Please don't give the alleged name of the woman in the Ched Evans case. This fails WP:BLPNAME and cannot be reliably sourced due to the court case.--♦IanMacM♦ 06:43, 27 July 2012 (UTC)

Unless you have a phenomenal source, do not even mention that name here. If you do have such a source, ask me first. Someguy1221 (talk) 06:55, 27 July 2012 (UTC)

Culture of Israel

Your recent edits to the page are in violation of 3RR (and also 1RR regulations which apply to all topics related to the Israel-Palestine conflict).--IranitGreenberg (talk) 13:03, 14 May 2013 (UTC)

A moderator settled it. I have not been in violation of 3RR. Thank you for your deep concern though! :) Solntsa90 (talk) 20:46, 14 May 2013 (UTC)

Actually, that's not true. If you mean nableezy, that was just their opinion as they are not an admin. I am and have reviewed the report and found that you did not violate WP:3RR. However, you came perilously close, and you should understand that you can be blocked for edit warring even if you do not violate 3RR. I chose not to do so, but you need to be more careful in the future. What you should be doing is discussing changes on the article talk page and NOT battling in the article without a clear consensus for your changes. If you insist on your changes again, as you did here, you risk being blocked now that you are clearly on notice.--Bbb23 (talk) 01:12, 15 May 2013 (UTC)

Notice of Edit warring noticeboard discussion

Hello. This message is being sent to inform you that there is currently a discussion involving you at Misplaced Pages:Administrators' noticeboard/Edit warring regarding a possible violation of Misplaced Pages's policy on edit warring. Thank you. — Preceding unsigned comment added by IranitGreenberg (talk • contribs) 13:07, 14 May 2013 (UTC)

Hi

Hi, Soltsa90,

I just wanted to tell that if by any chance you are the IP who now edits in Two Hundred Years Together, you should stop using this IP immediately, or you might be blocked per WP:SOCK. I am not telling this is you; I do not really know and have no intention to investigate. I'd like you to contribute here as much as you possibly can; hence this friendly notice. Happy editing, My very best wishes (talk) 00:00, 25 May 2013 (UTC)

How can I stop using my IP? I haven't edited that article but once I don't think. Solntsa90 (talk) 00:05, 25 May 2013 (UTC)

Is there any indication that vandalism or some such is coming from my IP or account? please let me know.Solntsa90 (talk) 00:07, 25 May 2013 (UTC)

I mean that you should only use your named account (this one). You should not edit as an IP, in parallel with your named account (assuming this IP is you; I do not really know). No, I am not telling about any vandalism; the problem would be simply using multiple accounts to make reverts (if there is such problem), and the IP would count as a second account. But whatever. You are very welcome to ignore what I am telling; this is only to inform you about the WP:SOCK policy. If you follow the policy, there is nothing to worry about. My very best wishes (talk) 00:20, 25 May 2013 (UTC)

Just to clarify, if this IP was you, that, for example, would qualify as edit warring using multiple accounts and be a valid reason for your block. What exactly you edit does not matter. Rules are rules. My very best wishes (talk) 21:03, 25 May 2013 (UTC)

Sureños

Hello, I see by your recent edit summaries to this article that you are bothered as I am by the association of Juggalos as an "Ally" at the infobox for the Sureños article, and that you have reviewed the source in question & come to a similar conclusion as to how tenuous another editor's interpretation is. I invite you to comment on this at the talk page in the interest of building consensus. Thanks! Boogerpatrol (talk) 11:27, 6 June 2013 (UTC)

March 2014

Please stop adding unreferenced or poorly referenced biographical content, especially if controversial, to articles or any other Misplaced Pages page, as you did at Arseniy Yatsenyuk‎. Content of this nature could be regarded as defamatory and is in violation of Misplaced Pages policy. If you continue, you may be blocked from editing Misplaced Pages. Please refrain from adding potentially libelous material as per WP:BLP policy. Content that is libelous may be removed immediately, use the talk page to prove your claims first before adding anything. Thank you. Львівське (говорити) 20:17, 30 March 2014 (UTC)

Says the guy who was repeatedly chastised by admins and moderators for anti-semitism... You should perhaps read the link immediately above your post. Solntsa90 (talk) 20:31, 30 March 2014 (UTC)

Notice of Edit warring noticeboard discussion

Hello. This message is being sent to inform you that there is currently a discussion involving you at Misplaced Pages:Administrators' noticeboard/Edit warring regarding a possible violation of Misplaced Pages's policy on edit warring. Thank you. --Львівське (говорити) 22:10, 30 March 2014 (UTC)

Edit warring at Arseniy Yatsenyuk

During a dispute, you should first try to discuss controversial changes and seek consensus. If that proves unsuccessful, you are encouraged to seek dispute resolution, and in some cases it may be appropriate to request page protection.

The full report of this case is at this 3RR report (permanent link). I'm also leaving you a notice (below) of the discretionary sanctions under WP:ARBEE. EdJohnston (talk) 01:36, 31 March 2014 (UTC)

Articles of interest to you are covered by sanctions under Misplaced Pages:Requests for arbitration/Eastern Europe

Please familiarise yourself with the information page at Misplaced Pages:Arbitration Committee/Discretionary sanctions, with the appropriate sections of Misplaced Pages:Arbitration Committee/Procedures, and with the case decision page before making any further edits to the pages in question. This notice is given by an uninvolved administrator and will be logged on the case decision, pursuant to the conditions of the Arbitration Committee's discretionary sanctions system.

EdJohnston (talk) 01:39, 31 March 2014 (UTC)

I don't quite understand. Is this a message saying that I am currently under discretionary sanctions, or a warning that they could be imposed? it says "can be" and "if", so I'm not exactly clear.

Solntsa90 (talk) 02:13, 31 March 2014 (UTC)

Admins have the power to impose topic bans and do other things in Eastern Europe. Nobody can be sanctioned under these special provisions unless they previously notified of the rules, and now you've been notified. If you read the WP:ARBEE decision it will tell you about the past problems that have motivated these provisions. EdJohnston (talk) 02:22, 31 March 2014 (UTC)

Rel Arseniy Yatsenyuk Jewish ethnicity

Hi fellow editor Solntsa90, Thanks for your edits and your remarks on my talk page. You raise valid points and compromise is definitely called for here. If it were only you and I debating this, I think we could work it out along the lines of what you're saying. However, since many others have expressed interest in this subject, let's move it to the talk page. Paavo273 (talk) 17:04, 1 April 2014 (UTC) Hi again User:Solntsa90: Since you asked me specific questions on my talk page that I thought were altogether reasonable, I answered them there. Paavo273 (talk) 17:51, 1 April 2014 (UTC)

April 2014

Please stop your disruptive editing. If you continue to blank out or remove portions of page content, templates, or other materials from Misplaced Pages, as you did at Right Sector, you may be blocked from editing. Please refrain from further edit warring as you are doing here or else you may be blocked again. Львівське (говорити) 23:14, 1 April 2014 (UTC)

Notice of Edit warring noticeboard discussion

Hello. This message is being sent to inform you that there is currently a discussion involving you at Misplaced Pages:Administrators' noticeboard/Edit warring regarding a possible violation of Misplaced Pages's policy on edit warring. Thank you.

Arbitration enforcement sanction on Arseniy Yatsenyuk

The following sanction now applies to you:

You are restricted to making one revert in any 48 hour period on the article Arseniy Yatsenyuk (including the talk page and any subpages), this restriction expires at 12:00, 2 May 2014 (UTC)

You have been sanctioned due to continued edit warring on the article after having already been recently blocked for edit warring on the article (see also this report on the edit warring noticeboard). The only reason I am imposing this sanction rather than a block or ban is because you are attempting to engage in good faith dispute resolution, and I encourage you to continue to do so.

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/Eastern Europe#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 for that decision. 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 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. Callanecc (talk • contribs • logs) 09:16, 2 April 2014 (UTC)

A word of advice - you have to take this restriction very seriously, and abide by it exactly. If you want advice, just leave a message on my talk page.--Toddy1 (talk) 20:12, 2 April 2014 (UTC)

Blanking at Michelle Kosilek

Please do not blank sourced material from Misplaced Pages, as you did at Michelle Kosilek. Thank you. Just Tidying Up (talk) 13:52, 6 June 2014 (UTC)

Kosilek is not legally married, this detail of re-marriage cannot be confirmed, and it's not really a pertinent detail that is especially noteworthy to Kosilek's overall biography.

If you can provide a second source confirming Kosilek's marriage to 'Jessica' (the source is so incomplete, 'Jessica' doesn't even have a surname!), then I will reincorporate it back into the article. Solntsa90 (talk) 19:33, 6 June 2014 (UTC)

EDIT: It has come to my attention that you're the primary contributor as well as the original author of the Kosilek article. You wouldn't happen to have a conflict of interest here, would you? I ask you in all sincerity. Solntsa90 (talk) 19:34, 6 June 2014 (UTC)

I am not "the original author" and I have no connection to the article subject beyond occasionally seeing articles in the news, same as any other person. I expanded the article because the article as it stood was not notable (there are thousands of murders, this one is sensational because of the "ooh it's a man in a dress" aspect). What actually makes this article notable is the legality of transgender health care for prisoners and the possible precedents this case sets. This was not very well described in the previous stub version.

Again, your personal definition of "marriage" as a legal union is not held by everyone, there were marriages long before there was a United States government to recognize them. The source is incomplete but this could be amended by changing the tone with regards to who made the statement. Just Tidying Up (talk) 22:31, 10 June 2014 (UTC)

You're making this way too personal, and I could care less about the details of the case: What I care about is the quality of the article and its factuality; Kosilek never married 'Jessica' (in quotations because we have no proof this person even exists!), and we're going by definitions that everyone can abide by, not by arbitrary definitions of marriage: No legal, religious nor cultural authority recognises nor sanctions a marriage between Kosilek and Jessica (who may not even exist), this isn't just about the US government.

The source isn't 'incomplete', its unverifiable and thus renders it WP:SELFPUB. Solntsa90 (talk) 03:52, 11 June 2014 (UTC)

Unfortunate terminological whitewashing on "Leon Klinghoffer"

The word "execution" mainly means a sentence carried out upon a person who has been convicted at a trial of a criminal offense, and therefore its use is completely inappropriate in this context. And throwing a man in a wheelchair over the side of a boat is a pure terrorist tactic, and nothing else. Some of your edits to the article might have merit individually, but as a group they are unfortunately overall unacceptable. AnonMoos (talk) 17:26, 27 June 2014 (UTC)

'Execution' means exactly what it means in this context. They condemned him for being a Jew. however, "Palestinian Terrorists" is truly a POV term, and I'll be working to get such a term on wikipedia as unacceptable, for where do you draw the line? when does 'atrocity' become 'terrorism'? Solntsa90 (talk) 18:10, 27 June 2014 (UTC)

Unfortunately for you, your first two sentences above are completely ridiculous and preposterous -- no trial under any recognized legal system took place, and being a Jew was not a crime even in Nazi Germany! "Terrorists" can be a controversial term when applied to indiscriminately and sweepingly condemn large diverse groupings with a checkered history extending over many decades -- but when applied to a small group like the Achille Lauro hijackers, a functional definition of "terrorist" (i.e. those who unblushingly commit despicable acts for the purpose of terrorizing) is much less controversial. "Terrorism is as terrorism does"... AnonMoos (talk) 20:16, 27 June 2014 (UTC)

When Sicarios in Mexico kill people, don't we use the term "executed"? I doubt many of them got a fair trial before being bludgeoned to death with a bat or beheaded. Solntsa90 (talk) 20:19, 27 June 2014 (UTC)

No, I don't believe that's the most common or typical usage. Journalists sometimes speak of "execution-style slayings", but that means a single bullet to the head by organized crime or death squads... AnonMoos (talk) 16:01, 28 June 2014 (UTC)
