Old stuff[edit]

Sorry for Romanian translations in (brackets) but I was in a hurry to finish so I had to add the original text where translations were uncertain.

- Revolutionary

I changed and "whether or not Iliescu directly told them to clear the University Square" by "following the orders of Iliescu, who directly told them to clear the university square".

This is not political propaganda but the pure truth. Go to http://www.avmr.ro/media.php and listen to Iliescu's original speeches to the miners. "Va rugam sa ocupati piata universitatii...ati venit la chemarea noastra" (English: Please occupy the university square...you came at our call).

Citation needed?I hardly think that's possible.There is no way to be citing that as nobody would officially state that.If any articles appear on the internet reflecting this view they can't be cited as attendable source.It is mostly propaganda or subjective views.These events are already of great historical nature and yet they can't be judged impartially by "offcial" historians.Whichever they may be.It takes not much knowledge of developments in Romania after 1990 to understand that.Many of the persons involved are still alive and in power.Iliescu is being heared by the Justice Court but that's about it. "The Mineriad of June 1990 was a staged event, not a spontaneous one" should be changed in "The Mineriad of June 1990 is (widely) believed to have been a staged event, not a spontaneous one, with political implications, going all the way to the Presidency and National Secret Services." as to reflect a degree of impartiality.(it is also true,and lots of proof exist,that a "wide believe" of this thesis exist among Romanians). "The Mineriads of 1990 and 1991 stand alongside the events in Târgu Mureş in 1990 as examples of mass manipulation in a KGB style"."KGB style" is very subjective so I can't think of an option to that but "examples of mass manipulation" could be changed to a form on the same judgement as above or a conclusion of it(staged event -> mass manipulation).--Radufan 17:06, 24 January 2006 (UTC)[reply]

I subscribe to your post. Actually, we are not making history here. The fact that most editors here were of the "Piata Universitatii" stock really shows. But I presume these guys will not accept to change the current position. What I tried to do (look at the previous version) is to push to the surface actual facts.

I found a Caţavencu issue that has articles mostly from newspapers that were friendly to the FSN and Ion Iliescu. It includes quotes from Iliescu and Petre Roman. I'll try to add the information to the article this week. bogdan 16:10, 27 January 2006 (UTC)[reply]
It would be perfect. And then, we will be able to rephrase a bit the introduction.Dpotop 16:49, 27 January 2006 (UTC)[reply]

Fair use rationale for Image:University Square Bucharest 1990.jpg[edit]

Image:University Square Bucharest 1990.jpg is being used on this article. I notice the image page specifies that the image is being used under fair use but there is no explanation or rationale as to why its use in this Wikipedia article constitutes fair use. In addition to the boilerplate fair use template, you must also write out on the image description page a specific explanation or rationale for why using this image in each article is consistent with fair use.

Please go to the image description page and edit it to include a fair use rationale. Using one of the templates at Wikipedia:Fair use rationale guideline is an easy way to insure that your image is in compliance with Wikipedia policy, but remember that you must complete the template. Do not simply insert a blank template on an image page.

If there is other fair use media, consider checking that you have specified the fair use rationale on the other images used on this page. Note that any fair use images lacking such an explanation can be deleted one week after being tagged, as described on criteria for speedy deletion. If you have any questions please ask them at the Media copyright questions page. Thank you.

New source II[edit]

A site made by the Association of Victims of the Mineriads http://www.mineriada.org/ —Preceding unsigned comment added by 89.40.240.184 (talk) 01:43, 14 June 2008 (UTC)[reply]

Craiova or Dolj?[edit]

I have no idea whether this is a correction or the introduction of an error, since there is no edit summary, and in any case neither claim provides a citation. - Jmabel | Talk 08:07, 2 December 2009 (UTC)[reply]

Considering there's no "Craiova" county, I think the edit is OK.Anonimu (talk) 14:01, 2 December 2009 (UTC)[reply]
