User talk:Demetrios1993/Archive 5

Looks like Nalanidil is back as User:Menrot
User:Menrot is a "new" user (obviously not new) with the same agenda, behavioral clues, and same articles as Naladil. I left a message on Blablubb's talk. I think that sock puppet case needs reopening. Netherzone (talk) 16:49, 29 January 2023 (UTC)


 * @Netherzone, Why are you taking Rombase as a source without permission and why are you falsifying there text?
 * Your falsifying on the Article is: ``During the population exchange between Greece and Turkey, the Christian and Greek Sepeticides remained in Greece, (The source didnt say that) as did the Muslims who adopted the Orthodox religion or The Sepečides Romani who were Greek  (They source didnt say that), or converted to the Greek-orthodox faith and remained in Greece after 1923 moved south to settle in Volos. and The Sevlengere on the island of Skyros are Greek Roma  (you deleted the sources) or are the descendants of the Muslim Roma who stayed and converted to Greek Orthodox''. And this is absolutly false Some of the Orthodox Sevlengere also settled in Volax. Where in the source said this people are sepecides? did you read the source about Volax?
 * While the source of Rombase said clearly http://rombase.uni-graz.at/cgi-bin/art.cgi?src=data/ethn/work/basket.en.xml#nidm139788003815024:
 * Their ancestors lived as nomads in the area of Saloniki up to the war between Greece and Turkey (1920 – 1921). After the Treaty of Lausanne (1923), in which a population exchange was agreed on, they had the choice to either change their religion or to leave Greece. So, the Sepečides split up into a "Turkish" and a "Greek" group. The Turkish group traveled to Mersin and the Izmir area, those who stayed in Greece converted to Greek-Orthodox faith, left Saloniki and moved to Volos.:   So, quite clearly: Before 1923 there were no Christian Orthodox sepecides, but only at 1923.

So your statements are simply your own wish, because you hate Turks. In addition, Nalanidil and sockpuppets are globally blocked, the idea that others also recognize what is happening here doesn't you come up with? Menrot (talk) 17:33, 29 January 2023 (UTC)

Demitrios, Sock is now blocked. Sorry to clutter up your talk page with this nonsense. Hopefully they will not be back again. Netherzone (talk) 21:36, 29 January 2023 (UTC)


 * Apologies for the delayed response, and thanks for reaching out and letting me know . Do not hesitate to contact me again if you notice any suspicious behavior that relates to User:Nalanidil; they will probably be back again. Also, take note that this sockmaster is involved in cross-wiki abuse. Demetrios1993 (talk) 05:43, 2 February 2023 (UTC)

If you care
You seem to constantly be on the Drew Pavlou article a lot given the article history log. So I assume you care for it or at least patrol it. But there's this seemingly enthusiastic fan of Drew, (PatrickBatemanWiki) who has been puffing up Drew and adding in unsourced falsehoods. The issue is that he claimed international students had sent him death threats when the provided sources, had said no such thing. Or strongly take sides as if Drew is to be assumed to be correct when he accused London police of illegal treatment. And makes loaded statements as if it's a fact that Drew got mistreated. I corrected those edits but don't want to waste any more time edit warring with him. If you care about factual accuracies and are against unsourced falsehoods, thought you should probably know and this is just a courtesy message. 49.186.55.170 (talk) 05:37, 13 February 2023 (UTC)

Vurg from Greek Vourkos
Hi there, hope you are doing well! There is a discussion here: Talk:Vurg about the subject. I also recently noticed that even Demiraj is clear about the etymology deriving from Greek Vourkos (full citation here []). He actually agrees with Kyriazis on this etymology. I noticed that you have access to Filip Liço (2009), I wonder what does he state about this?Alexikoua (talk) 04:32, 3 March 2023 (UTC)

Your eyes on other IE-related articles...
...would be much appreciated, e.g. in Talk:Balto-Slavic languages and Balto-Slavic languages (quite quiet at the moment, but regularly coming under fringe-pushing attacks). Austronesier (talk) 13:01, 25 February 2023 (UTC)


 * Sure thing ; i will be keeping an eye on it from now on. Demetrios1993 (talk) 02:33, 6 March 2023 (UTC)

Re:Megisti :-)
Hallo Demetrios, I didn't know this rule existed. One never stops learning...sorry and thanks for the explanation! Kalimera, Alex2006 (talk) 07:08, 2 August 2023 (UTC)
 * No worries ; buongiorno. Demetrios1993 (talk) 02:37, 3 August 2023 (UTC)

Gurdjieff
Hi Demetrios - I have crticised today your edit on the Gurdjieff talk page for the reasons stated. If you agree please revert the edit as requested or explain your position. Londonlinks (talk) 22:04, 1 August 2023 (UTC)
 * Thanks for letting me know ; i will reply to your comment. Demetrios1993 (talk) 02:04, 2 August 2023 (UTC)


 * Hi Demetrios - I have added a further response so please review and comment on it. We need to resolve the issue so that your view that G's mother was Greek can be properly sustained - otherwise your edit should be reverted. I am not going to do that until we have thrashed out the issues and you are proven to be on weak ground and if so you must in all conscience as an editor relinquish your speculations. In other words, you must be able to come up with stronger sources than recent blogs and authors for overturning almost a century of understanding that G's mother was Armenian.


 * It is also important because people rely on Wikipedia as a reliable and trustworthy source of information and in regard to people who are dead more weight should be placed on the views of relatives of a deceased person or his or her contemporaries, whom I have quoted, than newly-baked authors or bloggers whom you have quoted. Londonlinks (talk) 20:05, 4 August 2023 (UTC)


 * , why are you informing me of your response as if i am not already monitoring the page? Haven't i been replying to your comments on a daily basis? Everything else has already been addressed in the talk page of the article. Demetrios1993 (talk) 01:55, 5 August 2023 (UTC)

Albanian-Greek border war
Hello ,

Can i make a request on the "Albanian-Greek border war of 1949 ti be brought back " maybe rather with a differebt title like "the confilct or provocations " as i saw your arguments.

Thank you Truth t (talk) 09:48, 17 August 2023 (UTC)


 * I don't agree with that. The arguments, including those of User:Cplakidas who initiated the AfD, were not limited to the title. Furthermore, there was no "conflict of provocations"; this is how Communist Albania propagated certain minor episodes that were directly related to Operation Pyrsos, which was the final phase of the Greek Civil War. Regardless of the title, it would still be a violation of WP:POVFORK. Demetrios1993 (talk) 01:47, 20 August 2023 (UTC)
 * So there is no place for arguments ? And the sources like the albanian ones or the british news papers claim an invasion.
 * But i guess i cant change your mind.
 * Thank you Truth t (talk) 07:18, 20 August 2023 (UTC)


 * There was a place and a time for arguments. The sources you are referring to have already been discussed; you know that. Demetrios1993 (talk) 03:16, 22 August 2023 (UTC)
 * Yes, i know . But im saying some were just looked over as ,well it was just border clashes but not war . Thats why i proposed a name change Truth t (talk) 07:13, 22 August 2023 (UTC)

EPIRUS
Hello, I take the opportunity to draw your attention to the return to the previous state of the edits on Epirus. You have not provided any argument that contradicts my edits as there is also no argument or reference to verify what was written Melo.berati (talk) 13:18, 3 September 2023 (UTC)


 * The article Epirus (ancient state) is well referenced. Please, don't add fringe, unsourced, anachronistic, and off-topic content. The article is about the ancient kingdom of Epirus, which existed between 330 and 167 BC. Demetrios1993 (talk) 01:35, 4 September 2023 (UTC)

Agathodaemon
Hello my can you add to the page of agathodaemon that they are also psychopomp beings and spirits of fertility, good luck, grain, harvest, health, house, protection, wealth and wisdom because they are sources from a lot of pages. Please it is important. You can find it in Agathodaemons in durban. 2A02:587:1F0B:C000:FCCF:41D5:7F77:4757 (talk) 15:37, 3 September 2023 (UTC)


 * Judging from the history of Agathodaemon, i see that there is no consensus for what you are asking me to do. You are apparently a sockpuppet of User:Akaora; please, stop trying to circumvent your indefinite block, by asking others to edit for you. Demetrios1993 (talk) 01:46, 4 September 2023 (UTC)

Revision to basic introduction to Thassos
It is a fact that the island hosted 1.5 million visitors over the period of June, July and August 2023.

It is also a fact that the island is now heavily reliant on tourism as nearly everything closes at the end of the season.

I think that you will find that now traditional occupations contribute very little as most people are chasing the easy money. Traditional meaning Bee keeping, olives and related, livestock, fishing etc.

Sli23121953 (talk) 05:07, 19 September 2023 (UTC)


 * Being heavily reliant on tourism, which i don't dispute, is one thing; hosting 1.5 million visitors during the months of June, July, and August 2023, is another. If the latter is a fact, as you say, then it shouldn't be hard finding reliable sources supporting the claim; per WP:Verifiability. I rephrased the sentence per what says. Demetrios1993 (talk) 02:08, 23 September 2023 (UTC)
 * The figures of visitors to the island are published annually and are a matter of public record (if you care to look) Sli23121953 (talk) 02:56, 23 September 2023 (UTC)
 * I don't have time to look for the records you refer to. If you share a link supporting your claim, i will make sure to reinstate the information myself, with a proper reference. Demetrios1993 (talk) 03:00, 23 September 2023 (UTC)
