Bogus template

Someone has stuck on a template saying this article is to be edited in British English. O really? Can someone please take this absurd template off this page, as it is some dank Wikimagic beyond my powers to fix. --Wtshymanski (talk) 20:38, 23 January 2020 (UTC)[reply]

About etnicity

I would add that he was Croatian-Serbian-American scientist because he was born in Croatia and he said:"I am proud of my Serbian etnicity and my Croatian homeland." Dragstar123 (talk) 16:57, 18 February 2020 (UTC)[reply]

Please look through the archives, this has been discussed a Billion times. - FlightTime (open channel) 17:04, 18 February 2020 (UTC)[reply]

This is a good place to start Talk:Nikola_Tesla/Nationality_and_ethnicity/Archive_11 - FlightTime (open channel) 17:09, 18 February 2020 (UTC)[reply]

@Dragstar123: I agree with FlightTime, and all discussion of Tesla's nationality/ethnicity must be done on Talk:Nikola_Tesla/Nationality_and_ethnicity; see note at top of page. --Chetvorno^TALK 21:26, 18 February 2020 (UTC)[reply]

@FlightTime: Doesn't the archive bot thingie do it automatically? --Chetvorno^TALK 21:26, 18 February 2020 (UTC)[reply]

@Chetvorno: Sorry, do what ? - FlightTime (open channel) 21:30, 18 February 2020 (UTC)[reply]

Automatically archive the page when it gets to a certain length/number of threads. Most archived pages seem to do that. --Chetvorno^TALK 21:44, 18 February 2020 (UTC)[reply]

@Chetvorno: yes, it is done automatically by the bot, but sometimes discussions get so long (and the bot won't break a thread) and the page gets too long. - FlightTime (open channel) 22:43, 18 February 2020 (UTC)[reply]

Oh, ok. It would be fine with me if you want to archive the page. --Chetvorno^TALK 16:22, 19 February 2020 (UTC)[reply]

Coronary Thrombosis

Nikola Tesla died of Coronary thrombosis. Very disapointed that I cannot edit this for the better but maybe someone can ? Dizdop (talk) 18:09, 13 March 2020 (UTC)[reply]

Not done: Coronary thrombosis is already covered, if you think it should be changed to something else please provide reliable sources that support the change you want to be made. Fountains of Bryn Mawr (talk) 18:56, 13 March 2020 (UTC)[reply]

User Sadko problem with sh

User Sadko what is your problem now?--Tuvixer (talk) 20:17, 23 March 2020 (UTC)[reply]

I don’t agree with calling the user name out this way. But to the subject matter, it is worth noting that there is a double standard on how the birthplace and name linguistic denomination is handled here compared to Ivo Andrić. Both subjects were of ethnic orgins different than the territory they were born in. 74.101.190.2 (talk) 22:04, 24 March 2020 (UTC)[reply]

There is no "double standard", different biographies - different facts (ethnic origin, place of birth, place of living, expressed patriotism etc.) - different approach. As you can see, I did not remove the change to SH on Ivo Andrić, because it is per facts. I do not plan to debate with editors who lack basic manners, are behaving like punks in kafana while labeling other editors and ignoring Wikipedia:Civility. Sadkσ (talk is cheap) 12:50, 25 March 2020 (UTC)[reply]
