Thanks for your comments on the NZ on Air entry. I'll reword as per your advice. I've been advise tht the national film archive is privately owned, snd yes it does get a substantial amount of money from govt funding, which makes it's position as default archivist for nz content interesting. Not really sure what it means. perhaps for someone else to contemplate. I'll just stick to the facts. Totally agree, there so much stuff to work on so I'm happy to help where I can with my knowledge or resource material on this topic. Not many people know more about this issue and the discussion on it. I'll do my best to assemble the best of relevant articles on it for everyone.Nzindie (talk) —Preceding undated comment added 04:26, 7 June 2013 (UTC)

I created a DYK nomination for the article you created on Du Bin[1]. I was hoping to have time to do some more work on it, but wanted to get the nomination in before the deadline. Today or tomorrow I'll try expanding it a bit more, and if you have time to do the same I would encourage it. Hope all's well. TheBlueCanoe 22:50, 21 June 2013 (UTC)
![]() | On24 June 2013, Did you know? was updated with a fact from the article Du Bin, which you created or substantially expanded. The fact was ... that New York Times photographer Du Bin was detained in China after releasing a documentary on the Masanjia Labor Camp? The nomination discussion and review may be seen at Template:Did you know nominations/Du Bin. You are welcome to check how many hits the article got while on the front page (here's how, quick check) and it will be added to DYKSTATS if it got over 5,000. If you know of another interesting fact from a recently created article, then please suggest it on the Did you know? talk page. |

We noticed though that when you edited The Gardener (2012 film), you added a link pointing to the disambiguation page BDS (check to confirm | fix with Dab solver). 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.

Hello, I'm not sure why you have undone my changes to the @Peace page. My changes were entirely constructive, aimed at making the article objective - I had removed quite a bit of subjective/inappropriate content, both negative and positive. Instead, it's now locked on to the negative hatchet job it was before I began editing it. I suggest it be reverted to my last change, made 23:48, 30 September 2014. — Preceding unsigned comment added by 202.180.127.197 (talk) 04:26, 4 October 2014 (UTC)
Thanks for the reply. Regarding the current version, perhaps the John Key song should be mentioned in a separate section entitled "Controversy", rather than the second sentence in the introduction - it is one song they have released out of many and is not representative of their typical style. I suggest using my introduction with a few changes - "The group is known for its experimental production style" would be more objective.

I noted that you have incorrectly placed the {{db-a2}} tag on a few articles. WP:CSD#A2 specifically refers to foreign language articles that already exist on another Wikipedia. The template requires a parameter wherein you identify the foreign language Wikipedia article that is duplicated. The mere fact that the article is not written in English is not sufficient reason to tag for speedy deletion. WikiDan61ChatMe!ReadMe!! 13:34, 18 November 2014 (UTC)
Hi Haminoon, and thanks for tagging International Trading & Technical Services Co. WLL (INTER-TECH) for speedy deletion. In this case, the user who created it had a username that also violated the username policy - specifically, the provision that account names can't be named after businesses. If you happen to spot those and they are engaged in promotional editing, feel free to report them to WP:UAA. They'll get blocked for a username violation, and their unwelcome edits will be stopped dead in their tracks. Thanks! --Drm310 (talk) 07:27, 23 November 2014 (UTC)
Hi Haminoon,
Sorry to have to say this right after a Barnstar, but your tagging of the Sakshi Gupta page for speedy deletion under WP:Criteria for speedy deletion#G1 as "nonsense or gibberish" is in error. The page was neither gibberish or nonsense when you tagged it, only 4 minutes after it was started! It did lack content at the time, being just an infobox, but I would suggest that a bit more time be allowed for an obviously incomplete page just started by a new editor.
But it would now qualify for speedy deletion under WP:Criteria for speedy deletion#A7 for lack of notability. Regards, 220 of Borg 10:48, 23 November 2014 (UTC)

Can you talk to user 86.135.99.68 about their edits to The Bill (series 20). They claim that a character, PC Des Taviner (Paul Usher), who was killed off in the Episode No. 199 (End of the Road) had his last appearance in a documentary Des and Reg Uncovered, broadcast after his final episode. The character was already dead, and the episode is a documentary not part of the storyline. They also keep removing the departures list, an important part of the page as it lists all cast changes. I am sick and tired of this person trying to justify a false case, and having to revert edits every time I come onto the wiki because they simply undo the whole edit as opposed to change one thing. 108.180.241.236 (talk) 06:42, 19 December 2014 (UTC)
Wasn't neutral at all, but for a good cause - it was meant to point out the ways in which the article is already pushing a POV. The claims that men are working in more dangerous jobs due to a hatred of men as a sex isn't proven at all, and runs up against the easy counter of safety inspections and modern medicine - which have lowered the death rate dramatically, and also - male employers.
Suicide is another example - more women attempt suicide, but as a group, prefer methods like overdose and cutting - methods which will give them plenty of time for second thoughts, or to be interrupted, and which are much easier for health care providers to deal with, than gunshots and jumping. By contrast, too many men aren't taking advantage of the services out there, designed to help them.
Claiming misandry here, while understandable, is also simplistic, naïve, and an editorial. — Preceding unsigned comment added by 67.234.85.177 (talk) 08:34, 26 December 2014 (UTC)
The article for Rajasthan Assembly contained a most unwarranted section for 'Leader of Opposition'. Somebody who could be sycophant of the current Opposition Leader may have inserted it, so I removed it. It did not give any historical perspective about that post. The main page does not even contain a link for 'leader of the house' which is a more important post. But it contained a frivolous section for LoP. — Preceding unsigned comment added by 108.228.13.71 (talk) 13:25, 26 December 2014 (UTC) "

Haminoon, your edits to User talk:Misterinterloper were inappropriate. You put a warning on him for deleting a speedy deletion tag, but he did not in fact do so. The deletion tag he removed was a proposed deletion tag, which says right on it that any editor is free to remove it, thereby aborting the proposed deletion of the article.
Note also that per WP:REMOVED there is nothing wrong with a user removing warnings and other comments from their talk page. It was not necessary for you to revert the removal.--Srleffler (talk) 04:52, 2 January 2015 (UTC)

Hi Haminoon. I have to tell you that ‘He was subsequently jailed for embezzlement from these homes.’ is not a fact - and should be removed without delay. Even if it was factual, under the UK’s Rehabilitation of Offenders Act 1974 it would be spent and not able to be quoted.
The reference to working as Bursar of the City of Westminster residential care homes is accurate - but I have been unable over many years to find a citation for it, and so would not mind if it was removed altogether.

I have restored the edits I made to the Dick Black (politician) page in an attempt to make the page an honest recording of the man. The information I removed was slanderous and inaccurate. People have continuously been trying to use his Wikipedia page as a means of slandering this man instead of an honest portrayal of his career. All information I have place on the page is cited by references and all biographical information comes straight from the Senator himself. Please stop making changes that place derogatory and incorrect information on this page. (Ashburnian) Jan. 8, 2015 — Preceding undated comment added 04:40, 8 January 2015 (UTC)
The Israel Project article , and most certainly the passage you keep reverting which reads ' the Israel Project, "seem to exist for no other reason than to spotlight the very worst aspects of Muslim societies." -is subject, like all other article related to the Israeli-Arab conflict to a 1RR limitation. See https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Template:Arab-Israeli_Arbitration_Enforcement . The relvant part, bolded for you, reads: "All articles related to the Arab–Israeli conflict, broadly construed, are under WP:1RR (one revert per editor per article per 24 hour period).

I did not mean to imply you had made up a citation. I was arguing that you were citing a source that did not provide any proof that the quote they were giving was accurate and was, in fact, given. The Mother Jones article did not provide any source information or context, and when I spoke to Senator Black he did not recall giving that quote. That is why I was so determined to have it removed. I believed that Mother Jones made up the citation. I also should have made the issue of context clear. I apologize for any offense I may have given you.Ashburnian (talk) 06:57, 10 January 2015 (UTC)

Hi. Thanks for patrolling new pages, an under-appreciated but essential task. Just a note about your recent tag on AIP&T: WP:CSD#G4 is only for cases where a previous deletion was by AfD (or another deletion discussion such MfD). AIP&T had been deleted before, but by a speedy, not AfD. In that case, the thing to do is just tag it again with the same speedy, assuming the reason still applies.

Then why are you acting as if you have authority on my talk page. You subversively threatened me with banning, trying to give the impression of being a staff member. You are posting racist material on the Bhutanese Passport page. Also preventing edits from removing it. You also are linking to it on 4chan.org on a post meant to make people laugh through generally inappropriate media. While that may be all well and good on 4chan, this is a informational website where such media doesn't belong.That Guy from 4chan (talk) 10:04, 18 January 2015 (UTC)
I will humor you. It is a racist impression of Bhutanese accent that is under some sort of sound filter to make it sound robotic.That Guy from 4chan (talk) 10:17, 18 January 2015 (UTC)
Well I must simply assume your telling the truth as to having never visited 4chan. If that is the case then let me be the one to inform you that there is no reasoning with 4chan. Much of it's user base consists of racist, homophobic, sexist, disturbed, and generally prejudiced people. Not all are like this though. The site is famous for its anonymity of its users and total willingness to discuss any topic. This is what attracts the better half of the site. It is hard to find a place where the only limit to discussion is illegal content.
Back to the subject at hand. I acted a bit rashly with the repetitive removal of the sound file. Since your argument is soundly logical I will again take your word for it. I only acted on what seemed right. I will, hereon, cease deleting the file till I can take out the time to check for the information myself. An event which is unlikely to come to pass.That Guy from 4chan (talk) 10:43, 18 January 2015 (UTC)
I just reverted 2 edits made by this ID that seem to be mostly insulting rather than any type of AGF 'helpful'.

You removed my recent edit to the page Boer and stated that it appears to have incorrect information; however I do believe that the information was correct. It is however difficult to cite a reliable source except those mentioned in the edit. Mainstream media coverage of Boer perspectives are tainted with propaganda or politics, and social media discussions or emails are not permitted. It is believed that the Boers should speak for themselves, and I have ample evidence in my possession stating the true facts. Numerous Boer meetings took place since 16 December 2014, and if you wish, I can refer Boer representatives to partake in this discussion. It may however shift heated debates between Boers and Afrikaners in the social media to Wikipedia, and I doubt if that would be in the best interest of the article. Furthermore it may also spark renewed debates about reliable sources, as who is best qualified to state the truth about the Boers? Is it the 'hostile' British or South African media, the numerous political factions falsely claiming to represent Boer interests, or the Boer representatives at official Boer meetings (and their official publications)?. My edit (and links) represent the facts from the latter. It should however be noted that today, there is still a conflict of interest between Boers and the Afrikaners. If that is ignored, the Boer page will only reflect the interests and opinions of the 'Super Afrikaners', who controlled society during during Apartheid

Hi there, I'm the guy from the Chiapas conflict article. I want to apologize. I did not mean to break any rules. I'm new here, and just created my account (something I had been thinking about doing for a while, and finally decided to do). Up until now most edits I did (as an anonymous user) were just small stuff, things like fixing a grammar mistake, or changing a list of something, like lists of elected officials after the US midterm elections (since some new people were coming in), or updating stuff for current events. So I probably should not have jumped into something without knowing all the protocols. I do want to say that I agree with others who raised the issue that the article in question is not in any way neutral, and is heavily slanted towards the EZLN side of the conflict. But I will simply offer suggestions in the "Talk" section. I promise will work to get myself some experience with the inner workings of Wikipedia before I do anything else bigger. At the moment, I am most comfortable with the small-scale changes I mentioned before.
Now on a related note, I want to know if you have any advice for a rookie like me. Anything I could do to build up my knowledge about how to edit articles? I'm open to any kind of advice. — Preceding unsigned comment added by Secureline (talk • contribs) 03:57, 7 February 2015 (UTC)

Hi there! I saw you corrected another error introduced by 192.43.227.18, which seems to be a place with one or more users who are either sincerely trying to contribute (but unskilled at distinguishing truth from fiction, and uninterested in engaging on talk pages) or trying to see what kinds of random nonsense they can get away with sticking into Wikipedia.

While I applaud you being a good Wikipedia soldier for vandalism and the like, I'm curious why you chose my article about "Love in the Age of Mechanical Reproduction" for speedy deletion. I checked out your "criteria" link and could find nothing that matched a good reason for a speedy deletion.
I am not the author, publicist or employee of the publishing company...just a science fiction fan who won an advanced copy of the book in a contest and loved it. Upon research, I found a slew of great reviews and decided that there is no reason that it shouldn't have a page. Further, the book is published by a major publisher and I accurately indexed the reviews in the article. I have no other tie to it so it's not "self-promotion. (By the way I saw some negative reviews the other day and would have added those as well as I pride myself in being a balanced contributor.)
If you claim that the subject is not notable enough or that it hadn't been released yet, I counter with the fact that every movie coming out in the next year (and many in future years) have articles, so why would an article about a movie released by a major studio trump a book released by a major publisher? I know we all hold movies in high regards these days, but books do in fact hold their own in our culture and it's sad to me that an encyclopedia that relies on the reading and writing of words would be a little more sensitive to the writers and readers of books.
That said, thanks for doing the dirty work that nobody enjoys. But do, please consider reinstating this article. — Preceding unsigned comment added by Redlemur (talk • contribs) 19:08, 10 February 2015 (UTC)

I apologize for the speedy removing of the Bhutanese Passport audio. I didn't notice there was a rfc ongoing and I took it for granted that it was vandalism. --Odiseo79 (talk) 00:46, 18 January 2015 (UTC)
I do not want to be impolite, but please allow me to express my standpoint. This person page was inappropriately and ARBITRARILY flagged for speedy deletion under the A7 tag specifically contrary to the guidance of that criteria, then the flag was PROMPTLY contested showing the article cited MULTIPLE credible, notable, relevant, and reliable sources (at least one for every part of a claim), and the article was still removed without ANY discussion. Please revert and restore the deleted page, and feel free to call me, 512-761-5740.
Hello, I am soliciting comments for an RfC that is currently open on the "Glengarry Glen Ross (film)" page. There is disagreement about where the film was set (New York vs. Chicago).
One of the issues is whether it is original research to cite to elements in the film itself (including props, dialogue, and a statement in the end credits that it was "filmed on location in New York City") to establish setting.
Response so far in the RfC has been mixed. Comments welcome! Xanthis (talk) 14:16, 9 March 2015 (UTC)

Your recent editing history at Willy Moon shows that you are currently engaged in an edit war. To resolve the content dispute, please do not revert or change the edits of others when you get reverted. Instead of reverting, please use the article's talk page to work toward making a version that represents consensus among editors. The best practice at this stage is to discuss, not edit-war. See BRD for how this is done. If discussions reach an impasse, you can then post a request for help at a relevant noticeboard or seek dispute resolution. In some cases, you may wish to request temporary page protection.
Being involved in an edit war can result in your being blocked from editing—especially if you violate the three-revert rule, which states that an editor must not perform more than three reverts on a single page within a 24-hour period. Undoing another editor's work—whether in whole or in part, whether involving the same or different material each time—counts as a revert. Also keep in mind that while violating the three-revert rule often leads to a block, you can still be blocked for edit warring—even if you don't violate the three-revert rule—should your behavior indicate that you intend to continue reverting repeatedly.Cebr1979 (talk) 10:03, 17 March 2015 (UTC)

I won't edit war, but did did you listen to the Bhutanese passport audio file? I find it hard to believe you think it's not a hoax—and, even worse, racist. JohnValeron (talk) 18:42, 19 March 2015 (UTC)

If you think this page should not be deleted for this reason, you may contest the nominationbyvisiting the page and clicking the button labelled "Click here to 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 removed 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.

Thank you for letting me know about Te Urewera. I wasn't aware of it. It is so rare that national parks cease to exist in developed countries, that I had no way of guessing. Now I have removed both the green area and the image annotation. Now I need to change some articles on my home wiki (mk.wiki) to reflect this change. Thanks again! --B.

Hello Haminoon. I received a message from you on November 2014 which I read today, in which you said you undid one of "my" edits on the page for Flushing, MI. I assure you that I have never actually visited that page; it may be that someone else is using this IP address. (I am not a user and have no identifying handle.)

You have continuously reverted my contributions to the article https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Maithripala_Sirisena stating that my citations are not from reliable sources. Could you explain why the sources I have cited are nor reliable (specially the data taken from the state owned Department of Statistics and the Department of Elections)? I will appreciate it. --Sadeera (talk) 10:11, 13 April 2015 (UTC)
Hi. I guess you are referring to two statements I have added to the article.
1. I have stated what are the majority ethnic groups in the given electoral districts based on the data from the Department of Statistics and Census.
2. I have stated the number of electorates the each candidate has won based on the data from the Department of Elections.
Neither of the above sources falls in to the category of original research and which one of the above are you referring to when you say "published sources in a way to imply something that none of them explicitly say"? Thanks, --Sadeera (talk) 10:39, 13 April 2015 (UTC)

Hello,
So, there is another editor who keeps blanking material, under one false pretense first ("term not claimed by subject", as if that were a valid blanking reason) and then under another (BLP violation, which I would agree, except there was never an articulation of how or why it is a BLP violation).
I repeatedly invited the other editor to articulate her POV on the TP, without her ever providing a shred of articulation, as outlined above.
The material unfairly blanked out consisted of straight up citations from BBC, Washington Post, Black Entertainment Television, CNN, and CBS New York.
What do I get? An unfair warning. From you.
What does the other editor get? Nothing that is visible on the timeline.
Thank you for the warning. XavierItzm (talk) 11:01, 13 June 2015 (UTC)

User:JimRaynor created the redirect Transracial Transformation and only User:Idont Havaname edited it 10 years ago until you....so comments like "It appears to be made to save the Transracial disambiguation page." which is only 1 years old [13] is factually incorrect. Here "Widefox's edits appear to be aimed at propagating a hoax. They look and smell like vandalism to me" [14] and when challenged to provide a diff... [15] you claim I added a word which is factually incorrect. They go further than WP:AGF.
