Picture upload request

Hi there. I found this picture, Image:Bourj Hammoud01.jpg, and I learnt that you posted it for Wikipedia. I am yet to create Arabic and Simple English articles for Bourj Hammoud, so I wish to urgently ask if you could make the picture "common" - or available at all time. You can do that by uploading it to this website:

But, of course, you'd need to obtain a Wikimedia.org account. Thanks a lot. - Omar 180 12:17, 21 June 2007 (UTC)[reply]

This is an automated message from CorenSearchBot. I have performed a web search with the contents of Zvartnots Cathedral, and it appears to be very similar to another wikipedia page: Zvartnots. It is possible that you have accidentally duplicated contents, or made an error while creating the page— you might want to look at the pages and see if that is the case.

This message was placed automatically, and it is possible that the bot is confused and found similarity where none actually exists. If that is the case, you can remove the tag from the article and it would be appreciated if you could drop a note on the maintainer's talk page. CorenSearchBot (talk) 10:36, 2 July 2008 (UTC)[reply]

You had participated back in February in this CfD regarding the Category:Documentaries alleging war crimes, which ended in no consensus. A new proposal has been made to eliminate this category and merge its contents to Category:War documentaries which is now going on at Wikipedia:Categories for discussion/Log/2008 September 24#Category:Documentaries alleging war crimes.

RE: Energy in Armenia

Բարեւ Serouj, thanks for the links. It's a great model for Armenia to follow so long as we learn from their problems.

Too bad the Renewable Energy in Armenia site is down, would've been very useful and interesting to see what other steps Armenia is taking to become less dependent on outdated energy sources like gas and oil. I hope the Danes will release the information soon. In the meantime, I found this. I was actually pleasantly surprised myself to see that Armenia's got a wind farm, albeit a small one... the one which you snapped a picture of. And the geothermal plant is just great news as well. Hopefully, the sources are accurate. - Fedayee (talk) 18:55, 1 November 2008 (UTC)[reply]

Proposed deletion of Social issues in Armenia

A proposed deletion template has been added to the article Social issues in Armenia, suggesting that it be deleted according to the proposed deletion process because of the following concern:

Social issues in Armenia

All contributions are appreciated, but this article may not satisfy Wikipedia's criteria for inclusion, and the deletion notice should explain why (see also "What Wikipedia is not" and Wikipedia's deletion policy). You may prevent the proposed deletion by removing the {{dated prod}} notice, but please explain why you disagree with the proposed deletion in your edit summary or on its talk page.

Please consider improving the article to address the issues raised because, even though removing the deletion notice will prevent deletion through the proposed deletion process, the article may still be deleted if it matches any of the speedy deletion criteria or it can be sent to Articles for Deletion, where it may be deleted if consensus to delete is reached.

Serouj,

The references that I removed were either not relevant or very remotely relevant to the sentence that they were referencing, and were placed there primarily for promotional reasons. In each case I provided a more relevant link. -Սահակ/Sahak (talk) 14:09, 26 November 2008 (UTC)[reply]

You are doing a "Sneaky vandalism"

Modification of the original source based on what you think is injection of POV. We go with what the source says. Removing the Kurdish Genocide, though listed in the original source, is a "Sneaky vandalism." --Ahmetsaatalti (talk) 01:01, 21 December 2008 (UTC)[reply]

What "original source" are you talking about with your proposed "Kurdish Genocide" that you claim occurred contemporaneously with the Armenian Genocide? I have yet to come across a reputable academic source which claims a Kurdish Genocide at the same time of the Armenian, Pontic Greek, and Assyrian genocides. If anything, there is evidence of Kurdish involvement in the massacres of the above peoples during the genocide. Your intra-wiki link to Kurdish Genocide on the Armenian Genocide page will be removed. Thanks. Serouj (talk) 03:00, 21 December 2008 (UTC)[reply]

The last sentence of the first paragraph cites the article: Schaller, Dominik J. and Zimmerer, Jürgen (2008) 'Late Ottoman genocides: the dissolution of the Ottoman Empire and Young Turkish population and extermination policies – introduction', Journal of Genocide Research, 10:1, 7–14. This article references the first three genocides that is stated in the article which I guess you have not problem with. But the original text do not stop with the first three and continues with the one you reject. You are selecting what to include and what to reject from the article. This is "Sneaky vandalism." The evidence you are asking is in the article. --Ahmetsaatalti (talk) 03:08, 21 December 2008 (UTC)[reply]

Orphaned non-free image (File:The Armenian Genocide (2006 film poster).jpg)

You've uploaded File:The Armenian Genocide (2006 film poster).jpg, and indicated that it's used under Wikipedia's rules for non-free images. However, it's not presently used in any articles. Wikipedia policy requires that non-free images be either used or deleted, so if this image isn't used in an article in the next week, it will be deleted.

պ, տ, կ in Armenian

Hi. I noticed you changed the pronunciation of these consonants in Eastern Armenian to ejectives. However, those are not ejectives but plain voiceless consonants, like Russian п, т, к. Hear this ejective here. I'm sure you've never heard an Armenian making that sound. At least not the ones speaking literary Eastern Armenian or Ararat valley dialect. Anyway, I'm going to change the pronunciations in Eastern Armenian and Armenian alphabet when I have time, just wanted to let you know. --Vahagn Petrosyan (talk) 20:24, 12 April 2009 (UTC)[reply]

Pronunciation of ռ in Western Armenian

Hey, another question. How do you pronounce ռ in Western Armenian? Is it really an alveolar tap? Then don't you distinguish between ր and ռ? Because in Eastern Armenian ր is an alveolar tap and ռ is an alveolar trill. --Vahagn Petrosyan (talk) 22:13, 12 April 2009 (UTC)[reply]

Bana Cathedral

Hi Serouj! That's an interesting subject. I think I will create it soon on wk:fr. Moreover, I will use Donabédian, who commented on the building. Sardur (talk) 23:16, 8 May 2009 (UTC)[reply]

Donabédian has Banak has well. Sardur (talk) 07:06, 9 May 2009 (UTC)[reply]

Hello Serouj. I noticed your clash with an ip over the Bana cathedral article. While the anon was incorrect when eliminating the Armenian origin of the church, Bana’s Georgian renovators should also be mentioned. I don’t know whether your sources speak of its Georgian connections, but I can provide you with the sources, including those by Armenian authors, about how Bana was restored by the Georgian Bagratids from Arab devastation in the 9th century and then was a venue for coronation of a couple of Georgian monarchs. I think we can cooperate and improve the article. I’m also suggesting renaming the article back to Bana, for its being the most frequently used name in both Armenian and Georgian sources. Best, KoberTalk 18:53, 10 May 2009 (UTC)[reply]

Hi Serouj! Actually, Donabédian, while recognising the Armenian type of the cathedral, disagrees on its dating:

"Rangée par quelques auteurs parmi les constructions du VIIe siècle, elle est en réalité précisément datée par un témoignage historique (chronique géorgienne du XIe siècle) du règne du prince Adrnérsé II (881-923) et rien n'autorise à mettre en doute cette datation."
Patrick Donabédian, L'âge d'or de l'architecture arménienne, Parenthèses, Marseille, 2008, ISBN 978-2-86364-172-9, p. 199.

Sardur (talk) 05:46, 15 May 2009 (UTC)[reply]


Your thoughts are offensive, If I wanted something to change, I'd do so, without being anonymous! The only change I made to "Banak Cathedral" is the move to Bana Cathedral over redirect. That's all! I don't understand who gave you right to name the article “Banak”?! If you agree with Kober about restoration of the Cathedral, after which Armenians are unrelated to it, then it must be named Bana!--Rastrelli F (talk) 05:55, 15 May 2009 (UTC)[reply]

About template

I just feel it would better to combine the two, because the 'History of the Armenian Language' can only go as far as literally describing the history of the Armenian language. By combining the two, people can not only find the history of the language, but also links to other articles describing grammar, orthography, etc. Consider it, and just a personal note, I think a template like the one I created is larger and more eye-catching. —Preceding unsigned comment added by Montyofarabia (talk • contribs) 06:38, 29 May 2009 (UTC)[reply]

To Seruj

As you can check, radio station Radio Free Europe has already taken out the offending words addressed to Gagik Tsarukyan. Even more, newspaper “Haykakan Zhamanak”(from which Radio Free Europe radio station took the source and translated the information into English) also has taken out these offending words from its archive text(You can check it easily, the text is in Armenian). So after this I think you should delete the nickname addressed to Gagik Tsarukyan. (Otherwise I can do it myself) Thank You for attention.

Hey there. I've provided an alternative link as well as the quote from the article. I don't see what your problem with the nickname is, as it is a widely used nickname and it is reasonable to have it in this article. Serouj (talk) 16:16, 24 June 2009 (UTC)[reply]
Hey, So you should distinguish that one thing is nickname, another thing is the OFFENDING nickname. According to Wikipedia rules, you cant use offending, and also non-formal words. The nickname you mantioned is not only Non-formal word, but also an offending one.Lenagroup (talk) 06:28, 25 June 2009 (UTC)[reply]
Let's understand the situation dear Serouj. One thing is nickname(Margaret Thetcher-iron lady) BUT another thing is offending nickname with slang words. Even more, ArmeniaNow media(the one to that Serouj posted the link) already edited the article. What I want to tell, is that I think all self-respectful Armenian medias would edit this horrible slang addressed to Gagik Tsarukyan if they know that it will serve as link to Wikipedia.

Is the Church of the Holy Cross here[1], the same church mentioned and pictured here[2]?? The book Lonely Planet Georgia Armenia & Azerbaijan mentions an Armenian Norasheni Church, but makes no mention of the Church of the Holy Cross. --Kansas Bear (talk) 20:37, 13 July 2009 (UTC)[reply]

Armenians

Apologies. There were several intermediate edits by an anonymous editor that were vandalism - I inadvertently went too far. My fault. --Manway (talk) 21:07, 17 July 2009 (UTC)[reply]

The source cannot be called 'incorrect' just because you feel like disagreeing with it. Please refrain from removing it until you have a valid proof of it being incorrect. Parishan (talk) 06:42, 18 July 2009 (UTC)[reply]

You have been blocked from editing for a short time in accordance with Wikipedia's blocking policy for violating the three-revert rule. Please be more careful to discuss controversial changes or seek dispute resolution rather than engaging in an edit war. If you believe this block is unjustified, you may contest the block by adding the text {{unblock|Your reason here}} below, but you should read our guide to appealing blocks first.
The duration of the block is 48 hours. Here are the reverts in question. William M. Connolley (talk) 17:52, 18 July 2009 (UTC)[reply]
This user's unblock request has been reviewed by an administrator, who declined the request. Other administrators may also review this block, but should not override the decision without good reason (see the blocking policy).

Request reason:

The reason for the reversions was due to the controversial changes of a user to the article that amounted to vandalism. Adding information blatantly out of context to the article as well as controversial info CAN be reverted! That is what keeps quality in Wikipedia. Also let me clarify that the controversial information was initiated by the user Parishan, and the onus was on HIM to prove the controversial points. In any case, the issue was resolved long ago, and I'm rather surprised that user Grandmaster (same guy as Parishan?) initiated this action. I ask that you swiftly remove this ban.

Decline reason:

No, this is a content dispute, not a matter of reverting vandalism. "I am right" is not a reason to violate WP:3RR. See also the warning below.  Sandstein  20:28, 18 July 2009 (UTC)[reply]


If you want to make any further unblock requests, please read the guide to appealing blocks first, then use the {{unblock}} template again. If you make too many unconvincing or disruptive unblock requests, you may be prevented from editing this page until your block has expired. Do not remove this unblock review while you are blocked.

The Arbitration Committee has permitted administrators to impose, at their own discretion, sanctions on any editor working on pages broadly related to Armenia-Azerbaijan and related ethnic conflicts if the editor repeatedly or seriously fails to adhere to the purpose of Wikipedia, any expected standards of behavior, or any normal editorial process. If you engage in further inappropriate behavior in this area, you may be placed under sanctions including blocks, a revert limitation or an article ban. The committee's full decision can be read at Wikipedia:Requests for arbitration/Armenia-Azerbaijan 2#Final decision.
