Shahada
Salam brother. Of course, by Allah, the Shahadah is the most significant symbol for us. However, in this secular encyclopaedia, it is not about what WE feel represents us, but rather what universally represents us symbolically - and few people recognise the Shahadah. The crescent is more symbolic and universal, but then it's not really Islamic. As for the Mosque, I think that is definetely not a good option, as it could be a mandhir! So, to clarify, I would like it to be the Shahadah, but I agree that the crescent has a stronger case for being used, but either way, I disagree with the mosque. Just thought I might tell you my opinion, and although I support your request all the way, I still think it is not the best option. That is why I am neutral.

Major work on Colombo article
Dear Mystìc,

I noticed you've put a lot of effort into improving this article.Yesterday I made some changes to your edits, but I don't want to disrupt your work.My changes were mostly removing internal wikilinks to articles that are not relevant to Colombo.I thought I would point out that if you link ordinary words, like I just did, it isn't helpful to the reader because if they follow the link they will not find anything related to the subject, so it's normal practice to only link to an article that provides extra information about something specific to the main article.These concepts are discussed more fully under WP:MoS, which is highly recommended reading.Happy editing!Slowmover 14:56, 31 May 2006 (UTC)
 * P.S. I also restored the disambiguation link to the "Columbo" television series, because it is a commonly misspelled word.Similarly, "Columbia" and "Colombia" are often confused, so people searching for one of these often end up at the wrong article.Slowmover 14:56, 31 May 2006 (UTC)
 * Thanks a lot for your advice and help, I will sure keep what you said in my mind, happy to learn from you.  « ₪ M ÿ š † í c ₪ »  (T) 17:39, 31 May 2006 (UTC)

shahada issue
hi mystic, I saw you left a message at my talk page. I actually dont understand what you wanted me to do. where's the actual discussion? I'd like to have my say there. Suleyman Habeeb 19:14, 1 June 2006 (UTC)

Vote stacking on Template:Islam
You have recently been observed canvassing for votes regarding Template:Islam.Please note that this may be construed by many administrators as internal spamming, something severely frowned upon by most administrators on Wikipedia.This behavior in fact on one occasion contributed towards a Arbitration Committee ruling of disruptive behavior that resulted in blocking.Please do not game the system and respect Wikipedia's principle of consensus-building by ceasing to further canvass for votes, and instead allow the process to instead reflect the opinions of editors that were actively involved in the matter at hand. Thanks. Netscott 22:14, 1 June 2006 (UTC)
 * I am sorry I didnt get what you are saying!!! Can you give a diff of an instance that I have asked anyone to vote for my image? I have only asked people to make there comment. Please understand the wikipedia community does not just comprise of you and me. There are thousands of users who would be interested in matters that they are not aware of, I was only asking them to have there say. There is no need for you to threaten me. And I kindly request you to stop stalking me.  « ₪ M ÿ š † í c ₪ »  (T) 08:44, 2 June 2006 (UTC)
 * And also remember I am not the one who started that "stupid" vote count, I am aware that vote counting is discouraged in wikipedia, I have expressed my displeasure in the template talk page about this. And you are responsible for starting a count.  « ₪ M ÿ š † í c ₪ »  (T) 08:46, 2 June 2006 (UTC)
 * Your utilization of the word "stalking" when referring to me would be a violation that falls under Wikipedia "no personal attack" policy. I suggest you refrain from utlizing such personal attackish terminology when describing my behavior relative to your attempt at vote stacking. There is no need for one to "stalk" you to see the evidence of your attempt to "game the system" in terms of having the shahada image you added to Wikipedia included on that template when users like User:Suleyman_Habeeb who has never been involved in discussions about it suddenly appear from nowhere to "vote" ("kindly indicate your preference"="vote") about it. You did the same thing in asking User:JuanMuslim to flat out "vote". As I indicated on my latest commentary in the "Consensus? Nonsense" section, my list was never meant as a poll but was made to refute your asinine claim of "consensus" for including the shahada image. If you're talking about "stupid" this false claim surely qualifies. Netscott 12:16, 2 June 2006 (UTC)


 * Asking someone to tell there preference is sure not canvassing!! I kindly request you to withdraw your allegations that I was canvassing. Canvassing means the act of persuading ; communicatioon intended to induce belief.
 * I didn't persuade anyone to vote in favour of me, all the editors whom I have approached, could've very well voted against it if they saw any reason for it. And I would like to ask what were YOU doing when you asked this from Azate, if I was canvassing this sure too qualifies as canvassing. I have apologized for my previous claim of consensus then, as I was new to wikipedia, I didn't have clear picture about the policy. Anyway I am not in the mudslinging business.  « ₪ M ÿ š † í c ₪ »  (T) 13:19, 2 June 2006 (UTC)

Vote Stacking proof
Actually your "gaming of the system" was in fact quite a bit worse than I had realized but now that I have reviewed your edits I can see that you've been essentially canvassing all along. You intitially started out mass mailing a group of users neutrally asking about the new image you wanted to add to the Template. 

But when that didn't work you proceeded to persuade and induce belief that the group you spammed should support the image you added by internal spamming the following message across dozens of user talk pages:


 * 1) spam
 * 2) spam
 * 3) spam
 * 4) spam
 * 5) spam
 * 6) spam
 * 7) spam
 * 8) spam
 * 9) spam
 * 10) spam
 * 11) spam

 * 20) spam
 * 21) spam
 * 22) spam
 * 23) spam
 * 24) spam
 * 25) spam
 * 26) spam
 * 27) spam

When that didn't work you proceeded to continue to game the system:

"indicate your vote"

"would you kindly consider voting "for it" thanks"

"change back to 'for it' please"

"please include your name in the section for consensus"

And you accuse me of "gaming the system" when I invited one person to join the debate (actually discuss "what represents Islam")? Let if go already! Netscott 20:09, 2 June 2006 (UTC)
 * Very good research indeed. I admit that it may be (is) spamming, but was not canvassing!!! And trully I didn't know that posting the same message to several users is not allowed in wikipedia, until you posted that warning earlier. I appologize for my mistake. But I didn't do any canvassing. For instance in this particular case, the user had expressed his consent in favor of the new image but hadn't indicated it (in your Consensus? Nonesense section). Since you people were counting votes I asked him/her to put his signature there. And I again like to tell you some of these users actually voted against it. So that is evidence that I didn't persuade them to vote for it. My only intention was to have more people in the discussion, so that it would be the most correct representation of Islam.  « ₪ M ÿ š † í c ₪ »  (T) 20:31, 2 June 2006 (UTC)
 * The language in your spam message isn't neutral but rather is meant to induce support for the adoption of the shahada image. In your message you are virtually questioning the faith of Muslims who might not want to support the shahada image. Why don't you just drop this issue? Since you did "game the system" the true consensus as it would have been about the whole issue is now very doubtful. You are a very productive and highly positive contributing editor on Wikipedia (I noticed your other highly beneficial edits in my research). This Shahada issue is starting to severely taint your persona relative to demonstrating good faith and is becoming a vitriolic point of contention that sooner should go away.

Your post on my talk page is incredible, considering postings here Wikipedia:WikiProject_Islam:The_Muslim_Guild/Categories requesting votes. There is no wikipedia policy against informing long-standing members of votes the outcomes of which may interest them. In no case did I request that the party vote one way or the other. Your outrage is highly misdirected. --Briangotts (Talk) (Contrib) 20:12, 16 June 2006 (UTC)


 * Brother I understand what you are saying they are wrong to ask to vote or induce people to vote.. "That is Gaming the System", (See above how I learnt my lesson) Whoever does it its wrong maybe you can tell them to stop doing it.. probably they dont know..  « ₪ M ÿ š † í c ₪ »  (T) 20:21, 16 June 2006 (UTC)


 * The difference is that I sent the message only to people I know and have collaborated with on Wikipedia, who I knew would be interested in the vote. I did not randomly select people for spamming. Nor did I post a request to vote on a blatantly POV wikiproject page requesting votes. As it happens many of the people I contacted voted to rename the category, and after discussion I came around to their point of view, not the other way around. That's not gaming the system. That IS the system. Briangotts (Talk) (Contrib) 20:27, 16 June 2006 (UTC)
 * On the contrary suppose people who you asked, voted in support of you? Wouldn't that be gaming the system? See brother, my idea is not to threaten you or anything.. I dont want you to do the same mistake I have done (ofcourse in my case it was totally unintentional as I didn't know the rules I assume the same with you). And I am only being nice to you.  « ₪ M ÿ š † í c ₪ »  (T) 20:42, 16 June 2006 (UTC)


 * Dear Mystic: I came to User talk:Briangotts for an unrelated reason and I saw your post. I would welcome Brian's notification but I didn't get it. I must say that I find your intimidation and threats unacceptable. ←Humus sapiens ну? 20:32, 16 June 2006 (UTC)


 * I did not take your post as a threat, just ironic in light of what other folks are doing in this vote. I think, though, that you either misunderstand the Wikipedia policies in question, or else you fail to see the difference between indiscriminate spamming and contacting a few (less than 10) people you know will want to be informed about this or that vote. Briangotts (Talk) (Contrib) 20:48, 16 June 2006 (UTC)
 * In my limited experience with wikipedia I have learnt that if people are interested in something they will definitely participate in it.. There is no need for anyone to inform others.. If the topic in question is of any importance to them they would have it in their watch list wouldn't they? I dont think I have misunderstood the policy.. Where does the policy say less than 10 is okay and more than 10 not okay (I am willing to learn if you could teach) ..  « ₪ M ÿ š † í c ₪ »  (T) 20:55, 16 June 2006 (UTC)

I didn't mean to imply that 10 was a magic limit. I put that in to show that I had contacted only a small number of people. But if I had contacted 100 (out of the tens of thousands of editors out there) it would have been no different- as long as I was targeting people I knew and worked with, andknew they would be interested. With all the bajillions of articles it is very easy for something to slip by someone when it is quite important to them - it has happened to me on votes, rfas, and the like on more than one occasion. For all that, I am still not aware of any policy that bars the conduct in which I engaged, and I fail to see such conduct banned in any of the materials you referred me to.

Nor, on a slightly different topic, do I have any clue as to how saying "such and such a person was killed at Muhammad's order" can be "original research" (your justification for the vote) when the source for the statement is a myriad of Islamic sources whose purpose was to extoll Muhammad's virtues. Briangotts (Talk) (Contrib) 21:03, 16 June 2006 (UTC)
 * Could you provide a single source that says Mohammed (pbuh) ordered someone to kill (assasinate) another? And one source that says so and so killed because prophet asked them to do so and not out of their own will? If you cannot its your own assumption and conclusion that makes it Original Research.

Image Tagging Image:Nabwi.jpg
Thanks for uploading Image:Nabwi.jpg. I notice the 'image' page currently doesn't specify who created the content, so the copyright status is unclear. If you have not created this media yourself then there needs to be an argument why we have the right to use the media on Wikipedia (see copyright tagging below). If you have not created the media yourself then it needs to be specified where it was found, i.e., in most cases link to the website where it was taken from, and the terms of use for content from that page.

If the media also doesn't have a copyright tag then one should be added. If you created/took the picture, audio, or video then the GFDL-self tag can be used to release it under the GFDL. If you believe the media meets the criteria at Fair use, use a tag such as or one of the other tags listed at Image copyright tags.See Image copyright tags for the full list of copyright tags that you can use.

If you have uploaded other media, consider checking that you have specified their source and copyright tagged them, too. You can find a list of 'image' pages you have edited by clicking on the "my contributions" link (it is located at the very top of any Wikipedia page when you are logged in), and then selecting "Image" from the dropdown box. Note that any unsourced and untagged images will be deleted one week after they have been uploaded, as described on criteria for speedy deletion. If you have any questions please ask them at the Media copyright questions page. Thank you. gren グレン 03:15, 19 June 2006 (UTC)

[[Image:Colombo Map.jpg|150px]]
I noticed that you contributed the above image which you made yourself. I don't know what program you used to make it but is it possible for you to contribute a SVG vector image of this map? There are numerous advantages with vector graphics for this sort of data, Vector graphics may give you an idea. One of the key advantages in this case is that the map can be enlarged to any size and still look good. It's also easier to edit for example to translate the image to other languages or to recolour or change the borders if this is ever necessary. If your program is unable to output SVG but is able to output vector graphics of any other kinds, e.g. EPF, PS, WMF, EMF etc then you're welcome to e-mail me the vector output and I should be able to convert it to SVG.

If your program is incapable of output vector graphics or you worked completely in raster, would it be possible for you to submit a higher resolution version of this map? Currently, the text is a bit blurry and it's not very suitable if we want to highlight a certain area. If you do, I strongly recommend you use PNG instead of JPG. PNG which is a loseless compression format is much better for this sort of content then JPG which is lossy. JPG is primarily designed for photos. You'd probably find the PNG is in fact smaller but even if it isn't it's still wise to avoid JPG for such content.

BTW, the specific reason I'm asking is because your image might be useful to illustrate where Colombo is for example in the ITN on the mainpage. Cheers Nil Einne 07:50, 12 November 2006 (UTC)

Hi thank you for your interest in the article. I dont think I have the original image that I worked on. I used Photoshop for my work, please go ahead and edit the image as required.

Wikipedia going to miss your contributions.Theres no doubt about that.

I cant help but to think that,we all (Sri Lankans)are fighting for a lost cause here. No matter what we say,any Evidence we give and how logical are we,all of it seems to end in deaf ears.And here is the finest example, . Sometimes i wonder,is wikipedia going on the wrong side ?? --Iwazaki 06:32, 28 November 2006 (UTC)

Hi Mystìc, I suppose this isn't the best time, but you should probably be aware of this. On another note, it would be a loss for WP if you left under these circumstances. I hope that you'll reconsider.  Tewfik Talk 04:39, 1 February 2007 (UTC)

The image or media was replaced with Image:NonFreeImageRemoved.svg, so your formatting of your userpage should be fine. Please find a free image or    media to replace it with, and or remove the image from your userspace. User:Gnome (Bot)-talk 21:54, 15 May 2007 (UTC)

Hello Mystìc, an automated process has found an image or media file tagged as nonfree media, such as fair use. The image (Image:Zahira Logo.jpg) was found at the following location: User:Mystìc/scratchpad2. This image or media will be removed per statement number 9 of our non-free content policy. The image or media will be replaced with Image:NonFreeImageRemoved.svg, so your formatting of your userpage should be fine. The image that was replaced will not be automatically deleted, but it could be deleted at a later date. Articles using the same image should not be affected by my edits. I ask you to please not re-add the image to your userpage and could consider finding a replacement image licensed under either the Creative Commons or GFDL license or released to the public domain. Please note that it is possible that the image on your page is included vie a template or usebox. In that case, please find a free image for the template or userbox. Thanks for your attention and cooperation. User:Gnome (Bot)-talk 08:33, 19 May 2007 (UTC)

Image:TalkArchive.jpg
Hi. When you uploaded Image:TalkArchive.jpg, you did not specify complete source and copyright information. Another user subsequently tagged it with GFDL-presumed and, for some time, it has existed on Wikipedia under the assumption that you created the image and you agreed to license it under the GFDL. This assumption, however well-meaning, is not legally sufficient and the tag is being phased out. Images using it are being deleted.

This image has been tagged for deletion and will be deleted in one week if adequate copyright information is not provided.

If you, personally, are the author of this content, meaning that you took the photograph yourself or you created the chart yourself (and it does not use any clipart that you did not create), please retag the image with a free image copyright tag that correctly describes your licensing intentions, usually GFDL-self or PD-self. Please also make sure if you have not already done so that you write a good description of what the image depicts, when you took the photo, and other important details. This will allow Wikipedia to continue using the image.

If you did not create the image or if it is derived from the copyrighted works of others, please keep in mind that most images on the internet are copyrighted and are not suitable for use on Wikipedia. Wikipedia respects the copyrights of others and does not use images unless we know that they have been freely licensed. Any creative work is automatically copyrighted, even if it lacks a copyright notice. Unless the copyright holder has specifically disclaimed their rights to the image and released it under the GFDL or another compatible license, we cannot use it. If you did not create the image, and cannot make the image compliant with Non-free content, simply do nothing and it will be deleted in a week. All other non-free images must follow these rules.

Please feel free to contact me on my talk page or leave a message at Media copyright questions with any questions you may have. Thank you. Aksibot 07:41, 3 June 2007 (UTC)
