The Reply
Well, Máipw is really the only form of the word though basically it is dually Gaelicised and Brythonicised form of Mapu which is basically the Mapuche word for country. The history deviated around when the Bar Kokhba revolt death toll was even more destructive in this alternate history and the repurcussions harsher resulting in the destruction of Rabbinical Judaism with Jerusalem becoming a primarily Christian city and Islam not coming into existence with Christianity and Zoroastrianism being the predominant religions in the Middle East and history deviates from this timeline more from there. For now I will keep the title of the alternate history the same until I think of a better name if I do.

Hi i have been on this wiki before, but am returning after a long hiatus. Last time I created lots of bad and ASB timelines but now I have more experience and hope to create better timelines.

PDS_logo
The PDS image is from the de.wikipedia.org page Partei des Demokratischen Sozialismus, which can be found here -. It can also be found here -

The original file name is PDS-Logo.svg. When uploading the original svg file, the message "The XML in the uploaded file could not be parsed." appears.

The Wikimedia Commons page lists a 500px png file of the image. I tried to upload this image, which can be found with this url - I received an upload warning saying "The filename begins with 500px-. It seems to be an image of reduced size (thumbnail). If you have this image in full resolution upload this one, otherwise change the filename please." Consequently, I removed the "500px-" from the file name.

The file name PDS-Logo.png had already been deleted with the deletion log description of "Misloaded File [Wikimedia Version Available]" So I again attempted to upload the original svg file, but the message "The XML in the uploaded file could not be parsed." still appeared. If you could clarify what this means, it would be greatly appreciated. It is preventing me from uploading the original wikimedia file without using one of the png files offered.

For this reason, I decided to once again upload the available png version of this file, which can still be found with this url -

Since the file was once again deleted with the message "Misloaded File [Wikimedia Version Available]", I decided to sift for answers in other articles. I took a look at this page, which also features a logo from a left-wing political party in Germany - Die Linke (A Reich Disunited). From the history log, it says that you uploaded the file Die Linke logo.svg, replacing File:Die Linke logo.png. If you would be able to upload PDS-Logo.svg or PDS Logo.svg in the same fashion on my behalf, without the "The XML in the uploaded file could not be parsed." message appearing for you, that would also be greatly appreciated.

Lastly, you added the article Party of German Socialism (Die Mauer Steht) to the category Political party articles using deprecated parameters – the category page appears to have been deleted March 23, 2017 by Imperium Guy. Since new articles are still being added to the category, would it be helpful if I recreated the category page?

EoGuy
Nuke, I am writing you to talk about the block of EoGuy, whom you blocked for abusing multiple accounts. First of all, I'm not convinced EoGuy=EoGuy99. All we have is the word of the EoGuy99 account, which could just be someone trying to frame EoGuy. Second of all, I think Eo forgot his password or got locked out of his original account, and then switched over to his backup account, EoGuy99. Many people have backup accounts. The EoGuy account stopped editing on November 1, and a few days later the EoGuy99 account became active. This is not sockpuppet or abusing multiple accounts and therefore is not worthy of a block. Finally, I would like to point out that merely possessing two accounts is not a crime, the problem is "abusing" multiple accounts, operating both accounts at the same time for nefarious or otherwise illicit purposes. This is not the case here, as EoGuy appears to be continuing his old work on a new account (not simultaneous, not abuse). As such I have unblocked EoGuy. I hope you understand my reasoning.

Scrawland Scribblescratch 05:32, January 7, 2018 (UTC)

As far as I know, we do not ban simply for having more than one account. Many years ago, I informed LG that I had a backup account and he didn't do anything about it.

The XML in the uploaded file could not be parsed
This is the error message that appears when I attempt to upload .svg files. Could you please let me know how to address this problem, without having other people upload the files I would like to upload?

Nate just uploaded it for me - a blank map of the US with territories. But again, I'd rather not have to rely on others to upload these files. AltHistoryVibes (talk) 00:48, January 9, 2018 (UTC)


 * I'll use the blank map as an example. Following your instructions on duplication, I made sure that the file name "Blank USA, w territories.svg" or "Blank USA,_w_territories.svg" didn't exist already on the wiki.


 * I'm on a macbook pro, using Firefox. I right-click and go to "save image as". It offers to save it as "Blank_USA,_w_territories.svg.png" so I delete the .png and save it as "Blank_USA,_w_territories.svg"


 * When I go to upload it on the wiki, though, I'm unable to upload it. That's when the error message "The XML in the uploaded file could not be parsed" appears. To the best ofmy knowledge, I haven't had this problem before.

Permission and Idea for Russian America
Hello NuclearVacuum,

I am here to request permission to expand and create an Australia article and backstory for the Australian Nation and the Continent as a Whole. My idea would be to have an Aboriginal Nation on the Australian continent, and maybe even an independent Tasmania (tasmania is very different from Australia, and I believe they have their own distinct Tribe, commonly called Tasmanians, oh and not to mention the OTL Tasmanian independence movements. The history would be added in the article, but the basic jist would be that the British were unable to fully colonize/control the Australian continent and aborigines peoples, with many tribes banding together to form their own nation/nations, being tired of the way they were being treated by the British, and not to mention being used as a place to send criminals. So yeah, that's basically all I wanted to talk about, I hope to hear your response!

~Signed The History Nerd

You bring up a very good point, why would the presence of Russia in North America effect Australia? Well, one thing is for sure, the aborigines of Australia hated the British settling their lands, and basically ignoring their territory. Many wars were fought in Australia against the aborigine people, and as I've read your timeline, and have seen that Russian-Native relations were realivly passive, and the Russians were very tolerant of the Natives in Alaska. Now I understand that this doesn't mean that Russia would start opposing European Expansion into Native territory, but it could be possible Russia could try to use the aborigine people in Australia as a counter to the British presence already well established in North America. Russian support for an aborigine rebellion or a massive war against a massive aborigine tribe isn't too far fetched, especially since they supported the Mexicans in their fight for independence. Russia could see great benefit from having a friendly aborigine Nation state, as it could be used to present Russia to the native populations of their colonies, and to other peoples struggling against Russia's rivals that are colonizing them with little representation, that Russia is a liberator of people. Though I won't just talk about Russia appearing as a liberator of natives without mentioning the downs of this, as this could also be terrible to Russia's image to other European Empires (and later on, Asian empires, such as Japan), as seeing Russia supporting native uprisings in Australia could bring a sense of a threat, especially the United States, as they obtained most of their territory by forcing native Americans off their territory, along with massacring their people. Russia would very much be seen as a threat to European empires and their colonies, and its very possible war might break out, which would lead to an interesting scenario. Sorry if this got a little out of hand or if I got side tracked, but this is my basic explanation how an independent aborigine state, and possibly a Tasmanian state could work out, possibly by Russian intervention, and how it would effect Russia's image globally. This also could have major changes to the Cold War, as the aborigine state would sort of be a "Neo-Colony" of sorts at this time (if you know anything about The history of Cuba and how the US treated Cuba, you will understand what this means for the aborigine state), and could become a socialistic or at least a Soviet sympathetic nation in terms of foreign policy, which could lead toward a very different situation on Australia, and for the western bloc. Anyway, this is my basic reasoning, I hope it's a reasonable one. ~ The History Nerd

I see, well I agree to your proposal, and agree to your final decision and reasoning. I came across the exact point that with Russia and the US moving in on the Americas, and Britain losing its grasp, its more likely for Australia to stay realitivly the same. My idea for an aboriginal state still could actually work though, just later on in the timeline. There is actually a modern day attempt at creating an aboriginal state: [Murrawarri Republic] is a micronation which was formed by a band of Aboriginals who actually want independence, but haven't done anything so far, which is one of the reasons the Australian government is keeping a close eye on them and hasn't acted yet. This happened in 2013, but can happen sooner if a larger group of Aboriginals protested, but again, i digress, your idea seems more plausible. ~The History Nerd

ArmsSpaghetti (talk) 17:04, January 12, 2018 (UTC)

Dear NuclearVacuum,

I have also come up with a suggestion, what if the Russian empire supported the confederate states? I mean, the Russian empire itself still had surfdom during the time of the American Civil War, and it's not too hard to imagine them supporting the confederate cause, especially if it meant access to the cotton trade, since this was a important resource to have at the time. I understand that it would be difficult to actually send troops or supplies, especially since there wasn't a Panama Canal at the time, so it might just be limited to political support rather then physical support, maybe just a formal recognition? It's up to you, but I do find plausible that since Russia has a more colonial presence in North America, and being more powerful, that it would have some opinion on the American civil war, I mean, they do share a border in this timeline. I'm not saying the confederacy would win because Russia is cool with them, I'm just saying, it would be interesting to see what a stronger Russian colonial empire would do in the American Civil War. ~The History Nerd

Alright, you clearly no more about Russian history then me.

Nah it's alright, anyway, so what about the Australia thing?

Alright, I'll contribute to the research as well, I'll report anything I find that could have any major effects to the Australian continent being divided.

Country data
Hey I'm a little confused about Country data. From what I understand, specific country data pages are generated from country showdata which is a template you use in order to make the page. Is it allowed to create these pages for countries (that may or may not existed) specifically for your timeline? i.e. Russia (Mannerheim's Finland) or something simliar so I'd end up having a Template:Country_data_Russia_(Mannerheim's Finland)?

Thanks,

Russian America Question: Why Such a Different Canada?
Hi NV!

I have a question about Canada, specificly, why it's so different? I understand that the POD is around the Upper and Lower Canada rebellions, but how are they different from our timeline? I don't see a Russian America owning more territory and being more stable and populated to cause Canada to be so different (yet, as I say this, I'm trying to divide Australia up, so I guess I can't say much), so could you please explain what was the POD in those Upper &a Lower Canadian Rebellions?

Though I do like the change in Canada. - The History Nerd

Hawaii in Russian America
Hello Nuclear Vacuum,

I am here to ask you if I could edit and work on the Hawaii page. I see that since the US doesn't have access or is trying to expand its influence in the pacific due to it not owning the west coast, Hawaii is independent, and I do know a lot about Hawaiian history and how it fell from a kingdom to a US state. I hope to gain your permission to create a detailed page on Hawaii.

May I please help work on it? I'll follow the already created timeline of Hawaii, and maybe, if I get approval, add my own twist to their modern situation, but that is only if you accept my proposal to do so. I hope to hear your response! -The History Nerd

Alright, understable. Are there any more pages that aren't off limits that I could help expand?

Athabasca Assiniboia oil Pipeline 1983 Doomsday
The Athabasca page says that they plan on building a pipeline ti Assiniboia. The earliest date that consturiton can start was 2015. It is way past 2015. I think it would be idea to add a WCRB NewHour Headline saying that ground has broke on the pipeline this year or maybe last. Do you agree with me. If the anwser is yes then we should ask Yankovic270 what he thinks. However he been gone for over a year so i doubt he will respond. Perhaps you and me so adopt some his pages.

Athabasca and Assiniboia were doomsday survivor states based in Maniatobia and northern Albertla. They were both made by Yankovic270. Both mention that the two states were negotiating to build an oil pipeline and they that 2015 was the earliest that consturiton could have begun. I feel that it would be a good idea to WCRB NewHour Headline saying that ground has broke on the oil pipeline this year or maybe last.

The reson I brought the Athabasca Assiniboia oil Pipeline to your attention was because you baned the last person who updated the CRB NewHour Headlines. I figured he must been baned because he didn't consult with who ever his monitoring the timeline in Lordgannon's abebsce. Since you banded the guy who updated the headlines I thought you the one ask. Do you know any active moderator who is still interested in doomsdays before i make my plans to request adoption of Athabasca Assiniboia and then update the headlines.

As you may had noticed I am still working on the Chinese Empire Article and I have started a stub about espinoge a little while ago. I have the impression that at some point a WWII article by itself will be best. As with the Chinese Empire article I think will focus more on the homefront/society than the war-details alone.

I have noticed I really like many articles about sub-cultures and minorties. Personally I think we should put all the ethnic pages such as (Ukranian, English Alaskans as well as Cossacks, Buddhists and Natives under an Alaskan Culture Category.

I look forward to seeing an Alaskan Culture article from you, as I contiune to stalk your sandbox.

Stepintime (talk) 21:04, January 25, 2018 (UTC)

I am sorry about that, it was just an organzation move that made sense to me. I didn't think of it as claiming owernship but I see how that is a problem. It won't happen again.

Thank you for your permission to add more to these ethnic articles, I admit that is something I have wanted to do for some time. Dacha Disscusion is always welcome :)

Bringing up those people is pretty cool, ethier by incooperating them to the article's text or by having a people's list there.

One thing I think about is developing the web of Alaskan Society between all these different groups. I have concluded for example that Enivormentalism at some point in the late 1900's would explode from the liberal cities of Alaska. Remember that Alaska is built on raw materials and the fur-trade (at least in its early history). Now lets think about Buddhism- traditonally very enviromentalistic (but does adjust for certain countries, think modern China for example). But New World Buddhists are likely to be very forward with their causes. Native Alaskans who otherwise might be more left leaning may be dissauded by angry activists chasitizing them for hunting practices or working in Oil drillling plants. However some of these native Alaskans will also be unhappy to see their old tribal lands put to industrial use regardless of whether some of their kin are employed or not and would still face tensions from Conservative groups like Dougs, Cossacks and ordinary Scandanavian protestants.

Meanwhile middle-way voters (such as Ukranians, Russians (and possibly Cossacks) may feel threatened by the changes of the 21st century. However ethnic groups are also very divided based on geographical lines. Imagine the feelings and life of an upper class Ukranian in Validkaday as opposed to the Russian logger of Idaho.

The best way to organize all of this seemingly disorganized jarble coming out of my head is that Alaska's society would be one of the most socially complex first-world countries. Alaska has a European origin in North America- but also comes from a unique Slavic Origin which was more conservative than say the English or even the Spanish and by itself gives a more asiatic tint (because Russia does have its own Asian background)

Alaska was built on raw materials but now-a-days would be a financhial and tech capital of the world.

Couple this with many recent immigrants from the traditional East-Asia (as oopposed to Russian-Central Asia and Manhcuria) that would become their own upper class.

Also couple this with Alaska being the real capital of the Orthdox Church after the Soviet Union's attacks on Russia's historic religions.

Alaska in some ways would resemble the U.S, Canada and Austrlaia but its society despite apparant North American and English influence would still have its own qualities- perhaps unusual for a typical developed European-based country.

Hey Nuke, I'm wondering how I can create a 'Sandbox' for my alternate history scenarios, you know, so I can put any ideas down and copy off of them later. The History Nerd

Help
I would like for you to use the moderator roll back-edit ability. In editing the template for the Mongol Invasion of Europe article I somehow deleted all of the content of the page. Undoing the edits did not help, and being that the article is massive I think rolling back edits is the best way to restore the article. Please roll back to the: Revision as of 20:15, February 5, 2018 version.

I am sorry for the error and the inconveince.

Stepintime (talk) 20:57, February 5, 2018 (UTC)

EDIT:

I was able to resolve the issue of clearing out the page.

But the problem began when the template started spewing weird code on the page, when I tried to tinker around with the  template's source code to  I unkowingly deleted most of the page.

Then after asking for help I realized I could solve the problem with the source editor.

The whole right title thing makes sense but each time I intend to upload a image into the infobox it makes a whole new image page and when I look back at the page that I intended the image to go to its not their and the same red writing on the NationBox saying Location of Russia.

You may not need to change it but if so then do

Photo Problem
Hey Nuke,

Recently I’ve been having some problems with adding photos to certain pages. I’ve looked at other’s President/war/whatever pages to see what they did and it looks like they do the exact same thing I did! It seems to only be happening with non-svg photos, and infoboxes that aren’t Nation Boxes. To be honest, it’s pretty annoying. If you need to see the pages that have this pages, then Here they are:

President of China (A Free China

Chinese Civil War (A Free China)

President of New Orange (The British Ain’t Coming)

For the New Orange Page, it’s the Portrait that won’t show up. I don’t know why it won’t work for me, though I will say that I do most of this on my phone, so incase you can’t figure it out, that could be the issue. Anyway, I hope you can solve this! The History Nerd

Well what do I do when they aren’t uploaded here? Cause I’ve tried many different things to try and make these dang files show up.

Okay then, can you tell me/link me to where I can upload my files? The History Nerd

Thanks, but This just tells me how to avoid duplications, which I don’t need at the moment. Sorry if this is getting irritating, but I need to know how to upload a file to this wiki, like the link you sent me suggests.

Alright thanks The History Nerd

I though by that you meant the file I was uploading had the same name, not the name of it when you upload it. Do I have to change it now? The History Nerd

Wow, okay....

Alright, thanks The History Nerd

Athabasca Assiniboia oil Pipeline 1983 Doomsday
I remamber that when i told you about my plans to make a 1983 doomsday WCBR News Hour headline about ground breaking on the Athabasca to Assinboia pipeline, that feelt is probbly all right but you wern't an expert on doomsday lore and that I may be risking some delteing it if they felt it went against cannon. I don't think my post violated cannon because the Athabasca and Assinbodia page said that there were plans for an oilpipeline and that construction could start no sooner then 2015. Did you deleted my post because of a formatting error. I thought that i was following the I WCBR News Hour headline formatting guideline that were posted on the WCBR News Hour talk page but i guess i could have misinterpreted them. It it wasn't a formating error did you delte my headline because it mentioned provincial canada and didn't and didn't consult with mitro.

Chinese Election Map request
Hey Nuke,

So I heard that you are a map maker and you can make maps for people if they asked, so I wanted to try this out. Do you think you could make an Election map for the 2017 Chinese General Elections in my timeline: A Free China? Keep in mind that Tibet and Xinjiang (known as East Turkestan in this timeline) are independent nations, so please remember that if you do make the map for me (also include Taiwan as one whole province). All provinces of modern day China excluding Tibet and Xinjiang will be the same in this ineline, so its mostly the same. When you’re making the election map, the election system with the provinces will resemble the US way, so the provinces will have colors (Blue and Green) that represent which party is currently holding it. You can make any province a certain color, but just remember to have the Democratic Progressive party (the green on the election map) have the majority of provinces. I hope you accept my request, and if you can’t do it, then it’s fine. Colgan dog (talk) 02:17, February 18, 2018 (UTC)User:Colgan dog

Christian VIII of Denmark/Christian Frederick, King of Denmark (The Danish North Sea)
Hi, since I am unable to change the name of Christian VIII of Denmark (The Danish North Sea) back its original name (I don't seem to have the option) and I have nominated Christian VIII of Denmark (The Danish North Sea) for deletion. As I have stated before, Christian VIII of Denmark (The Danish North Sea) is meant to be named Christian Frederick. Christian Frederick is based off of the real King Christian VIII, but this Christian Frederick is still a fictional character. His ancestry for example is different than the real Christian VIII and so is his biography. I used the portrait of the real Christian Frederick to represent this fictional monarch. I basically used portraits of real life royals to represent my list of Kings. Yan Hoek has done this for his list of monarchs in his timeline The Kalmar Union (for example, King Frederick II of Wessex-Normandy is represented by a photograph of the real life OTL Prince Albert Victor, Duke of Clarence and Avondale). A similar thing was done for the timeline Jacobite Glory, were the fictional monarchs of Scotland are represented by portraits of real life British royals. There are many other examples. Please note that I am not angry in anyway shape or form, but I just want to know as to why the name was changed. I hope that this doesn't leave me on the wrong foot.DasBull$ (talk) 00:50, February 24, 2018 (UTC)

I need my message to be seen and understood, i just don't understand.
Hello

I'm really confused, why was my PROPOSAL for a flag deleted before the main writers approved it or not ? I was using it finely, not puting it on the canon page like a selfish person (i mean in a alternative history scenario made by a community, the community should approve changes and not a single person) and ready for a verdict after a wide discussion with a community wich, from the outside, look lovely to be part of. But if it's deleted for "housekeeping" without anyone in charge of the Lawrence Raiders seeing it, i mean it's worthless to just participate (and if i made a mistake on that my bad i did not know). The scenario is on a certain stalemate without a real conclusion and many parts parts needing to be expanded. Could we have a positive constructive way of continuing it?

With my best regards

I pretty much agreed with what you had to say(you do just your job after all) but there's just one little detail that bugged me

[//althistory.wikia.com/wiki/Talk:Lawrence_Raiders_(1983:_Doomsday) http://althistory.wikia.com/wiki/Talk:Lawrence_Raiders_(1983:_Doomsday)], waiting for approval of people that sadly aren't aware but hey i've gotta stick to the protocol (and why i uploaded it in the first place, not for vandalism or self autocratic rule like accidently in January). It was that thing that bugged me the most in the first place and why i talked with you : I didn't understood why( for a picture that really wasn't used in anything i would have understood but i used it)it was deleted even if i used it like the system wants it to (or are you saying this isn't a talk page despite the big "talk"?

Commonwealth of England...
thanks for spotting this thing. Saw the convention and its recommendation for shorter names. No problem if and when necessary for its name change. Thus Commonwealth of England, Scotland and Ireland (Cromwell the Great) can be changed to Commonwealth (Cromwell the Great). Colloquially it's the most used form (will add a few lines later explaining this point). Liked your cue on the name. Britannia, Britain or British Commonwealth are shorter forms and are not suggested nor should be used as colloquial.

On the same topic and checking other country names in CtG I spotted a few other issues (any suggestions?): Regards, --JorgeGG (talk) 13:52, February 27, 2018 (UTC)

I was blocked for a couple hours
Hello nuclear Vacuum,

So today I discovered some issues when I attempted to edit some map game pages, or edit my own timeline.... it said I was IP blocked! Now I don’t know why I would be blocked, but the reason for it was apparently for Vandalism. Now I know you and me both know I have done no such act on my days on this wiki, and don’t know why I wasn’t messaged about any unneeded edits. Now I was out an about, so it really didn’t interfere with me as I was busy throughout the day, but when I got back on, I looked into it more. Now funny thing is, when I sent a message to FANDOM I could suddenly edit pages and send messages again! XD

Anyways, I just wanted to ask you and see if you ever authorized or know of any such blocks, but it’s most likely the wrong IP was blocked. Anyway, I hope to hear back from you, goodbye!

Afghanistan in Russian America
Hi Nuke,

So I am very familiar with Afghanistan history, now I wouldn’t say I am an expert, but I do know quite a bit, and so as a chance to actually contribute something to this timeline, rather then making a page for a nation that has no relivence or change in this timeline at all, I have come to ask what is Afghanistan like in this timeline? I imagine that with America not having a coast, it doesn’t have a huge launching point in the pacific, nor did they get to install pro-American capitalist governments in Asia, since they don’t own Hawaii or the west coast in this timeline, but I imagine they still have a great deal of influence. Now, my discovery of the Democratic Republic of Afghanistan, and to see Afghanistan be a releativly propertious, equal, and somewhat stable state (there was still a lot distaste for the secular, but not quite atheist stance of the Communist government, and this did eventually lead to all out conflict, so not completely stable), which inspired me to search more into afghan history, which is quite fascinating. So, I am here to ask what Afghanistan is like in this timeline, is it still Communist? If so, is it relatively stable and united? Or is it basically the replacement for the northern alliance in Afghanistan in our timeline, and the Taliban is still fighting the government and international coalition? Is it basically the same? Is it no longer communist, but still a stable, somewhat democratic Islamic Republic? I am interested and eager to hear your ideas and theories!

About the picture deletion
Greetings. I've noticed that you have deleted the File:Location of Vietnam AVEON.png. However, I must inform you that the file was not misloaded. As you can see, in my alternate timeline, Laos and Cambodia had united and I erased the border in the picture. Bhutan and Nepal has also united with India, and I also erased the border. I believe that was just a misunderstanding, and I want to clear that. I would be pleased if you revert the image or tell me how can I fix that image so it sn't marked as "misloaded". Thank you.

Re:Map Naming
Is there wiki policy stating this? I can't find one. Is this just you imposing an arbitrary preference? If so, please stop deleting it. Krasnoyarsk2 (talk) 22:25, March 5, 2018 (UTC)

Really? I read Alternative History:Rules and there's no mention of it. I saw it in Alternative History:Conventions in use in this wiki, but a convention certainly isn't a rule, which brings us back to arbitrary preference. Incidentally, before rushing to delete things, it might be worth considering that you should mention it to the people who uploaded them, particularly if you're doing it based on a convention rather than a site rule. Krasnoyarsk2 (talk) 02:00, March 6, 2018 (UTC) Definitionally, a convention [] is not a rule. Furthermore, these conventions have not been applied with any degree of consistency as recently as the last Principia Moderni game, as a cursory glance at a few of the many articles associated with it demonstrates. This, again, leads me to believe that you're just enforcing your own preference arbitrarily, and without any explanation to the users involved.

If you want to ban me for complaining, do so, but be assured that I'll bring up the fact that you, a wiki admin, seem to respond to any questions by new users about you indiscriminately deleting their material without explanation with hostility, and by immediately leaping to threats of bans, to the community at large. Call me naïve, but that doesn't seem like the way admins ought to behave. Krasnoyarsk2 (talk) 04:52, March 6, 2018 (UTC)

Tannu Tuva in Russian America and A Free China
Hey Nuke!

So I was just searching up stuff, when I remembered about this federal subject of Russia called the “Tuva Republic”. What’s so fascinating about it is that it used to be its own independent communist state before the they agreed to peaceful annexation into the Soviet Union. So I was wondering if Tannu Tuva could possibly regain its independence after the fall of the Soviet Union, since it staying independent throughout the Cold War seems really implausible.

So I was also thinking if I should include Tannu Tuva as an independent state in my own timeline “A Free China”, as apart of one of those many butterfly affects of China being a democracy.

I hope to hear your thoughts and response! Colgan dog (talk) 22:40, March 8, 2018 (UTC)

Hi Nuke,

I am here to bring up an idea for an interesting topic in Russian America, especially for Alaska: Naming Laws. Now in the US, as you might already know, each state makes their own naming laws, and in Alaska, you can name your child anything you want. But now since Alaska is very Russian, and an independent country, do you have any ideas for their possible naming laws?

Hello, I noticed that you are trying to delete my wiki page on Jesse Ventura Presidency. What can I do so this doesn't happen. I am doing this for a school project and I want to make sure it doesn't get deleted. Thank you!

Thank you sir! I have renamed it The Body President. I like that a lot better too! Hopefully it is all up to code now. How does it look?

Thank you sir and no problem. I'm glad you let me know that there was already an althist on Jesse Ventura being president so now the two are distinguished. Have a good day!

Slavs
Thanks for the heads up, I was referring to the pie chart. It made sense to me that the government might count Slavs that originated from the Russian Empire as one group, sense they would have far more in common than all of the other groups.

I am going to be talking about the rise and decline of ethnic Russian society in Alaska. Russians holding most authority until the 1917 Revolution, than the on suing chaos allows the large and discriminated Ukrainians to realign society to their interests. I imagine the Cold War would be a critical turning point with the government in some ways emphasizing the Ukranian parts of culture to separate themselves from the Russian Soviet Union. I could even see a movement to create Ukrainian as an official language in the late 50s before the Alaskan Missle Crisis and its aftermath causes the country to become non aligned.

Russians are kninda in a weird place in this Alaska, often middle income and better off than many others but not holding many positions of high power as the Ukranians do. However modern social interaction and intermarriage would still make the two indistinguishable to outsiders in the 2010s --Stepintime (talk) 04:55, March 14, 2018 (UTC)

Could this guy, be a Ukrainian Alaskan https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Nestor_Makhno --Stepintime (talk) 23:41, March 16, 2018 (UTC)

Thanks for your explanation, makes sense

I do see still some Ukranian-Russian tensiosn taking place in colonial days being that Ukranians felt subujgated at home. But living in the New World could definently reduce those tensions.

By the time independence comes around your model of natives v,s new comes would be likely. Definelty the immigrants would have vidsions of empire while the natives would really just want a happier indepndent life perhaps asking  "why can't we be like the United States?".

I guess you envision Ukranians and Russians both seeing each other as Aaskans after independence but I still think about economic differences. I cant ignore the fact that almost every Alsakan President is Ukranian and none are Russian- this says something about the two groups and the choices they make. Ukranians seem to come out on top as the most Alaskan of all Alaskans (as they are Ukranaians speaking Alaskan Russian espically)

. I get the feeling that ethnicities even if they didnt know it would have some statistical differences in gdp per capita and would be more likely to have different jobs. Judging from other parts of Russian Ameirca it looks like Ukranians would be overall be more skilled and creative (though some Russians would be to- think about Sergi Brin). Perhaps Russians would then have middle class occupations like teachers or accountants.

I do imagine Russians also being more conservative overall in all governates (though where lthey live would also make a difference. Southern and Shielklov Russians would be liberal and leftist respectively.

Independence looks like it helps Ukranians a great deal, though ethnic Russians who had been there for two generations or more will also be happy.

Most importantly is that post independence is that we would see heavy Russian Ukranian intermarriage which would solidfy a unique Alaskan Identity.

I guess the Celts are a good analogy, because in American Irish had impacts to varying degrees. In the South many claim Irish ancestory but they are too omany 'Irish Neigbrohoods' but in the Northeast America Irisih enclaves still exist.

Wikimedia files
Hi, I'm obviously being an idiot... you're deleting my uploads saying there's a Wikimedia file available... so how do I actually use that Wikimedia file if it's not on our Wikia yet? Is there a magic coding out there?

i.e. 'Ermesinda.jpg' or 'Kiejstut seal 1379.png' which I thought were faithful takings from Wikipedia and not renamed (which I know I've been extremely guilty of in the past, hence my recent tidying spree).

Thanks! Yan Hoek (talk) 20:52, March 21, 2018 (UTC)

Protecting Articles
A couple of my articles were edited by someone else in a way that conflicted with the storyline I have set up, and I saw that you corrected it - I just wanted to say thanks!

Deletion
Hello Nuke,

I saw you deleted Communist-Controlled Ameirca

I relaized the author had requested deletion but I then asked him for adoption and he gave me his consent. I then worked on cleaning up the articles months ago. (They certainly did need to be cleaned).

I suppose its fine, what's done is done. I had planned to flesh out the concept.

But I suppose all things are temporary, I could always make my own timeline with a simliar premise at a later date.

This is certainly not accuastory, there is so much work you do here  but I thought I should let you know about the situation. I have too much to do in life then to play with yet ANOTHER timeline.

In the meantime I want to finish the proposal for Zheng China, as well as get around to the espinoge article. Ethnic groups will be coming around too :).

Stepintime (talk) 23:05, March 25, 2018 (UTC)

Image deletion
I've noticed that a lot of my images are being constantly deleted as soon as I upload them by yourself; I'm not entirely sure why, so I'd like to ask if there's something I'm doing wrong - images will play an integral part to setting the scene of the timeline and I am going to be using some furhter down the line. Please do let me know why they've been deleted and what I need to do to prevent any more deletions of imagery. ScienceGuy44 (talk) 11:44, March 26, 2018 (UTC)

I quite appreciate you getting back to me. Wasn't sure what I'd done incorrectly, so it's good to be informed. So, if I were to get a picture from google of, say, US soldiers in Korea, would it be best to leave it as the file's original name or to rename and edit it? ScienceGuy44 (talk) 17:35, March 26, 2018 (UTC)

Righto; most everything I've re-uploaded following our chat is heavily edited by myself, but now includes the name of the article with them and thus, I hope, no longer violates the naming rules. Thanks for the clarifications. ScienceGuy44 (talk) 17:54, March 26, 2018 (UTC)

Freezer Generator (talk) 00:49, March 27, 2018 (UTC)

oh wait. nvm. did you delete them because i spelled region wrong? ill fix it now but thats no reason to delete an image in my opinion Freezer Generator (talk) 00:50, March 27, 2018 (UTC)

dont delete my images which have fine names that are easy to remember! their not inappropriate their not misleading and their not capitatlized (but hows that a problem) so they should not be deleted. please give me the images back and not be cruel to me. Freezer Generator (talk) 00:54, March 27, 2018 (UTC)

File deletion
Greetings, NuclearVacuum,

I have noticed you are continuously deleting my image files. As a reason, you give that the images are "unacceptable" .May I know what you presume to say with "unacceptable"? I would also like to ask you to stop deleting my image files, this to give me the opportunity to continue contributing to this wiki.

Regards, FoxMaps (talk) 07:25, March 28, 2018 (UTC)

Greetings NuclearVaccum

I see you nominated my scenario for deletion. I see why you did so and I changed the name of the scenario to something more appropriate. If that doesn't get you to reconsider, I'll re-write it in third person view. When I wrote the article, I was impatient, and now I see the error of my ways and made the necessary changes. I hope it gets you to reconsider. If it doesn't, I understand. If it does, thank you for your open-mindedness.

i made a bad flag picture of aaktuin and deleted it after posting it here and it follows the correct naming sustem and then i made a beter picture and out it here but it has defalt "-0" at the end. is this allowed? if not i cant do anything about it

can we improve this wiki anymore? i hadnt done an overload and wasnt even in source editor the only source-y thing i used was infobox (NationInfo) and an image (File:Seal of Aaktuin (The 1456 Incident).png). then i tried to add a heading and it glitched out. it stopped typing and i wondered what was up so i checked in source mode. i thought id fixed it but then the options at the top disappeared. i couldnt click cancel save new heading or anything. so i deleted the tab to try again. have you ever come across this problem? do you know how to solve it? tell me on my talk page Freezer Generator (talk)

Template:NationInfo cannot let lang_official and language be different. unless theres a thing where you can do it (almist like a hack) you are an active lieutennant and if there is one id think youd knowed it. ASAP

a very unneeded question from ansa: how do you do the avatar thing? i try to upload (the seal of aaktuin) and either two things happen: 1. nothing: it justs goes on like i never changed it or 2. it says sorry we had trouble processing this request please try again later. i need help.

Is there something wrong with Category:Icelandic Overseas Territories? If so, please tell me. :D

Wikimedia file uploads
Hey Nuke,

I went ahead and fixed the files that I created myself, adding the timeline name.

As for the wikimedia files, I do not know what I am supposed to do. I did not change any of their names or file extensions when I uploaded them to the wiki, nor were those files already on the wiki. I know I didn't specifically select the Wikimedia license, but that is because I was uploading them using visual editor and not Special:Upload. Of course, I intended to go back later and give them wikimedia liceneses. Now, if that was the only issue, I would expect you would just add a Wikimedia license and not delete it. If, however, there is something more to it than that, I would appreciate it if you let me know so I can fix it.

Thanks,

Nathan Oh, I didn't mean to push that button! † Oh, well leave a message I guess  18:06, April 1, 2018 (UTC)

Re:Files
Hello Nuke,

The specific reason why I use preview of the files was for space managment. The full version of each image is sometimes very large, on the order of megabytes. Idk if that is permissible on the wiki, but it certainly would be a concern for my computer's speed and efficeincy. I utilize smaller versions of each file, based on how large I need it for the article. Do you know a way I could preserve the proper standard while maintaining space efficiency? Or do you believe it doesn't matter and I overthink it?

Thanks,

Images
I don't seem to be able to upload images anymore. I'm guessing this has something to do with the last file I uploaded; I renamed the file by accident when uploading it, thinking I was putting in the caption. The original image title is "Budapest_1956.png". I've still got it and I'm looking to use it again, this time with the proper title. I'm hoping I'll be allowed to upload it and other images.

Multiple people have complained to me that they are unable to create pages or upload images.

Deleted Image
Hello, I have a question. May I ask why this was deleted? I have looked through the rules, and I don't know what rule I am violating by uploading that image.

Canary Islands in Russian America
Recentlly at my school a Spanish exchange student came, he was from the Canary Islands. Being the ethnic group obsessed person that I am I asked him if there was any berbers or arabs in the Canary Islands. He asked me what a berber was, and said there was no arabs. Anyways I see no way that the Canary Islands would be part of Morrocco. Keep up the good work, am really enjoying the rest of RA!

Ah ok, I think that it is a little confusing to call it Western Saharha because the Canary islands would have the majority of the population. Have you considered Franco doing something similar to what he did OTL except with the Carlist claimate who would have kept it a dictatorship and made it still similar to OTL Tiwan. {{Octs Sig{{

Overdue RE
I have been busy with real life, but I really appreciate this gift :). The spreadsheet is kinda like gold. I also enjoyed the video you sent. It does explain how the fictions of people came about. Commodoities, locations and old stories are creating fictions for the peoples that immigrate to Alaska as well.

Your Ukranian/Russian explanation make sense, the Ukranians that come from warm lowlands or the coast of Crimeria will just as eaisly settle in the warmer parts of the country. Just as Russuans used to their harsher weather will find the colder areas.

I really like as well how you seperated the groups between Slavs, Non Slavic Orthodox, Central European and East-Asian. This really gives a feel for what Alaska feels like.

I would like to ask about the Manchurians, Mongolians and the Natives. I imagine that some of Russia's nomadic people find themselves in Alaska, though I doubt that many Muslims would come in the 19th century when they have the Ottoman Empire as an option. I can eaisly see the 'stepp' peoples of Russia coming in. Would they be under 'Other'?

Does 1.4% of Native Alaskans include Creoles or mixed natives or simpily for full Native Alaskans?

Thanks for the spreadsheet :)

Template:Infobox officeholder
Hi Nuclear, you recently deleted Template:Infobox officeholder, which had been moved by User:NEBroos3v3lt to a Project Page for whatever reason. However, this deletion has resulted in the loss of an important template which is used on multiple pages, including many of those which belong to me, for example

. If this deletion was made in error, I'd greatly appreciate it if you could restore the original template; if not, then a reasoning for the deletion would be too.

Thanks, —  THE TIM TAM  IS MY   SPIRIT ANIMAL  (TSW • AH • MGW • Contribs ) 12:44, May 6, 2018 (UTC)

Expanding on what Tim has said above, you recently nomintated this page for deletion, which solely comprised of the now-deleted template, meaning it appears to have no content when in fact it had a full infobox - I found this can be fixed by changing the first 'o' in 'officeholder' to upper case, so now the page has content, and I fixed several other 'empty' pages by the same user. Let me know if you restore the original template and I can revert my edits. FP Now 10% edgier!!! 20:03, May 6, 2018 (UTC)

Re:Template
Apologies NV, I wasn't intending to butt in as I was meaning to bring the topic up with you anyway, so when I saw Tim had opened the discussion I thought it unnecessary to start a new topic about the same thing. As for the deletion, I misunderstood your reason for the deletion nomination, sorry about that. Based on that page, the author has a slew of other pages of the same format (i.e. infobox only, no content) that you might want to take a look at.

Re: Categorizing
Will avoid doing so. I felt perhaps it was needed to organize subcategories of images such as 'Images of Bill Clinton' should such a category ever be created as mobile users find images and articles put on the same list thus cluttering what they are looking at. But I understand and shall refrain. Since we are on the topic of images may I be permited to create new subcategories for the category Flags? The 'find' option under images doesn't work well as files are not always named properly. I am considering that perhaps categories of some sort may aid in the finding of images so as to avoid replication which so many users have gotten in trouble for. If not the Flags category then perhaps another category where subcategorization is welcomed? My ideas are such categories as 'Christian Flags', 'Blue and Red Flags', 'Blue Red and White Flags' but I understand that the color based categories may be too much (but at least I'm asking to avoid issue (please don't hold it against me I greatly fear your capacity for executive action) Baron Joshua (talk) 22:40, May 14, 2018 (UTC)

Questions
I want to start again in June.

I will concentrate on spelling, grammar and capitalization.

However, I do have a question about formatting.

Most entries start with three apostrophes, the name, a colon, a space, and three apostrophes then the first word with a space between the apostrophes and the first word.

or three apostrophes, the name, three apostrophes, no space, the colon, a space an the first word.

There are also a few different arrangements.

I have been changing them all to three apostrophes, the name, a colon, no space, three apostrophes, a space and the first word.

Which is correct and does it matter the order - so long as I don't change the number of apostrophes?

Also, I have no idea what nowiki means.

Someone else has vandalized my page Germany (Utopia) while I'm editing it. Can you pls fix it? I really need to put a rest on my finger, and help me find that guy who messed it up. Thank you and have a good day. Also, srry for bothering you again :)

Incorrectly nominated for deletion
Hi -- you nominated my article, Superpower Australia for deletion based on "misnamed article". However, I don't see anything in the linked policy that indicates this to be so. Indeed, the end result of the alternative history is Australia becoming the world superpower. SuperpowerAustralia (talk) 15:45, June 4, 2018 (UTC)

Hey there
Hey Nuke, looks like you are doing alot of work here, how are things going?

Stepintime (talk) 17:23, June 4, 2018 (UTC)

I contiune to come to Alt History Wiki to get some rest.

About your concern, I want to explain,

The disclaimer is usually not a section I add for individual articles, but was a decision for that particular article. Imagine is a new user (or we could say for techincaclity sake) or a unique user happens upon this wesbite through the article. To add on that lets imagine that user does not use English as a first language. I could see a misunderstanding and trobule resulting if the user mistakinly belived that the content was being promoted as actual history.

However unlikely I think the disclaimer wil help in that case. Lets remember the context of Japan's actual invasion of China and the causlaties that came as a result. While I think we should be able to write about sensitive subjects here (otherwise there would be little point in writing) taking certain steps to prevent misunderstanding can help.

Why did you delete my map?
Why did you delete the map I uploaded yesterday? Vandenhoek (talk) 17:06, June 8, 2018 (UTC)

I actually put that in the title deliberately to distinguish it from the other version of the map, which I am having trouble uploading currently, but regardless I didn't realize the title would be scrutinized. My apologies, I will try to not put words like that in the title again. That said, I ask that in the future you tell me before you delete something, because I was very confused and at first thought it was vandalism. Thank you, Vandenhoek (talk) 19:19, June 8, 2018 (UTC)

Why did you delete my template?
Why did you delete this template?

[//althistory.wikia.com/wiki/Template:Catholic_People%27s_Party/meta/color http://althistory.wikia.com/wiki/Template:Catholic_People%27s_Party/meta/color]

Elsewhere on the wiki there are templates for other colors, including ones that aren't as useful, so why did you delete this one? This is a beneficial template, it allows me to not have to memorize a hexadecimal string every time I do something involving that party. Furthermore, deleting someone's template is very unnecessary, it's not like it negatively impacts the wiki in any way. Vandenhoek (talk) 04:01, June 12, 2018 (UTC)

"The only purpose of that template was to add a specific color." That's right, like all templates it has a specific function that makes using the wiki easier. The job of any template can be achieved without the template itself, but we make templates so that these tasks are easier and more intuitive, and that we don't have to copy and paste something every single time.

It is completely unnecessary to edit someone's article and delete a template they made. I made that template because it's a lot easier to type the name of the party I want than to search for a hexadecimal string somewhere, so why not use the template? No harm is done by the template existing. Rather, you deleting it causes harm at creators like myself and others, and wastes the time of users who need a template like that. Not to mention the majority of users making a "List of Presidents" page, or something to that effect, copy the table from Wikipedia, and by deleting these templates you are essentially breaking that function, and new users simply copying a template may not know what is wrong or how to fix it. Therefore you are making the wiki harder for new users.

"...this Wiki incorporates multiple timelines with many differing possibilities". That is also true, and if that's the case those users who want a specific color can make their own custom templates, like I did. How does me making a template for my specific color stop someone from being able to use an alternate color for their party? No where in the rules is this disallowed. It's especially frustrating when you choose to delete mine after I worked on it, but not any others, as evidenced by the fact that there are other similar templates on that very page.

It seems like you wanted a task to do, like your mission to delete duplications, but think about the ramifications of what you're doing and if it's actually beneficial to the wiki before you do it. Because I can assure you it is both not beneficial and a waste of your time as a moderator.

For these reasons I will be continuing to make template and I ask that you please do not edit my pages and change or delete things. Thank you, Vandenhoek (talk) 18:57, June 12, 2018 (UTC)

Of course, thank you for understanding. Sorry if I came off as hostile with my message, I was just confused at what was going on and a bit frustrated. Glad we were able to find common ground. Thank you, Vandenhoek (talk) 04:27, June 13, 2018 (UTC)

Scerus (talk) 01:50, July 11, 2018 (UTC)

hello NuclearVacuum,

heres a quick question:

how can i upload files without duplicating them?

Lots of my duplications were because no one told me how to upload a photo or picture without duplicating them.

ROAball (talk) 04:00, July 13, 2018 (UTC)"We Are The Liberators Of Our Motherland"

Hello NuclearVacuum,

I am aware that, recently, I received a strike for uploading several duplicate images/files. I am not asking you to remove the strike, I am just here to let you know that I am relatively inexperienced with this typing platform. I am used to typing things on Microsoft Word and so this whole uploading images kerfuffle is a little confusing.

Just for future reference, how can I see if a file has already been used? How do I know that I am actually uploading a duplicate file? You see, the reason I uploaded another Canadian flag today was because my initial flag had suddenly stopped showing; instead, I got the thing that shows up when an image cannot be found (blank photo with a little photo icon in the top corner). And, when I tried reusing the same image, it would not let me.

Anyway, please do get back to me whenever you can and I hope you can help me with this issue; I don't want to get any more strikes! Thank you!

Hi,

I have another problem.

As I said earlier, I'm quite a novice with this site.

I have just spent a good hour typing up a page for my alternate history and have accidentally closed the tab. Literally all of my work is gone. It's extremely hard to refrain from taking this all out on you, but I'm on my last straw right now and if you don't help me recover the darned thing I expect I'll be receiving another strike, if not two, after you receive a barrage of abuse from me (neither of us wants that to happen).

Posting maps and graphics of my interpretation of events in Great White South
Howdy! You may recall last year I showed you a GIF I made outlining some of the major political changes in the Great White South. I've become very interested in the timeline again, around the same time as last year strangely enough, I've been brimming with excitement to make more content at least about GWS, if not actual accepted contributions. Would it be alright by you if I posted graphics, maps, and other media on outside sites (AH.com and DeviantArt) that's clearly stated to be my own interpretation of events and settings in GWS? Of course I would have no problem running things past you before post anything, and would make it clear that you're credited for your work and that my creations are in no way cannonical. Here's a link to the first such map I'd like to post, showing political control in Russian Antarctica in 1918, just prior to the outbreak of civil war. Tychedog (talk) 05:10, July 19, 2018 (UTC)

Timeline question
Hey Nuke! I had a question for a timeline I started. It takes place in a world where the allies won world war 1. And yes I know what you are probably thinking right now, the allies DID win WW1, and that this is no alternate history, but here me out; this timeline is supposed to be made by people that live in a world where Germany won WW1, and how they hypothesize a potential allied victory in WW1. I wanted to know if such a thing was allowed, Noe to clarify, yes, this timeline is going to be different from OTL, and it won’t be the same as OTL. I await your response!

Re:Kaliningrad Timeline Idea
I want to thank you for the notes and advice, I've just created the homepage and editorial guidelines for the timeline (titled German Kaliningrad) and you (and anyone else) are welcome to contribute to the timeline. I am curious over what form of government a German Kaliningrad would have, if it would be a German Land or a Russian Federal Subject, a republic or a restored Hohenzollern monarchy if it becomes independent. The only thing that I have figured out is that this territory would be named Prussia and it is home to the Volga Germans and Poland's (OTL) German Minority, along with a large East Slavic (mostly Russian) minority and some of the Pre-War German expelles. During the Soviet era, the city of Königsberg (Kaliningrad) would probably be renamed in honor of a German communist. I'm still working on a scenario for this new timeline, it may not be totally realistic but I hope to maintain some plausibility.DasBull$ (talk) 21:43, August 14, 2018 (UTC)

Hey Nuke, I was wondering what a WW2 would look like with a communist Germany and a Fascist Russia? It’s for my Allied Victory timeline and I need ideas, like who or what would start the war and who would win? Of course this WW2 would include Britain, Francs, and America. I hope to hear your response! Cybermats, created by the Cybermen, they kill by feeding off Brainwaves 14:44, August 25, 2018 (UTC)

Thanks! Yeah I’ve got the communist Germany and fascist Russia figured out (the german revolution of 1918 succeeds) and the whites lead by Kolchak ein and Kolchak becomes dictator (leading to a fascist-esc Government). I am wondering how WW2 would start and who would be the “bad guy” in the war. Cybermats, created by the Cybermen, they kill by feeding off Brainwaves 16:28, August 29, 2018 (UTC)

Also Kolchak’s Government is super expansionist and Germany more peaceful.

An explanation
As you well know, I've been often acting erractically on this wiki, tagging files for deletion and so on. But I have OCD and often act without any rationality or consideration of my actions. At this juncture, I'm finding it difficult to control it. Until I recover fully, it is best you find ways to prevent me from editing any of my files I've updated to this wiki. I see you've done that with my images too, thanks for that. I do realise how stupid and futile it is - but it is difficult to control.

Culture of Alaska in RA
Hey Nuuk, long time no see! So recently I’ve decided to return to your Alaska timeline and look at the culture of it (since I’ve had a spark of interest in culture lately). When I looked at the page I found there was no culture section! Which was very disappointing to me. Though I’ve read your sandbox which gives more detail to popular culture of Alaska, but for me i’m Looking for stuff like traditions, Holidays, clothing, you get the picture. I already know that most of alaska’s culture will be very similar to mainland Russian and Siberian culture, but i’d Also like to hear about how that culture has grown over the centuries!

Re:Wiping Pages
I'm afraid that I do not know what you are talking about? I thought that File:Union flag 1606 (Kings Colors).svg was renamed to File:Flag of Great Britain (1707–1800).svg since it redirects to the latter if you click on the former. And so I changed it so the image could be seen to readers. I meant no harm...

P.S. I'm having a little trouble with the script. When I first published this message, the font was enlargened and bold. I think I may have some sort of an error on my computer, for which I hope that I will be able to fix. I thought I should let you know in case if you were curious as to why I was publishing an editing this message over and over...

Alexander the Liberator Revamp
Hello,

I've come to seek your advice. I want to do a revamp of my timeline, Alexander the Liberator (my proudest achievement on this site). There are aspects that make me uncomfortable and disregard some of the canon that I established. These include: Those are the main things that I want to revamp. I think that I could change a little more of the timeline, as I want to make it as realistic as possible (even with President Trotsky). Some of the important aspects of the timeline will be left unchanged, such as the assassination of Tsar Nicholas II in 1905, Communist America, ideological changes for major figues (such as a Communist Ted Cruz and a nationalist Josip Broz Tito), and Josef Stalin never gaining any major power.
 * 1) Status of Vardar Macedonia: Bulgaria does not get involved in the First World War as I plan for the country to gain control over Vardar Macedonia following the timeline's version of the Balkan Wars. I see no reason for Bulgaria to involve herself in the Second World War (unless to not have Hitler's armies march through Sofia) as the country has Macedonia.
 * 2) Borders of Alaska: In this timeline, Alaska is established by the Anti-Trotsky military lead by General Dwight David Esienhower. I do not believe that this Alaska would have the OTL borders of the state of Alaska, I do think that the country would be larger in area. Much of Alaska is cold for many anyhow.
 * 3) Prime Ministers of Russia: I am not too sure about this one, I think that Russia may have had more than twelve Prime Ministers if Tsar Alexander and Witte were able to establish a Westminister style parliament.

Is there anything that you think that I could do to improve the timeline? I would appreciate your help and advice, I just want to improve my timeline.

P.S. I also want to say that I won't edit a page without permission, I just thought that the Prussian page from 13 Fallen Stars needed some improvement.
