As part of the WikiProject Good Articles, we're doing sweeps to go over all of the current GAs and see if they still meet the GA criteria and I'm specifically going over all of the "Culture and Society" articles. I have reviewed Pornography in the United States and believe the article currently meets the majority of the criteria and should remain listed as a Good article. In reviewing the article, I have found there are several issues that need to be addressed, and I'll leave the article on hold for seven days for them to be fixed. I have left this message on your talk page since you have significantly edited the article (based on using this article history tool). Please consider helping address the several points that I listed on the talk page of the article, which shouldn't take too long to fix with the assistance of multiple editors. I have also left messages on the talk pages of a few other editors and a related WikiProject to spread the workload around some. If you have any questions, let me know on my talk page and I'll get back to you as soon as I can. -- Nehrams2020 ( talk) 03:22, 26 June 2008 (UTC)
A
proposed deletion template has been added to the article
Atlantis Reef, suggesting that it be deleted according to the proposed deletion process. All contributions are appreciated, but this article may not satisfy Wikipedia's
criteria for inclusion, and the deletion notice should explain why (see also "
What Wikipedia is not" and
Wikipedia's deletion policy). You may prevent the proposed deletion by removing the {{
dated prod}}
notice, but please explain why you disagree with the proposed deletion in your edit summary or on
its talk page.
Please consider improving the article to address the issues raised because even though removing the deletion notice will prevent deletion through the proposed deletion process, the article may still be deleted if it matches any of the speedy deletion criteria or it can be sent to Articles for Deletion, where it may be deleted if consensus to delete is reached. Donald Albury 15:12, 1 August 2008 (UTC)
Yes, I have the version of My Immortal that happens to be the same as in the video, which I downloaded on LimeWire. It depends on where you downloaded your version, because both are on LimeWire, although I would think if it's on iTunes it wouldn't be hard to find the version you're looking for. -- Crackthewhip775 ( talk) 19:43, 31 October 2008 (UTC)
People want to delete this article, Siege of Gordium, because virtualy no sources exist for the event. Please go to the deletion page of this article, and explain to them why it should not be delete, because I checked and found out. You added Siege of Gordium to Alexanders battles template (therefore you are the original creator), I created it by adding a sentence from the unsourced sentence in the Gordium article. If you have any sources for this siege, now is the time to display them on the article, I tried to find sources, and I could not find any either, thank you.-- Ariobarza ( talk) 00:20, 17 November 2008 (UTC)Ariobarza talk
Hi Brand, given this award you gave to Adil Baguirov, especially for the talkpage of NK, I think it is safe to affirm you find what he wrote in the talkpage which was dismissing Armenian history and turning anything Armenian as Albanian, worthy of an award. If you are so concerned with accuracy, you'll stop using dubious sources like using the Azerbaijan Soviet Encyclopedia to add claims on Wikipedia which are contradicted by official sources. Here for instance, not only you are at fault in translating the title of the source used as if it was published in English but you even claim him having received the Jawaharlal Nehru Award in 1969. From the awards official site in 1969 it was Mother Teresa who received it. Obviously this was fixed, but reverted by Grandmaster who claimed that maybe there was more than one awardee, when there is indeed only one awardee per year. This is one example of the inaccuracies you perpetuate on Wikipedia and I just had the occasion to tell it to you to show you that you are in no position to question the credibility of the sources when you seem to use worst quality but given the amount of articles you create about Azerbaijan it is almost impossible to follow them and correct them.
As for that quote from Anderson, this is what Britannica writes: A few native Armenian rulers survived for a time in the Kiurikian kingdom of Lori, the Siuniqian kingdom of Baghq or Kapan, and the principates of Khachen (Artzakh) and Sasun. The New Encyclopedia Britannica by Robert MacHenry, Encyclopaedia Britannica, inc, Robert MacHenry, (1993) p.761. Those are still there, word by word in the 2008 Ultimate edition DVD. Several other sources have been provided. Grandmaster is actually not denying this, but is claiming that the Meliks were not totally independent to justify its removal. The map is therefore not inaccurate for the purpose of its use, which is to show where those principalities were. All this debate is a total waste of time. - Fedayee ( talk) 23:28, 27 November 2008 (UTC)
I saw your interest in developing such work. Do you feel it would fit better under a language project or on its own fork? I think it would be a very interesting project. Do you feel there would be enough contributors for it? We could easily set something up on our site thefirewiki.org. Leave me a message on my talk page. -- Mfinney ( talk) 05:51, 13 December 2008 (UTC)

While I agree Capasitor has engaged in some tendentious editing practices, I am not willing to sign off on such a mass revert. If you feel Capasitor is making bad faith edits, either to the article or the talk page, there are places to go to air your grievance. But I strongly suggest against starting any kind of edit war or system of mass reversions. -- Golbez ( talk) 22:32, 26 December 2008 (UTC)

Dear Brandmeister, thank you for your changing in the page.

I have nominated Baku-Gazakh motorway minibus crash, an article that you created, for deletion. I do not think that this article satisfies Wikipedia's criteria for inclusion, and have explained why at Wikipedia:Articles for deletion/Baku-Gazakh motorway minibus crash.

You currently appear to be engaged in an
edit war. Note that the
three-revert rule prohibits making more than three reversions on a single page within a 24 hour period. Additionally, users who perform a large number of reversions in content disputes may be blocked for edit warring, even if they do not technically violate the
three-revert rule. If you continue, you may be
blocked from editing. Please do not repeatedly revert edits, but use the talk page to work towards wording and content that gains a
consensus among editors. If necessary, pursue
dispute resolution.

Can you clarify please why you delete every mention of republic of Azerbaijan's linkage to Iran or Iranian culture? I do not understand anti-Iranism among the team of editors from the republic of Azerbaijan.-- Babakexorramdin ( talk) 14:41, 7 May 2009 (UTC)
Hi please use the talkpage to give your rational. I gave my rational. The Persian name was there a year ago. If the Russian name is there, then the Persian name should be there. Again any word that has etymologically Persian root or probable Persian root and has been used extensively in Persian literature (and it has been since more than a 1000 years) is valid. This has nothing to do with your argument with Babak, but please use the talkpage. Note the Azeri language did not exist for some articles (say Nezami or others) but I have allowed it to be there with its latin script. So it is best to be inclusive here and not exclude names based on narrow nationalist criterion. In this case the criterion is etymologically of the word which is Iranian and has been used long before the Russian or even the existence of the Azeri-Turkish language. Thanks. -- Nepaheshgar ( talk) 23:43, 8 May 2009 (UTC)

Hi, and thanks for your contributions. I noticed that you linked some dates in Paulinus of York recently. This practice is now deprecated. Please see WP:LINKING and WP:MOSNUM. Furthermore, there is an temporary Arbcom injunction on mass linking/delinking of chronological elements, although this is no suggestion from me that you are in breach whatsoever. I'm happy to respond to any inquiries you may have about the matter. Thank you for your attention. Dabomb87 ( talk) 00:08, 30 May 2009 (UTC)
Someone mentioned you by name at Wikipedia:Articles for deletion/Azerbaijan–Spain relations. Sincerely, -- A Nobody My talk 17:33, 2 June 2009 (UTC)
I think we have had discussed this already. From the sources oit is obvious that 1- the territories of these Khanates were Iranian territory 2- they were of predominantly Turkicspeaking Shia background, so there is a continuity with the people of the republic of Azerbaijan rather than with Armenia 3- These Khanates were to various degree self-governing depending to the political context of time and the mode of governance of the Iranian empire. In this sense they were no more or less different than other parts of the Iranian empire. All these are obvious from the sources. -- Babakexorramdin ( talk) 14:28, 11 June 2009 (UTC)

Request reason:
The edits provided are not reverts as specified in WP:RV. The current version of the disputed place in the article represents consensus, achieved by me and Babakexorramdin via proposed phrasing whilst the talk page indicates that it was me, who started to seek consensus. I believe the current block is a violation of good faith, WP:PILLAR, WP:BOLD and WP:IAR.
Decline reason:
Those edits were reverts and therefore you have clearly violated your editing restrictions. Ice Cold Beer ( talk) 09:55, 20 June 2009 (UTC)

Brandmeister (old) ( block log • active blocks • global blocks • contribs • deleted contribs • filter log • creation log • change block settings • unblock • checkuser ( log))
Request reason:
Honestly, I did not expect my request would be declined and hereby would like to ask for review. Reverting is explained in WP:RV, not WP:3RR, which deals with three-revert violation (which I have not breached) and as per WP:REVEXP I explained my edits. In my opinion the decision applied is a one-sided interpretation of the definition as if is the only one existing. Additionally, as in AA2 final decision, the sanctions are expected to be imposed only when a warned editor repeatedly or seriously fails to adhere to the purpose of Wikipedia, any expected standards of behavior, or any normal editorial process. I have wrote in the report, that my last second edit ultimately resulted into consensus pursuant to the then-ongoing discussion and edit summaries, instead I was speedily blocked with "further violations will lead to longer blocks and/or restrictions" as if I am the one specified in the aforementioned decision or an edit warrior. Besides, there was no undoing of edits by others - the only one I was talking to is Babakexorramdin ( talk · contribs). :The decision on such issues should depend on some knowledge about the disputed subject and/or involvement in discussion and can not be settled through selective sanctioning. It is unnatural when someone discusses to build a consensus, but the other one cherry-picks to report, especially "in order to prevent escalation of edit warring" and in terms of existing AA2 remedies. There should be no place for witch hunt in Wikipedia and current editing atmosphere becomes unhealthy. Brand t 11:08, 20 June 2009 (UTC)
Decline reason:
I concur with the other admins, this was legitimate application of ArbCom enforcement. In addition, I advise that an ArbCom enforcement block can only be overturned by consensus, not by a single admin. PhilKnight ( talk) 21:30, 20 June 2009 (UTC)
