Categorization of Turkish Cypriot politicians
Greetings Saguamundi

I have been asked for a comment regarding the stub templates used for Turkish Cypriots, and I notice that you show an interest in these articles. I am the person that originally tagged the Cypriots as Europeans rather than Asians and I do of course agree that the island of Cyprus geographically is an extension of Anatolia and consequently a part of Asia, but I believe that most editors and readers will be more likely to associate the island with Europe rather than with Asia, so this was the reason for sorting the stub templates the way I did. Originally, we just used Politician-stub for all articles, but the material became so big that we broke it up by continent. I suspect that a stub template for Middle East politicians will eventually be split off from the Asia-politician-stub and if this happens I would like to avoid the risk of having to tag Cypriot material with templates for both Europe, Asia, and the Middle East all at the same time. :) AFAIK, WP:WSS has, simply for practical purposes, categorized Cyprus under Europe, but if you feel strongly about this issue, may I suggest that you take the matter up with WP:WSS so this issue can be debated and so we can ensure that all Cypriot material will be grouped the same way nomatter which solution is chosen? Happy editing. Valentinian (talk) / (contribs) 22:14, 10 January 2007 (UTC)


 * Saguamundi, can you please provide some explanation why you're adding Category:Turkish people to articles that already have Category:Turkish Cypriots in them? The latter is already a sub-category of the former, making it redundant. Khoikhoi 05:42, 12 January 2007 (UTC)


 * Please also note that due to the way the category system normally works, an editor / reader familiar with other material will expect a biography labelled with "Turkish ..." to refer to an article about a person from Turkey. Grouping Turkish Cypriots in the same category as people from the Republic of Turkey goes against the normal system. Valentinian (talk) / (contribs) 09:05, 12 January 2007 (UTC)

Speedy deletion of Slovetzian
A tag has been placed on Slovetzian, requesting that it be speedily deleted from Wikipedia. This has been done for the following reason:

This article is duplicated in a section of Beautician and the Beast.

Under the criteria for speedy deletion, articles that do not meet very basic Wikipedia criteria may be deleted at any time. Please see the guidelines for what is generally accepted as an appropriate article, and if you can indicate why the subject of this article is appropriate, you may contest the tagging. To do this, add  on the top of the page and leave a note on the article's talk page explaining your position. Please do not remove the speedy deletion tag yourself, but don't hesitate to add information to the article that would confirm its subject's notability under the guidelines.

For guidelines on specific types of articles, you may want to check out our criteria for biographies, for web sites, for bands, or for companies. Feel free to leave a note on my talk page if you have any questions about this. Realkyhick 17:12, 6 April 2007 (UTC)

Judge Ozerdan
None of the references for Judge Halil Suleyman Ozerden indicate the spelling that you keep inserting into the article. All evidence indicates that he, like many Americans with ancestry from non-English speaking countries, has "Americanized" his name by dropping the accents that his fore-fathers used to use. In other words, his name appears to be "Halil Suleyman Ozerden" and not "Halil Süleyman Özerden". Wikipedia policy is to use reliable sources and reflect common usage of names, so if you wish to use an alternate spelling, please supply a reliable source that indicates that that spelling (for him specifically and not just the name elements generically) is what is used.

 * Well I don't agree with such a category necessarily, then we have 50%, 25% and 1% and etc. But anyhow, if something is sourced or their wiki page says it, then it is probably okay.  Sometimes there is mistakes though..--Nepaheshgar (talk) 16:47, 2 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.

Wikiquette alert
I have opened a Wikiquette alert here regarding issues in our recent interactions. Studerby (talk) 21:15, 3 March 2009 (UTC)


 * Sir, your note to Studerby crossed a line. Please assume good faith when editors disagree about content, and certainly do not call them racists simply because they disagree with you.  Because it is important that all users here maintain a civil discourse, editors who breach these non-optional rules can be blocked from editing.  Rather than edit-warring, use dispute resolution mechanisms.  For example, there is a whole noticeboard devoted to content disputes over geopolitical issues such as whether to use Western or Turkish naming where you can seek the input of other neutral editors.

Falklands/Malvinas
Did you actually look at the article? The template automatically italicises the name Islas Malvinas, to highlight it. The Spanish wikipedia treats the name in exactly the same way. This not to deprecate the Spanish name in any way shape or form. Nor does it favour one side over the other, which appears to be your bad faith assumption.

As regards the Anglophobia article, you cut'n'pasted the text from another article including too much detail, it needed a precis which is what I did. Your edit is also incorrect as Argentina has not "relentlessly" pursued its claim, it has dropped it several time for it to be resurrected time and again. The language used was emotive, wasn't the best for English grammar and certainly did not conform to WP:NPOV. See WP:OWN, if you can't accept that people will edit and change your contributions then perhaps you need to rethink whether Wikipedia is for you. Justin talk 15:21, 10 March 2009 (UTC)


 * I endorse this comment, and also note that there is a comment just above the first sentence in Falkland Islands specifically pointing out that we have gone over this at length before, warning that changes are liable to be reverted on sight without discussion, and advising that any overriding new arguments should be taken to talk first.

Proposed deletion of Nejdet Şahin
A proposed deletion template has been added to the article Nejdet Şahin, suggesting that it be deleted according to the proposed deletion process&#32; because of the following concern:
 * Article fails WP:V, WP:N and WP:ATHLETE as it contains no sources that establish the athlete is notable or has played in a fully-pro league

All contributions are appreciated, but this article may not satisfy Wikipedia's criteria for inclusion, and the deletion notice should explain why (see also "What Wikipedia is not" and Wikipedia's deletion policy). You may prevent the proposed deletion by removing the  notice, but please explain why you disagree with the proposed deletion in your edit summary or on its talk page.

Please consider improving the article to address the issues raised because, even though removing the deletion notice will prevent deletion through the proposed deletion process, the article may still be deleted if it matches any of the speedy deletion criteria or it can be sent to Articles for Deletion, where it may be deleted if consensus to delete is reached.

Istanbul's climate
Hi Saguamundi! Your comments on Istanbul's climate have had me search for better alternatives to Koeppen. As you know, under Koeppen Istanbul does come under the Csa (Mediterranean) zone, even though it has little in common with other areas within the same zone. Another editor has brought this study to my attention. You may already be familiar with it... I like the fact that, apart from the Macrobioclimatic zones, it has various levels of detail. It shows Istanbul in a Mediterranean macro zone, but in a unique sub-category, based on continental influences. Koppenlady (talk) 19:14, 22 December 2009 (UTC)

Orphaned non-free image File:Misty mountains-1-.png
 Thanks for uploading File:Misty mountains-1-.png. 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.

Speedy deletion nomination of Forests of Azerbaijan
A tag has been placed on Forests of Azerbaijan, requesting that it be speedily deleted from Wikipedia. This has been done under the criteria for speedy deletion, because it is a very short article providing no content to the reader. Please note that external links, "See also" section, book reference, category tag, template tag, interwiki link, rephrasing of the title, or an attempt to contact the subject of the article don't count as content. Moreover, please add more verifiable sources, not only 3rd party sources. Please see Wikipedia:Stub for our minimum information standards for short articles. Also please note that articles must be on notable subjects and should provide references to reliable sources that verify their content. You may wish to consider using a Wizard to help you create articles - see the Article Wizard.

Please do not remove the speedy deletion tag yourself. If you plan to expand the article, you can request that administrators wait a while for you to add contextual material. To do this, affix the template   to the page and state your intention on the article's talk page. Feel free to leave a note on my talk page if you have any questions about this.

Just to clarify in case it's unclear, Wikipedia is not bound by what's considered the "official" name or by official language considerations. Our core rule on here is to use whatever can be documentably shown to be the most common name for the topic in actual English usage, regardless of whether that name is official or unofficial, regardless of whether it's French or English. So moving some street names isn't necessarily out of the question — but it's a question of showing sources to demonstrate whether English-language sources actually use "avenue des Pins" or "Pine Avenue", not which name is formally correct in the province's own official language.

Just as another example, our article about the capital of Russia is located at the English spelling Moscow, not the officially correct Москва́, and our article about the capital of Poland is located at the English spelling Warsaw, not the officially correct Warszawa — because we're an English language reference, we use the form that's actually seen in English language sources whether it's the place's official name in its own official language or not. Hope that helps a bit. Bearcat (talk) 23:47, 24 March 2011 (UTC)


 * You once again mass moved pages related to Belgium, including the page La Monnaie in several other languages. Remember to discuss moves that you think might be controversial before you do them instead of acting unilaterally.  Oreo Priest  talk 23:51, 16 November 2012 (UTC)
 * Wow, that was much more constructive than I expected, often those who move pages with no discussion are not interested in consensus or are pushing an agenda. Sorry for my earlier tone if too harsh, and sorry for forgetting to link the naming conventions (here: WikiProject Belgium/Brussels naming conventions). At any rate, I think your concerns line up pretty well with what we came up with for the naming conventions. In every case, the alternate name must be mentioned (unless it appears in a link), and both names must always be in bold and in the infobox. If when reading them, you're wondering why it seems like Dutch is taking a back seat to French, it's because A) English speakers almost always use the French, and B) writing two names all the time was thought to be messy and inappropriate. The goal was still neutrality, but it's neutrality from an English speaker's point of view. If you have any questions, let me know, and I look forward to your further contributions.

Israel Railways photo formatting
Greetings, Saguamundi. You reverted an edit by User:Ynhockey on the Israel Railways article. I am in favor of Ynhockey's formatting for the following reason: In the version to which you reverted, the photos (maps) on the right side push down the rest of the article creating empty white space. In Ynhockey's version, the maps remain on the right side of the table no matter what size window the reader uses.
