In regards to ], I have for the time being removed the 'controversy' section. There is no doubt that she made these claims, for they are sourced to her own political party website.

Bring it all to the talk page, and it can all be discussed there, and ] reached on how to introduce it into the article. As I mentioned on Colchicum's talk page, the claim that Basayev was a democrat is highly inflammatory given his history, and needs to be laid out in the article.

This is NPOV, because she did in fact say these things, and it doesn't prove her as being a nutter, or whatever. It is our job at WP editors to simply present what other sources state, and then let readers make up their own minds. And look, I agree with you, a lot of other articles are '''not''' NPOV, but getting into an edit war, particularly when it is evident that others object to the facts being inserted, is not the way to go.

{{unblock reviewed|1=My block is a result of a ridiculous interpretation of pretty obvious things by the admin who is likely to be biased against me (William M. Connolley: e.g., in reply to my obserbation he erases it and says ‘are you my pal?’ ). The whole story is as follows: User Biophys is obsessed by the idea of suspecting all of his wikipedia opponents of being members of secret brigades associated with Russian security services (KGB, FSB, whatever). He has been warned many times by other editors and even WP arbitrators about inappropriateness of such a behavior (see, e.g.). Today, in his failed attempt to block-shop user Offliner (whom I don’t know), Biophys once again called me a member of a ‘tag team’: (similar inappropriate claim was made by Grey Fox-9589 earlier), which is a clear another attack on me. Since he was definitely lying, in my reply I just presented facts, nothing more: “Biophys, I tell you straight into your eyes: YOU ARE A LIAR. I don't belong to any "tag team". I'm waiting for your apologies right now.” He didn’t reply and that is all. What do we have in the end? The regular offenders go unpunished. I, who tried to defend myself against the attack, am blocked.

{{unblock reviewed|1=The block is unfair. Ridiculous, I was blocked for a single explained edit! If you take a closer look at the discussion page, section Related events, you can see that I, Illytr and Offliner came to the same conclusion: this piece doesn’t belong to article’s narration and should go to section/article FSB involvement theories.

Valeriya Novodvorskaya

In regards to Valeriya Novodvorskaya, I have for the time being removed the 'controversy' section. There is no doubt that she made these claims, for they are sourced to her own political party website. However, the key to presenting information is to do so in a NPOV way, so I am suggesting that instead of inserting and reverting, etc that it be discussed on the talk page on how to present information in the article. --Russavia 15:24, 9 November 2008 (UTC)

Whilst she did make the claims, as I have explained on the other users who have reverted (Biophys/Colchicum), they need to be provided in context, and in an NPOV way. Also do you have any other sources for information which can be used on the article? Bring it all to the talk page, and it can all be discussed there, and WP:CONSENSUS reached on how to introduce it into the article. As I mentioned on Colchicum's talk page, the claim that Basayev was a democrat is highly inflammatory given his history, and needs to be laid out in the article. So come to the talk page, and we can all discuss it in a civil manner and agree on how to introduce said info into the article. Don't worry, the info is still in the history so we still have access to it, but WP:NPOV is something that we need to attain. Agreed? --Russavia 15:36, 9 November 2008 (UTC)
Section Controversies by definition implies some criticism. See, Gryzlov, Zhirinovsky, etc. I see no need to "balance" it. Beatle Fab Four (talk) 15:42, 9 November 2008 (UTC)
The fact that other articles may be unbalanced, well let's not worry about that for the time being. Let us concentrate on this article for now, and then other articles can be looked at later. Don't allow the state that other articles are in to affect how this article is approached. Go to the article talk page, and discuss it. We aren't a battleground, so simply point out what information should be included, and how you would word it; try to do so in a NPOV way, and then it can be discussed, tweaked, and then inserted into the article. OK on that? --Russavia 15:49, 9 November 2008 (UTC)
No one is obliged to write the whole article, to balance it, etc. One CAN add relevant information in any article. This is the basic principle of WP. The section Controversies as it is now is ok as these are her quotes, sources are reliable. As I have shown this is not a mockery. You, Biophys, whoever, may add additional information, improve the article and so on. What's the problem? Beatle Fab Four (talk) 15:57, 9 November 2008 (UTC)
Instead of simply placing a 'bullet' list of things she has said (I for one, and many others, don't like lists of such things) write it in WP:PROSE. For example, instead of simply saying she said Basayev was a democrat, write in such a way, for example, in an interview with Echo Moskvy on (date) she made a statement that Basayev was a democrat because (paraphrase her reason), and further claimed that it was Putin who turned Basayev into a terrorist. This is NPOV, because she did in fact say these things, and it doesn't prove her as being a nutter, or whatever. It is our job at WP editors to simply present what other sources state, and then let readers make up their own minds. And look, I agree with you, a lot of other articles are not NPOV, but getting into an edit war, particularly when it is evident that others object to the facts being inserted, is not the way to go. And I do agree with you, in that the information needs to be presented, but it needs to be done in such a way that abides by WP:NPOV. Colchicum has already agreed that this can be discussed on the talk page. If you agree also, and start discussing, it is better for the project as a whole. Do you understand what I am saying? I sincerely hope you will take this to the talk page. --Russavia 16:08, 9 November 2008 (UTC)
I'm curious how would you balance her claim "Апартеид - нормальная вещь". See also VN article in Russian (Section Критика). It is pretty the same as it was in English WP. What you're doing now is just deleting referenced material from the article. Beatle Fab Four (talk) 16:42, 9 November 2008 (UTC)

Civility block

I've blocked you for 24h for incivility at WP:AN3 such as . Don't do it. In point of fact, comments by other users are not helpful there, and continuing the argument there is definitely wrong William M. Connolley (talk) 21:28, 9 February 2009 (UTC)

Request reason:

My block is a result of a ridiculous interpretation of pretty obvious things by the admin who is likely to be biased against me (William M. Connolley: e.g., in reply to my obserbation he erases it and says ‘are you my pal?’ ). The whole story is as follows: User Biophys is obsessed by the idea of suspecting all of his wikipedia opponents of being members of secret brigades associated with Russian security services (KGB, FSB, whatever). He has been warned many times by other editors and even WP arbitrators about inappropriateness of such a behavior (see, e.g.). Today, in his failed attempt to block-shop user Offliner (whom I don’t know), Biophys once again called me a member of a ‘tag team’: (similar inappropriate claim was made by Grey Fox-9589 earlier), which is a clear another attack on me. Since he was definitely lying, in my reply I just presented facts, nothing more: “Biophys, I tell you straight into your eyes: YOU ARE A LIAR. I don't belong to any "tag team". I'm waiting for your apologies right now.” He didn’t reply and that is all. What do we have in the end? The regular offenders go unpunished. I, who tried to defend myself against the attack, am blocked. Though my response was emotional, I strongly believe that the admin’s decision is very unfair, and that I do not deserve this block.

Decline reason:

Wow, that would make a nice aria if you translated it into Italian and set it to music. But this is Misplaced Pages, not the opera house, and WP:NOTTHEM applies. — Daniel Case (talk) 03:54, 10 February 2009 (UTC)

Ice Hockey World Championships

Will you be interested to join the discussion on topic of Ice Hockey World Championships and whether medal count for Russia/USSR and Czech Republic/Czechoslovakia should be grouped together. The evidence I've provided from a reliable source in support of this argument is being rejected and there is seems to be a questionNeutral point of view. Please join in.

Blocked

Despite warnings on both the Russian apartment bombings page and its talk page, you have continued the edit war regarding the section. You have been blocked for 31 hours. When the block expires, please discuss this removal on the talk page. Nakon 21:35, 23 May 2009 (UTC)

Request reason:

The block is unfair. Ridiculous, I was blocked for a single explained edit! If you take a closer look at the discussion page, section Related events, you can see that I, Illytr and Offliner came to the same conclusion: this piece doesn’t belong to article’s narration and should go to section/article FSB involvement theories. And if you take a closer look at the article history you can see that it is Biophys, who started edit war (without any explanations) right after the article being unprotected. As to Nakon’s note , I’m sorry I didn’t read it before I made my edit. I apologize for this, and I can undo my edit. But, frankly, while arguments of one side are clearly stated, we see only reverts and little response on talk from the other side.

Decline reason:

Clear incivility. No valid unblock reason given. OhNoitsJamie 15:36, 24 May 2009 (UTC)

I have reported you to WP:AE. See WP:AE#Beatle Fab Four. Colchicum (talk) 19:04, 20 June 2009 (UTC)

Restriction

For the reasons given in the AE thread listed above (permalink) you have been topic banned from all Eastern European related articles for a period of six months. Shell 01:46, 21 June 2009 (UTC)

Appeal?

You might try to appeal against your sanction. Recently, other peoples' sanctions have been lifted because there was no prior formal warning given. I don't think you have received one either, so maybe you should appeal? Offliner (talk) 10:01, 7 July 2009 (UTC)

Asian 10,000 Challenge invite

Hi. The Misplaced Pages:WikiProject Asia/The 10,000 Challenge has recently started, based on the UK/Ireland Misplaced Pages:The 10,000 Challenge and Misplaced Pages:WikiProject Africa/The 10,000 Challenge. The idea is not to record every minor edit, but to create a momentum to motivate editors to produce good content improvements and creations and inspire people to work on more countries than they might otherwise work on. There's also the possibility of establishing smaller country or regional challenges for places like South East Asia, Japan/China or India etc, much like Misplaced Pages:The 1000 Challenge (Nordic). For this to really work we need diversity and exciting content and editors from a broad range of countries regularly contributing. At some stage we hope to run some contests to benefit Asian content, a destubathon perhaps, aimed at reducing the stub count would be a good place to start, based on the current Misplaced Pages:WikiProject Africa/The Africa Destubathon which has produced near 200 articles in just three days. If you would like to see this happening for Asia, and see potential in this attracting more interest and editors for the country/countries you work on please sign up and being contributing to the challenge! This is a way we can target every country of Asia, and steadily vastly improve the encyclopedia. We need numbers to make this work so consider signing up as a participant! Thank you. --Ser Amantio di NicolaoLo dicono a Signa. 01:18, 20 October 2016 (UTC)

Europe 10,000 Challenge invite

Hi. The Misplaced Pages:WikiProject Europe/The 10,000 Challenge has recently started, based on the UK/Ireland Misplaced Pages:The 10,000 Challenge. The idea is not to record every minor edit, but to create a momentum to motivate editors to produce good content improvements and creations and inspire people to work on more countries than they might otherwise work on. There's also the possibility of establishing smaller country or regional challenges for places like Germany, Italy, the Benelux countries, Iberian Peninsula, Romania, Slovenia etc, much like Misplaced Pages:The 1000 Challenge (Nordic). For this to really work we need diversity and exciting content and editors from a broad range of countries regularly contributing. If you would like to see masses of articles being improved for Europe and your specialist country like Misplaced Pages:WikiProject Africa/The Africa Destubathon, sign up today and once the challenge starts a contest can be organized. This is a way we can target every country of Europe, and steadily vastly improve the encyclopedia. We need numbers to make this work so consider signing up as a participant and also sign under any country sub challenge on the page that you might contribute to! Thank you. --Ser Amantio di NicolaoLo dicono a Signa. 02:28, 6 November 2016 (UTC)
