Jeita GrottoHello, Elie I've been having a look at your Jeita Grotto article - excellent.

Chantal/RootSpace Chantal Souaid (talk) 12:34, 24 April 2009 (UTC) File source problem with File:Elie Mitri.jpg Thanks for uploading File:Elie Mitri.jpg. I noticed that the file's description page currently doesn't specify who created the content, so the copyright status is unclear. If you did not create this file yourself, you will need to specify the owner of the copyright. If you obtained it from a website, then a link to the website from which it was taken, together with a restatement of that website's terms of use of its content, is usually sufficient information. However, if the copyright holder is different from the website's publisher, their copyright should also be acknowledged. If you have uploaded other files, consider checking that you have specified their source and tagged them, too. You can find a list of files you have uploaded by following this link. Unsourced and untagged images may be deleted one week after they have been tagged, as described on criteria for speedy deletion. If the image is copyrighted under a non-free license (per Wikipedia:Fair use) then the image will be deleted 48 hours after 18:01, 28 April 2009 (UTC). If you have any questions please ask them at the Media copyright questions page. Thank you. Martin H. (talk) 18:01, 28 April 2009 (UTC)

Request to participate in University of Washington survey on tool to quickly understand Wikipedians’ reputationsHello. I'm part of a research group at the University of Washington. In April, we met with some local Wikipedians to learn what they would like to know about other editors’ history and activities (within Wikipedia) when interacting with them on talk pages. The goal of those sessions was to gather feedback to help design an embedded application that could quickly communicate useful information about other Wikipedians. We have now created a few images that we feel represent some of what our participants thought was important. We would appreciate it if you took a few minutes of your time to complete an online survey that investigates whether or not these images would be useful to you. Your quick contribution would be very valuable to our research group and ultimately to Wikipedia. (When finished, the code for this application will be given over to the Wikipedia community to use and/or adjust as they see fit.) Willing to spend a few minutes taking our survey? Click this link. Please feel free to share the link with other Wikipedians. The more feedback, the better! The survey is completely anonymous and takes less than 10 minutes to complete. All data is used for university research purposes only. Thank you for your time! If you have any questions about our research or research group, please visit our user page.

My "little editing" about the 2006 Israeli/Hezbollah War was well intentioned. Seeing the recent damage done after the Israeli bombardments I was shocked.My "little editing" about the 2006 Israeli/Hezbollah War was well intentioned. Seeing the recent damage done after the Israeli bombardments I was shocked. Having seen how much damage the Israeli bombarments which they call "selective surgical or target strikes" in South Beirut, which I saw coming from and to the airport in early 2007, I thought the harm especially in South Beirut was downplayed in the article. Though I saw Gaza on televison the very same Israeli "selective surgical or target strikes" caused widespread damage there with a lot of innocent deaths. (As a staunch secularist, I am no friend of Hezbollah (or Hamas for that matter), and as you will surely as a Lebanese will agree, I hate fundamentalism and secteranism an every form, religion should be separated from politics and politics from religion. It caused your beautiful country and city so much harm, and as I saw is still divided psychologically and physiacally into secterian sections. Religion is a private matter concerning the individual, and it should not be abused for political means.) I went there for the (still) first time for academic purposes for a week (from Turkey), with a little sightseeing in central Beirut and ventured as far as to the edge of South Beirut (aka Hezbollahland) which was nerveracking. I hope your country can be rid of the religious divisions and become truly peaceful, tranquil and "normal". I wish all the best and good luck. Thanks!Thanks for the encouragement! I really appreciate it. Mnation2 (talk) 03:31, 1 July 2009 (UTC) DLMI'm not really sure how the media files and copyright work, so I'll need your help with that. In the meantime, I'll try to do some copy editing. Thanks for your help! Mnation2 (talk) 16:34, 5 July 2009 (UTC) Hey, That PDF isn't the DLM's manifesto, but it is written by important figures in the party, so it could still be significant for the article. The draft document/manifesto of the party is here: http://alyassar.org/ar/content/view/10/5/ Unfortunately, I can't read arabic, so it's pretty much useless to me. There should be some interesting stuff there. The closest thing I could find to an organizational chart is the party's "rules of procedure", which is here: http://alyassar.org/ar/content/view/11/5/ If you could read through those, they should be pretty helpful. Do tell me what you find! Thanks, Mnation2 (talk) 22:16, 11 July 2009 (UTC) I did some reviewing/editing. You repeatedly referred to the DLM as the DML - watch out for that. As always, thanks for your help. Mnation2 (talk) 02:26, 12 July 2009 (UTC) Hey, have you looked at the alyassar documents yet?

Edit War?Honestly I do not understand why there would even be an edit war over something that is true. Do you know how I can make them stop undoing my edits, I have spent a lot of time looking for reliable sources and I have used them! Bas mabedun I even used their own newspapers as a source and they still deleted my edit. Who can I go to, to help me? Because my sources are beyond reliable. I do not think ever said George Wassouf is Lebanese origin. Youssef Chahine and Omar Sharif are both Lebanese by origin and I think they should acknowledge this on wiki since almost every website on the internet does.

Hi, i'm elias, nominator of Jeita Grotto, your nomination of the above mentioned picture is not justified, refer to [2] namely [3] article 31.

I noticed that you are nominating Jeita Grotto for featured article status. The prose needs significant work, and the FAC reviewers will make that point known . . . very effectively. I've fixed up most of the lead and will do some more tomorrow. Hopefully, with the reviewers preoccupied by sources and pictures and alternate text (whatever that is), I'll be able to attend to the whole article before then.

Thanks for taking a look at that Phalanges article. I think we could form a strong front together to keep Wiki unbiased. If you have some time, please also take a look at Arab Christians. To my knowledge, Maronites (the overwhleming majority of Lebanese Christians) are not Arabs and do not consider themselves Arabs, as opposed to the Greek Orthodox who may sometime identify as Arabs (on a geopolitical or linguistic basis of course, since they are not ethnic Arabs). The article is suggesting that all Lebanese Christians are Arabs, based on the number added to the infobox by the user Izzedine. Please take a look at it when you have time and let me know what you think. Thanks :) ----Ⲗⲁⲛⲧⲉⲣⲛⲓⲝ [talk] 17:50, 26 September 2009 (UTC)
AdminshipThanks for the support, but I purposefully dive into controversial topics head first, often playing devil's advocate for persons or groups that I'm not particularly fond of myself, in an attempt to reach consensus on neutral descriptions. It's just how I try to ensure that everything is written from a neutral point of view. As a side effect though, there are probably quite a few very opinionated editors who think me a terrible person as well, and would oppose any attempt for adminship. That said, maybe one day I'll change my mind and give it a go, but for now I'm happy just trying to improve whatever articles I can. :) ← George talk 10:33, 27 September 2009 (UTC) RfD nomination of 2009 Jeux de la FrancophonieI have nominated 2009 Jeux de la Francophonie (edit | talk | history | protect | delete | links | watch | logs | views) for discussion.

Specific Athletics events links on 2009 JeuxI saw you added specific links to each event in the athletics competition in the calendar. However, I think a single results page detailing all the results of the finals (Athletics at the 2009 Jeux de la Francophonie) will do. The reason is two-fold: firstly, the athletes who don't make the final of a specific event are highly likely to be non-notable athletes, thus their inclusion is debatable. Secondly, events pages for each race/competition is very time-consuming – that is the reason why, beyond the Olympic Games and Athletics World Championships, you do not often find articles of this nature. I think the links should be removed, or redirected to the main 2009 athletics page. Sillyfolkboy (talk) (edits)Join WikiProject Athletics! 00:49, 2 October 2009 (UTC)

. Thanks. I would cite a reference, but I have never found one. But I was there last year and the guy who looks after the quarry (has a cafe there) said there is a smaller stone in the next quarry. I went and measured it with a surveyor's tape, and it was substantially bigger. Don't have the measurements with me, but I seem to remember a meter wider and two meters longer. The evidence is in the photo. There is also no great discussion in this section about the underground tunnels, which clearly demonstrate two construction phases on the site (one megalithic and one seemingly Roman). Again I have photos, but no references. Every reference I have found suggests that the entire site was Roman.

Sorry for the super-duper late response!Hey Eli! So sorry for taking like two weeks to respond. . . I've been sick and really busy. <.< Anyway, the Facebook group is another great idea on your part. Personally, though, I'd like to remain anonymous. Mnation2 (talk) 03:29, 28 November 2009 (UTC)

August was also a bad time to visit (The heat is fine but the humidity was sometimes painful) so I spent too little time near the coast - Peripitus (Talk) 20:25, 4 December 2009 (UTC)
ArrivingIn writing, there are are always small matters for possible improvement. (Arthur C. Clarke, after years, rewrote one of his fine stories, but didn't improve it in any substantial way, imho.) At some point, a writer needs to be "internally directed". I think you're there.

I usually write in the german Wikipedia: [8] and sometimes do small correctios in other ones. Today I introduced the interwikis for Marie-Alphonsine Danil Ghattas because the robots weren´t doing that. My nickname comes from Pope Miltiades. Blessed Christmas. --Milziade (talk) 13:28, 23 December 2009 (UTC) Re: Hey GeorgeHi Eli+. Thank you, and I hope you had a happy holidays as well. Regarding the issue you mentioned, the diff you linked would indeed indicate that the user is the same as the blocked IP address editor. If they are using the account to avoid the block, the place to report them would be the Administrator's incidents noticeboard. Hope that helps, and good luck! ← George talk 13:11, 27 December 2009 (UTC) Changes to me user page"Decent" → "descent"? Absolutely. But I'm not sure what you meant with "blonde" → "blond". — The Man in Question (in question) 08:17, 30 December 2009 (UTC)
