for reverting his propoganda/POV. The guy is also very eager to insert the word "islamist", when in fact the Young Turks overthrew the caliphate and were against everything islamism stood for. This is just another ploy to attract the sympathies of Western(christian) readers and disparage Islam further. KSK 04:36, 16 April 2006 (UTC)

Thanks for informing me. I'll add the article to my watchlist and talk to the user if he reverts. Regards, =Nichalp «Talk»= 18:51, 16 April 2006 (UTC)
I don't know how to do that :s Chaldean 19:09, 16 April 2006 (UTC)
Why is Nichalp allowed to revert back to his version months after many tonnes of edits have been made and I am not allowed to revert back? Btw Nichalp's version contains glaring fatual errors such as independance date for Bhutan. Bhutan never was colonized, so how can it have an independence day? What exactly is his motivation? He can't accept the fact that his version isn't up there verbatim?
BTW I am from Bhutan so I would probably know more about Bhutan than him
I just revert, block, find all his socks, block them too, and block the open proxy he's using. If he persists in acting like Wik, then we need to make it very tiring for him. Jayjg (talk) 05:10, 17 April 2006 (UTC)
Greetings. Thanks for your welcoming. Actually I do need some help. I have started this stub about the Greek Author named Anestis Keramidas. I wanted the word "Keramidas" alone to lead to the same artikle (since ther is no other person named keramidas) but instead of this I made something wrong and now the word Keramidas leads to en empty page with another redirection to the right page (try it and you will see). Anyway could you show me how to fix it ( or if you know even fix it yourself?) Anyway happy Easter! (in Greece it is common to eat Lam on Sunday) panosfidis
Many thanks for your vote on my recent RFA, which passed narrowly. I will try to be worthy of your support. Regards, Kaisershatner 21:34, 17 April 2006 (UTC)
Since you reverted an anon's edit to a version that says that Tenzin Gyatso was born in a Mongour family, can you supply a cite for that claim? It seems quite plausible, but I don't see anything on the web which confirms it. Also, it contradicts the article on Yonten Gyatso, 4th Dalai Lama, which says that he was just about the only non-Tibetan Dalai Lama. - Nat Krause( Talk!) 23:46, 17 April 2006 (UTC)
I thought you reverted the changes of a few logical corrections while trying to revert the removal of the box. Therefore, I returned to Moldo's version (I don't think the referencing system was changed from your change to his), but I added the box that existed a few hours back. If I did something incorrectly I appologize. TSO1D 23:49, 17 April 2006 (UTC)
Hey dude what up? If you have time, can you fix the notes section on the India page. I kind of messed it up while doing my edits to shorten the page. If you have any edits in mind go for it as that page has now ballooned quite a bit. 'Afghan Historian' asked me to check it out and I did try to whittle it down. Much appreciated!

I recently received a warning about editing a page; I'm a bit confused though. I did edit the page on Iran. I deleted the line saying "Bomb Iran, bomb iran, bomb iran...". I thought I was actually helping the Wikipedia.
Hi. About Iranian ethnic minorities I was aware of the discussion in the Iran page but I did not know about this page which mentions persian jews as an ethnic minority. I was going to change it but I realized the last edit was yours and you added the Kurdish and Persian Jews. I thought it was decided that Persian Jews are not a different ethnic group. Am I wrong?

Hi there! I think my comment/reply on that talk page is sufficient. As well, this should be allayed (somewhat) by moving the article (as discussed on the Azarbaijan talk page) to Azarbaijan (Iran): I tried to do this earlier, but it seems the article has been restricted from being moved the usual way.

You should check out the debate over whether to delete the various categories of "Foreigners in Turkey"

Hi, thank you for the suggestions you made about internal/external links. I have a question related to this: I have started several articles, and a strange thing happens: sometimes when I search for them they come up, sometimes they don't ... If you have a minute, could you check out e. g. Hurmuzachi brothers, Eudoxiu Hurmuzachi and Cernauca. The link to Cernauca on the Chernivtsi page appears red, although it is spelled correctly, and I know the article is there, I even edited it today! Thank you, 01:44, 22 April 2006 (UTC) thank you for your help -- the Cernauca link was on the Bukovina page (sorry, my mistake), but I fixed it myself and it works now.

The article was devolving into chaos. What do you think about a separate article to list the tribes? I mean that section is probably the worst and the people who add tribes just add them arbitrarily anyway and I figure might as well keep this article looking better. Tombseye 23:17, 22 April 2006 (UTC)
Actually, I am not very familiar with the Kurds. I decided to take a break from editing today and learn a little and I chose this article to read. I found so many grammatical errors and style inconsistencies I just couldn't resist doing some editing.
It's funny you should mention NPOV because I notice there seem to be a lot of forced references to "Kurdistan" as a Nationalistic Homeland rather than the Kurdistan Autonomous Regions in Iran, Iraq, etc. I noticed you have done a lot of work on articles concerning Iran. Do you think this is a neutrality problem?
Also I noticed you are a member of the Counter-Vandalism Unit. I am interested in that as well. I spend considerable time reverting vandalism on the 200 or so articles on my watchlist. Are there other ways to monitor vandalism (on pages not on one's watchlist)? How can I become a member of the CVU and what would be the "duties" involved?

There are some anonymous user edits to Kurdish articles [6] and [7] injecting similar material in to Kurd-related article. The info seems to be sourced but I don't think its true.

No worries, Khoikhoi, and I tend to agree re the sockpuppetry, let's see if anything results. It is plausible at least that more than a few of the recent contributors there may be reincarnations of the perma-banned User:Bonaparte. These shenanigans have been going on for more than six months now, and despite acres of talk page debate seems to be no closer to settling down. Romanian diaspora is a bit of a POV fork as things stand, and needs to be reigned in a little. Will see if there's anything I can do. Cheers, -- cjllw | TALK 00:13, 24 April 2006 (UTC)

Hi Khoikhoi. You reverted the move of Shams Tabraiz to Shams Tabrizi, but that was a correct move. Apparently there was a typing mistake in the name of the article. Please see the talk page, the reason of confusion is probably that there are two persons, Shams Tabraiz and Shams Tabrizi, but that particular article was about Tabrizi, the name meaning that he was hailing from Tabriz in Iranian Azerbaijan. Maybe you can clarify that with other knowledgeable people, since there’s no response on the talk page of the article. Take care. Grandmaster 11:02, 26 April 2006 (UTC)

Hi, we meet again.

I saw your replies. So as per your book, looks like he gets leniency when he uses terms like soap box, sock puppet army etc. If he is frustrated, then he should have also been less caustic - I am not saying the people who went about correcting him were civil. But my main viewpoint that he be civil too, still stands. And more to the point, he was subtly promoting a sectarian agenda. And what is with the hostility against Skyscrapercity forum? I visit that forum occassionally, but he alleges that there is a conspiracy going on there. Well, I am yet to see any discussion on this topic. And doesnt that constitute imputing motives on people? So is there a heirarchy system here wherein some people are "considered more truthful than others" ? Harig 02:55, 27 April 2006 (UTC)

LOL, of course I wont get mad at you, what did you think? I may appear prickly, but I will not lose my senses and call you say a "sock puppet" etc. I always try to be civil (never uses four letter words, even in real life) and that is why I was probing you when you were saying I was too uncivil, whereas all I did was use turn back that fella's arguments on him. But you haven't answered the conspiracy theory allegation :P Anyway, on with life. ciao!! Harig 03:23, 27 April 2006 (UTC)

I'm afraid I'm not seeing the POV-pushing, although it's entirely possible that I might be missing something. "The only country that recognizes the TRNC is Turkey, although since the late 1990's, the Nakhichevan Autonomous Republic, an exclave of Azerbaijan, came to recognize it as well." is a terribly badly written sentence, and as far as I can see, the anon's text just rewords this to say the same thing - that the two entities recognise the TRNC.

I always suspected that User:Retau was a sockpuppet of Diyako/Xebat, but now I'm almost certain.

Terminology in US and British Commonwealth jurisprudence sometimes differs slightly and no doubt this is the cause of this person's confusion; as I mentioned in my response, the original statement isn't actually "odd," but his confusion is honest and would no doubt be shared by others. So I have removed the ambiguity, which hadn't previously occurred to me, coming out of a British Commonwealth legal background myself. Masalai 06:26, 29 April 2006 (UTC)
Hi Jmabel,
The Persian Jews article was unprotected today, but a full-scale edit war has resumed again. Can you please protect it again before the situation escalates? Thanks. — Khoikhoi 06:37, 29 April 2006 (UTC)
This article's getting some much needed improvement. Feel free to do the same to the Iranian peoples page as well. By the way I could not help but notice the problem regarding the Persian Jews article. One thing about the article, shouldn't it have an ethnic info box rather than a religious portal (or at least in addition to a religious portal or is it just me? I'd bet that the Persians Jews are more related to other Persians than to Jews from other parts of the world given genetic tests on Jews in general. Tombseye 07:38, 29 April 2006 (UTC)
Hey. I'm not able to decide which version to protect as I don't have the time to go through the edit war history. Is there a version that some admin has chosen earlier for protection? If so, I can rely on that admin's judgment. Else, I can only protect the current version of which I have no idea. I'm sorry about such a response. -- Sundar \ talk \ contribs 08:08, 29 April 2006 (UTC)

Hi, I wonder what makes diff. between now known as Çukurova and Today it is known in Turkish as Çukurova.. Additionally, I will split these two articles, Çukurova and Cilicia I mean, as seperate articles, like İstanbul and Costan. -- TuzsuzDeliBekir 10:56, 29 April 2006 (UTC)
Hi!
I saw your comments on the Citric acid page, and checked out your user page. You might like to add the South African Farmer Murders page to your watchlist, as it is frequently a target for racists. -- Slashme 12:03, 29 April 2006 (UTC)
(Fixing refs) Thanks! I was still going to get around to that, but who knows when? -- Slashme 19:04, 29 April 2006 (UTC)
Thanks for the support on my RFA. Unfortunately, it did not achieve consensus. I look forward to your support in a couple months when I apply again. Holler at me if you need anything. ⇒ SWATJester Ready Aim Fire! 19:23, 29 April 2006 (UTC)
I forgot to log in and I changed the article Frisian language to say that Frisian is the most similar living language to English but you reverted me. Here is an entry from dictionary.com whose source is the American Heritage Dictionary.
Fri·sian (frzhn, frzhn) also Frie·sian (frzhn)
n.
A native or inhabitant of the Frisian Islands or Friesland. The West Germanic language of the Frisians. It is the language most closely related to English.
[From Latin Frsi, the Frisians, of Germanic origin.]
Frisian adj.

It says what I meant. Here is another entry of the same source.
Scots (skts)
adj.
Scottish. See Usage Note at Scottish.
n.
The dialect of English used in the Lowlands of Scotland.
[Middle English scottis, variant of scottisc, Scottish, from Scotte, sing. of Scottes, Scotsmen. See Scot.]
It does say Scots is a dialect of English. This dictionary even has entries for Scots words. Here are some examples.
for lang (fourth entry)
for hoot (first)
for auld (first)
for syne (first)
for loch (second)
for lallans (first)
I have seen that Wikipedia has a Scots edition to make it easier for readers of the Scots dialect but that also does not make it a different language. The article Scots language should have a different name. Tim Q. Wells 20:40, 29 April 2006 (UTC)
LOL... it was u who added it?:p. anyway, it is clearly false (maybe if it was named 'former distribution of Turkish people in the balkans and anatolia' if would be true, since i know from first hand that there were many turks, at least in Thessaly, till 1923). Be more careful my friend:) -- Hectorian 02:17, 30 April 2006 (UTC)

The pages I created receontly are Serge Sarkissian, Samvel Babayan, Mineclearance agencies. I search for them in Wikisearch and can't find. The pages exist because when I click go into goes stright to the page. But neither Wikisearch nor Google can find the pages by the page name. may be I need to add a tag or a code to the page or somtheing?
Hey have you seen [16]? What do you think? if independance templates are going to be deleted like that then there should be a rule to generalise across? -- - K a s h Talk | email 13:16, 30 April 2006 (UTC)
Merhaba birader! It was me who removed those lines. Because the whole section was about the historical usage of the name and it seemed odd to me to have that part. In fact, there is a link to Kurds in Turkey in the See also section Behemoth 18:36, 30 April 2006 (UTC)

Somehow I doubt that'll convince the nationalist types. Basically though, it's absurd to imagine that there is ZERO relationship with ones neighbors, whereas the Greeks are listed as a related people?! It's insane. Tombseye 02:18, 1 May 2006 (UTC)
