Edit-warring

I see you're back, and have resumed your bad old edit-warring habits. In this instance, I noticed you reverted me instantly. Do you really think that is a good idea? We had total peace and quiet for the month that you were blocked, which ended the second your block expired. Tenet has ancestry from Himara, Albania does NOT have MEPs, (and isn't going to for the foreseeable future), and no one's ever heard of this Anagnosti fellow outside Albania. The fact that there is a page in the Albanian wikipedia means nothing, only English language sources will do. Consider this your final warning. --Athenean (talk) 19:09, 21 August 2009 (UTC)

I have reported you for you outrageous edit on the fustanella article. Tenet has partial ancestry in a village of Himara and Nikollaq Neranxi is MEP in the Albanian parliament. No one has ever heard of Vasil Bollano outside of Albanian either. Read talk page. I will report you on your threats and behavior as well.--I Pakapshem (talk) 19:14, 21 August 2009 (UTC)

Athenean, what do you find so revolting about the image from Fustanella? I don't see any major problems with this particular image, and I don't believe including this in the article will make it look less appealing. Nishkid64 _{(Make articles, not wikidrama)} 19:33, 21 August 2009 (UTC)

The image of the old man wearing the fustanella is not revolting at all, but in actuality quite beautiful and a true representation of the fustanella. Athenean's problem is that the image is of an Cham Albanin man wearing the fustanella and in his nationalistic point of view this does not sit well with him.--I Pakapshem (talk) 19:35, 21 August 2009 (UTC)

I propose that the article be returned to its original state before Athenean made his revert and be protected from this type of reverts from happening again.--I Pakapshem (talk) 19:37, 21 August 2009 (UTC)

(@Nishkid) I find the picture of the old man rather hideous, quite frankly, but that is my own personal aesthetic opinion. The other problem is that including no less than 3 Albanians wearing fustanella at the top of the article is POV pushing by insinuation. The article is full of it. Witness the other nonsense in the text about it being inherited from the Illyrians. Users like I Pakapshem want this image there to push the point that it is Albanian, Albanian, and by the way, Albanian. There are already 3 images of a fustanella. Isn't that enough? How many more do we need? --Athenean (talk) 21:00, 21 August 2009 (UTC)

The fustanella is Albanian and this is in the article, cited, and you can't contest that so rather you focus on the wonderful picture. My personal opinion is that the greek version of the fustanella is rather hideous, ridiculous and resembles a miniskirt, but I am not asking for the greek picture to be removed. Get over your nationalistic point of view and leave the wonderful photo alone.--I Pakapshem (talk) 21:09, 21 August 2009 (UTC)

Famous Himariots

I noticed the edit war at Himarë about famous Himariots. Regarding Anagnosti: see the Albanian article. This does not connect him with Himara. Even the IMDB article thinks he was born in Vlore. Still, I think that there may be a chance to document some of the people further. I looked at the list from the Albanian article on Himara (below). The ones who were members of parliament we can surely justify including in the list, using official sites. Paskal Milo has an Albanian article and probably somebody could write an English article on him based on official web sites. Since we was the foreign minister, he is obviously notable. (There is even a short bio of him on a Council of Europe site). Also he is mentioned in books.google.com. Do you have the patience to document some of these people further? This might help resolve the war. I am pleased to note that translate.google.com can translate from Albanian to English. Unfortunately the Albanian WP articles haven't got many sources, but one could do fresh Google searches on the people below. EdJohnston (talk) 01:33, 22 August 2009 (UTC)

IMBD says incorretly he is born in Vlore because Vuno, the village he was born in, is part of the county of Vlore just like the whole Himare region. Anagnosti is definetly a native himariot. On the other hand, somebody like Bollano who is temporary mayor of Himara, is not a native Himariot, his wiki English article is very poor and his notoriety is extremely negative in Albania. If Bollano has a place in the article, Anagnosti definetly has a place.--I Pakapshem (talk) 02:19, 22 August 2009 (UTC)

ARBMAC restrictions

Under the terms of Misplaced Pages:Requests for arbitration/Macedonia I am placing you on a one revert per week limitation on all articles within the area of conflict defined in that case. You are prohibited from making more than one reversion per week per article, not including obvious vandalism. A reversion is any edit that substantially restores the article to prior content, whether or not it is a reversion in the purely technical sense. All reversions must be discussed on the article talk page. Violations will result in escalating blocks. You may request to have the 1RR limit reviewed or lifted after 3 months. Nishkid64 (Make articles, not wikidrama) 18:32, 22 August 2009 (UTC)

To me, this seems like the only option to get you to engage strictly in talk page discussion rather than edit warring. Nishkid64 _{(Make articles, not wikidrama)} 18:32, 22 August 2009 (UTC)

I will not revert the edit made to Fustanella or Himare. I request that you engage in discussion on the article talk page to resolve all conflicts. It might be helpful to request an outside opinion on the matters. Nishkid64 _{(Make articles, not wikidrama)}

IRC Discussion

chzz and I, fixed your image licensing and description. Before you upload another picture you may want to read WP:UPI --Alarichus (talk) 23:01, 28 August 2009 (UTC)

Your personal 1RR restriction at Peshkëpi incident

Please undo your last revert at Peshkëpi incident. By doing so you may avoid a block. The matter has been discussed at User talk:Nishkid64#I Pakapshem. The 1RR restriction comes from ARBMAC via User talk:I Pakapshem#ARBMAC_restrictions. EdJohnston (talk) 21:08, 15 September 2009 (UTC)

Done--I Pakapshem (talk) 21:31, 15 September 2009 (UTC)

WP:ANI

A case has opened in WP:ANI involving you here--Michael X the White (talk) 20:17, 25 September 2009 (UTC)

Empty and baseless accusations because I'm impeding you guy's version of Megali Idea against all things Albanian from happening.--I Pakapshem (talk) 23:53, 25 September 2009 (UTC)

blocked

Per WP:ARBMAC you are blocked for a week and topic-banned for a month from all articles relating to Albania. Any violation of this will be met with an indefinite block. Clear? Moreschi (talk) 00:49, 26 September 2009 (UTC)

I know the ARBMAC restriction and have not broken it anywhere. Not clear at all.--I Pakapshem (talk) 01:03, 26 September 2009 (UTC)

I Pakapshem (block log • active blocks • global blocks • contribs • deleted contribs • filter log • creation log • change block settings • unblock • checkuser (log))

Request reason:

I have not broken the ARBMAC restriction of 1 revert per week per article in disputed area. Block is unwarranted.--I Pakapshem (talk) 14:24, 26 September 2009 (UTC)

Decline reason:

This arbitration enforcement action can only be reviewed by means of the procedure described in Misplaced Pages:ARBMAC#Appeal of discretionary sanctions. If you would like to appeal to the administrators' noticeboard, please give your reasons below and use the {{helpme}} tag to ask a user to copy them to WP:AN. If you want to appeal to the imposing administrator or to WP:ARBCOM, use e-mail.  Sandstein  15:57, 26 September 2009 (UTC)

If you want to make any further unblock requests, please read the guide to appealing blocks first, then use the {{unblock}} template again. If you make too many unconvincing or disruptive unblock requests, you may be prevented from editing this page until your block has expired. Do not remove this unblock review while you are blocked.

I have not broken the arbitration enforcement though. This is really unfair. It seems that all the admins I deal with make arbitrary decision based on bogus accusations by some other editors. Yet these editors turn everything upside down and don't even get as much as a warning.--I Pakapshem (talk) 16:07, 26 September 2009 (UTC)

Himariote Greek Dialect

What's the problem with both phd dissertations? I feel you just have not read them enough. Himariote shares many archaic features of medieval Greek language.Alexikoua (talk) 22:23, 1 December 2009 (UTC)

• I read them, but the conclusion remains the same, none of them actually mentions such a "himariote dialect". Many parts of the article, are just copyedits, with no actual relation to the article. And factically nowhere in the net is there found something which says "himariote greek dialect".--I Pakapshem (talk) 11:28, 2 December 2009 (UTC)

Blocked

You had your warning. See you summer 2010, and it's purely because I'm in a good mood that this block isn't indef. Moreschi (talk) 18:29, 3 December 2009 (UTC)

• Yeah, that bothers you but their tagteaming never does . Btw learn to use block tags, unless you want to stop others from appealing your decisions. --I Pakapshem (talk) 18:37, 3 December 2009 (UTC)

There's nothing wrong with how you were notified of the block. There's plenty wrong with you needing to be blocked.Toddst1 (talk) 19:20, 3 December 2009 (UTC)

Vandalism by User:Athenean

{{adminhelp}} I am blocked for 6 months, and a few days ago User:Athenean removed in Plaka content I had added with 4 REFERENCES, by saying "rv banned user". I am NOT banned, and what Athenean user did is vandalism. Here is his edit . It should also be noted that he is being given barnstars by his two tag-teamates in wikipedia Alexikoua and Tadija, who want to help him get a real status. Strangely he was restricted from editing Balkans-related articles until 1 month ago. That shows that these two users are just trying to help him, so they can tag-team together.--I Pakapshem (talk) 01:00, 1 January 2010 (UTC)

With the link you gave, it doesn't say you are banned, it was the user who edited after you who got the content removed. Does this help?--Cubs197 01:09, 1 January 2010 (UTC)

That's what I'm saying! He removed my totally VALID edit, by saying that I am banned, but I AM NOT banned! Do you understand?? That is 100% vandalism and manipulation! Action should be taken.--I Pakapshem (talk) 01:12, 1 January 2010 (UTC)

I have restored the edits and left a note on Athenean's talk page explaining you are only blocked 6 months, not banned, and that if s/he would like to discuss it further for him/her to come to my talk page. Cheers, Ks0stm If you reply here, please leave me a {{Talkback}} message on my talk page. 02:30, 1 January 2010 (UTC)

Admin needed

{{adminhelp}} User:Alexikoua is changing a sentence based on 4 references in Plaka. Check this dif . The references say that it was named the Albanian quarter and dont comment on anything else. This user deliberately tried to manipulate that. Action should be taken. Also check the conversation above this one where User:Athenean who is tagteaming with User:Alexikoua tried to remove it but he was reverted by a rollbacker. So now that they can't remove the info, they are trying to change it!--I Pakapshem (talk) 17:47, 5 January 2010 (UTC)

Since you are blocked, you should not edit nor try to make others edit for you. Regards SoWhy 18:11, 5 January 2010 (UTC)

Obviously I am not editing any articles. And I am not trying to "get you to edit" anything, I am reporting a CASE.--I Pakapshem (talk) 18:34, 5 January 2010 (UTC)
