Wikipedians this way. I suggest that you adopt a more civil tone in your posts and try not to force your views on other people without proving them.
Yours,
REX 21:43, 29 July 2005 (UTC)
- Nonsense. None of the above is true.
Not yours,
Chronographos 21:46, 29 July 2005 (UTC)
Have it your way. If you continue, I shall make a complaint about you. REX 22:02, 29 July 2005 (UTC)
Welcome to the club, REX. Same thing happens here. He thinks that he is always right. I asked him many times to prove his thesis, but no... he didn't... or should I say he couldn't? Come on Chronographe, try to prove ur thesis in the Ancient Macedonian language talk page.
MANOS 17:53, 30 July 2005
I thought so. Well, we can't blame him. We should blame his parents for not teaching him manners and civility. REX 17:58, 30 July 2005 (UTC)
Nope. We should blame him. If we didn't blame him, then we shouldn't put in jail the robbers and murders, but their parents. :-P MANOS 18:01, 30 July 2005
That's true too. Chronographe, now ,in public, prove to us all that what you say on Talk:Arvanites is true, prove that I am wrong. I believe that you can't, that you are nothing but a liar (what you call me falsly), making false statements even when it was obvious what was the truth. REX 18:22, 30 July 2005 (UTC)
Start with the Ancient Macedonian language talk page.

- Well, not only did it take an hour of my time, but it also took that idiot reporting me for ... vandalism (!) six times (!!!), the admins ignored my redone 3RR violation post, and some clueless newbie admin profusely and abjectly apologized to the idiot because that admin, in all his infinite wisdom, glanced at the XMK talk page and realized that the idiot was "right"!

- Please note that I never stated my support for any side of the argument or if anyone was right; I only tried to help MANOS present his thesis in a civil manner, offering my assistance because he asked for it. I am neutral in this discussion and do not wish to influence it at all. MANOS may choose to alter the article if he isn't satisfied within his time limit, but please realize that I don't endorse any action he has taken or may take.

Regarding thema Macedonia
[edit]Hi, for references you can find them plenty in H. Grégoire, "The Amorians and Macedonians" 842–1025. Note that I am not claiming that what is considered Macedonia then was radically changed – that is difficult to evaluate, rather there were two parallel meanings of the name. I think this is undisputable.
I found this Greek site for your convenience:
http://www.cc.ece.ntua.gr/~conster/English/PageData/byz_themas.htm
You may want to check any serious book dealing Byzantine Empire.
The division of Macedonia into themas Thessaloniki and Strymon are just snapshots from the 9th century. After the conquest of Samuil Empire most of the Macedonia is in thema Bulgaria. Then, during the Comnenus dynasty Macedonia is split into 13 themas: 1. Thema of Voleros 2. Thema of Zagorion 3. Thema of Veroia 4. Thema of Servia 5. Thema of Stroumnitzi 6. Thema of Malesovo and Morovisdo 7. Thema of Prilapou, Pelagonia, Molyskou and Moglenon 8. Thema of Achrida 9. Thema of Scopje 10. Thema of Prespa 11. Thema of Deavoli 12. Thema of Kastoria 13. Thema of Vardarioton
I don’t think we need to list all of the names and boundaries in the article.--Cigor 15:31, 12 September 2005 (UTC)
- That's fine, I agree that a list of all the names and boundaries is redundant, unless one would bother to expand the thema article itself. Even so, description of a myriad themata wih changing names and boundaries would be a pest to read, let alone write, unless one could upload Public Domain maps (quite a chore to locate, these ones). Since the 9th century is in the middle Byzantine period, my "snapshot" looks ok to me. Feel free to add about the post-Basil II Bulgaria thema though. With the Comneni we enter the late Byzantine era and by that time the thematic organization had become too fragmented and largely irrelevant, as armies became mercenary-based. Chronographos 15:52, 12 September 2005 (UTC)
- The point I was trying to make is that the territory of thema Macedonia is relatively stable for couple of centuries (with minor modifications), while Macedonia itself is recurrently reorganized. The reason for that IMHO is because the Empire placed Macedonia firmly under its control as late as 1018, whereas the territory of thema Macedonia is the core of the Empire almost until the very end.

KEEP AWAY FROM ME!
[edit]Chronographe, you do NOT have the right to inquire about my sex-life or my sexuality and you do NOT have the right to discuss it with me. You must be some kind of paedophile/pervert. How dare you approach me and discuss such things with me. I hear about dirty old men like you approaching teenagers on the Internet and derive pleasure out of corrupting them on the news. I know what kind of person you must be and what you probably have in mind. You keep your paedophile/perverted desires away from me or I shall report you, not only to Wikipedia administrators but also to the police so that they can add you to their lists of dangerous perverts. You hear me? You keep away from me! REX 17:44, 15 September 2005 (UTC)
- Now, now, there's no reason to panic. No one is accusing you of anything. What you do is your own business. Your name-calling is childish. If you want to talk about something, I can lend a sympathetic ear, but nothing more than that. Feel free to write me whenever there is an issue you may want discussed. Chronographos 18:19, 15 September 2005 (UTC)
Panic? Of course I panicked! A forty year-old man approached me (I am 18) on the Internet and wants to talk about my sexuality and sex-life, why wouldn't I panic? Don't you ever watch the news? Lots of unfortunate cases have started this way. I know what you lot are like! You keep away from me! I will NEVER discuss ANYTHING with ANYONE I don't know. Where is Hoxha when you need him? He knew how to deal with paedophiles. If you know what's good for you, you will never offer to discuss anything like that with anyone on the Internet! I may have overreacted, but I am warning you, don't you EVER ask me such questions. What's next? I'm supposed to meet you at Heathrow Airport to have the time of my life? Things like that HAVE happened before. Don't you dare discuss anything like that with me again or I will report you. REX 18:42, 15 September 2005 (UTC)
- Nonesense. You are imagining things. Let's hope, for your sake, that this does not hint at something repressed in your psyche. Nevertheless your nostalgia for the Hoxha regime is disgusting to say the least. BTW did you know that Enver Hoxha was a homosexual and a sadomasochist? I wonder how such a proud people as you Albanians let such a beast rule you with an iron fist for so long, and were willing to sumbit to his bestial whims without so much as a whisper of discontent. One can only guess the depth of depravity and wickedness he sank too, and how many innocent people he destroyed. I sincerely hope your family did not suffer directly during his rule. The trauma would be enormously difficult to heal. Chronographos 19:37, 15 September 2005 (UTC)
I am suspecting that maybe I overreacted, but you should know that that conversation made me feel very uneasy. I kept citing the film Alexander because I know that most Greeks are offended by what it suggests. I mean you kept ridiculing Albanians, why can't I ridicule what can be ridiculed about Greece? Then you imply that I must be repressed in some way. I think that you are joking like I was. Then you seem to want to talk about it. I try to avoid this discussion because at school I was told to avoid such discussions with strangers. You insist though on talking about it. I think why is he trying to convince me that I am subconsciously gay?. I couldn't see your face, I didn't know if you were joking or not. At that little briefing we had at school a few years ago we were told the most typical danger signs, and Chronographe my friend, I'm afraid you qualified as a potential danger. Then I start panicking. I remembered all those news stories about dangerous paedophiles on the Internet. It seems quite silly now, but it seemed quite real then. If I was coming up with silly conspiracy theories I apologise, but you should never talk to people about things like that on the Internet, the person on the other end can't see your face and know if you are joking or not. As for Hoxha, I don't know what he was or wasn't. All I know is that he was married and had children. REX 20:04, 15 September 2005 (UTC)
- Finally, some semblance of sanity. A word of advice: beware of strangers offering to buy you candy. Especially if they are "married and have children". Like Hoxha. Chronographos 20:10, 15 September 2005 (UTC)
Are you saying that you are married and have children, because if so, I shouldn't really worry that much. REX 20:16, 15 September 2005 (UTC)

Ugly Greek Sounds
[edit]Chronographe, don't you think that Greek is a very ugly sounding language? It is pronounced very heavily and I really do think that the sound of the letter gamma (Γ γ) is one of the ugliest sounds I have ever heard! REX 17:06, 22 September 2005 (UTC)

Not really; it is not that rare, you'll find it in Belorussian, Spanish, Arabic, Armenian and Dutch. Its a horrible sound, unlike the graceful zh and sh that occur in Albanian, English, French and Macedonian. REX 19:11, 22 September 2005 (UTC)

Wikipedians in Greece
[edit]Hi, I understand that you are either Greek Wikipedian or a Wikipedian living in/with an interest in Greece.
The category page Wikipedians/Greece has been replaced with Category:Wikipedians in Greece but your name still appears on the old list. You might considering moving it. You might also consider adding adding Template:Greekwiki to your user page.
A Wikipedia:Greek Wikipedians' notice board has been in existence for some time but is terribly underutilised. It would certainly benefit from your involvement.--Damac 12:11, 23 November 2005 (UTC)
