Assyrian vandalism

Hello,

I don't know anything about Misplaced Pages and adding sources, but as the original inhabitants of Gungoren we have always identified ourselves as Arameans. Our DNA results confirm our Levantine roots. The village was built by us after it was completely abandoned in the Middle Ages. We as inhabitants of Gungoren are the only people who have a claim to this and we are not obliged to identify ourselves on Misplaced Pages as Assyrians. Therefore, please stop undoing our changes. Users like Mugsaloten Surayeproject3 have made it their mission to spread false information and silence Arameans. No matter how much evidence and DNA results we provide, they undo everything. Outside of Misplaced Pages, Tur-Abdin is labeled as Aramaic everywhere because they do not have access to it. Because Misplaced Pages is accessible for changes, this is the only platform they can abuse and that is what they do.

Please my request not to undo our changes.

Thanks

Reviewing and AFC

Hi Raydann. I am sorry that I need to raise this, but in looking into the edits of a number of editors, I noticed a strange pattern in regard to their articles. These editors are User:Stromeee, User:ScrodiTY and User:Griffith Vosaam. Do you have any connection to these three editors? (I do not want you to reveal any personal information, but the situation seems very unusual, so I am just asking if there is some sort of connection, not its nature). - Bilby (talk) 08:54, 31 December 2024 (UTC)

Hi there! Thank you for notifying me about this. These three editors are familiar. I've noticed their articles in the NPP and AfC venues. I too thought there was something off about them. To answer your question: No, I don't have any connection to these editors. What's going on? ❯❯❯ Raydann 16:48, 31 December 2024 (UTC)

All three ended up being socks of the same paid editor. I was hoping that there was a simple explanation as to what your connection with them was. Unfortunately, I am going to need to remove the new page reviewer and extended page mover flags from your account, as I cannot see an explantion for your page reviews and AFC acceptances in regard to them other than a connection with these paid accounts. - Bilby (talk) 01:53, 1 January 2025 (UTC)
