The IP editor is continuing to conduct his POV vandalism at all three articles and thus I have requested that all three articles be temporarily semi-protected. See here. The request is pending at the moment. EkoGraf (talk) 20:04, 14 May 2018 (UTC)[reply]

I added one more articleShadow4dark (talk) 20:34, 14 May 2018 (UTC)[reply]

Hi Shadow4dark, I wonder why you reverted me. We actually already have a template Template:Kurdish–Turkish conflict (1978–present) for the time and if we make it even with an unlimited timeframe, it will become even larger. What are your thoughts?Paradise Chronicle (talk) 19:55, 28 May 2020 (UTC)[reply]

I did it because the infobox had attacks from TAX wich is not PKK. If you want revert me back you need remove all non PKK events.Shadow4dark (talk) 23:14, 28 May 2020 (UTC)[reply]

Ahhh, got your point. I do not want to revert "you" back in this case. Just bring some sense to the template, just as I guess you wanted to bring too. Ok, I'll do the edits. If ou agree great, if not, do not hesitate in contacting me. Paradise Chronicle (talk) 23:21, 28 May 2020 (UTC)[reply]

Hi Shadow4dark. After reviewing your request for "rollbacker", I have temporarily enabled rollback on your account until 2020-08-17. Keep in mind these things when going to use rollback:

• Getting rollback is no more momentous than installing Twinkle.
• Rollback should be used to revert clear cases of vandalism only, and not good faith edits.
• Rollback should never be used to edit war.
• If abused, rollback rights can be revoked.
• Use common sense.

If you no longer want rollback, contact me and I'll remove it. Also, for some more information on how to use rollback, see Wikipedia:Administrators' guide/Rollback (even though you're not an admin). I'm sure you'll do great with rollback, but feel free to leave me a message on my talk page if you run into troubles or have any questions about appropriate/inappropriate use of rollback. Thank you for helping to reduce vandalism. Happy editing! Anarchyte (talk • work) 06:54, 17 July 2020 (UTC)[reply]

Did you request an RfC? I haven't seen any about Tell Abyad. See here. I have requested help at the NPOV noticeboard. EdJohnston mentioned he'd be willing to close an RfC. Lets wait some more days...I also hope for a solution. I think if we open to discussions at different noticeboards, it might get confusing. You could request dispute solution under a different pretext at another Noticeboard, but I don't know if this might prolong the dispute.Paradise Chronicle (talk) 17:16, 17 July 2020 (UTC)[reply]

You have shown interest in post-1932 politics of the United States and closely related people. Due to past disruption in this topic area, a more stringent set of rules called discretionary sanctions is in effect. Any administrator may impose sanctions on editors who do not strictly follow Wikipedia's policies, or the page-specific restrictions, when making edits related to the topic.

For additional information, please see the guidance on discretionary sanctions and the Arbitration Committee's decision here. If you have any questions, or any doubts regarding what edits are appropriate, you are welcome to discuss them with me or any other editor.

I am not sure if we talk about the same conflict. There is an insurgence, but here is also a political conflict. Both conflicts are somehow intertwined as most politicians get accused of supporting an "organization" and it is mainly thought to be the PKK. But it is not named the PKK, so there is a doubt, which organization they are talking about. Maybe it is the UNICEF they are talking about. Who knows? I suggest, you to create a PKK-Turkey conflict article or I'll create it.Paradise Chronicle (talk) 00:28, 24 July 2020 (UTC)[reply]

I believe Iraq–ISIL War or War in Iraq (2013–2017) are much better so we should change it back to either, 0 references call the conflict a civil war and the name change to “iraqi civil war (2014–2017)” happened in mid-late 2014 when the conflict escalated before everyone knew what type of conflict it was, which makes the name outdated. Ehoah88880 (talk) 17:33, 14 November 2020 (UTC)[reply]

Now that we saw most people supporting the name “War in Iraq (2013–2017)” can you please close the discussion and move the article? Thanks. Ehoah88880 (talk) 15:22, 18 November 2020 (UTC)[reply]

Hi, I hope everything is going fine with you. I am not sure whether you are following the Case, but GPinkerton has added here a large number of alleged edits of yours that they are claiming these are problematic. The Evidence period has just been extended until Feb. 8 to give people time to respond.

@Drmies: this user is new and starts immediately RfC which is odd. But if i look his edit summary it is similair to RandomAccount1235423 and Gala19000.

Hmm. Yeah, one of two--I don't know what to do with that. I mean, I could run a whole bunch of checks to see which of the two it might be, but I don't know if that's worth the trouble. You might could file a new SPI for the one you think is the best match, indicate that they've already been blocked, but that it's worth categorizing them properly--if you think that's worth it.

Hey, I've seen your latest edit "It will enter in service in 2030s". I'm not a native speaker but I think something like "TF-X is expected to be delivered in 2030s" or "TF-X will go into service in 2030s" would be better. I can't really make a perfect sentence neither so I just wanted to show you my ideas. I looked at some examples and "into" is used alot.

Another topic: I've watched a recent interview of Ismail Demir and he said that they expect TFX to go into service 4 or 5 years after first flight date wich is around 2029/2030. I'm thinking about giving an exact date like 2029 or 2030 instead of 2030s, with sources. ŞeyhMuşmula (talk) 00:46, 30 March 2021 (UTC)[reply]

Good contributor Cengizsogutlu (talk) 02:39, 31 March 2021 (UTC)[reply]

Hello Shadow4dark, I hope you are doing well. I wanted to point out some recent, potentially disruptive, editing by editor Kullanıcı İsmi who you seemed to have had experience in the past. Namely, the editor in question added a separation line into the infoboxes of almost four dozen Syrian civil war battle articles so to separate the al-Nusra Front from other rebel groups. As per established parameters, the separation line is reserved for those who are fighting against the same enemy, but are not fighting as allies. These groups fought side-by-side as allies during the battles. Furthermore, Kullanıcı İsmi went as far as to remove sourced content and its sources (such as BBC News) in a few of the articles as well without any explanation. He seems to have done this in the past as well. He marked almost all of his edits as minor, which they are not. I think an eye should be kept on Kullanıcı İsmi's behavior and action considered if it continues. He seems to have been blocked three times already in just one month since starting to edit, but apparently to no effect. In any case, your help on resolving the issue in a way that would be beneficial to all if possible would be greatly appreciated. Cheers and have a great day! EkoGraf (talk) 19:55, 7 April 2021 (UTC)[reply]

Seems the editor has been indefinitely blocked and the issue resolved. EkoGraf (talk) 20:25, 7 April 2021 (UTC)[reply]

On 20 September you linked the name “Australia” to the article about Australia. To avoid the disadvantages of excessive linking in articles we avoid linking to a number of common words that will be well-known to readers. The names of countries is one example of a family of words that we don’t link in articles. Please see MOS:OVERLINK. Dolphin (t) 13:31, 20 September 2021 (UTC)[reply]

Hello Shadow4dark - noticed your edit, I just wanted to ask whether this was added as per one of the sources before. Rather than reverting in case I am missing it. Might be better to provide reference? --TataofTata (talk) 16:58, 3 October 2021 (UTC)[reply]

See ref 6, only Öcalan claims these new pkk ideology. Also do you know that these dispute tag was added by sock puppet konli17.Shadow4dark (talk) 17:23, 3 October 2021 (UTC)[reply]

@Shadow4dark: Thanks, it might be good to distinguish which citation you're referring to. Also I looked at source (ref 6) which refers to this pdf

page 16: "Notwithstanding their distinct roots, the last decade has seen greater ideological convergence between the PKK and the political parties; both have adopted the tenets of Abdullah Öcalan’s philosophy. Öcalan had already begun to move away from the objective of an independent united Kurdistan by 1993, when he tentatively put forward compromise proposals in favour of autonomy within Turkey. The PKK’s objectives have not simply been reconfigured since Öcalan’s imprisonment, albeit as late as 2000 he still made reference to obtaining a state (Akkaya/Jongerden 2011: 145). Öcalan used his trials as platforms to communicate an elaborate, all-encompassing system of societal organisation and selfgovernance..."

To me this does not describe a denial, but as stated a compromise and aligning of said objective from the PKK itself. --TataofTata (talk) 13:16, 4 October 2021 (UTC)[reply]

Ah thanks for this maybe it should be changed to『disputed by Öcalan』Shadow4dark (talk) 21:45, 4 October 2021 (UTC)[reply]

You reverted my edit on Turkey as though it were vandalism. It was not. In a section talking about the name of the country and how the official English spelling it is being changed to avoid an association with the bird, the fact that the bird is in fact named for the country is relevant. Lexicon (talk) 23:08, 22 January 2022 (UTC)[reply]

I see you actually only reverted the editing of the reference to add the source name. Lexicon (talk) 23:19, 22 January 2022 (UTC)[reply]

It was a misclick because rollback is used against vandalism and not for good faith edits. Republic of Turkiye is now in bold on first line. Shadow4dark (talk) 23:20, 22 January 2022 (UTC)[reply]

why did you revert me there? what is the problem there? Gooduserdude (talk) 14:38, 23 April 2022 (UTC)[reply]

Where is the consensus for including it? The spurious claim was added without consensus, it was removed, then it is being added without consensus again.
