User talk:Mukadderat/Talk archive 1

Hi

Thank you for the civil message. Hopefully, the issue is resolved now. Peace. --Striver - talk 08:51, 28 December 2006 (UTC)

Thanks for making the edit to our page. We really appreciate it!--Cougar11 18:44, 20 September 2007 (UTC)

Namus

I added a link on the Namus talk page to some new material that may want to incorporate and footnote into the article. -- Jreferee 19:25, 29 December 2006 (UTC)

An article which you started, or significantly expanded, namus, was selected for DYK!

On January 3, 2007, Did you know? was updated with a fact from the article namus, which you created or substantially expanded. If you know of another interesting fact from a recently created article, then please suggest it on the "Did you know?" talk page.

Thanks for your contributions! Nishkid64 03:45, 3 January 2007 (UTC)

Islam and women

Hi! The category you made needs to be consistent with other cats and its own content. Out of pages about Persian women, only one article namely Persian women's movement may belong to this category, as Islamic law is in power during last three decades and Persian women (muslims, jewish, christian, atheists ...) are all struggling with Islamic laws. Other articles can not be categorized under Islam as Persian culture is more close to Zoroastrianism than to Islam. Please discuss your ideas with wikipedians working on Iranian pages before editing them in future. Categorizing people based on religion is not acceptable unless the person is a cleric or religion is the dominant feature of his/her identity. See categories for deletion: Fooladin 21:21, 3 January 2007 (UTC)

Yes, "Allah is patient." But it seems you are not! The definition of a category must be based on consensus. Apparently you think "nothing can be done without your approval." You said "This category is about women interacting with Islam." Well the answer is simple. This is your personal definition. Ofcourse western societies (including women!) are also struggling with Islam. Islamic society either means ummah (the accurate meaning) or arab society (as arab culture and islamic culture are melted in eachother). The article on "Iranian women" is not about women of modern Iran. Modern Iranian women (19th century and 20th century) is the subject of "Persian women's movement". Any material in wikipedia needs to be based on consensus. I have seen that you refuse to categorize pages about European women and American women under "Category:Christianity and women". Are you saying women in Europe did not interact with christianity? Why should we have always a double standard? I will never be tired of discussion. and I try to assume good faith. Fooladin 09:07, 5 January 2007 (UTC)

OK. You convinced me. You convinced me that you are seriously committed to ignore other people's opinion and are going to use all kinds of crooked logic and insinuations. If you are going to pull this "double standard" trick, why don't you go and create category:Iranian men? Mukadderat 08:21, 6 January 2007 (UTC)

Answer to your question: "Are you saying Iran is not Islamic country?" Viewing Iran as a Islamic country is the Iran's government's policy which has been critisized widely during last three decades. The word ummah was used by Ayatollah Khomeini for the first time in Iran and was a part of his policy. Yes, Iran is NOT an Islamic country (a meaningless term), Iran has an Islamic government. Any ways, It is a contemporary issue and contemporary Iranian women is the subject of "Persian women's movement" article. "Iranian women" article is about Persian culture and how women were depicted in miniatures, poetry, literature in ancient times. How traditional Persian dress look like etc. It means the article tries to define Persian women in contrast to women in other cultures including Islamic culture. For example You see pictures of women with no Islamic dress, drinking wine etc. This is the dominant picture of women in Persian miniatures. I am not saying this culture is good or bad. I am not saying muslim women and Islamic culture is good or bad either. I hope it is now clear. Fooladin 09:45, 5 January 2007 (UTC)

Not clear. there are women. There is a dominant religion. It is even more interesting to see that "islamic" dress is not an obligatory attribute of Islam, despite Western attempts to draw this picture of "women in black" over all Islamic world. By refusing my classification you are effectively supporting the western stereotype that Islamic world is all harems, stoning of women, forced marriages, jihad, paranja/hijab/chachvan, ritual killings (while Christian World is all peace and democracy and women rights) What?... There is no Christian World in wikipedia???? Mukadderat 17:22, 6 January 2007 (UTC)

Done. SlimVirgin 22:30, 21 February 2007 (UTC)

DYK

On 30 March, 2007, Did you know? was updated with a fact from the article Rhymed prose, which you created or substantially expanded. If you know of another interesting fact from a recently created article, then please suggest it on the "Did you know?" talk page.

Crazy Commies

I noticed that you (might or might not) have the article Economy of the Soviet Union in your watchlist. This article is need of serious work but it's a big task. If you are so interested I'd love your help. NeoFreak 22:50, 30 March 2007 (UTC)

No. I just joined "vandalism patrol". Unfortunately I have absolutely nothing to say about Soviet Union. Judging from the very sparse talk in the talk page, I see that no one is really interested in beating the dead horse. Mukadderat 23:06, 30 March 2007 (UTC)

No worries. I'm going to beat that dead horse to death (again) when I find the time. Right now I'm embroiled in a disaster with the NeoPagan wikiproject so I'll just hope that I have the time to get around to it. I've also raised some some concerns about the deltion project after Elara left. I'm pretty sure you're a member but I might be wrong. Hit me up about that when you get a chance. NeoFreak 23:15, 30 March 2007 (UTC)

No, I am not an "official and self-aware deletionist", but I do sometimes spend some time on voting for deletion (and mostly for deletion; I maintain that if something is worth keeping, someone will write a good article sooner or later, so no reasn to "defend" them in AfD, so in a way yes, I am a "deletionist", but not a "proactive" one). Mukadderat 23:26, 30 March 2007 (UTC)

I don't want you to think that I'm asking for support, the creation of the new deltionist cabal is a bit away :). Don't worry about upadating my talk page, I'll just watchlist yours. you and I seem to have alot of congruent opinions on Misplaced Pages, I'll just let that run its course. NeoFreak 00:01, 31 March 2007 (UTC)

Previous AfD vote

Hi. You previously voted in an AfD for Tim Bowles. Would you please pop over to Misplaced Pages:Articles for deletion/Tim Bowles (3rd nomination) and give us your input again? Thanks. --Justanother 20:20, 13 April 2007 (UTC)

Prothesis

Hello,

I'm trying to make the articles on sound changes/rhetorical devices more precise, and also to give them a common format. The section on prothesis as it is now is I think a loosely structured laundry list. I want to categorize the different types of prothesis according to the different senses of the word, which may refer either to 1. a historical sound change, or 2. a grammatical rule. That's how I've organized other articles on related topics. I don't see that any important information was lost in the change. If there is something specific that you think was deleted, how about we change the article to my new format, and you add in that information in the appropriate place? All your reverts have certainly removed at least 1 bit of specific information (the IPA pronunciation and the corrected etymology).--Gheuf 19:13, 30 April 2007 (UTC)

Green Andy

Dear Sir,

I created the page Green Andy. The page is fully notable with multiple sources (if you want more please ask), and it is about an Existing person. If you wish, I can give you his e-mail for contact to him personally. Lets settle this civily, not by deleteng and leaving everyone with hurt feelings.

-Abi bu makalenin yazarı sensin değil mi? Kaynakçasına birkaç birşey ekle, gözünü seveyim. Yahu burası önyargılı 'admin'lerle, önyargılı kullanıcılarla kaynıyor; vallahi ellerinden gelse Müslüman toplumlara karşı işlenmiş suçlarla ilgili her makaleyi yerler.

-You are the author of this page, right? Please add a few references to your work... you know, this place is crawling with prejudiced admins and users; given half a chance, they'd eat every article that focuses on the atrocies suffered by Muslim populations. --Alperkaan 08:36, 16 May 2007 (UTC)

AFD discussion

Hello, you participated in the AfD discussion for Lowercase i prefix. That discussion was closed with a "keep" decision but I felt there was enough consensus to warrant merging the information to Internet-related prefixes. I have placed a comment regarding my decision to go ahead and perform this merge on the talk page here and as you participated in the original discussion wished to alert you to this action and invite you to comment if you felt it was inappropriate. Thanks! Arkyan • 06:05, 29 May 2007 (UTC)

Thanks

For reverting the edits made by Mcat31, seems that whoever it is is intent on making small changes in the hopes that they go unnoticed. Thanks again :) Sephui 08:36, 30 May 2007 (UTC)

Vesica piscis

You have continued to ignore everyone else and delete content from this article saying it is supposedly "unreferenced", after plenty of references for it have already been provided both in the article and in the talk page, but which you have obviously preferred not to have even a cursory look at. If you continue with this attitude, I will report you for vandalism. Uaxuctum 11:55, 6 June 2007 (UTC)

The references for the geometric construction are available both in the article and in the talk page. You have been warned twice but chose to ignore it, so now you will be reported for your continued vandalic edits to this article.

Please stop. If you continue to blank out (or delete portions of) page content, templates or other materials from Misplaced Pages, as you did to Vesica piscis, you will be blocked from editing. <unsigned; added by : Uaxuctum 11:55, 6 June 2007 (UTC)>

All explained in edit comments and talk:Vesica piscis. Please use article talk page to resolve disagreements, rather than arbitrarily apply tags intended for anynymous vandals. Please also don't forget to sign your posts in talk pages. Mukadderat 16:36, 6 June 2007 (UTC)

Estophobia vs Russophobia

Hi! You voted for deletion of the article Estophobia. Are not the same arguments applicable to Russophobia as well?--Mbuk 07:15, 14 July 2007 (UTC)

Misplaced Pages:Articles for deletion/Jumpswing (2nd nomination)

Since you commented on the first AfD for Jumpswing, I would like to invite you to the 2nd nomination. panda 14:38, 20 August 2007 (UTC)

Misplaced Pages:Requests for mediation/Islamophobia

Hello! As it would appear, you have not been participating on the Islamophobia RFM. Seeing as you have been listed as an involved party, I think it would be worthwhile if you were to take a look at the discussion and add your own insight. This would be more helpful in reaching an agreement over how to handle the article. Thank you! MessedRocker (talk) 21:55, 22 August 2007 (UTC)

The new version was developed to address a number of flaws in the old version. It is a good-faith attempt to resolve some very contentious disputes. Please give it a chance. Alexwoods 21:43, 14 September 2007 (UTC)

Deletion policy

Muk: I do not find it be to helpful for a policy to say what the subject not. I prefer policy to say what the subject is. Telling me that courtesy blanking is "extremely rare" is not helpful. The only user at Misplaced Pages that I have ever seen do courtesy blanking is Jimbo. It goes against the undocumented goal of transparency. That transparency is more a significant side-effect in the MediaWiki technology that stated policy, but clearly exists and, based on outside news sources, is a perceived as a significant aspect of the Misplaced Pages project. If you are so very familiar with what courtesy blanking is and how it is currently practiced at Wikipeida, then please demonstrate your expertise by describing it on that page. Otherwise, please let me demonstrate my expertise in the matter. If you find the results strange then please consider the possibility that the reason is because you are more familiar with how the "undo" button works that with how courtesy blanking works within the project.--Mightyms 06:08, 1 October 2007 (UTC)

You state that "policies are not edited lightly". But you do not state what policy editing is. Do you know that policy editing is? Have you studied it? Can describe it? Should I assume that the reason why is because all you know is a few things that policy editing is not and have no idea what policy editing is? Again: you are not being helpful: as far as I can tell, you are just hitting the undo button because it is the dumb, easy thing to do. Here is a challenge for you: go find me three examples of courtesy blanking so that we can study such useful and rare examples of the phenomena. I have already given you some clues, which you reverted. Good luck.--Mightyms 06:43, 1 October 2007 (UTC)

Muk: Please consider plainly declaring yourself to be a deletionist on your userpage. Your contribs indicate that this is what you are. You have an innate drive to condemn the results of others that you allow to be expressed. Maybe it makes you feel superior. But, as far as I could see in my quick scan, you have done little to help make the existing body of policy clear, direct, plain, focused and accessible to existing users.--07:08, 1 October 2007 (UTC) —Preceding unsigned comment added by Mightyms (talk • contribs)

Muk: You never studied human perception in detail, have you? Go study the work ofElizabeth Loftus and then maybe listen to David Weinberger's Berkman talk, and then come back and tell me what you know. You write "Colleague, you are new to the project..." Do you not think that perhaps I know who I am? Remember: On the Internet, Nobody Knows You're a Dog. When you make such assertions, you should restrict yourself to what you know with a high degree of confidence and specificity. All you know at the moment is that the account I am using only started making edits a few days ago. I am not very interested in any iterative edit conflicts with you. My goal is to create new knowledge. It is very easy for you to just go hit the "undo" button and erase that knowledge.--Mightyms 07:25, 1 October 2007 (UTC)

If you object to the above message, please remove it, accept my apologies and notify me on my talk page.

Your edit to Vorarephilia

I've reverted your edit to Vorarephilia. You removed a ref claiming that the ref "does not introduce this term", but I'm not sure what you mean. The linked article does discuss vore in the section "You Look Tasty". Perhaps you just missed it? It's not a particularly large section, but given the small number of sources on the article, I'm loath to remove any of them without good reason. If you're disputing that the 'vore' that the article refers to isn't the same as the 'vorarephilia' that our encyclopedia article refers to, then I think you are mistaken. They are described as substantially similar, and the Straight Dope article specifically mentions 'vore' as a short form of 'vorarephilia'. If you feel that the article in The Wave Magazine shouldn't be used as a reference for our article, please bring it up on the article talk page so we can discuss it. Thanks. --Sopoforic 04:06, 13 October 2007 (UTC)

Vesica Piscis yonic interpretation

Hi Mukadderat, I've re-added the yonic interpretation to Vesica_piscis#Mystical_and_religious_significance, specifying it as a new age interpretation, together with the references from the talk page. As I understand matters, the yonic interpretation is a common new age interpretation (as attested by the number of references), but I don't know if there is any evidence for it as a traditional interpretation. I've tried to reflect this in the article; from the Talk:Vesica_piscis#Vulva_shape_and_symbolism, this topic has come up before, and you've been concerned about it, so I wanted to alert you and discuss it (User:Mikkalai also seems interested). Nbarth (talk) 00:53, 20 November 2007 (UTC)

(Re: your reply) Got it -- trust the references are sufficient. I came across it from math, specifically Lens (geometry), and recalled having heard of it in gender studies of art.

AIV reports

Thank you for making a report on Misplaced Pages:Administrator intervention against vandalism. Reporting and removing vandalism is vital to the functioning of Misplaced Pages and all users are encouraged to revert, warn, and report vandalism. However, administrators are generally only able to block users if they have received a recent final warning (one that mentions that the user may be blocked) and they have recently vandalized after that warning was given. The reported user has not yet been blocked because it appears this has not occurred yet. If this user continues to vandalize even after their final warning, please report them to the AIV noticeboard again. For more info, see Misplaced Pages:Guide to administrator intervention against vandalism. Thanks! GlassCobra 17:12, 19 December 2007 (UTC)

Kishlak

Hi, just wondering about this edit of yours in the Chon Tash article. From the article, a "kishlak" appears to be a winter pasture, but in the Chon Tash article your edit implies that it's synonymous with "village". Also, is the word "kishlak" actually Kyrgyz? I'm sure I'm missing something, but at first glance it doesn't seem to make sense to even mention the word in this article at all, let alone as a synonym with "village". Can you shed any light on this? - Hux (talk) 10:04, 14 February 2008 (UTC)

Hey, I saw what you wrote on the admin notice board. We can bring this up with WP:RFC I believe, but I'm not sure about the procedure exactly. Malamockq (talk) 21:39, 24 February 2008 (UTC)

Get back to me on this if you are interested. I have made a topic on Less's talk page which you can formally state your complaint to him. http://en.wikipedia.org/User_talk:LessHeard_vanU#Admin_recall

After that, we can take the case to RFC I believe. Malamockq (talk) 02:56, 25 February 2008 (UTC)

Biruitorul's RfA

"Just the same, from your retort I may conclude that he will abandon editing these articles with the special purpose to have his hands free to enforce prevalence of other Romanian editors by admin actions"

With all due respect, but from my words you can conclude only about me. I am not in association with him to win an adminship. In fact if you review a little, you will notice that I brought him only harm. Nominating him for admin was my ego, he could have lived very well, and perhaps much better, without my participation. Apparently I also caught him on the wrong foot, as he appears to have wanted to have a vacation away from WP (he speaks of mid-April?)

"he does not want to increase his vote count by stating that he will not intervene as admin there"

I don't get what you mean. But anyway, it doesn't matter.

"And Biruitorul (and their defendants) didn't make a single counter-offer towards a compromise in this aspect, which is also a bad sign."

Why should I make counter-offers. I am not running for anything. I only like throughing lines here and there to infatuate the spirits :)

But honestly, would you have changed your mind if Biruitorul would have "offered" something? Not withstanding that I would have considered it very imoral, and could very probably stop talking to him if he would have done that. that's called buying votes in my country. even if you take obligations you would do anyway. Dc76\ 00:27, 13 March 2008 (UTC)

"And in your pinkish Europe the revolutionary France forbids women to dress how they like."

That's the law: church and state are separated. We have to abide by the law, even when we don't like it. Law made Europe as it is. Without them, Africa would have done better today. (Of cause, this is again me throwing prvocative lines... :-) in case you missed the metaphor ) Dc76\ 00:45, 13 March 2008 (UTC)

"promise to not use his admin power in Romania-Moldova wikipedian wars if it will help to avoid possible tensions and accusations in taking sides"

Oh, that's what you mean! I thought you wanted him to promiss not to block Romanian POV-pushers. There is one guy, User:Bonaparte. He has a new sock every other day. Because of him, Mikkalai thinks of us all bad, even of such fine users ar Biruitorul. I asked Biruitorul that if he gets the adminship, the first priority to be stopping Bonaparte. And I asked him nothing more. So for him to promiss you that he wouldn't come cloase to Romania article would have been hypocrisy. As long as you don't prevent him acting against Bonaparte, I'm fine.

By buying votes I mean inventing new promisses in the middle of the campain. You have something to promiss, do it before people start critisizing you. At least, based on this principle, I vote. Dc76\ 01:03, 13 March 2008 (UTC)

"oh that's what you mean!" Yes, that's what I mean and that's what I mean: I strongly suspect that no one (including Biruitorul) really read carefully my proposal: "Biruitorul recuses from administrative actions against editors in good standing (Biruitorul's judgement on "who is who" suffices here) in areas of potential conflict with Biruitorul's convictions (Romania/Moldova/Transnistria/Hungary inter-ethnic, inter-state relations only)". This condition of changing my vote is the condition which alleviate my major objection: "insufficient demonstration of human communication skills". And the Mikka thing was just one example why I came to this conclusion: IMO Biruitorul handled it incorrectly. And by a coincidence I think Mikka's suggestion is good to compensate for this drawback: I think this drawback is less critical in areas which are not areas of conflict involving his convictions: it is a matter of general human psychology. And as a by-product I think it is a good general idea. So if I ever will aspire for adminship, this will be my promise: not to "govern" any areas where I have strong opinions (I don't know yet how to formulate this in a falsifiable manner). Like I already wrote, it is nothing but an extension of the rule that an admin cannot admin the page he edits. Mukadderat (talk) 01:22, 13 March 2008 (UTC)

I really hope Biruitorul sees this. I am afraid he misunderstood you as I did. Frankly I do read different things when I read your comments here and there. But forget it - it is important I understand you now.

About hijab in court, I don't think laws should regulate that, but if they do, we have to obey them. We can not choose to obey only certain laws, otherwise we go back to the stone age. So, either she takes it down, or she does not step inside the court (her laywer however can represent her, so there is no real hinder) It's her habit that prevents her from entering the court, not a third party's obsession. Note that I have nothing against her wearing it, on the contrary. Dc76\ 01:35, 13 March 2008 (UTC)

I don't think laws should regulate that" -- exactly. I don't think that the law should regulate that at all. I don't see fundamental difference between the law which enforces wearing hijab and the one which enforces not wearing hijab. But let us forget about this now: we will not solve the problems of the world in wikipedia: we can only describe them. Mukadderat (talk) 01:45, 13 March 2008 (UTC)

You are absolutely right. Dc76\ 21:05, 14 March 2008 (UTC)

Silantyev not Islamologist

The source doesnt say that Silantyev is an Islamologist. I assume that the term "Islamologist" means a scholar on Muslims and their related issues. I have never come across this term before. However, the source does say that he is just the executive secretary of the Inter-religious Council in Russia. I have not come across any fact saying that Silantyev is an Islamologist. I am going to undo the changes that you have made unless you give me a proper reference as to where in the SOURCE does it say that he is an Islamologist. Please reply back. JOYSON (talk)

rm'ed quote "Islamophobia"

I feel the Uri's quote is very relevant to the article. There's nothing arbitrary nor occasional about it. In fact, that point is raised constantly. Somebody already rv'ed your edit, so please refrain from taking it out again without making a case. Salam. Lixy (talk) 11:38, 8 April 2008 (UTC)

hello

Hello

You reverted one of my edits today:

• (02:48, 9 April 2008) (edit) (undo) Mukadderat (Talk | contribs) (rvv)

You are of course welcome to revert an edit you don't agree about... but I have to say I was surprised to see that you used an edit summary accusing me of vandalism: "rvv".

I explained my grounds for removing the external link in my edit summary (per WP:EL). The external link appears to be self-published, and it mentions the topic of the article only in passing, not in a substantive way.

If it's important to you that it stay in the article, I won't make a big deal about it, though I don't see why you'd find it important.

But whether or not you agree with one of my edits, I don't appreciate my good-faith work receiving an accusation of vandalism, so I thought I should post a note to let you know you misread the situation in this case.

Best wishes... --Jack-A-Roe (talk) 07:42, 9 April 2008 (UTC)

Criticism of Prem Rawat

I think you missed the discussion here: Jayen466 21:56, 11 April 2008 (UTC)

One revert per day

Articles in category:Prem Rawat are subject to community-enforced article probation restrictions for a period of three months, ending June 4 2008. Probation will be re-assessed at the end of that period, and extended if needed. Editors violating 1RR (one revert per editor per day), or that engage in disruptive editing may incur escalating blocks performed by uninvolved admins, or have other reasonable restrictions placed on them in relation to these topics. Editors must be individually notified of article probation before admin actions are undertaken. Violations, along with a link to this probation notice, should be posted to WP:AN/I, where uninvolved editors will make a determination. ·:· Will Beback ·:· 22:09, 11 April 2008 (UTC)

Thanks for the warning. Mukadderat (talk) 23:20, 11 April 2008 (UTC)

FYI, that's a standard notice posted on the talk page of every involved editor.

Like you, I have no special interest in Prem Rawat. However, disinterest doesn't give us special privileges. I know that uninvolved editors may wander into an article and say, "how come we're not calling a spafde a spade", or "why is there no mention of the elephant in the room?" Sometimes it's because a single editors has made havoc on NPOV, and sometimes it's because invovled editors have worked out, after lengthy debate, some formula that's minimally acceptable to them. Anyway, please self-revert your last addition of the material, as it's in violation of the special article probation and you may be blocked if you don't. ·:· Will Beback ·:· 23:33, 11 April 2008 (UTC)
