I've opened a discussion at talkpage suggesting the above move. I believe it is not controversial so I haven't used the formal 'plate. If you have an opinion either way you're welcome to provide it.shaidar cuebiyar (talk) 23:42, 20 January 2014 (UTC)

Bulgaria–Latvia relations
I had forgotten about that - probably meant to expand the article, then forgot. I imagine there is a fair amount of dull but notable interaction between the two countries, both ex-Soviet, now EU. Were you thinking of doing anything to it? If not, I will expand it a bit. Aymatth2 (talk) 14:02, 29 January 2014 (UTC)

Festival of Neglected Romantic Music
I hope you don't get mad at me, but I removed another PROD of yours just now. The article claims the fest has been reviewed by the New York Times and Time magazine. Assuming that is true, there should be paper or online good sources to prove notability. Can I have another week to fix this? Bearian (talk) 20:58, 30 January 2014 (UTC)

Reference tools you may find useful!
Reference tool for Google books

I use this tool often as it simplifies adding book sources immensely! You can go to Google books and search for your subject and as you find the references that directly support the claims, just copy the url address and pop it into the link's box and hit enter and it creates the entire mark-up needed. Just copy the mark up and add it directly behind the claim. Simple as that. For other book sources found in real life, news sources, we sources etc., you can use the "prove it" tool in the editing window in the Wiki tool kit or the "cite" feature located next to the "Help" link. Happy editing.--Mark Miller (talk) 08:25, 13 March 2014 (UTC)

A new one for your list of absurd arguments used in Deletion discussions
"strong do NOT delete People fought and died for the vote, for freedom and democracy. Therefore all elections have established notability. Besides if you search wiki, a number of UK local elections are covered. Therefore people do find local elections notable"

Now that the sock puppet, who obviously stole the identity of the person of the same name, is blocked, we can talk about potentially improving the article. I know that the references are not the best, but I found and wrote about the company when I was doing updates on Singapore e-commerce as few months ago. I found references that are currently there, and I saw that company announced plans for expansion that would make it even more present in media. I thought that there will be space to improve the article as the time passes, with currently established marginal notability. What are your thoughts? Thank you. --BiH (talk) 12:36, 19 May 2014 (UTC)

Bar, Ukraine
Greetings! I'll continue to keep an eye on the Bar article, since it appears that there are several editors with personal agendas. It's ironic, but I also oversee the Bar, Montenegro article as well. One comment though, I see you deleted the entire Culture section. You might consider simply editing it to remove the peacock terms, rather than deleting the entire section. There were some kernels of good info in there, regarding their festivals, and city articles do encourage "Culture" or "Arts and culture" sections.

You currently appear to be engaged in an edit war. Users are expected to collaborate with others, to avoid editing disruptively, and to try to reach a consensus rather than repeatedly undoing other users' edits once it is known that there is a disagreement. Please be particularly aware that Wikipedia's policy on edit warring states: If you find yourself in an editing dispute, use the article's talk page to discuss controversial changes; work towards a version that represents consensus among editors. You can post a request for help at an appropriate noticeboard or seek dispute resolution. In some cases it may be appropriate to request temporary page protection. If you engage in an edit war, you may be blocked from editing. Aquintero82 (talk) 14:52, 16 November 2014 (UTC)
 * 1) Edit warring is disruptive regardless of how many reverts you have made.
 * 2) Do not edit war even if you believe you are right.

Foreign relations of Mexico articles
You claim there is a 'consensus' on how an article should be written, yet, you do not provide any proof regarding this 'way of writing'. I've recently searched through several articles of foreign relations of the United States, Russia, France and China (just to name a few and because they have the most articles relating to the subject) and these article, according to you, do not follow under the 'agreed consensus.' Looking through your contributions, you seem to have a big interest in foreign relations of Mexico articles. You repeatedly come in, re-arange articles the way you see fit, yet you do not create articles nor contribute to them. Either provide tangible proof that indeed there was a 'consensus' stating how articles are to be written, and if so, be so kind as to update every article relating to the subject in Wikipedia or please refrain changing articles to the way you see fit, especially ones that I've created and have been updating and maintaining (which are most of the article relating to Mexico's foreign policy.) Regards, Aquintero82, (talk) 10:48, 16 November 2014 (UTC)
 * I have edited 100s of bilateral articles, the established long term consensus is to have diplomatic missions in the intro. You seem to want to introduce different style that you prefer to the Mexico series which is inconsistent. You have no consensus to introduce a different style and should seek it at WikiProject International relations/Bilateral relations task force before reverting again LibStar (talk) 14:27, 16 November 2014 (UTC)
 * As mentioned previously, show me where I may see the consensus. Usually its saved on a talk page for reference. Also, as I also mentioned, there 100s of articles that according to you, do not follow 'your standard'. I'm quite perplexed! Aquintero82, (talk), 15:34, 16 November 2014 (UTC)
 * You say that I'm making changes "just to make changes". I can say the same about you. You do not add or contribute in any way to the articles, you simply make changes to things that you do not like. How are you improving it? See consensus yourself or let us go to arbitration. Aquintero82, (talk), 15:39, 16 November 2014 (UTC)
 * arbitration? You have to be joking. Why haven't you gained consensus on the WP bilateral cproject page. I am ensuring it is consistent Wight other non Mexican bilateral pages. For a while you used to put long form country names, you finally conceded and stopped doing it after I told you it was not the norm for bilaterals. LibStar (talk) 14:43, 16 November 2014 (UTC)
 * I can say the same about you as to why you have not gained consensus. As to why I have not put official names in my articles is because many of them are just too long. As for the link you provided above, how is that relevant to what we are discussing. It just mentions a bunch of people who joined the group mostly in 2009 (yourself included). Have diplomatic missions resident in the into is to bulky and does not work, especially when many of them have consulates and the like. It is better (and looks better) to create a new section.Aquintero82, (talk), 15:49, 16 November 2014 (UTC)
 * if you think it is a bulky you have never ever mentioned it till now and is something you should discuss with those interested. I know about 5 editors with an active interest in bilaterals who would be happy to discuss. LibStar (talk) 14:52, 16 November 2014 (UTC)
 * So be it, arrange a discussion, however, we should also open it to the public so it is not biased for maybe because you know these individuals and therefore it wouldn't be fair.Aquintero82, (talk), 15:55, 16 November 2014 (UTC)

that's why I suggested a discussion page, in the meantime you continue to revert despite been given a formal warning, not sure why. LibStar (talk) 14:56, 16 November 2014 (UTC)
 * I suggest that you also stop making changes. The rules apply to both of us, not just me! Aquintero82, (talk), 16:46, 16 November 2014 (UTC)

About foreign relations of Uruguay
Hi LibStar. I see that you have been editing several articles relating to foreign relations of Uruguay. In particular, you have been deleting a reference link, adding the note "Rm generic text recycled in many Uruguay bilaterals".

OK, I acknowledge that my statement "Opportunities lying ahead are enormous" is too generic. But please, don't forget that the articles are stubs, after all. Maybe you don't understand Spanish and, accordingly, cannot read the PDF file included in the link Asia-Pacific: opportunities. Please, let me explain you what it is all about.

Uruguay XXI is an Investment and Export Promotion Institute that works to help internationalize the Uruguayan economy. And, please, notice that I have no direct relationship with that institute, I only take it as a valid local reference.

The report Asia-Pacific: opportunities presents the current economic and trade trends in the Asia-Pacific region, its trade relations with Uruguay, trade opportunities and ongoing investments in our country.
