Islamic State of Iraq and the Levant
Thank you for your edit. I am afraid the two footnotes you provided are not in the standard format for Wikipedia articles, so could you convert them using the following instructions, please? They are easy to follow.

Thanks. --P123ct1 (talk) 17:10, 24 August 2014 (UTC)


 * Thanks for doing those footnotes. The dates of those sources are missing, but don't worry, I'll put them in, unless you want to.  I think one of them didn't have a date, though, and the others were in very small print, so easy to miss.  I should point out that Wikipedia likes to use what it calls "reliable sources" for its citations, which means the major newspapers and journals in English, television networks like the BBC, CNN and NBC, news agencies like Reuters, Associated Press, Agence France-Presse, and sources like Al Arabiya and Al Jazeera. Two of your citations are Al Arabiya and Deutsche Welle (DW) and those are fine, but the other one would not be considered a "reliable source" (RS), as it is very right-wing.  If you could find an RS newspaper article, for example, which said the same thing it would be preferable.  The Wikipedia guidance on "reliable sources" is at WP:RS  if you want to know more.  Just one other point: what did you mean by "This announcement appears to be unilateral"?  Perhaps you could add a few words there to make that clearer.  The rest looks fine.  --P123ct1 (talk) 20:31, 24 August 2014 (UTC)

Your Revert on Islamic State of Iraq and the Levant
Hello. Please can you explain to me you revert of my edit today? In your response please specify whether you are an Arabic linguist, a native Arabic speaker or even fluent in Arabic... Thanks. Worldedixor (talk) 18:08, 25 August 2014 (UTC)


 * OOps, I see now that I made a mistake. I meant to edit the (then) current version, but I accidentally was linked to an older version where I edited something. Saawry.

Communpedia
I can't get in touch with the people who administer the software. In the meantime you might create an account and edit at http://communpedia.wikia.com/wiki/Main_Page I'll transfer any major edits to http://en.communpedia.org/Communpedia,_the_communist_encyclopedia You might try creating an account at http://kommynist.ru/Заглавная_страница and see if you can't attract their attention.
