Disambiguation link notification for January 6

Hi. Thank you for your recent edits. Misplaced Pages appreciates your help. We noticed though that you've added some links pointing to disambiguation pages. 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.

List of most popular given names

Kazakhstan straddles Europe and Asia and could be listed under either continent. In addition, when you reverted my edit, you also deleted the list of names given to girls in Azerbaijan in 2014. You had listed the names given to boys in that year but had not changed the listing for girls. I provide links to the most complete articles on a particular topic, which is Mary for Maryam. Google translate gave Melek as the translation for the name, which has the main article at Malak. In English, it seems like the name can appear with both spellings. --Bookworm857158367 (talk) 14:36, 6 January 2015 (UTC)

Once again, Kazakhstan is located in both Asia and in Europe and could be listed in either. The main articles for Joseph variants like Yusif is at Joseph. The main article for the name Ali is at Ali (name) rather than Ali, which redirects to an article about Ali ibn Abi Talib. You continue to revert to your preferred additions without further discussion and without looking at what erroneous articles you are linking to. --Bookworm857158367 (talk) 02:54, 10 January 2015 (UTC)

In the edits you made, you linked directly back to articles about individual people. Ali is directed to an article about Ali ibn Abi Talib, for instance. The link Yusif takes people back to an article about Joseph in Islam. I wrote a fair number of the name articles that I link back to in those articles. When it was a foreign name with no English equivalent, I started a new article for that name. When it was a name that had an English equivalent, I linked back to the English name and added information about the various foreign variants. It avoided too many name articles about names that all have the same origin. That seemed to be the usual practice with the name articles. I put Kazakhstan in alphabetical order under Asia. You had inserted it out of order. It can go in either Europe or Asia. The former USSR straddles both continents. I think I had originally placed it under Europe for that reason and because it seemed to lean more towards the West politically. If you're going to make further edits, please check to make sure the article you're linking to is actually an article about names and not a person. You can also add more information to the English language article about Joseph, Mary, etc., which I think would be preferable. --Bookworm857158367 (talk) 16:05, 10 January 2015 (UTC)

Translation help

Hi Parishan, Sorry to bother you, but I stumbled upon you after a recent edit at Armenia–Azerbaijan relations in the Eurovision Song Contest. I see that you speak Azerbaijani and English. I have been struggling for quite some time now to find help in translating Sərbəst eniş (film, 2013) a featured article at Azerbaijan Misplaced Pages, into English so that I may bring the English article Free Fall (2013 film) also up to FA standards. If you are extremely busy, but would it be possible to provide some assistance with the translation and improvements to the article? I look forward to your correspondence in due course. Kindest regards, Wes Mouse |  03:16, 8 January 2015 (UTC)

User:Harut111 (Talk) is unilaterally renaming Azerbaijani settlements, and adding "Nagorno-Karabakh Republic" or its prefix "NKR" beaside them, without any discussion and agreement.

User:Harut111 (Talk) is unilaterally renaming Azerbaijani settlements, and adding "Nagorno-Karabakh Republic" or its prefix "NKR" beside them, without any discussion and agreement. And has often erased any reference to Azerbaijan alltogether in these articles. Could you check this user and revert them? Thank you. — Preceding unsigned comment added by 31.200.11.186 (talk) 22:12, 17 January 2015 (UTC)

Shushi

I'm asking you to stop your censorship campaign for the word Shushi. The historical spelling is the correct usage for articles about Armenians and Armenia, similar to how World War I is correct for American articles and First World War is correct for British articles. This is also the same rule used for Israeli/Palestinian articles, for example Miriam Mehadipur uses Tzfat instead of Safed. --Steverci (talk) 02:48, 10 February 2015 (UTC)

How is what i did edit warring? There is a discussion currently going on in the talk page so i reverted to what the default edit was, which did not include History of Azerbaijan. A random azeri comes and adds History of Azerbaijan so i reverted it and told him there is currently a discussion taking place. Ninetoyadome (talk) 16:34, 20 March 2015 (UTC)

Notice that you are now subject to an arbitration enforcement sanction

The following sanction now applies to you:

You are banned from the article Caucasian Albania and its Talk page for one week.

You have been sanctioned due to edit warring, baiting, and failing to cite reliable sources to support your argument at Caucasian Albania and its Talk page. Please review all the comments at the WP:AE discussion here.

This sanction is imposed in my capacity as an uninvolved administrator under the authority of the Arbitration Committee's decision at Misplaced Pages:Requests for arbitration/Armenia-Azerbaijan 2#Final decision and, if applicable, the procedure described at Misplaced Pages:Arbitration Committee/Discretionary sanctions. This sanction has been recorded in the log of sanctions. If the sanction includes a ban, please read the banning policy to ensure you understand what this means. If you do not comply with this sanction, you may be blocked for an extended period, by way of enforcement of this sanction—and you may also be made subject to further sanctions.

You may appeal this sanction using the process described here. I recommend that you use the arbitration enforcement appeals template if you wish to submit an appeal to the arbitration enforcement noticeboard. You may also appeal directly to me (on my talk page), before or instead of appealing to the noticeboard. Even if you appeal this sanction, you remain bound by it until you are notified by an uninvolved administrator that the appeal has been successful. You are also free to contact me on my talk page if anything of the above is unclear to you. Zad68 21:03, 13 April 2015 (UTC)

Recent Changes

Dear Parishan, Its nice to see some active AzWikipedia users, I believe we are on same boat especially when it comes to correct usage of N/K. I have already managed to change this in Henrikh Mkhitaryan article and managed to bring this point up from the earlier Arbcom committees regarding Azerbaijan and Armenia. Also i added sources that Papakha is actually of Turkic Azeri origin. This is just to update you that Arbcom does stand on neutral use of N/K instead of "arstakh" and in future it can be referenced to that same decision. For more info check the talk page of article hope we can communicate more effectively and stop Misplaced Pages from hitting the bottom. Agulani (talk) 08:57, 26 April 2015 (UTC)

Your AE appeal may be closing soon

Please see Misplaced Pages:Arbitration/Requests/Enforcement#Arbitration enforcement action appeal by Parishan. Your appeal got archived by the bot without formal closure. I'm hoping to close this soon. Most likely it will be closed as moot, but you can add more comments if you wish. Thank you, EdJohnston (talk) 15:24, 2 May 2015 (UTC)

Please stop your disruptive editing. If you continue to vandalize Misplaced Pages, as you did at Qazax, you may be blocked from editing. Ezaid Fabber (talk) 16:48, 14 October 2015 (UTC)

Re-Your reverts

For once and all I would like to let you know that you are continuously involved in obvious vandalism. Please refrain from doing so and what ever you edit, it must be properly cited. You can not just paste some print outs as a source to prove your claim. What you are doing is edit war and remember that Misplaced Pages is not a battleground. Please stop vandalism. Regards Ezaid Fabber (talk) 17:00, 14 October 2015 (UTC)

Please behave like a mature editor and remember Misplaced Pages articles should be based on reliable, published sources. You do not seem to have much knowledge on the subject so please read the guidelines again and stop what you are doing otherwise you will may lose your editing privileges. Ezaid Fabber (talk) 17:16, 14 October 2015 (UTC)

Misplaced Pages itself is not a reliable source. Please read Misplaced Pages:Identifying reliable sources.The word "source" when citing sources on Misplaced Pages has three related meanings:

• The piece of work itself (the article, book)
• The creator of the work (the writer, journalist)
• The publisher of the work (for example, Random House or Cambridge University Press). Please understand the basic rules for citations. Ezaid Fabber (talk) 17:31, 14 October 2015 (UTC)

We have enough of the discussion. Misplaced Pages guidelines are very clear even then if you want to add it as a source, you can do this on your own but once again read reliable, published sources. Ezaid Fabber (talk) 17:40, 14 October 2015 (UTC)

When ever you are saying something, please provide the exact rule as I have provided you above. Merely providing a print out which has no mentioning of the government source can not be considered as a reliable source. Why don't you understand this basic issue? Ezaid Fabber (talk) 17:51, 14 October 2015 (UTC)

Again you do not seem to understand the issue and just quoting my conversations to me which has amused me a lot. Here we are not talking about a government source but merely a print out. You got to come out with a reliable source my dear friend. Ezaid Fabber (talk) 17:58, 14 October 2015 (UTC)

You have really started amusing me me a lot. Please understand the difference between a reliable source and web archiving. At times it is a source but a mere print out can't be. Why don't you just read the guide lines? Ezaid Fabber (talk) 19:04, 14 October 2015 (UTC)

Look Parishan! You really don't have any idea about citing sources and you are just beating about the bush. Web archiving is not always a reliable source and you can't use it in most of the cases. Once again I am telling you to read guide lines for citing sources otherwise I am up all night to educate you my friend. Ezaid Fabber (talk) 19:13, 14 October 2015 (UTC)

For once again I am telling you to understand the basic guide lines for citing sources without adopting a sanctimonious attitude. Secondly, getting angry will never help you in establishing the facts and you have to calm down. I am here to educate you on the subject provided the fact you want to learn. Ezaid Fabber (talk) 19:27, 14 October 2015 (UTC)

Listen Parishan you appear frustrated despite knowing fully well that I am respectful with you and I never said that web archiving is not allowed. But you seem so desperate to prove your point that you even forgot to sign you name. Anyway, please do not get angry and remember the most common web archiving technique uses web crawlers to automate the process of collecting web pages. Web crawlers typically access web pages in the same manner that users with a browser see the Web, and therefore provide a comparatively simple method of remote harvesting web content. Examples of web crawlers used for web archiving include:

• Heritrix
• HTTrack
• Wget

I hope you understand now and still you want to know something, please feel free to ask. Ezaid Fabber (talk) 19:38, 14 October 2015 (UTC)

Now you seem to have started educating yourself on the subject and I am glad that you have got the point. If you read my previous comments, you would get the answer of your question and if still there is a query, I am just a post away. Ezaid Fabber (talk) 19:45, 14 October 2015 (UTC)

How many times I am supposed to tell you my dear friend? I am telling you again some limitations that not only must web archivists deal with the technical challenges of web archiving, they must also contend with intellectual property laws. Although the Web is popularly regarded as a public domain resource, it is copyrighted; thus, archivists have no legal right to copy the Web. However national libraries in some countries may have a legal right to copy portions of the web under an extension of a legal deposit. Ezaid Fabber (talk) 19:53, 14 October 2015 (UTC)

Parishan! This is the reason why I kept telling you that you must get yourself familiarized with the basic guide lines as Misplaced Pages does not work as per your wishes. But I am glad that you have started exhibiting some rational approach at least. Don't worry, i am always available to educate you.Ezaid Fabber (talk) 20:03, 14 October 2015 (UTC)

Again you have asked the same question. You must understand that web archives which rely on web crawling as their primary means of collecting the Web are influenced by the difficulties of web crawling:

• The robots exclusion protocol may request crawlers not access portions of a website. Some web archivists may ignore the request and crawl those portions anyway.
• Large portions of a web site may be hidden in the Deep Web. For example, the results page behind a web form lies in the Deep Web because most crawlers cannot follow a link to the results page.
• Crawler traps (e.g., calendars) may cause a crawler to download an infinite number of pages, so crawlers are usually configured to limit the number of dynamic pages they crawl.

So you have to be sure before using it as a source.Ezaid Fabber (talk) 20:10, 14 October 2015 (UTC)

You appear to be ignorant about it. The /WEB-INF directory in the WAR file contains a file named web.xml which defines the structure of the web application. If the web application is only serving JSP files, the web.xml file is not strictly necessary. If the web application uses servlets, then the servlet container uses web.xml to ascertain to which servlet a URL request will be routed. Web archivists typically employ web crawlers for automated capture due to the massive size and amount of information on the Web. The largest web archiving organization based on a bulk crawling approach is the Internet Archive which strives to maintain an archive of the entire Web. so you need to understand it.Ezaid Fabber (talk) 20:20, 14 October 2015 (UTC)

You sound angry again. Please calm down as Misplaced Pages does not work as per you wishes. There is an exemption for reverting vandalism, but please bear in mind that "vandalism" means editing which is deliberately intended to be harmful, and editing which is done in good faith is not vandalism. The exemption for reverting vandalism does not apply to reverting edits which one personally thinks is wrong, if the editor responsible for those edits believed they were constructive and in my case, I have justified the claim. You must understand what does it mean by reliable source. Ezaid Fabber (talk) 20:34, 14 October 2015 (UTC)

The Supposed Infallibility of The Cambridge History of Iran

FYI, that editor seems to hold The Cambridge History of Iran as an infallible fount of wisdom and has peppered Persia-related articles with horrible prose that he tolerates no ownership of pointing to this tome. I've been in the process of re-assessing my thoughts on the matter and maybe taking another shot at a few rewrites and talk pages before going to an ANI or something. But the sentence you mention is not nearly as poor syntactically as "In the North Caucasus and South Caucasus, the Qajar dynasty eventually permanently lost many of Iran's integral areas, which had made part of the concept of Iran for centuries, to the Russians in the course of the 19th century, comprising modern-day Georgia, Dagestan, Azerbaijan, and Armenia." found, word-for-word, on numerous pages. If you have any success, please let me know. If not, at least be fore-warned this similar request of yours will be an uphill battle with that WP:OWN-inclined editor.

Nagorno-Karabakh casualties

I counted the guy who died in November 2016 that you are talking about and I mentioned him in my edit summary. Please read my edit summary again - Per cited sources: 78 troops KIA (1 was MIA before body recovered), 11 troops non-hostile deaths, 2 troops WIA and later died of wounds (April 21st & Nov. 29th)....that's 91.

Request

Hello.

The List of People's Artists of Azerbaijan is incomplete. Could you add the people missing in the list, from the complete Azerbaijani az:Azərbaycan SSR xalq artistlərinin siyahısı and Russian ru:Список народных артистов Азербайджанской ССР versions? The 1970s and 1980s and the year 1990 are still empty.

Thank you.

Azeri adlandırması

Selam. Bu konudaki görüşünüzü hâlâ koruyor musunuz?

Bakın 21. yüzyılda yayınlanan kitaplarla ilgili Google books'taki arama sonuçlarını incelediğimiz zaman;

• Azeri: 5 sonuç,
• Azerbaijani: 127,000 sonuç veriyor.

Bunu yeniden düşünüp yorum yapabilir misiniz? İyi günler. --Esc2003 (talk) 18:04, 22 June 2019 (UTC)

Hello. That is not the same thing. "Azerbaijani" is a more logical adjective when used in the sens "pertaining to Azerbaijan", which explains the higher number of results. And again: a more popular Google result does not license going around Misplaced Pages changing a perfectly attested word. Parishan (talk) 20:28, 22 June 2019 (UTC)

Bence aynı şey. Azeri adı da "Azerbaycan'a dair" anlamında kullanılıyor bu dilde. Bir de şu çok önemli İngilizcede Romanlar kendilerine Çingene denilmesini istemez, bir İskandinavya halkı olan Samiler de aynı şekilde kendilerine Lapon denilmesinden hoşlanmaz. Ulus adları ya etnik gruptan ya da yaşanılan arazinin adından hareketle alınır. Bu Türk kökenli halk da adını yaşadığı topraktan alıyor. Azeri adı doğru varsayılan yanlış olarak kullanılmaya devam edilebilir; ancak "Azerbaijani" adına öncelik tanımak doğru olacaktır. Madde ve kategori adlarında zaten öyle yapıldı. --Esc2003 (talk) 22:38, 23 June 2019 (UTC)

I still do not see why a term which is only relatively minor in usage should be written off Misplaced Pages so rigorously. Parishan (talk) 23:03, 23 June 2019 (UTC)

"Azeri"ye oranla daha az kullanılan bir ad olmadığını ikimiz de biliyoruz. Aksini iddia ediyorsanız kaynak göstererek bunu kanıtlayın zahmet olmazsa. Kolay gelsin. --Esc2003 (talk) 08:03, 24 June 2019 (UTC)

• Bir de bu şekilde arattığımızda yine Azerbaijani önde (burada zamanı 21. yüzyılla sınırlamadım. Çünkü Azeri hiç yokken Azerbaijani 1 tane çıkıyor);

  Ethnic Azeri people: 6 sonuç

  Ethnic Azerbaijani people: 175 sonuç

Esc2003 (talk) 08:52, 24 June 2019 (UTC)

I am sorry, but I will have to repeat myself: I still do not see why a term which is only relatively minor in usage should be written off Misplaced Pages so rigorously. If we were talking about an article title, I might agree with you per WP:UCRN. However, there is no rule on Misplaced Pages that says that alternative names should be banned from article bodies. This is why at one point, it starts to look very much like POV-pushing when someone makes an effort to enrich an article and then you show up and sweep through it only to replace "Azeri" with "Azerbaijani". Parishan (talk) 11:58, 24 June 2019 (UTC)

Also, "ethnic Azeri/Azerbaijani people" is an unlikely combination in English: try searching for "ethnic Azeris" and you will end up with more significant results. Parishan (talk) 12:04, 24 June 2019 (UTC)

O adın kaldırılmasına yönelik bir şey söylediğimi hatırlamıyorum. Başlıklar Azerbaijani adıyla olmasına rağmen madde içeriğinin neredeyse bütününün Azeri adıyla dolu olmasınaydı benim itirazım. WP:UCRN politikasını kabul ettiğinize göre Azerbaijani'nin yaygın kullanıma sahip olduğunu da kabul ediyorsunuz. --Esc2003 (talk) 19:07, 24 June 2019 (UTC)

I can understand when both terms are used interchangeably but you come in and change every (and I repeat: every) single instance of the word "Azeri" in an article, like you did here and here, that constitutes POV editing. WP:UCRN applies only to article titles, not to article content. There is nothing under WP:UCRN that says that alternative names should be eradicated from Misplaced Pages.

Speedy deletion nomination of Category:Danish people of Azerbaijani descent

A tag has been placed on Category:Danish people of Azerbaijani descent requesting that it be speedily deleted from Misplaced Pages. This has been done under section C1 of the criteria for speedy deletion, because the category has been empty for seven days or more and is not a disambiguation category, a category redirect, a featured topics category, under discussion at Categories for discussion, or a project category that by its nature may become empty on occasion.

If you think this page should not be deleted for this reason, you may contest the nomination by visiting the page and clicking the button labelled "Contest this speedy deletion". This will give you the opportunity to explain why you believe the page should not be deleted. However, be aware that once a page is tagged for speedy deletion, it may be deleted without delay. Please do not remove the speedy deletion tag from the page yourself, but do not hesitate to add information in line with Misplaced Pages's policies and guidelines. Liz 16:07, 19 October 2020 (UTC)

Qazax quotes

Hello there. I have seen that you are dissatisfied w/ earlier edits on Qazax by me and a user by the IP address of 80.121.97.28 (who was apparently banned for insulting you, for which I am sorry that this happened to you). Firstly, the statement that Qazax was historically contested between the Arm. and Az SSRs is taken from a line in the Nakhchivan Aut. Rep. article, but I personally can't find the exact quote. Therefore, I have another source that is also used on the Nakhchivan article stating that the area was, in fact, contested: http://www.conflicts.rem33.com/images/Armenia/disp.htm. Next, I see you want to know something abt/ a quote stating something along the lines of "At the cusp of the prelude to the prelude of the Armenian Genocide", and I believe I took the translation from the Misplaced Pages article in another language. This version by user CuriousGolden, https://en.wikipedia.org/search/?title=Qazax&oldid=1013835983, has the original quote in it. Lastly, why did you delete my sourced mention of the Armenian name "Koght"? I frankly can't help but feel this is cultural erasure. I hope that this helps and that we can re-introduce sourced and verified information on that and other pages so that the multicultural nature of the South Caucasus is accurately reflected on Misplaced Pages. Thank you for your patience BaxçeyêReş (talk) 13:49, 29 April 2021 (UTC)

Hello again. I found the following quote from "Ա-Դօ, Հայ-թուրքական ընդհարումները Կովկասում (1905-1906 թ.), Երևան, 1907, էջ 360": "1905-1906 թթ. հայ-թուրքական ընդհանրումների ժամանակ ղազախաբնակ հայերն չարաչար պատժվում են՝ կորցնելով այն ամենը, ինչ ունեին։ Թուրքերը հրդեհում են Ջաղեթյանցի, Մելիք-Իսրայելյանի, Գուլումյանի, Խաչատրյանի և այլոց տները, թալանում և ավերում եկեղեցին ու դպրոցը։ Փախչելով Թիֆլիս և մերձակա հայաբնակ գյուղեր՝ հայ բնակիչները հազիվ կարողանում են ազատել իրենց կյանքը". This translates to: "1905-1906 During the Armenian–Tatar massacres, the Armenians living in Kazakh were severely punished by losing everything they had. The Turks set fire to the houses of Jaghetyants, Melik-Israelyan, Gulumyan, Khachatryan and others, looted and destroyed the church and the school. Armenian residents barely able to save their lives fleeing Armenian-populated villages near Tiflis". Somebody apparently interpreted that as a "prelude to the cusp of the Arm. Gen." or something like that. By the way, I updated that Berkeley source and replaced it w/ one where the name "Koght" is actually referenced. I found a PDF version of the source, and I added the page where the information is found. I hope that's sufficient. BaxçeyêReş (talk) 14:52, 29 April 2021 (UTC)

Hello once again. In regards to Nngi, I have read the entire discussion that you linked on my talk page, and I do not understand what this has to do w/ Nngi or other places currently in the Arm./Rus. peacekeeping zone. The conversation seems to be abt/ a user called CuriousGolden with whom I have never interacted in my entire life. Could you enlighten me on this?

Armenian town names

Hello there. I have a question regarding the articles from which I removed purported old names without a source.

After you reverted my edits, the old (which I assume to be Azeri) names suddenly show up with a source, yet when I originally found those pages, all that information was unsourced.

Could you please answer the following questions I have for you: 1. How come those names now appear with sources? 2. Why, and if yes, how did my edits—removing unsourced information—constitute a reason to revert my edits?

Thank you in advance. Sincerely, BaxçeyêReş (talk) 02:09, 14 June 2021 (UTC)

Proposed deletion of Dilara Aliyeva

The article Dilara Aliyeva has been proposed for deletion because of the following concern:

Not notable, does not pass GNG or NBLP

While all constructive contributions to Misplaced Pages are appreciated, pages may be deleted for any of several reasons.

You may prevent the proposed deletion by removing the {{proposed deletion/dated}} notice, but please explain why in your edit summary or on the article's talk page.

Please consider improving the page to address the issues raised. Removing {{proposed deletion/dated}} will stop the proposed deletion process, but other deletion processes exist. In particular, the speedy deletion process can result in deletion without discussion, and articles for deletion allows discussion to reach consensus for deletion. - Kevo (talk) 06:41, 14 July 2021 (UTC)

Qara qoyunlu and turkification of Azerbaijan

"Qaraqoyunlu are the drivers of these political migration movements from Anatolia to Iran and at the same time the first member of a new settlement movement that will ensure the restoration of Turkmen rule in Iran and, in fact, the Turkification of Azerbaijan. As it is understood from these words, the Turkish they spoke was the Oghuz or Turkmen language, which is called Azerbaijani today. It is understood that Jahanshah, one of the rulers of Qaraqoyunlu, was one of the representatives of Azerbaijani literature.

I want to add this, do you mind?
