Please do not add inappropriate external links to Wikipedia. Wikipedia is not a collection of links, nor should it be used for advertising or promotion. Inappropriate links include (but are not limited to) links to personal web sites, links to web sites with which you are affiliated, and links that attract visitors to a web site or promote a product. See the external links guideline and spam guideline for further explanations. Since Wikipedia uses the nofollow attribute value, its external links are disregarded by some search engines, including Google. If you feel the link should be added to the article, please discuss it on the article's talk page rather than re-adding it. Wuhwuzdat (talk) 00:46, 1 March 2009 (UTC)

Your recent edits
Hi there. In case you didn't know, when you add content to talk pages and Wikipedia pages that have open discussion, you should sign your posts by typing four tildes ( &#126;&#126;&#126;&#126; ) at the end of your comment. If you can't type the tilde character, you should click on the signature button located above the edit window. This will automatically insert a signature with your name and the time you posted the comment. This information is useful because other editors will be able to tell who said what, and when. Thank you! --SineBot (talk) 13:13, 1 March 2009 (UTC)

Please do not delete content or templates from pages on Wikipedia without giving a valid reason for the removal in the edit summary. Your content removal does not appear constructive, and has been reverted. Please make use of the sandbox if you'd like to experiment with test edits. Wuhwuzdat (talk) 13:45, 1 March 2009 (UTC)

This is your last warning. You will be blocked from editing the next time you vandalize a page, as you did with this edit to Sanaz Shirazi.  Doulos Christos   ♥ talk   13:56, 1 March 2009 (UTC)

Sockpuppetry case
You have been accused of sockpuppetry. Please refer to Sockpuppet investigations/Jefcostello for evidence. Please make sure you make yourself familiar with notes for the suspect before editing the evidence page. Wuhwuzdat (talk) 14:53, 1 March 2009 (UTC)

Your recent edits could give Wikipedia contributors the impression that you may consider legal or other "off-wiki" action against them, or against Wikipedia itself. Please note that this is strictly prohibited under Wikipedia's policies on legal threats and civility. Users who make such threats may be blocked. If you have a dispute with the content of any page on Wikipedia, please follow the proper channels for dispute resolution.

Here
This is the old version of the page you are looking for; it has been edited because it didn't meet Wikipedia's standards about WP:verifiability and sources, etc. Before editing the page, please review Wikipedia's guidelines, what Wikipedia is not, and the editing tutorial. If you continue to edit war at this article you risk being blocked. r ʨ anaɢ talk/contribs 16:14, 1 March 2009 (UTC)


 * To do that, just edit the article and rewrite it to be about the brand, rather than Sanaz Shirazi herself; then use the "move" tab at the top to change its name to Sanaz Shirazi Collection or whatever. But before you start, I strongly recommend that you familiarize yourself with all the links I gave above, so you can learn how to write the article properly; if you don't, there is a chance it could get deleted.  Also, please be open to input and edits from other people, as they are only trying to help.
 * If you want, instead of editing the article directly you can prepare a draft in your user space by clicking User:Qchristina/Sanaz Shirazi Collection. Once you're done preparing a draft there, you can copy it over to the actual article. r ʨ anaɢ talk/contribs 16:58, 1 March 2009 (UTC)


 * No, they said you can't vandalize a page (by blanking the content or adding inappropriate information, for example). If you edit constructively, you won't get blocked.  The simple rule of thumb is to add nothing that isn't already attested in another source (and for every piece of information you add to the page, add a footnote referencing the source; if you don't know how to do that, ask me and I'll show you), and only use sources that meet the Reliable Sources guideline.  Again, read the links I gave above to learn more about that stuff. r ʨ anaɢ talk/contribs 17:27, 1 March 2009 (UTC)
 * Also, by the way, when you send messages to people on Wikipedia, please sign them by typing  at the end. r ʨ anaɢ talk/contribs 17:28, 1 March 2009 (UTC)


 * Just put the footnote in between the tags, directly after the statement in the article.  Then, at the bottom of the article, the footnote will show up wherever you have  .  For example, this :

Bla bla bla. This is a fact.

Referencing
Please properly format the references in your footnotes&mdash;instead of just giving the URL, give all the information available (title, author, date, work/publisher, access date, etc.). This is important for helping people verify which ones are reliable sources, and for tracking down the information if the original URL goes dead.

The easiest way to add this information is to use citation templates. For example:""

Thank you, r ʨ anaɢ talk/contribs 19:35, 1 March 2009 (UTC)


 * If you can provide a source verifying that she no longer lives in Norway.
 * As you edit, please use edit summaries (in the box below the edit window) for each edit you make; that helps the people watching the article keep track of what changes you are making, and why. Every time you add or remove information, you should give an edit summary saying why. r ʨ anaɢ talk/contribs 19:56, 1 March 2009 (UTC)

Could you please be more specific about the "arguments" you've had with these journalists, and why you don't want them in the article? In general, it's not acceptable to "wipe out" all mention of someone for no reason, and it's not good to remove valid sources just because you don't like who wrote them. But it would help if you could explain the situation to me.

Also, judging by your edits, I assume you work for, or are somehow affiliated with, the Sanaz Shirazi Collection? If so, I suggest you read up on our guidelines about conflict of interest to make sure you don't break any rules. Thanks, r ʨ anaɢ talk/contribs 22:25, 1 March 2009 (UTC)


 * Again, please fill out the references properly when you edit, rather than just giving bare URLs. And remember to use edit summaries. r ʨ anaɢ talk/contribs 22:34, 1 March 2009 (UTC)

(outdent) You can only add youtube links in the External Links section. Please only add ones that are relevant.

Also, as I said before, make sure you add the appropriate information for the footnotes you are putting in. bare URLs like this are useless, as they give us no way to evaluate whether or not the source is any good. If you keep adding bare URLs without filling out the information in the footnotes, your edits might be removed. <b class="Unicode">r ʨ anaɢ</b> talk/contribs 23:05, 1 March 2009 (UTC)


 * (one quick comment from a passing by editor) There is another problem with putting only the URL. Websites sometimes disappear or get they moved or they move their pages to new names, and all you have left is a broken link. If you put also relevant data like title, author, data, publisher, etc, then, when the links breaks, someone can find again the same information on a different website and link there instead. --Enric Naval (talk) 04:55, 2 March 2009 (UTC)

Welcome to Wikipedia. Although everyone is welcome to contribute constructively to the encyclopedia, your addition of one or more external links to the page Sanaz Shirazi has been reverted.

Your edit here was reverted by an automated bot that attempts to remove unwanted links and spam from Wikipedia. The external link you added or changed is on my list of links to remove and probably shouldn't be included in Wikipedia. The external links I reverted were matching the following regex rule(s): \byoutube\.com (links: http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=xqyhk-lnpam, http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=zxgpeeqirhi, http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=q18mb9ahhh8, http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=7xhlrrlryca, http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=hau9qucctcw, http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=rqo2kz6fhrm, http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=ylnzv6acy_c). If the external link you inserted or changed was to a media file (e.g. a sound or video file) on an external server, then note that linking to such files may be subject to Wikipedia's copyright policy and therefore probably should not be linked to. Please consider using our upload facility to upload a suitable media file. Video links are also strongly deprecated by our guidelines for external links, partly because they're useless to people with slow internet connections.

If you were trying to insert an external link that does comply with our policies and guidelines, then please accept my creator's apologies and feel free to undo the bot's revert. However, if the link does not comply with our policies and guidelines, but your edit included other changes to the article, feel free to make those changes again without re-adding the link. Please read Wikipedia's external links guideline for more information, and consult my list of frequently-reverted sites. For more information about me, see my FAQ page.
