File permission problem with File:Noureddin Afi.jpg

Thanks for uploading File:Noureddin Afi.jpg. I noticed that while you provided a valid copyright licensing tag, there is no proof that the creator of the file has agreed to release it under the given license.

If you are the copyright holder for this media entirely yourself but have previously published it elsewhere (especially online), please either

• make a note permitting reuse under the CC-BY-SA or another acceptable free license (see this list) at the site of the original publication; or
• Send an email from an address associated with the original publication to permissions-en@wikimedia.org, stating your ownership of the material and your intention to publish it under a free license. You can find a sample permission letter here. If you take this step, add {{OTRS pending}} to the file description page to prevent premature deletion.

If you did not create it entirely yourself, please ask the person who created the file to take one of the two steps listed above, or if the owner of the file has already given their permission to you via email, please forward that email to permissions-en@wikimedia.org. you believe the media meets the criteria at Misplaced Pages:Non-free content, use a tag such as {{non-free fair use}} or one of the other tags listed at Misplaced Pages:File copyright tags#Fair use, and add a rationale justifying the file's use on the article or articles where it is included. See Misplaced Pages:File copyright tags for the full list of copyright tags that you can use.

If you have uploaded other files, consider checking that you have provided evidence that their copyright owners have agreed to license their works under the tags you supplied, too. You can find a list of files you have created in your upload log. Files lacking evidence of permission may be deleted one week after they have been tagged, as described on criteria for speedy deletion. You may wish to read the Misplaced Pages's image use policy. If you have any questions please ask them at the Media copyright questions page. Thank you. Peripitus (Talk) 08:41, 10 May 2014 (UTC)

Hadith of Persians and belief

Hi,

This deletion certainly occurred ages ago, so I admire you for even finding it! The article was deleted according to an AfD, the chief complaint against it being that it constituted "original research." I will restore the article and place it in your userspace at User:Mhhossein/Hadith of Persians and belief. This will allow you to salvage whatever content you think is useful. According to the content that is present in the article, this Hadith has no formal name. I would humbly suggest that you choose a name that sounds more natural in English, such as "Hadith regarding the Faith of the Persians." I have no idea whether such a name is supported in sources; I only know that the current title of the article sounds awkward in English, and that this poor title was cited in the AfD as among the reasons for deletion. Best wishes, Xoloz (talk) 20:34, 12 May 2014 (UTC)

Wikilinking

Hi, and thanks for your work on the English Misplaced Pages.

I noticed an article you worked on. Just a short note to point out that we don’t normally link:

• dates
• years
• commonly known geographical terms (including well-known country-names), and
• common terms you’d look up in a dictionary (unless significantly technical).

This applies to infoboxes, too.

Thanks, and my best wishes.

Thanks for reminding this point. I'll take this valuable point into account. Mhhossein (talk) 09:36, 13 May 2014 (UTC)

Non-free rationale for File:One woman's war.jpg

Thanks for uploading or contributing to File:One woman's war.jpg. I notice the file page specifies that the file is being used under non-free content criteria, but there is not a suitable explanation or rationale as to why each specific use in Misplaced Pages is acceptable. Please go to the file description page, and edit it to include a non-free rationale.

If you have uploaded other non-free media, consider checking that you have specified the non-free rationale on those pages too. You can find a list of 'file' pages you have edited by clicking on the "my contributions" link (it is located at the very top of any Misplaced Pages page when you are logged in), and then selecting "File" from the dropdown box. Note that any non-free media lacking such an explanation will be deleted one week after they have been tagged, as described on criteria for speedy deletion. If the file is already gone, you can still make a request for undeletion and ask for a chance to fix the problem. If you have any questions, please ask them at the Media copyright questions page. Thank you. Stefan2 (talk) 22:04, 31 May 2014 (UTC)

Noureddin, Son of Iran

Hi.. it is ok to use sources in Persian/Farsi. If you can find any Persian/Farsi sources with Google. The more sources the better chance it will Keep. We can read it with Google Translate. Thank you. -- GreenC 14:20, 3 June 2014 (UTC)

Thanks for your useful comment. I will take it into account. The article deserves to be a wikipedia article.Mhhossein (talk) 19:01, 3 June 2014 (UTC)

Disambiguation link notification for June 10

Hi. Thank you for your recent edits. Misplaced Pages appreciates your help. We noticed though that when you edited Hadith of Jesus Praying Behind Mahdi, you added links pointing to the disambiguation pages Musnad and Quraysh (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.

A barnstar for you!

	The Tireless Contributor Barnstar
	I think you deserve this barnstar for adding much needed information to the ISIS article, particularly the section on ideology and beliefs. Well done! P123ct1 (talk) 09:13, 7 July 2014 (UTC)

Ideology and beliefs (ISIS article)

I certainly agree that the new section should have greater prominence, but it could only be moved to a main heading near the beginning if it applied to all of ISIS's predecessor organisations (as listed in "Names & name changes"), because although the article calls itself "Islamic State in Iraq and the Levant", it is just as much about those organisations as it is about ISIS itself. If you feel confident that the "Ideology and beliefs" applies to all of them, I would go ahead and put it right near the beginning as a main section (although I guess some of the wording would have to be altered slightly). I am absolutely no expert on Middle East matters, so that would be for you to judge, but if you feel confident, why not do it and see? (I have chopped up and swapped around bits in this article and the al-Bagdhadi one mercilessly, and never had any complaints! Mind you I only did it when I felt on safe ground.) Even if people do object, at least it would get them thinking and realise how important the question of ideology and beliefs is in this case. To me the ideology is ultimately more important than the historical aspect, for it is that which drives events in all religious wars at all times in history. Personally I think this article is too history-biased as it stands now. If people object and say ideology and belief is for another article, I will support you; there should be at least some mention of it in an article like this. And, of course, now the caliphate has been established, this question of ideology becomes pre-eminently important. Be bold! --P123ct1 (talk) 14:30, 7 July 2014 (UTC)

DYK nomination of Al-Risalah al-Dhahabiah

Hello! Your submission of Al-Risalah al-Dhahabiah at the Did You Know nominations page has been reviewed, and some issues with it may need to be clarified. Please review the comment(s) underneath your nomination's entry and respond there as soon as possible. Thank you for contributing to Did You Know! BlueMoonset (talk) 02:44, 8 July 2014 (UTC)

Hey! The article is now edited and I've responded to the reviewer's comments. What should I do then? Mhhossein (talk) 04:53, 9 July 2014 (UTC)

ISIS revert

You mentioned me in your post on the Talk page as having reverted you. Please can you tell me what that was? I am not conscious of reverting anything. Was it the removal of "even"? The last thing I want to do is edit-war. I have restored your "even" to be on the safe side. I have not touched your new section on women. --P123ct1 (talk) 08:23, 10 July 2014 (UTC)

@Mhhossein: Of course I will support you in fighting back against all these reverts. You can report vandals/edit-wars at WP:Edit warring (see top of page), but I always find Misplaced Pages's Help sections mind-boggling complex, so perhaps it would be best to ask at the main Help desk at WP:HD how to go about it. Bad luck for getting hit by vandals, but good luck! Let me know what I can do to help. --P123ct1 (talk) 10:56, 10 July 2014 (UTC)

DYK for Al-Risalah al-Dhahabiah

On 10 July 2014, Did you know was updated with a fact from the article Al-Risalah al-Dhahabiah, which you recently created or substantially expanded. The fact was ... that the c. 8th-century medical text Al-Risalah al-Dhahabiah, attributed to Ali al-Ridha, is also known as the "Golden Treatise"? The nomination discussion and review may be seen at Template:Did you know nominations/Al-Risalah al-Dhahabiah. You are welcome to check how many page hits the article got while on the front page (here's how, live views, daily totals), and it may be added to the statistics page if the total is over 5,000. Finally, if you know of an interesting fact from another recently created article, then please feel free to suggest it on the Did you know talk page.

Copyright issue

I appreciate your attempt but the entire background section is still in violation. I've done it myself while adding info so I completely understand how hard it is. Fixing some of the wording is not sufficient. You plagiarized the structure as well. It needs to be removed and completely restructured or else you put Misplaced Pages in an inappropriate position. Furthermore, the piece used says a lot that could be disputed.Please remove/heavily edit it.

"Facts cannot be copyrighted. It is legal to read an encyclopedia article or other work, reformulate the concepts in your own words, and submit it to Misplaced Pages. But be careful not to closely paraphrase; the structure, presentation, and phrasing of the information should be your own original creation. The United States court of appeals noted in Feist Publications v. Rural Telephone Service that factual compilations of information may be protected with respect to "selection and arrangement, so long as they are made independently by the compiler and entail a minimal degree of creativity," as "he compilation author typically chooses which facts to include, in what order to place them, and how to arrange the collected data so that they may be used effectively by readers." You can use the facts, but unless they are presented without creativity (such as an alphabetical phone directory), you may need to reorganize as well as restate them to avoid substantial similarity infringement. It can be helpful in this respect to utilize multiple sources, which can provide a greater selection of facts from which to draw." - WP:COMPLIC (emphasis added)

Hey! Thanks for reminding this very important issue. The reported materials are rephrased a reworded-combination of wp:rss. The two sections (short-term and long-term) is my own invention and the structure is almost new. I already removed the mentioned parts. However, as you you are an IP, I can't discuss it with you in the article talk page. Mhhossein (talk) 06:40, 16 July 2014 (UTC)

Hey! Thanks for being a dick and adding a warning template on an IP talk page instead of fixing your fuck up. Your mindbogglingly idiotic idea that the background section should follow the one editorial you read instead of countless other sources is superb. Way to fuck up a massive section in a highly read article you fucking dolt.
