Speedy deletion nomination of Homafaran allegiance


A tag has been placed on Homafaran allegiance requesting that it be speedily deleted from Wikipedia.

February 2016
Your recent editing history at Dawning of the new age shows that you are currently engaged in an edit war. To resolve the content dispute, please do not revert or change the edits of others when you are reverted. Instead of reverting, please use the article's talk page to work toward making a version that represents consensus among editors. The best practice at this stage is to discuss, not edit-war. See BRD for how this is done. If discussions reach an impasse, you can then post a request for help at a relevant noticeboard or seek dispute resolution. In some cases, you may wish to request temporary page protection.

Being involved in an edit war can result in your being blocked from editing&mdash;especially if you violate the three-revert rule, which states that an editor must not perform more than three reverts on a single page within a 24-hour period. Undoing another editor's work—whether in whole or in part, whether involving the same or different material each time—counts as a revert. Also keep in mind that while violating the three-revert rule often leads to a block, you can still be blocked for edit warring&mdash;even if you don't violate the three-revert rule&mdash;should your behavior indicate that you intend to continue reverting repeatedly.

Hello SaffV: The copy edit you requested from the Guild of Copy Editors of the article Guadeloupe conference has been completed. I have noted that one of the article's statements requires a citation. I scanned the citation provided and I don't feel that it supports the sentence as it stands - especially since you use the word "historians" implying more than one has made the claim.

Your contributed article, United States eavesdropping


Hello, I noticed that you recently created a new page, United States eavesdropping. First, thank you for your contribution; Wikipedia relies solely on the efforts of volunteers such as you. Unfortunately, the page you created covers a topic on which we already have a page – Global surveillance disclosures (2013–present). Because of the duplication, your article has been tagged for speedy deletion. Please note that this is not a comment on you personally and we hope you will continue helping to improve Wikipedia. If the topic of the article you created is one that interests you, then perhaps you would like to help out at Global surveillance disclosures (2013–present) – you might like to discuss new information at the article's talk page.

If you think the article you created should remain separate, you may contest the nomination by visiting the page and clicking the button labelled "Contest this speedy deletion". This will give you the opportunity to explain why you believe the page should not be deleted. However, be aware that once a page is tagged for speedy deletion, it may be removed without delay. Please do not remove the speedy deletion tag from the page yourself, but do not hesitate to add information in line with Wikipedia's policies and guidelines. If the page is deleted, and you wish to retrieve the deleted material for future reference or improvement, then please contact the deleting administrator, or if you have already done so, you can place a request here. Additionally if you would like to have someone review articles you create before they go live so they are not nominated for deletion shortly after you post them, allow me to suggest the article creation process and using our search feature to find related information we already have in the encyclopedia. Try not to be discouraged. Wikipedia looks forward to your future contributions. FreeatlastChitchat (talk) 07:34, 12 March 2016 (UTC)

Iran and Red and Black Colonization
Hello Saff V.: The copy edit you requested from the Guild of Copy Editors of the article Iran and Red and Black Colonization has been completed. I did my best to try to decipher some sections of the article so please read it carefully to make sure I have not made mistakes. Since some of the references were in Arabic, which I do not understand, I could not check them to be sure what I thought the article intended was correct. One thing I noticed was that the Wikipedia article on Ettela'at says the article was published on January 6th. So the correct date needs to be verified and one or other article corrected.

Please let me know if you have any questions or concerns. Kind regards, Twofingered Typist (talk) 22:34, 20 March 2016 (UTC)

Editor of the Week
Editor Happy Squirrel submitted the following nomination for Editor of the Week:

I nominate Editor Saff V. to be Editor of the Week for his tireless work on topics related to Islam. Saff V. is a prolific content creator with 13 DYKs since he started in June 2015. More than 3/4 of their roughly 5000 edits are to article space, but they have nonetheless also contributed to a wide variety of namespaces. However, what has always struck me the most about Saff V. is their civility and willingness to learn. I had the privilege of reviewing one of their first creations at AfC and our interractions remain some of the best I have had on Wikipedia. They have also edited civilly and within policy in an area that is often very controversial. We are all lucky to have someone with the talent and enthusiasm of Saff V. in our midst.

Editor of the Week seeking nominations (and a new facilitator)
The Editor of the Week initiative has been recognizing editors since 2013 for their hard work and dedication. Editing Wikipedia can be disheartening and tedious at times; the weekly Editor of the Week award lets its recipients know that their positive behaviour and collaborative spirit is appreciated. The response from the honorees has been enthusiastic and thankful.

The list of nominees is running short, and so new nominations are needed for consideration. Have you come across someone in your editing circle who deserves a pat on the back for improving article prose regularly, making it easier to understand? Or perhaps someone has stepped in to mediate a contentious dispute, and did an excellent job. Do you know someone who hasn't received many accolades and is deserving of greater renown? Is there an editor who does lots of little tasks well, such as cleaning up citations?

Please help us thank editors who display sustained patterns of excellence, working tirelessly in the background out of the spotlight, by submitting your nomination for Editor of the Week today!

In addition, the WikiProject is seeking a new facilitator/coordinator to handle the logistics of the award. Please contact if you are interested in helping with the logistics of running the award in any capacity. Remove your name from here to unsubscribe from further EotW-related messages.

Pending changes reviewer granted
Hello. Your account has been granted the "pending changes reviewer" userright, allowing you to review other users' edits on pages protected by pending changes. The list of articles awaiting review is located at Special:PendingChanges, while the list of articles that have pending changes protection turned on is located at Special:StablePages.

Being granted reviewer rights neither grants you status nor changes how you can edit articles. If you do not want this user right, you may ask any administrator to remove it for you at any time.

Only warning and sanction
If you edit war again on People's Mujahedin of Iran, no matter what the reason is, you will be blocked from editing, immediately and without further notice. Also, you are not to revert that article, at all, for at least one week. Next time, please heed the warnings or the sanctions are going to be much more heavy-handed. El_C 18:37, 1 September 2019 (UTC)
 * It is true that I said proposed text by Stefka was suitable but I stressed that other users' opinion was needed. Without waiting for other opinions, Stefka edited the article. My opinion was never changed and my revert was not the Edit war. Of course, I try to be more clear. When I see that the user did not correctly pay attention to my comment and edited the article based on what he guessed, was not it allowed to revert?Saff V. (talk) 04:50, 3 September 2019 (UTC)
 * Not when I ask for the edit war to cease, no. El_C 07:39, 3 September 2019 (UTC)
 * Yes you are right, you wared us to prevent Edit war, but It didn't seem to me reverting to longstanding Version when users did not get my mean, can be Edit war. I reverted it to that version up to consequence would be gained. As I am trying to improve that article without disruptive contact, I have to say that edit was not done by the aim of Edit war, Anyway I apologize.Saff V. (talk) 13:16, 4 September 2019 (UTC)

New Page Review newsletter September-October 2019
Hello ,

Instead of reaching a magic 300 as it once did last year, the backlog approaching 6,000 is still far too high. An effort is also needed to ensure that older unsuitable older pages at the back of the queue do not get automatically indexed for Google.
 * Backlog

A proposal is taking place here to confirm a nominated user as Coordinator of NPR.
 * Coordinator

Why I Hate Speedy Deleters, a 2008 essay by long since retired, is still as valid today. Those of us who patrol large numbers of new pages can be forgiven for  making  the occasional  mistake while  others can learn from  their 'beginner' errors. Worth reading.
 * This month's refresher course

Do bear in mind that articles in the feed showing the trash can icon (you will need to have 'Nominated for deletion' enabled for this in your filters) may have been tagged by inexperienced or non NPR rights holders using Twinkle. They require your further verification.
 * Deletion tags

Please be sure to look for the tell-tale signs of undisclosed paid editing. Contact the creator if appropriate, and submit the issue to WP:COIN if necessary. WMF policy requires paid editors to connect to their adverts.
 * Paid editing


 * Subject-specific notability guidelines' (SNG). Alternatives to deletion
 * Reviewers are requested to familiarise themselves once more with notability guidelines for organisations and companies.
 * Blank-and-Redirect is a solution anchored in policy. Please consider this alternative before PRODing or CSD. Note however, that users will often revert or usurp redirects to re-create deleted articles. Do regularly patrol the redirects in the feed.

Regular reviewers will appreciate the most recent  enhancements to  the New Pages Feed and  features in the Curation  tool, and there are still more to  come. Due to the wealth  of information  now displayed by  ORES, reviewers are strongly  encouraged to  use the system now rather than Twinkle; it  will  also  correctly  populate the logs.
 * Not English
 * A common issue: Pages not in English or poor, unattributed machine translations should not reside in main space even if they are stubs. Please ensure you are familiar with WP:NPPNE. Check in Google for the language and content, and if they do have potential, tag as required, then move to draft. Modify the text of the template as appropriate before sending it.
 * Tools

Stub sorting, by SD0001: A new script is available for adding/removing stub tags. See User:SD0001/StubSorter.js, It features a simple HotCat-style dynamic search field. Many of the reviewers who are using it are finding it an improvement upon other available tools.

Assessment: The script at User:Evad37/rater makes the addition of Wikiproject templates extremely easy. New page creators rarely do this. Reviewers are not obliged to make these edits but they only take a few seconds. They can use the Curation message system to let the creator know what they have done.

is now patrolling certain categories of uncontroversial redirects. Curious? Check out its patrol log.

Please explain to me how this edit isn't a violation of WP:NOR and WP:V. Vanamonde (Talk) 14:36, 17 September 2019 (UTC)
 * before press publish change button, I forgot to check to be sure that this source is there. I thought the source to be there because it might be the Chelcheragh operation had been referred to it. Of course, (before I added it to lead), Aftab operation had been also used on the body of the article, which had the source. Excuse me anyway, I have to be more careful.Saff V. (talk) 04:55, 18 September 2019 (UTC)
 * You do realise the first of those sources is an opinion piece, and the second is a testimonial? Meaning that neither of them are reliable for anything other than the author's opinion? Vanamonde (Talk) 14:33, 18 September 2019 (UTC)
 * if I were aware about their reliability, I never took them to RSN.I really didn’t know they are not reliable.Saff V. (talk) 18:37, 18 September 2019 (UTC)
 * Well, keep it in mind. A critical part of what makes a source reliable is whether there is some sort of editorial oversight independent of the author. Most news sources have editors; most academic papers have peer review; books from good publishers have the publisher's editorial staff. Opinion pieces don't have that. They are reliable for the authors views, but only occasionally reliable for factual information, and that only when the authors themselves are notable/reliable commentators.

Speedy deletion declined: Timeline of computing 2020–29
Hello Saff V.. I am just letting you know that I declined the speedy deletion of Timeline of computing 2020–29, a page you tagged for speedy deletion, because of the following concern: I can't imagine how the context could be any clearer, and similar timelines are linked at the bottom of the page Thank you.

Autopatrolled granted
Hi Saff V., I just wanted to let you know that I have [//en.wikipedia.org/w/index.php?title=Special%3ALog&type=rights&page=User%3ASaff_V. added] the "autopatrolled" permission to your account, as you have created numerous, valid articles. This feature will have no effect on your editing, and is simply intended to reduce the workload on new page patrollers. For more information on the autopatrolled right, see Autopatrolled.

Warning
Saff V., In this and this edit, you removed a reliable source and well-sourced statements from the Ruhollah Khomeini article. Please stop or you'll be reported. Stefka Bulgaria (talk) 19:25, 24 October 2019 (UTC)
 * - Pray explain to me about how Amir Taheri's or Marvin Yakos' self-published work is a RS. I am inches away from dragging you to AE for a TBan.  &#x222F; WBG converse 12:52, 26 October 2019 (UTC)

When Saff V. pointed out that the Xulon publication was self-published (which I didn't know when I included the source in the article), then I removed the source. As for the Adler & Adler publication, as far as I know, that's not a self-published source. Both sources were used to support the following statement:

In addition to those two sources, I also included the following sources to support that statement (and, as far as I can see, they are not self-published):


 * "Under Khomeini, child marriage was allowed once more, with the age of marriage being reduced from 18 to nine for girls (revised, after protests, to 13) and 15 for boys. New laws encourage polygamy and prevented women from leaving abusive husbands. The husband’s right of unilateral divorce was reinstated. New policies encouraged temporary marriage as ‘morally sanctioned substitute for Western dating’, with trial ‘sigheh’ marriages recommended for high-school students, and sex workers being invited to enter short-term marriage contracts with returning war veterans."I.B. Tauris


 * "Khomeini called marriage to a girl before her first menstrual period “a diving blessing,” and he advised the faithful: “Do your best to ensure that your daughters do not see their first blood in your house.” This practice continues to this day, despite the severe injuries girls often incur from early intercourse and childbirth.

New Page Review newsletter November 2019
Hello ,

This newsletter comes a little earlier than usual because the backlog is rising again and the holidays are coming very soon. There are now holders of the New Page Reviewer flag! Most of you requested the user right to be able to do something about the huge backlog but it's still roughly less than 10% doing 90% of the work. Now it's time for action. Exactly one year ago there were 'only' 3,650 unreviewed articles, now we will soon be approaching 7,000 despite the growing number of requests for the NPR user right. If each reviewer soon does only 2 reviews a day over five days, the backlog will be down to zero and the daily input can then be processed by every reviewer doing only 1 review every 2 days - that's only a few minutes work on the bus on the way to the office or to class! Let's get this over and done with in time to relax for the holidays. Want to join? Consider adding the NPP Pledge userbox. Our next newsletter will announce the winners of some really cool awards. Admin has been officially invested as NPP/NPR coordinator by a unanimous consensus of the community. This is a complex role and he will need all the help he can get from other experienced reviewers. Paid editing is still causing headaches for even our most experienced reviewers: This official Wikipedia article will be an eye-opener to anyone who joined Wikipedia or obtained the NPR right since 2015. See The Hallmarks to know exactly what to look for and take time to examine all the sources. Would you like feedback on your reviews? Are you an experienced reviewer who can give feedback to other reviewers? If so there are two new feedback pilot programs. New Reviewer mentorship will match newer reviewers with an experienced reviewer with a new reviewer. The other program will be an occasional peer review cohort for moderate or experienced reviewers to give feedback to each other. The first cohort will launch November 13. The annual ArbCom election will be coming up soon. All eligible users will be invited to vote. While not directly concerned with NPR, Arbcom cases often lead back to notability and deletion issues and/or actions by holders of advanced user rights. There is to be no wish list for WMF encyclopedias this year. We thank Community Tech for their hard work addressing our long list of requirements which somewhat overwhelmed them last year, and we look forward to a successful completion.

 * Getting the queue to 0
 * Coordinator
 * This month's refresher course
 * Tools
 * It is now possible to select new pages by date range. This was requested by reviewers who want to patrol from the middle of the list.
 * It is now also possible for accredited reviewers to put any article back into the New Pages Feed for re-review. The link is under 'Tools' in the side bar.
 * Reviewer Feedback
 * Second set of eyes
 * Not only are New Page Reviewers the guardians of quality of new articles, they are also in a position to ensure that pages are being correctly tagged for deletion and maintenance and that new authors are not being bitten. This is an important feature of your work, especially while some routine tagging for deletion can still be carried out by non NPR holders and inexperienced users. Read about it at the Monitoring the system section in the tutorial. If you come across such editors doing good work, don't hesitate to encourage them to apply for NPR.
 * Do be sure to have our talk page  on your watchlist. There are often items that require reviewers' special attention, such as to watch out for pages by known socks or disruptive editors, technical issues and new developments, and of course to provide advice for other reviewers.

Orphaned non-free image File:Baha Abu al-Ata.jpeg
Thanks for uploading File:Baha Abu al-Ata.jpeg. The image description page currently specifies that the image is non-free and may only be used on Wikipedia under a claim of fair use. However, the image is currently not used in any articles on Wikipedia. If the image was previously in an article, please go to the article and see why it was removed. You may add it back if you think that that will be useful. However, please note that images for which a replacement could be created are not acceptable for use on Wikipedia (see our policy for non-free media).

Note that any non-free images not used in any articles will be deleted after seven days, as described in section F5 of the criteria for speedy deletion. Thank you. --B-bot (talk) 18:34, 17 November 2019 (UTC)

 * Saff - I didn't intentionally unreview this page you had done. I had been looking at reviews of someone who was doing UPE and grew alarmed when I saw a crypto related topic. So sorry about that. But I am skeptical, after having now looked into it, that this is a notable topic. What did you find that led you to mark it reviewed? Best, Barkeep49 (talk) 18:15, 21 November 2019 (UTC)

Hi I am contributing to Wikipedia Asia Month and also combining it with the Women in Red campaign. I have been writing a biographical article on Puah Rakovsky and she was a 19th century feminist.

Women's rights in Iran

 * Hi Saff V., I should tell you there was a sizeable copyright violation in the article and much of its history has been revision deleted. Some of the text was directly copied from copyrighted sources and because of earlier rev-deletions, I couldn't pinpoint the editor responsible. Since you're a prolific editor there, please report any further copyvios you might detect to an administrator and ask for revdel of the relevant material. Cheers,  Baffle☿gab  03:26, 12 December 2019 (UTC)


 * I really appreciate for efforts, the article definitely looks much better. I thought the article could suffer from copyvio, Do you investigate this issue during doing copy edit? As well as did you removed the unrelated content of the article? Saff V. (talk) 06:29, 14 December 2019 (UTC)

Proposed deletion of Iran Action Group


The article Iran Action Group has been proposed for deletion&#32;because of the following concern: "Doesn't seem notable enough for stand-alone page. Simply warrants mention on United States withdrawal from the Joint Comprehensive Plan of Action, Iran–United States relations, etc. Loksmythe (talk) 17:49, 17 December 2019 (UTC)"

While all constructive contributions to Wikipedia are appreciated, pages may be deleted for any of several reasons.

You may prevent the proposed deletion by removing the notice, but please explain why in your edit summary or on the article's talk page.

Please consider improving the page to address the issues raised. Removing will stop the proposed deletion process, but other deletion processes exist. In particular, the speedy deletion process can result in deletion without discussion, and articles for deletion allows discussion to reach consensus for deletion. Loksmythe (talk) 17:49, 17 December 2019 (UTC)

Nomination of Iran Action Group for deletion
A discussion is taking place as to whether the article Iran Action Group is suitable for inclusion in Wikipedia according to Wikipedia's policies and guidelines or whether it should be deleted.

The article will be discussed at Articles for deletion/Iran Action Group until a consensus is reached, and anyone, including you, is welcome to contribute to the discussion. The nomination will explain the policies and guidelines which are of concern. The discussion focuses on high-quality evidence and our policies and guidelines.

Users may edit the article during the discussion, including to improve the article to address concerns raised in the discussion. However, do not remove the article-for-deletion notice from the top of the article. Loksmythe (talk) 17:50, 17 December 2019 (UTC)

New Page Review newsletter December 2019


This year's Reviewer of the Year is. Having gotten the reviewer PERM in August 2018, they have been a regular reviewer of articles and redirects, been an active participant in the NPP community, and has been the driving force for the emerging NPP Source Guide that will help reviewers better evaluate sourcing and notability in many countries for which it has historically been difficult.
 * Reviewer of the Year

Special commendation again goes to who ends the year as one of our most prolific reviewers for the second consecutive year. Thanks also to and  who have been in the top 5 for the last two years as well.

Several newer editors have done a lot of work with CAPTAIN MEDUSA and DannyS712 (who has also written bots which have patrolled thousands of redirects) being new reviewers since this time last year.

Thanks to them and to everyone reading this who has participated in New Page Patrol this year.

(The top 100 reviewers of the year can be found here)

A recent Request for Comment on creating a new redirect autopatrol pseduo-permission was closed early. New Page Reviewers are now able to nominate editors who have an established track record creating uncontroversial redirects. At the individual discretion of any administrator or after 24 hours and a consensus of at least 3 New Page Reviewers an editor may be added to a list of users whose redirects will be patrolled automatically by.
 * Redirect autopatrol

Set to launch early in the new year is our first New Page Patrol Source Guide discussion. These discussions are designed to solicit input on sources in places and topic areas that might otherwise be harder for reviewers to evaluate. The hope is that this will allow us to improve the accuracy of our patrols for articles using these sources (and/or give us places to perform a WP:BEFORE prior to nominating for deletion). Please watch the New Page Patrol talk page for more information.
 * Source Guide Discussion

While New Page Reviewers are an experienced set of editors, we all benefit from an occasional review. This month consider refreshing yourself on Notability (geographic features). Also consider how we can take the time for quality in this area. For instance, sources to verify human settlements, which are presumed notable, can often be found in seconds. This lets us avoid the (ugly) 'Needs more refs' tag. Delivered by MediaWiki message delivery (talk) at 16:11, 20 December 2019 (UTC)

New Page Reviewer newsletter February 2020
Hello ,

The first NPP source guide discussion is now underway. It covers a wide range of sources in Ghana with the goal of providing more guidance to reviewers about sources they might see when reviewing pages. Hopefully, new page reviewers will join others interested in reliable sources and those with expertise in these sources to make the discussion a success.
 * Source Guide Discussion

New to NPP? Looking to try something a little different? Consider patrolling some redirects. Redirects are relatively easy to review, can be found easily through the New Pages Feed. You can find more information about how to patrol redirects at WP:RPATROL.
 * Redirects


 * Discussions and Resources
 * There is an ongoing discussion around changing notifications for new editors who attempt to write articles.
 * A recent discussion of whether Michelin starred restraunts are notable was archived without closure.
 * A resource page with links pertinent for reviewers was created this month.
 * A proposal to increase the scope of G5 was withdrawn.

Geographic regions, areas and places generally do not need general notability guideline type sourcing. When evaluating whether an article meets this notability guideline please also consider whether it might actually be a form of WP:SPAM for a development project (e.g. PR for a large luxury residential development) and not actually covered by the guideline.

You have been blocked indefinitely from editing from certain pages (People's Mujahedin of Iran and Talk:People's Mujahedin of Iran) for abuse of editing privileges. If you think there are good reasons for being unblocked, please read the guide to appealing blocks, then add the following text below the block notice on your talk page:. Vanamonde (Talk) 17:58, 19 February 2020 (UTC)


 * I've warned you several times about the need to edit collaboratively at the page about the MEK. While none of the editors there have demonstrated particularly good behavior, your edit warring over content that did not have consensus, and your inability or unwillingness to understand the page restrictions, suggest you need a break from that page. When you reported another editor to ANEW, you were reminded that the article had a consensus required restriction; then you chose to violate it anyway, with some extremely wiki-lawyerish arguments on the talk page. Please demonstrate an ability to work constructively and collaboratively on other related articles, otherwise I will likely expand this block to a topic-ban. Vanamonde (Talk) 17:47, 19 February 2020 (UTC)


 * I will let another admin judge this unblock request, but in opinion Saff V. will benefit from a break from People's Mujahedin of Iran. The violation of the restriction was the straw that broke the camel's back, as far as I am concerned. Vanamonde (Talk) 19:47, 20 February 2020 (UTC)

 * Saff V., the comment by the IP is disingenuous and I'm going to ignore it, but edits like this one concern me somewhat; the source you removed was not an opinion piece (ie, it was reliable) and therefore it probably deserved a talk page discussion. The edit before that is also concerning; the material you removed was similar to that of a different paragraph, but it was presented very differently, and you also removed a source. I'm going to let another admin deal with your unblock request, but you really need to tread more carefully, because as far as I am concerned you're getting closer to a TBAN from Iranian topics. For the avoidance of doubt, "tread more carefully" means discussing contentious material, not edit-warring when discussion is ongoing, and explaining every edit clearly and completely. Vanamonde (Talk) 17:03, 9 March 2020 (UTC)
 * For this edit I just followed WP:BRD, which doesn't ask to start a discussion for the first step, it just says to be BOLD! In addition, this case seems to me like this one which we decided to remove it. As I wrote in the edit summary, the material was problematic not the source. For this edit, You are an admin and are more familiar with policies. I am sure you don't want this minor view occupies spaces of the article which make undue weight issue. You warn me to be  Tban because I removed this detail "inside a hospital showing footage of multiple body bags piling up" while the important aspect of that news ( the death number in Iran is much higher or arresting him) is repeated in other sections of article related to Ahwaze. I just followed WP:BRD.Saff V. (talk) 09:00, 11 March 2020 (UTC)

Topic ban from Iranian politics

 * Saff V., I'm sorry to do this, because I think you've made a genuine effort to treat Wikipedia less like a battleground, but given the string of previous warnings and the one previous sanction, your response here leaves me little choice. Among several other things, the largest problem is that you added content stating in Wikipedia's voice that US sanctions on Iran are illegal, when the source you used made it clear that that was the view of the Iranian government; and when I asked you about that diff, you didn't acknowledge your mistake, even though it had been explicitly pointed out above. This TBAN is for a year, but it could be shorter, if you work in other areas and show that you can write in a policy-compliant way. I think working in an area where you don't have strong feelings would be good for you, and in time you can return to this topic with a clearer perspective. Vanamonde (Talk) 18:00, 27 April 2020 (UTC)


 * This was not deliberate editing,you are right that I had to add the attribution for it. I admit my mistake. But please note that how I can do it purposefully while I always have been worried about attribution in edits (for example, 1, 2, 3, 4. Please take a look at my positive edits in Wikipedia and give me another chance, 1 year ban is not fair.Saff V. (talk) 07:38, 29 April 2020 (UTC)
 * Sorry, but no. I appreciate your willingness to admit a mistake, but that's not much use if you can't recognize the problems before they happen. I did give you a chance, when I asked you to explain the three worst diffs; but you didn't recognize the problem then. And you've had more than your share of warnings. You have the option of appealing this to WP:AN if you so choose, but I'd recommend that you find a couple of other areas you are interested in, and get more experience building content in an area where you don't have such strong feelings.

New Page Reviewer newsletter June 2020
Hello ,

NPP Sorting can be a great way to find pages needing new page patrolling that match your strengths and interests. Using ORES, it divides articles into topics such as Literature or Chemistry and on Geography. Take a look and see if you can find time to patrol a couple pages a day. With over 10,000 pages in the queue, the highest it's been since ACPERM, your help could really make a difference. In late February, Google added 5 new languages to Google Translate: Kinyarwanda, Odia (Oriya), Tatar, Turkmen and Uyghur. This expands our ability to find and evaluate sources in those languages.
 * Your help can make a difference
 * Google Adds New Languages to Google Translate
 * Discussions and Resources
 * A discussion on handling new article creation by paid editors is ongoing at the Village Pump.
 * Also at the Village Pump is a discussion about limiting participation at Articles for Deletion discussion.
 * A proposed new speedy deletion criteria for certain kinds of redirects ended with no consensus.
 * Also ending with no change was a proposal to change how we handle certain kinds of vector images.

I see you added the primary sources tag to Shia view of Aisha. That article is also not NPOV as it doesn't give any space to Fatwa of Ali Khamenei against insulting revered Sunni figures. I think most of the article might need to be WP:TNT-d.VR talk 01:29, 17 September 2020 (UTC)

New Page Patrol December Newsletter
Hello ,



It has been a productive year for New Page Patrol as we've roughly cut the size of the New Page Patrol queue in half this year. We have been fortunate to have a lot of great work done by who was the reviewer of the most pages and redirects this past year. Thanks and credit go to and  who join Rosguill in repeating in the top 10 from last year. Thanks to, , and who all got the NPR permission this year and joined the top 10. Also new to the top ten is DannyS712 bot III, programmed by which has helped to dramatically reduce the number of redirects that have needed human patrolling by patrolling certain types of redirects (e.g. for differences in accents) and by also patrolling editors who are on on the redirect whitelist.
 * Year in review

has been named reviewer of the year for 2020. John has held the permission for just over 6 months and in that time has helped cut into the queue by reviewing more than 18,000 articles. His talk page shows his efforts to communicate with users, upholding NPP's goal of nurturing new users and quality over quantity.
 * Reviewer of the Year

As a special recognition and thank you has been awarded the first NPP Technical Achievement Award. His work programming the bot has helped us patrol redirects tremendously - more than 60,000 redirects this past year. This has been a large contribution to New Page Patrol and definitely is worthy of recognition.

Education in Islam
I noticed you created the article Education in Islam. What was the intended scope of the article? Was it "Islamic views of education"? What is the state of education in the Muslim world? I think the narrow topic of "Islamic views of education" is better because it is narrower and the article can remain focused.VR talk 19:32, 30 November 2020 (UTC)
 * I apologize for the delay in responding. My mean is "Islamic views of education". I don't think changing the title of the article is the right thing to do. It is better that the suggested title by you could be redirected. According to Wikipedia rules, the title that has seen more on Google search results is the original title and the rest of the title would be redirected.Saff V. (talk) 20:07, 25 December 2020 (UTC)
 * I started a discussion at Talk:Education in Islam where also disagreed with my proposal to change the article name.VR talk 19:11, 13 January 2021 (UTC)

Your draft article, Draft:Shia eschatology


Hello, Saff V.. It has been over six months since you last edited the Articles for Creation submission or Draft page you started, "Shia eschatology".

If you plan on working on it further, or editing it to address the issues raised if it was declined, simply and remove the, , or  code.

Blocked for sockpuppetry
 You have been blocked indefinitely from editing for abusing multiple accounts&#32;per the evidence presented at Sockpuppet investigations/Saff V.. Note that multiple accounts are allowed, but not for illegitimate reasons, and any contributions made while evading blocks or bans may be reverted or deleted. If you think there are good reasons for being unblocked, please read the guide to appealing blocks, then add the following text below the block notice on your talk page:.

 * I was really astonished to see such a strong conclusion was made based on some trivial clues. Saff V is a reputable user and has done a lot of valuable edits to Wikipedia. Hence I believe there are much more evidences proving they are not the same. Just look at their languages; Though they are both non-native, Ghazaalch has a better grasp on English language. I think the "pick up" and "summery" items were well explained by Ghazaalch on their talk page. Saff V is not a new user and I believe sockpuppetry seems like the silliest solution for resolving his ban or block. Moreover, Oshwah's investigations did not end up with a concrete evidence except that they are "in the same geolocation and very wide range". Needless to mention that they have different time cards and editing behavior. Moreover, I believe El C's comment may also be determining here given his experience. I think the least thing we can say here is the case needs an in depth investigation and we should not rely on the superficial items presented in the SPI case. -- M h hossein   talk 19:25, 28 April 2021 (UTC)

I hope you're back soon
I just realized you're sick and can not edit any longer. It's not a good news for me and for the Wikipedia and I hope you're back very soon, healthy and happy. -- M h hossein   talk 12:03, 29 April 2021 (UTC)

Best wishes for a speedy recovery from me, too. Sorry I wasn't around to help with the socking allegation and block, but glad to see it got resolved favourably. Hoping to be back soon to comment more substantively. Take care. El_C 15:53, 29 April 2021 (UTC)
