replies: text: Its not totally official yet but here: http://www.tsn.ca/nhl/news_story/?ID=173939&hubname=nhl Yes it is the better known Petr Sykora, not the other one currently with the Caps (Petr Sýkora (ice hockey b. 1978)) ccwaters 19:44, 11 August 2006 (UTC)
replies: text: It's official now. He was signed by the Edmonton Oilers earlier today to a one-year contract with no financial details disclosed. You might as well provide the news article from the Edmonton Oilers' official website as the citation that's requested in the main article. http://www.edmontonoilers.com/news/index.php?id=691
I'm not sure where to put this, but the statement about Sykora playing with Crosby first, then he was switched to Malkin when Crosby got hurt...that is simply not true.  Sykora got the least amount of ice time with Crosby of anyone on the team, including grinders.  The only time Sykora got with Crosby was on the powerplay.  —Preceding unsigned comment added by Zlj2755 (talk • contribs) 03:42, 16 July 2008 (UTC)

message: "During the 2005-06 NHL season, he and the management of the Mighty Ducks no longer saw eye-to-eye and..." how would we know that they no longer saw eye to eye? Any references that could be used to prove this? Also, it sounds a little funny in my opinion...not funny like it didn't happen...funny like it seems out of place. Bsroiaadn 18:08, 2 May 2007 (UTC)

*Support Per WP:COMMONNAME as all sources used in the article show the name spelled without diacritics. This is the English Wikipedia, and according to the policy of WP:EN, a biographical article does not use the subject's name as it might be spelled in Czech as its article title, nor does it use the person's legal name as it might appear on a birth certificate or passport; it instead uses the name that is most frequently used to refer to the subject in English-language reliable sources. Simply put, the use of "Sykora" is verified by the sources used within the article, and "Sýkora" is not. Dolovis (talk) 14:28, 9 June 2011 (UTC)

text: You know your supports/opposes would carry alot more weight if you would use a reason other than that. Since that is completely false and you have been shown countless references showing you that there are diacritics in English. -DJSasso (talk) 15:47, 9 June 2011 (UTC)
replies: text: There's no dios in the english alphabet. GoodDay (talk) 15:49, 9 June 2011 (UTC)
replies: text: Right but this is the English-language wikipedia. Not the English-alphabet wikipedia. -DJSasso (talk) 15:51, 9 June 2011 (UTC)
replies: text: The english alphabet is the core of the english language. PS: The closing administrator of each RM, will have to weigh the comments. GoodDay (talk) 15:53, 9 June 2011 (UTC)
replies: text: The alphabet is only part of it. The rest is the orthography, which is the part of the language that includes the diacritics. Both together make up the language. This is why your argument is ridiculous in the wake of huge amounts of references you have been given. Your argument is the equivalent of saying there is no beef in a hotdog because there is no beef in the bun. Which of course is silly because both the bun and the wiener make up the hotdog and there is beef in the weiner. Two separate things that contribute to the whole. -DJSasso (talk) 15:59, 9 June 2011 (UTC)
replies: text: The closing administrator will decide the weight of my argument. As I noted above, atleast Dolovis is going the RM route. GoodDay (talk) 16:08, 9 June 2011 (UTC)
replies: text: Except that there is already a discussion going on about it at another location. He is opening as many discussions as he can so that people can't keep up with them all. This is why he was asked to discuss at a centralized discussion. He is being disruptive. As much or more so than those who didn't discuss earlier because he already knows that a discussion is on going. -DJSasso (talk) 16:12, 9 June 2011 (UTC)
replies: text: That's Dolovis' choice, to open numerious RMs. GoodDay (talk) 16:19, 9 June 2011 (UTC)
replies: text: Of course it is. Just like vandalizing a page is a choice. Doesn't mean its an ok choice.  -DJSasso (talk) 16:21, 9 June 2011 (UTC)
replies: text: Dolovis hasn't been banned or blocked, therefore his actions haven't been ruled as disruptive. I give him much credit, he's approached the dios argument much better prepared, then I ever did. GoodDay (talk) 16:29, 9 June 2011 (UTC)
replies: text: There's a sharp difference between approaching something well prepared and launching multiple assaults. Dolovis is simply launching multiple, disruptive assaults. If he were "well prepared" he wouldn't have to go this route. He could win this ridiculous "War on Diacritics" at a centralized location and stop abusing everyone's time. Seriously, his actions haven't been banned or blocked because no one has yet to take a serious issue with them. – Nurmsook! talk... 20:23, 11 June 2011 (UTC)

text: Comment: I hope that the closing admin will take into consideration that Darwinek may have violated WP:Canvassing by his targeted notice here to the members of  WikiProject Czech Republic. Dolovis (talk) 01:49, 11 June 2011 (UTC)
replies: text:  As you are well aware, the  discussion you are referring to is still “going around in circles”, and it is abundantly clear no consensus to change policy will be reached, so the current policy of WP:EN and WP:COMMONNAME remain in effect. Dolovis (talk) 04:13, 15 June 2011 (UTC)
replies: text: The policies you refer to do not discount the use of diacritics. You should probably check your sources before throwing nonsense around. – Nurmsook! talk... 21:32, 15 June 2011 (UTC)
