Calm calm....

Jeez! Please calm down! --Dwaipayan (talk) 20:20, 7 August 2013 (UTC)

It may be a full moon or perhaps some weird astrological alignment but I, too, have been struggling to keep a hat on things these last 24 hours. Go have a beer. - Sitush (talk) 20:30, 7 August 2013 (UTC)

Yes... beer is the best.--Dwaipayan (talk) 20:53, 7 August 2013 (UTC)

Well, my brother has just texted me to pass on news that he has just delivered his first grandchild, on the bathroom floor. Mother & baby well, so my brother has just proposed that we do some head-wetting. Typical British males: we're off out, folks :) - Sitush (talk)

Well done to your brother, I would have gotten sick, hope you guys had a good few pints. Darkness Shines (talk) 04:07, 8 August 2013 (UTC)

He reckons that years of tinkering about with our collection of British motorbikes helped. I don't care to imagine why! - Sitush (talk) 14:48, 8 August 2013 (UTC)

While British bikes are somewhat like a baby in that you gotta be very gentle or they fall apart on you, I honestly cannot figure how working on a machine can help you deliver a child? Darkness Shines (talk) 14:56, 8 August 2013 (UTC)

DYK nomination

Hi DS',
It's been quite some time since you approved the Louis N. Stodder DYK nomination and I was wondering what was going on. There were a couple of minor items that needed looking after, which I've dealt with, but that was some time ago. If you have the time could you give the nomination another look? -- Gwillhickers (talk) 15:35, 8 August 2013 (UTC)

Suggestions

We could opt for Chittagong Hill Tracts insurgency, instead of CHT conflict. And rename the other one to Persecution of indigenous people in the Chittagong Hill Tracts (this conflict affected only the CHT indigenous population, but not other indigenous communities in northwest and northeast BD). Please keep in mind that the CHT is a well-known and distinctive historical, cultural and ethnically unique region.--Bazaan (talk) 03:46, 10 August 2013 (UTC)

Not really, well not the persecution one as it can be expanded to include other indigenous groups. Darkness Shines (talk) 08:34, 10 August 2013 (UTC)

Other indigenous groups have never faced severe conflicts of this sort. When people talk of persecution and indigenous people conflicts in Bangladesh, it always refers to the CHT.--Bazaan (talk) 13:41, 10 August 2013 (UTC)

Citation needed. Darkness Shines (talk) 13:44, 10 August 2013 (UTC)

Why are you such a fucking pain, you won't let anyone cooperate on this article is it. You better come with citations that non-CHT indigenous communities also face persecution.--Bazaan (talk) 14:32, 10 August 2013 (UTC)

Ya, nothing worse than an asshole who follows policy is there. Darkness Shines (talk) 14:36, 10 August 2013 (UTC)

Disambiguation link notification for August 11

Hi. Thank you for your recent edits. Misplaced Pages appreciates your help. We noticed though that when you edited Genocide of indigenous peoples in Brazil, you added a link pointing to the disambiguation page Tupi (check to confirm | fix with Dab solver). Such links are almost always unintended, since a disambiguation page is merely a list of "Did you mean..." article titles. Read the FAQ • Join us at the DPL WikiProject.

Thank you ...

... for you welcome. I'm back, sort of---I think I'll be editing only sporadically. Fowler&fowler«Talk» 01:01, 12 August 2013 (UTC)

Your welcome, I suspect you have been sorely missed on certain articles. Darkness Shines (talk) 01:06, 12 August 2013 (UTC)

WTF?

WTF was this? You ought to get me to the need of expansion. I was waiting for you to copy-edit to avoid conflicts. You said that u were looking for sources, then is this: No improvements have been made since the suggestions by Drimes justified as a reason?Got no time for sources? At least give me a chance. Faizan 07:01, 12 August 2013 (UTC)

Sorry, but I do not have the time to search for sources, I am caught up on other stuff. Nominate it again once the extra work has been done. Darkness Shines (talk) 14:31, 12 August 2013 (UTC)

Not me

That is not me I have not hopped ips or reset my router for well over a month. 86.179.186.8 (talk) 13:13, 12 August 2013 (UTC)

I will give you the benefit of the doubt this time. Darkness Shines (talk) 14:24, 12 August 2013 (UTC)

Thanks

A beer for you! Thanks for your time and effort reviewing the Louis N. Stodder (and other) DYK nominations. -- Gwillhickers (talk) 17:49, 12 August 2013 (UTC)

Chuck Yeager

How come you are believing that it's a linkvio or copy of copyright material? You must care about changing the words, instead of cutting off the whole sourced text. OwnDealers (talk) 04:41, 13 August 2013 (UTC)

Read WP:LINKVIO Darkness Shines (talk) 04:58, 13 August 2013 (UTC)

Doesn't match any of your false allegation, nor the text is "copied" from the sources that has been mentioned. Explain your case in the talk page of Chuck Yeager instead, a talk is already opened. OwnDealers (talk) 05:00, 13 August 2013 (UTC)

Well Dur, I already responded there. I removed a linkvio, your reverted me, I removed it again and warned you, a few minutes ago you reverted it again, what more is there to say? Darkness Shines (talk) 05:02, 13 August 2013 (UTC)

In which sense it's a "linkvio"? Which source you are talking about, considering that you directly jumped to that page from the indo-pakistan war page, you removed the years old sourced material, and now you are failing to describe. OwnDealers (talk) 05:06, 13 August 2013 (UTC)

You are not reading the fucking policy at all are you? The reference used was a linkvio, it lead to a crappy website with copyrighted work on it. Not only was it a linkvio it was a BLP vio as the source was rubbish. Now go read the policies and leave me in peace. Darkness Shines (talk) 05:09, 13 August 2013 (UTC)

Findarticles, is commonly used in wikipedia pages, and the book of Stewart is not any "website", so what you are on to? Quit edit warring, just because you don't like the content. OwnDealers (talk) 05:14, 13 August 2013 (UTC)

WTF are you on about? I removed a fucking link which was used as a reference to a shitty website with copyrighted material on it, what part of that shit do you not fucking get? Darkness Shines (talk) 05:24, 13 August 2013 (UTC)

Clearly shows that you have some personal hatred, how come it included exact text from the site? There were 4 sources, which source you are hating on? OwnDealers (talk) 05:29, 13 August 2013 (UTC)

You can't tell the difference between a linkvio and a copyvio? Get the hell off my talk page and do not come back. Darkness Shines (talk) 05:56, 13 August 2013 (UTC)
