Kumul vs. Hami
Please do not make major changes to the naming of articles without discussing it first. Kumul is the native name of the city and there is consensus for using this name. If you believe it should be changed, you are free to start a discussion at Talk:Kumul. r ʨ anaɢ talk/contribs 22:14, 7 August 2009 (UTC)

the official name is Hami City and why did remove the infobox i added?--Pub849sp (talk) 22:17, 7 August 2009 (UTC)


 * Again, the native name is Kumul. Likewise, the Wikipedia article about Urumqi is not titled "Wulumuqi", Kashgar is not "Kashi", etc.
 * Like I said, if you disagree, start a discussion at Talk:Kumul. r ʨ anaɢ talk/contribs 22:23, 7 August 2009 (UTC)
 * But why did you delete the infobox?--Pub849sp (talk) 22:24, 7 August 2009 (UTC)
 * What infobox? Please point out which article you're referring to. r ʨ anaɢ talk/contribs 22:25, 7 August 2009 (UTC)

You currently appear to be engaged in an edit war. Note that the three-revert rule prohibits making more than three reversions on a single page within a 24 hour period. Additionally, users who perform a large number of reversions in content disputes may be blocked for edit warring, even if they do not technically violate the three-revert rule. If you continue, you may be blocked from editing. Please do not repeatedly revert edits, but use the talk page to work towards wording and content that gains a consensus among editors. If necessary, pursue dispute resolution. r ʨ anaɢ talk/contribs 22:25, 7 August 2009 (UTC)
 * Why did you delete the infobox in Hami City?--Pub849sp (talk) 22:26, 7 August 2009 (UTC)
 * Here, I have now restored it. The deletion happened by accident while I was trying to undo your other changes. r ʨ anaɢ talk/contribs 22:27, 7 August 2009 (UTC)

What do you mean by native name?? Hami City is the native name, when I travelled there it was by far the most commonly used name by locals. Pub849sp (talk) 22:32, 7 August 2009 (UTC)
 * Well, in my experience all the Uyghurs I know call it Kumul (قۇمۇل), Uyghur publications use that name, and road signs tend to say 哈密 in Chinese and قۇمۇل in Uyghur. So I guess we'll have to agree to disagree.
 * But anyway, our personal experience doesn't matter. Like I said, if you want to change the name you can start a discussion at Talk:Kumul. This page is not the appropriate place to make a decision like that; you should start a discussion at the article's talk page so that more editors can discuss. r ʨ anaɢ talk/contribs 22:35, 7 August 2009 (UTC)


 * Yes, some Ughurs i met used the kumul, but the vast majority of locals used 'Hami City'.

e.g. Yumin County is called Yumin, more rarely Qaƣantokay, because Yumin was the name most commonly by people living there. thanks

Other pages
Now I see you're doing this same thing on a bunch of other pages, sinifying non-Chinese names. Again, please do not make massive changes like this without first making a suggestion at a talk page. If you want to make changes across many articles, your best bet is to leave a suggestion at Wikipedia talk:Naming conventions (Chinese) explaining your proposal, and then you can see what other editors have to say. r ʨ anaɢ</b> talk/contribs 02:34, 8 August 2009 (UTC)


 * Those places are where I have visited and those are most common names used by the locals of all ethnic groups.--Pub849sp (talk) 02:48, 8 August 2009 (UTC)


 * Also why did you delete my edits?--Pub849sp (talk) 02:56, 8 August 2009 (UTC)


 * Again, your personal impressions from your personal experiences do not count as reliable sources for this sort of thing. I have already given you ample opportunity to start a discussion in one of the appropriate venues and make your proposal. Please do that instead of edit warring. When you know that there are objections against your editing, it is inappropriate to continue editing in that way without engaging in discussion. <b class="Unicode">r ʨ anaɢ</b> talk/contribs 03:19, 8 August 2009 (UTC)


 * But i dont know why keeping on taking out my editing? Pub849sp (talk) 03:32, 8 August 2009 (UTC)

ANI
Because you are continuing to make controversial page moves and have not made any attempts to start a discussion at any of the pages I directed you to, I have had no choice but to report you to other administrators. The report is here and you are welcome to comment. <b class="Unicode">r ʨ anaɢ</b> talk/contribs 04:25, 8 August 2009 (UTC)


 * I did start a discussion on the talk page.Pub849sp (talk) 04:31, 8 August 2009 (UTC)


 * "Most of the local people in this county refer to it as Akesai. thanks" is not a discussion. Stop right now, or I'll block you indefinitely until you acknowledge the concerns.  I think people would like a reliable source for that statement and then we can discuss whether the local term or other terms are more in line with the WP:MOS. -- Ricky81682 (talk) 18:36, 8 August 2009 (UTC)
