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.

May I ask why you removed ALL the images from the Maxorata Empire's alternate history pages? Is having your own flag wrong? And maps? And basically all historical images? Because unless it is I find your act of deleting them extremely disrespectful. Last time I checked it isn't a crime.

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

Yeah I’m back again, with yet another problem, the election Infobox for this Article: [General Election 2017 (A Free China)], it’s acting all weird. I deleted some of the sections I didn’t need such as the homestates and party colors, but I don’t know if that’s the problem or not. I hope you can fix it, and sorry if you are getting annoyed with me coming back with these problems, I am not that professional. 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)

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

SigmaHero045 (talk) 01:37, February 26, 2018 (UTC)

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

In this talk page i used it, the flag i mean. 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"? In that case i'm sorry). SigmaHero045 (talk) 00:27, February 27, 2018 (UTC)

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!

Colgan dog (talk) 21:52, March 1, 2018 (UTC)

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.

my article and flag
I fixed the article is it alright to remove the deletion thing or not and also why did you delete the flag for misleading name when it was not misleading

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)
