Hi. Thank you for your recent edits. Wikipedia appreciates your help. We noticed though that when you edited Teer enta, you added a link pointing to the disambiguation page Ahmed Mekky. Such links are almost always unintended, since a disambiguation page is merely a list of "Did you mean..." article titles. Read the FAQ* Join us at the DPL WikiProject.

Disruptive Edits in Malankara Orthodox Syrian Church article
Dear Wikipedia Admin, Kindly note, User:Kokkarani is continuously involving in biased and POV edits in this article. He is in not in agreement with the neutral references providing by other editors. Also he is not letting others to edit this page by repeated edit reverts.The discussion with him in article's talk page is no use as he changes his stands time to time. Seeking your help here. Kindly intervene.. ---117.219.248.129 (talk) 04:47, 16 July 2016 (UTC)

The matter here is whether Malankara Orthodox Syrian Church is Autocephalous or not. This has been a big controversy in Malankara Church, which was finally decided by the Supreme court of India in 1995 (Malankara Church case). Please see the talk page in Malankara Orthodox Syrian Church. The Supreme court of India clearly declared that Malankara Orthodox Syrian Church is NOT autocephalous but a part/division of the Syrian Orthodox Church. However some editors wanted to project that Malankara Orthodox Syrian Church is an Autocephalous church. They are not willing to provide sufficient reasons to state that. Hence the word Autocepahalous is challenged. The Supreme court of India verdict in 1995 is legally binding to Malankara Orthodox Syrian Church. This is the real fact. Whether to include Autocecepahlous is the matter of controversy here. I think Administrtor can intervene here and take a decision. Thnaks Kokkarani (talk) 05:00, 16 July 2016 (UTC)

User:Kokkarani(aka Phantom)'s biased edits in this page are not only limited to this point - "whether Malankara Orthodox Syrian Church is Autocephalous or not". Kindly go through this user's edit history, when Kokkarani recently started editing in this page (1)This editor removed the statement that Malankara Orthodox Syrian Church(MOSC) is an Oriental Orthodox Church. Every one who understands eastern Christianity knows that MOSC is one among the Oriental Orthodox Church. Other Oriental Orthodox churches are Coptic Orthodox Church, Armenian Apostolic Church, Syrian Orthodox Church, Ethiopian Orthodox church and Eritrean Orthodox Church. This I explained in the articles talk page in detail. But [User:Kokkarani]] keep on removing the mention that MOSC is an Oriental Orthodox Church. As you can read from the Oriental Orthodoxy article and other sources available in public domain that Oriental Orthodox communion is composed of six autocephalous churches (including MOSC) 2)Then User:Kokkarani wanted to take out the statement that MOSC is also known as Indian Orthodox Church. Provided multiple reference(sites of sister churches,public media etc) but Kokkarani was not accepting these references and wanted to have references from Encyclopedia and involved in editing war. Finally I had to find a Encyclopedia reference for this known fact !!

These edits/repeated reverts should be considered as serious vandalism to a Wikipedia Article ---45.125.147.173 (talk) 08:20, 16 July 2016 (UTC)


 * You are all engaged in an edit war. As such, I have fully protected the article from editing for one week. Work out your content dispute on the article talk page.

Dear Admin, you (or any one in the world) can see the edit history and understand the fact. Kindly verify.---45.126.204.141 (talk) 04:59, 30 July 2016 (UTC)

Also please see the talk section to understand User :Kokkarani(also known as Phantom and Mandrake)'s attitude towards other editors and whole Wikipedia community. He had uploaded an Image from his collection and not ready to provide any details when other editors requested for the details!! ---45.125.146.70 (talk) 08:57, 30 July 2016 (UTC)

I request the article may be edit protected because of continuous vandalism from different IP editors.I suspect the same editor using different IP address and engaged in edit war in Marthoma Syrian church and Jacobite Syrian church. ThanksMandrake_the_Magician (talk) 14:43, 30 July 2016 (UTC)

Dear Wiki Admin, The fact is User:Kokkarani does VANDALISM in all Kerala Churches pages to prove his view is right. Of course different editors from different IPs will try to PROTECT the page. Kindly go through all edits of User:Kokkarani, you can realize the fact!! -59.95.67.40 (talk) 14:57, 30 July 2016 (UTC) While accusing other editors User:Kokkarani didn't notice that Marthoma Church is already IP protected. If he is having any such doubts I challenge for a SOCK PUPPET test. But who will do damage control for user:Kokkarani's vandalism?? -59.95.67.40 (talk) 15:07, 30 July 2016 (UTC)

I found something you might be interested in
Thank you for the clarification of "LGBT".

You pointed out that LGBT does not fit with the word "orientation", because T (transgender) is not a sexual orientation.

I found something related that you might be interested in...

The Category:LGBT is included in Category:Sexual orientation, but not in the Category:Gender identity.

I just thought you'd like to know.

I wonder if having LGBT in Category:Sexual orientation could cause confusion, with readers assuming the "T" in LGBT belongs in that category. The Transhumanist 07:32, 4 September 2016 (UTC)

A new user right for New Page Patrollers
Hi.

A new user group, New Page Reviewer, has been created in a move to greatly improve the standard of new page patrolling. The user right can be granted by any admin at PERM. It is highly recommended that admins look beyond the simple numerical threshold and satisfy themselves that the candidates have the required skills of communication and an advanced knowledge of notability and deletion. Admins are automatically included in this user right.

It is anticipated that this user right will significantly reduce the work load of admins who patrol the performance of the patrollers. However,due to the complexity of the rollout, some rights may have been accorded that may later need to be withdrawn, so some help will still be needed to some extent when discovering wrongly applied deletion tags or inappropriate pages that escape the attention of less experienced reviewers, and above all, hasty and bitey tagging for maintenance. User warnings are available here but very often a friendly custom message works best.

If you have any questions about this user right, don't hesitate to join us at WT:NPR. (Sent to all admins) .MediaWiki message delivery (talk) 13:47, 15 November 2016 (UTC)

Help me Aleta? Re: Bleona...
Hi Sis- I'm still sick--getting sicker again. I remember in the external links in past years a category for people who support LGBT issues and lifestyles. Usually, someone beat me to the punch on most of them. But since I was sick in that coma three years ago, and never got much better, I have to limit myself to little bitty edits. Can you figure out how to add LGBT rights activists from Albania. Is this correct for Bleona? If not, can you fix it? It's identical to one in Australia, but she appears to be the first from Albania. --Leahtwosaints (talk) 02:08, 16 December 2016 (UTC)
 * Hi Leah, good to hear from you! I'm sorry to see you have been ill though. I see the article says she headlined at a pride festival. I'm not sure that is enough on its own to justify a rights activist category. Do you more specific information/references that points to that? Lady  of  Shalott  16:58, 16 December 2016 (UTC)

Assistance requested, as AIV is protected against an IP making a report
Hi LadyofShalott, I'm asking for your help, particularly with an uncivil account who seems to be evading a block:. I've pared the article in question, American Repertory Theater of Western New York, and would appreciate extra eyes and watchlisting, since it's been maintained for a few years as a press release. Also, I was called a 'Trump asshole', which is about the lowest slop of invective one can imagine. (My computer appears to be bouncing me back and forth between accounts tonight; I'm also the 2601).

Daphné Bürki
Hi, LoS, and thanks for your efforts in trying to clean up this article. I'm sorry to bug you about it, but from comparing your edits to the sources, I'm afraid I rather suspect that you don't speak French?— S Marshall T/C 20:17, 13 February 2017 (UTC)
 * I do, although I admit to being rather rusty. However, I was looking only at the French WP article in comparison, rather than the actual cited sources. What in particular is bothering you? Lady  of  Shalott  20:19, 13 February 2017 (UTC)
 * Well, for example, our article says she married Sylvain Quimène and cited this source. Does the source support the claim? The basic issue with these content translations is that they were generated with a couple of clicks, and we can't assume that the person who generated them speaks English.  In this case they didn't.  Or else they didn't bother to check their translation, so now we've got a BLP which says the subject is married to the wrong bloke.  (I suspect that at some point she married Travis Bürki, although I couldn't say whether she's still married to him.) The reason for WP:CSD is because of the asymmetry of effort involved here.  You've literally got to check every source in the original language to make sure that the translation script hasn't fouled up the meaning.  You and I have already spent far, far more time on this than the original creator ever did and we've got an inaccurate BLP in the mainspace.  Could you possibly reconsider your decision to decline the speedy?  There are 3,583 articles I'm trying to check and I'd like to retire in 20 years. :)  All the best— S Marshall  T/C 20:48, 13 February 2017 (UTC)
 * OK . Point taken. :( Lady  of  Shalott  20:50, 13 February 2017 (UTC)

 * As a rejoiner, I just looked at the American Aviation Historical Society, an article about a similar organization and yet the CAHS article was deleted; this makes no sense. FWiW Bzuk (talk) 06:35, 22 February 2017 (UTC)
 * Hi, I've put it into your userspace at User:Bzuk/Canadian Aviation Historical Society. Lady  of  Shalott  02:44, 23 February 2017 (UTC)
 * To your comparison of the two articles: one is a brief description of the organization; the other is promoting it. Lady  of  Shalott  02:46, 23 February 2017 (UTC)
 * I fail to see that the original article is considered "spam" but it looks not to be irretrievable and can be revised to meet everyone's expectations. I just wish that had been an option previously. FWiW Bzuk (talk) 07:20, 23 February 2017 (UTC)

Mussolini family
Hi,

A little background: Mussolini (disambiguation) was a dab page until I realized that the only entries were people with the surname "Mussolini". That would make it a surname article/list, not a dab page. I noticed then that all the entries were from one family; everyone was related to Benito Mussolini. I moved the page to "Mussolini family" and made it into a stub. Then, because pages with "disambiguation" in the title must either be a dab page or redirect to one, I marked the original page (now a redirect) for CSD G6 as housekeeping.

You declined my request because it does target a dab page.... Mussolini family looks a lot like a dab page at the moment, but it isn't one. Dab pages are not articles, and therefore are not expected to have references. Nor are they ever stubs, no matter how short they may be. The best way to tell if a page is a disambiguation page is to look for the template at the bottom that starts This disambiguation page...

You also said it's ...a reasonable search term. In this case, Mussolini is a redirect to the article about the dictator, where there is a hatnote to Mussolini family, so anyone searching on "Mussolini" will find the rest of the family if that's what they want. I'm pretty sure no one is going to search for "Mussolini (disambiguation)". :-)

I do a lot of work on disambiguation pages; one project I've been focusing on is getting rid of redirects with "(disambiguation)" in their titles that no longer target dab pages. I always look around to see if there is any other dab they might be reasonably retargeted to but, if not, I fix any links that exist and mark them for speedy deletion. You may run across more of these in the future. For this one, though, will you reconsider your decline? Thanks. — Gorthian (talk) 04:47, 25 February 2017 (UTC)
 * I undid my decline. I'll leave it for someone else to delete if they really think that is the correct course of action. Lady  of  Shalott  04:56, 25 February 2017 (UTC)

Permission error You do not have permission to create this page, for the following reason: The page title or edit you have tried to create has been restricted to administrators at this time. It matches an entry on the local or global blacklists, which is usually used to prevent vandalism.

Is it possible for you to create the page? Hmlarson (talk) 02:54, 25 July 2017 (UTC)

Delection of two of my articles: Aderemi Adegbite and Folu Agoi
Dear LadyofShalott,

Greetings from Lagos, Nigeria.

Two of my articles have been deleted and I need your help to recover them for me, so as to improve the articles. Actually, the pages were flagged last month by Oluwa2Chainz and I started a talk with him but he never responded until now.

This article https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Aderemi_Adegbite was created about four years ago and to it was approved. I was surprised to see it flagged last month by Oluwa2Chainz for no reason or explanation. And the second article was written last month: https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Folu_Agoi

Please help retrieve both articles so as to improve them.

Best regards, Ayandaabeke (talk) 04:41, 15 August 2017 (UTC)

Invitation to Admin confidence survey
Hello,

Beginning in September 2017, the Wikimedia Foundation Anti-harassment tool team will be conducting a survey to gauge how well tools, training, and information exists to assist English Wikipedia administrators in recognizing and mitigating things like sockpuppetry, vandalism, and harassment.

The survey should only take 5 minutes, and your individual response will not be made public. This survey will be integral for our team to determine how to better support administrators.

To take the survey sign up here and we will send you a link to the form.

We really appreciate your input!

Please let us know if you wish to opt-out of all massmessage mailings from the Anti-harassment tools team.

Can you check my article?
Hello how are you? I am a new user in Wikipedia and I wrote my first article. When I registered on the site I tried to do it but I did it in the wrong place - on my user page - and you deleted it, now I was reading and I did it in my Sandbox, I would like you to be able to review it to see if it can be published. I know I can submit it as a Draft, but I saw that the number of outstanding items is very large, and theoretically the article is ready, maybe you can advise me. Thank you!--Marie Steypi (talk) 05:34, 20 December 2017 (UTC)
 * Hi,, I have moved your article to Tony Marioghae. It could use additional references. Lady  of  Shalott  04:38, 24 December 2017 (UTC)

London, R. Watts
Can you make sense of "London, R. Watts" in this photo description on Wikipedia Commons ? Is it a name? R. Watts is a name and it was published in London? Who is R. Watts? I think it says something about R. Watts for Cadell and Davis. Thanks for any insights you can provide. I'm thinking it's a Robert Watts.. So is he the author? Thanks for any insights you can provide. I looked a coiple places but am stumped. FloridaArmy (talk) 23:29, 3 February 2018 (UTC)
 * It seems to me R. Watts is the printer. And he did other work for that artist. I will see if I can find anything else. FloridaArmy (talk) 23:31, 3 February 2018 (UTC)
 * Ah, I was going to guess that R. Watts was the photographer. I looked at the Worldcat listing, but it doesn't seem to help with that particular question. Lady  of  Shalott  23:33, 3 February 2018 (UTC)
 * I found a Richard Watts (Printer, of Crown Court, Temple Bar). Going to follow up on that. A bit early for photography I think. FloridaArmy (talk) 23:34, 3 February 2018 (UTC)

The Crystal Ball (painting)
Hi. Wouldn't that be so obvious, like seeing a horse in a painting and adding the category 'Horses in art', that it's a "given" (but I guess on Wikipedia a given is only good in horseshoes). But more importantly, and why I came here, what a great user name! And what a cool typeface! Good to meet you if I haven't before. Randy Kryn (talk) 00:38, 7 February 2018 (UTC)
 * Hi, Randy, nice to meet you! (I don't think we have interacted before.) Thanks for the kind words. In answer to your question, no, I don't think it is obvious. I am not, by comparison, questioning the books in art category, which you also added (I think). In this case, I just see a woman. Looking at a crystal ball does not automatically make her a witch. I'll admit it seems a reasonable guess, but I don't think it so solid an assumption that it can be added without commentary. Lady  of  Shalott  00:43, 7 February 2018 (UTC)
 * You are absolutely right, and good catch. Waterhouse's paintings usually have a great backstory, and in this one, if she's not a witch but a visitor, then she knows the owner of the crystal ball well enough not to back-slowly-out-of-the-house/run-like-the-dickens upon seeing the random skull (or what could just be a fancy ashtray). Wikipedia is built as a playground for fair witnesses, per Heinlein. Thanks, and I hope someone eventually comes up with a cite. Randy Kryn (talk) 01:06, 7 February 2018 (UTC)
 * Me too (whether she be a witch or friend thereof): I'd love to know more! Cheers, Lady  of  Shalott  01:26, 7 February 2018 (UTC)

Thanks
Thank you so much for the good work you do here. Cullen328  Let's discuss it  03:47, 7 February 2018 (UTC)

Wills County, Georgia
Greetings LadyofShalott! Do you know anything about a Wills County, Georgia? I find some mentions of it searching "Wills County, Georgia" on Google Books but nothing subatantive. Is it a misspelling? Former county? Something else? Thanks for any insight or suggestions. FloridaArmy (talk) 00:26, 10 February 2018 (UTC)
 * No, I don't, but I'll see if I can find anything. Where did you find initial reference to it? Lady  of  Shalott  06:08, 12 February 2018 (UTC)

Smmurphy stated it's likely a misspelling of Wilkes County. Which kind of makes sense. FloridaArmy (talk) 14:01, 12 February 2018 (UTC)
