Photos still needing identification:
Once again, I'm trying to ID some photos I took in Bucharest. I'll start out with two of them. These are in the Lipscani district. - Jmabel | Talk 06:44, 22 August 2006 (UTC)

message: Talk:Val d'Aran#Romanians: the Val d'Aran is a small, Gascon-speaking region mainly on the north side of the Pyrenees, but within the borders of Catalonia, Spain. Apparently, there are several hundred Romanians living there. - Jmabel | Talk 21:33, 2 November 2006 (UTC)
replies: text: The most Romanians in Spain are in the Castellón Province, 40-80,000, of which around 20,000 live in the capital, Castellón de la Plana. (figures taken from random sites/newspaper articles) bogdan 21:39, 2 November 2006 (UTC)

message: Undocumented material about abuse of prisoners on both sides was added to Siege of Pleven. See Talk:Siege of Pleven#Abuse of prisoners. I know very little about this, and would appreciate if someone more knowledgable would weigh in. - Jmabel | Talk 20:16, 5 November 2006 (UTC)

message: Education in Romania has had a recent major overhaul. On the whole, it seems to have been good, but there is some poor writing and POV; for example, the very first sentences are "As Romania is strongly committed to join European Union in 2007, the Romanian educational system was drastically reformed to adjust to these new commendments. Many reforms are still strongly required." (What the heck is a "commendment", anyway?). Someone may want to give this a thorough going over; it should probably be someone with good English who knows the Romanian educational system well, and I only meet the first requirement. - Jmabel | Talk 19:36, 19 November 2006 (UTC)

message: If someone has education budget data, please contribute (or at least post the information here or on Talk:Education in Romania.
Examples of useful info (but don't feel limited by this list): 
#Overall budget: 
##absolute figures
##GDP percentage
##Law requirements (I seem to remember that there's a law requiring that a minimal PIB percentage should go to education. This law is never respected.
#Budget of pre-university, university, and government agencies.

thread_title: Looking for Education budget figures

message: Could some of you, folks, take a look at the new intro and "Basic organization" section of the Romanian Education System? Please, add missing info. In particular, I don't really know how to classify language/computers/accounting schools. Are this "postliceal", or "lifelong learning"? Dpotop 10:21, 24 November 2006 (UTC)

message: I am probably not the best person to be engaging Romanian National Vanguard; would someone else please commit to watching the article and trying to sort it out? The presumably autobiographical User:Ronatvan removed , , and , none of which had been addressed, as well as de-linking the Holocaust. I reverted, but I'd really rather not deal with this one on a continuing basis - Jmabel | Talk 01:13, 29 November 2006 (UTC)
replies: text: Joe, why not just AfD it? The entire article is a piece of crap, and the only google link that is not wiki-related is their goddamn site. It looks like they are only gathering followers in this manner, and wikipedia should not be helping them achieve the notability needed for them to have a wiki article... I mean, you ask for someone to balance the text, but you would have to find someone who has heard of them or cares about them enough to criticize them. I could start the procedure, so it does not seem like you're acting unilaterally against the article. Dahn 01:26, 29 November 2006 (UTC)

message: Exista cumva vreun infobox care ar putea fi folosit la articolele despre comunele din România? Similar celui de la wiki-ro, :ro:Format:Cutie Comune România. --Roamataa 15:40, 3 December 2006 (UTC)
replies: text: Se pare că unii folosesc cutia Template:Infobox City in Romania pentru acest scop. De exemplu comuna Unguriu o conţine. TSO1D 16:22, 3 December 2006 (UTC)
replies: text: Am văzut-o pe aceasta, dar nu conţine, spre exemplu satele componente, ca şi la wiki-ro. Eventual aş putea să o traduc din română şi să o folosesc aici? --Roamataa 19:24, 3 December 2006 (UTC)

message: I don't know if you would like to add something to the article Leonard Orban, new Romanian European Commissioner for Multilingualism. I have found adequate information on his plans as commissioner -i have added some of it already at the article, but there are few things known for his pre-Commissioner-designate era. I do not have access to sources in Romanian.--Michkalas 21:18, 4 December 2006 (UTC)
