Disambiguation link notification for April 20
Hi. Thank you for your recent edits. Wikipedia appreciates your help. We noticed though that when you edited Peter Luger, you added a link pointing to the disambiguation page German. Such links are almost always unintended, since a disambiguation page is merely a list of "Did you mean..." article titles. Read the FAQ* Join us at the DPL WikiProject.

It's OK to remove this message. Also, to stop receiving these messages, follow these opt-out instructions. Thanks, DPL bot (talk) 09:52, 20 April 2017 (UTC)

 * I sorry I do not agree with this merge there are plenty of reliable sources. Valoem  talk  contrib  04:15, 16 May 2017 (UTC)
 * You restored unreliable sources and unsourced content. Please read the section below. QuackGuru  ( talk ) 04:21, 16 May 2017 (UTC)
 * Where? Also thanks for letting me know something I wrote was bold merge., I'll replace again source if needed, but I'm not see anything issues. Valoem  talk  contrib  04:30, 16 May 2017 (UTC)
 * You didn't notice any problem with this edit? QuackGuru  ( talk ) 04:43, 16 May 2017 (UTC)
 * It appears advert vandalized the article I restored the original version I wrote. Valoem   talk  contrib  05:18, 16 May 2017 (UTC)
 * I tagged the spam you accidently restored. QuackGuru  ( talk ) 14:23, 16 May 2017 (UTC)
 * Okay we can start a formal merge process. Doc James  (talk · contribs · email) 15:11, 16 May 2017 (UTC)

That was a copyright violation by copying text from Wikipedia without attribution. I will undo your edit and do it again. QuackGuru ( talk ) 21:21, 18 May 2017 (UTC)
 * Where? Please fix. Thanks. Valoem  talk  contrib  21:22, 18 May 2017 (UTC)
 * Undo the merge and then it will be fixed or I will undo and redo. QuackGuru  ( talk ) 21:23, 18 May 2017 (UTC)
 * Okay done, but please readded the additional sources I added. Valoem  talk  contrib  21:24, 18 May 2017 (UTC)
 * I will read it shortly without the sources that failed verification and the minor copyright violation and without adding two images. One image is enough for juul. It would be better to add an image of a Pax device. The draft I mentioned will also be added to the page. QuackGuru  ( talk ) 21:26, 18 May 2017 (UTC)
 * Ok, two picture look to cluttered. I am sure those are reliable sources. Valoem  talk  contrib  21:35, 18 May 2017 (UTC)

 * Done with merge and expanding page. I fixed the ones in the draft a while ago. QuackGuru  ( talk ) 21:50, 18 May 2017 (UTC)
 * The article is actually better and more descriptive. Nice job! Valoem  talk  contrib  22:44, 18 May 2017 (UTC)
 * That's not what they say for my editing at the other vaping pages. Later on there will be fireworks at the other pages. I am patient. If I have to wait a year or two then then is fine with me. QuackGuru  ( talk ) 22:52, 18 May 2017 (UTC)

The Dark Tapes film
I am not sure how to use this talk feature. I BEG you, PLEASE do NOT put spoilers for "The Dark Tapes" film. You can have a full plot synopsis without spoilers. I am sorry, but people check out WIKI pages BEFORE seeing the film. PLEASE do not include the spoilers, I know for a FACT they look at wiki before watching the film. You will entirely spoil the movie for everyone. I beg you, please revert to my changes or just remove it from wiki. PLEASE. It ruins years of work, spoils the film, I beg you, please revert to my chances without the spoilers. Sorry, I dont know how to sign this. The Dark Tapes was done by three people mostly. The entire strength of the film is not knowing the spoilers. Please, we beg you, switch our wiki to spoiler free, we are not a big studio, people only find the film through word of mouth and often research the film via google and will read wiki before seeing the film. PLEASE switch. — Preceding unsigned comment added by HorrorMaster (talk • contribs) 23:37, 11 June 2017 (UTC) 05:35, 13 June 2017 (UTC) Please, I am begging you, you do not HAVE to put up spoilers. I am fully aware that most people do on wiki. 4 years of work and $65,000 of my own money went into this money. The only reason to watch it is for the twists and turns. Give a play by play playout with the spoilers included adds nothing for people who have seen it. PLEASE, PLEASE PLEASE give some consideration to what I asking. Can't you just switch it to what I corrected? I understand you can put spoilers, it does not mean you HAVE to. I wont make a cent on the movie as is, I just want to break-even. PLEASE. Surely wikipedia does not exist to take money from creators of films. This is exactly what the listing does. PLEASE. — Preceding unsigned comment added by HorrorMaster (talk • contribs)
 * User:HorrorMaster, all the content is unsourced. Why should unsourced content be restored anywhere on Wikipedia? QuackGuru  ( talk ) 15:58, 13 June 2017 (UTC)
 * , There is an exception with plot summary in film, WP:PLOTSUM (all FA film articles have unsourced plot summary and here is the guildline FILMPLOT, Since the film is the primary source and the infobox provides details about the film, citing the film explicitly in the plot summary's section is not necessary.), however if HorrorMaster actually works for the studio and can prove it I won't revert. <font color="DarkSlateGray">Valoem  talk  <font color="Green">contrib  19:57, 13 June 2017 (UTC)

I am the creator/writer/producer/director of the film. If you can guide me what to do to prove myself, let me know, or if you need posters and or anything added, please let me know. — Preceding unsigned comment added by HorrorMaster (talk • contribs) 21:35, 13 June 2017 (UTC)

Tsoukernik
“Hi, I’m sad to report that I’m not Leon, (I could use some helicopters) just a neophyte wikiperson who seems to have chosen a tricky interest to edit. I removed this section because the language seems biased and doesn’t mention that Tsang and Kirk happen to know each other, that there’s some mystery around where Kirk got so much money from in the first place when he’s known to have lost an awful lot, and why Tsang would be lending money to someone who clearly didn’t need it? Curious. And I haven’t even mentioned the Triads. Also, though sources may exist they hardly amount to the New York Times. Reporting on speculation amounts to tabloid sources in my book, but I’m learning that the process here is down to the shifting sands of individuals’ whims.” Hey ho. we stumble on. — Preceding unsigned comment added by Royston McGee (talk • contribs) 19:18, 25 August 2017 (UTC)
 * , you have not shown a "tricky interest", but an account with the single intention of promoting Leon Tsoukernik and his affiliations. Sources include CardPlayer, HighStakesDB, and PokerNews have written the story the exact way it is written here. I have not found any sources regarding Tsang as being a Triad member nor is there speculation from any sources of Matt Kirk's net worth. If there are sources this is Wikipedia, and you can add them, but they must be reliable. Your argument "why Tsang would be lending money to someone who clearly didn’t need it" is the silliest argument and suggests direct affiliation with subject in question. People don't have cash on hand, at the time Tsoukernik had a good reputation winning multiple awards in poker. High stakes players loan money all the time. In this case it was Tsoukernik who started a credit game, unfortunately sources says he only pays what he wants and not what is owed, unfortunate indeed. <font color="DarkSlateGray">Valoem  talk  <font color="Green">contrib  20:11, 25 August 2017 (UTC)

I will probably !vote for deletion. Only one source is cited and it's purely local. A story like this needs to have some evidence of national-level attention (I suspect it will eventually attain that, but we can't use that as reason to keep). Daniel Case (talk) 23:30, 26 January 2018 (UTC)

Personally, I'd put the DoB back in. If it is unreliable then the article can explain why. Unless there is a better, more accurate, source for it that says differently?

It's really not up to us, as Wikipedia editors, to cast doubt on what someone says about themselves unless there are good sources that do this. Particularly when it is as relatively trivial as a birth date. It really makes little difference to who he is, or what he has (allegedly) done. -- Escape Orbit (Talk) 12:45, 29 January 2018 (UTC)

Speedy deletion nomination of User:Valoem/Maiden Media Group


A tag has been placed on User:Valoem/Maiden Media Group, requesting that it be speedily deleted from Wikipedia. This has been done under section G11 of the criteria for speedy deletion, because the page seems to be unambiguous advertising which only promotes a company, group, product, service, person, or point of view and would need to be fundamentally rewritten in order to become encyclopedic. Please read the guidelines on spam and FAQ/Organizations for more information.

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.

 * , depending on whether everything was merged, this could be a case for deletion review. But it will be more practical to imply merge in the additional people--at least all of those that do not have a source. If the source is only a book, without a page number, there might be some challenge, so it would be clearest to try to find them, at least as a first step. I think they are somewhere in the edit history of the merged article. If you can't find them, let me know.  DGG ( talk ) 21:02, 17 March 2018 (UTC)

Goat people AFD close
Hey, uh... regarding Articles for deletion/Goat people, would you mind elaborating? "Keep" just amounts to throwing out the views of half of the commenters: 7-6 in favour of keeping (disregarding the fact that a number of "keep" or "rename" comments didn't present coherent arguments or misquoted policy) is at best "No consensus, default to keep". Hijiri 88 ( 聖やや ) 02:35, 27 March 2018 (UTC)
 * , I believe sources provided by Cunard specifically addressed the issues presented at AfD since AfD is technically not a vote. I have elaborated the keep with a possible rename. The second source provided Field Guide to the Little People: A Curious Journey Into the Hidden Realm of Elves, Faeries, Hobgoblins & Other Not-so-mythical Creatures states "The most famous of these are the Panes, Satyrs, and Sileni of classical Greece", which suggests the article is not synth. It appears that clean up is better than deletion or merging based on policy based rationale. Do you have an issues? If you do insist I don't mind changing it to no consensus defaulting to keep, but I do believe the sources provided lean this toward keep. <b style="color: DarkSlateGray;">Valoem</b> <b style="color: blue;">talk</b> <b style="color: Green;">contrib</b> 15:52, 27 March 2018 (UTC)
 * I agree with Spartaz, and will add that the sources cited in the close rationale are not independent and objective. The text and especially the forewords of Field Guide to the Little People: A Curious Journey Into the Hidden Realm of Elves, Faeries, Hobgoblins & Other Not-so-mythical Creatures and Animal Dreaming: The Spiritual and Symbolic Language of the Australasian Animals explicitly argue that paranormal creatures are real. - LuckyLouie (talk) 17:03, 27 March 2018 (UTC)
 * I understand that you have been on an anti-fringe movement, however the sources provided are published secondary sources, I would be more than willing to see what Hijiri88 opinion is here as to how to proceed, a no consensus close is not an objection I have. Hijiri88 asked only for an elaboration, which I am more than happy to expand, there are additional sources which are can be provided, on top of that the source Animal Dreaming: The Spiritual and Symbolic Language of the Australasian Animals clearly states this is mythological. Also your claim that the first source suggesting these are real, though I am not seeing evidence of this, it does not suggest the source is not independent. Are you saying that Field Guide to the Little People: A Curious Journey Into the Hidden Realm of Elves, Faeries, Hobgoblins & Other Not-so-mythical Creatures is the creator of this myth? <b style="color: DarkSlateGray;">Valoem</b> <b style="color: blue;">talk</b> <b style="color: Green;">contrib</b> 17:13, 27 March 2018 (UTC)
 * Insinuations that I'm part of some nefarious "movement" won't gain you any traction here. There are many reliable academic sources published on the study of mythology. The two sources you have given as a closing rationale are not independent of the belief in paranormal creatures, and can't be considered an authoritative source of fact about how mythical creatures are categorized. I'm not sure how anyone can read the forewords contained in both of those books and miss the arguments for why readers should believe in the supernatural realm. Again, there's a good chance higher quality sources are available, i.e. scholarly studies of mythology by objective academics. - LuckyLouie (talk) 17:39, 27 March 2018 (UTC)
 * Not sure how you came to the claim of "nefarious" movement, only that you have a history of bias against fringe topics including reverting time slip against consensus because another editor added fringe information. Also your explanation does not mean the source is not independent of the subject and there are no issues with the source Animal Dreaming: The Spiritual and Symbolic Language of the Australasian Animals and here are additional sources The Mythology of Grimm: The Fairy Tale and Folklore Roots of the Popular TV Show, but yes there are high quality sources regarding this myth in fact another editor posted the Chinese myth in the discussion with this source here.

 * @Valoem Just a reminder. Your personal opinions, e.g. I understand that you have been on an anti-fringe movement and you have a history of bias against fringe topics, are not appropriate here per WP:TALKNO. - LuckyLouie (talk) 18:03, 27 March 2018 (UTC)
 * Then you have misinterpreted the context which I was speaking, in no way did I intend the comment to be interpreted as a personal attack.

 * I don't know anything about goat people or most of the other issues in this discussion, but I happen to still have this user talk page on my watchlist, so I'll comment. A non-admin closure is not appropriate in this case, because the outcome is a close call and controversial. (The fact that it's a close call is obvious, because you apparently changed your mind about the outcome.) See WP:Non-admin closure.

Deletion review
Hi, I'd like to ask you to consider undoing your closure of this discussion, and let an administrator handle it.

 * For what it's worth, my first thought on seeing this was the same. But, the more I looked at the discussion (which, by my count, I made 7:3), I was OK with the WP:NAC.  Our instructions talk about, cases where the outcome is patently obvious or where a discussion has not been closed in good time.  Even if this doesn't meet the patently obvious clause, it does meet, not been closed in a good time.  Maybe we want to re-word that to be and instead of or?

State casino lists
Hello, what are you trying to achieve with the lists of casinos by state? That information is better integrated into overview articles where it can be presented with more context about the scope and history of gambling in the state. In the case of a few of the articles that you demerged, I wrote the "Gambling in X" article specifically to provide better context to eliminate the need for an anemic list article. Also, in states with just 2 or 3 casinos, why would you want to present them as a list, when the policy is generally to prefer WP:PROSE. Toohool (talk) 06:26, 6 December 2018 (UTC)
 * , There have been many templates and most states should maintain such a list as historically they did. I think it makes it easier to see casinos by state in that way. I think 3 or more should have lists. I agree if it is two probably just merge with gambling in that state. <b style="color: DarkSlateGray;">Valoem</b> <b style="color: blue;">talk</b> <b style="color: Green;">contrib</b> 08:08, 7 December 2018 (UTC)
 * What do you mean by "there have been many templates"? History is not a reason to do things - the "history" of these state casino lists only exists because one editor wanted to split up List of casinos in the United States years ago. "Easier" is not really the right criterion either; as an encyclopedia, we should strive to cover topics with the depth and context that they merit, rather than splicing out topics into a vapid "quick facts" format. If a reader wants to see the 12 casinos in Oregon, why wouldn't we want to put that list alongside information about how those casinos came to exist and what other major forms of gambling those casinos compete against? Toohool (talk) 08:38, 7 December 2018 (UTC)
 * It is completely reasonable to merge the small ones, but for states like PA, NJ, LV or any with an extensive list, I disagree. <b style="color: DarkSlateGray;">Valoem</b> <b style="color: blue;">talk</b> <b style="color: Green;">contrib</b> 17:03, 7 December 2018 (UTC)
 * Agreed that larger lists like Nevada, Oklahoma, Mississippi, etc. should remain as separate articles. The NJ and PA lists are anomalous in that they're currently bloated with stuff that shouldn't be in there (in PA, you included the list of off-track betting parlors, which are definitely not casinos; in NJ, there is a list of non-notable online casinos, as well as an unnecessary list of former names of casinos). With proper trimming, those lists are better off being merged I believe. Toohool (talk) 03:20, 8 December 2018 (UTC)

File:Ting Tsung Chao.png
Hi, I'm RonBot, a script that checks new non-free file uploads. I have found that the subject image that you recently uploaded was more than 5% in excess of the Non-free content guideline size of 100,000 pixels. I have tagged the image for a standard reduction, which (for jpg/gif/png/svg files) normally happens within a day. Please check the reduced image, and make sure that the image is not excessively corrupted. Other files will be added to Category:Wikipedia non-free file size reduction requests for manual processing. There is a full seven-day period before the original oversized image will be hidden; during that time you might want to consider editing the original image yourself (perhaps an initial crop to allow a smaller reduction or none at all). A formula for the calculation of the desired size can be found at WP:Image resolution, along with instructions on how to tag the image in the rare cases that it requires an oversized image (typically about 0.2% of non-free uploads are tagged as necessarily oversized). Please contact the bot owner if you have any questions, or you can ask them at Wikipedia talk:Non-free content. See User:RonBot for info on how to not get these messages.

E-cig brands
I think both MarkTen and LOGIC (electronic cigarette) are not notable. MarkTen has gone out of business and the MarkTen e-cigs are no longer available. Rather than start a deletion discussion I thought both could be redirected. For MakTen I would redirect it to List of electronic cigarette and e-cigarette liquid brands. For LOGIC (electronic cigarette) I would redirect it to Japan Tobacco International and mention it under the Brands section. Vuse can be merged into R. J. Reynolds Vapor Company. <b style="color: #e34234;">QuackGuru</b> ( talk ) 20:21, 4 October 2019 (UTC)
 * I think Logic and Vuse are notable they can be found through the US. I remember seeing MarkTen as well, but I haven't seen that one in a long time I agree with the merge for MarkTen, but I would prefer the other two remain as stand alone articles. <b style="color: DarkSlateGray;">Valoem</b> <b style="color: blue;">talk</b> <b style="color: Green;">contrib</b> 22:22, 8 October 2019 (UTC)
 * A redirect to List of electronic cigarette and e-cigarette liquid brands for MarkTen without a merge.
 * A redirect to Japan Tobacco International and discuss LOGIC under the Brands section.
 * A redirect to R. J. Reynolds Vapor Company and discuss Vuse in the main article. Vuse is part of R. J. Reynolds Vapor Company.
 * There is not enough content for splinter articles and LOGIC and Vuse are not notable enough for stand alone articles. Eventually LOGIC and Vuse will be nominated for deletion. <b style="color: #e34234;">QuackGuru</b> ( talk ) 22:46, 8 October 2019 (UTC)

Regarding Removal of Template from 'Death of Kobe Bryant'
At the moment there is no article for the helicopter crash. So, for the time being, shouldn't the template remain? TheEpicGhosty (talk) 00:18, 27 January 2020 (UTC)
 * There is an article 2020 Island Express Sikorsky S-76B crash, but it has been redirected and protected without discussion, therefore we need to wait until the outcome. <b style="color: DarkSlateGray;">Valoem</b> <b style="color: blue;">talk</b> <b style="color: Green;">contrib</b> 00:21, 27 January 2020 (UTC)

You can't simply remove the template unilaterally on an article like this, you must seek consensus on the talk page. John F. Kennedy Jr. plane crash exists and has an infobox. Hemiauchenia (talk) 00:29, 27 January 2020 (UTC)
 * Yes you can same as the 2020 Island Express Sikorsky S-76B crash was redirect and protected without consensus or even a discussion. The discussion is about moving the information regarding the crash to the article about the crash as well as the fact that this article is about Kobe not the crash. <b style="color: DarkSlateGray;">Valoem</b> <b style="color: blue;">talk</b> <b style="color: Green;">contrib</b> 00:37, 27 January 2020 (UTC)
 * Just because another decision was made unilaterally doesn't mean this one should be, multiple users have reverted you and since you have declined to do so I have added a section at Talk:Death_of_Kobe_Bryant on the topic. Hemiauchenia (talk) 00:56, 27 January 2020 (UTC)
 * There are two editors who opposed this and two editors in favor of have a separate article on the crash itself. I've also been thanked for removing the template in favor of its inclusion on the crash article. <b style="color: DarkSlateGray;">Valoem</b> <b style="color: blue;">talk</b> <b style="color: Green;">contrib</b> 01:39, 27 January 2020 (UTC)
 * I was also thanked for restoring the infobox. I think we should agree to disagree for now as the current situation is chaotic and nothing will properly be resolved for days. Hemiauchenia (talk) 01:46, 27 January 2020 (UTC)

Confused
There are only two articles, Kobe Bryant and Death of Kobe Bryant. 2020 Island Express Sikorsky S-76B crash is a redirect. Whatever the title of the death article eventually ends up being, it will have the aircraft incident infobox, because it is pertinent. Abductive (reasoning) 01:11, 27 January 2020 (UTC)
 * , I believe the protection of the redirect is improper. The correct thing to do IMO is to unprotect then expand and add the infobox to 2020 Island Express Sikorsky S-76B crash. Kobe is not the only person who passed away, a vast majority of articles on helicopter crash do not involve famous individuals, this will eventually be split. But it does appear to me that there is a consensus which favors an article focusing on the crash including the renaming of the article to Kobe Bryant plane crash similar to JFK Jr's page. Split the page now while the event is current is best method for expansion. <b style="color: DarkSlateGray;">Valoem</b> <b style="color: blue;">talk</b> <b style="color: Green;">contrib</b> 01:28, 27 January 2020 (UTC)
 * You are not considering the needs of the readers. The infobox needs to be there now, no matter what the articles will look like in the future. Abductive  (reasoning) 02:05, 27 January 2020 (UTC)
 * The needs of the reader would be best realized with a full separate article about the crash. We cannot include details of the technicalities of the accident in an article about the death of Kobe. Adding the infobox may prevent the split which would be determinantal to reader. These are long term considerations. Unfortunately many editors in general on this encyclopedia care more about "winning" then what is actually best for the reader. After being here so far long, I've seen this time and time again where editors merge content against consensus and then tout how they were "right" because editors lose interest over time. I know you are not doing this, but these things do happen and the goal is to prevent any individualist goals. <b style="color: DarkSlateGray;">Valoem</b> <b style="color: blue;">talk</b> <b style="color: Green;">contrib</b> 02:16, 27 January 2020 (UTC)
 * I have found that split/forked articles lose readership non-linearly. And those details are what interest a great many people. "The Death of ..." must explain the death. I'm not even clear what else would be in such an article, maybe an execrable "Reactions" section? Abductive  (reasoning) 02:52, 27 January 2020 (UTC)
 * Death of notable individuals should include information about the incident as well as immediate and lasting impact. For example, the Death of Michael Jackson would include an investigation section as he was the only/primary victim. Because there are multiple victims in this case a separate article is warrented. What we cannot do is include other victims unrelated to Kobe in article about his death, after all theses are not "Victims" of the Death of Kobe Bryant, but victims of the 2020 helicopter crash, am I making sense here? <b style="color: DarkSlateGray;">Valoem</b> <b style="color: blue;">talk</b> <b style="color: Green;">contrib</b> 02:59, 27 January 2020 (UTC)
 * I understand your premise that a separate article on the crash is necessary. But until there is one, blackmailing the readers—and editors who care about the readers—by weakening the Death of Kobe Bryant article is diametrically opposed to what Wikipedia stands for. Abductive  (reasoning) 04:59, 27 January 2020 (UTC)
 * You must be confused, removing unrelated information strengthens the article and moving that information to the proper article strengthens the encyclopedia as a whole. The editors who favor the splitting of two article as quickly as possible are the editor who actually care about the readers therefore editors who prevent the splitting of two separate articles are in fact "blackmailing" the readers as you said. Policy dictates we should and must have separate articles. The strongest editors are the ones who provide the proper information to the readers without bias. You've been on Wikipedia long enough to know about Wikienvy, these are the editors who are not here to build an encyclopedia, but to "win" an argument. Let's take a look at Diversified technique and other fringe science articles. Everyday these articles have information removed for a merge. The editors who do so are certainly not here for the viewers, but because they do not want fringe science on an encyclopedia they feel should only focus on the subjects which they devoted most of their life to. Both Octomom and Snooki were nominated despite blatantly passing WP:GNG. Some editors do not like the fact certain people pass GNG when they themselves do not, the best example is Günter Bechly who clearly passed GNG when he focus on evolution, but "lost favor" with editors when he began to believe in intelligent design. I am the editor who had UFO sightings in outer space restored. Those who favored deletion were unable to cite any kind of policy for deletion. I've been fighting for the viewers since day one and what I see here is an attempt to merge a notable crash which killed nine people into an article solely about Kobe Bryant. In order to prevent this we cannot merge the information because the initial editors who favored the merge will argue that the information is already here and there is no need for a split in order to maintain their "victory". This is what hurts the viewers the most. Please do make it clear that I am not suggesting the editors involved in this topic have this intention, only historically these things tend to happen and in this case leaving unrelated information out can prevent this. <b style="color: DarkSlateGray;">Valoem</b> <b style="color: blue;">talk</b> <b style="color: Green;">contrib</b> 05:28, 27 January 2020 (UTC)

The first known outbreak of the Spanish Flu was in Allied Armies. The origin of the strain is unknown but the first known outbreak was within Allied Armies.

The Federal Republic of Yugoslavia and State Union of Serbia and Montenegro were different political entities. However the wikipedia article for Serbia and Montenegro appears to include both countries. This is still inaccurate, and in the same way there are different articles for the Kingdom of Great Britain/Kingdom of Ireland, United Kingdom of Great Britain and Ireland, and United Kingdom of Great Britain and Northern Ireland. Or the Irish Free State and modern day Ireland (sometimes referred to as the Republic of Ireland). Although terroritery controlled by both states did not change, the actual nation did. From 2003 Montenegro was independent in all affairs aside from International Relations and defense. Serbia and Montenegro did not even use the same currency. — Preceding unsigned comment added by Azaan Habib (talk • contribs) 19:43, 29 July 2020 (UTC)

Editing Serbia and Montenegro
I have added my edits onto the article for Serbia and Montenegro instead. I have used near to seventy citations and am unable to find the grudge against the left you speak of. The original article only had around 24 citations. I do still think the FR Yugoslavia should have separate article, considering it was a completely different country except by land area, like the Irish Free State versus modern day Ireland.

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.
