Disambiguation link notification for August 18Hi. Thank you for your recent edits. Wikipedia appreciates your help. We noticed though that when you edited Vannozza dei Cattanei, you added a link pointing to the disambiguation page Paul Donovan. Such links are almost always unintended, since a disambiguation page is merely a list of "Did you mean..." article titles. Read the FAQ • Join us at the DPL WikiProject.

Edits on Lebanese DruzeYou kept making edits saying that Lebanese Druze are Muslims without any citations and ignoring the ones that I provided showing that Druze are not Muslims. Your most recent edit doesn't even make sense. "fasting during the month of Ramadan and making a pilgrimage to Mecca. Thus, they are not regarded by Muslims as Islamic. Thus, they are not regarded by Muslims as Islamic" Druze do not fast during Ramadan or do Hajj. Yet you then changed the opening statement to say that Druze are Muslims which is contradictory. Who regards Druze as Muslims? The citations I provided clearly stated that Druze are not Muslims. Majority of Muslims do not consider Druze to be Muslims and the majority of Druze do not consider themselves to be Muslims. --HamzaWahabi (talk) 17:39, 14 May 2015 (UTC) Yes you are right the Lebanese constitution does regard Druze to be Muslims. Though Druze have tried to get it recognized as separate and it failed under other periods. Israeli Druze however were able to get recognition as a separate community. https://books.google.com/books?id=Qo-ZswqtGG4C&pg=PA90&dq=Druze+israel+separate+1957&hl=en&sa=X&ei=T1ZXVamuEsOjsAXxiIGwBg&ved=0CC4Q6AEwAw#v=onepage&q=Druzes%20were%20recognized%20as%20a%20seperate&f=false However most Muslims Sunni and Shias do not consider Druze to be Muslims https://books.google.com/books?id=w2rc0RI7EqYC&pg=PA18&lpg=PA18&dq=Druze+are+not+muslim&source=bl&ots=grRrOhbC8D&sig=ZhJPwyBYRlUAzv6qbltxUBFvtQo&hl=en&sa=X&ei=7FdXVbiQBcu9sAXAjIGoBg&ved=0CCAQ6AEwATgU#v=onepage&q=Sunnis%20and%20Shia%20alike%20regard&f=false Many Islamic scholars have stated Druze are not Muslims throughout history https://books.google.com/books?id=xcPwGmYwCKUC&pg=PA116&lpg=PA116&dq=Druze+not+muslim+Majallat+al-Buhooth+al-Islamiyyah&source=bl&ots=MUhqe082-d&sig=P0IZ4WJNS0-BWk9PnJkZBE9x0xw&hl=en&sa=X&ei=UFhXVfiCFciosAW1yYCoBg&ved=0CCUQ6AEwAQ#v=onepage&q=Majallat%20al-Buhooth%20al-Islamiyyah&f=false My source reads the following: "The Druze do not:- practice recitation of the creed, reciting prayers five times a day, wed to multiple wives, fasting during the month of Ramadan and making a pilgrimage to Mecca. Thus, they are not regarded by Muslims as Islamic." Druze DO NOT fast during ramadan or do hajj. You excluded the beginning of the of the sentence. --HamzaWahabi (talk) 10:50, 16 May 2015 (UTC Category:Kurdish geographyHello - I have a question regarding Category:Kurdish geography, which you created recently: Were you aware that there was already a Category:Geography of Kurdistan? Do we really need two separate categories that seem to cover the same subject area? Is there a compelling reason not to merge the new category into the older one? (which also uses the standard naming convention for geography sub-cats). Regards, Cgingold (talk) 04:28, 22 May 2015 (UTC)
Assyrians/ArameansHaving looked back at your talk page history I can tell you're familiar with the topic of the ethnic identity of Syriac Christians. Furthermore, I've noticed you have recently altered various articles and created several categories that suggest a pro-Aramean identity bias. This leads me of course to your talk page as I would like to discuss this with you rather than simply undo your edits so to prevent any future disagreements. Wikipedia maintains that Assyrian people is to cover all those who identify as Aramean, Assyrian, Chaldean, Syriac or Syrian. Therefore, your edits that suggest a modern Aramean people rather than regional identity is contrary to what is commonly accepted and hindering efforts to organise Wikipedia. I hope that we can solve this issue and prevent any further POV edits. Mugsalot (talk) 16:34, 30 June 2015 (UTC)
HeyHi, I'm Elias I'm trying to be more active after a long wiki-hibernation. I've seen that you're active on some of my watchlist pages; I feel the need for an editing partner or someone to put me back on tracks. If you need assistance with some Lebanon related article please let me know cos I don't know where and how to restart editing. Where do you live? -Elias Z 04:42, 1 July 2015 (UTC)

Do not continue to make edits that appear disruptive until the dispute is resolved through consensus. Continuing to edit disruptively may result in your being blocked from editing. Your edits on Yazidi language are plenty disruptive.
