Abkhazia

I used primary sources from UN documents which are available in every public or reference library catalogues. I never search online for reliable data (none in university practise source searching online) but if you insist (although you don’t have the ground to challenge any sources from official documents not available online but on hard copy).

Autonomous Republic of Abkhazia

Hello,

Kober already inserted those references into the article. I left a message on the article's talk page regarding the quality of the references. Please have a look. Thanks Óðinn 04:55, 27 July 2007 (UTC)

User:Pocopocopocopoco/sandbox/Government of the Autonomous Republic of Abkhazia/

I've responded to you on Talk:Government of the Autonomous Republic of Abkhazia.--Kober 05:24, 18 August 2007 (UTC)

SHHH

Shhhh!. Let them continue to project a victory or a draw, it will be less pressure to start another shooting war. Also, it will spare another endless wheel war. Also a sparing of cognitive dissonance I love your user name (poco)x4.Godspeed John Glenn! Will 15:30, 21 August 2007 (UTC)

Levan Urushadze

Dear Pocopocopocopoco! Dr. Levan Z. Urushadze really is a NOTABLE Georgian historian and public figure: he is one of the founders and Scientific Co-ordinator of the Museum of the Soviet Occupation of the Georgian National Museum, Doctor of Historical Sciences (Full Doctor, highest scientific degree in Georgia), Fellow of the World Academy of Art and Science (WAAS, USA), author of about 80 scientific papers and 5 monographs, one of the outstanding representatives of the Human Rights movement of Georgia of 1992-2003, etc. --Kalmosani (Ilia Khuntsaria), 08:09, 8 September 2007 (UTC)

Dear Pocopocopocopoco! Please, note that I'm NOT Dr. Urushadze!!! I'm his friend and I'm working with his computer, because I hawe not my own equipment! --Kalmosani 08:42, 8 September 2007 (UTC)

Dear Pocopocopocopoco! Please, note that I'm NOT connected with business, with scientific or other activities of Dr. Urushadze. I'm linguist. Article about Dr. Urushadze is based on the data of many publications. --Kalmosani —Preceding unsigned comment added by Kalmosani (talk • contribs) 22:49, 8 September 2007 (UTC)

Stratfor

Hi Pocopocopocopoco, Could you provide a source that does not need a member log in? It's difficult to check content if a Wikipedian has to register and/or pay. (It especially becomes problematic if a Wikipedian has to do so on a regular basis. Though sometimes it is unavoidable.) It's also difficult to read more about a topic. Btw: could you also attribute the quote to the author(s) rather than only to the think thank/agency. Greeting, Sijo Ripa 23:39, 15 September 2007 (UTC)

Hi Pocopocopocopoco,

Thanks for your quick response and the source. Well, first I overlooked that it was a quote. Brackets are seldom used in Misplaced Pages - and are especially not used when the content is not secondary as it is the case (the difference between perhaps "on purpose" and more likely "accidental" is important). Also, the word "under-loved" seem to be a strange remark to be made by an analyst. Moreover, how can brackets be used in a quote? I mean, brackets are used in writings, not in interviews. But as you provided the source, there's of course not a problem. Sijo Ripa 09:58, 16 September 2007 (UTC)

Misplaced Pages and Languages

Greetings Cat! I couldn't help but notice from your user page that you "make tons of edits" to a number of language wikipedia's for which you don't seem to have knowledge of the language. Could you tell me how this works? The only reason I ask is that I think that wikipedia might be a good tool to learn new languages. Also, if you don't mind asking, what do you mean by that phrase at the top of your user page, the one that has aiur? Pocopocopocopoco 03:02, 27 September 2007 (UTC)

I edit mostly with my bots on those wikis. The idea is that "edits" do not have a weight and I am holding my contribution equal. The Aiur quote is from StarCraft by a Protoss dark templar. -- Cat 10:16, 27 September 2007 (UTC)

Kurds in Armenia

I noticed your clean-up efforts. Keep up the good work. I would encourage you to review other such articles such as Kurds in Lebanon. Given how the article started out and get edited primarily by one person. -- Cat 01:48, 28 September 2007 (UTC)

DRV you might be interested in

Hi Pocopocopocopoco, you might be interested in Misplaced Pages:Deletion review/Kurdish-Israeli relations. I'm sending a short note to people who were involved in this debate and a related debate at Misplaced Pages:Articles for deletion/Kurdish-Chinese relations, to allow for maximum consensus. It would be great if you could review my deletion decision and make comments accordingly. Thanks! - Ta bu shi da yu 23:37, 1 October 2007 (UTC)

Are not you tired

...of these games, Poco? Now you decided to create a split between Misplaced Pages's Georgian and Turkish communities? --Kober 17:49, 7 October 2007 (UTC)

Thanks for your advice, but I don't remember to have ever asked it. Also, I'm pretty sure that you're genuinely interested in Georgia, but from what I can see your interest is limited to putting exclusively negative info about Georgia, trying to get rid of articles that do not meet your pro-separatist POV, and promoting slanderish articles about Georgia. --Kober 18:11, 7 October 2007 (UTC)

As for the Georgians in Turkey. I've already explained that the Turkish government does not recognize Georgians as an ethnic minority and there're no census data available on them. Many Georgian ethnographic accounts put 1-1,5 mil as the number of ethnic Georgians living in Turkey, but I'm afraid you will denounce them as biased and unreliable. --Kober 18:19, 7 October 2007 (UTC)

Poco, I think you misunderstood me. I have no personal grievances against you, but your agenda is obvious to me. Anyway, I see no point in further discussion of this issue. Let’s return to the Turkish-Georgian story. The stats included in the Demographics of Turkey article come from the 1965 census, I guess. More than four decades have passed since then. Although assimilation is a powerful factor, Turkey has become more democratic nation and its people are proud to acknowledge their diversity in spite of some state-encouraged efforts to obscure their origins. I have met several Turkish citizens of Georgian extraction who no longer speak their mother tongue but identify themselves as Georgians. Their Turkish and Georgian identities are not conflicting, but complementary. They are loyal citizens of the Turkish state, but respect their ancestry. The Georgian society of Turkey consists of two large communities: the Georgians who are indigenous to NW Turkey and the muhajirs (Chveneburi) who had fled the Russian persecution to the Ottoman possessions. The estimates of their number vary to a high degree, ranging between 150,000 to 1 million. The former figure is an obvious underestimate, while the latter may seem somewhat exaggerated, but is still quite plausible.--Kober 05:54, 8 October 2007 (UTC)

Transnistria WPr

Hi! Obviously I don't have anything against reviving this project. I don't thing I'll participate in it though as I'm not an expert on this matter and I'm not that interested in it. Alæxis_¿question? 07:01, 14 October 2007 (UTC)

I know you wanted to contact me also, but I'm kind of busy right now. When I will have more time, I will try to improve this category.--MariusM 14:05, 15 October 2007 (UTC)

In a democracy is legitimate to have groups expressing different opinions and making pressure to the government to accept their opinion.--MariusM 23:29, 15 October 2007 (UTC)

Do you have sources for the European Comunity involvement?--MariusM 10:15, 16 October 2007 (UTC)

Thanks for refference. Should be mentioned however, that Voronin himself never aknowledged that he wanted initially to sign Kozak memorandum. While possible true, this information is coming only from opponents of Voronin. Presence of Russian troups was the main problem of Kozak plan, I think. Russia was involved in 1992 war, it can not be considered a neutral part. European Union is more neutral. Russia made a comitment to withdraw its troups, but it didn't follow the comitment. Transnistrian authorities also have a reputation of not following their comitments. Democratic life for citizens of Transnistria is not possible until Russian troups are still there. The settlement should bring democracy for the people of the region, not to legitimize a regime which is responsible for human right abuses and economic disaster of the region. A settlement which would give to Transnistria the right to influence decisions in Chişinău but will refuse Chişinău to influence decisions in Transnistria is not a democratic one.--MariusM 21:01, 17 October 2007 (UTC)

Thanks for rv. I wanted to revert the anon changes but did it otherwise. Iberieli 16:03, 20 October 2007 (UTC)

Your comments regarding Tri-City Skins and Canadian Ethnic Cleansing Team

Please assume good faith and please don't jump to conclusions regarding my motivations. I would afford you that much courtesy. Thank you. AnnieHall 07:39, 26 October 2007 (UTC)

Shane Ruttle Martinez

Can you please look at Shane Ruttle Martinez? There are a lot of vanity elements to the article. Cheap Laffs 06:18, 28 October 2007 (UTC)

Wow, this is unique (note sarcasm) - another "new user" making strange edits to a single profile of a noted Canadian human right activist? *yawn* I think Pocopocopocopoco has better things to worry about than pandering your biased whims. Frank Pais 06:38, 28 October 2007 (UTC)

Welcome!

Hi, and welcome to the Military history WikiProject! As you may have guessed, we're a group of editors working to improve Misplaced Pages's coverage of topics related to military history.

A few features that you might find helpful:

• Our navigation box points to most of the useful pages within the project.
• The announcement and open task box is updated very frequently. You can watchlist it if you're interested; or, you can add it directly to your user page by including {{WPMILHIST Announcements}} there.
• Most important discussions take place on the project's main discussion page; it is highly recommended that you watchlist it.
• The project has several departments, which handle article quality assessment, detailed article and content review, article improvement contests, and other tasks.
• We have a number of task forces that focus on specific topics, nations, periods, and conflicts.
• We've developed a style guide that covers article structure and content, template use, categorization, and many other issues of interest.
• The project has a stress hotline available for your use.

If you have any questions, please don't hesitate to ask one of the project coordinators, or any experienced member of the project, and we'll be happy to help you. Again, welcome! We look forward to seeing you around! Kirill 05:01, 7 November 2007 (UTC)

1921 constitution

I don't have time for a thorough search now but it seems from several indirect sources that there was indeed an article granting autonomy to Abkhazia in 1921 constitution. Alæxis_¿question? 06:12, 7 November 2007 (UTC)

2007 Georgian demonstrations

I know that you really enjoy another crisis in my country, but please try to stick to NPOV until I'm back on Misplaced Pages.--Kober 05:24, 8 November 2007 (UTC)

Greetings Poco. I think we've already discussed that extensively on that article's talk page. Anyway, the user talk page is not an appropriate place to continue the discussion. First, the website says its a blog and I don't understand why you question that. Second, abkhazia.com, and abkhazeti.ru are the NGO websites, not personal blogs. Third, your assertion that resistance.georgia is an expert blog is also not valid. I understand that she has impressed you, but she has always been considered as a political activist close to the Georgian Republican Party (which has recently lost one voter in the person of myself) rather than an expert in any particular field. If you're interested in I can recommend you some Georgian experts and scholars who are considered to be more or less neutral. They don't normally run slurish blogs, but their publications are available on the credible international websites. --Kober 05:28, 23 November 2007 (UTC)

Poco, are you trying to blackmail me? If you don't see the difference between the Georgian IDPs' NGO websites and that blog, I cannot help you. I'm sorry. And I'd also ask you to continue this discussion on the article's talk page. Btw, what do you think about this blog? Should we include it in the articles related to modern Russia and its politics? --Kober 05:40, 24 November 2007 (UTC)

Regarding your second question, I don't really known any free Georgian-English translation tool, but I'll to try to search for it through Georgian engines. Articles by leading Georgian political scientists are regularly published on the websites such as OpenDemocracy, and CIPPD. I also like IWPR for its realtively neutral journalistic reports. --Kober 05:50, 24 November 2007 (UTC)

Verjakette

Hello Pocopocopocopoco, thanks for your support. The results of my unofficial "checkuser" was negative on Verjakette being Artaxiad. I'm going to make a request for him to be unblocked and I'm interested of the evidence you have to offer. If you have the time, you can email it to me or post it in my Sandbox. Thanks VartanM (talk) 01:07, 8 December 2007 (UTC)

My offer is open to anyone who has been banned from Misplaced Pages, unless they have been banned many times already. John Vandenberg (talk) 04:43, 13 December 2007 (UTC)

I've never seen you around before, but thanks for reverting the POV edits that two editors are pushing. OrangeMarlin 05:41, 9 December 2007 (UTC)

Sorry Pocopocopocopoco, I am not proficiant in Armenian. Will have to ask VartanM probably... Steelmate (talk) 03:24, 21 December 2007 (UTC)

Lachin

You made this diff: Keep in mind that Nagorno-Karabakh only claims the specific areas within its borders, which do not include Lachin; Lachin and the other surrounding rayons are Azerbaijani land controlled/occupied/whichever by Armenia and NK, and have never been claimed or annexed. Just a note to let you know, GM's reversion of you was accurate. --Golbez (talk) 15:46, 21 December 2007 (UTC)

{{unblock|Summary of reasons:I was not edit waring, I made 1 revert in a 24 hour period. The other user recieved a warning and I recieved praise from the blocking admin prior to the blocking and had no indication that my behaviour was wrong. My last edit to the article was a self revert, this is not edit waring behavior. I will stay away from the article for the duration of the block if unblocked. Please see below for a detailed explanation as the template doesn't seem to be able to handle all the information that is there. Pocopocopocopoco (talk) 16:50, 29 December 2007 (UTC)}}

Y

Your request to be unblocked has been granted for the following reason(s): I don't seem to be able to find the admin who blocked you in very short order; but while I must remind you that the three revert rule is not an entitlement to a set number of reverts and one can be blocked for a single edit in especially contentious areas, your assurance that you will stay away from the disputed article (and, I'll add, related articles) appears sufficient for me to lift a short block. I will, however, restore the block with its duration reset if you stray. Good editing. Request handled by: — Coren  17:18, 29 December 2007 (UTC)

Detailed Unblock Reasons

1. The blocking admin said that I was edit waring but I was not edit waring at 2007 Georgian demonstrations, I made 1 revert that I didn't self revert in a 24 hour period. The other editor made five. All other edits I made were additions to the article that I were on the heels of an RFC that I had initiated which I had believed reached a consensus.
2. The other editor that was also blocked, user:Kober, received a warning first from the blocking admin that his editing behaviour was wrong before being blocked. I never received any such warning or any indication that my editing behaviour was wrong despite being in communcation with the blocking admin over this issue. In fact, if you read the blocking admins response in the link I provided, he says "Thanks for the report, by the way. It shows that you truly care about helping to build a better encyclopedia."
3. My last edit to the article in question was a self-revert. This is not the actions of a revert warrior.
4. If unblocked, I promise to stay away from that article or any related articles for the remainder of the 24 hour period. There are plenty of unrelated articles which I can and plan to contribute during that period. Thanks in advance Pocopocopocopoco (talk) 16:50, 29 December 2007 (UTC)

As a quick note, I should mention that I absolutely hated to do that. Had there been another person or two involved in the dispute, I would have gladly protected the page and been done with it, because you're both good, prolific editors. :( But, it seemed like it just kept going back and forth despite both of you guys knowing there was a dispute, and you both chose to continue making edits to the article despite my caution to keep using the talk page. :\ Anyway, please don't take it personally, as I only wanted to calm the situation. Cheers =) --slakr 21:52, 29 December 2007 (UTC)

Re

Hi Pocopocopocopoco, sorry for answering so late. Their official web site is here, but it's only in Russian language. I'm guessing the English and Armenian versions will be added later, since they have that option. Let me know if you need any of the articles translated. VartanM (talk) 03:11, 2 January 2008 (UTC)

Reply

I've given an explanation of my view on the Arbitration Enforcement page. I don't see how promoting a Nagorno-Karabakh project right now would benefit Misplaced Pages. Nothing is stopping you editing NK articles, although you should be aware that this whole topic area is extremely fraught at the moment and subject to ArbCom monitoring. Cheers. --Folantin (talk) 11:13, 2 January 2008 (UTC)

International Law

To answer your questions. There are two types of International recognition.

1- International recognition under International law.

A country has this when it signs international legal treaties and international agreements with other countries. Transnistria has many examples of this and is absolutely recognised as an independent state under international law. It even signs at inter-presidential level which is the ultimate recognition under International law. This is known as 'international legal personality'.

THis International recognition is the main international recognition. See below for the secondary and less meaningful type,

2 Full and Partial Diplomatic Relations

Full diplomatic relations-

When a country is established it attains International Legal Personality, it will then normally invite other countries to formalise international diplomatic status, this is not international recognition but more of a recognising and approval of it.

The Falkland Islands are a perfect example.

Very few countries in that part of the world recognise Britian's claim and control, and many openly support Argentina's territorial claim on the Island. At one point, the UN countries were divided 50/50 on its status. Therefore the Islands were partly recognised as being part of Argentina and also Partly recognised as part of UK....thus the word 'International recogition' was non concrete The only international recognition that mattered was that of who controled the territory under international law. This could only be the de-facto administration - The British.

To sort out the confusion it was determined that under International Law the over-riding consideration is that the de-facto legal status holds precedent over de-jure claims, however strongly supported.

So Falklands Islands are Internationally recognised as being part of UK, however dozens of countires believe the Islands lie within the Territorial Integrity of Argentina. But on wiki we should never state the FI are part of Argentina. Likewise it is not correct to say PMR is part of Moldova.

In Transnistria's case , countries are obliged not to form such diplomatic station while negotiatons are ongoing, yet under international law, the right to self determination is clearly set out, so there is strictly speaking nothing stopping anyone, but common practice is to hold off while disputes unravel themselves. Partial diplomatic Recogition.

This is when countries engage as equal status states and enter international agreements and discussion, Transnistria already has this with most countries.

More edit warring

I will ask you to remember that the reason that I have shortened your block was that you would behave; staying away from the disputed article for the remainder of your block was a strict minimum. Your current disruption on NKAO-related pages could end up having you placed under editing restrictions, and you would be wise to reconsider bringing old nationalistic disputes to Misplaced Pages. — Coren  03:53, 8 January 2008 (UTC)

I was referring to your mass revert last week; this wasn't meant to be a "warning of impending doom" because of what you are doing right now so much as a reminder to behave in general. I now notice I should have said "recent" rather than "current"; my poor choice of wording is probably the reason you weren't quite sure what I was talking about.  :-) — Coren  14:55, 8 January 2008 (UTC)

I'm going to poke FPS about this. Put simply: I do beleive you need some guidance in following consensus and "playing nice" with your fellow editors, but I see no indication that you are William Mauco. I'll discuss things with him and see if we can clarify matters. — Coren  04:10, 9 January 2008 (UTC)

It was redirected to Misplaced Pages:Deletion review#Temporary review in November 2007. If you want the text of a deleted article, you can make request of an admin who is in Category:Misplaced Pages administrators who will provide copies of deleted articles.--Fuhghettaboutit (talk) 04:19, 10 February 2008 (UTC)

I have restored the two articles that you asked DGG to restore. In my opinion, UN Security Resolutions on the Nagorno-Karabakh War does not need to be userfied .. I think it is quite reasonable to have it as a list. That is just my opinion; maybe others disagree. I wont object to it being deleted after you have finished, or userfied if that is what you want. If you do want to userfy it, view the page, click the move button, and specify "User:Pocopocopocopoco/UN Security Resolutions on the Nagorno-Karabakh War" as the new name of the article. Cheers, John Vandenberg (talk) 21:36, 10 February 2008 (UTC)

No worries. Did you see my comment on Talk:UN Security Resolutions on the Nagorno-Karabakh War?

I realise why you wanted it, and I consider it reasonable that you can see the full history, unless there are serious issues that would prevent them from being undeleted. Note that there is no need to ask arbcom to undelete; you just need to find an admin who has time to figure out what you are talking about. I've undeleted the history to each of those resolutions, so the only Ehud contribution that is still deleted is a single change to this article Misplaced Pages:Articles for deletion/Menachem Nissel. The article was created by Jeremy12201986 on 23:52, 4 July 2007. The change Ehud made was on "18:35, 22 July 2007", and it consisted of significantly expanding the stub, adding roughly 1100 bytes, but the added text was about a book "Rigshei Lev" written by the person, so Ehud's added text was removed by DLand on 14:17, 9 August 2007. I would rather not undelete that page, even to userfy it, but if you think it is necessary, I will.

Regarding your edits to Maddox

The sources are indeed poor, but the information contained within the article is factual and otherwise follows accordance with Misplaced Pages's policies. Instead of deleting all the information, try finding verifiable sources, or at least adding a tag to allow other editors to do so. Therefore, I hope you don't mind me reverting back to the original article, removing all the unverifiable sources, and try to replace them with sources that meet Misplaced Pages's guidelines. Thanks! Ali _(c) 22:26, 21 February 2008 (UTC)

I haven't reverted the changes yet, as I want to be sure I can find verifiable sources first. If you have time, I would appreciate it if you could add some sources as well. Here are some sites that you may find useful:

Notability of Vermillion Energy Trust

Hello, this is a message from an automated bot. A tag has been placed on Vermillion Energy Trust, by another Misplaced Pages user, requesting that it be speedily deleted from Misplaced Pages. The tag claims that it should be speedily deleted because Vermillion Energy Trust seems to be about a person, group of people, band, club, company, or web content, but it does not indicate how or why the subject is notable: that is, why an article about that subject should be included in an encyclopedia. Under the criteria for speedy deletion, articles that do not assert the subject's importance or significance may be deleted at any time. Please see the guidelines for what is generally accepted as notable.

To contest the tagging and request that administrators wait before possibly deleting Vermillion Energy Trust, please affix the template {{hangon}} to the page, and put a note on its talk page. If the article has already been deleted, see the advice and instructions at WP:WMD. Feel free to contact the bot operator if you have any questions about this or any problems with this bot, bearing in mind that this bot is only informing you of the nomination for speedy deletion; it does not perform any nominations or deletions itself. To see the user who deleted the page, click here CSDWarnBot (talk) 03:01, 29 February 2008 (UTC)

Since there were both a reasonable db and an under construction tag, I've moved the article to User:Pocopocopocopoco/Vermillion Energy Trust, where you can continue to built it.--Tikiwont (talk) 11:55, 29 February 2008 (UTC)

Ebay

I think you were being very unfair... the auction had only been underway for a few hours at this point: "I'm inclined to agree with Hoary for now with no predjudice to adding this information later if other events happen that make it more notable. It doesn't seem encyclopedic to me to add every short little relationship that notable people may have. To top things off, Jimbo's stuff isn't really selling for that much, look at the t-shirt, the highest bid is $34. Also, check out the bidder as well. It would have sold for more if this event was notable. Pocopocopocopoco (talk) 04:34, 3 March 2008 (UTC)"

Let me know if you think these numbers make the incident notable yet? ]

HELP

{{helpme}} I believe wikipedia's spam filters may be malfunctioning, I tried to make a post to talk page here twice and both times the spam filter blocked my post. I didn't put the website that the spam filter said that I put. Pocopocopocopoco (talk) 02:32, 23 March 2008 (UTC)

Spam filter? Do you mean your post was reverted? Master of Puppets _{Call me MoP! :)} 02:38, 23 March 2008 (UTC)

No, when I hit save, a page came up saying that my post was blocked because it contained a link to a website that was on wikipedia's spam filter. I never put that website in my post. Pocopocopocopoco (talk) 02:42, 23 March 2008 (UTC)

This has happened to me before. You didn't spam anything, the filer hates a link that already is there. What I did when that happened was I found the link, removed it, and in the edit summary explained that the spam filter prevented me from editing the article until that link was gone. -WarthogDemon 02:44, 23 March 2008 (UTC)

I tried searching for that link in the section that I was editing and it wasn't there I didn't edit from the top but just from the section. Does the filter only look inside the section or is it based on the whole talk page? Pocopocopocopoco (talk) 02:47, 23 March 2008 (UTC)

Based on the whole page. Or perhaps it is in the article itself. (I could be wrong, as in both instances I was editing in the article space.) -WarthogDemon 02:50, 23 March 2008 (UTC)

Thanks for your help guys! I've removed the spam (from another section) so I should be good to go. Pocopocopocopoco (talk) 02:51, 23 March 2008 (UTC)

No problem. :) I just tested it to make sure. Everything's fine now. Happy editing! -WarthogDemon 02:54, 23 March 2008 (UTC)

Salvation Union of South Ossetia

I can see that Ldingley was indef blocked, but can you provide me a link to the banning discussion? _GB 16:57, 12 April 2008 (UTC)

Thank you for that - there's a difference, though, between a block and a ban. A block is a technical measure where an admin removes the ability of an editor to edit for a period of time, or indefinitely. A ban is a community decision that an editor may not contribute to all or a part of the encyclopaedia. Whilst contributions of banned users may be deleted or reverted on sight, WP:BAN wouldn't appear to apply here, I don't think. _GB 17:14, 12 April 2008 (UTC)

Tag it accordingly ({{coi}} etc.), maybe prod it - there's sufficient notability for it to survive speedy on the grounds of non-notability, but it may not survive a prod. _GB 17:21, 12 April 2008 (UTC)

Hmmm. Looks like the prod didn't go uncontested for very long there! _GB 17:45, 12 April 2008 (UTC)

Not sure. Give it a couple of days, I guess. _GB 18:01, 12 April 2008 (UTC)

Speedy deletion of English motherfucker, do you speak it?

Please refrain from introducing inappropriate pages such as English motherfucker, do you speak it?, to Misplaced Pages. Doing so is not in accordance with our policies. If you would like to experiment, please use the sandbox

If you think that this notice was placed here in error, you may contest the deletion by adding {{hangon}} to the top of the page (just below the existing speedy deletion or "db" tag), coupled with adding a note on the talk page explaining your position, but be aware that once tagged for speedy deletion, if the article meets the criterion it may be deleted without delay. Please do not remove the speedy deletion tag yourself, but don't hesitate to add information to the article that would would render it more in conformance with Misplaced Pages's policies and guidelines. Lastly, please note that if the article does get deleted, you can contact one of these admins to request that a copy be emailed to you. Bfigura 00:08, 13 April 2008 (UTC)

Stalking

I just want to remind you that this kind of stalking is considered as Misplaced Pages harassment according to the guideline on Wikistalking: "The term "wiki-stalking" has been coined to describe following a contributor around the wiki, editing the same articles as the target, with the intent of causing annoyance or distress to another contributor." Therefore, before i report you to admins (if this continues), i want to kindly remind you to stop stalking my user name or following my contributions. Please review the guideline carefully and instead of conflicting with other Georgian users, it would be more productive if you engage in more constructive way. I'm no warning you, just suggesting and reminding. Thanks. Iberieli (talk) 16:23, 13 April 2008 (UTC)

Nop you were not, you simply stalking people. Well paranoid is an attack and also another violation of Misplaced Pages:No personal attacks. Not nice indeed. Again more constructiveness less conflicting. Thats the way it always works. All the best. Iberieli (talk) 16:28, 13 April 2008 (UTC)

Re:

Hi Poco. Let's be honest, ok? You know perfectly well what that passage meant and that the message it conveyed was absolutely valid.

Thanks, Kober 05:06, 20 April 2008 (UTC)

Yeah, you might find it funny, but for tens of thousands of people it is destroyed lives, lost relatives and abandoned homes.

Edit warring, notice of discretionary sanctions

As you seem to be engaged in edit warring in an area covered by an arbitration committee case, this is to be your warning that discretionary sanctions, as provided in this case may be applied to you. Specifically, further edit warring may lead to a block from editing, or a temporary ban from editing articles on which edit wars have taken place. Please make sure to use dispute resolution rather than engaging in repeated reverts. Seraphimblade 17:23, 1 June 2008 (UTC)

I note the following reverts: , , , and . The other editor is also edit warring, so both of you have been warned. However, neither the fact that the other editor is edit warring nor the fact that you technically may have avoided 3RR makes the behavior acceptable. If you disagree with him, please use dispute resolution, not repeated reverts. The warning stands as written. If you believe it to be incorrect, you may see the ruling linked to for the appropriate mechanisms of appeal. Seraphimblade 17:37, 1 June 2008 (UTC)

On the final edit, I shall grant you, you are correct, those had never been added before. However, removals are reverts. If you had removed the content right after the editor who added it had done so, it would have been a clear revert. It is no less so since you did so later on. Seraphimblade 18:08, 1 June 2008 (UTC)

Again, the warning stands as it was written. If you should wish to appeal it, the relevant case page linked above contains procedures by which you may do so. I do not intend to remove the warning. Seraphimblade 20:33, 1 June 2008 (UTC)

June 2008

This is the last warning you will receive for your disruptive edits.
The next time you delete or blank page content or templates from Misplaced Pages, as you did to Sheylanli, you will be blocked from editing. Tan | 39 03:37, 12 June 2008 (UTC)

Sorry to template-warning an apparent regular, there. But really, this is your final warning. Stop blanking content with no explanation. Tan | 39 03:39, 12 June 2008 (UTC)

Well, hm. You are correct that I might have not looked far enough, but it seems that the more I look, the more you two are just edit warring anyways - and that needs to stop. You are no stranger to warnings about such things; Seraphim warned you just a week and a half ago above. However, in the spirit of things, I apologize for accusing you of "blanking content without reason" - this was confusing and probably not true. I removed the obvious "stop hand" from the above message, and I will also drop a message on the other's talk page, to be fair. Tan | 39 03:24, 13 June 2008 (UTC)

Dispute resolution

I will certainly be happy to have a look at the dispute and assist as much as possible in bringing it to a resolution, but please do keep in mind that admins are no more empowered than any other editor to decide who is "right" in a content dispute. I would, however, encourage everyone involved to stop edit warring, as that tends not to resolve the dispute, and tends to lead this way. Discussion is always the best way to resolve disputes, and if the sides still can't come to an agreement, we certainly have dispute resolution for assistance from mediation or to invite uninvolved editors to comment on the matter. Seraphimblade 15:28, 15 June 2008 (UTC)

I'm not accusing you (or for that matter anyone in particular) of edit-warring, if I were giving a specific warning to you I certainly would have made that clear. Just some general advice, I certainly know how these situations can become heated before we know it. As to the debate, I am quite frankly finding my eyes crossing as I try to untangle the back-and-forth going on, so I certainly couldn't offer any kind of informed advice. I did make a request on the thread that I believe might help clarify things, would you mind laying out your viewpoints there? I think if we can get a summary without so much arguing back and forth, perhaps we can begin to make some progress. Seraphimblade 03:44, 16 June 2008 (UTC)

Reminder of editing restrictions

Notice: Under the terms of Misplaced Pages:Requests for arbitration/Armenia-Azerbaijan 2, any editor who edits articles which relate to the region of Turkey, Armenia, Azerbaijan and Iran and the ethnic and historical issues related to that area in an aggressive point of view manner marked by incivility may be placed under several editing restrictions, by notice on that editor's talk page. This notice is to remind you that you are listed as one of the users placed under supervision. I would like to remind you that are you are placed under the following restricitons:

1. Revert limitation (formerly known as revert parole). You are limited to one revert per page per week, excepting obvious vandalism, and are required to discuss any content reversions on the page's talk page.
2. Supervised editing (formerly known as probation). You may be banned by any administrator from editing any or all articles which relate to the region of Turkey, Armenia, Azerbaijan and Iran and the ethnic and historical issues related to that area should you fail to maintain a reasonable degree of civility in your interactions with one another concerning disputes which may arise.
3. Civility supervision (formerly known as civility parole). If you make any edits which are judged by an administrator to be uncivil, personal attacks, or assumptions of bad faith, then you may be blocked for a short time of up to one week for repeat offenses.

You made three reverts in the same week here, here, and here at Sheylanli tribe. I am going to let it slide this time, but from now on please follow the terms of your editing restrictions. Gulmammad has been reminded as well.

Enforcement: Violations of limitations, supervision, or bans imposed by the remedies in this case may be enforced by brief blocks of up to a week in the event of repeat violations. After 5 blocks the maximum block period shall increase to one year.

Note: This notice is not effective unless given by an administrator and logged here. Khoikhoi 19:35, 6 July 2008 (UTC)

Poco, I'm afraid you're mistaken. I have spoken with Seraphimblade, and although I agree that this was not sufficient nor clear enough, he has clarified that it was indeed the warning/notice that the case applies to those areas. He has also said that when he warned you and Gulmammad, that he put both of you on the ArbCom case list at that time, as well. You can contact him if you are unclear on the matter, but you are definitely listed here, there is no dispute about that. Regardless, even though both of you were unaware of it, please be aware of it now. As far as I'm concerned, the editing restrictions start today, so please read them carefully so that you don't violate them. If you believe that you shouldn't have been put on the list, you can make an appeal of this sanction here. But for now both you and Gulmammad are on editing restrictions. I have examined both of your edits, and both of you have been edit warring against one of another. That is why both of you are now restricted to one revert per week, etc. Khoikhoi 21:49, 7 July 2008 (UTC)

Sorry for my late response. I have spoken with Seraphimblade. He has stated that he definitely disagrees that you are not subject to the restrictions. He has also said that both you and Gulmammad were warned that future misbehavior would lead to sanctions, and since you're both involved, both of you are being sanctioned. He left a note on your talk pages so I presume that you're aware of the ArbCom case and its implications. If you have any further questions you can leave a message on Seraphimblade's or my talk page.

Your recent speedy deletion nominations

Hi. You nominated several articles for deletion recently, which were associated with the Khojaly Massacre article. I don't think that you should have done this. For one thing, there's a conflict going on between you and a couple of other people over the use of the word 'massacre' versus 'genocide'. The redirect from 'genocide' after you moved the page was not vandalism. Please be cautious in your use of the db templates, okay? It's too easy for a lazy administrator to delete something that's flagged as speedy-delete without properly looking into it. - Richard Cavell (talk) 22:37, 23 July 2008 (UTC)

You can take it to RfD if you feel that it is appropriate. I feel that the use of the term 'genocide' was done in good faith, even if it is an exuberant use of the term 'genocide', and that 'genocide' is a valid search term. - Richard Cavell (talk) 23:11, 23 July 2008 (UTC)

Re:

Most of those articles were copies of existing articles about villages in the Ordubad Rayon of Azerbaijan, except they had their (alternative?) Armenian names in the headings. I retrieved the current names and directed them under proper headings, as much as it was possible. Morever, the articles constisted of two or three biased statements, were lacking sources, were mass-created by a recently activated account, and were POV, as they listed clearly Azerbaijani villages under 'Cities, towns and villages of Armenia.'

NAC

Hi, thanks for your message. I am familiar with WP:NAC (having done over 70 closures), and whilst it is based on WP:DPR, is still an essay, and whilst it is one that I certainly take heed of and adhere to to some extent I do not take it as the word of God. WP:SNOW is based on the future, and the inevitability of a certain closure pre-empting the need for further discussion. By that point there were four solid keeps with good rationales, and a fifth which suggested snowball keep, which I agreed with. WP:NAC suggests over six votes and over one day's listing. I would have voted keep for what it was worth as well, so that makes six, and it was one day and one hour old. The statistics are irrelevant to me - it was clear that the consensus would have been to keep the article. There was no reason why I shouldn't just help in clearing up potential backlogs by closing it early. Any other questions, don't hesitate to contact me. Thanks, and have a nice day. :) — neuro 08:10, 19 January 2009 (UTC)
