Speedy deletion declined: Marina Keegan

Hello Plot Spoiler. I am just letting you know that I declined the speedy deletion of Marina Keegan, a page you tagged for speedy deletion, because of the following concern: This is a redirect, not an article. To delete it you have to take it to reidrects for discussion. Thank you. kelapstick^(bainuu) 20:34, 11 March 2014 (UTC)

I, Too, Am Harvard

Hi Plot Spoiler, I want to thank you for looking over the article. I don't agree with all of your edits, but they don't alter the content. I do think your interpretation of undue and lead in removing the quote is a little off in this case. The quote is from one of the signs in the multimedia project, which the article is about. Since the content of the signs is the center of what the article is about, it really can't be undue weight as I see it. Also, my thinking about including a quote in the lead was to give the reader part of the content of the project covered in the body. A couple of other signs are quoted in the body, but like adding an image, there is no sense in adding it twice. I just wanted to let you know my thoughts about the article. I am One of Many (talk) 17:42, 16 March 2014 (UTC)

Counterproductive

You already know that this content is not what Wikipedia regards as vandalism. Apart from being blocked, AndresHerutJaim also happens to be a racist extremist who writes things like "Leave Israel with all your fucking Arab ape friends" and "fucking mohammedan apes and baby-killers" in his spare time. You should help keep them away from content. Sean.hoyland - talk 17:20, 20 March 2014 (UTC)

Fair enough. It's also counterproductive to maintain grossly biased edits. Are you honestly asserting that labeling Regev as an "international spin-doctor" and "Chief Propagandist" of Israel in the first line of the article is not vandalistic or tantamount to vandalism?

Public executions in Iran

I had intended to suggest you nominate this new article for DYK, but it seems likely given the discussion on your talk page. Perhaps the hook should be "...that in 2013, Iran was only one of four countries known to have committed public executions?" or even better "...that as of 2013, Iran is one of of only four countries known to carry out public executions?"- Gilliam (talk) 03:57, 7 April 2014 (UTC)

Your edit

Your edits at 2013–14 Israeli–Palestinian peace talks are really confusing. Did you actually just make three edits because you forgot to add a personal attack into your first edit? Why did you delete so many source and add so much original research? Is Clintonbear one of your socks? If you do not revert I will ask at arbitration that you be indefinitly topic banned for this sole edit. Sepsis II (talk) 23:43, 20 April 2014 (UTC)

Best Site For UBP?

Thank You for your recent edit re the UBP & related UBP (disambiguation) - seems Union Bancaire Privée may *no longer* be the most prominent site based on Page Views for the last 30 days? - Highest-to-lowest Page Views for the last 30 days are as follows:

• Unnatural base pair = 25,662 views
• Unbipentium = 1,916 views
• Union Bancaire Privée = 1,066 views
• Ulusal Birlik Partisi = 571 views
• United Bermuda Party = 243 views

Perhaps reconsider your recent edit? - In any case - Enjoy! :) Drbogdan (talk) 00:02, 16 May 2014 (UTC)

@Plot Spoiler: Brief Followup - based on WP:PRIMARYTOPIC (at WP:Disambiguation), a Primary Topic for a listing of topics on a Disambiguation page may be best based on viewing statistics as presented above - accordingly, UBP should be redirected to Unnatural base pair (from the present Union Bancaire Privée - an "unqualified" term in this instance?) - please let me know if you have any objection to this redirection-change - Thanking you in advance for your reply - and - Enjoy! :) Drbogdan (talk) 14:30, 16 May 2014 (UTC)

You're right, apologies. Please go forth with these changes! Plot Spoiler (talk) 15:43, 16 May 2014 (UTC)

My one reservation though is that if you search UBP on google, the bank comes up first and nothing related to Unnatural base pair. "Unnatural base pair" appears to have a lot of page views because it is a subsection of "base pair" - not because it is a commonly searched topic. And is UBP really a known or common abbreviation of unnatural base pair? So, may be better to have UBP go to the disambiguation page in this case, if not stay at the bank. Plot Spoiler (talk) 15:45, 16 May 2014 (UTC)

 Done - @Plot Spoiler: Thank you *very much* for your reply - and comments - no problem whatsoever - yes, I *entirely* agree with you - "UBP" is now redirected to the "UBP (disambiguation)" page (instead of "Unnatural base pair") - Thanks again for your comments - and - Enjoy! :) Drbogdan (talk) 16:16, 16 May 2014 (UTC)

Not original research

Your revert at [2] cites original research, but this was based entirely on media sources. Doing another search, I see that the Secretary of the Interior has commented on this connection. Wnt (talk) 20:19, 9 June 2014 (UTC)

Only one of the three sources mentioned the Las Vegas shootout. It was therefore mainly original research. Plot Spoiler (talk) 21:42, 9 June 2014 (UTC)

Dear Plot Spoiler I removed an inaccurate information from Bahman Group web page two times. I should mention that not only the link to the source is not valid any more (check it please), the information provided in the source is not correct. Let me explain: Retirement Investment company of IRGC used to hold 24 % share of Bahmn Group which [according to Tehran Stock Exchanege data] is sold to Mehr & Ghadir Investment Companies. Moreover, IRGC never has made anything for Bahman Group. Please tell me if it is required to provide any more document to proof this fact.

October 2014

To enforce an arbitration decision, and for violating the 1RR on Israel-Palestine articles on the page Quds Day, you have been blocked from editing for a period of 24 hours. You are welcome to edit once the block expires; however, please note that the repetition of similar behavior may result in a longer block. If you believe this block is unjustified, please read the guide to appealing arbitration enforcement blocks and then appeal your block using the instructions there. HJ Mitchell | Penny for your thoughts? 16:23, 10 October 2014 (UTC)

---

Reminder to administrators: In March 2010, ArbCom adopted a procedure instructing administrators as follows: "No administrator may modify a sanction placed by another administrator without: (1) the explicit prior affirmative consent of the enforcing administrator; or (2) prior affirmative agreement for the modification at (a) AE or (b) AN or (c) ARCA (see "Important notes" [in the procedure]). Administrators modifying sanctions out of process may at the discretion of the committee be desysopped." Administrators who reverse this block without the clear authorisation described in that procedure will be summarily desysopped.

Apologies for the 1RR violation. It slipped my mind somehow. And since I can't edit any pages but my user page, could you please close the AE since I don't even have the ability to respond? Plot Spoiler (talk) 17:27, 10 October 2014 (UTC)

I invite you to a discussion

Hi. A discussion is taking place as to whether the article Gaza beach explosion (2006) should be moved to Israeli bombing of the Gaza beach (2006). I would like to know your opinion about this issue.--Mevarus (talk) 01:48, 5 November 2014 (UTC)

AE result

The outcome of the AE complaint is that you did violated the 1RR, and, had admins got to the bottom of the issue while it was still fresh, you probably would have been blocked for a short time. As it is, please consider this a strong caution to respect the 1RR and to be very careful to abide by it—partial reverts and reverts of edits made some time ago do count towards the 1RR. My advice would that, if in doubt as to whether it would violate the 1RR, don't revert. Please also note that reverting should not be a substitute for discussion; I strongly advise you to engage on talk pages and to rely on reverts as a last resort, not a first. Finally, please remember that if you feel that other editors are misconduting themselves (for example by violating the 1RR or by coordinating their reverts to game the restriction), you may file a complaint at AE for administrators to evaluate the conduct, but other editors' misconduct does not exempt you from the standards of decorum expected of editors in a controversial topic area. Hopefully a caution and words of advice will be sufficient, but you should be aware that if you come to the notice of administrators again, especially for 1RR violations, the result is unlikely to be as mild as a caution.

Hi. THanx for your input on the article. YOu reverted my changes. Someone has already reverted your revert. But i think you were not being fair, if you still have any problems with the sources, discuss on talk page before removing. I dont know how you can call The Nation (USA), International Business Times (USA), Democracy Now (USA), Press TV (Iran), Daily Star (Lebanon), Brasil247 (Brazil) all as unreliable? It shows you are not unbiased enough to edit this article. And also, i did not add any objective fact, rather that it is "also known as Shejaiya massacre", i think 6 links from 4 countries do prove that it was also called as such. In fact there are plenty other links too, but i havent mentioned bcz i think these 7 are enough to prove the point beyond any doubt. Thanx. Sohebbasharat (talk) 15:04, 11 March 2015 (UTC)

Death to America and your repeat deletion

You have twice deleted the following material from Death to America "some believe,This slogan was born due to inappropriate behavior and proceedings of U.S. administration toward Iran which result in Iranian's hatred of America." along with the following cite <ref>{{cite web|title=SEVEN THINGS YOU DIDN’T KNOW THE U.S. AND ITS ALLIES DID TO IRAN|url=https://firstlook.org/theintercept/2015/04/07/10-things-didnt-know-weve-done-iran/|website=firstlook|publisher=Firstlook|accessdate=13 April 2015}}</ref>. I disagree with your deletion. This is a content dispute, and should be discussed on the article talk page. Wikipedia is a collaborative project. The procedure when there is disagreement on content is to discuss, not repeatedly add or delete information that you may disagree with. An edit summary is not the way to come to a resolution. Please revert yourself, and make a case for the deletion on the article talk page. The material added by Yasin2015 is WP:NPOV; and brings some balance to the article. The source may not be of the highest quality, but there are certainly a large number of better sources available that make the same point.— Neonorange (talk) 19:52, 29 April 2015 (UTC)

Hi, Plot Spoiler. I've again removed your insertion of contentious or defamatory material about a living person. Your addition of this uncited content violates Wikipedia policy which states:

any material challenged or likely to be challenged must be explicitly attributed to a reliable, published source

In addition, you've been edit-warring to keep this challenged content on that Wikipedia page without providing a citation. That's another policy violation. You have not explicitly attributed that content to a high-quality reliable, published source, as required by policy. One of your edit summaries stated, "It's in his WP page". If it is, you are required to move that citation inline with the content you keep adding. I've looked at "his WP page", and do not see the required high-quality source citation there. Another edit summary of yours stated, "See also: Cambodian genocide denial". I've looked at that page, too, and do not see the required high-quality source citation there. Please be aware that simply typing "look at this Wikipedia page, or look at that Wikipedia page" in an edit summary does not meet our policy requirement of explicitly providing high-quality reliable sources for your comments about a living person.

By the way, I know that some detractors and critics have advanced personal opinions similar to yours, but as Wikipedia editors, we aren't supposed to propagate those contentious opinions or claims. Our WP:BLP policy prohibits it, so I hope you'll understand my concern. Properly sourced and cited assertions of fact are fine, however. I have no desire to join you in a revert war, so I'll be taking any future instances of adding uncited contentious material straight to WP:ANI. If you think I'm overlooking something, or would like to discuss the matter further, please let me know. Regards, Xenophrenic (talk) 00:38, 10 February 2016 (UTC)

Request about the User:MehrdadFR

Hello.

The User:MehrdadFR (talk) reverted your neutral edition in the article Hijab by country, because he is constantly reverting neutral and third party information and sources about the hijab in Iran, and is almost exclusively using POV (that is pro-government) language about the hijab in Iran (that may contradict academic sources which have no internet links) and is relying on sources based in Iran that naturally favor the Iranian policy on the hijab (and not on all third party and academic sources), as you can see in the Iran section of that article as well as in the Women in Iran article. He uses weasel words (that are commonly used by Iranian government sources) such as "the official reveiling in 1984" in both articles about the mandatory hijab for women. I reverted his reverts and clarified the sentences. Could you check this user and warn him about his use of POV and almost the expropriation of this subject? As I can see from this user's talk page, he also has a history of edit warring with other users in various articles, and has received warnings (including from you [3]).

Thank you.

Fixuture edit on Israel

Hi. I wanted to let you know that Fixuture reinstated an extremely cherry-picking POV paragraph that was rejected in February, despite there was no consensus for it, not then, not recently.--181.95.30.229 (talk) 04:15, 27 April 2017 (UTC)
