Rollback rights[edit]

You're welcome: the reverts of yours that I reviewed seemed fine. Just remember to use rollback for reverting vandalism only. You may want to take a look at Wikipedia:New admin school/Rollback if you're interested in some practice. Good luck. Acalamari 23:07, 24 May 2008 (UTC)[reply]

CSD G4 "previously deleted"[edit]

Just a reminder it can't be used to speedy delete things unless it's been through a deletion discussion eg previously speedy deleted things aren't eligible for this. You can nominate it under the same criteria as before though. --Tombomp (talk) 18:23, 26 May 2008 (UTC)[reply]

Eenemies of Batman[edit]

OK, I have explained my thougths on the Enemies of Batman talk page. Dyslexic agnostic 21:51, 22 January 2006 (UTC)[reply]

I recall a section there where you (benon) asked me if I'd like some copyedit from third, and I replied I beg you to...did somebody erased it?--T-man... ""worst vandal ever"" 23:53, 22 January 2006 (UTC)[reply]
oh yeah sorry we did copy-edit it as no offnce but some of it could have sounded better even though it was correct :-) Benon 23:54, 22 January 2006 (UTC)[reply]
Benon, thanks for your "interference" here, it was welcome. I have begun some copyedit of Enemies of Batman, although at times it is hard to make out what T-Man is trying to say. I will try to keep the framework of the current concept, though, and have filled in years of first appearances where missing. Dyslexic agnostic 02:38, 23 January 2006 (UTC)[reply]

Kurdish Music[edit]

That article is copyrighted, just copied and pasted out of biased text. That article should be about music not political or geographical issues and called areas in Iran and Iraq Kurdistan. This is politcally motivated and you are aiding this. This does not benefit Wikipedia. 82.145.231.57 05:08, 26 January 2006 (UTC)[reply]

Because of an an unfair assited pop revision this page cannot be cleaned up of politically motivated comments and copyright violations. Actually, I think it is copyvio; see [3]) 201.17.212.126 05:21, 26 January 2006 (UTC)[reply]

I have reported you to Wikipedia. 201.17.212.126 05:27, 26 January 2006 (UTC)[reply]

No one blanked the article. They REVERTED to a cleaned up version. What does calling Iran and Iraq areas of an non-existent Kurdistan in that region have to do with musical genres or proples? This is politically motivated and wrong. I have to let you know that we are preparing legal issues because of Wikipedia's rep on the Net - people will read such articles and take them as verifiable fact. IN FACT when you google it already many articles use this article as source - WITH NO COLLOBORATING EVIDENCE. I stress this point. You are in fact MAKING something which does have credit verifable - creating misconception. People are falsely using this article as though it is fact. The article was taken from the book quoted in that article - and that book has been discredited as a political tool. Plus it's musicologoy is incorrect. Are you an expert on this region's music? Sending politcal messages under the auspices of a music article - all over the web. Wikipedia should not be used as a vehicle for such things - the apporpriate article for Kurdish sensitivities can be opened. This is not the way an objective article is written when the subject matter is about music. Where on the world map is there a Iraq Kurdistan or Iran Kudistan? An Afgahistani muslim minority majority lives in Bradford in England Essex - I don't see articles on this region of England being quoted as UK Afghanistan. This article when we compare with other articles on Wiki is not sourced at all - just copied and pasted with almost no complete reference to music.

There is a hidden agenda here and with your help Wikipedia is playing to that. And the way you have chosen to protect this page goes against all Wikipedia policy. This means I can open an article about music - stick in any facts I like derogatory to 3 or 4 nations and leave it for a while for it to be fact on the Net?

You are perpetuating false information. If you can find me one independent source to verify any of what is written there - INDEPENDENT OF THAT ARTICLE - then I will accept it. Otherwise it is just an underhanded way of propagating terroist proganda at the best - and bad information at the least. 82.145.231.77 23:43, 26 January 2006 (UTC)[reply]
