Shlomo ah, Nice work on the Syriac settlements articles. But don't you think that their Syriac names are more popular than their Turkish counterparts in English?--Rafy talk 09:28, 21 September 2011 (UTC)[reply]

Bsheyno, dear Rafy! We have to respect that the ground they stand on belongs to sovereign states like Turkey - so we are obliged to take their official name. Besides if you want to look up those settlements at Googlemaps, you will not find them with Syriac names! I will nevertheless create redirects under their Syriac names... Greetingz, Protossdesign (talk) 12:48, 21 September 2011 (UTC)[reply]
Actually we don't have to name the geographical locations by their official names, see for example the articles for Wien, București and Warszawa. If a name proves more popular in English then it should be used. (See WP:PLACE for the official wiki policy)--Rafy talk 15:11, 21 September 2011 (UTC)[reply]

Settlements Categories[edit]

Shlomo, I wanted to merge Category:Syriac settlements and Category:Assyrian settlements into one category or at least create a common sup-category for them. My suggestion are 1) to redirect one to the other, or 2) create a Category:Assyrian/Syriac settlements and redirect them both to it, or, 3) keep them both and make them sub-categories within Category:Assyrian/Syriac settlements. What do you think?--Rafy talk 09:15, 22 September 2011 (UTC)[reply]

Bsheyno dear Rafy, I really like your proposal and vote for your second suggestion. Besides I wonder if that "List of Assyrian settlements" can be renamed the same way to "List of Assyrian/Syriac settlements"?! I found no way to answer or vote for that option. - Regards, Protossdesign (talk) 09:20, 22 September 2011 (UTC)[reply]
I think the best thing to do now is to redirect Category:Syriac settlementstoCategory:Assyrian settlements then start a proposal to rename the list and its category to List of Assyrian/Syriac settlements.--Rafy talk 09:31, 22 September 2011 (UTC)[reply]
I am ok with both suggestions... Protossdesign (talk) 10:01, 22 September 2011 (UTC)[reply]

Disambiguation link notification for April 14[edit]

Hi. Thank you for your recent edits. Wikipedia appreciates your help. We noticed though that when you edited Satellite Award for Outstanding New Talent, you added a link pointing to the disambiguation page Derek Luke. 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) 09:57, 14 April 2017 (UTC)[reply]

August 2023[edit]

Information icon Hello, I'm Happily888. I noticed that you made an edit concerning content related to a living (or recently deceased) person, but you didn't support your changes with a citation to a reliable source. It's been removed and archived in the page history for now. Wikipedia has a very strict policy concerning how we write about living people, so please help us keep such articles accurate and clear. If you think I made a mistake, or if you have any questions, you can leave me a message on my talk page. Thank you! Happily888 (talk) 12:41, 18 August 2023 (UTC)[reply]
