Internal Macedonian Revolutionary Organization

Hello Nicksss93. This is a controversial article. You seem to have removed the same reference to Encyclopedia Britannica three times. Do you believe that the Encyclopedia is wrong in its conclusions? Since you left no comment or edit summary, it is impossible to know your reasoning. Please join the discussion at Talk:Internal Macedonian Revolutionary Organization and explain your rationale. Thank you, EdJohnston (talk) 13:33, 8 September 2011 (UTC)

Bulgars

Please, do not change this article, if you do not have nonbiased, scientific, English language, University published, relaible sources. Wikipedia is Encyclopedia, not a forum. Thank you. Jingby (talk) 14:24, 8 September 2011 (UTC)

Bulgaria

Hello.

I have noticed your recent, persistent edits on the article. You should really consider checking the talk page more often. The article is currently undergoing a peer review for a future Featured Article status vote. Petty edit wars such as the one you are trying to cause are both unnecessary and unconstructive. - ☣Tourbillon ^A ? 16:32, 22 October 2011 (UTC)

Recent edits on the Bulgaria article...again.

Hi. I don't know if you have seen the FA nomination of the article that is currently going, but there are two things pointed out, and they both concern the images that look a bit too much like a tourist advert. You can replace the aerial view of Sofia if there is something better, but the current picture of BPS is beyond cliché. Furthermore, the Armeets Arena is horribly uncreative and unrepresentative of Bulgarian sport. I understand if it were an unique achievement of architecture, but it is very, very far from any architecture whatsoever. The Olympic squad is much better, as would be the image of Charles Champaud, the first Bulgarian Olympian (mostly because Bulgaria has had more successes in Olympic games than any other sport), so I will revert them until we have better images of sports squads or economic activity. Also, this doesn't do any good. If it were near the bottom, then maybe. But since it's on the bottom (as teritories aren't nations), it should be pointed out. - ☣Tourbillon ^A ? 17:09, 10 April 2012 (UTC)

monthly salaries in Europe

Dude, I just spent an entire evening filling this table to get a holistic view and you just deleted the whole thing! The net estimates were calculated based on the gross figures already in the list, excluding obligatory deductions (income tax, social contributions, etc.). Updated exchange rate was coming from oanda.com. I have moved the map further down because it is not ready - some countries show gross, instead of net salary. I am doing this after work and can't do everything in once. Would you please keep the information and I will be aiming to add the references later?

Also, the existing figures don't seem to be quite right. Clearly, for Spain and Italy things are not that good anymore. JackofDiamonds1 (talk) 02:20, 24 August 2012 (UTC)

If you could add another column to the table saying: "average mandatory deductions (%)", the estimate of net salary will be even more transparent. JackofDiamonds1 (talk) 02:22, 24 August 2012 (UTC)

Well, I undid your edits because there weren't any sources provided for the information that was added to the table. Estimates for net salaries from the BBC, for example, or other various websites, are not reliable, the only reliable source here are the countries' national statistical offices or some other type of a government agency which periodically publishes data about wages(like the Ministry of Labour and Social Solidarity in Portugal). About Spain and Italy - information is from their national statistical offices and thus is the most reliable one. Average mandatory deductions in most countries depend on the size of the salary so such information will be extremely hard to be found and I don't believe that it would be that useful to the table. Nicksss93 (talk) 13:36, 24 August 2012 (UTC)

Hey, well we could calculate the average mandatory deductions for the average salary, right? The net estimates were derived using the gross figures which are already in the table (coming from official statistics). That's why I put the word "estimate". I think that it's better to have the estimates than nothing, it gives the overall idea. JackofDiamonds1 (talk) 00:23, 25 August 2012 (UTC)

Technically, yes. However, it will be extremely hard to find such data for every country in the table cause different taxes and contributions vary a lot in different states. Nicksss93 (talk) 10:12, 25 August 2012 (UTC)

It's not that hard. There are so called "net salary calculators" where you are inputting the gross salary and get the net salary after all deductions. I did those calculations for certain countries in the list. If such a calculator was unavailable, I just deducted the income tax for the average salary from the gross salary. We can emphasise the fact that the figures are estimates and explain the methodology in the article. JackofDiamonds1 (talk) 14:09, 25 August 2012 (UTC)

The salary calculators mostly are reliable enough and are already used for the calculation of at least half of the net wages in the table. However, when there isn't such a calculator or it just can't be found, it is almost impossible to determine the net wage from the gross one. It's not only the income tax which should be taken into consideration when calculating the net salary - there are tens of taxes and contributions which vary greatly for every state. Nicksss93 (talk) 16:14, 26 August 2012 (UTC)

I agree but I believe that it's better to have an estimate rather than not having anything. JackofDiamonds1 (talk) 16:23, 26 August 2012 (UTC)

Well, the gross wage already gives that bare notion about the size of the net wage, in my opinion. Nicksss93 (talk) 09:59, 27 August 2012 (UTC)

Yes and no, in Scandinavian countries the mandatory deductions can be over 50%, whereas in Russia and Kazakhstan only around 10-15%. JackofDiamonds1 (talk) 01:09, 29 August 2012 (UTC)

List of countries in Europe by monthly average wage

Hi there, based on this diff, it seems you might not be aware of WP:NCMAC. If you could have a read and familiarize yourself with policy for naming that country, that'd be great. Thanks! Dolescum (talk) 06:22, 11 February 2013 (UTC)

Macedonian help needed

Hello Nicksss93, I'm contacting you because we need some Macedonian translators to help with the deployment of the new VisualEditor on mk.wikipedia. There are help pages, user guides, and description pages that need translating, as well as the interface itself. The translating work is going on over on MediaWiki: Translation Central. I also need help with a personal message for the Macedonian Wikipedians. If you are able to help in any way, either reply here, or head over to TranslationCentral. Thanks for your time, PEarley (WMF) (talk) 18:11, 13 August 2013 (UTC)

Proposed deletion of Ivo Ivanov (businessman)

The article Ivo Ivanov (businessman) has been proposed for deletion because of the following concern:

A businessman who owns a waste company. Hardly notable, even if the source mentions him: 'Such sources must be reliable, and independent of the subject. A single independent source is almost never sufficient for demonstrating the notability of an organization.' Generally fails WP:ANYBIO.

While all constructive contributions to Wikipedia are appreciated, content or articles may be deleted for any of several reasons.

You may prevent the proposed deletion by removing the {{proposed deletion/dated}} notice, but please explain why in your edit summary or on the article's talk page.

Please consider improving the article to address the issues raised. Removing {{proposed deletion/dated}} will stop the proposed deletion process, but other deletion processes exist. In particular, the speedy deletion process can result in deletion without discussion, and articles for deletion allows discussion to reach consensus for deletion. _Fortuna ^{Imperatrix Mundi} 20:13, 18 March 2016 (UTC)

Proposed deletion of Dimitar Borisov

The article Dimitar Borisov has been proposed for deletion because it appears to have no references. Under Wikipedia policy, this biography of a living person will be deleted unless it has at least one reference to a reliable source that directly supports material in the article.

If you created the article, please don't be offended. Instead, consider improving the article. For help on inserting references, see Referencing for beginners, or ask at the help desk. Once you have provided at least one reliable source, you may remove the {{prod blp}} tag. Please do not remove the tag unless the article is sourced. If you cannot provide such a source within seven days, the article may be deleted, but you can request that it be undeleted when you are ready to add one. Liz ^{Read!
