Albanian Ottoman Wars
Hi there. Thank you for your consideration. I can help on that. What do you practically need for the moment? Bests Aigest (talk) 08:05, 6 October 2015 (UTC)
 * Having trouble on the link you posted. Anyway ignoring trolling, one of the best sources on that is Selami Pulaha book here, but there are other sources too. I'll try to find them and create the article sketch than you can continue. Bests Aigest (talk) 06:54, 16 October 2015 (UTC)

ArbCom elections are now open!
Hi, You appear to be eligible to vote in the current Arbitration Committee election. The Arbitration Committee is the panel of editors responsible for conducting the Wikipedia arbitration process. It has the authority to enact binding solutions for disputes between editors, primarily related to serious behavioural issues that the community has been unable to resolve. This includes the ability to impose site bans, topic bans, editing restrictions, and other measures needed to maintain our editing environment. The arbitration policy describes the Committee's roles and responsibilities in greater detail. If you wish to participate, you are welcome to review the candidates' statements and submit your choices on the voting page.

Copyright violation
Welcome to Wikipedia. While everyone is welcome to contribute constructively to the encyclopedia, one of your recent file uploads, such as your addition to Skanderbeg, had missing or false information regarding its source and copyright status. Please note that Wikipedia takes copyright and copyright infringement very seriously. Images and other media may only be uploaded and included if their copyright status meets the conditions stated in our image use policy, and if their provenance is clearly documented. If you have questions, feel free to ask at the copyright question page or on my talk page. I reverted your addition of copyrighted text at Skanderbeg. Please be more careful in future not to add copyrighted text to wikipedia. All the best.--Antidiskriminator (talk) 00:16, 29 November 2015 (UTC)
 * I advise you to revert yourself at Skanderbeg article. You copied text from work of Babinger almost word to word. That is not allowed. Please read Close paraphrasing. All the best.--Antidiskriminator (talk) 00:22, 29 November 2015 (UTC)

Copying from public domain materials requires proper attribution
You added material to Albanian resistance during World War II copied word-for-word from http://countrystudies.us/albania/30.htm. That's okay, since the source document is a product of the US Government. But you have to provide attribution. For PD sources, this can be done by adding the template PD-notice after your citation. Please do this in the future when re-using public domain content. All content needs to be written in your own words, or properly attributed. More info on this topic can be found at Plagiarism. Any further copyright problems will result in a block, so please be more careful. -- Diannaa 🍁 (talk) 19:17, 1 January 2016 (UTC)

Off wiki behavior
Hi,

I noticed that on one off wiki website (link) somebody wrote a comment about me. This person acted as it was you. Do you know anything about it?--Antidiskriminator (talk) 14:15, 21 January 2016 (UTC)
 * I kindly remind you to please answer the above question.--Antidiskriminator (talk) 00:02, 28 January 2016 (UTC)

Hello,

Sorry,this is the second time this is happening,several months ago someone used my name in Stomrfront.Org pretending to be a member of the forum,inciting hatred.This is not the first time my name is being used by someone else,I apologize. Euripides ψ (talk) 19:44, 28 January 2016 (UTC)
 * Thanks for clarification. All the best.--Antidiskriminator (talk) 20:26, 28 January 2016 (UTC)

Changing citations
Hi,

I noticed that with this edit (diff) you: I checked again the source and can confirm that the quote is authentic and that original page number (60) was also correct. I will restore the quote and page number. --Antidiskriminator (talk) 00:17, 28 January 2016 (UTC)
 * 1) changed citation by removing the quote and
 * 2) changed the page number
 * 3) with explanation "adding referenced assertion"

Sorry,I did that on mistake. Euripides ψ (talk) 20:23, 28 January 2016 (UTC)

Skanderbeg
Hi,

I have just undid your bold addition of unnecessary detail of the battle predominantly based on outdated or unscholarly sources. Please look at Talk:Skanderbeg/GA2 which says that article is too long. It does not need additional unnecessary details which are within scope of Albanian–Venetian War, especially based on outdated sources like Franko Demetrio or unscholarly sources like Francione Genaro. --Antidiskriminator (talk) 20:31, 6 February 2016 (UTC)

Yet it does need a little detail about the Albanian-Venetian war.And why is it outdated?Why is it unnecessary?Just because you don't like it?I know you love patrolling the Skanderbeg article 24/7 for whatever ridiculous reason and notifying me for every edit I make.I believe the Battle of Drin is important information and btw Noli and Oliver Jens Schmmit are not outdated.Also why is a primary source outdated?Cause you don't like what is written there?So please give me a logical,not WP:JUSTDONTLIKEIT reason why the Battle of Drin shouldn't be mentioned. Euripides ψ (talk) 20:52, 6 February 2016 (UTC)

Skanderbeg II
Note that I did explain my edit in the edit summary. Please see categorization guideline if you need more information about categorization. Category:15th-century Albanian people is the most specific category in the tree of Category:History of Albania, therefore Skanderbeg should be categorized in Category:15th-century Albanian people and not in any of its (grand)parent categories. Marcocapelle (talk) 22:35, 19 February 2016 (UTC)

Copying within Wikipedia requires proper attribution
Thank you for your contributions to Wikipedia. It appears that you copied or moved text from Kingdom of Albania (medieval) into Albanians. While you are welcome to re-use Wikipedia's content, here or elsewhere, Wikipedia's licensing does require that you provide attribution to the original contributor(s). When copying within Wikipedia, this is supplied at minimum in an edit summary at the page into which you've copied content. It is good practice, especially if copying is extensive, to also place a properly formatted copied template on the talk pages of the source and destination. The attribution has been provided for this situation, but if you have copied material between pages before, even if it was a long time ago, please provide attribution for that duplication. You can read more about the procedure and the reasons at Copying within Wikipedia. Thank you. — Diannaa (talk) 02:43, 2 March 2016 (UTC)

Hi Euripides ψ,

The page that you recently created seems to be more of a test page to me. With this said, I suggest that you re-create the page as a template. This link should help you out. Cheers, FA9295  (talk)  (contributions)  00:39, 5 March 2016 (UTC)

Skanderbeg again
Hi,

I noticed you edit warred to delete cited assertion from Skanderbeg article (diff and diff), contrary to valid objections of another editor. Please stop with your disruptive editing. --Antidiskriminator (talk) 01:22, 5 March 2016 (UTC)

9 March 2016
Hello, you are possibly the only Albanian active here. I am from Lazarat and want to make its article a Good one. Could you please advise or better help me? By the way do you exchange emails?Lazarati (talk) 19:35, 9 March 2016 (UTC)
 * I enabled my email. You can visit my Userpage and email me. I had to ask you some questions.Lazarati (talk) 16:07, 10 March 2016 (UTC)

Well,first off the article requires expanding.The village was made famous due to recent incidents,therefor we have a lot of sourced information available.So that shouldn't be a problem.We could find more pictures to illustrate it.And the most important thing is to cite everything.We need to cite every possible assertion.

To be honest with you,I don't find much interest in this article and never really thought about it,but it would be nice to get to GA class.I will see if I have time for it,but my focus goes to the Skanderbeg and Albanians articles. Euripides ψ (talk) 20:19, 11 March 2016 (UTC)

"I understand you as a Serb " ?
In this edit (diff) you wrote speculation about my ethnicity and attributed motives to me based on such speculation. That is violation of no personal attack wikipedia policy (WP:NPA). Please be so kind not to repeat such violation again. --Antidiskriminator (talk) 19:27, 15 March 2016 (UTC)

I'm sorry,I didn't know calling someone by their ethnicity was a personal attack.Is calling someone by their name also a personal attack?If that is the case,then sorry again.Is it a personal attack calling someone by their gender also a personal attack?Then sorry again. Euripides ψ (talk) 21:51, 15 March 2016 (UTC)
 * Although I politely asked you to please be so kind not to write speculations about my ethnicity, you repeated it in your mockery disguised as an apology ("...I didn't know calling someone by their ethnicity was a personal attack."). --Antidiskriminator (talk) 22:06, 15 March 2016 (UTC)


 * Euripides, your non-apology apology is itself an insult and I will be more than happy to block for it if you persist. Thank you, Drmies (talk) 02:08, 16 March 2016 (UTC)

Skanderbeg is covered by discretionary sanctions under WP:ARBMAC
Drawing conclusions from the ethnicity of other users is viewed very dimly here. If the mission of your Wikipedia editing is to promote the importance of Albania in various historical articles, you are risking sanctions. Thank you, EdJohnston (talk) 01:20, 16 March 2016 (UTC)
 * I became aware of your edits due to a thread here, which I assume was referring to you. Thanks, EdJohnston (talk) 02:41, 16 March 2016 (UTC)

I'm not here to "promote the importance of Albania in various historical articles". I'm working specifically on that article so I can get it to a point where it can be promoted to Good Article class. Euripides ψ (talk) 19:35, 17 March 2016 (UTC)

"I would never even think of contacting you for assistance"
With this edit (diff) you wrote Antidiskriminator,sorry but I would never even think of contacting you for assistance. as reply to my comment (diff) in which I politely offered you my help: Hi Euripides ψ, what kind of help you need? I am the most active member of wp Albania and I am willing to help. Feel free to ask me for help whenever you need help in articles within WP Albania scope.

I gently point that your comment might be seen as uncivil, snide, aggressive, rude and disrespectful. I want to move on without reporting your disruptive behavior, but I would appreciate if you could refrain from making such comments to me in future. All the best.--Antidiskriminator (talk) 09:25, 27 March 2016 (UTC)

See,I told you I can't tell you why without being accused of "breaking the rules".Just know that I do not want to collaborate with you,thank you for offering your help whatsoever. Euripides ψ (talk) 10:55, 27 March 2016 (UTC)

Skanderberg's ancestry.
I noticed that you deleted my adding "Albanian people of Serbian descent" from Skanderberg's page. His mother, as I stated was considered to have probably been of Serbian origin, her wiki page states that. So why did you delete it? Are you reluctant to admit that Skanderberg may have been part-Serbian in descent?KVLG (talk) 00:50, 13 July 2016 (UTC)

It's been discussed multiple times and it hasn't been proven a fact. So we don't add that in the article. Even registered Serbian wikipedians accept that so we leave it at that. Euripides ψ (talk) 14:40, 14 July 2016 (UTC)

Comment on article talkpage
Hi,

I noticed that you used heading to attack other user by naming them in the heading (diff). That is violation of WP:TALK which says:

Please be so kind to respect wikipedia behavioral guidelines and refrain from attacking other editors by naming them in the heading. All the best.--Antidiskriminator (talk) 17:07, 2 September 2016 (UTC)

BLP
Biographies of living persons is an English Wikipedia policy which also applies to talkpages. With this comment (diff) you wrote negative text about living person. Please be so kind to take particular care when adding information about living persons to any Wikipedia page.--Antidiskriminator (talk) 20:33, 2 September 2016 (UTC)

Minor edits
Hi,

I noticed that you mark almost all of your edits as minor edits, even those which substantially change the meaning of the text. That is violation of Help:Minor edit. Please don't mark edits that change the meaning of the text as minor. All the best.--Antidiskriminator (talk) 06:30, 3 September 2016 (UTC)

Hi Euripides ψ. I agree with Antidiskriminator on this issue. I hardly mark any of my edits as minor, and I suggest you do the same. "Minor edit" is intended to be used only for really tiny and uncontroversial edits. Some people with large watch-lists have chosen not to have minor edits shown in their watch-list feed, and hence will miss out on important changes if your edits are not correctly coded. Please see Help:Minor edit for more information on this topic. — Diannaa 🍁 (talk) 22:55, 12 September 2016 (UTC)

Um, nuk kam absolutisht kurrfare interesi ne Sq.Wikipedia Ktrimi. Te gjithe artikujt nuk kane kurrfare burime dhe vetem shkruhen nga autor me ndjenjat e veta. Nese nuk ke deshir te me ndihmosh, e kuptoj, vetem me thuaj. Euripides ψ (talk) 13:23, 20 September 2016 (UTC)
 * E kuptoj shume mire cfare do te thuash, por nuk mund te flasim haptazi ketu. Pak me siper te dhashe nje link, aty do gjesh menyren si te flasim bashke privatisht pa na bezdisur njeri. E kuptoj qe do te punojme per en.wikipedia sepse edhe une nuk kam interes shume per sq.wikipedia por nuk mund te flasim hapur ketu. Po bej sikur po te ftoj tek sq.Wikipedia thjesht per te luajtur rolin qe te mos na kuptojne. To conclude it is very easy to edit sq.wikipedia, it is in the same way with en.wikipedia.

Gjithsesi jam i gatshem per te te ndihmuar. Per cfare ke nevoje? Gj te mirat Aigest (talk) 14:30, 22 September 2016 (UTC)

Jam duke punuar ne artikullin per rilindjen Shqiptare qe ta nominoj per GA. Kerkoja ndihmen tende pasi qe te respektoj si wikipedian, mirepo nese ke pune te tjera, kuptohet. Wikipedia eshte vetem hobby. Ne qofte se je i lire ndonjehere, vetem me kontakto dhe mund te bashkpunojme per artikuj te ndryshem ne WP:Albania. Euripides ψ (talk) 19:38, 24 September 2016 (UTC)


 * Ok. Hidhi nje sy ketij materiali dhe me thuaj. Duke lene menjane politizimet e panevojshme ne ate liber ka mjaft fakte interesante qe mund te perdoren per periudhen e shek 19. Duke i hedhur nje sy te shpejte artikullit shikoj qe duhen korigjuar disa gjera psh Rilindja kombetare fillon me heret, qe nga shkrimtaret arbereshe vitet 1840 dhe vazhdoi me Naum Veqilharxhi etj. Material tjeter interesant sidomos per foto, letra, doreshkrime dhe printe gazetash eshte ky materiali tjeter. Gjithsesi sic thashe hidhi nje sy e me thuaj. Gj te mirat Aigest (talk) 07:29, 26 September 2016 (UTC)

Faleminderit shume Aigest. Jam duke e lexuar mire librin dhe do me sherbej shume per artikullin. Kristo Frasheri eshte mjaft i mire dhe i besueshem edhe pse ka pak nuanca nacionaliste. Nese kthehesh ndonjeher plotesisht ne Wikipedia, me kontakto, do doja shume te bashkpunoja me ty per artikuj te ndryshem dhe t'ia permirsoja kualitetin ne WP:Albania. P.S Ne qofte se e ke nje PDF te librit te Selami Pulahes per Skenderbeun te lutem ma dergo. Gjitha te mirat, Euripides. Euripides ψ (talk) 21:13, 1 October 2016 (UTC)

Europe 10,000 Challenge invite
Hi. The WikiProject Europe/The 10,000 Challenge has recently started, based on the UK/Ireland The 10,000 Challenge. The idea is not to record every minor edit, but to create a momentum to motivate editors to produce good content improvements and creations and inspire people to work on more countries than they might otherwise work on. There's also the possibility of establishing smaller country or regional challenges for places like Germany, Italy, the Benelux countries, Iberian Peninsula, Romania, Slovenia etc, much like The 1000 Challenge (Nordic). For this to really work we need diversity and exciting content and editors from a broad range of countries regularly contributing. If you would like to see masses of articles being improved for Europe and your specialist country like WikiProject Africa/The Africa Destubathon, sign up today and once the challenge starts a contest can be organized. This is a way we can target every country of Europe, and steadily vastly improve the encyclopedia. We need numbers to make this work so consider signing up as a participant and also sign under any country sub challenge on the page that you might contribute to!

April 2018 Milhist Backlog Drive
G'day all, please be advised that throughout April 2018 the Military history Wikiproject is running its annual backlog elimination drive. This will focus on several key areas:


 * tagging and assessing articles that fall within the project's scope
 * adding or improving listed resources on Milhist's task force pages
 * updating the open tasks template on Milhist's task force pages
 * creating articles that are listed as "requested" on the project's various lists of missing articles.

As with past Milhist drives, there are points awarded for working on articles in the targeted areas, with barnstars being awarded at the end for different levels of achievement.

The drive is open to all Wikipedians, not just members of the Military history project, although only work on articles that fall (broadly) within the scope of military history will be considered eligible. This year, the Military history project would like to extend a specific welcome to members of WikiProject Women in Red, and we would like to encourage all participants to consider working on helping to improve our coverage of women in the military. This is not the sole focus of the edit-a-thon, though, and there are aspects that hopefully will appeal to pretty much everyone.

The drive starts at 00:01 UTC on 1 April and runs until 23:59 UTC on 30 April 2018. Those interested in participating can sign up here.
