Romania article edit

Hi, I see a debate and edit war about the geography and gdp in the Romania page, could you check it? OrionNimrod (talk) 10:11, 2 January 2024 (UTC)Reply

Hi Super Dromaeosaurus, I see a sockpuppet is blocked in the Romania talk page, so can I restore that "Romania crossroad Central Europe..." etc? Is there a consensus? What do you think? OrionNimrod (talk) 16:04, 4 January 2024 (UTC)Reply
Yes, I believe there is consensus for this change. Super Dromaeosaurus (talk) 16:19, 4 January 2024 (UTC)Reply

Your statement against me edit

I believe it's ridiculous for you to accuse me of being inexperience just because I made few editing mistakes. I also think it's ridiculous that you get yourself involved in the arbitration request case I filed against two other editors especially since I was considering adding you as well as you also have been showing questionable biasness even going as far as to admit you are Pro-Ukraine which means you will mostly likely have a biasness for Ukraine when editing any article related to the war in Ukraine. I don't mind you making your case against me so long as is logical and has common sense. LegendaryChristopher (talk) 22:43, 3 January 2024 (UTC)Reply

Hello. I believe it's ridiculous for you to accuse me of being inexperience just because I made few editing mistakes. as in skipping completely Wikipedia's dispute resolution processes and going to the last resort option over an issue that isn't a violation of any policy in the first place? even going as far as to admit you are Pro-Ukraine which means you will mostly likely have a biasness for Ukraine when editing any article related to the war in Ukraine. if you have any evidence rather than a "likely" supposition as you say that I am not editing neutrally you are free to take any measures you deem necessary.

Gagauz referendum edit

Thank you Super Dromaeosaurus, I am writing this article: 1995 March Gagauzian referendum. On the aftermath section I used a Moldovan/Romanian article using Machine Translation. As I understand, Basarabeasca District and Burlăceni communes decided to have a referendum to join UTAG, which was rejected. Pdf: https://www.undp.org/sites/g/files/zskgke326/files/migration/md/Brosura_CICDE-Open-Talks.pdf page 51. But I couldnt find any more information. If you get any information why it was rejected, I would appreciate it. Also, if you are familiar with the subject, any addition would be great. Thanks! Joseph (talk) 08:24, 8 January 2024 (UTC)Reply

Hi Joseph, the source says that inhabitants of the city (not district) of Basarabeasca (which at the time was 31% ethnically Romanian, 22% Russian, 17% Gagauz and others) and the commune of Burlăceni (45% Gagauz as of 2004, I think the Gagauz population of a location had to be of at least 50% for the referendums to be held but I am not sure) requested referendums to join the Gagauz autonomy, but the Central Electoral Commission of Moldova rejected this. But this happened on November and December 1998, not in 1995, thus I think it should be made a passing mention in something like an "Aftermath" section. You mostly got it correct.
By the way, I think the title of the purported article should be different. It is not necessary to mention the month as no other referendums related to the Gagauz took place in 1995 as far as I know. It was also not a single referendum but individual referendums held in each Gagauz village. Lastly "Gagauzian" would refer to "of Gagauzia" rather than "of the Gagauz people" like "Gagauz" (think of it like the difference between "Kazakhstani" and "Kazakh", you can be an ethnic Kazakh in China but not a Kazakhstani is you're not from Kazakhstan). However Gagauzia did not exist yet as a legitimate entity, it is these referendums that did exactly that, so we shouldn't be talking about any Gagauzia in the title, legally these settlements were just regular parts of Moldova at the time. I would propose something like "1995 Gagauz autonomy referendums" or "1995 southern Moldova referendums". Super Dromaeosaurus (talk) 10:54, 8 January 2024 (UTC)Reply
I hadn't read the article before replying, you already did the aftermath section thing, yeah it all looks fine, just that I would rewrite the sentence we're dealing with like this: In November 1998, the local councils of the town of Basarabeasca and the commune of Burlăceni requested referendums to join the Gagauz autonomy, however this was rejected by Central Electoral Commission. (no date for when did the CEC reject it as according to the source two separate decisions were adopted and we don't know if the November one or the December one was the first to reject these requests). Super Dromaeosaurus (talk) 11:03, 8 January 2024 (UTC)Reply
Thanks, I will update the article accordingly and change the title when moving to the main space. Joseph (talk) 11:26, 8 January 2024 (UTC)Reply

new player edit

Hi, just I would like let you know that a brand new user highly obsessed with Ottoman battles (many Wallachian one) and fast rewrite all of them with the usually boring pattern: "Ottoman army was small and lost always few men and always won" Special:Contributions/Nabukednezar03 https://en.wikipedia.org/w/index.php?title=Siege_of_Svetigrad&diff=prev&oldid=1198694566 OrionNimrod (talk) 20:48, 24 January 2024 (UTC)Reply

Super Dromaeosaurus, he attacks more battle articles not just the Targoviste one. Perhaps he violated 3 reverts rule as well OrionNimrod (talk) 21:38, 24 January 2024 (UTC)Reply
@OrionNimrod He says very harsh words to you. Vbbanaz05 (talk) 21:41, 24 January 2024 (UTC)Reply
My best examples:
I am aware the medieval Ottoman sources: all writes only the victorious battles and keep silent about the lost one. The sultan is the God then enemy like
Hunyadi
is the Devil. For example they write Hungarian army was 200,000 at the
battle of Mohacs
and the victorious Ottoman just 100,000. It is quite unrealistic, considering Hungarian economy, avaliable troops, population etc.. Modern Hungarian historians say it was about 25,000 and not 200,000 as medieval Ottoman sources say to boost the sultan's victory more.
Talk:Siege of Belgrade (1456)#"Turks won the field battle"? I see a joke here that the Ottomans won 1456 Belgrade... Ottoman empire had many great victories, I really do not know why for some users need to change even the lost battles to victory... OrionNimrod (talk) 21:48, 24 January 2024 (UTC)Reply
I'm sorry for this, I'm a Turk like them, the reason why this happened is because Turks are a very nationalistic people. And when they see such things on the internet, they are used to getting angry very quickly and intervening immediately. Vbbanaz05 (talk) 22:33, 24 January 2024 (UTC)Reply
I find your apology very noble and I thank you for it but no need to apologize, as far as I know everyone in this thread is from the Balkans or its surroundings, I am sure all of us have seen fellow countrymen acting improperly on this site, explosive nationalism is common in this area.

Your Wisecracks On Israel-Hamar War Templates edit

Hi

Your input is demanded on the Israel-Hamas War Template:Talk

You removed the following under the guise of calling it "spam," some nerve!

https://en.wikipedia.org/w/index.php?title=Template%3ACampaignbox_Israel%E2%80%93Hamas_war&diff=1202351347&oldid=1202108956

You then removed them again, claiming these genocide and collective punishment related articles were "unrelated."

https://en.wikipedia.org/w/index.php?title=Template:Campaignbox_Israel%E2%80%93Hamas_war&action=history

You did the same on the big template, stating I was cluttering the template with "random" pages.

https://en.wikipedia.org/w/index.php?title=Template:Israel%E2%80%93Hamas_war&action=history&offset=&limit=500

You then removed them again, stating, "sigh. stop cluttering the template," in a sarcastic manner.

Finding consensus at Talk:Allegations of genocide in the 2023 Israeli attack on Gaza edit

Hey, thanks for pitching in at Talk:Allegations of genocide in the 2023 Israeli attack on Gaza. More attention on the subject helps the community come to a reasonable decision. But I noticed the input you provided is harsh in tone, which makes it difficult for the community to have a proper discussion and makes the entire subject less approachable. Make sure you're complying with all content policies when interacting with editors you disagree with, especially in contentious topics where infractions lead to sanctions much more quickly. It's understandable that emotions can run high in this area, but Wikipedia is not an appropriate place to moralize, and care should be taken not to make accusations about fellow editors' motives. Thebiguglyalien (talk) 21:58, 5 March 2024 (UTC)Reply

Thebiguglyalien, I do not agree. In some cases I've crossed the line and apologized. This was not such a case. All my comments were cool-headed and normal, even my reply to a reply to my original !vote calling it sickeningly apathetic. The worst thing I could see me having said is The overly emotional and victimising Israeli-Palestinian conflict topic area strikes again., maybe a bit crudely written but an accurate description of this topic area. Also I have not moralized nor made acussations about other editors' motives. Please refrain from messages like these in the future unless appropriate because I do not appreciate it at all. Super Ψ Dro 22:54, 5 March 2024 (UTC)Reply
I had assumed I had been singled out from a bunch of like three editors but apparently you decided to send this to, like, basically everyone who participated in that discussion. This case [1] stood out to me while looking through your recent contributions because I perfectly remembered that user had only written one comment which is perfectly neutral [2]. This is frankly disruptive. Super Ψ Dro 22:59, 5 March 2024 (UTC)Reply
Your initial comment significantly raised the temperature of the discussion, not only including that statement, but others like What a ridiculous claim and I cannot believe it is actually being supported and To do something as inflammatory as referring to something as a "genocide" with appeals to emotion rather than objective arguments about what do reliable sources say is unbelievable. I'm sure this wasn't intentional, but it's something you need to be aware of all the same. Regarding the comment you linked to, its entire premise is based on original research, using their own interpretation of an unresolved court case instead of secondary sources that interpret it. Thebiguglyalien (talk) 23:17, 5 March 2024 (UTC)Reply
I stand by everything I said on the second comment. It is indeed inflammatory and indeed the OP's original comment was based on appeals to emotion rather than sources. Regarding the first you might be right on my choice of words but I very much disagree, both on a personal level and from the perspective of what do I think the sources say, that Israel has attempted since the start a genocide as if they had all the plans laid out and were only waiting for a chance to apply them. But then that other user's comment was perfectly okay. If you consider them to have based their comment on OR there's not much you can do about it if they haven't breached civility policies. Though really this is a waste of time so let's not continue this. Super Ψ Dro 23:23, 5 March 2024 (UTC)Reply

Dahn and his continued attacks on me edit

Hi, Super Dromaeosaurus. Thank you for closing the discussion at ANI on User:Dahn. Unfortunately, it appears that they have decided to go with a path of full-on sarcasm, snark, and/or condescension with their last few edits on the talk page of the article that spawned their initial attack. I do not feel comfortable engaging with them, for reasons that will be obvious if you read their latest comments, and am hoping that an admin can look at that behavior and facilitate a situation where I can edit that article without fear of seeing the same kind of thing from Dahn again. Thanks. Fred Zepelin (talk) 19:28, 18 April 2024 (UTC)Reply

Hi Fred Zepelin, thanks for coming to my talk page. I was going to start here a discussing inviting Dahn too regarding the other pages but the thread has been reopened. Let's not keep commenting here on my talk page and have the central discussion split into two. But Dahn should read your concerns expressed here. This is a largely solved issue. Fred did wrong in content and Dahn in behaviour. The only thing left is to leave the grudges behind (and discussing a single edit at Talk:Luceafărul (poem) from what I see, as the second one was proven to have been a mistake).
