Ararat arev
It seems he broke the 3RR on this too. Haik Nareklm 20:22, 12 January 2007 (UTC)

Regarding Haik page cited sources
Eupator, what info do you need for the "Haik is used in place of Orion, in the Armenian translation of the Bible." Do you need it so have the cited source "Bible verses: Job 9:9, Job 38:22, Amos 5:7," or what else you need the date of the bible? The version of the bibles of Armenian and English to show that it is really Haik in Armenian, and Orion in English of those "verses" ? So what info you need for the source Ararat arev 22:43, 14 January 2007 (UTC)

So the Bible is not a reliable source? Ararat arev 23:03, 14 January 2007 (UTC)

Someone can look at the Bible and see that, specially when they are Armenian reading both languages. You can even check now you read Armenian? Ararat arev 23:04, 14 January 2007 (UTC)

Ok, so Vahan Kurkjian mentioned it? Good. Dont worry about the Sumerian issues. I'll get reliable sources when I find them, and discuss first in Talk pages dont worry. Ararat arev 23:32, 14 January 2007 (UTC)

Make sure to put in the Orion_constellation|Orion link. Vahan also states its the Orion star constellation Ararat arev 23:55, 14 January 2007 (UTC)

Vahan Kurkjian mentioned as you said the location of Mitanni in Armenia. Also, look how far Persians and Indians are now? The Indo-Aryan people that is. Sanskrit is also Proto-IE.Ararat arev 01:54, 15 January 2007 (UTC)

Dacy69
Hello again Eupator. Dacy69 has called for me to look into the current editing of Urartu, which I will do. He has also mentioned that he feels he is being stalked. It does strike me that he has a point when you follow his comment on my talk page with a comment of your own. You are an experienced and valued editor on Wikipedia, yet you do appear to be getting a little too personal and emotional in regard to Dacy69 and his editing. It doesn't look good for you when you present evidence of wikistalking at the time when an editor is complaining about such activity! Stay cool. Concentrate on the article, and let the appropriate Wikipedians take care of complaints. I would strongly advise you to take care in your dealings with editors with whom you are in dispute. Remain civil. And do not pounce on comments they make on other's talk pages. I'll now be looking at the recent edits made to the Urartu article. Regards. SilkTork 08:38, 17 January 2007 (UTC)

Urartu
I am working my way through the recent edits of the Urartu article. I find your 15th January edit of the article inappropriate. You are introducing a heavy weighted and unfounded political debate and inappropriate language history into a section of the article that is dealing with Ethnic Composition. Given the recent edit dispute with this article, and my own involvement as Advocate, this is a provocative thing to do. SilkTork 19:13, 17 January 2007 (UTC)

AMA
Just to let you know I will be helping in the dispute you are in. Do you know the policy Ownership_of_articles? I feel as if you think you own the article and you don't want anyone else editing it, am I right? If I am right then you are breaking this policy. Also if you reverted his edits without looking at them like he said then you are sending the message that you do not care about what he rights. Assume good faith, even if he is wrong assume that he is doing for the good of wikipedia. You should Stay away from deleting info if it talkes about trying not to delete info with Verifiable and a Reliable source. Also I would like you to look at Resolving disputes. Have a nice week and god bless. --James, La gloria è a dio 15:04, 18 January 2007 (UTC)
 * If this person has given a reliable resource then when you delete it you are breaking wikipedia policies. If it is unsourced then you are not. Peace. --James, La gloria è a dio 16:00, 18 January 2007 (UTC)
 * Encyclopædia Iranica is a reliable resource and the ressource for this info is from Encyclopædia Iranica. Unless you can find a reliable resource against this then when you are taking it out you are breaking the policies. You can not take out factual info from articles because you do not like it. For a example if I had my way I would take out the part in the christmas tree article that calls it pagan but I can't because there is reliable resources backing it up. Have a nice week sir. --James, La gloria è a dio 17:11, 18 January 2007 (UTC)
 * There is no reason to be talking about blocks. Please stop it. Thanks. --James, La gloria è a dio 20:00, 18 January 2007 (UTC)

 * Just to let you know we are going to talk about this on my desk from now on. Have a nice week and god bless you and everyone you know. --James, La gloria è a dio 23:22, 20 January 2007 (UTC)

Prohaeresius
....speaking of which
 * Prohaeresius needed just a little Wikification (mostly just paragraph breaks); I gave it such and moved it to DYK next update. It's a very good article and I enjoyed reading it.
 * The problem with using the term "Zakarid-Mxargrzeli" rather than "Mkhargrdzeli" in the Ani article is that the later term has a reference in the Ani article, the former doesn't. You did a great job with references in the Prohaeresius article...just do the same with this edit and it will be good.  Thanks, House of Scandal 04:47, 19 January 2007 (UTC)

Eupator, please refrain from reverting back to Golbez's biased intro without consulting the archivs first, if you did you would see that that was not the intro we all agreed upon (just look at how the "Armenian region" is completely taken out of context and causes that sentence to take on a one-sided POV, no one ever agreed to that).HyeProfile 00:17, 23 March 2007 (UTC)

Dear Eupator!

I understood that you are an English native speaker and you worked on pages related to Iran. Then I would like to aks you to see my works on Iranian cinema and in particular Abbas Kiarostami. I would like to have comments from people to have an idea of my works' possible shortcommings. Thanks for your time. Sangak 21:02, 2 February 2007 (UTC)

Nakhichevan
Hey Eup, could you look over the early history of the Nakhichevan article? I want to make sure that it's accurate. It seems as though we're missing significant details from the second and third paragraphs. -- Aivazovsky 21:18, 6 February 2007 (UTC)

Location Maps
On the WikiProject Countries talk page, you had either explictly declared a general interest in the project, or had participated at a discussion that appears related to Location Maps for European countries. New maps had been created by David Liuzzo, and are available for the countries of the European continent, and for countries of the European Union exist in two versions. From November 16, 2006 till January 31, 2007, a poll had tried to find a consensus for usage of 'old' or of which and where 'new' version maps. At its closing, 25 people had spoken in favor of either of the two presented usages of new versions but neither version had reached a consensus (12 and 13), and 18 had preferred old maps. As this outcome cannot justify reverting of new maps that had become used for some countries, seconds before February 5, 2007 a survey started that will be closed at February 20, 2007 23:59:59. It should establish whether the new style maps may be applied as soon as some might become available for countries outside the European continent (or such to depend on future discussions), and also which new version should be applied for which countries. Please note that since January 1, 2007 all new maps became updated by David Liuzzo (including a world locator, enlarged cut-out for small countries) and as of February 4, 2007 the restricted licence that had jeopardized their availability on Wikimedia Commons, became more free. The subsections on the talk page that had shown David Liuzzo's original maps, now show his most recent design. Please read the discussion (also in other sections α, β, γ, δ, ε, ζ, η, θ) and in particular the arguments offered by the forementioned poll, while realizing some comments to have been made prior to updating the maps, and all prior to modifying the licences, before carefully reading the '''presentation of the currently open survey. You are invited''' to only then finally make up your mind and vote for only one option. There mustnot be 'oppose' votes; if none of the options would be appreciated, you could vote for the option you might with some effort find least difficult to live with - rather like elections only allowing to vote for one of several candidates. Obviously, you are most welcome to leave a brief argumentation with your vote. Kind regards. — SomeHuman 7 Feb2007 20:10 (UTC)

Varazdat

Armenians
I understood your point but I also said that since you show Nagorno-Karabakh as a separate entity on that list, you already automatically imply that it is de facto independent. Reference to Azerbaijan must be made because the status of Nagorno-Karabakh is different from that of Russia, France, Iran or Lebanon, which are mentioned concurrently. Since it is not possible for Azerbaijan to appear on that list, some credit to it must be given; you cannot disregard it completely unless Nagorno-Karabakh is officially independent. As for the category, I don't see why you have to attach any footnotes to it. Even if you don't agree with it in terms of the NK issue, some Armenians still live in Azerbaijan outside of NK, thus the category seems perfectly suitable. Parishan 20:12, 15 February 2007 (UTC)
 * That footnote is more apt when you add the category, rather than when you remove it. It makes much more sense to show 'Ethnic groups in Azerbaijan' and to add that according to Nationmaster.com:Azerbaijan "almost all Armenians live in the separatist Nagorno-Karabakh region". And the footnote does not cover the de facto vs. de juro issue at all. Parishan 20:24, 15 February 2007 (UTC)
 * You haven't given any reasonable justification why the 'Ethnic groups in Azerbaijan' category shouldn't be shown. Why is there "no way"? Like I said, that category covers Nagorno-Karabakh, and the footnote as well as the infobox clearly explain that when one speaks of Armenians in Azerbaijan, it's mostly de facto independent Nagorno-Karabakh that is concerned. Parishan 21:07, 15 February 2007 (UTC)
 * The whole current status information is right on display, in the infobox. Besides, sources like CIA, Nationmaster and even Wikipedia itself list Armenians among ethnic groups that live in Azerbaijan. I don't understand how this shouldn't be the case with the Armenians article. Parishan 21:32, 15 February 2007 (UTC)

Blocked
Your recent spate of edit warring today is unacceptable. Three reverts at both Tigranes the Great and Nakhichevan and more at Urartu, plus uncivil accusations of vandalism, are unproductive.

Fair use rationale for Image:Uliss Erevan.gif
Thanks for uploading or contributing to Image:Uliss Erevan.gif. I notice the image page specifies that the image is being used under fair use but there is no explanation or rationale as to why its use in Wikipedia articles constitutes fair use. In addition to the boilerplate fair use template, you must also write out on the image description page a specific explanation or rationale for why using this image in each article is consistent with fair use.

Please go to the image description page and edit it to include a fair use rationale. Using one of the templates at Fair use rationale guideline is an easy way to insure that your image is in compliance with Wikipedia policy, but remember that you must complete the template. Do not simply insert a blank template on an image page.

If you have uploaded other fair use media, consider checking that you have specified the fair use rationale on those pages too. You can find a list of 'image' pages you have edited by clicking on the "my contributions" link (it is located at the very top of any Wikipedia page when you are logged in), and then selecting "Image" from the dropdown box. Note that any fair use images uploaded after 4 May, 2006, and lacking such an explanation will be deleted one week after they have been uploaded, as described on criteria for speedy deletion. If you have any questions please ask them at the Media copyright questions page. Thank you.BetacommandBot 16:26, 4 June 2007 (UTC)

Non-free use disputed for Image:YBC logo.jpg
Thanks for uploading Image:YBC logo.jpg. However, there is a concern that the rationale you have provided for using this image under "fair use" may be invalid. Please read the instructions at Non-free content carefully, then go to the image description page and clarify why you think the image qualifies for fair use.

Armenian Genocide - Armeniapedia link being attacked
Folks, it seems the integrity of Armeniapedia as a valid source is under attack on the Armenian Genocide article. One Turk simply questioned it, and the very same day another user immediately removed it without any discussion. Now these 3 are preventing the reversion to add the link, which as I state there has possibly the largest collection of digital documents on the genocide. It's amazing to me, and I hope some of you are actually around to vouch for the site, as these folks don't seem to have actually even visited the site, or really care if it's of any value, instead asking irrelevant questions like, "what if there was a Turkopedia, would we include that??". Your input would be appreciated. --RaffiKojian 17:15, 2 October 2007 (UTC)

Franco-Mongol alliance
Thank you Eupator for the Barnstar! I truly appreciate! You are probably right that the Delaborde painting belongs to Gosdantin III of Armenia. You are also right for the translation of the title: "Knights of the Order of St. John of Jerusalem Restoring Religion in Armenia in 1347", but according to Mutafian, this seems to be derived from a 19th century mis-interpretation of a 1347 Papal bulle. Best regards. PHG 20:12, 14 October 2007 (UTC)
 * Erm, Eupator, please be aware that much of the information in the Franco-Mongol alliance article is under dispute, multiple editors have criticized PHG for biased editing and for violating WP:OWN (just check the talkpage), there have been multiple WP:ANI threads about it, and that the article is currently subject to an active Mediation. That said, I do agree that PHG has done quite a bit of good work on the article, and it is of course up to you or not as to whether or not you wish to hand out barnstars.  Just wanted to make you aware.   :)  --Elonka 20:53, 14 October 2007 (UTC)

Armenian history
Sure, why not? I'd have to scout around for a few more sources but I do have Hovannisian and Grousset to hand (Grousset is old but still useful if handled with care - he sums up the accounts of classical Greek, Roman, Armenian etc. historians quite nicely). So I can at least take part in a basic clean-up. Oh, and I'm not Cornish. I don't really mind Queen Teuta of Illyria either. Most of those userboxes are just parodies of things I've seen around Wikipedia. --Folantin (talk) 21:43, 23 November 2007 (UTC)
 * PS:I've just seen you've mentioned FA. I have my doubts about the FA process but I'd be happy to help out improving an article with you. Do you have any ideas yourself? Ancient to late medieval would be a good area. Nothing too early (certainly not Urartu!). --Folantin (talk) 21:45, 23 November 2007 (UTC)
 * OK, let's do Cilicia first, then Tigranes, then maybe a Bagratid (hmm, Ashot the Great? But let's wait and see). I also have plans to rewrite the article about Armenia and the various Persian Empires more thoroughly, but not until early next year. Cheers. --Folantin (talk) 08:31, 24 November 2007 (UTC)
 * I suggest we make any comments we have about improvement on the talk page of the Cilicia article rather than here. --Folantin (talk) 09:00, 24 November 2007 (UTC)
 * NB: If you don't see any action from me on Cilicia for a few days, it's just that I'm re-reading the sources I have available. --Folantin (talk) 19:28, 26 November 2007 (UTC)

Apologies for not getting round to this (still). It'll probably be early January before I tackle it since I'll be having a break from WP for the next few weeks - give or take a few edits. Merry Christmas and a Happy New Year. --Folantin (talk) 19:37, 19 December 2007 (UTC)

Requests for adminship/Elonka 3
Thank you for your participation in my RfA. It was definitely a dramatic debate that landed on WP:100, but ultimately was deemed a successful declaration of consensus, and I am now an administrator. I paid close attention to everything that was said in the debate, and where possible, I will try to incorporate the (constructive) criticism towards being a better admin. I am going to take things slowly for now -- I'm working my way through the New admin school, double-checking the relevant policies, and will gradually phase into the use of the new tools. I sincerely doubt you'll see anything controversial coming from my new access level. My main goals are to help out with various backlogs, though I also fully intend to keep on writing articles, as there are a few more that I definitely want to get to WP:FA status. If you do ever have any concerns about my activities as an administrator, I encourage you to let me know. My door is always open. --Elonka 02:30, 21 December 2007 (UTC)

Fair use rationale for Image:Ravished-armenia1.jpg
Thanks for uploading or contributing to Image:Ravished-armenia1.jpg. I notice the image page specifies that the image is being used under fair use but there is not a suitable explanation or rationale as to why each specific use in Wikipedia constitutes fair use. Please go to the image description page and edit it to include a fair use rationale.

If you have uploaded other fair use media, consider checking that you have specified the fair use rationale on those pages too. You can find a list of 'image' pages you have edited by clicking on the "my contributions" link (it is located at the very top of any Wikipedia page when you are logged in), and then selecting "Image" from the dropdown box. Note that any non-free media lacking such an explanation will be deleted one week after they have been uploaded, as described on criteria for speedy deletion.

Thank you Eupator for your support on the Franco-Mongol alliance page. I really appreciate. I finally resolved to file a claim against Elonka's aggresive actions. It is at Administrators' noticeboard/IncidentArchive814. Comments are welcome. Regards. PHG (talk) 13:47, 1 January 2008 (UTC)
 * Eupator, just as a reminder, please remember that you are under sanctions concerning Armenia-related articles, of which the article on Franco-Mongol alliance definitely applies. If you wish to engage in civil and good faith discussions about the article content, I encourage you to participate.  However, simply trying to intimidate other editors away from participation, (especially considering that your comments are directed at me, and I've had very little participation in that topic for weeks) could be seen as a violation of your sanctions.  As I quote from the "Civility parole" section: "If you make any edits which are judged by an administrator to be uncivil, personal attacks, or assumptions of bad faith, then you may be blocked for a short time of up to one week for repeat offenses."  Please be more careful in the future. --Elonka 20:03, 3 January 2008 (UTC)

Dynasties
Greetings Eupator, I’m currently trying to develop a series of articles on Armenian-Georgian nobility and dynastic intermarriages, but my time is currently very limited and information is frequently conflicting due partly to some ethnocentrist bias in Caucasian historiographies. I was just wondering if you have any info on the dynastic relations between Gregorids and Pahlavuni. I’d also ask you to add an Armenian spelling to the Gregorids article. Thanks, KoberTalk 08:14, 18 January 2008 (UTC)


 * Ah, they both appear to be of Arsacid stock. Thanks anyway,--KoberTalk 08:19, 18 January 2008 (UTC)


 * Thanks for your reply on Pahlavunis. I think I can help with Melikovs and Argutinskys. I will need a few days, though.--KoberTalk 19:25, 19 January 2008 (UTC)


 * I added some more info to Argutinsky-Dolgorukov and started Melikov. Btw, do those tombstones contain Armenian spellings of their surnames or just use Russian forms? --KoberTalk 07:30, 23 January 2008 (UTC)


 * Hi Eupator. Thanks for the images. Argutinsky had no connection to the Rurikids. And you're right about the Loris-Melikovs. I'll correct that. Best, --KoberTalk 09:33, 26 January 2008 (UTC)

I did a bit more research on the family. Their Rurikid connections seem to be Pyotr Dolgorukov’s exotic theory not shared by other scholars, but it would not be devoid of interest to mention this version in our article. Here’s a bio of Moisey Zakharovich Argutinsky-Dologoruky, a native of Tbilisi and an officer in the Russian army. The Argutinsky article on Russian wiki also corroborates with what we have written here. --KoberTalk 10:49, 31 January 2008 (UTC)
