Since Moreschi is on vacation, I'm also copying here. I'm at the end of my tether. Misplaced Pages can't let {{userlinks|Bharatveer}}, now joined by ]s, hold up productive work on pages ] and ]. They have tried to create new pages ] (AfD'd speedily), start various discussions here and there to keep a bogus issue alive. I resent that I, as a knowledgeable editor in the field have to waste so much of my time in engaging mischief-makers, who in real-life I would never have time for. Very depressing also that a notorious editor, under ArbCom restriction, can get away with so much on Misplaced Pages. ]] 23:02, 26 July 2008 (UTC) | |||

Some things I have noticed. I do not doubt the construction sheet given for the flag, but I am having a very hard time trying to say where in the law is the exact color shade of the flag. My French isn't great, but I didn't see anything from the laws. For the variant section, I suggest adding the President's color, which can be seen at ]. The flag is mentioned in the Article 4 law, so you can easily write about it. Still haven't found the book yet by Dr. Smith. ] <small><sup>]</sup></small> 05:34, 27 July 2008 (UTC) | |||

With all due respect, but the name of the category "Azerbaijani violinists" is misleading. What does the term "Azerbaijani" mean? | |||
*Someone, who has an Azerbaijani citizenship? Well, Asriyan does not have an Azerbaijani citizenship. | |||
*Azerbaijani = born in Azerbaijan? Then why don't we call it "Violinists born in Azerbaijan"? I offered this option at the very beginning. | |||
*Azerbaijani = being ethnically an Azerbaijani Turk? Then how come Asriyan appears there? | |||
<big>'''P.S. You are also invited to ] on Sunday November 19!'''</big> | |||
I would suggest renaming the category to something more appropriate. Also, please be advised that many ethnic minorities (most of whom, are actually the natives of the lands that currently are included in Azerbaijan), are against them being called "Azerbaijanis" because they feel that "Azerification" is the continuation of the same policy of forced assimilation that has been in use since the creation of the first Azerbaijani state back in 1918. ] (]) 05:39, 28 July 2008 (UTC) | |||

== Atiyah == | |||
We will include a look at the organization and planning for our chapter, and expanding volunteer roles for both regular Misplaced Pages editors and new participants. | |||
Hi Nishkid64. Thanks for your comments on the living bio noticeboard. I understand your criticism about lack of mainstream media attention. My question, already raised on the RS noticeboard, is that (1) if you look through the talk page, no one had disputed the facts; that Atiyah was informed of Raju's work and yet approved the publication of an article claiming credit for an idea that he himself judged to be very promising. | |||
(2) there is a strongly worded petition signed by 35 very eminent academics that clearly supports Raju's allegations of academic misconduct. | |||
We will also follow up on plans for recent and upcoming ]s, museum and library projects, education initiatives, and other outreach activities. | |||
The logic behind using mainstream media as an RS is that an editor or a journalist puts his/her reputation on the line. Here, 35 academics including Ashis Nandy, Vandana Shiva, Sumit Sarkar, Tanika Sarkar, Harish Trivedi, MGK Menon and others have stated that there seems a prima facie case of misconduct. To my mind this is far more reliable than a mainstream media source. However, perhaps Misplaced Pages's policies are the opposite and only a mainstream media source is acceptable, not a petition signed by eminent academics. | |||
We welcome the participation of our friends from the ] movement and from all educational and cultural institutions interested in developing free knowledge projects. | |||
I have repeatedly asked this question on the talk page and not received an answer. I did receive an answer on the RS notice board but that was based on a misreading of my original post. | |||
After the main meeting, pizza/chicken/vegetables and refreshments and video games in the gallery! | |||
Perhaps you have an answer to this question. Is it only the mainstream media that is reliable? Or does a petition with signatories far more eminent that you are likely to find in a typical newspaper also acceptable? thanks, | |||
*Wednesday March 21 '''] (] or )'''. | |||
P.S: If you have an answer to this question I would appreciate if you would post it on the RS notice board where I have raised this question. While I am grateful for your friendly advice, I am a bit disinclined towards long bilateral conversations here, on my talk page or on yours. thanks again ] (]) 13:59, 28 July 2008 (UTC) | |||

Hi there is an IP address probably from India which is wreaking havoc with some of the Bollywood articles. See . He persistently keeps adding POV to an article or glorifying an actor or film further than they or it actually is. It is a major nuisance for the editors on here who work on Indian cinema articles to have to keep reverting him day in day out just to maintain some sense of article neutrality. He has been warned many times and his persistence has resulted in edit conflicts on more than just a few articles. Could you please warn and/or block him and try to make him aware of wikipedias neutrality and why his edits which are intent on putting POV or glorifying the subject of the article unnecesarily may be construed as against policy and therefore vandalism. Its doing my nut it keeping track of him. User:Shshshsh (Shahid) raised my awarenss of it initially and other editors such as totalfilmi99 have to keep reverting him e.g . Should he be blocked do you think? is an exmaple of the kind of crap he keeps putting in articles ]</span> <sup>]</sup> 17:02, 28 July 2008 (UTC) | |||

For protecting the Phir Hera Pheri article. Frankly I don't have that strong feelings about the article and the film itself (which I honestly did not like), it's just that emphasis, POV and attempts to defame something make me angry. Apart from that I'm extremely busy these days so it's difficult to follow things consistently. I think we will be able to solve the problem later with a talk page discussion.

|style="vertical-align: middle; border-top: 1px solid gray;" | I Blofeld the Bald award this to you for your outstanding effort at writing a full and highly resourceful article on an Ivorian subject and for your hard work on Africa in general. This is exactly the sort of content that I rave about and try to get onto wikipedia in parts of the world which should quite rightly be equally covered as America and Europe. What this article does is address the subject almost as if it was written from an Ivorian perspective looking out at the world as "America and Europe=other" rather than Africa always being "the other", something very rare on wikipedia. This is exactly what wikipedia should be striving to do across the world, being written as if it was from that place rather than from America. I congratulate you for having been one of the first people to really achieve this on an African subject in such a detailed way. If only we could get all of the articles up to this standard. Congratulations! ]</span> <sup>]</sup> 12:44, 31 July 2008 (UTC) | |||
