Files missing description details

• File:NBayev.jpg
• File:GTer-Mikayelian.jpg
• File:VSargsyan.jpg

are missing a description and/or other details on their image description pages. If possible, please add this information. This will help other editors make better use of the images, and they will be more informative to readers.

Better source request for some of your uploads

Thanks for your uploads to Misplaced Pages. There is an issue with some of them, specifically:

• File:Meguerditchtokatliyan-tarabya.jpg
• File:Orphanageprinkipo.jpg

You provided a source, but it is difficult for other users to examine the copyright status of the images because the source is incomplete. Please consider clarifying the exact source so that the copyright status may be checked more easily. It is best to specify the exact Web page where you found the images, rather than only giving the source domain or the URL of the image files themselves. Please update the image descriptions with URLs that will be more helpful to other users in determining the copyright status.

If you have uploaded other files, consider checking that you have specified their source in a complete manner. You can find a list of files you have uploaded by following this link. If you have any questions please ask them at the Media copyright questions page or me at my talk page. Thank you. Message delivered by Theo's Little Bot (opt-out) 21:01, 31 July 2013 (UTC)

August 2013

Thank you for contributing to Misplaced Pages. We always appreciate when users upload new images. However, it appears that one or more of the images you have recently uploaded or added to an article, specifically Witnesses and testimonies of the Armenian Genocide, may fail our non-free image policy. Most often, this involves editors uploading or using a copyrighted image of a living person. For other possible reasons, please read up on our Non-free image criteria. If you have any questions please ask them at the Media copyright questions page. Werieth (talk) 20:56, 6 August 2013 (UTC)

DYK for Jesse B. Jackson

On 8 August 2013, Did you know? was updated with a fact from the article Jesse B. Jackson, which you created or substantially expanded. The fact was ... that Jesse B. Jackson (pictured) is known for saving thousands of lives during the Armenian Genocide? The nomination discussion and review may be seen at Template:Did you know nominations/Jesse B. Jackson. You are welcome to check how many hits the article got while on the front page (here's how, quick check) and it will be added to DYKSTATS if it got over 5,000. If you know of another interesting fact from a recently created article, then please suggest it on the Did you know? talk page.

Blocked user asks for revenge

Since you reported the specific user (TD23), I believe it's necessary to inform you that he tries to 'enlighten;' a number of potential 'friends' (mostly co-ethnics), in order to save the mess he created in a variety of articles. Typical example ] (he is begging to save his very edits in the same nationalistic style).Alexikoua (talk) 20:25, 24 August 2013 (UTC)

Your GA nomination of Confiscated Armenian properties in Turkey

I want to let you know that I've begun the review for your GA nomination of Confiscated Armenian properties in Turkey at Talk:Confiscated Armenian properties in Turkey/GA1. For some reason, the GA bot seems to be running slow today. --1ST7 (talk) 03:31, 3 September 2013 (UTC)

Your GA nomination of Confiscated Armenian properties in Turkey

The article Confiscated Armenian properties in Turkey you nominated as a good article has been placed on hold . The article is close to meeting the good article criteria, but there are some minor changes or clarifications needed to be addressed. If these are fixed within 7 days, the article will pass, otherwise it will fail. See Talk:Confiscated Armenian properties in Turkey for things which need to be addressed.

Plagiarism and close paraphrasing

Hi. I'm afraid the Confiscated Armenian properties in Turkey article you contributed to has parts which are very closely paraphrased from Legislative Provisions of the Ottoman/Turkish Governments Regarding Minorities and Their Properties and other sources. This can be a problem under both our copyright policies and our guideline on plagiarism.

While facts are not copyrightable, creative elements of presentation – including both structure and language – are. For an example of close paraphrasing, consider the following: The source says:

"The net result of this 'protection' law was the channeling of property 'owned' by the Turkish state to Muslims through rigged auctions, which often excluded even Muslims of non-Turkish origin."

The article says:

"These auctions channeled the property unlawfully expropriated by the Turkish state to the general Muslim population through oftentimes 'rigged' auctions, which often excluded non-Muslims or non-Turkish Muslims."

or The source says:

"Any litigant claiming property or revenues derived from its sale or rental would have the state as defendants."

The article says:

"Any litigant claiming property of revenues derived from its sale or rental would have the state as defendants."

Here are diffs where you added this content 1 and 2. These are two examples; there are other passages that similarly follow quite closely.

As a website that is widely read and reused, Misplaced Pages takes copyright very seriously to protect the interests of the holders of copyright as well as those of the Wikimedia Foundation and our reusers. Misplaced Pages's copyright policies require that the content we take from non-free sources, aside from brief and clearly marked quotations, be rewritten from scratch. So that we can be sure it does not constitute a derivative work, this article should be revised to separate it further from its source. The essay Misplaced Pages:Close paraphrasing contains some suggestions for rewriting that may help avoid these issues. The article Misplaced Pages:Misplaced Pages Signpost/2009-04-13/Dispatches also contains some suggestions for reusing material from sources that may be helpful, beginning under "Avoiding plagiarism".

Please let me know if you have questions about this. --AbstractIllusions (talk) 00:10, 18 September 2013 (UTC)

We can keep pre-history of Anatolia. But the article makes no reference to it being as a part of Iranian/Persian cultural heritage or hostory. Proudbolsahye (talk) 14:28, 25 September 2013 (UTC)

Eger bu kateogoriler bugunki Turkiye ve Iran sinirlarinda icerisinde bulunan eski medeniyetlerden bahsetiliyorsa, sorun degil. Ama Urartu bugunki Turk ve Iran toplumun bi miras olarak gorunmiyor. Urartu eski Ermenistan olarak bilinmektedir. Yani "Proto-Amenian"...wikipedia maddesi ve Misplaced Pages toplulugunda zaten bunu bi gercek olarak goriyor.

Hello. Your recent edit to Atkinson, New Hampshire appears to have added the name of a non-notable entity to a list that normally includes only notable entries. In general, a person or organization added to a list should have a pre-existing article before being added to most lists.

Pənahabad coin

Hi . Your omition in article Shusha seems to delete an important image . As you know , there is an ongoing struggle between Armenian and Azeri sides about the history of the region . A coin with the text of Fathali shah is important in showing the loyalty of the Azeri side to Qajars . As you wrote " I couldn't find image elsewhere. if anyone can find it...feel free to repost it to the article " , I did find the image in this address :The coin . It would be of great help to the article if you re-include the image to the article .

By the way , the article in Azeri Misplaced Pages about the coin is using the wrong image of copper coin (FULUS) instead of silver Pənahabad . Again I think showing the image in English Misplaced Pages can also correct the Azeri article .--Alborz Fallah (talk) 15:24, 1 October 2013 (UTC)

DYK nomination of Ernest Yarrow

Hello! Your submission of Ernest Yarrow at the Did You Know nominations page has been reviewed, and some issues with it may need to be clarified. Please review the comment(s) underneath your nomination's entry and respond there as soon as possible. Thank you for contributing to Did You Know!

Hi Proudbolsahye, I'm sorry I can't pass this as it is. I think if you just make a final check of the sources, it should be okay. I'm a bit concerned about the neutrality too; for example, it doesn't seem necessary to quote so much from Ussher about what he heard, when this is a biography of Yarrow. I know nothing about this topic, so I'm willing to take neutrality issues on good faith (to some extent). Anyway, give me a shout when you've taken another run through the sourcing.

Thanks for the welcome. I added the criminal template and added what happened after the murder, which was on Zohrab's article. I don't know that much more about him and don't have any of the books sourced, though it does sound like he was ordered to commit the murders and was then used as a scapegoat.

Refugees of Hamidian massacre

I uploaded a cleaned up version of this image. It is here. I also left a note here. – JBarta (talk) 20:40, 19 October 2013 (UTC)

Jbarta (talk · contribs), thank you so much for taking the time and effort to restoring the photograph. It looks great. The photograph has received a lot of attention since it portrays such a powerful emotion. I think we should do anything we can to restore or improve its quality so that it receives the FP status is deserves. Unfortunately, there have been some difficulties, as me and Centpaccr already recognized, which is making it extremely difficult to have a "perfect" rendition where everyone may support or oppose in unison. Oppose votes have ranged from complaints that the photograph was "too altered" or "not altered enough" with some stating that it shouldn't have been altered at all. I think this is a problem when it comes to FP nominations in general. If a photograph has been altered, voters will have their own alterations in their own mind which will never appeal to ones individual subjective point of view. It's become a true Catch 22. Proudbolsahye (talk) 21:37, 19 October 2013 (UTC)

The basic problem is that the first "restoration" was pretty badly done. You may not notice it, but as you have seen... others did. Hopefully this new edit will be better recieved because it's a more straightforward cleanup... taking the time to do it well and not getting silly with destructive edits. I don't know if it will cross the FP threshold, but we'll see how it goes. If it gets no attention there, submit it as a new candidate after the current one expires. – JBarta (talk) 21:54, 19 October 2013 (UTC)

Sounds good Jbarta...I'll take your advice :) Thx once again. Proudbolsahye (talk) 22:28, 19 October 2013 (UTC)

Falsification of Sources

Where did you get "the genocidal campaigns against both minorities" in Bjornlund, M. (January 01, 2008). The 1914 cleansing of Aegean Greeks as a case of violent Turkification. Journal of Genocide Research, 10, 1, 41-58. The source is clear:

Seen from the vantage point of observers in the major harbour city of Smyrna (Izmir), and in Constantinople (Istanbul), the Ottoman capital, CUP policies of group persecution began in earnest with the attempted ethnic cleansing of Ottoman Greeks living along the Aegean littoral..........In 1914, the aim of Turkification was not to exterminate but to expel as many Greeks of the Aegean region as possible as not only a “security measure,” but as an extension of the policy of economic and cultural boycott, while at the same time creating living space for the muhadjirs that had been driven out of their homes under equally brutal circumstances.
