Hello, I'm Sumanuil. I noticed that you added or changed content in an article, Wikipedia:Naming conventions (Ukrainian places), but you didn't provide a reliable source. It's been removed and archived in the page history for now, but if you'd like to include a citation and re-add it, please do so. You can have a look at referencing for beginners. If you think I made a mistake, you can leave me a message on my talk page. A URL in an edit summary isn't a reference.  -   Sumanuil  '''. ''' (talk to me) 20:03, 27 April 2024 (UTC)


 * But this is not an actile, this is an information page. Aldij (talk) 09:09, 28 April 2024 (UTC)


 * It's a template warning (or in other words, a form letter), and I was just annoyed that you put your source in the edit summary, which isn't normally good enough.  -  Sumanuil  .  (talk to me) 03:01, 29 April 2024 (UTC)

Category:Middle Eastern people of Jewish descent
Hello, Aldij,

Why are you emptying this category "out of process"? It contained valid subcategories and you left no edit summary explaining your actions. If you believe a category should be renamed, merged or deleted, please make a proposal at WP:CFD, do not just remove all of the contents of a category. And please include edit summaries with your edits or you might find yourself regularly reverted. Thank you. Liz Read! Talk! 20:16, 8 May 2024 (UTC)


 * Hello, Aldij,
 * You are continuing to empty categories "out of process". Please stop doing this. If you have questions, please bring them to the Teahouse. Liz Read! Talk! 22:19, 9 May 2024 (UTC)

Hello. Thank you for your contributions to Wikipedia. I noticed that one or more recent edit(s) you made did not have an edit summary. You can use the edit summary field to explain your reasoning for an edit, or to provide a description of what the edit changes. Summaries save time for other editors and reduce the chances that your edit will be misunderstood. For some edits, an adequate summary may be quite brief.

The edit summary field looks like this:

Please provide an edit summary for every edit you make. With a Wikipedia account you can give yourself a reminder by setting, and then click the "Save" button. Thanks! Liz Read! Talk! 20:17, 8 May 2024 (UTC)

Incoherent categorization
We currently have a chaotic naming pattern where some Jewish sub-national diaspora categories have names like Category:Georgian-Jewish culture or Category:Russian-Jewish culture in the United States while others have names like Category:Syrian-Jewish diaspora or Category:Russian-Jewish diaspora. I suppose that a broad discussion on what to call all of these categories would be a lot of work, but I'm afraid that hen-pecking away at individual categories only creates a situation where there is no consistency. Whatever these categories are to be called, they should be consistent. 00:14, 12 May 2024 (UTC) Bohemian Baltimore (talk) 00:14, 12 May 2024 (UTC)


 * @Bohemian Baltimore, yes, I also value consistency. Now, all the subcategories of category:Mizrahi Jewish culture are named consistently. Aldij (talk) 11:47, 12 May 2024 (UTC)

North Macedonia
I think your argument we should rename the categories to People from North Macedonia is totally on point. We are not bound by treaties. We are not obligated to name any categories using demonyms. We only do so when using them is clear and unambiguous. Macedonian is neither. It is used for unrelated groups that in one case are Greek the other Slav. We need yo make it clear this is a Category for nationals of a particular country. That is not even remotely clear with the current category name.John Pack Lambert (talk) 04:02, 23 May 2024 (UTC)
