==Name of Thes/niki; Wiki Policies Question==
Hi Khoikhoi. Thank you for your attention to the Thessaloniki name issue ]. I am a bit put off by discussion that seems to be ''mocking'' in tone (I guess I've just learned what wikistress is). I am also a new user. What Wiki policies should I read up on for do's and don't's? About how to handle conflict? Some of my edits are in places (not just Thessaloniki) where there seem to be real disputes. ] 13:04, 7 November 2006 (UTC)

== ] ==

Hiya Khoikhoi,

I have no idea about Kurdish history, but this pattern of people introducing unsourced, controversial edits & then being reverted doesn't bode well. Not sure if/how I can help.
Best regards,
--] 13:04, 7 November 2006 (UTC)

Thanks for your vigilance on ]. I wanted to ask you about the language of your poem. I know it isn't Vlach, it's much closer to Spanish, and you say it's from Bulgaria--Is it Ladino? --] 19:21, 7 November 2006 (UTC)

You might want to give him a level 4 warning for his edit and previous edits. Just a suggestion.] 22:01, 7 November 2006 (UTC)

== The New Zealand article ==
Hi, Khoi. I know that you've really been around the block here, so I'll ask: Do you know anything about the New Zealand or Australia articles (i.e., disputes, trolls, editing styles, etc.)? Do you keep those or related pages on your watchlist? Have you noticed any differences in styles among editors from different regions (i.e., how do Indians compare to Turks or to Aussies or Kiwis)? Is there more "clanishness" or insularity among certain groups? Thanks. ] 00:25, 8 November 2006 (UTC)

== ] ==

OK, I'll try. But could you please do me a favour and have a '''professional''' and neutral look '''as an admin'' on the nonsense some users are writing in the article ].

It's sad that you critisize us, but stay quite when leading Western scholars are insulted, and authoritative scholarly sources are dumped as "dogmatic and nationalistic".

] 02:32, 8 November 2006 (UTC)

: All sources are given in the article. The dispute is about the ''uncivilized'' manner of a few users who constantly remove other sources than those that only support their view. The ] and the ] are insulted as being ''dogmatic and nationalistic'', and leading scholars, such as ], Prof. Enoki (THE leading expert on the Hephthalites), and Prof. A.D.H. Bivar (author of the article ''Hephthalites'' in Iranica) are dumped as ''Persian nationalists''. THIS is hillarious.

: Britannica does not give any information about the origin of the Hephthalites, the Columbia Encyclopaedia claims that they were ''"either Turkic or Tibetian"''. However, these two articles are '''not''' written by experts. The most authoritative works, meaning Enoki's ''"On the origins of the Hephthalites"'' (1955) and Frye's ''"The Heritage of Central Asia"'', describe the Hephthalites as an ethnically mixed confederation, ruled by an Iranian-speaking elite. The same information is given in Iranica and Encyclopaedia of Islam.

: The mentioned users, however, delete all of these sources and simply copy and paste paragraphs from Britannica and CE into the article, further claiming that Enoki (a Japanese professor), Frye (an American professor), and the entire EI and EIr are ''dogmatic'' and ''Persian nationalistic''. Just check .

If you aren't too busy, can you look at the external links section of ]. I keep taking out what appear to be political propaganda links (which may include some language classes). Am I right to do so? Thanks--] 06:43, 8 November 2006 (UTC)

YOU NONSENSE IS NOT RELEVENT, ROSKAM IS THE WINNER OF THE 6th ...I LIVE THERE YOU Don't read and stay out..

ABC, CBS, FOX, TV...

== Pekmez ==

Can you check the recent changes on ] article? Pekmez Kola stuff was put there and now page looks awful in my opinion. I will discuss with author of the changes but first I want to hear your comments.] 19:43, 8 November 2006 (UTC)

==An interesting fact of life==
Hi. If you remember the incidents on ] and ]: ] is currently "replaced" by ]... And ] appears to be their twin brother... ] 20:11, 8 November 2006 (UTC)

== Opinion please ==

I've formulated a proposal and need to know what other people think about it. See ] (and click ''talk'' for your comments). The proposal is a result of a lengthy debate/poll in ], but it extends obviously beyond Europe, so I made a subpage before I post it in ]. Thanks. ] 23:00, 8 November 2006 (UTC)

==]'s edits in ] article==
As you've already realized, this user tries to attach links to genocide articles without any reference or proper mention of Atatürk's involvement in the article. I left a comment on ], but I'm not sure he would get my point. Could you please try to take care of this issue? And he recently called the revert of his edits as "vandalism" and put the page in protected status, which I didn't even know could be done by a non-admin. I regret that I still haven't reply to your question about an anon's edits in the ] infobox. I will hopefully look into the matter soon. Regards, ] 23:15, 8 November 2006 (UTC)

==Caligvla==
He has now brought accusations of some sort of politically motivated conspiracy into the Armenia talk page . This is just getting more ridiculous each minute. -- ] 23:35, 8 November 2006 (UTC)

== Map ==

Thanks for fixing the image. Cheers.--] 23:48, 8 November 2006 (UTC)
:Yeah, I mean how are they "his maps" when they are uploaded in commons? :rolleyes--] 23:53, 8 November 2006 (UTC)

== Placenames ==
Sorry, I was just about to go to bed myself. It's pretty late here. ] ] 23:55, 8 November 2006 (UTC)

== Spain ==

The only thing I'm trying to "prove" is that "Spain" is pertinent to articles on Spanish autonomous communities... who could refute that? Another user deleted that entry, prioritizing uniformity to pertinency...

If you find this issue "pointless", why did you delete my "pointless" change? Sure you don't think this is pointless for any reason.

Regards

: Hello: the "standard criterion" that supports your change (a reference mentioned in the "Intro" section must not appear in "see also" section) is not met by other references in that same page (references that Asterion didn't delete, you guys don't act based on the same principles). Other prominent pages like the "United States" article don't meet this principle (please, take a look at it).

: Please let me know which is the Misplaced Pages standard on this point, if there is any, to solve this issue.

: Regards

Thank for comments. You are right. Contents of these two articles(with some small differences) app. the same. I put "Merge" tag.

You have previously edited the ] article. The article has been put up for deletion. I would like your unbiased input on the article at ]. Along with the discussion on the deletion page you can find information and discussions on this at ].

She may not be the most notable person on Misplaced Pages but she fits the notability criteria from the Misplaced Pages guideline ]. Her notability is listed in ] and restated at ].

== Ingria ==

:Can you explain me why other users repeatedly delete my links to other language wiki, but you tell me about blocking policy?!!--] 22:53, 9 November 2006 (UTC)

==]==
See the corresponding talk page. What's your opinion about the last proposal? ] 02:43, 10 November 2006 (UTC)

==Maps==
You around? I think I have a solution to the edit wars on the maps...

:Hey Khoi, got a question for you. How come you uploaded both ] and ]? As near as I can tell, they're exactly the same thing. --] 17:12, 10 November 2006 (UTC)

==Armenia strawpoll==
''NB'' '''] has now closed''', it being Friday 10th November and about 10.30am where I live. The numbers are as follows:
*'''Support''' 6 (although ]'s existence has been disputed by ].
*'''Neutral''' 1.
*'''Oppose''' 10.
As such, no mandate has appeared for making the requested changes to the article. As previously advertised, Caligvla and I are taking a break from this dispute for a week. After this, the case may be taken to the mediation cabal, although I hope to avoid this eventuality. ] 10:40, 10 November 2006 (UTC)

==Azadeh Moaveni again==
Hi KhoiKhoi. ]'s page was vandalized again. This time by a user using a similar name as yours. He was blocked too. I would suggest that we put this site under a semi-protection. What do you think about it? ] 13:28, 10 November 2006 (UTC)

== Editing protected pages ==

While I agree with your recent edit removing "Romanians" from the ], you might want to look at this: ]. In essence, by editing substance in a protected article you are forcing your point of view on the majority of editors who can't edit protected pages, which generally should not be done. <sub>└</sub>&nbsp;<sup>''']'''</sup>&nbsp;/&nbsp;<sub>''<font color="black">]</font>''</sub>&nbsp;<sup>┐</sup> 18:54, 10 November 2006 (UTC)
