Your recent comment
Regarding your edit summary about a possible sock. Do you suspect some editor in particular? EdJohnston (talk) 17:51, 2 May 2020 (UTC)
 * Hello, EdJohnston, first let me wish you and yours good health, I hope all is well at your end. As for suspicion expressed in my "edit summaries", well, it seems to me that most likely culprit should be sought between at least three possible candidates, all of them closely tied to hr.wikipedia, but I suspect one editor in particular: IP on 27 April, IP on 1 May, and editor "of interest". I hope I have not misinterpreted your query. Stay safe, EdJohnston, and take care.-- ౪ Santa ౪ 99°  21:08, 2 May 2020 (UTC)
 * Looking at Special:Contributions/188.252.192.0/18 I see a variety of interests, so surely more than one person active. There isn't much reason for a rangeblock. You are hinting that a named editor could be avoiding a restriction but the evidence would have to be specified more clearly. I could see some reason for semiprotections, but only with further study. Thanks for your good wish. EdJohnston (talk) 23:59, 2 May 2020 (UTC)

Your GA nomination of Bosnian genocide denial
The article Bosnian genocide denial you nominated as a good article has passed ; see Talk:Bosnian genocide denial for comments about the article. Well done! If the article has not already been on the main page as an "In the news" or "Did you know" item, you can nominate it to appear in Did you know. Message delivered by Legobot, on behalf of Mhare -- Mhare (talk) 21:01, 1 May 2020 (UTC)


 * Congratulations! Great work! The article certainly has potential, and I think we can nudge it even further. Next step would be peer review. Eisfbnore  (会話) 23:02, 1 May 2020 (UTC)
 * Thank you both, Mhare as a reviewer, and thank you Eisfbnore on your good suggestions and genuine will to help improve the article. I really hope you will retain interest so that we can keep up the good work on everything that follows, with both actual improvements and promotion - I realized that there is still room for that with "A" class, "Featured Article", and so on. I also read the article "The Holocaust in Slovakia" last night, and it is an exquisite job you did there. Also, I hope that  Calthinus, Resnjari and others will continue to contribute. Thank you to all - stay safe and take care.-- ౪ Santa ౪  99°  10:11, 2 May 2020 (UTC)
 * Well that's nice but I think the credit should go to Buidhe wrt the Slovakia article. Eisfbnore  (会話) 12:38, 2 May 2020 (UTC)
 * Huh, my apologies to Buidhe, obviously I confused some discussions, somewhere ¯\_(゜-゜)_/¯.-- ౪ Santa ౪ 99°  13:00, 2 May 2020 (UTC)

Did you notice the recent Twitter spat between Jasmin Mujanović and Glenn Greenwald? Interesting to watch how certain stuff never seems to settle completely… Eisfbnore (会話) 02:19, 15 May 2020 (UTC)
 * Thanks, Eisfbnore, this is really interesting, and really unfortunate. There are lots of noise in that thread, but ultimately in one of his answers, and that's my feeling, Greenwald quite exaggerated understanding of how he was regarded and described by Mujanović, aside that he was really over the top with his insult, and that he interpreted Jasmin's point rather poorly. Hey, I want you to know that I'm counting on some of your inputs, sometime in the future, when I return to this article - or, if you decide to work on it yourself, alert me I will help.-- ౪ Santa ౪ 99°  08:41, 15 May 2020 (UTC)
 * Yeah, not the most charming aspect of left-wing purity politics/vampire castle&hellip;sorta brings out the worst in people. Greenwald is a journalist, and a very good one, so he should be expected to do a quick background check before he tweets out. Tankie twitter accounts are also extremely easy to spot, even if they don't have a ☭ or a cute DPRK flag in their display name. He also at times can be very abrasive and easily triggered, which I don't think is helping anyone.
 * I hope you liked my recent addition to BGD article – I finally got round to it. There's plenty of stuff on the documentary on the web, although 90 % in Norwegian, of course. Maybe the blurb I wrote was too long, maybe too short. I don't know. It is an interesting case of bothsidesism completely landing on its face, with a legitimate grievance (Orić' looting and murdering) turned into uncritical lip service for genocidal maniacs. It was a decisive turning point in the typical Norwegian "just-asking-questions" type of documentary film making, especially after the outrage it created. Eisfbnore  (会話) 09:08, 15 May 2020 (UTC)
 * Just found out you can watch the documentary in its entirety on YouTube (with Italian subs). Eisfbnore  (会話) 19:48, 15 May 2020 (UTC)
 * Yes, my thoughts exactly. In context of the Balkan wars in the 1990s, they were often exposed flirting with the most heinous of extreme ideological narratives of the far-right - uninformed or unsuspecting reader would think, a truly freakish deviation among the radical left, but it's nothing new and it's not just radical left, unfortunately. The situation today could be even more palpable , with rise of anti-Semitism, Islamophobia and situation with emigration. But there are also those who have tried, and still do, to save the face of the “left,” just like Weinberg, the Lippman brothers, and others.
 * Also, you read my mind - I did not have the opportunity to watch the doc. Unfortunately I don't know much of Italian, and I don't understand Norwegian - I'll try to find (any language transcript) on the Internet, if it existed somewhere online, then I could make my own subtitle.
 * And one more thing, this passage you wrote is great, but it's not the only thing I had in mind - for some reason I convinced myself that you had previously worked on the promotion of articles to "A" and "FA", and that's what I would like you to help me with, when you have the time and energy (or I would help you).-- ౪ Santa ౪ 99°  21:41, 16 May 2020 (UTC)


 * If you're able to make it past the vomit-inducing intro (complete with orientalizing string music), you'll find that the dialogue happens to be in Serbo-Croatian, and the narrating voice dubbed into English for this version. No need to worry about the subs. I have toiled a bit in the FAC vineyard, although exclusively as a reviewer. Despite my familiarity with the process, I still find it a bit daunting&hellip;I'm also not sure that I'll stick around after the 'rona, as RL will take its demands, leaving little to no time for WP editing. Anyhow, I need to get some sleep now, since it is our Constitution Day on the 17th. Gatherings are officially limited to twenty people, and there'll be no parade downtown, but I hope it'll be joyous and fun nevertheless. Journalists are falling over themselves to compare it to occupation era Norway, as you might imagine&hellip; Eisfbnore (会話) 23:39, 16 May 2020 (UTC)


 * Hi, Eisfbnore, you're right, it's nauseating to watch this damn documentary, but the good thing is that you are in control on Youtube, so you can alleviate all the pain of listening that ill-willed, distorting narrative by skipping through, coming back if necessary, and watching it section by section. I missed a lot but on first watch, but I wasn’t at all surprised by what I saw and heard, and I probably didn’t miss much by skipping some of the parts. Bottom line, I’m glad I finally managed to see it, and I’ll watch it again to catch those parts I missed. Hey, I hope you had a good time for Statehood Day, and that everything went smoothly.-- ౪ Santa ౪ 99°  19:15, 20 May 2020 (UTC)


 * Yeah 17th was fine, although pretty boring, since we couldn't move around that much. First time I have been clear-headed and not hungover on the 18th. ;-) Anyhow, I'm glad you were able to stomach some parts of the doc, even though most of the talking points delivered will be familiar to you, I guess. I'd recommend running  (spam filter prohibits linkage) through Google Translate, for a point-by-point refusal of the ludicrous statements given.  Eisfbnore  (会話) 20:39, 20 May 2020 (UTC)


 * It's really cool that Norwegian Helsinki Committee reacted this way, they really pressed the issue.-- ౪ Santa ౪ 99°  01:46, 21 May 2020 (UTC)


 * Yeah, I remember folks were very satisfied with the final verdict by the Norwegian Press Complaints Commission, which definitely drew a line in the sand. I hope you were able to make som sense of the Google Translate job. A phrase frequently used in the document is "å sette ting på hodet", which translated directly means "to put things on its head", i.e a preposterous claim, not "put matter on your mind". :-) Also, "Vær Varsom Plakaten" is "Be Careful/Considerate/Conscientious Placard", not "Weather Warning Poster".

Speedy deletion nomination of Category:Islamophobia in non-fiction


A tag has been placed on Category:Islamophobia in non-fiction requesting that it be speedily deleted from Wikipedia. This has been done under section C1 of the criteria for speedy deletion, because the category has been empty for seven days or more and is not a disambiguation category, a category redirect, a featured topics category, under discussion at Categories for discussion, or a project category that by its nature may become empty on occasion.

If you think this page should not be deleted for this reason, 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 deleted 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. Liz Read! Talk! 17:41, 2 June 2020 (UTC)

Sandstein's idea
Frankly, I just wanted to say I disagree. I share your concerns about possible non-encyclopedic interests at play, but it is a mistake to have faith that our topic area will be rescued by some well-meaning Westerners or Koreans or whoever. Whenever non-Balkanians get involved, they either don't make enough effort to actually learn the matters at stake, or they do but then get sucked in -- myself, Taivo, Fut Perf... -- and end up accused of voting in one of the Balkan "blocs" anyways -- which imo should raise questions about whether these "blocs" are actually based on ethnicity or instead based on personalities, who simply assert they are "ethnic blocs" in order to obscure the interpersonal dynamics at play, which are the real reason for much of the allegedly "ethnic" bloc behavior. Hence I (and even Cinadon -- a Greek!) get mistaken for an Albanians (except for that episode my old userpage was defaced by someone who thought I was a Greek...), and Taivo and FP for Macedonians. There is no reason to think it is somehow going to change the game if Sandstein invents this rule. Really, the best thing I have seen happen to Balkan topics is native Balkan editors who are actually conscientious and working to build an encyclopedia, including working with "the other side". Sandstein's non-policy threw out the baby with the bathwater. --Calthinus (talk) 17:05, 7 June 2020 (UTC)
 * I am not sure I have a smart or complete answer, if such exists at all, the whole question is too depressing to contemplate - instead of enjoying editing as a sort of a nice hobby, we all-too-often find ourselves in a situation stressful as if we are friggin' air traffic controllers or something. Far from being the only scope on the project that is infected with the deep problems of non-encyclopedic attitudes, nationalism, bias and pov-pushing, the Balkan scope situation is seriously depressing nevertheless. I must admit I especially agree with your observation about the lack of effort and knowledge on the part of the "outsider" editors, once they decide to engage - I expressed concerns similar to your own occasionally. Ultimately, there are worse things for editors than getting desperate and angry, or getting attracted to unusual propositions and solutions, which is "wiki-retirement", or even worse, "wiki-suicide".-- ౪ Santa ౪ 99°  17:59, 8 June 2020 (UTC)

 * Thanks, actually! It is fixed now.

Now it looks easier to distinguish it within article text.-- ౪ Santa ౪ 99°  17:45, 3 May 2021 (UTC)
 * I'm discussing this on your talk page because I thought it would be more constructive than talking about your behavior on the article talk page. You made a bad edit, and instead of assuming good faith and figuring out what you did wrong, you accused me of lying. That's inappropriate, and you owe me apology for it. And now you just accused previous editors of the article (including me) of "intentional obscuring information for whitewashing purposes" which is exactly the opposite of "assuming good faith".
 * It is not my fault that you didn't read the article carefully before editing it. And you are not a 10-year-old child, so it is not my responsibility to hold your hand and show you exactly which information you duplicated. You made these mistakes. Take responsibility for them.

Hello:

The copy edit you requested from the Guild of Copy Editors of the article Stjepan Vukčić Kosača has been completed.

Please let me know if you have any questions or concerns.

I have tagged two sentences in the Struggle for family inheritance with "clarification needed" tags as I was unable to understand what the text was tring to convey.

Kosača
Hi, Santasa99. You have done excellent work at Stjepan Vukčić Kosača. I intended to perform the GA review but found that a lot more needs be done. Do you want me to proceed with the review and post suggestions there or would you rather that I take a more active role and edit the article ahead of a review by another editor? Issues include punctuation, spelling, linking, capitalization, clarity, grammar, and internal consistency. Surtsicna (talk) 16:53, 13 July 2021 (UTC)


 * Please, Surtsicna, by all means, and not just spelling and grammar. It would be great if you are willing to spare some of your time and energy necessary to introduce whatever you find is lacking in terms of substance in current version (key -events, -people, -dates, and so on, which could also add some depth on certain episodes which I didn't dwell on or include at all, improve and make narrative more coherent, and so forth). However, also take into consideration that copyediting was performed, and by one of the project's top copyeditors, who upon finishing copyediting job warned me of the possibility that (s)he may have unwittingly changed some meaning, context, flow, in some sentences/para's - operation could have left behind some awkward phrases, expressions or sentences, which, I suppose, is what usually happens when copyeditors find themselves in uncharted territories of unfamiliar subject. I already checked and remedied few of such mistakes based on the copyeditor's misunderstanding of context and intended meanings, but it could be that some of it still remains. Anyhow, with your grasp of regional medieval history and, I suspect, bibliography on the particular topic and concrete subject, and historiography in general, your involvement will be very beneficial and absolutely appreciated.
 * Regarding the review process, I am certain that your eventual direct involvement (via prose editing), in pursuing a promotion on the quality-scale while overseeing the review process should not, can not, in any way, impair your role as "GA" reviewer in that process - improving bits of the existing article to achieve standard of the quality-scale required by the review process falls under reviewers' prerogatives (see 4. under WP:GAN/I). On my part, I will be at your disposal all the way and ready to fulfill nominators' obligations.-- ౪ Santa ౪ 99°  16:13, 14 July 2021 (UTC)


 * what happened, did you change your mind about the intention to review this article?-- ౪ Santa ౪ 99°  01:22, 21 July 2021 (UTC)
 * No, I am definitely going for it. I just had a sudden burst of inspiration to expand the article about King Baldwin the Leper, so I had to follow that through first :D Surtsicna (talk) 09:36, 21 July 2021 (UTC)

Categorizing areas by fauna
Hello Santasa99,

Is Category:Hucho habitats in Bosnia and Herzegovina really a good idea? There are regions of the world that have tens of thousands of native fauna. This seems like overcategorization (WP:OC) unless hucho are somehow staggeringly rare AND influential. Any thoughts on possibly emptying & deleting the category? If a river is really notable as a place hucho fishers go, it can be added as normal referenced content in prose, rather than as a category. SnowFire (talk) 21:58, 30 November 2021 (UTC)


 * Hi Snow, I wouldn't let myself go on with it if I didn't believe it will be appropriate. My explanation is that huchen is endemic, endangered, and of huge importance to a world's freshwater ecosystem. In a way it is a "great white" of a rivers, but confined to only handful of rivers in the Danube river basin, and even there it was IUCN-categorized as threatened/endangered several years ago or by now even a critically endangered. Bottom line is that it won't hurt if have those rivers categorized per country (basically, six countries overall), with Bosnia being a country with probably largest number of these rivers (like two dozens at most). Thanks and happy holidays.-- ౪ Santa ౪ 99°  23:47, 30 November 2021 (UTC)
 * Fair enough. I'll be honest, I still don't really agree, but it sounds like there's at least a case to be made.  (The main worry is that if "categorization by fauna" becomes a thing, even if restricted to endangered / unique fauna, then Amazon River should have like 100+ categories drowning out all the more relevant categories.  But we'll see, I suppose.)  Regardless, nice additions in prose on tourism & recreation - even if the category is deleted some day, it certainly deserves to be mentioned in the article prose.

Copying within Wikipedia requires attribution (second request)
Thank you for your contributions to Wikipedia. It appears that you copied or moved text from Schutzkorps into Stjepan Vukčić Kosača. While you are welcome to re-use Wikipedia's content, here or elsewhere, Wikipedia's licensing does require that you provide attribution to the original contributor(s). When copying within Wikipedia, this is supplied at minimum in an edit summary at the page into which you've copied content, disclosing the copying and linking to the copied page, e.g.,. It is good practice, especially if copying is extensive, to also place a properly formatted copied template on the talk pages of the source and destination. Please provide attribution for this duplication if it has not already been supplied by another editor, and if you have copied material between pages before, even if it was a long time ago, you should provide attribution for that also. You can read more about the procedure and the reasons at Copying within Wikipedia. Thank you. — Diannaa (talk) 15:29, 1 December 2021 (UTC)
 * Diannaa, that's simply impossible, not only that I would know for certain if that's the case, since I rewrote entire Stjepan Vukčić Kosača article, but the Schutzkorps and Stjepan Vukčić Kosača articles and their respective subjects have nothing what-so-ever(!) in common - not only that, move like that would most certainly messed up the article on Stjepan Vukčić Kosača. But, just in case that whole thing somehow simply slipped my mind, would you lead me to a diff where all began?-- ౪ Santa ౪ 99°  15:51, 1 December 2021 (UTC)

 * That makes more sense. Yes, I am a culprit - I wrote entire Stjepan's article. I used some bits and pieces in more or less changed form in several other articles on the history of Bosnia. Also, I was aware that I can copy/paste my own prose from article to article, and I am following your earlier advice on this matter and trying to have it on my mind when copy/pasting - you can see your earlier post at the top of this page.

Edit warring at Zachlumia
Helo Santasa99. You've been warned per a complaint at the edit warring noticeboard. Either of you may be blocked if you revert the article again without getting a prior consensus for your change on the article talk page. EdJohnston (talk) 18:43, 5 January 2022 (UTC)
 * Really, well thanks EdJohnston, this sends interesting message, though - it seem that one could fare much better in these edit-Warring AN's if simply let go and force their POV-will until someone makes complaint and then expect that reporting party gets the same treatment as one who obviously ignores arguments and guidelines invocation, and even consensus no matter how low number of editors reached it (Ktrimi and myself in this case for instance - similar situation happened when you threatened to block me and an editor I reported on problems with the article titled Duchy of St Sava while on my side of the argument were several editors including one admin, and on his non). What's bothers me the most is that I can only hope it's not inertia that overtook, to get the job done and close the case back at the AN. A little deeper scratch on the surface would reveal that reported editor is already found his way to a sock investigation, but somehow pulled through with only few days or weeks block, or that he created account a year ago, in the midst of banning of several editors from Serbia, and upon creation immediately plunged himself into most controversial articles and TP discussions with suspiciously adequate Wiki vocabulary.

Edit warring on LGBT in Islam
You currently appear to be engaged in an edit war&#32; according to the reverts you have made on LGBT in Islam. This means that you are repeatedly changing content back to how you think it should be although other editors disagree. Users are expected to collaborate with others, to avoid editing disruptively, and to try to reach a consensus, rather than repeatedly undoing other users' edits once it is known that there is a disagreement.

Points to note: If you find yourself in an editing dispute, use the article's talk page to discuss controversial changes and work towards a version that represents consensus among editors. You can post a request for help at an appropriate noticeboard or seek dispute resolution. In some cases, it may be appropriate to request temporary page protection. If you engage in an edit war, you may be blocked from editing. —  Manti  core  01:50, 12 February 2022 (UTC)

Objecting draftification
Thanks,, but given that in a very short time you have chosen to review several articles I have created, I would expect that by now you could have assumed that I would object draftification, because I prefer when you handle [it] through other processes, such as deletion, stubbing, tagging, etc. - so, at least three other ways exist (and some more?). This is because the last time you draftified one of my articles (I believe Dinjčić article few days ago, right?), I explained why I prefer other options in these words: If we take into account the fact that the community of editors who are interested in this topic is extremely small, removing the article from the mainspace only further narrows the number of editors who would be willing to improve the article with proper references, thus shifting the weight to the creator alone. Since the subject of this article is notable, and since it's hardly blatant example of an article unsuitable for the mainspace or misguided creation, I am asking you to move the page back to mainspace so that it can be further developed from there.; further, when the time is short for me to ref an article properly, I at least always leave Bibliography with some high profile scholarship for any interested party to use as a starting point. Now, since deletion (AfD) would be highly prejudicial move, taking that this article is/was linked from dozens of other articles, written on the subject of Balkan history, and whenever those touch the history of Vlach ethnic group and Katun as their socio-political organisation, and probably many more that were left out because different link format, then, probably most collaborative and least controversial way of handling it would be proper tagging. Thanks (and I really hope you won't take this personally, after I contested every single decision you tried to implement wherever I was active as an editor - it's just a fluke, probably).-- ౪ Santa ౪ 99°  17:52, 14 February 2022 (UTC)

 * Preferably non.-- ౪ Santa ౪ 99°  13:16, 17 February 2022 (UTC)
 * Well, obviously, preferably none, but since divine intervention (topic pun unintended) is unlikely, a veteran editor is expected to learn how to condense. Writing a report whose length is several orders of magnitude greater than 90 percent of reports on that board (and of the remaining 10 percent, overwhelmingly from new editors who have little concept of the volunteer part in volunteer project), that's just odd, and self-defeating. And time consuming, for naught, lest we forget. The sooner you come to terms with these sort of best practices, the less strain you're likely to face in such venues (in nearly any venue, in fact).

PEN Bosnia and Herzegovina moved to draftspace
An article you recently created, PEN Bosnia and Herzegovina, is not suitable as written to remain published. It needs more citations from reliable, independent sources. (?) Information that can't be referenced should be removed (verifiability is of central importance on Wikipedia). I've moved your draft to draftspace (with a prefix of " " before the article title) where you can incubate the article with minimal disruption.

Marko Vego
When he was alive Bosnia and Herzegovina did not exist. He is described as Yugoslav. Rathfelder (talk) 08:37, 30 May 2022 (UTC)


 * When he was active Bosnia and Herzegovina very much existed, as a federal republic, with its nationhood inscribed in birth and citizenship certificate of its citizens, just like nationhood of all six constituent republic in their certificates. Its the same nationhood used as a formal basis to gain independence in 1990s. Not to mention that great majority of these Yugoslav historians are all included in their respective Serbian, Croatian, Slovene, Macedonian, Albanian categories, so there is no reason to single out Bosnian historians and treat them any differently from, say, Serbian and Croatian Yugoslav historians. ౪ Santa ౪  99°  09:00, 30 May 2022 (UTC)


 * The article Bosnia and Herzegovina does not appear to support this. It says: "The establishment of the Kingdom of Yugoslavia in 1929, however, brought the redrawing of administrative regions into banates or banovinas that purposely avoided all historical and ethnic lines, removing any trace of a Bosnian entity."  I'm not suggesting that Bosnians should be treated any differently from Serbian and Croatian Yugoslavs, but the general idea is that national categories should be related to the nations as they were when the person was active.  That isnt always straightforward.  Rathfelder (talk) 15:13, 30 May 2022 (UTC)
 * Yes, you read correctly, but, oh-boy, you really know how to cherry-pick info and / or era. Bosnia like all other Yug. countries was erased as an entity with borders - all of them, Serbia, Croatia, Montenegro and Slovenia, all lost their territorial integrity and borders during Kingdom of Yugoslavia period, however, why would we consider that fact of any significance to Vego?! He was active during SFRJ not Kingdom. Anyhow, in cases of science, philosophy and to some extent art, we use constituent republics as peoples' parent nationality, mostly in regard of existence of national academies (SANU, ANUBiH, ANUCG, JANU/HAZU as Croatian specificum, etc.). Bottom line, Vego specifically is Bosnian / Bosnia and Herzegovnian historian in sources, and these always supersede all and any POV argument. Anyway, you are not that mistaken in general when checking these cases for specific national categorisation within the scope of Yugoslavia, but there are some peculiarities that we, editors editing in Balkans scope, have silently agreed upon - Academy of Science and Arts of the particular republic can provide basis to identify, in this case, historian as belonging to that particular constituent-nation. ౪ Santa ౪  99°  19:07, 30 May 2022 (UTC)

Speedy deletion nomination of International Day Against Fascism and Antisemitism


A tag has been placed on International Day Against Fascism and Antisemitism requesting that it be speedily deleted from Wikipedia. This has been done under section G12 of the criteria for speedy deletion, because the page appears to be an unambiguous copyright infringement. This page appears to be a direct copy from http://dayagainstfascism.eu/09-november/. For legal reasons, we cannot accept copyrighted text or images taken from other web sites or printed material, and as a consequence, your addition will most likely be deleted. You may use external websites or other printed material as a source of information, but not as a source of sentences. This part is crucial: say it in your own words. Wikipedia takes copyright violations very seriously and persistent violators will be blocked from editing.

If the external website or image belongs to you, and you want to allow Wikipedia to use the text or image — which means allowing other people to use it for any reason — then you must verify that externally by one of the processes explained at Donating copyrighted materials. The same holds if you are not the owner but have their permission. If you are not the owner and do not have permission, see Requesting copyright permission for how you may obtain it. You might want to look at Wikipedia's copyright policy for more details, or ask a question here.

If you think this page should not be deleted for this reason, 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 deleted 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.

"invented"
Hello Santasa99. Could you please explain to me what do you mean by "it is completely invented by editor who created it"? Are you accusing me of creating hoaxes in Wikipedia? Your behavior and attitude shows a disregard of respect for the work of other editors. I will give you an advice: do not accuse established editors of making up articles and having some kind of POV or bias. It will eventually end up with your name at the administrators' noticeboard. Super  Ψ   Dro  08:32, 1 October 2022 (UTC)


 * No, I am not accusing you of creating hoaxes, and I certainly never claimed any bias on your part. That could be interpreted as spreading WP:aspersions. Also, I would really like to emphasize that I believe my behavior and attitude certainly do not show disregard and lack of respect for the work of other editors - at least I sincerely hope that the AFD discussion is not and cannot be a sufficient sample for such a unwavering conclusion - actually, I really appreciate and admire others good, constructive contribution to our project. But maybe, to avoid any confusion and to avoid giving you any reason to feel that way, I should have said that you "came up" with it without any sources to support it (which is basically POV situation). Simply, I have never heard of such terminology being employed when people researching Bosnia and Herzegovina history, politics and military; I have never heard of genuine research of the phenomenon, which you tried to describe with your article creation, and for which you provided zero sources (except a list of those three book titles included in References). In such a controversial topic, I dare to claim that established editors should know better, not to create such situation. I am really sorry if this is your only concern regarding my AfD, and I'm really sorry if you came up with such an idea only on the basis of that one word of entire AfD. That certainly was not my intention. ౪ Santa ౪  99°  09:49, 1 October 2022 (UTC)

Gazimestan speech
Please be aware that "irredentism" from its own article refers to the doctrine of redeeming lost territories while the speech itself did not allude to irredetmsim, and nor did it advocate redrawing Serbia's borders (which were only internal anyway). The term features only on the "Reception" sector of the article by one or two writers to loosely connect the event with later events that would occur in Bosnia and in Croatia and in particular with the narrative of how events were being portrayed in mainstream media and less so on the ground. That in itself does not insinuate a link between the content of the speech and the ideological doctrine you have sought to include. --Coldtrack (talk) 06:21, 25 November 2022 (UTC)


 * Two writers are only proper scholars referenced in the entire article, others predominantly being historians. Article itself is underwritten, under-sourced and considerably sanitized of real scholarship. But all that is irrelevant, because category and article categorization is not equal to labeling, and it certainly not intended to "insinuate" anything. It also doesn't matter how much term is featuring within the content, but how it features. Everything else you are trying to explain is your personal opinion. ౪ Santa ౪  99°  07:26, 25 November 2022 (UTC)

Daniel Case (talk) 19:23, 4 December 2022 (UTC)


 * FAO any admin who considers this appeal. Santasa99 was (correctly) blocked for violating 3RR at Srebrenica massacre, and then making one more outside of it though in reality, he who prates about "consensus" plainly refuses to get his head around the fact that he has been fighting a one-man battle for four years on this subject and has come up against two dissenting voices (which outnumbers him) and has further failed to sell his POV to one more editor, that being  at Talk:Srebrenica. In fact, if the admin inspects this very page for contributions inside the last 48 hours, (s)he will find this challenge to Santasa99 over where he obtained his own consensus for his steadfast, unwavering and uncompromising change in January 2019 on a topic title that has changed relatively amicably a good dozen times since its original inception in 2004 (for which I personally needed a good half hour to collate this useful package). Yet here we are two days later, and still Santasa99 continues to play the age-old trick of ICANTHEARYOU to what he knows is an uncomfortable question that sets one's face against the principles of the project, all in the hope that if he ignores it long enough it will dry up. This is why it is essential that before an admin considers an unblock, that admin must hold Santasa99's feet to the fire for an answer to where his consensus is, or Santasa99 should pluck the integrity to admit that he never had a consensus whereupon he should cease the prevarication of criticising J.O and me for insisting on a revision that frankly speaking sat harmlessly for four years before Santasa99's sarcastic "what sceptisism?" removal in January 2019 (linked already). Yet it was neither J.O nor I who formulated the version we jointly restored but rather an editor seemingly no longer active  in 2015. On balance, I'd say Santasa99 is on his own against a clear mini-consensus no less that opposes him. Then there is the logistics behind the opposition to Santasa99's removal which has been explained myriad times by three editors now. With regards Santasa's predictable line about some conspiracy between J.O and me, I believe that J.O beat him to the punch on this one and dismantled Santasa99's myth before Santasa99 even spoke in his ANEW report. So while Santasa99 uses his unblock request as an attempt to drag down two opposing editors by referring to their activities on other articles, I repeat what J.O stated in his report which is that such a claim carries the burden of proof, and Santasa99 fails to produce a sequence of edits whereby J.O and I have - between us - stood at over three reverts inside of 24 hours. Without this, nothing technically forbids either of us making the revert at the time in question, so his TAGTEAM claim is without merit. Meanwhile, I should also stress that I edit almost exclusively on world affairs, history and politics from around the world, so Srebrenica massacre is not off-topic for me, and as for J.O, he originates from the former Yugoslavia and edits exclusively on that part of the world. So nobody "followed" Santasa99 anywhere, and nobody reverted any fresh edit from Santasa99 to the best of my knowledge. To the contrary, the first act of conflict between Santasa99 and either J.O or me these past days was this revert (although the summary doesn't reflect this). As for why it is wrong and how sources have been misinterpreted, Santasa99 has had that too explained to him on the talk page whereupon one other editor also weighed in with problems regarding his sources, that being . With regards his objection to how I refer to sources in talk space, this has already been explained to him but once again, "I didn't hear that", and it doesn't help his case anyhow because he can offer no evidence of where I have personally inserted an unreliable source, or removed a reliable source (where it has supported the point being claimed). This leaves the final matter which again J.O cited in the report which is that Santasa99 was aware that he was in breach of 3RR(+1 additional) at this stage several hours before J.O drafted his report. Santasa99 was live during this period, and instead of self-reverting, used his opportunity instead to vindicate his campaign. So please would any admin considering an unblock ask Santasa99 why he failed to self-revert when being given hours to do so. Thank you. --Coldtrack (talk) 05:07, 5 December 2022 (UTC)


 * Comment - I have accepted my responsibility, as it happened when I came day after I have made my revert few hours earlier. Most likely my block will expire before this appeal even gets into consideration because there so many of these appeals waiting a review, so I should have removed it and use more appropriate venue in addressing the issue. As far as I know English Wikipedia is not a democracy, sheer number of "dissenting" POV by two editors is not enough, one needs proper argument preferably with proper evidence, properly espoused at TP, to sway consensus toward his POV, something these two editors never even tried. What they have aplenty is this kind of battleground mentality also evident from their rhetoric and vocabulary. From Coldtrck link and article history is obvious that when I removed "skepticism" in 2019 nobody challenged my edit back then - after all, we can see even in this case how Pincrete actually rejected to support these two editors' notion that their change to the article is acceptable (Pincrete rejecting it, Coltrack acknowledged the fact but nevertheless continued with rv's).-- ౪ Santa ౪ 99°  10:05, 5 December 2022 (UTC)
 * You've been told a thousand times there is no POV where you're concerned. Yes two editors are inserting something factual, and you are constantly removing it because precisely the reason that you feel its inclusion frustrates your very POV. And you are really scraping the bottom of the barrel with your argument about Pincrete's "reject to support" anything other than your stiff-necked resolute one-word interjection. The rest of us are all flexible and are happy to go along with over 90% of the revisions that have been on the article these past 18 years, and talk about "democracy" is rich coming from you when you are the one and only editor ever to spew forth your revision. J.O was right. WP:CIR is an issue with you. Your English is not sufficient as you clearly do not know the meaning of some basic words and have difficulty in interpreting the claims of sources. --Coldtrack (talk) 19:34, 8 December 2022 (UTC)

Requesting closure
I saw this edit summary, and I think there might be some confusion. Anyone can Request closure. "Closure" in wiki-jargon means "write a summary of what the discussion already decided". The discussion is supposed to have finished before you request closure.

If your goal was "make them stop talking about this", then we don't really have a process for that, but if it's about an RFC, you can always explain your concern at Wikipedia talk:Requests for comment. WhatamIdoing (talk) 20:31, 19 February 2023 (UTC)

Hi Santasa99, this article is quite poorly written in places; please review my edits and make corrections if I misinterpret anything. The text may have been machine-translated at some stage.

On another note; could you please enable section-level editing of your talk page? It's awkward for editors to scroll past every other section. Cheers,  Baffle☿gab  06:32, 21 February 2023 (UTC)


 * Thanks Baff, I will have more time later today, and will try to do what you requested - is that timeframe ok? In the meantime, I'll try to enable section edit. ౪ Santa ౪  99°  10:01, 21 February 2023 (UTC)
 * Thanks, no problem, I'm concerned I may misread some important fact and rewrite it incorrectly, so I feel a review will be useful, so if you note anything wrong please do correct or revert me. I couldn't find any code in your talk page that disables sections so it may be one of the templates causing it... anyway your page is quite short at the moment so it's not much of a problem for me. :) Cheers,  Baffle☿gab  19:03, 21 February 2023 (UTC)
 * I will check the prose during the night [here :-) ], and if something is misread or misconstrued, I will correct it and ask you to double-check it if I'm not sure about my correction. Yeah, I was just thinking to ask you how to enable section-editing button, because I couldn't find any option in Preferences, and I also checked source to see if I introduced some code, but to no avail. I will ask someone tech. savvy at tech.tea-house how to resolve this issue. Thanks, and I'll catch up with you later. ౪ Santa ౪  99°  22:15, 21 February 2023 (UTC)
 * Thanks, it's fixed now, I'm seeing the edit link on the sections. :) Cheers,  Baffle☿gab  00:45, 22 February 2023 (UTC)

Bosnian genocide denial

 * Hi Santasa99, I'll take this since nobody else is game... I'm sure there's no chance at all of biased editing going on here. Any edit wars or other nonsense and I'm out. Cheers,  Baffle☿gab  20:46, 21 March 2023 (UTC)
 * @Baffle gab1978 I can tell from History, with as much certainty as you could, that article is pretty stable, while in regard to "biased editing" I too hope that article has stayed at least within the GA standards for now. Pincrete is said to be copy-editing article for some time (SpookyTwenty), but, although I have full confidence in Pincrete, he is involved, and I think it would be preferable if uninvolved editor with great copy-editing rep to finish the job if we are to ever nominate article for FA. Hopefully you will be up to the task, so thank you, I really appreciate it. ౪ Santa ౪  99°  21:46, 21 March 2023 (UTC)
 * Thanks for your confidence; I didn't mean to imply any bias on yours or any other editors' behalf. I have checked the history and yes, it is currently stable, but I've previously triggered one or more other editors to pop up and revert for no apparent reason (or because they didn't like or understand my edits), causing edit conflicts. If I do make a silly mistake or misinterpret something and I'm rightfully reverted or corrected, that's fine. Anyway I'll see how it goes; it might go well with no problems. Thanks for your faith in my work; I hope I can live up to it! :) Cheers,  Baffle☿gab  22:42, 21 March 2023 (UTC)
 * Thanks, Baff. If that editor was Pincrete, I am certain that he just needs to see what is going on (copy-editing) and he will be easier to work with all the way through. And, yes, just like in any copy-editing case there may be some misunderstandings on what was supposed to stand in a sentence or para, in context, etc., but we will be in touch, hopefully including Pincrete, as you near the end of your sweep and if some things should be rephrased or not. So, good luck, and feel free to ping me for whatever reason. ౪ Santa ౪  99°  00:54, 22 March 2023 (UTC)
 * I wasn't referring above to Pincrete, who most likely knows better than to act in that manner. I was referring to multiple editors who I won't name (and can't without trawling the depths of my talk archives). On another note, I've moved some cited text that failed verification to the talk page; feel free to review. Cheers,  Baffle☿gab  05:05, 23 March 2023 (UTC)
 * OK, as soon as I get some spare time, probably later today/tonight. Thanks Baffle, talk to you later. ౪ Santa ౪  99°  05:48, 23 March 2023 (UTC)

I've now finished my copy-edit; I'll leave a few suggestions for improvements on the article's talk page. Good luck with the article and cheers,  Baffle☿gab  05:30, 25 March 2023 (UTC)

Hajdučka Republika Mijata Tomića
I've restored this to the List of micronations page, because (1) there are many more than two people involved, and (2) while its page deletion is under discussion, that has not yet reached any consensus. – •Raven .talk 21:47, 6 April 2023 (UTC)


 * Look, I still like the idea, and I tried before to find a way and give article some credence after it barely survived AfD twice, but all boils down to a satire and the family business. It is not a serious local community effort, say, expressed in form of protest against some issue. I know that the hotelier raised the idea as a sort of protest against municipal blunder with providing an electricity, that he gave his best to promote the idea with posters and variety of materials, even printed passports and currency, but it's all for fun and advertising purpose - yes, according to primary source, every person that decide to eat at the restaurant is eligible for "citizenship" and will receive a "passport", but there is a difference between real micronation and this thing (by the way I think that our list-article on micronations is also based on misconception on what constitute "micronation"). What happens, happens. ౪ Santa ౪  99°  22:11, 6 April 2023 (UTC)

 * Crazy - I wanted to contact you this morning but I was distracted so it slipped my mind, completely. Anyway, now it looks as it should. (The whole idea to create this redirect came from a blocked Zoupan without any logic and reason whatsoever behind it.) I hastened my hand in attempt to fix it, but mostly I was confused and wasn't sure how exactly to interpret some parts of WP:RM#CM and WP:SWAP, I did not pay enough attention on copy/paste issues explained. Later I turned my attention on parts where copy/paste is talked about, so I am now a bit more aware of the problem(s) and how to avoid them.

 * Before you pasted this template on my TP you should have read the instructions that come with the template and advise not to do this if you can assume that the editor already knows that they edit in scope under ARBCOM sanctions, and it should have been very clear to you that I am well aware that the topic area in which I contribute is under ARBEE. It is particularly inappropriate to this is in order to kind of retaliate in same manner. ౪ Santa ౪  99°  14:00, 27 May 2023 (UTC)

Notice of edit warring noticeboard discussion
Hello. This message is being sent to inform you that there is currently a discussion involving you at Administrators' noticeboard/Edit warring regarding a possible violation of Wikipedia's policy on edit warring. Thank you. Johnbod (talk) 14:08, 27 May 2023 (UTC)

<div class="user-block uw-block" style="padding: 5px; margin-bottom: 0.5em; border: 1px solid #a9a9a9; background-color: #ffefd5; min-height: 40px"> You have been blocked from editing for a period of 60 hours for edit warring and violating the three-revert rule. Once the block has expired, you are welcome to make useful contributions. During a dispute, you should first try to discuss controversial changes and seek consensus. If that proves unsuccessful, you are encouraged to seek dispute resolution, and in some cases it may be appropriate to request page protection. If you think there are good reasons for being unblocked, please read the guide to appealing blocks, then add the following text at the bottom of your talk page:. Daniel Case (talk) 02:31, 28 May 2023 (UTC)

Inquiry
@Daniel Case would you mind giving me few inputs on my 60 hours block, before I consider appeal? I was kind of thinking, maybe, to appeal unless this inquiry dissuade me from it. ౪ Santa ౪ 99°  04:21, 28 May 2023 (UTC)


 * Well, I blocked you for 60 hours because the last time you did it, I blocked you for 36.
 * I have nothing to say about whether you appeal, per procedure. If another admin thinks that was too much, or that you didn't violate 3RR, they may unblock. Daniel Case (talk) 04:23, 28 May 2023 (UTC)
 * I did violate 3RR; I am fully responsible and regret it for being so reckless, but even more so for being so naive. What interest me is that you proceeded with a block despite reporting editor practically admitting taking me for a ride on those reverts - in his words in 3RR report: "I don't mind your "layout" changes too much" - so, he was edit-warring for nothing, while not actually minding my changes too much, all the while pressuring me on TP with unrelated justification for his unnecessary reverts; why on earth was he reverting them, and why on the pretext of something inconsequential and already dropped (he was reverting my edit constantly explaining it with dispute over non-existant section "See also" and dragging me down to it like this me, him, me, him) !? Before that he never, for instance, considered WP:REVONLY; I initiated TP discussion but he never matched his responses to evoked points, and even completely missed the point in his post in report ("other editor") - it's like went in one ear and out the other. It's not mine to say if he was deliberately avoiding to pinpoint what was actually in dispute or it's maybe how he comprehends the world around him, but either way it was a lost thread every time which never gave a chance to a resolution. So, why those reverts, and then report, why it did not boomeranged under all these circumstances (he had no more reason to make fourth revert even before I did), and so on. ౪ Santa ౪  99°  06:04, 28 May 2023 (UTC)


 * Hello 331dot, and thanks for the review. My remark "I usually successfully restrain myself and avoid the trap of edit-warring" means that as long as it is under my control I do not fall into this trap, which in practice means that in my 15 long years of participation in WP:ARBEE scope I have never been blocked once, until some six months ago when the same admin imposed my first-ever block without giving me opportunity to offer any kind of response, but one which was ultimately lifted on my appeal. So, now there is another unknown in this case (to me, at least, because I tried to find similar situation but failed), and that's being the situation where admin uses (their) earlier successfully appealed block to extend on second - is that even proper procedure, and so on. Also, if it doesn't bother you too much, I would really appreciate to hear your opinion on, not exactly boomerang, but the fact that reverting between two of us was not one-sided and that reporting editor breached the 3RR some 20 minutes before I did - if I am not mistaken, in cases such as this, it usually goes both ways, whether it's blocking or a just warning, the sanction is extended to both participants. On closer and fair inspection, what really differentiates us, except that the reporting editor was faster and more motivated to make a report. Anyhow, thanks, I appreciate your review.-- ౪ Santa ౪ 99°  14:30, 29 May 2023 (UTC)
 * I've placed your comment outside the block review; if you used the reply function, that shouldn't be done in such cases. 331dot (talk) 14:31, 29 May 2023 (UTC)
 * I understand, sorry, honest mistake. ౪ Santa ౪  99°  14:35, 29 May 2023 (UTC)
 * I may comment more later, I'm not presently in a position too. 331dot (talk) 16:16, 29 May 2023 (UTC)
 * No worries, 331dot, there's no rush. This was always about a principle and a feeling, and maybe it just my own personal feeling, that the case is at least to some extent bizarre and unusual, and it is not pleasant to be seemingly singled out in such a situation - it can be humiliating. In any other situation, I wouldn't even pursue appeals, if it was about me being some kind of edit-warrior and if this was some kind of big edit-war over something extremely sensitive. It's a very bizarre confrontation over a trivial matter, it's wasn't one-sided, and it's completely bewildering. When you get the time and if you are willing, your inputs would of course be greatly appreciated - there are admins who would be unwilling to extend the most basic courtesy of offering any kind of response, let alone an informative comment, so any response is most welcome. ౪ Santa ౪  99°  16:59, 29 May 2023 (UTC)
 * So I can quickly say that a point in your favor was admitting that you violated 3RR. But when an admin(well, I at least) reviews an unblock request for edit warring, there are usually two things we look for:
 * admitting it occurred (which you did)
 * telling how you will avoid edit warring in the future, usually by describing how you will handle editing disputes. You admitted that you failed to restrain yourself- which is fine, as we're humans and not perfect- but in order to be convinced the disruption of edit warring will end, I need to know what steps you will take to better avoid warring. That could be dispute resolution measures, avoiding topic areas where you might be prone to edit warring, things like that.
 * There are usually two things that should not happen in a request:
 * giving the entire detailed background. A brief synopsis is sufficient- as the exact details of a dispute do not usually matter. It might if you take further steps(see next point) but not in an unblock request.
 * telling how others edit warred with you and weren't treated the same. Only you can control your actions, and that's all your request should discuss. If you feel other users were not treated the same or you were treated unfairly, that should be discussed at WP:ANI once the block is over/removed.
 * I hope this helps you. You are welcome to make another request for someone else to review. 331dot (talk) 20:36, 29 May 2023 (UTC)
 * Nah, this block will expire before anyone tries to review it. My attention was anyway directed on the arbitrariness of how things went through with Daniel twice, which obviously can't be addressed through personal experience, etc. Rather, I owe you a thanks for the effort you put in and the comprehensive explanation, I really appreciate it. Only, I didn't say, or at least it was not my intention to say that I can't refrain from edit-warring, I don't know how you came to understand my remarks in that way, but I can't rule out my English language limitation in that sense perhaps; I wanted to send a message that would say exactly the opposite - my best recipe for handling disputes is my experience going through the pitfalls of the Balkan scope under WP:ARBEE for15 long years without putting myself in a situation to be blocked for edit-warring, and that my first block came in December by the same admin, but it was lifted on my appeal, but not on lenience ground but rather on extreme circumstances (meatpuppetry). Thanks, and take care. ౪ Santa ౪  99°  22:11, 29 May 2023 (UTC)
 * @331dot would you be kind to shed some more light, specifically on this suggestion about ANI you mentioned (last line under 2.above), wouldn't such a discussion necessarily involve a critical assessment of the admin's ruling or even judgement, would that be out of ANI scope, or would that be a proper forum then, and so on? If I would, say, decide to open an ANI, I would certainly like to avoid any unnecessary fuss on mistaken scope and object of ANI. Our guidelines and policies are sometimes one thing and our practices, sometimes, quite another. ౪ Santa ౪  99°  15:17, 30 May 2023 (UTC)
 * ANI is where issues regarding user behavior- including admins- are discussed. This will involve reviewing the actions of all involved(including you) to see if policies were violated or applied improperly. 331dot (talk) 15:41, 30 May 2023 (UTC)
 * Thanks, I appreciate it. I know that we have some separate forum(s) for discussion about admins (WP:XRVPURPOSE), and if I decade to discuss what happened between editors, it would be unavoidable to mention admin's action, so it's better to be safe than sorry. Thanks. ౪ Santa ౪  99°  16:43, 30 May 2023 (UTC)
