Aziz Mahmud Hudayi

This is an automated message from CorenSearchBot. I have performed a web search with the contents of Aziz Mahmud Hudayi, and it appears to include a substantial copy of http://www.mevlana800.info/sufi.htm. For legal reasons, we cannot accept copyrighted text or images borrowed from other web sites or printed material; such additions will be deleted. You may use external websites as a source of information, but not as a source of sentences. See our copyright policy for further details.

This message was placed automatically, and it is possible that the bot is confused and found similarity where none actually exists. If that is the case, you can remove the tag from the article and it would be appreciated if you could drop a note on the maintainer's talk page. CorenSearchBot (talk) 18:21, 6 February 2010 (UTC)

Proposed deletion of Erzurumlu Ibrahim Hakki

The article Erzurumlu Ibrahim Hakki has been proposed for deletion because of the following concern:

Fails WP:N - no sources, and Google search turns up nothing in English. I cannot read sources in Arabic or Turkish (sorry, I'm English) so if these exist, please add them to the article to prevent deletion.

While all contributions to Misplaced Pages are appreciated, content or articles may be deleted for any of several reasons.

You may prevent the proposed deletion by removing the {{dated prod}} notice, but please explain why in your edit summary or on the article's talk page.

Please consider improving the article to address the issues raised. Removing {{dated prod}} will stop the proposed deletion process, but other deletion processes exist. The speedy deletion process can result in deletion without discussion, and articles for deletion allows discussion to reach consensus for deletion.

File permission problem with File:Abu Barakat Tomb in Maldives.jpg

Thanks for uploading File:Abu Barakat Tomb in Maldives.jpg. I noticed that while you provided a valid copyright licensing tag, there is no proof that the creator of the file agreed to license it under the given license.

If you created this media entirely yourself but have previously published it elsewhere (especially online), please either

• make a note permitting reuse under the CC-BY-SA or another acceptable free license (see this list) at the site of the original publication; or
• Send an email from an address associated with the original publication to permissions-enwikimedia.org, stating your ownership of the material and your intention to publish it under a free license. You can find a sample permission letter here. If you take this step, add {{OTRS pending}} to the file description page to prevent premature deletion.

If you did not create it entirely yourself, please ask the person who created the file to take one of the two steps listed above, or if the owner of the file has already given their permission to you via email, please forward that email to permissions-enwikimedia.org.

If you believe the media meets the criteria at Misplaced Pages:Non-free content, use a tag such as {{non-free fair use in|article name}} or one of the other tags listed at Misplaced Pages:File copyright tags#Fair use, and add a rationale justifying the file's use on the article or articles where it is included. See Misplaced Pages:File copyright tags for the full list of copyright tags that you can use.

If you have uploaded other files, consider checking that you have provided evidence that their copyright owners have agreed to license their works under the tags you supplied, too. You can find a list of files you have created in your upload log. Files lacking evidence of permission may be deleted one week after they have been tagged, as described on criteria for speedy deletion. If you have any questions please ask them at the Media copyright questions page. Thank you. Kelly 13:26, 22 December 2010 (UTC)

Some advice

I see you're having a bit of difficulty getting anything done here at Misplaced Pages. Can I suggest that you might want to read my advice to new users? It's a good place to start. Regards, TransporterMan (TALK) 20:30, 11 January 2012 (UTC)

More of the same

It's not for us to decide how to interpret history. Recent edits made by you to Hezârfen Ahmed Çelebi and Lycia seem aimed not to more accurately reflect sources, but to favour an interpretation. To be frank, several edits seem motivated by "feelings", personal disposition to the subject; this is something we all struggle with- just a well intended 'heads-up'.

Possibly unfree File:Sheikh Edebali.jpeg

If the file's copyright status cannot be verified, it may be deleted. You may find more information on the file description page. You are welcome to add comments to its entry at the discussion if you are interested in it not being deleted. Thank you. ALH (talk) 07:00, 3 June 2013 (UTC)

Malatya

I would be interested in seeing your sources that state Malatya/Melitene was taken by the Danishmend Turks in 934. --Kansas Bear (talk) 18:44, 23 September 2013 (UTC)

Sorry, I got it confused with the final 1101 taking over of the city by the Danishmend Turks. Thank you for enlightening me.Yozer1 (talk) 07:32, 24 September 2013 (UTC)

Reverts on Hasan_Cemal

I saw your reverts on Hasan_Cemal. On wikipedia, we're picky about living people, anything that's said about them has to have a reliable source behind it. Your post has what looks to be an opinion piece from a Turkish newspaper. Admittedly, I can't tell if the newspaper is reliable, the piece itself appears to not be reliable. Instead of reverting, may I suggest you place a note on our reliable sources board and ask if this is indeed a reliable source. If you keep reverting , you could be blocked for it.  KoshVorlon. We are all Kosh   17:30, 4 November 2013 (UTC)

Thank you for your notification KoshVorlon. It seems that you will accept my contributions to Hasan Cemal if I find a "reliable" source. Sure, I can do that. In fact, I can find numerous sources to justify my case. But there is no need, it is not that important. The source that I had on is admittedly from the pen of another writer. I am fluent in a couple of languages, you will have to take my word for the translation.

As for reverting, may I remind you that my contribution were deleted. I would have thought the person who removed them would be warned of vandalism. Thank you.

Your recent editing history at Erzurum shows that you are currently engaged in an edit war. Being involved in an edit war can result in your being blocked from editing—especially if you violate the three-revert rule, which states that an editor must not perform more than three reverts on a single page within a 24-hour period. Undoing another editor's work—whether in whole or in part, whether involving the same or different material each time—counts as a revert. Also keep in mind that while violating the three-revert rule often leads to a block, you can still be blocked for edit warring—even if you don't violate the three-revert rule—should your behavior indicate that you intend to continue reverting repeatedly.
