Hello, George Spurlin, and welcome to Misplaced Pages! Thank you for your contributions. I hope you like the place and decide to stay. Unfortunately, one or more of the pages you created, such as Elmar Valiyev, may not conform to some of Misplaced Pages's guidelines, and may soon be deleted.

Proposed deletion of Elmar Valiyev

The article Elmar Valiyev has been proposed for deletion because under Misplaced Pages policy, all biographies of living persons created after March 18, 2010, must have at least one source that directly supports material in the article.

If you created the article, please don't take offense. Instead, consider improving the article. For help on inserting references, see Misplaced Pages:Referencing for beginners or ask at Misplaced Pages:Help desk. Once you have provided at least one reliable source, you may remove the {{prod blp}} tag. Please do not remove the tag unless the article is sourced. If you cannot provide such a source within ten days, the article may be deleted, but you can request that it be undeleted when you are ready to add one. Baseball Watcher 22:49, 25 May 2011 (UTC)

Warning

I am sure, being an experienced user with a new user account, you're well aware of WP:AA2 but I'll post it here for you anyway. Please refreain from edit-warring. Thank you. Tuscumbia (talk) 14:08, 15 December 2011 (UTC)

Seriously, the sockpuppet accusations are getting old, continue and I will report you. As for AA2 link, thanks, I didn't know that. Looks like you've been topic banned 3 times already. Don't you think that's indication that you should lay off the nationalistic "NKR doesn't exist" line? --George Spurlin (talk) 01:57, 17 December 2011 (UTC)

Actually, the sockpuppet activity of many Armenian users is getting old. Please do feel free to report anywhere. You're risking to be found as sockpuppet of a particular user. There is no reason to pretend to not know about WP:AA2. I've heard that from (now) blocked users many times while they were at the same stages as you are now. Tuscumbia (talk) 20:20, 19 December 2011 (UTC)

If you're so sure that I'm a sockpuppet, why haven't you filed a report yet? --George Spurlin (talk) 08:43, 21 December 2011 (UTC)

There is a timing for that as well. Don't you worry. Tuscumbia (talk) 14:39, 21 December 2011 (UTC)

Can you at least tell me who's sockpuppet you think I am? --George Spurlin (talk) 11:21, 28 December 2011 (UTC)

Discussion on Agdam Mosque

Hi George Spurlin. I kindly ask you not to do any reverts in article Agdam Mosque without reaching consensus in talk page. --Verman1 (talk) 15:40, 17 December 2011 (UTC)

Hi Verman1, I kindly ask you not to remove sources in the Agdam Mosque article. --George Spurlin (talk) 02:57, 18 December 2011 (UTC)

I think, you need to rephrase your words. I removed misleading information from the article. See the relevant discussion in the talk page. --Verman1 (talk) 10:42, 18 December 2011 (UTC)

What part of it do you think is misleading? --George Spurlin (talk) 20:03, 18 December 2011 (UTC)

note

FYI: . Winterbliss (talk) 03:12, 28 December 2011 (UTC) Thanks, I left my two cents. --George Spurlin (talk) 11:11, 28 December 2011 (UTC)

Disambiguation link notification

Hi. When you recently edited Murovdag, you added a link pointing to the disambiguation page Armenian (check to confirm | fix with Dab solver). 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.

It's OK to remove this message. Also, to stop receiving these messages, follow these opt-out instructions. Thanks, DPL bot (talk) 10:18, 31 December 2011 (UTC)

General Sanctions

The Arbitration Committee has permitted administrators to impose discretionary sanctions (information on which is at Misplaced Pages:Arbitration Committee/Discretionary sanctions) on any editor who is active on pages broadly related to Armenia-Azerbaijan and related conflicts. Discretionary sanctions can be used against an editor who repeatedly or seriously fails to adhere to the purpose of Misplaced Pages, any expected standards of behavior, or any normal editorial process. If you continue with the behavior on Murovdag, you may be placed under sanctions, which can include blocks, a revert limitation, or an article ban. The Committee's full decision can be read in the Misplaced Pages:Requests for arbitration/Armenia-Azerbaijan 2#Final decision section of the decision page. 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.

Going back and adding disputed information right after the article comes off of protection for edit warring is bad form and won't be tolerated. You need to step back from what is starting to appear to be tendentious editing or you'll be subject to sanctions on your editing. Discuss proposed changes on the talk page, cite your sources, and work to build a consensus. --WGFinley (talk) 19:14, 2 January 2012 (UTC)
