please use arguments to counter wp:undue and wp:point violations
Welcome, and thank you for experimenting with Wikipedia.
- Your test moveon the page Azad Kashmir / Pakistan occupied Kashmir has been reverted. Please take a look at the welcome page or introduction to editing to learn more about contributing to this encyclopedia.Cityvalyu (talk) 02:43, 28 August 2008 (UTC)
- Your page move edit appears to be unconstructive and you have not used to used the talk page to counter the arguments.Further the edits that you reverted were well explained in the talk page unlike your edits. Hence, it appears to be an edit war with no logical backing to counter the issues discussed at the talk page. If you believe the edit was constructive, ensure that you provide an informative point by point rebuttal to counter the arguments on talk page and then please state the reasons for reverting to a "per se controversial" title (Azad Kashmir) that violates wp:undue and wp:point.Cityvalyu (talk) 02:43, 28 August 2008 (UTC)
Warning
Please refrain from undoing other people's edits repeatedly. If you continue, you may be blocked from editing Wikipedia. Note that the three-revert rule prohibits making more than three reversions in a content dispute within a 24 hour period. Additionally, users who perform a large number of reversions in content disputes may be blocked for edit warring, even if they do not technically violate the three-revert rule. Rather than reverting, discuss disputed changes on the talk page. The revision you want is not going to be implemented by edit warring. Thank you.Cityvalyu (talk) 02:43, 28 August 2008 (UTC)
- If you would like to experiment further, please use the sandbox. Users who perform a large number of reversions in content disputes may be blocked for edit warring, even if they do not technically violate the three-revert rule. If you continue, you may be blocked from editing. Please do not repeatedly revert edits, but use the talk page to work towards wording and content that gains a consensus among editors. If necessary, pursue dispute resolution. Thank you.Cityvalyu (talk) 02:43, 28 August 2008 (UTC)
- Please explain in which article i have violated 3RR. --Soman (talk) 11:37, 28 August 2008 (UTC)
Orphaned non-free media (Image:NPsouthafrica.jpg)
Thanks for uploading Image:NPsouthafrica.jpg. The media description page currently specifies that it is non-free and may only be used on Wikipedia under a claim of fair use. However, it is currently orphaned, meaning that it is not used in any articles on Wikipedia. If the media was previously in an article, please go to the article and see why it was removed. You may add it back if you think that that will be useful. However, please note that media for which a replacement could be created are not acceptable for use on Wikipedia (see our policy for non-free media).
If you have uploaded other unlicensed media, please check whether they're used in any articles or not. You can find a list of 'image' pages you have edited by clicking on the "my contributions" link (it is located at the very top of any Wikipedia page when you are logged in), and then selecting "Image" from the dropdown box. Note that all non-free media not used in any articles will be deleted after seven days, as described on criteria for speedy deletion. Thank you. BJBot (talk) 05:15, 28 August 2008 (UTC)
Dear Soman,
before deleting text from the article The Left (Germany) use the discussion board, please. All statements are supported by objective sources or sources of the party itself. After we discussed it we come up with a common understanding and edit the article. Please stop to be aggressive and calm down and discuss. Thank you.

Kashmir related edits
Hi Soman, I sincerely apologize if I have hurt your sentiments during the course of really heated arguments on topics related to Kashmir. Shovon (talk) 20:18, 1 September 2008 (UTC)
reword
u wrote " India claims both AJK & FANA as 'PoK'"..you may have erred..first, pok is a term which came to exist from 1947..the article on northern areas and ak say that pakistan coined these terms and carved these entities out of pok (or whatever you wish to call that entity) AFTER 1970....SO, INDIA DOES NOT CLAIM ANYTHING HERE..constant name from 1947 till now-pok!! INSTEAD PAKISTAN CLAIMS THESE TWO TERMS (USED EXCLUSIVELY ONLY WITHIN PAKISTAN) AND THESE BIASED POST 1970 TERMS LACK MEANING TOO (AZADI=INDEPENDENCE)to erase pok memory and imply northern areas of pok was not under kashmir conflict(implying merger with pak state)..only fools will believe that and support its unilateral decision to betray the kashmiri cause by ceding kashmir territory to china.... SO wE HAVE TO WEED OUT PAK. PROPAGANDA AND USE OBJECTIVE TERMS UNDERSTOOD BY ALL!! i suggest a rewording "pak. claims pok is made up of two areas ajk and na after 1970.."..that should sound neutral and without any confabulation!!!Kashmircloud (talk) 21:32, 1 September 2008 (UTC)

insulting other editors
I notice that this edit history your reinserted comment didn't contain any earthshaking new perspective comes off as an insult to other editors. I just thought I will bring it to your attention. DockuHi 12:26, 9 September 2008 (UTC)
- look, we have to be able to separate between the edits and the editors. Criticism of an edit doesn't necessarily mean disrespect of the editor in question. My criticism of cityvalyu's edit was essentially that it didn't contain very much more than a candid repeat of his 'keep' vote. My understanding was that there was no content in the latter edits that would have caused the closing admin to withdraw his closure. --Soman (talk) 12:37, 9 September 2008 (UTC)
- It may be the case. In a poinsoned environment like that, even such a candid remark could be unhelpful. There was no need for you to revert his edit (as an involved party), a non-involved admin could have done it. DockuHi 12:42, 9 September 2008 (UTC)
- Look, the AfD was already closed, with the tags "Please do not modify it." and "No further edits should be made to this page.". At that point cityvalyu should have understood that further edits in that particular AfD was futile, my revert was merely a formality. --Soman (talk) 12:47, 9 September 2008 (UTC)

- Well, Shouldn't I have known that you have your own reasons why you did what you did, I thought I would let u know that I noticed the incendiary and insulting remark on the edit history you made. DockuHi 12:54, 9 September 2008 (UTC)
- i think you can agree that 'incendiary' is not the appropriate term here. Do you think cityvalyu's last comments provided any 'earthshaking new perspective'? --Soman (talk) 13:15, 9 September 2008 (UTC)

Image copyright problem with Image:FAsouthafrica.jpg
Thanks for uploading Image:FAsouthafrica.jpg. You've indicated that the image is being used under a claim of fair use, but you have not provided an adequate explanation for why it meets Wikipedia's requirements for such images. In particular, for each page the image is used on, the image must have an explanation linking to that page which explains why it needs to be used on that page. Can you please check
- That there is a non-free use rationale on the image's description page for each article the image is used in.
- That every article it is used on is linked to from its description page.

This is an automated message from CorenSearchBot. I have performed a web search with the contents of Valencian Left (1934), and it appears to be very similar to another wikipedia page: Valencian Left. 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) 08:29, 11 September 2008 (UTC)

Speedy deletion of Kongunadu Makkal Katchi
A tag has been placed on Kongunadu Makkal Katchi requesting that it be speedily deleted from Wikipedia. This has been done under section A7 of the criteria for speedy deletion, because the article appears to be about a person or group of people, but it does not indicate how or why the subject is notable: that is, why an article about that subject should be included in an encyclopedia. Under the criteria for speedy deletion, articles that do not indicate the subject's importance or significance may be deleted at any time. Please see the guidelines for what is generally accepted as notable, as well as our subject-specific notability guideline for biographies.
If you think that this notice was placed here in error, you may contest the deletion by adding {{hangon}}
to the top of the page that has been nominated for deletion (just below the existing speedy deletion or "db" tag), coupled with adding a note on the talk page explaining your position, but be aware that once tagged for speedy deletion, if the article meets the criterion it may be deleted without delay. Please do not remove the speedy deletion tag yourself, but don't hesitate to add information to the article that would would render it more in conformance with Wikipedia's policies and guidelines. Lastly, please note that if the article does get deleted, you can contact one of these admins to request that a copy be emailed to you. RavichandarMy coffee shop 01:51, 12 September 2008 (UTC)

Forked articles (Valencian Left (1934))
Just a quick note to say that, when you take content from one article as a base for a new one, you should wikilink the original article in the edit summary of the first revision of the new article. This is to keep the GFDL attribution of the users' who edited the first article. Best, – Toon(talk) 23:54, 14 September 2008 (UTC)
- I pressed save a bit to quick, and as you know edit summaries cannot be changed retrospectively. I did however, post a notice at Talk:Valencian_Left_(1934). I did also clearly state the shifting at [1]. --Soman (talk) 06:42, 15 September 2008 (UTC)
- Yeah, I always hit return when trying to use "]" - which can be a pain! No worries, I added a note to the bottom of the article as well, just to make it clearer. Best, – Toon(talk) 14:46, 15 September 2008 (UTC)

Replaceable fair use Image:Wasakärven.jpg
Thanks for uploading Image:Wasakärven.jpg. I noticed the description page specifies that the media is being used under a claim of fair use, but its use in Wikipedia articles fails our first non-free content criterion in that it illustrates a subject for which a freely licensed media could reasonably be found or created that provides substantially the same information. If you believe this media is not replaceable, please:
- Go to the media description page and edit it to add
{{di-replaceable fair use disputed}}
, without deleting the original replaceable fair use template. - On the image discussion page, write the reason why this image is not replaceable at all.
Alternatively, you can also choose to replace this non-free media by finding freely licensed media of the same subject, requesting that the copyright holder release this (or similar) media under a free license, or by taking a picture of it yourself.
If you have uploaded other non-free media, consider checking that you have specified how these images fully satisfy our non-free content criteria. You can find a list of description pages you have edited by clicking on this link. Note that even if you follow steps 1 and 2 above, non-free media which could be replaced by freely licensed alternatives will be deleted 2 days after this notification (7 days if uploaded before 13 July 2006), per our non-free content policy. If you have any questions please ask them at the Media copyright questions page. Thank you. Do you want to opt out of receiving this notice? Lokal_Profil 13:20, 20 September 2008 (UTC)

Discrimination against the Bihari community in India=
Hi Soman The article Racism faced by Bihari community in India, has been systematically altered to change the voice of the article. A similar edit was done in the past as well. Kindly refer the discussion here - Talk:Violence_against_Hindi-speaking_migrants_in_India#cleanup .
A systematic attempt has been made to change the voice (and not the tone) of the article which I feel is equivalent to deleting the article, which was protested at Wikipedia:Articles_for_deletion/Racism_faced_by_Bihari_people_in_India and writing a new article all together. The out come of the discussion ( Wikipedia:Articles_for_deletion/Racism_faced_by_Bihari_people_in_India )was clearly against the deletion of the article.
I would request you to protect the article to it's previous edition titled " Discrimination against Biharis in India " till a agreement is reached. Thanks Manoj nav (talk) 17:57, 29 September 2008 (UTC)
I am worried about edits like these
The sub-headings which gives eye catching view and better understanding of derogatory remarks made by people holding key positions in India like ministers, people occupying gov. offices, journalists, politicians etc. have been removes, so that the para becomes unreadable and looks lengthy.

Image copyright problem
Thanks for your uploads. You've indicated that the following images are being used under a claim of fair use, but you have not provided an adequate explanation for why they meet Wikipedia's requirements for such images. In particular, for each page an image is used on, the image must have an explanation linking to that page which explains why it needs to be used on that page. Can you please check
- That there is a non-free use rationale on the image's description page for each article the image is used in.
- That every article it is used on is linked to from its description page.

Proposed deletion of Free Norrland
A proposed deletion template has been added to the article Free Norrland, suggesting that it be deleted according to the proposed deletion process. 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.

Orphaned non-free media (Image:Updologo.gif)
Thanks for uploading Image:Updologo.gif. The media description page currently specifies that it is non-free and may only be used on Wikipedia under a claim of fair use. However, it is currently orphaned, meaning that it is not used in any articles on Wikipedia. If the media was previously in an article, please go to the article and see why it was removed. You may add it back if you think that that will be useful. However, please note that media for which a replacement could be created are not acceptable for use on Wikipedia (see our policy for non-free media).
If you have uploaded other unlicensed media, please check whether they're used in any articles or not. You can find a list of 'image' pages you have edited by clicking on the "my contributions" link (it is located at the very top of any Wikipedia page when you are logged in), and then selecting "Image" from the dropdown box. Note that all non-free media not used in any articles will be deleted after seven days, as described on criteria for speedy deletion. Thank you. BJBot (talk) 05:03, 2 October 2008 (UTC)
CPI_national party
It is a good point. I do remember having read what I had added somewhere and I can back it up soon. I am also aware that it doesnt necessarily have to be right just because i can back it up. Whether CPI was a national party at that time is debatable. Docku:“what up?” 17:54, 2 October 2008 (UTC)
- Thanks for the source. Docku:“what up?” 18:22, 2 October 2008 (UTC)
- BSP and NCP are categorised here as national parties. As per the definition as seen here, they might very well be national parties, but they are not perceived as national parties in most of the India. Perception and definition can be different and guess you are right that we go by definition. Docku:“what up?” 18:44, 2 October 2008 (UTC)

Zydokomuna
Regarding this [2]. I tend to agree that to label KPP as "anti-Jewish" is unfair, after all KPP more than often came to deffend the Polish Jewish community against state-sponsored Polish antisemitism and anti-Jewish pogroms in the Second Polish Republic. It is also true, however, that the Jewish religious community and KPP were in strong opposition. I think that the both of these aspects can and should be reflected in the article. I'm confident we can find satisfying wording for this complex historical reality with a little bit of effort, and further discussions on talk. Cheers.M0RD00R (talk) 17:16, 5 October 2008 (UTC)
Warning
Please refrain from undoing other people's edits repeatedly. If you continue, you may be blocked from editing Wikipedia. Note that the three-revert rule prohibits making more than three reversions in a content dispute within a 24 hour period. Additionally, users who perform a large number of reversions in content disputes may be blocked for edit warring, even if they do not technically violate the three-revert rule. Rather than reverting, discuss disputed changes on the talk page. The revision you want is not going to be implemented by edit warring. Thank you.59.95.114.118 (talk) 08:38, 7 October 2008 (UTC)

3RR
You currently appear to be engaged in an edit war according to the reverts you have made on Anti-Stalinist left. Note that the three-revert rule prohibits making more than three reversions on a single page within a 24 hour period. Additionally, users who perform a large number of reversions in content disputes may be blocked for edit warring, even if they do not technically violate the three-revert rule. If you continue, you may be blocked from editing. Please do not repeatedly revert edits, but use the talk page to work towards wording and content that gains a consensus among editors. If necessary, pursue dispute resolution. --90.240.225.27 (talk) 18:41, 10 October 2008 (UTC)
- There's actually not much meaning in posting retaliatory 3rr notices. The point of the 3rr warning is to inform other, perhaps less experienced users of the existence of the 3rr rule. Since I posted a notice on your talk page four minutes earlier, it would be fair to assume that I was aware of the rule. --Soman (talk) 18:43, 10 October 2008 (UTC)

- The figures refer to SERP in 1906, which according to your article is the JSWP, and more specifically it has "one hundred were killed during the fighting, three hundred wounded, and about one thousand arrested." If you are interested, Frankel cites this as the source of the figures:

- I've got a book that briefly mentions relations between Cuba and Vanuatu. I don't think it says much, though. I'll have a look tomorrow. Thanks for reminding me! (Incidentally, I think Tonga established relations with the Soviet Union, primarily as a way of getting increased aid from a suddenly worried West. But you're right, Vanuatu was by far the closest to the Eastern Bloc, with a foreign policy resolutely independent from the West.) Aridd (talk) 23:25, 14 October 2008 (UTC)

Modification to Pinarayi Vijayan Page
I have noticed 2 things in the page, which I thought need modification.
1. V. S. Achithanandan's suspension from PB also was mentioned with that of Pinarayi Vijayan. But entry back to PB was mentioned only of Pinarayi. I think its intentional delivery of partial information. I have modified that point, please edit appropriately if you fee to do so.
2. Children's education. Agitation against self financing colleges was a very controversial and prolonged one. The Kuthuparamba firing was part of it. I think it is important to mention these things in relation to the fact that his children got education from self financing colleges. Here too, pls do "reasonable" editing if you feel so.

Speedy deletion of Uzhavar Uzhaippalar Katchi
A tag has been placed on Uzhavar Uzhaippalar Katchi requesting that it be speedily deleted from Wikipedia. This has been done under section A7 of the criteria for speedy deletion, because the article appears to be about about a person, organization (band, club, company, etc.) or web content, but it does not indicate how or why the subject is notable: that is, why an article about that subject should be included in an encyclopedia. Under the criteria for speedy deletion, articles that do not indicate the subject's importance or significance may be deleted at any time. Please see the guidelines for what is generally accepted as notable
If you think that this notice was placed here in error, you may contest the deletion by adding {{hangon}}
to the top of the page that has been nominated for deletion (just below the existing speedy deletion or "db" tag), coupled with adding a note on the talk page explaining your position, but be aware that once tagged for speedy deletion, if the article meets the criterion it may be deleted without delay. Please do not remove the speedy deletion tag yourself, but don't hesitate to add information to the article that would would render it more in conformance with Wikipedia's policies and guidelines. Lastly, please note that if the article does get deleted, you can contact one of these admins to request that a copy be emailed to you. RavichandarMy coffee shop 14:43, 23 October 2008 (UTC)
Maoists in Nepal to be renamed in Communist Party of Nepal
Hi. Have you heard of that? Check [4]. "Nepal Maoists ready to abandon Mao", 17 Oct 2008, 1800 hrs IST, TNN. -- Magioladitis (talk) 08:37, 24 October 2008 (UTC)
- Yes. But I think the article makes some mistakes in analysis. The nameshift has nothing to do with sino-nepalese relations. Its a condition but by Unity Centre-Masal for a merger. If such a name change would take place, we should move CPN(M) to Communist Party of Nepal and the old CPN to Communist Party of Nepal (1949). --Soman (talk) 08:41, 24 October 2008 (UTC)

Be VERY careful when moving radio station pages as there is no "-AM" in AM call signs, like in the move you made. If you wish to move a page, please go to WP:RM and request a move, an admin will move it for you to avoid problems like these. - NeutralHomer • Talk • October 25, 2008 @ 15:20
- I reacted rather strongly against the logic of letting a U.S. college AM station have precedence over an international federation with 130 million members, and thus took the bold step of doing an unilateral move. Honestly, I think the -am/(am) differentiation appears to be less problematic. --Soman (talk) 08:05, 26 October 2008 (UTC)
Liberal Party Bangladesh
I am puzzled about the Liberal Party Bangladesh, but I found Bangladesh Election Commission - Participating Parties and their symbols for Parliament Election 2001 http://www.ecs.gov.bd/English/PartySymble.php?&electionid=8&electionName=Parliament%20Election%202001 which suggests that a party by that name participated in the 2001 general elections. When I used the Google Chrome browser to try to visit Liberal Party Bangladesh at http://www.liberalbd.org/ , I got a warning that it was a malware site. I added a hoax tag to the article, which you can remove if you wish. See also Liberal Democratic Party (Bangladesh), which may be related. -- Eastmain (talk) 12:42, 27 October 2008 (UTC)

Hiya.. The problems I saw:
- 5 out of 6 references are to a single source; more sources are better
- Tone and language: terms like "government crackdown" and "repressive measures" are both POV and essentially weasel words; if repressive measures were taken, for example, then detail them with sources. [ roux ] [x] 08:22, 4 November 2008 (UTC)
right-wing politics
Hello, you think you can structure the right-wing politics article like you did the left-wing one? Bobisbob2 (talk) 04:19, 7 November 2008 (UTC)
- Thanks, but I'm sorry i won't. I don't have detailed knowledge of the subject, i don't know many of the details regarding the development of the term in question. --Soman (talk) 10:08, 7 November 2008 (UTC)
AfD nomination of Bundelkhand Mukti Morcha
I have nominated Bundelkhand Mukti Morcha, an article that you created, for deletion. I do not think that this article satisfies Wikipedia's criteria for inclusion, and have explained why at Wikipedia:Articles for deletion/Bundelkhand Mukti Morcha. Your opinions on the matter are welcome at that same discussion page; also, you are welcome to edit the article to address these concerns. Thank you for your time.

Wouldn't mind a chat...
... off wiki sometime. I keep falling over these great Cambodian history articles you've written - I don't even bother to check the history anymore - I just guess it was Soman. Send me a mail sometime and we can swap sources - I've got email enabled in my prefs. Just been reading Keo Meas, Nop Bophann, Um Neng and Cambodian parliamentary election, 1955 - keep up the great work. Cheers, --Paxse (talk) 15:46, 11 November 2008 (UTC)
- Absolutely, Cambodia and its history are fascinating (that's most of why I first came here in '96). Unfortunately, Cambodia coverage on Wikipedia is still poor - though thanks to you and others like User:Dr. Blofeld things are a hell of a lot better than they were 18 months ago. I love adding articles on Cambodia and improving the ones that we have. However, It's the two steps forward one step back aspect of working on Cambodia that frustrates the hell out of me. The pointless CSDs, PRODs and AfDs of Cambodian (or any little known third world country) topics that are just part of basic coverage - it shits me to tears. When I stumbled across WP:CSB in early 2007 it became one of the first (the first?) places I signed up on the 'pedia. Keep on keeping up the good fight against ignorance, narrow-mindedness, bigotry and plain old racism - it's appreciated by plenty of people both on and off wikipedia. Including me!

Orphaned non-free media (Image:Uvlogo.jpg)
Thanks for uploading Image:Uvlogo.jpg. The media description page currently specifies that it is non-free and may only be used on Wikipedia under a claim of fair use. However, it is currently orphaned, meaning that it is not used in any articles on Wikipedia. If the media was previously in an article, please go to the article and see why it was removed. You may add it back if you think that that will be useful. However, please note that media for which a replacement could be created are not acceptable for use on Wikipedia (see our policy for non-free media).
If you have uploaded other unlicensed media, please check whether they're used in any articles or not. You can find a list of 'image' pages you have edited by clicking on the "my contributions" link (it is located at the very top of any Wikipedia page when you are logged in), and then selecting "Image" from the dropdown box. Note that all non-free media not used in any articles will be deleted after seven days, as described on criteria for speedy deletion. Thank you. BJBot (talk) 05:09, 16 November 2008 (UTC)
I'd appreciate it if you help me keep an eye on this article, since an edit war seems to be unfolding. I might seek arbitration or other measures. Thanks. --Linkswechsel (talk) 16:45, 19 November 2008 (UTC)
Proposed deletion of Marxist Study Centre
A proposed deletion template has been added to the article Marxist Study Centre, suggesting that it be deleted according to the proposed deletion process because of the following concern:
- Notability has not been established. Unable to find significant coverage in secondary sources as per Wikipedia:Notability (organizations and companies).
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.
