Advice

Hello, TahaKahi,

You have already received one indefinite block. This makes it much more likely that you could be blocked again than an editor who has never been blocked for disruptive editing. I'm not judging your current disputes and saying who is right or wrong (I haven't looked into it all) but I advise you to steer clear of editors who you are in a dispute with even if this means abandoning articles you have been working on. It might not be fair but if you want to be editing Wikipedia for the long-term, you need to find a way to coexist with editors you disagree with. You are not alone. Every editor who has been editing for any length of time has other editors who they don't get along with. But you have to stop bringing every disagreement to a noticeboard or you'll be seen as a "dramamonger".

What many new editors don't seem to understand, and I still consider you a new editor, is the purpose of administrators is to reduce disruption on the project so that regular editors can work productively according to Wikipedia policies and guidelines. At some point, and it might be soon, it doesn't matter who did what to whom, if you are seen as causing disruption, you will be shown the door. Like you, admins are volunteers and they don't have the time to read through the walls of texts and dozens of diffs you are posting. They will just notice who keeps coming to the surface as a problematic editor. Instead of continuing to edit articles where you come into conflict with the same handful of editors, move to a different area of the project where you can build up your editing experience and good-will among other editors. Work on some non-contentious topics. This is a recommendation I would give to any editor who is in a heated dispute like you are but I post it to you because you are new and might be open to adjusting your editing approach in order to keep being an editor on this project. Good luck. Liz Read! Talk! 02:36, 13 October 2024 (UTC)[reply]

Thank you for your advice. I understand the importance of avoiding disruption and managing conflicts better. I’ll focus on working in less contentious areas to build my experience and contribute positively. I did try to that, in a topic never interested the other editors I'am in a dispute with but it was once again reverted by the same user. My goal is to be a constructive editor for the long term, and I appreciate your guidance in helping me adjust my approach. and I will try once again in different topics and hope for the best. Thank you! TahaKahi (talk) 07:32, 13 October 2024 (UTC)[reply]

Hi. Thank you for your recent edits. An automated process has detected that when you recently edited Barb horse, you added a link pointing to the disambiguation page Description of Africa. Such links are usually incorrect, since a disambiguation page is merely a list of unrelated topics with similar titles. (Read the FAQ • Join us at the DPL WikiProject.)

I just closed the thing you started a week ago. In my opinion it was never a matter for administrative intervention, and the interminable back and forths support that. I will warn you--I have not followed all your edits, but I ran into the AIV report, and I consider that a kind of harassment. The best thing you can do--well there are two. First, start this as an actual discussion, not an accusation, on a relevant talk page. Second, try to steer clear of your opponent, M.Bitton, because any further harassment and I will block you. I agree that the inclusion or exclusion of Arabic in the articles you point at is really important, and I have my set of opinions on the historical oppression suffered by the Amazigh people--but Wikipedia is not a place for activism. Whatever the precise import of this, for instance, should have been handled on the talk page, perhaps with an RfC. Drmies (talk) 21:38, 15 October 2024 (UTC)[reply]

I'll add to this advice that I think you should only start the discussion once you're a much more experienced editor. Changing something is almost always going to be the harder position to argue, even when there isn't some broader context or personal history involved. Start small. -- asilvering (talk) 00:18, 16 October 2024 (UTC)[reply]

Ashur, Ashshur

I see from User:TahaKahi/sandbox that you have created an interesting article. It looks to me as if it deserves to be moved to mainspace. Please let me know if you intend to develop it further. Which spelling would you like to use for the title?--Ipigott (talk) 10:11, 1 November 2024 (UTC)[reply]

Thank you, and I apologize for the delay in responding. I was a bit busy and forgot to check Wikipedia for a while. No, the sandbox is not exactly for a new topic but rather for edits on an existing article. I still have some work to do to address the issues expressed by another user. Thank you so much!
