:]: Yes. I cannot see how to improve the article further, as my knowledge of the subject is practically non-existent. All I could really do was correct the grammar, syntax and formatting. I have edited the Family Tree, but it did not need much editing, and have tidied up some of the formatting in the notes and the rest.

==Disambiguation link notification for August 28==
Thank you for bringing this to my attention. If the fall of Fallujah is not in the article, it means that someone must have deleted it and the sources associated with it. It was probably one of those idiots who have been fighting over the status of ISIS. Someone needs to do something about those fools before they ruin the article. I'll try to rescue the orphaned references (Did I say that right? That is what this is called, isn't it?) and re-add the information, but it will take some time. I wish I could do something about the disruptive editors, but I'm new here, and I don't know what to do. Thanks again! ] (]) 21:27, 12 December 2014 (UTC)
:]: Yes, please add it if it is important information. I cannot remember it being there, but if you can find the orphaned references and restore the information, it will improve the article. It will need to go in the "As Islamic State of Iraq and the Levant" part of the "History" section. Do you mean editors who are anti-ISIL are spoiling the article? In my opinion at the moment the article is not always spoken in a neutral voice, which is against one of Misplaced Pages's main policies in ]. Remember you can add your voice to the Talk page discussions on anything and if you do not agree with what is said there you must speak up. It doesn't matter if you have not followed all the discussion, your opinion will be as valuable as any other editor's. ~ ] (]) 22:21, 12 December 2014 (UTC)

== India and ISIL ==

India got added incorrectly and they just copied over the UN refs, but in fact India banned ISIL today. I've found a very specific ref that ISIL has been and a link to the which clearly says LIST OF BANNED TERRORIST ORGANISATIONS UNDER SECTION 35 OF UNLAWFUL ACTIVITIES (PREVENTION) ACT. Note how they were added under the UN provisions and the UN provisions are on the gov list. Hope that meets your standard. ] (]) 18:20, 16 December 2014 (UTC)
:Thanks. I thought it might be correct, and only reverted because the citations were not right. I don't know how to look up things like this, but thought someone would be able to. ] (]) 18:50, 16 December 2014 (UTC)

== Another editor can not trust your archives to be a true and full reflection of your talk pages<small> <small><small>'''''(i.e. when an editor deletes threads from their Talk page or alters anything in their archives.)''''' '''' </small>==
As far as I know, with certain restrictions to do with warnings and not changing other editor's contributions (], ], and ]) among others) you are free to do partial archives and delete other sections as you wish.
{{collapse top|Exchange on this}}
That was not the point I was making. If you look at my archives, with the exception of a couple of vandals or edits by banned users, my talk page archives are accurate representations of the content of my talk page (you can check that because I move the page with its history when I archive it).

The edits you have been making to remove text from your page and the alterations to material as it is copied into the archive as well as deletion once archived, means that your archives are not an accurate reflection of the content of your talk page. There is nothing wrong with that, in the sense it is not against policy (although guidelines recommended that an editor archives her/his talk page rather than deleting content), but it does mean that another editor can not trust your archives to be a true and full reflection of your talk pages as as such are useless as an archive for anyone but yourself.
-- ] (]) 16:05, 18 December 2014 (UTC)
: ]: I understood your point the first time, I think. To be clear, I have not gone back and deleted anything from an archive before, and wasn't aware I had done it this time; before you pointed it out I had no idea whether I deleted before or after archiving. You say it is better to archive than delete. Because the archives say, "Do not edit the contents of this page", does an unwanted thread have to wait until the next archiving? How is partial archiving done? Also, all deletions can easily be read by looking at the "Revision history" pages - I am sure we all look up each other's deleted threads from time to time - so I cannot see how deletions end up with an archive that cannot be trusted. Or do deleted threads not show up in archives? I need to understand this as I am still unclear about a lot of the technical side of WP editing. ] (]) 17:00, 18 December 2014 (UTC)

:Thanks for going to that trouble ], much appreciated. I will get it archived. How did you find it? I thought archives didn't keep deleted comments. I have been asking at WP:HD how to deal with this, so I have a complete archive record, how to do automatic archiving with a bot and how to do partial archiving. I noticed you said you copied your edit history over when archiving. How do you do that? I was a bit shocked to learn that deleted ''sections'' don't get retrieved by the bot, so the records won't be complete. I am still vague about deleted ''comments'' and how they get archived, so would like to know how you retrieved all the above. Sorry, still floundering with the technical side of WP editing. ] (]) 17:58, 21 December 2014 (UTC)
