Sources for the correct translation of Great Romanain Party

Please read the talk page before doing reverts. I already pointed my sources there, including a link to the Romanian Parliament website. Additionally, since I am a Romanian native speaker I am myself able to confirm the correct translation and meaning. -Paul- 08:33, 12 November 2006 (UTC)

Name of Thes/niki; Wiki Policies Question

Hi Khoikhoi. Thank you for your attention to the Thessaloniki name issue here. I am a bit put off by discussion that seems to be mocking in tone (I guess I've just learned what wikistress is). I am also a new user. What Wiki policies should I read up on for do's and don't's? About how to handle conflict? Some of my edits are in places (not just Thessaloniki) where there seem to be real disputes. Jd2718 13:04, 7 November 2006 (UTC)

Kurdish people

Hiya Khoikhoi,

I have no idea about Kurdish history, but this pattern of people introducing unsourced, controversial edits & then being reverted doesn't bode well. Not sure if/how I can help. Best regards, --Ling.Nut 13:04, 7 November 2006 (UTC)

Thanks for your vigilance on Kurdish people. I wanted to ask you about the language of your poem. I know it isn't Vlach, it's much closer to Spanish, and you say it's from Bulgaria--Is it Ladino? --Anthon.Eff 19:21, 7 November 2006 (UTC)

Thanks

You might want to give him a level 4 warning for his edit and previous edits. Just a suggestion.Diez2 22:01, 7 November 2006 (UTC)

The New Zealand article

Hi, Khoi. I know that you've really been around the block here, so I'll ask: Do you know anything about the New Zealand or Australia articles (i.e., disputes, trolls, editing styles, etc.)? Do you keep those or related pages on your watchlist? Have you noticed any differences in styles among editors from different regions (i.e., how do Indians compare to Turks or to Aussies or Kiwis)? Is there more "clanishness" or insularity among certain groups? Thanks. Saravask 00:25, 8 November 2006 (UTC)

Hey, thanks anyway. Saravask 14:44, 11 November 2006 (UTC)

Hephthalites

OK, I'll try. But could you please do me a favour and have a professional' and neutral look as an admin on the nonsense some users are writing in the article Hephthalites.

It's sad that you critisize us, but stay quite when leading Western scholars are insulted, and authoritative scholarly sources are dumped as "dogmatic and nationalistic".

Tājik 02:32, 8 November 2006 (UTC)

All sources are given in the article. The dispute is about the uncivilized manner of a few users who constantly remove other sources than those that only support their view. The Encyclopaedia Iranica and the Encyclopaedia of Islam are insulted as being dogmatic and nationalistic, and leading scholars, such as Prof. Frye, Prof. Enoki (THE leading expert on the Hephthalites), and Prof. A.D.H. Bivar (author of the article Hephthalites in Iranica) are dumped as Persian nationalists. THIS is hillarious.

Britannica does not give any information about the origin of the Hephthalites, the Columbia Encyclopaedia claims that they were "either Turkic or Tibetian". However, these two articles are not written by experts. The most authoritative works, meaning Enoki's "On the origins of the Hephthalites" (1955) and Frye's "The Heritage of Central Asia", describe the Hephthalites as an ethnically mixed confederation, ruled by an Iranian-speaking elite. The same information is given in Iranica and Encyclopaedia of Islam.

The mentioned users, however, delete all of these sources and simply copy and paste paragraphs from Britannica and CE into the article, further claiming that Enoki (a Japanese professor), Frye (an American professor), and the entire EI and EIr are dogmatic and Persian nationalistic. Just check his last edit.

An interesting fact of life

Hi. If you remember the incidents on Talk:Mircea Eliade and Talk:Islam in Romania: User:Timor Stultorum is currently "replaced" by User:Timur Stultorum... And User:Azotlichid appears to be their twin brother... Dahn 20:11, 8 November 2006 (UTC)

Hi and thanks for the reply. It appears that a reply of his on User talk:PelleSmith ("One more thing, PelleSmith: being myself a Romanian, I think of having a quite good understanding of that sort of compatriots like dahn: consciously or not, they interpret perfect urbanity like yours as a sign of weakness. Look at the way dahn is rushing you on the Eliade matter.") is similar to the insults on my page. It also looks to me like they have the same way of constructing a phrase. I'll see about running it through the system, and thanks for the suggestion. Dahn 13:46, 11 November 2006 (UTC)

Opinion please

I've formulated a proposal and need to know what other people think about it. See User:NikoSilver/Disputed regions - Summary style (and click talk for your comments). The proposal is a result of a lengthy debate/poll in Template talk:Countries of Europe, but it extends obviously beyond Europe, so I made a subpage before I post it in WP:VPP. Thanks. •NikoSilver• 23:00, 8 November 2006 (UTC)

User:Erxnmedia's edits in Atatürk article

As you've already realized, this user tries to attach links to genocide articles without any reference or proper mention of Atatürk's involvement in the article. I left a comment on User talk:Erxnmedia, but I'm not sure he would get my point. Could you please try to take care of this issue? And he recently called the revert of his edits as "vandalism" and put the page in protected status, which I didn't even know could be done by a non-admin. I regret that I still haven't reply to your question about an anon's edits in the Turkish language infobox. I will hopefully look into the matter soon.

Spain

The only thing I'm trying to "prove" is that "Spain" is pertinent to articles on Spanish autonomous communities... who could refute that? Another user deleted that entry, prioritizing uniformity to pertinency...

If you find this issue "pointless", why did you delete my "pointless" change? Sure you don't think this is pointless for any reason.

Regards

Lquiroga 01:42, 9 November 2006 (UTC)

Hello: the "standard criterion" that supports your change (a reference mentioned in the "Intro" section must not appear in "see also" section) is not met by other references in that same page (references that Asterion didn't delete, you guys don't act based on the same principles). Other prominent pages like the "United States" article don't meet this principle (please, take a look at it).

Please let me know which is the Misplaced Pages standard on this point, if there is any, to solve this issue.

Regards

Lquiroga 10:39, 9 November 2006 (UTC)

The United States article (or the New York article) are examples of articles in which references included in the "intro" are also listed in the "see also" section, and nobody corrected that. As I see, there is no any standard to design the "see also" section of an article, and that shows me how arbitrary was Asterion deleting that entry and how arbitrary is Misplaced Pages.

Rebecca Cummings

You have previously edited the Rebbecca Cummings article. The article has been put up for deletion. I would like your unbiased input on the article at Misplaced Pages:Articles for deletion/Rebecca Cummings. Along with the discussion on the deletion page you can find information and discussions on this at Talk:Rebecca Cummings.

She may not be the most notable person on Misplaced Pages but she fits the notability criteria from the Misplaced Pages guideline Misplaced Pages:Notability (pornographic actors). Her notability is listed in her article and restated at Misplaced Pages:Articles for deletion/Rebecca Cummings.

See the corresponding talk page. What's your opinion about the last proposal? Jahangard 02:43, 10 November 2006 (UTC)

Could you please take a look again (also see the article and its recent history)? It seems that nobody cares about the inconsistencies of the article. Jahangard 07:04, 11 November 2006 (UTC)

Hmmm, maybe we should follow the definitions from other sources, like this for example. What do you think? Khoikhoi 22:02, 11 November 2006 (UTC)

That page is not usefull for us (it's just a disambiguation page and we have a more complete disambiguation page here). Also, you should note that websites such as http://www.thefreedictionary.com and http://www.answers.com/ jus copy whatever they find (mostly pages of Misplaced Pages). Because of that, their content is almost the same as Misplaced Pages (with a delay). Jahangard 03:21, 14 November 2006 (UTC)

Maps

You around? I think I have a solution to the edit wars on the maps...

Use the current version I uploaded, the dispute seems to be grey area not the actual location, so by removing the grey, all involved are happy. I am sure I can get David on board with this too.--MCMLXXI 02:54, 11 November 2006 (UTC)

Okay great, glad we can agree, I'll let David know on WikiDE, I'll go ahead and change AZN and GEO too., as for me I am just a friendly wikignome ;) I use differnt names on each Wiki, spend most of my time in Commons and Simple English Wiki--MCMLXXI 03:05, 11 November 2006 (UTC)

Hey Khoi, got a question for you. How come you uploaded both this and this? As near as I can tell, they're exactly the same thing. --InShaneee 17:12, 10 November 2006 (UTC)

That's kind of bad practice; 'duplicate' is actually a Speedy Deletion criteria. Mind getting rid of one? --InShaneee 04:35, 11 November 2006 (UTC)

Armenia strawpoll

NB This poll has now closed, it being Friday 10th November and about 10.30am where I live. The numbers are as follows:

• Support 6 (although User:Hamparzoum's existence has been disputed by User:Tekleni.
• Neutral 1.
• Oppose 10.

As such, no mandate has appeared for making the requested changes to the article. As previously advertised, Caligvla and I are taking a break from this dispute for a week. After this, the case may be taken to the mediation cabal, although I hope to avoid this eventuality. Walton monarchist89 10:40, 10 November 2006 (UTC)

Azadeh Moaveni again

Hi KhoiKhoi. Azadeh Moaveni's page was vandalized again. This time by a user using a similar name as yours. He was blocked too. I would suggest that we put this site under a semi-protection. What do you think about it? Shabdiz 13:28, 10 November 2006 (UTC)

OK, I agree. You are right, compared to some other pages and what I read here and there, this seems to be minor. Thanks.Shabdiz 15:32, 11 November 2006 (UTC)

Editing protected pages

While I agree with your recent edit removing "Romanians" from the List of unrecognized countries, you might want to look at this: Misplaced Pages:Protection_policy#Editing_protected_pages. In essence, by editing substance in a protected article you are forcing your point of view on the majority of editors who can't edit protected pages, which generally should not be done. _└  / _talk  18:54, 10 November 2006 (UTC)

Hey, don't be sorry—I've been tempted to do it myself. Well, I've been tempted to revert to the version I like and then protect, which is even worse. =) _└  / _talk  19:04, 10 November 2006 (UTC)

User:Outerlimits

Hello my friend. This user is vandalizing two articles: LGBT rights in Iran and Human rights in Islamic Republic of Iran through "sneaky vandalism" and ignoring other peoples edits (such as one valid point raised by Gbambino). These articles are already not neutral, but the first one is the worst in terms of intentionally defaming and degrading Iran and Iranian peoples and Iranian civilization. It is a million miles away from neutral. Please do what you can to restore some sanity here. Khaili mamnoon. Khorshid 11:10, 11 November 2006 (UTC)

Protected page: Iranian Azerbaijan

Hi Thanks for the welcome message. I was wondering if adminstarators can apply a POV by protecting an article on a given time. For instance, as regards "Iranian Azerbaijan" article, the arian theory about the origins of Azeris is being protected while there are other theories as well. I don't care about the racial origins but I don't like to see a POV being protected.--Faucon7 22:07, 13 November 2006 (UTC)

Its not POV. The only POV thing about it was the external links that were added under the name "South Azerbaijan" which is fictitious and an invention of the 1930's/40's of the Soviets.Khosrow II 01:12, 12 November 2006 (UTC)

Hi Khosrow ... it seems you are following all my contributions, ok I am happy to have audience(lol). Well you know, we will not always accept that what we are expressing is our POV. I agree that there is not much genetical differences between persians and azerbaijanis (both northern and southern),(some people do not agree). Neither Azerbaijanis are pure turks nor persians pure arians. This land has been a crossroad of ethnicities and the result is a mixture. But one should concede that Azeris have a different idendity as distinct from persians. Any denial of this fact will amount to assimilation. Ans as an Iranian Azerbaijanian let me say the cultural simmilarities between me and a north azerbaijanian is much more than those between me and a persian. This fact can not be a justification for seperatist policies. The time when nationalities were based on ethnicity and race has long gone. We can live within the same borders as long as we accept the differences we have, as long as we accept eachother the way we are.--Faucon7 22:04, 13 November 2006 (UTC)

Oh, boy, here we go again. First of all, I am not following your edits, I have several pages on my watchlist. Secondly, There is no such thing as a North Azerbaijan and a South Azerbaijan. Throughout history, there has only been one Azerbaijan, Iranian Azerbaijan. You as an Iranian Azerbaijani should know your own history. Secondly, the people in the R. of Azerbaijan and Iranian Azeri's, the real Azeri's, do not have anything in common except language, the history of Iran, and Iranian Culture. Persians and Azeri's have more in common than Azeri's do with other Turks. Culturally, Azeri's are still Iranics. Just because their language changed does not mean the people changed. I have done lots of research regarding Azerbaijan's history, if you have anything more to discuss, or any questions, please feel free to ask on my talk page (so we dont bother khoikhoi). You must know your history, and you must not be fooled with historical revisionism and politics. Please feel free to ask. (Also, I am no joke, I actually have researched the history a lot. I have read historical texts, I have read many sources, including unclassified Soviet documents, etc... Everything I know comes from reliable Western, medieval, and ancient sources)Khosrow II 00:09, 14 November 2006 (UTC)

I was actually referring to Karcha, not Faouvan (which seems to be a good editor). Karcha is really being a nuisance, now he is trying to change the Rumi article, and look at the Turkish langauge page, I changed to English so that it would make more sense (before it seemed like it was saying that Greece, Bulgaria, etc... all spoke Turkish) and he reverted me...

Userboxes

Hi Khoi. Can you please have a look at the pages of User:Óðinn and User:Dimts? Their userboxes contain attacks on a living person, Mikheil Saakashvili, and violates Wiki policy on WP:USER and WP:LIVING, IMHO. I asked one of these users to express his political sympathies and antipathies without offending the President of Georgia but he refused to follow my advice. Despite politics, and the tension that is on at the moment, I think provocative and divisive actions such as those should be avoided. Thanks, Kober 09:58, 12 November 2006 (UTC)

Howdy Khoi. I think I will leave them alone. This userbox portrays these users very well. They specialize in slamming Georgia, especially Dimts, an author of this xenophobic userbox, who has not made any significant contribution to Misplaced Pages, but specifically attacks Georgia related talk pages. Thanks,--Kober 05:20, 13 November 2006 (UTC)

Thanks a lot, Khoi. Trying my best...:) --Kober 05:35, 13 November 2006 (UTC)

Greeting, Khoikhoi. Since you find the idea of somebody running around WP and senselessly accusing you of being a POV pusher to be amusing, you will surely laugh with me at our friend Kober, who is quick to do exactly that against anyone with the audacity to criticize his political idol. Now, since you claim to understand what he is saying, perhaps you could kindly explain to me and User:Dimts how is the userbox in question xenophobic? Unless Saakashvili is some sort of holy embodiment of Georgian spirit, requiring everyone to cower while as much as thinking of him, the concept totally escapes me.

Yep, I have one Hungarian friend who was living in Romania before coming here. She's also quite nice. Atilim Gunes Baydin 00:42, 13 November 2006 (UTC)

You are starting to act really silly. The "proud to be Romanian tag" when you have an anti-Romanian bias just proves that.Dapiks 01:44, 13 November 2006 (UTC)

Sure you are. And by the way nice way of suggesting about "doing something about this guy (Constantzeanu)" to Mikka. Very wikipedia-like. For sure that's how an admin is supposed to act like.Dapiks 01:48, 13 November 2006 (UTC)

How should an admin act? Well for starters an admin should not take sides. Secondly if you do have a biased, at least refrain from participating in these articles since obviously you cannot mediate. Thirdly, an admin should not plan with another admin to "do something with this guy" just because you do not agree that "your actions to provide false sources are shameful". That is not wikipedia-like. And fourthly, an admin should not have a negative attitude towards an ethnic group, should not come up with false sources just to push his pov. Should i continue?Dapiks 01:56, 13 November 2006 (UTC)

block

You blocked User:172GAL for three days, why? I read blocking policy, this is not suitable(Please clarify if I am wrong).

• Your block is not suitable since he attacked to yourself.
• This is a very light penalty. Ask for another admin for permanent block or much longer (atleast).

Of course I know his/her comments before my first message, I mean you were subject to that message also.Those words cannot be acceptable ones in anyway.It would be more suitable if another admin blocked that uncivil person permanently.
