message: There is a sentence in the text: «But later Zaporozhian Cossack Grigory Potemkin, and apparently without Kalnyshevky's knowledge, reached an agreement to allow a group of 50 Cossacks under the guidance of a starshyna Lyakh to go fishing in the river Ingul next to the Southern Buh in Ottoman territory and to issue 50 passports.»
Grigory_Potemkin was not Zaporozhian Cossack at all. He was someone quite opposite in fact ) Kaktuse (talk) 08:16, 28 April 2017 (UTC)

replies: text: Mikka I am still working to finish this article and in my draft is just about to add refrences. What kind of admin uses foul language and reverts edits? What has happened to you? --Kuban Cossack 16:35, 21 February 2008 (UTC)
replies: text: OK. Restored for now. I expect references ASAP. I strongly suggest you to refresh your knowledge ofwikipedia:Attribution. You are not a newcomer who must be politely warned three times and then blocked to stop him from violating wikipedia policies. Citing sources is an absolutely fundamental policies. Please change your writing style so that you put in references simultaneously with text.  P.S.  Did I act as an admin? Do you think only admins must not use foul language? Do you think calling someone's actions as "vandalism" without seeing and responding to an edit summary is nice and polite? `'Míkka>t 16:46, 21 February 2008 (UTC)
replies: text: This language and tone is completely unacceptable, Mikkalai. Tone it done and WP:AGF. Lawrence § t/e 16:49, 21 February 2008 (UTC)

text: Well until now reverting massive expansions is something that I felt until then only POV-pushers could be capable of... but even they now seem like angels. Mikka what prevented you from putting an  tag? --Kuban Cossack 16:53, 21 February 2008 (UTC)
replies: text: Probably to make more enemies. I've seen "unreferenced" tags sitting for years collecting more and more text , mixed with facts and bullshit.  `'Míkka>t 16:56, 21 February 2008 (UTC)
replies: text: Yes but I still don't feel that a full revert is justified, if I mean most of my articles on Metro stations don't have a reference what are you now going to delete them all? --Kuban Cossack 17:16, 21 February 2008 (UTC)
replies: text: You know it and you are sitting on your hands?  What can I say.... `'Míkka>t 17:56, 21 February 2008 (UTC)

text: Well Mikka I've added the references. If you want particular facts cited indicate with the fact icon and I will acquire a direct quote from each of the sources listed below. There are others that I used as well, and I will put them up in due course. Most are online so you can easily verify them.  --Kuban Cossack 17:32, 21 February 2008 (UTC)
replies: text: It is not that I have specific problems with the content.  I do have problems with the contribution style without references. This is not the first cossack article written without references. It was happening quite often in the early days of wikipedia. It is not OK now. No I am not going to delete old texts. But do you seriously think it will be much better that after each your edit I will jump in and tag every your added sentence with ? Surely it will bump up my edit count enormously :-). But why don't you follow the rule from the very beginning? `'Míkka>t 17:56, 21 February 2008 (UTC)
replies: text: Look you are going to know teach me how to write articles, after all the time that I was here... Seriously who do you think I am? When I write articles in wiki, I want to see my source text without being interrupted by five lines of ref this and ref that, so I can easily change it so it reads nicely. By that point quotes and citations can be lost. Which is why, unless its something specific, I usually rarely add to text, and instead just let the source of information to be shown on the bottom. Even now after the incident the article is still far from complete. Hear this though every single historical fact that is supposed to have happened in this article can be instantly verified.  --Kuban Cossack 18:01, 21 February 2008 (UTC)
replies: text: I understand your position, but you have to understand mine as well. Please think something in between. Please remember you are not alone editor. Someone else may start inserting text in between. How I can figure out what is yours, taken from sources listed in the end? I am repeating, I have deleted quite a few bullshit from insides of articles copied, e.g., from EB1911 long ago and happily forgotten since then. How about placing references at the end of each paragraph? `'Míkka>t 18:21, 21 February 2008 (UTC)
replies: text: What will that do? In that case every paragraph will get the same number of citations. --Kuban Cossack 18:32, 21 February 2008 (UTC)
replies: text: It will make the paragraph referenced, as long as you fill not formally cut and paste the same list of refs and make sure that the paragraph's content comes from them. If someone else adds something suspicious inside your paragraph, I may check your sources and say "hey, this statement is not in the sources cited. Please provide your ref".  `'Míkka>t 19:12, 21 February 2008 (UTC)
replies: text: Can that wait until I finish the article which will probably be tomorrow? --Kuban Cossack 19:20, 21 February 2008 (UTC)
