Countries in...
The removal of the wikilinks was part of a standardisation across all 7 templates. I removed those as these templates to try and clarify contentious (albeit erroneous) locations of countries, especially after footnotes were removed per a discussion elsewhere. I actually agree with the point of view you espouse, if I was going to name countries in Africa I'd name France, and correct others who leave it out (much to the chagrin of those around me), but I decided that removing the links were better after encountering the issue of including Chile in Oceania (as seen on Template:Countries of Oceania. At any rate, should the UK be wikilinked in the dependency section? The UK is actually not in Africa at all (as the dependency is not integral. Ta, Chipmunkdavis (talk) 14:56, 17 January 2011 (UTC)

Now what?
Hi Golbez. Both discussions where you - an experienced wikipedian - are involved (Heyvali and Naming Conventions) are kind a paused. Particularly for Heyvali Tuscumbia insists on "legal" (his own term) aspect with numerous metaphors (very irrelevant in my opinion) and I am tired of explaining and arguing that de-jure name is misleading. Now what? Do you have any suggestion what should be done next? Thanks. -- Ashot ( talk ) 22:25, 18 January 2011 (UTC)

Hi Golbez. I have restarted the above FLC because the consensus was unclear. Can you revisit it to ensure that all of your comments have been addressed, and if possible, declare whether you support, oppose, or are neutral towards the list's promotion to FL status?

Hi Golbez.

Golbez, would like you be aware of and. Though I admit that restarting the discussion there was probably not the best solution. -- Ashot ( talk ) 08:37, 21 January 2011 (UTC)

Regarding your note on my talk page, neutrality is usually perceived as how others (including your opponents) judge your edits or opinion rather than how you (or your supporters) judge your position. There is no evidence that your opinion on Heyvali or any other A-A article is neutral or different from what it was three years ago. Atabəy (talk) 01:53, 25 January 2011 (UTC)

List of Governors of Washington
Could you take a look at Washington's Governor list. Hopefully will get it off to FLC. Washington has the same copyright status as the federal government. So, all the photos of the governors have been added. I couldn't find any other dates on when the territorial Governors arrived/left.

Rather annoying, this pointless reverting. The new IP from a different range locates from the same area as the other IP, so I'm sure it's still just 1 person.

Superbowl ITN
Perhaps you are unaware that bloody is an obscenity, and that "stupid bloody . . . yankee" is insulting whether or not it applies to Americans or just northerners? And "silly decision" is also an implied criticism of editors, not the game. I suggest you be more even handed in your threats and actions. I don't see any warning to you from Lihaas for his out of line comment. Were I an editor I would simply have removed his slander - an action which you could have taken, but didn't.μηδείς (talk) 19:55, 6 February 2011 (UTC)

In light of this threat and his usual trolling activities, should we not consider adding a blanket semi-protection for all these towns and cities which have been subjected to his vandalism for the past few days?

Nationalist vandalism/miscunduct
Hi Golbez, At the moment I really don't know who else I can ask to have a look at what User:Verman1 does. Editing while discussion is ongoing, putting his version of the text and then asking administrator to protect the page and things like those are becoming a common practice. You have an experience of dealing with nationalist vandals of both Armenian and Azeri origin and hence I assume you can handle this situation easily.

Malibeyli and Gushchular Massacre
The numerous reverts without the use of talk page appear to be a "spill over" from a dispute between Armenian and Azeri users[]. I would suggest locking down the article until both sides start to use the talk page. However, I believe this is just one small part of a larger issue that started with Tsitsernavank Monastery.

AA discussion of sources
Hello Golbez. I see that you are a long-experienced admin who has some experience with the AA topic area. I also noticed your essay at User:Golbez/Nagorno-Karabakh. Recently a case was closed at WP:Arbitration enforcement that was really about quality of sourcing for some articles about massacres in 1992 in the Nagorno-Karabakh war. Now on the bright side :-) the user who brought the complaint has agreed to start an RfC about one of the massacres, in which sources will be discussed. (See User talk:Angel670 and look at the bottom of the thread). The RfC has been opened with this diff and can be seen at Talk:Malibeyli and Gushchular Massacre.

Do you think this RfC is a good idea? Perhaps you have some familiarity with the sources yourself. If you want to participate in the RfC, you would of course be welcome. EdJohnston (talk) 23:19, 31 May 2011 (UTC)

Need your help again
Hi Your American right? Can you take a look at here: and the talkpage... It seems there is no clear definition.. However, I have proposed: "Azeri-Americans are those Americans who are from the republic of Azerbaijan irregardless of ethnic background. It may also include those with ethnic Azeri backgrounds who foremost or concurrently self-identify themselves as Azerbaijani-Americans regardless of the country of origin". The thing is does it include Armenians from Karabagh? Kurds from Western Azerbaijan in Iran? Or Iranian Azeris? It seems the is a dispute on definition. Thanks.--Khodabandeh14 (talk) 18:03, 30 June 2011 (UTC)

Sorry, that a was a joke (unfortunately I cannot make facial expressions in wikipedia to convey it). I look forward to your decision. Best wishes. --Khodabandeh14 (talk) 20:20, 30 June 2011 (UTC)

"Hi, as I said I'll be happy to accept your definition. I am wondering for example in Iranian Americans can one include say Tajiks of Central Asia (cause they speak an Iranic language) and at the same time a person from Iran?   X-American I always thought means a person from the said country who has ancestors there or held a citizenship there, and then migrated to the US.   There is actually a good point though in the discussion that it seems most of the X-American articles are not consistent.  Armenian-Americans for example does it include Yezidi Kurds from Armenia or  Azeris that were born in Armenia?  Please clarify and perhaps we need a consistant definition in all relavent wikipedia articles.  --Khodabandeh14 (talk) 01:43, 1 July 2011 (UTC)

Incorrect revertion
Dear Golbez. I kindly ask you to pay attention. This user has made irrelevant deletion of edits that has been cited by third-party investigator. I am afraid that if I begin to go against this user this will end up in edit war. Can you please enforce user to respect Wikipedia rule that third-party neutral and verified source has a right to appear in the relevant articles? Regards, --Verman1 (talk) 19:08, 21 September 2011 (UTC)
 * I agree with the reversion. Apart from being very poorly written, I don't see why it's in this overview article on the region. Want it in the article on the war, or a battle? That might work. But focusing on two rapes, when there were people being killed? Unless you have a source saying those rapes were directly responsible for the war that began two days later - as responsible as the declaration of transfer to the Armenian SSR - then they might have a place, but as it is that seems to be completely out of place and adds nothing to the article. I strongly suggest you don't get into an edit war over this sentence, this is not the hill you want to die on. --Golbez (talk) 19:25, 21 September 2011 (UTC)
 * I think anyone, who is related to this region or knows this region very closely, will acknowledge that the reason for people's march towards Khankendi was to take revenge for raping. Apparently, the girls have been raped by the people of different ethnic group, and this raised anger and frustration among Azerbaijanis. You are in full knowledge that village people from Aghdam would not march towards Khankendi just to stand-off against NKAO parliament's intended declaration, just because those people were very far from those political confrontations between Yerevan, Baku, Khankendi and Moscow. The direct reason of the rally was to take revenge for the raped girls. Also, if you think that the sentence is poorly written, then you are more than welcome to edit that in order to raise the quality. As you mentioned, I think it is OK if I publish this fact in page Nagorno-Karabakh War. Thank you for your attention. --Verman1 (talk) 06:33, 22 September 2011 (UTC)

However, it is a de-jure part of the Republic of Azerbaijan, with the status of an administrative division...''

I have a problem
and I have come up with a non-standard way of dealing with it. I am going to pitch my solution to half a dozen long term editors whom I respect and get some feedback. I am picking you of my watchlist, not why some of you are there. I am confused, sober and looking for answers and honesty. It all starts with the Ignore all rules postulate.

Over the years I have amassed a lot of documentary materials. My great-grandfather lived in China, my grandfather was born there. Both took pictures. My grandfather took pictures as a doctor in both WWI and WWII. I have become the family archivist and I call the collection the Carpchives. In an earlier wikipedia incarnation this collection was referred to as the eekives. It was involved in a quite heated discussion here - Disputed Image  section and eventually the picture was removed. By me, as I recall. The picture in question was of my father-in-law in the US Merchant Marines during WWII. Another picture taken during the Boxer rebellion has since been removed. It was a bit funky, for sure.

There are a number of signatures that I've added to articles, some from my family archives, some I've had signed, other turn up in used books. Some of this stuff that is already in wikipedia is here:

I'm pretty sure there is more.

I also have a great collection of Corrado Parducci stuff, his "Job Book" written by him, copies of hundreds of photographs of his works in the plaster stage in his studio, a copy of his scrap book and more. I once had a project going to try and identify 75 sculptors in a photograph that was published in LIFE Magazine in 1949, located several of the artists still alive and corresponded with many children and grandchildren. Unfortunately much of that was lost in one of several dramatic computer and other failures in my life, but much remains. Then there is what I call the "my father (or grandfather) was a famous sculptor and..." syndrome. Through that I've collected a great CD filled with Rene Paul Chambellan's scrap books, as well as letter, papers, photographs and all sorts of that sort of things from a variety of other folks.

I always share. Well, almost always. So, I'd like to set up, on wikipedia, a Charpchives article or perhaps, a subpage of my user page or something, where these things could be referenced to and anyone who wanted to check up on something could contact me there.

Or is this all just some mutation of perversion of original research? Or even hubris? The thing about this material is that little of it in mine, although some of that does appear too. this is not my blog. Or should I just put it all on my blog and forget using it on wikipedia?

Feel free to give me your quick think on this, if in fact you manage to make it all the way through this epistle. Thanks, in any case. Einar aka Carptrash (talk) 06:21, 1 February 2012 (UTC)

CSA states evolution
I found the " File:CSA states evolution.gif " on Wikimedia Commons, loved it and added to Confederate States of America - Secession - States. Really brilliant and clear. Wow, a reminder that Kansas was admitted as a free state before the Texas referendum! No wonder it was a landslide. That changes everything for interpretation of the Texas rumors about abolitionist-based promotion of slave-labor troubles and plains Indian attacks from "Bleeding Kansas". etc., etc., all the wonderful things about graphic presentation of information giving more, immediate and better global comprehension with spacial recognition than can be gathered by the mind in lineal text ... with effects now magnified with timeline sequencing as found with this map. Some now show a proportionate timeline bar progressing left-to-right, giving scaled time durations on the map displayed, better and better.

Anyway, before I read through the 20-month old exchanges about gifs on cell phones or something (?), I linked the article in See Also sections in all thirteen states' articles ending with "in the American Civil War" to the CSA article section holding the animated map. As it functions on my browser, it takes two clicks to run the animation at about 3 second intervals, and I so noted the two clicks to reach animation in the map caption. Is there any chance of keeping the map? TheVirginiaHistorian (talk) 15:32, 3 February 2012 (UTC)


 * I put together an introduction/apology/defense on Talk:Confederate States of America. With any luck that will qualify the map for anyone taking exception to it, to tag it, not blank it, and room/time for discussion and collaboration. Thanks for reconsidering it for further refinement.

CSA .gif design considerations

 * I'm really interested in pursuing this with you, if you would permit a sort-of junior sub-assistant consult fella. While I'm an avid user of these marvelous animated maps, imbedded in slide shows cast on a "white board" allowing electronic pen interaction with the students ... I deeply regret no coding skills.
 * (1) on labeling state names. Would coding be saved by using the US postal service two letter abbreviations?
 * (a) In the legend a notice such as "States are designated with USPS abbreviations." linked to List of U.S. state abbreviations for reference.
 * (b) graphically the information of the state names is more clearly, uniformly and readily communicated with the two letters. The most important information is conveyed in the mapping, not the names, because of the political geography of the sectional "war between the states".
 * [I found that high school students in an "inclusive" classroom could fluently write using the abbreviations. No one with a disability (learning -hard to speed up, or emotional -hard to slow down, or motor -hard to close the loops) need hesitate or skip labeling a map or writing an essay, figuring out how to write "Massachusetts" when MA will do. And, also, for the rest of one's occupational life, only "MA" is really required, and MA, MD, ME, MI, MN, MO, MS and MT really are.]
 * (2) color pallet might follow that used in the Electoral College mapping for presidential elections. Mostly pastels...
 * (3) timeline can be smaller scale, might show as a green bar expanding along a single axis white tube at the bottom of the map versus a hard to acquire black hairline progressing along a dark green, broken line bar.
 * (4) event titles might be relocated into the Gulf of Mexico. Even in smaller font, it will be more easily acquired in the 3-second window allowed. TheVirginiaHistorian (talk) 22:36, 3 February 2012 (UTC)
 * Quick responses as I must be going, but:
 * 1, I'm not a fan of because it requires people who may not know the abbreviations to have to go look them up while the animation's running. I don't mind the large version having as much information as it can get, maybe I'll switch down to abbreviations for the smaller version.
 * The color palette will definitely follow my Canada maps, no more baby poop brown, much more subdued colors.
 * I'm definitely up for improvements to the timeline, I can try this one.
 * I didn't put them in the gulf because ... ... good question. Didn't have as much room. Won't anymore either because I'll be including other countries. I'll do what I've done for the other maps and create a submap area for text. That will allow for more information. --Golbez (talk) 22:46, 3 February 2012 (UTC)
 * 1. implication: edition A = clear, conventional labeling. perhaps thinner, narrower sans-serif fonts. edition B = complete labels in items changing, and in items just changed. Third past and older state labels go to two-letter international abbreviations. edition C = all two letter abbreviations. >> produce A, "C" minimalist edition, then B for educational use?
 * 2. implication: go with what you got. That's best because you have a broader perspective that fits into a larger project. I was just thinking of helping out by cut-and-paste color selection, using 1860 Presidential Election map color off-the-shelf, in a different array for the limited purpose of a CSA map to conform with blue=Union convention (footnote: red is the universal color assigned the enemy units in military mapping convention): Douglas blue color = Union. Bell orange color = MO, KY. Lincoln peach color = WV. Breckinridge vibrant green = the Confederacy 11. Maybe for the "B" limited edition for U.S. article application >> last production >> rats  . . .  would you reconsider for an illogical reason, just for an interim, transitory and short-lived intermediate "beta-test" edition incorporating some of these redesigned items?
 * 3. implication: thanks.
 * 4.a implication: To ease 3-second acquisition of the title, can the timeline title box float adjacent the new activity? If they are widespread, as in wars in the Americas in the 1860s found in southern US, Mexico, and Peruvian islands, they might have box-background colored arrows => from the box to the disparate locations.
 * 4.b acquisition of information: can there be a button/lozenge that reads pause on the map itself that allows a reader to hover the cursor over the button as the show progresses? The PAUSE mode would be platform for accessing popup county maps for WV envisioned in my CSA:talk proposal. In many animated maps there is a proprietary, non-standard, non-intuitive, key to pause the flow (space bar, ctrl-P, navigator bar). I find these schemes not-user-friendly for the multi-platform reader/presenter. Alternative #2: if the title box remains stationary, directions above it might read, "PAUSE by click on the title box". TheVirginiaHistorian (talk) 11:54, 4 February 2012 (UTC)
 * I only have a response to #4 at this moment, but it's impossible to pause and restart a GIF. And we can't use Flash on Wikipedia. One thing I've pondered is a version of a map where it animates slower, but shows a zoomed-in version of smaller changes as they go on. Or a transition. Something a little more professional than what we have. --Golbez (talk) 16:02, 4 February 2012 (UTC)

GIF limits - CSA
Given impossible to Wiki - pause and restart a .gif, then
 * (a) allow a toggle to extend delays in sequence from three to ___ seconds, for instance, DELAY three to seven seconds.
 * (b) provide for a link to a subsidiary GIF "West Virginia - counties evolution (date) to (date)", for instance, 1858-1868. see explication below
 * (c) it may be that the needs of the CSA article will be met with a place-holder WV county map in a linked GIF, with a general textual description of what is intended/required for complete scholarly accuracy. This would amount to a sort of specifications for collaborative "suggested guidelines" for anyone interested in pursuing this level of detail to (a) amass the data set and (b) write the WV GIF in a shell which you might provide.
 * Along with the distinctive colors for MO, KY and WV, a summary note could be posted in a box for the CSA map. One should not throw out the baby with the bath water, so to speak.

WV subsidiary map explication.
 * --The heartburn western Virginians felt towards the easterners was based in part on the county under-representation. So, trying to secure the loyalty of westerners, several counties were subdivided in 1860 to give greater voice in the state Assembly. The evolution through changing county lines.
 * --the mapped universe of counties included should extend with all data for two counties beyond the eventual WV state line, or on inspection, (b) however many more counties it takes to see uninterrupted Richmond-leaning voting. As I remember by a previous visual survey of a period map, this will follow the westerly penetration of Richmond-to-county rail connections.
 * --mapped transportation of navigable rivers, canals and railroads out two counties into adjacent states of MD, PA, OH and KY. Rails built into what will be WV 1861-1863.
 * --Elections/votes selection: (b) decline of Whig voting in Congress, (c) for president 1860 (d) secession convention vote #1 including fall-off from presidential vote [a virtual none-of-the-above percent, or Unionists reported intimidation at some polling places), (d) secession convention vote #2 or its boycott, as the anti-slavers in Bleeding Kansas did at the LeCompton Constitution (e) plebiscite in Union occupied counties allowing additional counties to join WV, (f) two counties awarded WV on court appeal 186--8?

MSU Interview
Dear Golbez,

My name is Jonathan Obar user:Jaobar, I'm a professor in the College of Communication Arts and Sciences at Michigan State University and a Teaching Fellow with the Wikimedia Foundation's Education Program. This semester I've been running a little experiment at MSU, a class where we teach students about becoming Wikipedia administrators. Not a lot is known about your community, and our students (who are fascinated by wiki-culture by the way!) want to learn how you do what you do, and why you do it. A while back I proposed this idea (the class) to the community HERE, were it was met mainly with positive feedback. Anyhow, I'd like my students to speak with a few administrators to get a sense of admin experiences, training, motivations, likes, dislikes, etc. We were wondering if you'd be interested in speaking with one of our students.

So a few things about the interviews:
 * Interviews will last between 15 and 30 minutes.
 * Interviews can be conducted over skype (preferred), IRC or email. (You choose the form of communication based upon your comfort level, time, etc.)
 * All interviews will be completely anonymous, meaning that you (real name and/or pseudonym) will never be identified in any of our materials, unless you give the interviewer permission to do so.
 * All interviews will be completely voluntary. You are under no obligation to say yes to an interview, and can say no and stop or leave the interview at any time.
 * The entire interview process is being overseen by MSU's institutional review board (ethics review). This means that all questions have been approved by the university and all students have been trained how to conduct interviews ethically and properly.

Bottom line is that we really need your help, and would really appreciate the opportunity to speak with you. If interested, please send me an email at obar@msu.edu (to maintain anonymity) and I will add your name to my offline contact list. If you feel comfortable doing so, you can post your name HERE instead.

If you have questions or concerns at any time, feel free to email me at obar@msu.edu. I will be more than happy to speak with you.

Thanks in advance for your help. We have a lot to learn from you.

Sincerely,

Jonathan Obar --Jaobar (talk) 00:57, 10 February 2012 (UTC)

Shusha
I saw your edits on the page, Shusha. I think adding that Shusha is a defacto republic is more neutral than its disputed region, as we have information after that gives some light on the issue. Let me know what you think. Thanks! Nocturnal781 (talk) 12:18, 10 February 2012 (UTC)
 * I'll leave it as is, I just think that disputed vs de facto, that de facto is more neutral since its a territory of its own that claimed independence, but internationally recognized as Azerbaijan of course. I know its a sensitive topic so I'll leave it alone, seems like the best option for now. I read that page you had btw about Azerbaijan-Armenian conflict on Wikipedia, quite interesting!

CSA.GIF International boundary POV

 * Per the Golbez and JimWae discussion concerning the International boundary. See the 6-color palette section
 * The International boundary might be replaced with another line font, say, solid (thinner than international) line on the Confederate side, dotted line on the Union side -_-__-__-__-__-__-__-__-__-_, or something.The universal descriptor could be
 * "Boundary claimed by the Confederate States of America, [month] 1861 - April 1865."
 * the border changing with each new Admitted to Confederacy. That would put WV on the south of the line, but as of March 4, 1863, WV would stay #4 color (CSA-with-U.S. Representatives, same color as USA-with-C.S. Representatives) and the geopolitical change would show visually because  #3 color would obtain to VA (CSA, no U.S. representatives).  TheVirginiaHistorian (talk) 15:46, 10 February 2012 (UTC)

Nagorno-Karabakh
Hi. What do you think of this: ? Another SPA brought in to push POV on this article. The article is pretty much a mess now. The section that the suspicious accounts try to push is a collection of personal interpretations of primary sources, which is against the rules. Grand master  22:15, 25 February 2012 (UTC)

That's sad. You were the only one who kept some sort of order in that article. Grand master  22:21, 25 February 2012 (UTC)

If you give up so easily, then what is the point in taking part in this project? I think you should hold on to what you believe in. Neutrality and accuracy of information. I think it is time to ask the wiki community for help. Grand master  22:38, 25 February 2012 (UTC)

POV edits with disturbing implications if allowed to stand
Dear Golbez, could you give your opinion about some disturbing editing that has been going on at the Van cat article? I'm asking you because you have had some experience of the issues and the disruption that can result over place naming disputes regarding Armenia and Azerbaijan. An editor is trying to add the pov claim that present-day Van lies in "the region of Turkish Kurdistan" and (in the article's infobox) that Van is in "the Turkish Kurdistan region of Turkey". Of course Van is legally and administratively entirely part of Turkey, is thecapital of Van region, and is internationally recognised as such. Any use of the word "Kurdistan" comes loaded with POV implications because it means "land of the Kurds" – it is far more than just saying "Kurdish-populated areas" (though I don’t see why even mentioning the ethnicity of the human population is needed in an article on cats). The implications if her edit is allowed to stand could be extremely disruptive. It would justify Kurdish activists editing Wikipedia articles on towns and cities and regions in eastern Turkey to state that these places are located in "Turkish Kurdistan", or even just in "Kurdistan". You can easily imagine the level of edit warring that such actions could cause. <span style="font-family:Trebuchet MS, verdana, sans serif; color:#0088BB;">Meowy 20:05, 23 March 2012 (UTC)

C.S.A. animated map beta.Mar.5

 * The original animated map of the Confederacy has been deleted on Confederate States of America. Which reminds me,


 * Could you use the March 5 beta, add a legend and title, and upload it as-it-is for a publication to be revised? Using the existing colors.


 * With apologies for having absolutely no fluency in the color palettes, something like, well, blind thrashing around, the adjacent?
 * duly aligned with your color selection, proportioned as a legend, perhaps in the map ...


 * I'm not sure how to complete this project. But I do know that I want to see one of your animated versions at Confederate States of America.


 * I've not forgotten your request for more background. Hope to be resettled by August with full access to my library. TheVirginiaHistorian (talk) 08:02, 13 April 2012 (UTC)

Hi Golbez. I hope you are doing well. Are you back from your sabbatical from all things Caucasus related? :) If so, what is your opinion about recent large rewrites to the article about Nagorno-Karabakh? Those edits have no consensus (other than 7 recently created accounts, no one else supports them). My concern is that those edits are largely based on interpretation of the primary sources, which is not acceptable per WP:PRIMARY, and secondary sources used are mostly partisan, i.e. representing the Armenian point of view, despite WP rules requiring to use third party sources. I would appreciate your comment and further involvement with the article. Take care. Grand  master  10:41, 15 April 2012 (UTC)

Also, what do you think of the change to the lead? If memory serves me right, this edit was already discussed with the banned user, and was rejected. Grand master  11:44, 15 April 2012 (UTC)

a poke and a ping - c.s.a
I tried to make an answer to your timeline poke with two links and some discussion, and to the ping with two additional links and three summaries ...

I tried to add to your earlier defense of the beta animated political c.s.a. map, particularly answering the business about "original research" since Dubyavee, you and I all use Martis as a scholarly "reliable source" of political geography. I added the draft legend as a proposal on the c.s.a. talk page, which I had hoped would answer the objections. Resounding silence.

There are still interested readers, when I tried to archive a discussion on the railroad map leading to the consensus USMA map adoption, it conflicted with the bot archiving, so an editor collaboratively showed me how to use and  to achieve the same object, allowing readers of c.s.a. Talk easier navigation to the question at hand: adopting the animated map.

But formerly engaged editors are now off on other projects, all of which are equally interesting, but nothing further on c.s.a. --- Was it something I said? TheVirginiaHistorian (talk) 08:36, 19 April 2012 (UTC)

Azerbaijani vs Azeri
Hi!

I basically undid these recent edits, which were quite anachronistic. I confess that I didn't check other parts of the article.

Sardur (talk) 21:40, 11 May 2012 (UTC)
 * "Anachronistic" was generic: the word is about nationality and should therefore not appear before 1918; that was the main reason of my revert. But "Azeri" is about the ethnicity, hence the "ethnic Azeri population" (which btw, AFAIK, is wrong, as the city was mainly populated by Meskhetians at that time).

Credo Reference Update & Survey (your opinion requested)
Credo Reference, who generously donated 400 free Credo 250 research accounts to Wikipedia editors over the past two years, has offered to expand the program to include 100 additional reference resources. Credo wants Wikipedia editors to select which resources they want most. So, we put together a quick survey to do that:


 * Link to Survey (should take between 5-10 minutes): http://www.surveymonkey.com/s/N8FQ6MM

It also asks some basic questions about what you like about the Credo program and what you might want to improve.

At this time only the initial 400 editors have accounts, but even if you do not have an account, you still might want to weigh in on which resources would be most valuable for the community (for example, through WikiProject Resource Exchange).

Also, if you have an account but no longer want to use it, please leave me a note so another editor can take your spot.

If you have any other questions or comments, drop by my talk page or email me at wikiocaasi@yahoo.com. Cheers! Ocaasit &#124; c 17:18, 11 July 2012 (UTC)

Van cat
Hi, man, what's wrong with you, you don't know Armenian, nor Turkish. But you can revert an alternative name of cat? But also, Western Armenia, is related to cat origin, and if now Turkey starts call itself Ecuador, the cat is still from Western Armenia. So, come prove you're right about this. — Preceding unsigned comment added by Arantz (talk • contribs) 04:56, 15 August 2012 (UTC)

France and French Republic
Looked for both in the WP and saw only one article: France. In the other case we have two articles, because we have a territory that is part of Azerbaijan and a "puppet" (yessir) political entity on it.

Your sentence of hatred towards Armenians and Azeries/Azerbaijanese
Gobez, you expressed hatred to 2 nations at the same time.

Quote: "..I have an attitude against both Armenians and Azeris because I have been editing these articles for seven years and have come to generally hate everyone involved."

This is a base of indefinitely blocking you but not in any way a show of "adult supervision", as you note in the discussion on Talk:Nagorno-Karabakh_Republic. I strongly recommend not to get involved in any articles involving either an Armenian or an Azeri elements. This is a friendly suggestion as the above shows absolutely no way you can be constructive.

"Gobez, you expressed hatred to 2 nations at the same time." You can look at it that way, I choose not to.

I'm still waiting for you to tell me whose side I'm on. --Golbez (talk) 21:57, 1 November 2012 (UTC)
 * ?? You know your sides better but telling u hate armenians and azeries does not make u a saint but shows you should never get involved in the articles. I am here to contribute to knowledge and ur game of speaking of "sides" is strange for me. I am not asking of any clarifications from you of ur hatred but telling to in a friendly way to consider giving up the articles with subjects involving those nationalities and ethnicities you said you hate as it is most inconstructive. The rest is your choice, but I have done all in my powers to bring sense to you. Aregakn (talk) 01:23, 2 November 2012 (UTC)
 * I learned hate from dealing with the articles, not the other way around. Your request for me to leave the articles more than the extent I have already left them is denied. I point out that I have not directly accused you of a bias, but you have accused me ("This is 100% prove of you pushing points" What points am I pushing?), yet for some reason have decided to play coy with it and not say it out loud. Whatever. --Golbez (talk) 01:40, 2 November 2012 (UTC)

Gotta tell Golbez ...

 * - I saw | Charlie Rose: Robert Kaplan a while back, got on the public library waiting list and have a copy in my hands. Total antidote to NYTs Freidman, "The World is Flat".
 * - Riches -- RICHES. “The Revenge of Geography: what the maps tells us about coming conflicts and the battle against fate.” I’m only half into the first chapter and I told my wife, I’ve GOT to tell Golbez about this. Starts off kind of travelogue-y, but it gets better as it goes along.
 * - She just does not understand our relationship. -- Like two guys meeting in a park once a week to play chess. -– Isn’t that the guy who knocks your edits off of the ‘United States’ article? She is watching. I think she is jealous of you. If I disappear from Wikipedia for a while, you will know the real reason why. But I just had to tell you about “Revenge”.

I noticed that you were one of the prime contributers to the Burj Khalifa article, and I thought you could help me. I am trying to take Skycity to DYK, considering what an interesting hook it will make. For which, I intend to expand the article as much as I can (to meet DYK expansion standards).

indian state
Agree worded badly but the editor is right we  should mention the Indian state - in fact its more important they calling it the second war of independents in my opinion (only old American historians  say this). We have a map that shows the so called Indian area  before the war File:NorthAmerica1762-83.png. What can we do to fix this?Moxy (talk) 22:09, 6 December 2012 (UTC)
 * I dont understand what your saying at all? Yes sources are fine for "second war of independents" (however we were mocked on CNN for using this term) - but I am talking about the Indian state problem - that is not in the article at all and is much more relevant then an obscure name for the conflict. I would guess Americans like the term "second war of independents" and thats fine.. but we should mention the problems about expectation into the reserves.   Moxy (talk) 22:32, 6 December 2012 (UTC)
 * O I see what your saying - just as with "second war of independent" not mentioned or explained anywhere in the article. I will fix both of these problem. Also the statement sound like the USA came to Canada's rescue - over invaded it. I will fix all this in time Moxy (talk) 22:41, 6 December 2012 (UTC)

BLOODY CHRISTMAS ARTICLE
Hi, since you got involved with the complex Cyprus issue, please have a look at that (Bloody Christmas). I'm copying what I wrote on the talk page: his article is a clear WP:POVFORK. It just rephrases 2-3 lines currently in the Cypriot intercommunal violence article which covers the 10 day period of Bloody Christmas as well as the events in 1974.Besides that, its clearly writen to impose a   POV.
 * Proof 1:
 * Source states: "133 Turkish Cypriot victims who were killed or went missing in Cyprus 47 years ago during a 10 day period dubbed ‘Bloody Christmas"
 * Article states: "Between 21–22 December 1963 up to 133 Turkish Cypriots were killed by Greek Cypriots"
 * Proof 2:
 * CIA world factbook was marked as a source but actually wasn't and was removed.
 * Proof 3:
 * source:"Apparently some 20000 of them chose to remain and were given appropriate grants of land" From the book The road to Bellapais: The Turkish Cypriot exodus to northern Cyprus, (Searched for "20000" through ebook)
 * article: 20,000 Turkish Cypriots abandoned their homes JCA100 (talk) 00:44, 29 December 2012 (UTC)


 * JCA100FYI I answered all of your proofs on the Talk page. I'm also trying to make this article more complete and better with new updates from my research. This is not a 1-day job specially for my restricted agenda. But you're always very welcome to help me as well to make Bloody Christmas (1963) better. Please check for the last updates on the page as well. Sbasturk (talk) 03:19, 29 December 2012 (UTC)

I got involved in the Nagorno Karabakh articles for over half a decade because I made a map. I have no interest in getting involved in the Cyprus articles just because I have a strong opinion on splitting. :) (... and because I made a map.) --Golbez (talk) 14:32, 31 December 2012 (UTC)
 * Golbez, no need to make a Cyprus political map. One is available at the US State Department page. Happy New Year. --E4024 (talk) 16:44, 31 December 2012 (UTC)
 * Er, I already did. Seven years ago. :) File:Cyprus districts named.png (Someone edited the colors but the rest is mine) --Golbez (talk) 16:46, 31 December 2012 (UTC)
 * Then you already know better than anyone that the EU considers "Turkish Cypriot Community" as part of the Republic of Cyprus! :-( However, certainly the EU does not consider the Eastern Base Area as part of that Republic, but maybe only of the EU; this is why they refer to the "outer borders of the EU where the Eastern Sovereign Base meets the Turkish Cypriot Community". (Looks like this last one is another country. :-) Please look at this "Protocol Number 10" with the RoC. Now I am afraid to take it to the concerned split discussion as I am frequently accused by some to take part with the Turkish Cypriot POV and this document calls them "Turkish Cypriot Community" and claim this entity have "borders" with a Sovereign Base Area! (People will think I have conflicting views on the status of the TRNC... :-) Cheers. --E4024 (talk) 20:29, 3 January 2013 (UTC)


 * Looks like a litle english misunderstanding here.... By "Shall be treated as" they mean treated as borders although they are not. All UN resolutions consider TRNC as legally invalid and the North as territory of the Republic of Cyprus that its not under its effective control. By no means the EU considers that there is a border between the South and the North186.113.26.35 (talk) 20:44, 3 January 2013 (UTC)


 * Right. I do know my English is not so good. However, I understood something similar to you; that the EU does consider the Republic of Cyprus as the owner of "almost" all Cyprus. Not the Sovereign Base Areas though... --E4024 (talk) 20:55, 3 January 2013 (UTC)

Hello, I'm Estlandia. I noticed that you recently removed some content from Nagorno-Karabakh War without explaining why. In the future, it would be helpful to others if you described your changes to Wikipedia with an edit summary. If this was a mistake, don't worry, I restored the removed content. If you think I made a mistake, or if you have any questions, you can leave me a message on my talk page. Thanks! Miacek and his crime-fighting dog (woof!) 15:23, 2 January 2013 (UTC)

Palmyra not in Hawaii

 * I hope we can turn to Panama Canal soon, but in the mean time I found another good background source that might be of use to you for "Insular Areas."
 * _ See GAO Report, "U.S. Insular Areas, | Application of the U.S. Constitution" November 1997. Besides populated areas under discussion at Talk:United States, Great maps for unpopulated areas and nugget histories. Apparently, Palmyra Atoll (p.42) was by tradition a part the Kingdom of Hawaii in the incorporated city of Honolulu. On statehood in 1959, Palmyra was excluded to prevent it from surpassing Los Angeles in square area.
 * _ Senator Jackson of Washington state said for the Record, “Palmyra . . . is technically today a part of the city limits of the city of Honolulu. . . . [We] excluded [Palmyra from the state] in deference to my friend from California who felt that Los Angeles might be discriminated against. That would have been the longest city limits in the world of any incorporated city, extending 1,500 miles to Palmyra.” (p.44) TheVirginiaHistorian (talk) 15:02, 17 January 2013 (UTC)

On the U.S. article
Okay, I'll grant you there's something going on over there. I'm willing to AGF re: VH considering he has attempted to solicit outside opinions... but I feel like there's a IDHT situation going on here. I mean, I found within five minutes searching two major sources (admittedly, legal encyclopedias) that should resolve this entire issue. But I don't get where all these other random sources are coming from or what they're accomplishing with respect to the base U.S. article. And it honestly feels like there's synthesis going on by bringing in all these sources, and then making value determinations with respect to them. I'm also kind of concerned following his burial of my comment that his source doesn't support his contention. I don't really like that... and it feels like this is more of a behavioral issue than a content issue. &mdash;/M endaliv /2¢/Δ's/ 19:58, 14 February 2013 (UTC)

Your comment at VPP
I thought your comment was very smart, and spot on. I don't have anything to add to that discussion that wasn't already said, but I want you to know that I agree fully with your take on the "issue", which is mainly a non-issue. There are wikipedia issues, but they're not discernible simply from contribution rates. Your comment makes that nicely clear, and it's one of the most cogent ones in that thread.

Notice of Dispute resolution discussion
Hello. This message is being sent to inform you that there is currently a discussion at Dispute resolution noticeboard regarding a content dispute in which you may have been involved. Content disputes can hold up article development, therefore we are requesting your participation to help find a resolution. The thread is "Talk:United States, Wikipedia talk:WikiProject United States/Defining the United States of America". {| style="border: 0; width: 100%;"
 * style="width: 50%; vertical-align: top;" |
 * style="width: 50%; vertical-align: top;" |

If you wish to open a DR/N filing, click the "Request dispute resolution" button below this guide or go to Dispute resolution noticeboard/request for an easy to follow, step by step request form.

What this noticeboard is:


 * It is an early step to resolve content disputes after talk page discussions have stalled. If it's something we can't help you with, or is too complex to resolve here, our volunteers will point you in the right direction.

What this noticeboard is not:


 * It is not a place to deal with the behavior of other editors. We deal with disputes about article content, not disputes about user conduct.
 * It is not a place to discuss disputes that are already under discussion at other dispute resolution forums.
 * It is not a substitute for the talk pages: the dispute must have been discussed extensively on a talk page (not just through edit summaries) before resorting to DRN.
 * It is not a court with judges or arbitrators that issue binding decisions: we focus on resolving disputes through consensus, compromise, and explanation of policy.

Things to remember:


 * Discussions should be civil, calm, concise, neutral, and objective. Comment only about the article's content, not the other editors.   Participants who go off-topic or become uncivil may be asked to leave the discussion.
 * Let the other editors know about the discussion by posting {{subst:drn-notice}} on their user talk page.
 * Sign and date your posts with four tildes " ".
 * If you ever need any help, ask one of our volunteers, who will help you as best as they can. You may also wish to read through the FAQ page located here and on the DR/N talkpage.

Please take a moment to review the simple guide and join the discussion. Thank you! EarwigBot   operator  /  talk 13:20, 27 February 2013 (UTC)

I really really want to be a writer-editor

 * Help, Golbez. I really really want just to be a contributing writer-editor. Still no sources for the congress-can-take-away-all-our-rights view, where does this cut-and-paste phraseology originate? It’s like a chain letter from the National Rifle Association on gun control -- wait, no that can't be right. -- Supreme Court says the constitution follows citizenship and citizenship is “irrevocable”. Neither U.S. citizenship nor rights can be “terminated at any time” in some sort of lawless meltdown. And, you are NOT being watched by secret army apache helicopters.
 * _ _ In organized territories, citizens have more rights that in the organic acts because the Court keeps expanding them faster than Congress has (since 1952). Wake Island is not organized, it is administered directly by an unelected executive department as are the other unpopulated possessions: interior, nasa or army. I think the State Dept. Manual says if born on Wake, status is "indeterminate" if not by blood citizen or by blood national status.
 * I’ve got a couple of posts at Talk:United States because I want to get back to being a writer-editor. And I think I found a cool source for our discussion on Panama Canal and citizenship as soon as we get time. TheVirginiaHistorian (talk) 10:43, 9 March 2013 (UTC)

United States
Hi Golbez,

I'm not sure why you undid my edit, considering your previous edits state that the version I brought it to is the consensus implementation. Furthermore, while the demonym is American, that doesn't always say something about the name of the locale. An example is The Netherlands (they're called the Dutch). I don't really have a stake in this so if the consensus is to remove that statement, I'm fine with it. Transcendence (talk) 18:52, 3 April 2013 (UTC)
 * You can find plenty of irregular demonyms at []. There's nothing inherent to a demonym that requires it to be a derivative of the name of the locale. I don't know if there is a consensus for the term "colloquially". Please do not accuse me of using a false consensus ("but do so without relying on a false consensus to do so"), I was referring to your edit summary at []. My edit brought the article to the same state as that diff and you wrote that is the consensus implementation. I never said there was a consensus for the term "colloquially" itself, merely that the state of the article, by your own words, was at a consensus state, nothing more, nothing less.
 * With regards to the statement at hand, I'm not sure that there is a right answer here since neither of us can bring citations to this. I'm arguing that official correspondence and documents such as the Constitution do not use the singular term "America" to refer to the country. However, in practice and informally, government officials and websites do refer to the country as "America". So how specific we do want to get here and what constitutes encyclopedic quality here? With regards to the acronyms, official correspondence does refer to the country as "U.S" and "U.S.A". Some examples are military insignia and emblems. Hence, it's not colloquial since it's used in formal settings. Transcendence (talk) 19:15, 3 April 2013 (UTC)
 * If you want to change it back, then do it. I don't care anymore. Transcendence (talk) 19:37, 3 April 2013 (UTC)

Vandalism?
Hi, I noticed you're in the list of wikipedia administrators so I randomly chose you to possibly help with an article. I was editing and noticed the article Allipura was changed significantly and can't tell if the person who edited it is a vandal or not. Maybe you can help since you're an administrator?

Tone
The tone of your last post on Talk:United States is quite confrontational, and I'm guessing intentionally so. I understand why you're saying what you're saying (although I have a slightly different take on their discussion), but I don't think what you wrote was productive on an article talk page. Maybe it would be better on a user talkpage. The last fragment after the end of the comma in the last sentence seems very unnecessary. Unlike the rest of your post, it doesn't really communicate more than what was said before, and it's especially personal. It seems to me as just something that would lead to more sniping, rather than generating anything productive. Imagine if something like that was said on an AA2 page. Anyway, this isn't a warning or anything like that, just my opinion as a third (fourth?) party observer. I'm sure everyone's tired o the entire thing by now, and if that the less the talkpage stirs emotions the more saner we'll all feel when we go to bed. Cheers, CMD (talk) 21:53, 8 April 2013 (UTC)

DC 'incorporation'
Generally in our disagreements, you maintain an admirable rigor and integrity. One exchange troubles. I posit that to be incorporated in a federal republic, a population must be represented in the national legislature by that nation’s constitutional practice.

Although USG directly administered DC by Congress and its appointees 1791 until “home rule”, there was no elected self-government and no delegate in Congress until 1972. Therefore, I said the population of DC was not incorporated into the federal republic until its territorial Member of Congress was authorized in 1972.

– The bumper stickers read, “DC--the last colony” before passage, because all US territories had self-government with delegates to congress prior to DC—a sequence which I was perhaps unclear about in the discussion. You then summarized my position, DC was not in US possession until 1972, a reductio ad absurdum – not your style over the course of over a year. What happened?

Thanks for the undo at AN/i
No idea what happened. I thought I hit edit, changed my own spelling error, and hit save. I'm dealing with a blown head gasket on my car so perhaps my mind was elsewhere today. Again thanks for reverting me. Fyunck(click) (talk) 21:39, 27 August 2013 (UTC)

UNESCO note on PR
hey. thanks for the animated map at ACW. Footnote to ongoing reading program. Please note that UNESCO lists --- La Fortaleza and San Juan National Historic Site in Puerto Rico --- since 1983, as within the United States of America “World Heritage List”, including the US National Park Service site there, as though Puerto Rico were a part of the US. TheVirginiaHistorian (talk) 09:45, 12 September 2013 (UTC)
 * That is because the U.S. signed the World Heritage Convention, and therefore can nominate sites, while PR cannot. Similarly, the Town of St George, which is in Bermuda, and several natural sites in other British Overseas Territories are listed under the UK.  TFD (talk) 19:45, 12 September 2013 (UTC)

Canada provinces evolution 2.gif
I noticed you were the editor switching the Territorial evolution of Canada article to the new version of the animated gif (back in August '09). However, you did not switch over the instance over at Provinces and territories of Canada.

Since I see no reason why not use the version deemed superior everywhere, I am doing so. The reason for this message is that if you know of a good reason not to, you can revert my change and no harm done. Cheers, 90.229.34.175 (talk) 08:52, 15 October 2013 (UTC)

Featured list reviews
Golbez, thank you for taking the time to review two of the lists I've nominated for Featured Article status: List of colleges and universities in Washington, D.C. and List of colleges and universities in West Virginia. I moved the key down in the West Virginia list, per your suggestion, and I've finished addressing each of your comments on the Washington, D.C. list. Please take a look at both lists, and let me know on the respective nomination pages if you have any outstanding comments or concerns. Thank you again for all your guidance and assistance in getting these lists up to FA status! -- Caponer (talk) 21:56, 8 February 2014 (UTC)

Territorial Evolution maps
Hi, Golbez! Your territorial evolution maps are great and extremely informative. It would be cool if you could add the other territories to the slides as well - Cuba, Puerto Rico, and the other Caribbean and Pacific islands. I know it would be a lot of work, but it would properly complete the picture. Perhaps if you move the dates to the top-left, it would leave space along the bottom for these islands. Keep up the great work! BigSteve (talk) 11:50, 23 March 2014 (UTC)

p.s. You could also add the Jefferson Territory as a dashed-line red square between 1859-61.
