Hi there.
First of all, I wanted to ask if you could send me the passages of text within the citations for your edits on Botushë? I'd be very interested to read them after translating them myself, as none in the village have ever recounted the presence of Serbs in general, even in folk legends. The investment from Stefan Decanski himself is also pretty intriguing.
Also, in reference to your edit https://en.wikipedia.org/?title=Erenik&oldid=1049631050 and the description that followed, I want to clarify; in Albanian - the official language in Kosovo that is used by the overwhelming majority of the population - these are the terms used not only by the people, but by the government as well. So yes, they are indeed the official names. However, you are right in using the official, neutral English term as this is English Wikipedia after all. Botushali ( talk) 13:07, 13 October 2021 (UTC)
Please do not remove content or templates from pages on Wikipedia, as you did to Prilep, Kosovo, without giving a valid reason for the removal in the edit summary. Your content removal does not appear to be constructive and has been reverted. If you only meant to make a test edit, please use your sandbox for that. Thank you.

His leadership became associated with numerous human tragedies and acts of violence during the breakup of Yugoslavia.The caption does not relate to the text in any manner as "numerous human tragedies and acts of violence" are not discussed in the text in any manner. The caption also states that Slobodan Milosevic was
a prominent political figure in the former Yugoslavia, this too is incorrect as I am not sure how Slobodan Milosevic takes more prominence over Josip Broz Tito. I am not offended by the image, the issue I have is that it adds zero value to the page, with the image caption bordering on POV pushing. Unfortunately, the contributor who added the photo didn't bother to create a talk page discussion and thus, a healthy discussion could not have taken place.

On the demographic history of Kosovo for the 17th century why did you remove the account of Evliya Celebi ?
"In 1660 Çelebi went to Kosovo and referred to the central part of the region as Arnavud (آرناوود) and noted that in Vushtrri its inhabitants were speakers of Albanian or Turkish and few spoke Bosnian. The highlands around the Tetovo, Peja and Prizren areas Çelebi considered as being the "mountains of Arnavudluk". Çelebi referred to the "mountains of Peja" as being in Arnavudluk (آرناوودلق) and considered the Ibar river that converged in Mitrovica as forming Kosovo's border with Bosnia. He viewed the "Kılab" or Llapi river as having its source in Arnavudluk (Albania) and by extension the Sitnica as being part of that river. Çelebi also included the central mountains of Kosovo within Arnavudluk."
So he included Western and Central Kosovo and the Llapi river in north-east Kosovo as Albania in the 1660's. Also the towns were mainly Albanian as noted by Malcolm and other sources of that time such as Prishtina, Prizren, Peja, (Gjakova most probably too), Vushtrri too. (You also had Albanians in the town of Novo Brdo, Janjeva etc.)
/info/en/?search=Evliya_%C3%87elebi , the part about Western Kosovo being Albanian speaking in the 17th century that has been quoted has been written wrong, it's about Catholic minorities in Kosovo and that the Catholics in Western Kosovo spoke Albanian, the ones in most of Eastern Kosovo spoke Serbo-Croat , it's about Catholics whom at that time were a minority from Catholic sources, not a demographic discription as a whole if you actually look at the book.
Also why did you remove the 20,000 Albanians and the 5,000 Muslim Albanians that revolted . The quote from Jagodic is a unreliable source and out of context, he is the same one who claims there was a forcible settlement of Albanians in the Toplica (we also know there were movements there in general) but if you actually look at registers and placenames it was inhabited by Albanians from before. Also many Slavs moved into the Nish and Kosovo area after 1690 too, they came from areas like Montenegro , Serbia etc.
Also where is the evidence the 30k-40k Serb refugees came from Kosovo ? Nowhere is there any mention of all the refugees coming from there, in fact most of the refugees listed came from Serbia, Montenegro etc, Pandemics and killings by Ottoman-Tatar troops took peoples lives too or people returned . The towns which had mainly an Albanian population lost considerable part of their population also. TheCreatorOne ( talk) 12:46, 9 February 2024 (UTC)
Dude you are telling a completely false version of Kosovos history , I don't know how on earth someone like you is allowed to be an admin here, or any of these other Serbs for that matter and call actual historical evidence as nationalistic nonsense, what you are spreading is nationalistic nonsense, dude. how can you even live with yourself ? Dude, the books I quoted are historian and from Austrian military archives and from Ottoman archives that , there is nothing that supports your version of history, it is nothing but an invented fairytale ... you literally removed the sources that say the people that revolted were Albanians, you removed the sources of various travellers that included it as part of Albania etc, you even removed about the second battle of Kosovo 1448 , because you are pathetic, you should be banned from here you nut job .... I have never in my life seen such false history of Kosovo. You low life pathetic losers. It is well known Kosovo didn't get an Albanian majority until mid 19th century when Albanians were expelled from Sanjak of Nish, not 18th century. You pathetic low life scum. The books of Malcolm and Anscombe that have been used is not even what they say. History is not on your side when it comes to Kosovo you degenerate scums, once you start telling the true history of this place you obviously see this is not your land. You remove anything that is a threat to your agenda despite it based on factual and historical evidence yet spread your nationalistic nonsense fairytales about a great migration of Serbs, something that literally has no evidence as also pointed out by both Anscombe and Malcolm. TheCreatorOne ( talk) 17:22, 11 February 2024 (UTC)
You should be reported and definitely removed from the moderator position. What you and other members here are spreading is false history of course. And nationalistic nonsense that is not supported by any historical sources. It is ironic I was reverted when what I wrote in the Kosovo section is actually based on historical sources. There is no evidenc of any great migration , it is a fairytale as pointed out by Malcolm. Also if we look at the demographic situation of Kosovo prior to that right before these events, Orthodox Serbs were a minority in Western-Central Kosovo , in the towns and the Llapi area. This is also based on sources from that time. Many Serbs also moved into Kosovo in the 18th century and onwards. TheCreatorOne ( talk) 14:05, 16 March 2024 (UTC)
Hi. Thank you for your recent edits. An automated process has detected that when you recently edited Junik, you added a link pointing to the disambiguation page Ottomans. Such links are usually incorrect, since a disambiguation page is merely a list of unrelated topics with similar titles. (Read the FAQ • Join us at the DPL WikiProject.)
