I'm not going to pretend that I'm at ease with the decision that I made, but as an admin I have to make a decision, and I made the decision that I think is best for wikipedia and for the editors. I have, at any rate, set the article free from its temporary protection. You're welcome to nominate it for AfD come 1 July, and I promise that I will not adjudicate that AfD nor vote in it (though I may well comment on it). - Richard Cavell 07:54, 22 March 2007 (UTC) Your administration conduct is disputedThis is an official dispute resolution notice. I find your decision to block me [7] incorrect, unjust and contradicting to both WP rules and common sense. That is why I demand your official and most public apologies. Regarding some circumstances of your decision, as well as some other admin decisions of yours, I also seek limitation of your further adminship activities (up to official stripping you off sysop rights), voluntary or ruled out by ArbComm, on the basis of this dispute. The faster you apologize and agree with limitation, the less degree of limitation will I demand. Further steps of WP:DR procedure will of course be made unless you compromise. Thanks, Ukrained 10:00, 22 March 2007 (UTC) I took the time to write the History section of the article [8]. I mentioned the Armenian thing too and gave inter-link but it is not enough apperantly. An Armenian Genocide sub-section is being created again[9]. This is what I wrote to Fedayee: "It is a part of the history of the city so I mentioned it and gave a direct inter-link to the article.

HiHi, what's up.. Hope all is fine. Listen, the problem with those pages is not the simple mention of "Kurdish".. I am cool with the Kurdish-inhabited cat, but this is about a specific expression. There is also the state issue. Kurdistan, and even TRNC, stubs have been deleted in the past for a similar reason: WP:V. It is not even clear what Kurdistan is, let alone that there be a clear concensus on consistently referring to Diyarbakir, Van, Elazig et al as such - Kurdish inhabited, yes. That's all I am saying. Even that map you pointed out uses the "Kurdish-inhabited" expression. Making the jump from that to Kurdistan is OR, no? All the relevant Kurdish-inhabited regions cats should stay, but there are serious WP:V issues with the other cats. That's all. Cheers! Baristarim 01:30, 23 March 2007 (UTC)

There are only seven days for everyone to agree, so please check as soon as possible. -- Cat chi? 22:26, 23 March 2007 (UTC) Hello. The Azerbaijani people article must be re-written to conform with encyclopaedia's such as Encyclopaedia of Islam, Encyclopaedia Iranica, Encyclopaedia Britannica, Grand Dictionnaire Encyclopedique Larousse, Brockhaus and Efron Encyclopedic Dictionary, and World Book Encyclopedia, as well as what many major scholars say, such as Vladimir F. Minorsky and Richard N. Frye, among many others. There are also the recent genetic tests, which should be taken into consideration. Previously, you mentioned something about undo weight and reverted changes to the article. I assume that it is because you had not known that all major encyclopaedias and many scholars now support the Iranian origin theory and also, but to a lesser extent, the Caucasian theory. Well, I agree, Azeri's are considered a Turkic people, due to our language, but in the origins section, the only theories that should be expressed are those of the Caucasian theory and those of the Iranian theory, which are the only two credible and supported theories. Having the Turkic theory in that section is undo-weight, as it is not accepted by major encyclopaedias and historians. In fact, the whole section on the Turkic theory is pure speculation the way its written, trying to combine things that really dont have anything to do with an origin theory. With your help, I think we can really make the origin section better.Azerbaijani 13:10, 24 March 2007 (UTC)

Diem DisputeHello Khoi, You deleted my extensive edits in the article on Ngo Dinh Diem, with instructions to reslove disputes regarding this on the talk page. The message that you left on my page suggested you are some kind of mediator/arbitrator. Accordingly, I am writing to give you my side of the dispute and to request that you restore my edits. I am new to Wikipedia. My first effort has been to edit an article regarding Ngo Dinh Diem, the ruler of South Vietnam from 1954 until his ouster and assassination in November 1963. The article in place when I started contained many assertions unsupported by authority. Indeed, its heading effectively acknowledged the article's inadequacies. I started filling in the citations and correcting (unsupported) misstatements, using the most recent history available, Triumph Forsaken: A History of the Vietnam War, 1954-1965 written by Dr. Mark Moyar and published in 2006 by the Cambridge University Press, and relying to a lesser extent on a history of the entire Vietnam War written by a journalist named Stanley Karnow. Every assertion I made was supported by one of these two works. Three times now a user named Youhooboo has deleted my edits and restored the (admittedly inadequate) original in its entirety. This user's first edit summary simply stated "Catholic propaganda" (Diem was a Roman Catholic). The second edit summary said, "Rubbish; Catholics were not a majority in Vietnam," thereby contradicting an assertion I never made. The final edit summary asserted that Dr. Moyar's views do not represent the consensus; however, the original article can hardly be said to represent any consensus, because it cites virtually no authorities, mainstream or otherwise. For that matter, I have made no material changes to any parts of the original that were supported by citation. I would also add that there appears to be no consensus regarding Diem, but that Dr. Moyar's work is thoroughly supported by citations, including American military and CIA reports and Communist histories. I have left a message on Youhooboo's talk page and invited that individual to respond. Thus far, he/she has declined to do so. I invite you to compare the two articles. Once you've done that, I would respectfully ask you to either restore my edits or explain to my why Youhooboo's deletions are allowed to stand.VnTruth 12:35, 26 March 2007 (UTC)VnTruth. Good Morning Khoi, Thanks for getting back to me. Everything you say makes eminent sense. I am going to try to make incremental changes, and I will be careful about portraying Moyar's POV as fact. Having said that, I must add that I left a message several days ago on Youhooboo's talk page inviting him/her to discuss this matter; his/her only response has been to leave a message on my talk page telling me not to change other people's edits. It doesn't look to me like he/she is interested in talking. Finally, my friend,I have a question for you. The last user to delete my re-write was not Youhooboo, but you. While it's true that I may have represented Moyar's POV as fact, I at least cited the pages in Moyar's book where he supports that POV. In contrast, the article that you restored asserts other apparent POVs as fact without any attribution whatsoever. So why did you delete my version? --VnTruth 13:06, 27 March 2007 (UTC) A few thingsHi, Khoikhoi, a few things:

"Later the land around lake was ruled by Armenians. Along with Lake Sevan in today's Armenia and Lake Urmia in today's Iran, Van was one of the three great lakes of the Armenian Kingdom, referred to as the seas of Armenia. " You know what, it is an Armenian nostalgia other than a cultural history, they were Byzantine/Persian/Seljuk etc. 3 great lakes as well, should we tell about them? Remember, you had warned me once about noting the independence day not to offend others. Don't you think others offended? SEY01 06:18, 27 March 2007 (UTC) I think you have missed continuous reverts of Artaxiad in Lake Van article as making pun, putting remarks infront of the changes "source added" "reference" etc. Could you please warn him or shall I inform to someone else? Thanx. SEY01 06:20, 29 March 2007 (UTC) GanjaOh, the usual. Adil is using OR and POV to say that the Pahlavi language is called Middle Iranian, not Middle Persian, even after I have posted a Britannica link to Pahlavi which clearly says its middle Persian, and even after I have shown him the Wikipedia article about Pahlavi. I am also going to bring up Iranica (also, did you see his comment on your talk page in which he says Britannica, Iranica, Encyclopaedia of Islam, etc... are not reliable source? [19] This is really getting ridiculous). He is also using a non Third party non reliable non scholarly source to push a "Turkic theory" regarding the etymology of the name Ganja. He cannot find one third party scholarly source supporting his claim. Adil, Grandmaster, and Atabek and the same users who say no Iranian sources can be used anywhere and always ask for third party scholarly sources, yet when it comes to their own edits, they basically do what ever they want and gang up on me! Thats why I'm asking for a third party to comment on the issue.Azerbaijani 13:05, 27 March 2007 (UTC)

For the first one, I was trying to update the article with better references and a 50 - 74 mil range is not a range, it is more like a sea.. As for the second one, Atilim's edit was very good - and you simply reverted him, not just his wording but even his references formatting without a single word. It was not very cool.. In any case, I don't mind the CIA ref being mentioned: in Atilim's version both sources were given for what they were - it seemed quite reasonable actually.. At least please use the talk page.

Salam, please review the discussions history - User:Ev unilaterally changed the format of the discussion without making the right changes - look at this [21] then this, after I changed things to set things properly [22] (look at the votes section) - had I not made the changes, an admin would think those voting "Oppose" to moving the article (and voting to keep it the way it is) were actually opposing keeping it at the current title! The fact that he keeps his comments opposing keeping it at the current title makes it even look more suspicious [23]. To me it looks like he wanted to influence the outcome in favour of the move, to fool the closing admin. He notified other users involved of the format change, but had they not checked up on it, they would never have known that their votes had inadvertently been changed by the format change. And I should say that the change was not agreed upon by everyone or even most and it was not necessary! In general, when I see this kind of behaviour, I find it disturbing because it is clear that he is trying to influence the end result. I would appreciate if you could keep an eye on the discussion and make sure he does not make such unilateral changes again and prevent other people with an agenda from doing such harm. Merci, Khorshid 02:37, 1 April 2007 (UTC) Also by these peoples logic (and I wrote this there too), meaning those voting to move only to "Shatt al-Arab", we should move Persian Gulf to The Gulf since almost all sources in UK and Australia call Persian Gulf only as "The Gulf"! And of course since all "The Gulf" Arab countries call Persian Gulf as "Arabian Gulf" then maybe it should be moved to Arabian Gulf! Its silly and contentious. Hopefully Wikipedia admins will see that this controversy is not worth escalating and to to keep things as they are instead of giving in to people with an agenda. I can try to assume good faith but really it seems silly to do that when the current title is as NPOV as it can get. First, the endless nightmare of the Persian Gulf article, and now this one is going to be an endless hazard as well! It never ends. Khorshid 02:43, 1 April 2007 (UTC) Is it Bonaparte there again?

Tajik is blocked for no good reasonHello Khoikhoi. I was just on Tajik's talk page about to talk to him about something and I noticed that he is now blocked indefinatly. I read over the reasons and its only that me made a few reverts. He did not even beak the 3RR rule. He just did a few reverts of very obvious vandalism. And then he was blocked. This admin thats doing this I think has something against him and is abusing his admin status. Please try to look into this because he is too valuable of a member to loose. --Behnam 08:42, 1 April 2007 (UTC)
Move requestHello. It looks like a consensus exists to move Fântâna Albă incident to Fântâna Albă massacre (see talk), but we need an admin to do it. (There is one objector, but I count 7 for a move.) Would you please consider doing this? Thank you. Biruitorul 14:31, 1 April 2007 (UTC)
MaucoI've reset the original block of 2 months. It certainly looked like a pretty classic case of edit warrior requests unblock/gets mad when it doesn't happen, but if you believe they're Bonaparte, I'll trust your judgment. Seraphimblade Talk to me 18:29, 1 April 2007 (UTC) The New Central Asia project pageHi I revised (a bit radically) the navigation system of the Wikipedia:WikiProject Central Asia. The old page was a mess. You are a member of the project, I would appreciate if you would compare with the old page and give a feedback on the talk page. Thanks. cs 22:05, 1 April 2007 (UTC) An arbitration case involving you has been filed. Feel free to comment there. -- Cat chi? 13:12, 2 April 2007 (UTC) AutoblockHi Khoikhoi Please see the autoblock notice in my talk page ... such number is of syrian proxy so it is shared by huge number of users .. please make the block just for unregistered users --Chaos 17:53, 2 April 2007 (UTC) Oguz1...againHello Khoi, i've complained about him before and sorry if it sounds annoying but I will nag once more. He has clearly broken the 3RR rule on anything that has the words "Armenian Genocide" in it. He is going on an anti-Armenian Genocide rampage, and mind I say it, this is nothing but disruption. I am running out of patience on him. [24] [25] [26] [27] [28] [29] [30] ...and so on and so on. Might I add that this user has been blocked before...for upwards to a week and this has clearly not affected the user. Thank you. - Fedayee 21:20, 2 April 2007 (UTC) qazakhand why revert Qazakh page [31], removing extensively discussed verifiable and scholarly references to Lt-Gen. William Monteith, Movses Khorenatsi, Hovaness Draskhanakertci, Moisey Kalankatuyski (Movses Dasxuranci), among other things? --adil 22:26, 2 April 2007 (UTC) I just ran into theseHi.. I just read your post at van province and looked at the Great Fire of Smyrna talk page for the first time in two months. Things really seem to have degenerated into absolute chaos with posts like [32] [33] [34] (I am personally disappointed with the last one, he is an established user that I respect).. Half the comments have nothing to do with article stricto sensu. I really would like to delete most of those posts and archive, and give warnings either in the talk page or to those users - however, since I am Turkish I am afraid of being accused of "pushing POV" of some sorts. I need your opinion on how to proceed - such a talk page working environnement cannot continue and if things don't work out I will have to bring this up at AN/I; something which I am also kinda afraid of doing so as not to be accused as I pointed out above. What do you think? At the very least that talk page needs supervision to literally "to keep the leash tight", no matter who is commenting. Considering the latest furore and ArbCom case for AM-AR editors, I am surprised that there was no ArbCom case or similar about this. Cheers! Baristarim 02:47, 3 April 2007 (UTC)
Sébastien de CourtoisInteresting to note that Sébastien de Courtois' book is subtitled The Last Arameans, which was changed to Assyrians, I assume intentionally. (By the way, here's your source about the Arameans, you'd asked about that earlier.) Hence, the source mentioned provides no evidence that all the Syriacs mentioned in the article, are to be considered Assyrians, on the contrary, I'd say. --Benne ['bɛnə] (talk) 06:41, 3 April 2007 (UTC)
Oh my babo Alaha. I just realized the Encyclopaedia of the Orient is only used for the population statistic of three contries, Syria, Turkey, and Lebanon. You are making such a big deal out of this? These numbers are considered to be an even low estimate and that is why I used them. I dont use Assyrian organization numbers like most ethnic pages do to increase their population number. What is the problem here? Chaldean RfA thanks
blockhi - could you block User:Atlas87 - confirmed sock - please? Here's the checkuser confirmation that it's a sockpuppet, and here's some background. Thanks very much - he's west coast US, so could be online again tonight. (I'm writing to you because it appears you're online now.) Tvoz |talk 06:56, 3 April 2007 (UTC)
Kanuni...Thanks. I was going to block him for 3RR (even though I was in the conflict, since he obviously wasn't understanding). I haven't been paying very good attention to Transnistria lately--who is he a sockpuppet of? Lexicon (talk) 19:48, 3 April 2007 (UTC) Afrika_paprika sockpuppetHi Looks like that the Afrika_paprika is back as EppurSiMuove. I've mihgt be wrong - but judging about the cause he is fighting for - it's obvious him. You have alredy blocked one of his accounts PEpicka Best regards, --Giorgio Orsini 22:16, 3 April 2007 (UTC) 300Hi Khoikhoi. Why did you change the lead of 300 (film) to a "fictional account". This is clearly not what its makers and the various experts believe. Of course it's not a documentary, but the answer lies in the middle. Few lines below it is already mentioned that the film is historical fantasy (which by the way has no source). If we are to follow Mardavich's views we'll have to change the lead to "an account from Greek mythology". Miskin 01:36, 4 April 2007 (UTC)
ArmeniaI've semiprotected it. I think he's actually out of socks, or else the Checkuser nailed them. Hopefully, he'll realize it's not going to stick, no matter how many sockpuppets he pulls, and go away. Seraphimblade Talk to me 03:00, 4 April 2007 (UTC)

Since you closed the deletion discussion for this article or speedy-deleted it, you might want to participate in the deletion review. —KingIvan 11:57, 4 April 2007 (UTC) Yet another peace attemptLINK (haha, I'm funny!)? Former Anon was clearly a legitimate sockpuppet. I'll reproduce some text from WP:SOCK so you can see why: Legitimate uses of multiple accountsMultiple accounts have legitimate uses. For example, prominent users might create a new account in order to experience how the community functions for new users. Segregation and securityOther users employ multiple accounts to segregate their contributions for various reasons: * A user making substantial contributions to an area of interest in Wikipedia might register another account to be used solely in connection with developing that area. * Someone who is known to the public or within a particular circle may be identifiable based on his/her interests and contributions; dividing these up between different accounts might help preserve the person's anonymity. Users with a recognized expertise in one field, for example, might not wish to associate their contributions to that field with contributions to articles about less weighty subjects. * A person editing an article which is highly controversial within his/her family, social or professional circle may wish to use a sock puppet so that readers unfamiliar with NPOV policy will not assume his/her information edits are statements of personal belief. Keeping heated issues in one small areaSome editors use different accounts in talk pages to avoid conflicts about a particular area of interest turning into conflicts based upon user identity and personal attacks elsewhere, or to avoid harassment outside of Wikipedia. A person participating in a discussion of an article about abortion, for example, might not want to allow other participants an opportunity to extend that discussion or engage them in unrelated or philosophically motivated debate outside the context of that article. If you want to edit a "hot" or controversial subject you may use a sock puppet so long as you do not use any other account to edit the same subject or make it appear that multiple people support the same action.
I stand by my belief that "Bosnian Muslim" is the correct English term, and I would settle for the articles to say "Bosniaks (Bosnian Muslims)". I cannot, however, accept the fact that you block accounts against policy. I cannot accept that you are willing to abuse your admin privileges to gain the upper hand in a dispute. And I cannot accept that you are willing to defend a nationalist/revisionist/vandal like Emir Arven, while at the same time, campaigning against me - an editor who infrequently edits Wikipedia, an editor who makes very minor edits (albeit, sometimes controversial ones), and editor with a good sense of humour, an editor with a ready willingness to forgive and forget. I just can't understand this "anti-Ivan Kricancic sentiment" of yours. But, as I said above, I am ready and willing to forgive and forget. I will accept the end of my AMA request, and the end of Emir Arven's RFC, if:
I feel that the dispute in which I am currently involved with Emir is extremely stupid - mostly because of the fact that I am an infrequent and minor editor, and there is this huge dispute. I would just like all of us to forget about this and move on. —KingIvan 10:43, 4 April 2007 (UTC) DerbentHi! I googled a little, and found a Lezgi forum, where they wrote the city's name as "Дербент". I hope this is okay as a source. I'll add it to the Derbent article and try to find the Tabasaran form later. — N-true 11:55, 4 April 2007 (UTC) As we say in Turkish, the fox eventually ends up in the fur shopWhat can I say, I have a short fuse. I must find a way of preventing Wikipedia from pissing me off. Maybe relaxing with articles such as this. Thank you for the touchy goodbye message, I hope it wasn't a bloody standard e-mail you send to everyone. Laters.--Doktor Gonzo 13:58, 4 April 2007 (UTC) TagsSalam. Please check that whether I've used correct tags in these pictures or not? --Sa.vakilian(t-c) 17:30, 4 April 2007 (UTC) I forgotI totally forgot to give you this before I leave. Don't forget what I told you in the past, don't give up to vocal users. :) Oh and forget about Adil's RfC, he's pursuing his personal vendetta against you.
