AfD nomination of Black Saturday massacre
I have nominated Black Saturday massacre, an article that you created, for deletion. I do not think that this article satisfies Wikipedia's criteria for inclusion, and have explained why at Articles for deletion/Black Saturday massacre. Your opinions on the matter are welcome at that same discussion page; also, you are welcome to edit the article to address these concerns. Thank you for your time. NJGW (talk) 07:26, 4 January 2009 (UTC)

An article you created maybe deleted soon: Tools which can help you
The article you created, Black_Saturday_massacre maybe deleted from Wikipedia.

There is an ongoing debate about whether your article should be deleted here:
 * Articles for deletion/Black_Saturday_massacre.

The faster your respond, the better chance the article you created can be saved. This is because deletion debates only stay open for a few days, and the first comments are usually the most important. There are several tools and other editors who can help you keep the page from being deleted forever:
 * 1) You can list the page up for deletion on Article Rescue Squadron. If you need help listing your page, add a comment on the Article Rescue Squadron talk page.
 * 2) You can request a mentor to help explain to you all of the complex rules that editors use to get a page deleted, here: Adopt-a-User. But don't wait for a mentor to respond on the deletion page.
 * 3) When try to delete a page, veteran editors love to use a lot of rule acronyms. Don't let these acronyms intimidate you. Here is a list of your own acronyms you can use yourself: WP:Deletion debate acronyms which may support the page you created being kept. Acronyms in deletion debates are sometimes incorrectly used, or ignore rules or exceptions.
 * 4) You can merge the article into a larger or better established article on the same topic.

If your page is deleted, you still have many options available. Good luck! travb (talk) 09:39, 4 January 2009 (UTC)

Portal:Islam
Sorry that after a review I didn't feel I could pass the article you had nominated, Ali, as GA. But I do a bit of Featured Portal work and I noticed from the portal's peer review that you were working on Portal:Islam. Actually I still think it could use a good deal more work, formatting, standardization, some new subsections to be added, etc, before its ready to be nominated for featured consideration - but would you mind if I put some work into the portal and its subpages to help move it along towards eventual WP:FPOC consideration?

Imam Ali
Walekum,

Surely you are trying to help by your edits, but it seems you have reverted few edits which ere discussed on talk page by group of editors and were reached at conclusion by them(especially Sunni view).

I have reverted few of your edits which fall into above category, other edits remain as it is.

Few references included by you e.g. Sahih Muslim Book 031, Number 5955, reads : 'A'isha reported that Allah's Apostle (may peace be upon him) went out one norning wearing a striped cloak of the black camel's hair that there came Hasan b. 'Ali. He wrapped hitn under it, then came Husain and he wrapped him under it along with the other one (Hasan). Then came Fatima and he took her under it, then came 'Ali and he also took him under it and then said: Allah only desires to take away any uncleanliness from you, O people of the household, and purify you (thorough purifying) and it has nothing to do about its place of quotation i.e. Theirs was a simple life of hardship ..... I have pains in my chest..

You are most welcome on talkpage to talk about edits; preferably under new section.

Was'salam!

--Sayed Mohammad Faiz Haider Rizvi (talk) 12:09, 23 March 2009 (UTC)


 * Hi, I noticed that you were the primary editor pushing Ali towards GA quality the last time it was reviewed and I hope you'll participate with us as we continue that effort. As Faiz pointed out, we have made several improvements after lengthy talkpage discussions in order to achieve both accuracy and Neutrality. Your input in these discussions would be very welcome. Also, we are putting effort into "fixing" and formatting the references as that was a major concern in the last review. Our goal, like yours, is to produce a high quality article that will properly reflect the importance of Ali as a historical figure, and his immense influence as a religous figure. Thanks, Doc  Tropics  16:59, 24 March 2009 (UTC)


 * I commented primary references(actually they were removed by you out-rightly, for cross-reference of editors I put them back in commented form) regarding removal of references/hadiths as Doc pointed out and I have shown you above there are numerous cases in which references/hadiths are dead links or unrelevant to the place of quotation. When I pointed few such cases Doc took over this tedious job to review each and every reference/link and for start to remove dead ones. I have noticed a trend that people are used to putting any link for the sake of reference as it is seldom that they are checked, so before providing reference to each and every uncited section we are checking for validity of present references(a sort of cleanup).--Sayed Mohammad Faiz Haider Rizvi (talk) 06:22, 25 March 2009 (UTC)


 * Mail checked and replied.--Sayed Mohammad Faiz Haider Rizvi (talk) 06:30, 25 March 2009 (UTC)


 * When I reverted/undid your edits I did it selectively (as you may have noticed); there are few sections which seem to inclined and whole article needs to be checked for whether the text being written and reference being provided are coherent for start we are checking references as mentioned above. We need to be streamlined in operations as too many efforts from all can lead to mess, thats why when Doc is doing this review job we are abstaining from any major edits or revamp we are just having a look/watch to see wether any thing is not being missed by Doc. When we com to next stage then you may take up the job. --Sayed Mohammad Faiz Haider Rizvi (talk) 08:00, 25 March 2009 (UTC)

Ali: Article cleanup and revamp
Dear editor,

Few of us have concluded that this article needs severe cleanup and revamp. Intial steps of this have been started and as of now are underway one task.
 * We'll take one task at time, have a review after its complition and move to another,
 * One or two members will do the actual task while others can do periodic review and correction,
 * Group of editors can take a task and devide it section wise between themselves
 * During this process any major revamp or re-writing of article will be avoided.

You are invited for this activity.

Talk:Ali

--Sayed Mohammad Faiz Haider Rizvi (talk) 09:48, 25 March 2009 (UTC)


 * Thanks Seyyed for notifying me about your efforts regarding article revamp. I noticed that you not only removed references which were dead/inconsistent but you also removed the text from various locations; at start of this activity that we will remove such references and tag resultant unreferenced text as unreferenced tag(as done by me and Doc). I think we should follow that understanding, in next phase we can start with cleaning of article(for which probably we'll have a short discusion).


 * Thanx again for your contributions.

Re Moving Astronomy in medieval Islam
Salam Alaykum,

Can you please move Astronomy in medieval Islam to Astronomy in Islam, because medieval is euro-centric approach to describe history. In addition this article includes issues which has happened in modern era. Unfortunately there is an entry with that name, and I can't move it by myself.-- Seyyed(t-c) 07:38, 25 March 2009 (UTC)


 * salam Seyyed. I can do it but the intro should reflect that. You probably need to place this in the last part of the lead:

"In the 20th and 21st centuries, Muslim astronomers have been making advances in moon sighting, while Muslim astronauts and rocket scientists have been involved in research on astronautics and space exploration."


 * You may also need to leave a note at the talk page. Which article with the same name? --  FayssalF   - Wiki me up® 14:44, 25 March 2009 (UTC)

GA Sweeps invitation
Hello, I hope you are doing well. I am sending you this message since you are a member of the GA WikiProject. I would like to invite you to consider helping with the GA sweeps process. Sweeps helps to ensure that the oldest GAs still meet the criteria, and improve the quality of GAs overall. Unfortunately, last month only two articles were reviewed. This is definitely a low point after our peak at the beginning of the process when 163 articles were reviewed in September 2007. After nearly two years, the running total has just passed the 50% mark. In order to expediate the reviewing, several changes have been made to the process. A new worklist has been created, detailing which articles are left to review. All exempt and previously reviewed articles have already been removed from the list. Instead of reviewing by topic, you can consider picking and choosing whichever articles interest you.

We are always looking for new members to assist with the remaining articles, so if you are interested or know of anybody that can assist, please visit the GA sweeps page. In addition, for every member that reviews 100 articles or has a significant impact on the process, s/he will get an award when they reach that threshold. If only 14 editors achieve this feat starting now, we would be done with Sweeps! Of course, having more people reviewing less articles would be better for all involved, so please consider asking others to help out. Feel free to stop by and only review a few articles, something's better than nothing! Take a look at the list, and see what articles interest you. Let's work to complete Sweeps so that efforts can be fully focused on the backlog at GAN. If you have any questions about the process, reviewing, or need help with a particular article, please contact me or OhanaUnited and we'll be happy to help. --Happy editing!

Islamicization of Persia
Salam Seyyed,

I looked at the article of Islamicization of Persia today. You had changed the name from "cultural impacts of the conquest of Persia". I think that the new name is better, but does not describe the article as currently written. Either the article needs surgery or we should change the name back, or we should carefully describe "Islamicization" in the beginning in a manner which is consistent with the article. I wrote about this on the discussion page of the article. What do you think? David s graff (talk) 20:43, 29 May 2009 (UTC)

Recent edits on Safiyya bint Huyayy
Recently few sections of article have been removed. These sections were based on Martin Lings' work, reason cited was that Lings is not a historian and was just a writer.

But same article quotes Wafa Sultan who is a psychatriat.

The difference seems to be is that Lings quotation were in support of Muslim view while Wafa's are against.

I think a discussion is needed over this issue.

AfD nomination of Definition of Shi'a fundamentalism
An editor has nominated one or more articles which you have created or worked on, for deletion. The nominated article is Definition of Shi'a fundamentalism. We appreciate your contributions, but the nominator doesn't believe that the article satisfies Wikipedia's criteria for inclusion and has explained why in his/her nomination (see also Notability and "What Wikipedia is not").

Your opinions on whether the article meets inclusion criteria and what should be done with the article are welcome; please participate in the discussion(s) by adding your comments to Articles for deletion/Definition of Shi'a fundamentalism. Please be sure to sign your comments with four tildes ( ~ ).

You may also edit the article during the discussion to improve it but should not remove the articles for deletion template from the top of the article; such removal will not end the deletion debate.

Please note: This is an automatic notification by a bot. I have nothing to do with this article or the deletion nomination, and can't do anything about it. --Erwin85Bot (talk) 01:24, 4 September 2009 (UTC)

muslim conquest of persia
asalamualikum, thanks for responding to the third opinion. Apparently the dispute seems to have been resolved. It was regarding the reliability of some sources regarding the muslim's persecution of zoroastrians in persia after it came under muslim rule. a paragraph has been compiled to be added into the article describing the persecution history in a more balanced way. We will surely contact u in case we again end up with the deadlock. You can see tht paragraph in the last post on Talk:Muslim conquest of Persia.

 * And the dispute has apparently been started again in the muslim conquest of persia, this time its about the rashidun caliphate, whether they were persecuted during thir time or it all started later.
 * so far this is the only available source that speaks about the treatment of zoroastrians under Prophet (PBUH) and the rashidun caliphs. and there is no mention of such persecution here. See if u can help.

Template:Infobox Muslim scholars
Hi, while I was editing Shāh Ni'matullāh-i Walī I noticed what I think is an odd effect of Template:Infobox Muslim scholars, which you created: having any text in the "Maddhab" line causes a couple of lines' worth of blank space to appear at the top of the article (compare the previous version of the article). If I put as much as a period in the Maddhab field, blank space appears at the top, and if I delete the period it goes away. Any suggestions why this would be? There are plenty of other articles that transclude your template and include Maddhab text, and as far as I can tell Shāh Ni'matullāh-i Walī is the only one where it causes blank space at the top.

April 2010 GAN backlog elimination drive

GAN
Ok thank you for your help! UBER ( talk ) 16:35, 26 March 2010 (UTC)


 * Hey, I made some comments at the Liberalism GAN. Here they are again:


 * I've added a sentence about opposition to liberalism in the lead and cut out some extraneous material from History per your suggestions. As for Philosophy: it already contains the information for your proposed subsections, so I've retitled them to reflect your request. For example, Relation to other ideologies included criticism from feminism, conservatism, Christian Democracy, etc. I've retitled that section to Criticism and support to better reflect its content. I could add a little bit more about socialist critiques against liberalism though. How do you propose to integrate the content on Fukuyama? I don't think it's a particularly big issue because that quotation is meant to highlight the importance of liberalism in modern politics, not to start a tit-for-tat over how Fukuyama's views have changed over the years. UBER  ( talk ) 21:00, 26 March 2010 (UTC)


 * As for the History of liberalism, I've mentioned a few more details about industrialization and the Industrial Revolution, as well as their relationship to liberalism. Let me know what else you think I should add. Thank you for your help again! UBER  ( talk ) 21:33, 26 March 2010 (UTC)


 * I have now removed the Fukuyama comment entirely in both Liberalism and History of liberalism. UBER  ( talk ) 17:58, 27 March 2010 (UTC)


 * Hey, I've responded to your latest concerns at the GAN. UBER  ( talk ) 19:32, 31 March 2010 (UTC)
 * For the Liberalism GAN, when you said "good idea"...does that mean you want that information under the Philosophy section, or it's fine where it is? UBER  ( talk ) 05:37, 1 April 2010 (UTC)
 * I've placed that information under Philosophy now. Is there anything else I need to do? UBER  ( talk ) 01:52, 2 April 2010 (UTC)
 * Done. UBER  ( talk ) 04:22, 2 April 2010 (UTC)
 * Also, right now I'm trying to keep the focus on Liberalism. I want to get that done first and then move on to History of liberalism. UBER  ( talk ) 04:23, 2 April 2010 (UTC)
 * Where the suggestions are related, I'm taking notes and making the necessary changes. What other improvements do you think I need to make for Liberalism? I've summarized the parts you wanted for History. UBER  ( talk ) 04:59, 2 April 2010 (UTC)
 * Hey, it's been a week now since you wrote anything in the GAN for Liberalism. Do you think there's anything else I need to do? Let me know quickly because I want to move on to other projects. The other two editors who participated in the review seem to be satisfied and I want to close the GAN relatively soon. Thanks. UBER  ( talk ) 00:04, 10 April 2010 (UTC)
 * Hello, the claims you want cited are already cited in various other places and they are also painfully obvious or famous, as I wrote in my summary when I reverted you. Please just go ahead and fail both Liberalism and History of liberalism. I can't waste any more of my time on such a futile adventure. It seems like you are just raising pointless objections to drag out the process, and I'm getting rather sick and tired of it all. Thank you for your help anyway. UBER  ( talk ) 16:44, 16 April 2010 (UTC)
 * You're right that the claim about most nations emerging out of the Depression with deficit spending from states would require a source, although I could just as easily remove the claim and solve that problem immediately. However, you also added citation tags to things about the US becoming a republic and the Consulate under Napoleon replacing the Directory. Those do not have to be cited. They are plainly obvious to any student of world history.


 * You don't have to ask another reviewer. You already did that and the reviewer was satisfied. A second reviewer came along and I took care of that person's concerns as well. What you're doing is giving me a run-around with silly objections, and if that's what you're going to do, I'd rather you just fail the entire nomination. I don't want to waste your time, but I especially don't want to waste mine. UBER  ( talk ) 16:45, 17 April 2010 (UTC)

I went ahead and punched in a "fail" on the Liberalism GAN as there hasn't been any additional activity whatsoever, even after the 2nd opinion request. Following up on the History of liberalism article, it looks like the 2nd opinion (Jezhotwells) doesn't have much else to add. Can you please see whether or not that article passes (since I do see some recent activity on that one)? Thank you, –MuZemike 18:49, 30 April 2010 (UTC)
 * I recommend a fail now as there have been no substantive edits since 18 April. –– Jezhotwells (talk) 13:45, 3 May 2010 (UTC)

Hi, I think both of them have been failed, but due to disagreement between me and the nominator, I asked for another reviewer. Seyyed(t-c) 02:30, 5 May 2010 (UTC)

Reviewer granted
Hello. Your account has been granted the "reviewer" userright, allowing you to to review other users' edits on certain flagged pages. Pending changes, also known as flagged protection, will be commencing a a two-month trial at approximately 23:00, 2010 June 15 (UTC).

Reviewers can review edits made by users who are not autoconfirmed to articles placed under flagged protection. Flagged protection is applied to only a small number of articles, similarly to how semi-protection is applied but in a more controlled way for the trial.

When reviewing, edits should be accepted if they are not obvious vandalism or BLP violations, and not clearly problematic in light of the reason given for protection (see Reviewing process). More detailed documentation and guidelines can be found here.

If you do not want this userright, you may ask any administrator to remove it for you at any time. The Rambling Man (talk) 17:49, 15 June 2010 (UTC)

Adopt-a-user reminder
Hello, I have completed a general cleanup of the adopter information page for the adopt-a-user project, located here. During my cleanup, I have removed several inactive and retired users. In order to provide interested adoptees with an easy location to find adopters, it is essential that the page be up-to-date with the latest information possible. Thus:


 * If you are no longer interested in being an adopter, please remove yourself from the list.
 * If you are still interested, please check the list to see if any information needs to be updated or added - especially your availability. Thank you.


 * You are receiving this message because you are listed as an adopter here.

Translation
Hi, I do not know where to request this so I am putting it here. I was wondering if you could help or seek help on Persian wiki project to translate these pages from English to Persian wiki: http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/International_rankings_of_Iran http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/List_of_statistically_superlative_countries http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/List_of_statistically_superlative_objects_by_country

An update from adopt a user
Hi there ! You may be wondering, what have I done to sound the alarm this time? Nothing. I'm messaging you in regards to the adopt-a-user program, which currently has a backlog of users wishing to be adopted. This doesn't make much sense, as we have a considerable list of users offer adoption, so there shouldn't be any backlog. I've begun to eliminate this backlog myself through a matching program, but I need your help to make it work. Of course, adoptees and adopters don't have to go through there, but I believe it helps eliminate the backlog because someone is actively matching pairs.

On the list of adopters, I have modified the middle column to say "Interests." It's easier working with other users that have similar interests, so if it's not too much to ask, could you add your interests in the middle column? For example, if I was interested in hurricanes, computers, business, and ... reptiles? I would place those in the middle column. Counter-vandalism and the like can also be included (maintenance should be used as the general term). The more interests, the better, since adoptees can learn more about you and choose the one they feel most comfortable working with. The information about when you're most active and other stuff can go into the "Notes" section to the right.

Finally, I've gone around and asked adoptees (and will in the future) to fill in a short survey so adopters can take the initiative and contact users they feel comfortable working with. We all know that most adoptees just place the adopt me template on their user page and leave it - so it's up to us to approach them and offer adoption. So, please take a look at the survey, adopt those that fit your interests, and maybe watchlist it so you can see the interests of adoptees and adopt one that fits your interests in the future.

Once again, thank you for participating in the adopt-a-user program! If you wish to respond to this post, please message me on my talk page.

Re:Akbar
Thanks for the comments. Unfortunately, I am on holiday now with limited internet access and do not have the time or resources to work on the changes you suggested. I would like to request you to extend the hold period by a fortnight in order to enable me to make the necessary changes. Regards, SBC-YPR (talk) 13:18, 27 December 2010 (UTC)

Wikipedia Ambassador Program is looking for new Online Ambassadors
Hi Sa.vakilian! I noticed your activity as a Good Article reviewer, and wanted to let you know about the Wikipedia Ambassador Program, and specifically the role of Online Ambassador. We're looking for friendly Wikipedians who are good at reviewing articles and giving feedback to serve as mentors for students who are assigned to write for Wikipedia in their classes.

If you're interested, I encourage you to take a look at the Online Ambassador guidelines; the "mentorship process" describes roughly what will be expected of mentors in the coming term. If that's something you want to do, please apply!

You can find instructions for applying at WP:ONLINE. The main things we're looking for in Online Ambassadors are friendliness, regular activity (since mentorship is a commitment that spans several months), and the ability to give detailed, substantive feedback on articles (both short new articles, and longer, more mature ones).

I hope to hear from you soon.--Sage Ross - Online Facilitator, Wikimedia Foundation (talk) 22:26, 27 December 2010 (UTC)
