Please be mindful of guidelines

Thank you for your contributions to Armenia–Azerbaijan border crisis (2021–present), however, many of the quotes you are adding are violating MOS:CURLY. I have brought it up in my edit summaries a few times now, but you seem to continue to use “curly” apostrophes which is not proper. Please make more of an effort to proof-read your work before publishing and ensure only 'straight' apostrophes are used. Thanks, Archives908 (talk) 12:58, 9 June 2023 (UTC)

Hi @Archives908Archives908

Thank you for your message and for fixing some of my typos. I genuinely appreciate it. I find it difficult to visually see the difference between " and “. I will try to remember this going forward!!!

You should know however, that you have also introduced some mistakes in your edits.

Following Azerbaijan's September 2022 attacks, the organization said "This aggression was predictable in light of international community’'s failure to condemn Azerbaijan and Turkey’'s war crimes during the 44-day war and the community’'s mute response to post 2020 developments, lacking any condemnation of actions by Baku." The organization also called for the international community act, stating that "the sanctions applied against Azerbaijan should be similar to those applied against Russia by the western powers as both are threat to democracies,."

These words in square brackets in this quotation are needed to either A) keep the grammar correct or B) maintain the clarity when used in this paragraph.

A) "This aggression was predictable in light of international community’'s failure to condemn Azerbaijan and Turkey. Without , the sentence is grammatically incorrect. Definite articles are required before nouns that are generally not known.

B) "The organization also called for the international community act, stating that "the sanctions applied against Azerbaijan should be similar to those applied against Russia by the western powers as both are threat to democracies." This case is more a matter of style but here serves to clarify. Without the reader might believe (that is, interpret) that sanctions are already applied to Azerbaijan. They are not.

As you can see, making typographical or stylistic errors in Misplaced Pages is common and can even occur accidentally by editors who try and fix the mistakes of other editors! Misplaced Pages is a collaborative environment and I thank you for your kind edits to Misplaced Pages and for pointing me to Misplaced Pages Style guidelines that I am unfamiliar with.

Then fix them! Just as I have been taking time to review and fix your edits for several weeks now. I'm not actively contributing mass amounts of text to this article- and because I am not a robot, I cannot analyze vast amounts of text for errors. You are adding text/quotes/citations almost every single day, therefore, it would help immensely if you can take the time to proofread your edits before you click "publish". Thank you for your understanding and contributions nonetheless. Regards, Archives908 (talk) 14:38, 9 June 2023 (UTC)

Blockade of the Republic of Artsakh (2022–present)

Thank you for your hard work and contributions to the project. I would like to alert you to the article of Blockade of the Republic of Artsakh (2022–present). I see you edit it a lot, which is good. However, there are too many sources on the article - see WP:REFBOMB. Adding sources just for the sake of adding sources is not constructive. It would be helpful if you went back and removed unnecessary sources. Also, the lede needs complete restructuring. There doesn't need to be any citations in the lede as long as the content is mentioned further down in the article. Lastly, you need to make sure that you are writing from a neutral point of view. I am seeing many biased words in the article, mostly in favor of the Artsakhi perspective, which is troubling. We strive to use neutral wording on Misplaced Pages, as this is not a propaganda website but an encyclopedia. Thank you for your help improving this article, and please continue to do so keeping in mind what I said. Paul Vaurie (talk) 06:11, 12 August 2023 (UTC)

@Paul Vaurie When you get a moment, can you please address my response (and that of another editor) to your comments on the article Talk page? looking forward to hearing your feedback. R.Lemkin (talk) 14:26, 15 August 2023 (UTC)

You have made additional changes on August 14 without addressing the comments of previous editors which took issue with your edits on August 12. Looking forward to hearing what you have to say to my comments and to those of the other editor kevo R.Lemkin (talk) 14:29, 15 August 2023 (UTC)

@R.Lemkin: Thanks, but I'm choosing to disengage. I don't want to get involved in a content dispute right now. Paul Vaurie (talk) 17:47, 15 August 2023 (UTC)
