Hi!

I've just taken a look at your article ASAIF - well done for making a good start here! There's some work needs to be done still, mainly on referencing. See this page for loads of help on that subject. I noticed that most of the references are to ASAIF's own literature; see if you can add some other external sources to the article. I also noticed that a lot of the references aren't in English, so these will really need to be replaced as soon as you can. Another thing which may need checking is that you haven't got your wording too close to the official literature - make usre that your writing is in your own words, or someone else may come along and delete it as a copyright violation!

Try to get on to these issues as soon as you can - and again, congratulations on a good start :o) Pesky (talk …stalk!) 03:26, 30 August 2011 (UTC)

I agree with Pesky - congratulations on starting a good article. I am proposing that the title of the article be changed from the acronym ASAIF to the comprehensive name Azerbaijani Students and Alumni International Forum. See the discussion on the Talk:ASAIF page. Dolphin (t) 04:08, 30 August 2011 (UTC)

I agree 80.99.70.238 (talk) 11:22, 31 August 2011 (UTC)

No problem, we can copy content of ASAIF into the comprehensive name Azerbaijani Students and Alumni International Forum. For now Azerbaijani Students and Alumni International Forum is redirected to ASAIF. We can do vice-versa.Konullu (talk) 11:33, 5 September 2011 (UTC)

The change has been made. See Azerbaijani Students and Alumni International Forum. Dolphin (t) 22:29, 6 September 2011 (UTC)

Hi, George Spurlin, idea of the articles Ramil Safarov and Extradition and pardon of Ramil Safarov are different from each other. While former should include the biography, trial, popularity reasons of Ramil Safarov (in other words, things that happened till his extradition), the latter should include only different aspects of Ramil's extradition, pardon (things that happened after extradition). Section called Reactions are copied from the article Ramil Safarov to the article Extradition and pardon of Ramil Safarov by other users. I think that information needs to be in the second article, while the first article should give only brief info about this and link to the second one, because the reactions happened after his extradition and pardon.

Hello, please be advised that terror is one of the words that Misplaced Pages tries to avoid, for more details see WP:WTA. George Spurlin (talk) 12:15, 7 September 2012 (UTC)

Hi, George Spurlin, I checked the link that you provided. I understand that the word terror can be avoided in some cases, but I do not see any other word to replace terror here. If the category which includes dozens of articles about terror attacks and they are done by Armenians, then why it can not be called Armenian terror? This is quite popular term in the world, searching Armenian terror in Google gives about 17,800,000 results (0.27 seconds) Therefore I think the category Armenian terror needs to be recovered with its full content. Sincelery, Konullu (talk) 17:17, 7 September 2012 (UTC)

Hi Konullu, since the category was deleted by a discussion, it can be recreated by a discussion, if you would like to start one, please go to Misplaced Pages:DRV#Steps_to_list_a_new_deletion_review. George Spurlin (talk) 09:29, 10 September 2012 (UTC)

Disambiguation link notification for September 8

Hi. Thank you for your recent edits. Misplaced Pages appreciates your help. We noticed though that when you edited Misak Torlakian, you added a link pointing to the disambiguation page Turks (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.
