December 2009[edit]

Welcome to Wikipedia. Everyone is welcome to contribute to the encyclopedia, but when you add content (particularly if you change facts and figures) please cite a reliable source for the content you're adding or changing. This helps maintain our policy of verifiability. Take a look at Wikipedia:Citing sources for information about how to cite sources and the welcome page to learn more about contributing to this encyclopedia. Thank you.--John (talk) 18:39, 25 December 2009 (UTC)[reply]

Please cite your sources when you change dates of historic events, as you did in El Aaiún. Your edit has been reverted since you gave no explanation or reference for the edit. -kotra (talk) 19:39, 30 December 2009 (UTC)[reply]


Diplomatic missions of Saharawi[edit]

Thank you for your contributions to this article. I did find earlier a website that said there were Saharawi missions in Madagascar and India, but then I found something else that said India no longer recognised the Saharoud government, so I presume there is no presence in New Delhi.

I recall back in the 1990s there was an embassy or some kind of mission in Hanoi. Do you know anything about it?

On some of your more recent edits:

  • I am pretty sure there is no mission in Dili. The website you used as a source only mentioned that the Ambassador presented his credentials. Most ambassadors to Timor Leste are usually resident elsewhere, typically Jakarta or Canberra.
  • Speaking of which, I live in Canberra, and I am certain there is no Sahrawi office or delegation here.
  • If you wish to contribute in future, could I ask that you follow the same formatting as we use in all the other articles? We do not list types of missions separately. We group missions according to specific continents. We do not list cross-accreditations etc.

Thanks! Kransky (talk) 13:19, 9 May 2010 (UTC)[reply]

Hello!. I have no idea of that Sahrawi delegation in Hanoi you mention, I will search about it. In the case of India & Madagascar, both countries suspended relations with the SADR in 2000 & 2005, so the Sahrawi embassy in New Delhi was closed. I dunno if there's still a General delegation there. In the case of Timor Leste, I think there's a non-resident embassador (Timorese foreign affairs page ain't updated since 2004). Perhaps he lives in Australia, because he's also the representative for Australia & New Zealand (see the link[1]). Perhaps the General Delegation is in Melbourne,Perth or other major Australian city. The problem is that Australia dont have official diplomatic relations with the SADR. Regards.--HCPUNXKID (talk) 16:29, 9 May 2010 (UTC)
If you can find details about Hanoi, include it, but I suspect there has been a global shift away from recognising SADC.
The Diplomatic Missions by Country (DMBC) articles are only intended to list diplomatic missions (as their names imply), and not non-resident accreditations or honorary consulates. There is also a consistent format that we follow in terms of what information we include and how we present it. You can visit the other 180+ articles and see how this consistency is applied Kransky (talk) 11:02, 10 May 2010 (UTC)[reply]
I understand there is a consistent format to be used at the DMBC pages, but that cannot be an obstacle to bring as more info as we can (This is suppossed to be a encyclopedia, ain't it?). Also, the case of the SADR (as for example, the case of Palestine) is special, as it's a limited-recognition state, so it's not equal as, for example, Morocco or Algeria. P.D. I finally find that the Australia & New Zealand general delegation is based in Sidney.--HCPUNXKID (talk) 15:29, 10 May 2010 (UTC)
I appreciate your enthusiasm, but just because you have found a novel fact does not warrent its inclusion in Wikipedia (see WP:INDISCRIMINATE). Nor is it appropriate to propose a totally new style - the Wikipedia:Manual of Style expressly forbids edit-warring over styles. If you want to become involved with DMBC articles, may I suggest you first look at how these 180+ articles are developed together before proposing something revolutionary to the broader community.
Do you have evidence of a SADC presence in Sydney? I could only find the Australian Western Sahara Association (awsa.org.au), which is an advocacy group and does not claim to speak on behalf of the SADC government-in-exile, or have any other quasi-diplomatic status.
So, why does consistency matter? To demonstrate that all countries, irrespective of how well recognised or powerful they are, are treated equally in being represented on Wikipedia. Consider consistency as a means of protection, as equality and "one-rule-for-all" principles has helped prevent conflicts emerging by people claiming a certain article should not be included, or included in a different way. Kransky (talk) 09:00, 11 May 2010 (UTC) Kransky (talk) 09:00, 11 May 2010 (UTC)[reply]
Also, If you ask me to not change or delete info, I ask you for being more careful & not deleting references (for example the reference of the SADR embassy in South Africa).--HCPUNXKID (talk) 16:05, 11 May 2010 (UTC)[reply]
Thank you for accepting the formatting to this article. It is true that we encourage editors to cite sources, however if they have linked the page to a reliable primary source (such as the website of the country's foreign ministry where all their missions are listed) then this is not really necessary. In the SADR case because a comprehensive official list does not exist, we need to find other sources to confirm our facts and be accountable to them. As it is, I have searched for a SADC presence in Australia, and having not found anything, any mention of a SADC in Australia would definitely need some form of citation.
And thank you again for ceasing your bold edits to the rest of the articles. To get a consensus could you contact some of the editors and ask them what they think? I will see what the general mood is before casting my vote Kransky (talk) 10:06, 12 May 2010 (UTC)[reply]


Diplomatic missions - flags[edit]

Could I ask you to propose bold ideas first, on one or two articles first? T think you may have a reasonably good idea, but lets think it through first (I think it is more appropriate to refer to multilateral organisations by their formal names, not acronoms). Other editors may have a contrary view. Could you please revert back all the articles except one, and then seek a consensus from other established editors? Some editors are listed here: Category talk:Lists of diplomatic missions by sending country Kransky (talk) 15:24, 11 May 2010 (UTC)[reply]

User Warnings[edit]

HCPUNXKID, As a consequence of you reversion of List of diplomatic missions of the Sahrawi Arab Democratic Republic, and your decision not to provide a source proving Australia hosts a SADR diplomatic mission (or to provide a reason why a source was unnecessary), unfortunately I have been compelled to place a warning template on your talk page. Could you please provide evidence that Australia hosts a SADR mission? I have also flagged a warning template on your decision to change the formatting of the article without seeking consensus, when I have on two occasions raised this concern with you directly. Please refer to the General Principles of Wikipedia:Manual of Style.

Kransky (talk) 15:52, 11 May 2010 (UTC)[reply] 
As cited above, thank you for your cooperation. If this does not go ahead, could you please revert back all the changes you made? Kransky (talk) 10:06, 12 May 2010 (UTC)[reply]

Initiation of dispute resolution procedures[edit]

Evidently we cannot agree to what goes into this article, and I note a previous editor also had issues with your edits. This is no great drama - good faith disputes are a common occurance in Wikipedia, and there are processes in place to resolve them.

My argument is that you have not yet provided what I consider is reliable evidence that the SADC government has an official presence in a number of countries, particuarly countries which do not recognise the SADC's sovereignty in Western Sahara. Indeed I have actively searched for anything that could corraborate your claims, but I have found nothing, although I stand corrected on the SADC having a presence in Addis Ababa (I am still uncertain about the authority of the website that claims SADC missions in New York and Geneva, but I will let that slide).

You have repeatedly told me to refer to sources (like this website) which you claim proves your point, but I cannot see any evidence that the persons mentioned run are "general delegations", or even if they have any form of legitimacy within the SADC.

If you consider other DMBC articles are insufficiently referenced, your efforts to improve those articles by finding references or adding "citation required" annotations would be appreciated. Just because one article is not to-the-letter consistent with a policy doesn't justify the elimination of that policy.

I understand your keen interest in the rights of the Sawahari people, as you specify on your user page, but I do not believe their cause is advanced by misrepresenting particular persons as "general delegations", no matter how well meaning the intent. In recognising your good faith, might I also politely ask you review what exactly Vandalism is before making such accusations.

Consequently I will revert the article back, but I am happy to direct this dispute to a third party to have it resolved if you still want to press the issue. Since the crux of our disagreement is over your reference material, might I suggest the matter be directed to the Reliable Sources noticeboard? Alternatively Wikipedia:Third opinion could be another option. Any thoughts?

I will post this message on both our talk pages, and the article talk page. As indicated earlier please lets debate this on just one board. Kransky (talk) 05:50, 20 May 2010 (UTC)[reply]

The article Bouchraya Hammoudi Bayoun has been proposed for deletion because under Wikipedia policy, all biographies of living persons created after March 18, 2010, must have at least one source that directly supports material in the article.

If you created the article, please don't take offense. Instead, consider improving the article. For help on inserting references, see Wikipedia:Referencing for beginners or ask at Wikipedia:Help desk. Once you have provided at least one reliable source, you may remove the {{prod blp}} tag. Please do not remove the tag unless the article is sourced. If you cannot provide such a source within ten days, the article may be deleted, but you can request that it be undeleted when you are ready to add one.

This is an automated message from CorenSearchBot. I have performed a search with the contents of Abdelkader Taleb Omar, and it appears to be very similar to another Wikipedia page: Abdelkader Taleb Oumar. 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. If you are intentionally trying to rename an article, please see Help:Moving a page for instructions on how to do this without copying and pasting. If you are trying to move or copy content from one article to a different one, please see Wikipedia:Copying within Wikipedia and be sure you have acknowledged the duplication of material in an edit summary to preserve attribution history.

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. CorenSearchBot (talk) 16:52, 26 September 2010 (UTC)[reply]

Page titles[edit]

Hi, and thank you for your contributions to Wikipedia. It appears that you recently tried to give Abdelkader Taleb Oumar a different title by copying its content and pasting either the same content, or an edited version of it, into Abdelkader Taleb Omar. This is known as a "cut and paste move", and it is undesirable because it splits the page history, which is needed for attribution and various other purposes. Instead, the software used by Wikipedia has a feature that allows pages to be moved to a new title together with their edit history.

In most cases, once your account is four days old and has ten edits, you should be able to move an article yourself using the "Move" tab at the top of the page. This both preserves the page history intact and automatically creates a redirect from the old title to the new. If you cannot perform a particular page move yourself this way (e.g. because a page already exists at the target title), please follow the instructions at requested moves to have it moved by someone else. Also, if there are any other pages that you moved by copying and pasting, even if it was a long time ago, please list them at Wikipedia:Cut and paste move repair holding pen. Thank you.

RE: Western Sahara & Arab world protests[edit]

This is the last time I'm going to say this. There is no relation whats so ever to the current protests. Why are you so desperate to add it in? It doesn't matter if its similar and no one has probably heard of that little protest. The current protests started in Tunisia on December 18 and it spread from there so any protest that happened before doesn't belong on the page. By claiming it started on October, you are contradicting the article. Notice you are the only one trying to add it. There are plenty reasons on the talk page.TL565 (talk) 15:03, 22 February 2011 (UTC)[reply]

Are you blind? The argument is right in front of you. Look, I know you live there and are desperate to make the WS look like it made an impact but that still does not mean you can add incorrect info to the page. Unless you can find protests in the WS that happened after December 18, feel free to add it in. If you make the same edits again it will be regarded as spam. Everyone else seems to agree.TL565 (talk) 18:37, 23 February 2011 (UTC)[reply]
Owner of the page? Ask yourself that. I have people on my side, you don't. Nobody but you believes the protests started before the proper date. In that case, you might as well add all the protests that happened decades before because they are similar. Its not sacred its fact. What are you trying accomplish anyway? So far, nobody agrees with you. Why don't you add something about protests happening in WS now? I hear protests just started this month. Anyway I'm done with you. Don't comment on my page again.TL565 (talk) 20:34, 23 February 2011 (UTC)[reply]
Support --I agree these protests were in no way instigational or influential to the protests in Tunisia, Algeria, Egypt etc and therefore not relevant whatsoever, one person claiming it to be does not make it so, there is absolutely no factual proof/evidence of it being related to any of the other protests, like TL565 stated, if we are to include it we might as well include countless of other protests that predate the ones that started in Tunisia on December 18Kapoon129 (talk) 20:56, 8 March 2011 (UTC)[reply]

March 2011[edit]

You currently appear to be engaged in an edit war according to the reverts you have made on 2010–2011 Middle East and North Africa protests. Users are expected to collaborate with others and avoid editing disruptively.

In particular, the three-revert rule states that:

  1. Making more than three reversions on a single page within a 24-hour period is almost always grounds for an immediate block.
  2. Do not edit war even if you believe you are right.

If you find yourself in an editing dispute, use the article's talk page to discuss controversial changes; work towards a version that represents consensus among editors. You can post a request for help at an appropriate noticeboard or seek dispute resolution. In some cases it may be appropriate to request temporary page protection. If you continue to edit war, you may be blocked from editing without further notice. – Muboshgu (talk) 18:52, 12 March 2011 (UTC)[reply]

You can't use SPS or MAP excepting to cite Polisario and Moroccan gov's declarations and positions, neither can be reliable a blog or a website which shows a clear position in favor of one of the two sides.

Official language of the Sahrawi republic[edit]

On the Sahrawi Arab Democratic Republic a recurring issue going back over years is that some editors insist on including Spanish in the info box. This would be fine if Spanish was an official language but it is not: Constitution - Article 4:La langue arabe est la langue nationale officielle.[Trans: The Arab language is the national official language (no Spanish!)]. I am dropping you a note here because you previously edited this article and not many people are bothered with it so perhaps you could participate and help put down these attempts to include inaccurate information...Thanks. 109.76.199.226 (talk) 09:05, 2 May 2011 (UTC)[reply]

Category sorting[edit]

Since "Saharawi democracy activists" is a subcategory of "Saharawi people", there's no need to include both the master category and the sub; just one or the other would be fine. Cheers, Khazar (talk) 17:14, 4 June 2011 (UTC)[reply]

Sahrawi protests[edit]

Last year's protests ended in early November, with just a couple of fights at a high school thereafter. This year's protests began in late February after commentators and later Polisario figures observed that the Arab Spring was something that Sahrawis were watching closely and taking to heart. Considering the gap in between protests in early November and late February and the change in the political conditions of the region, I think it's absolutely appropriate to split the protests into two articles. -Kudzu1 (talk) 01:52, 8 June 2011 (UTC)[reply]

I disagree strongly. Your appreciation is based wether on your personal opinion or in the personal opinion of a unique non-neutral source, as it is the Moroccan director of Dahkla music festival, wich is not a reliable source (also, he dont say that the Dahkla events where the start of something new, he only said that he believed that they were influenced by the Arab Spring. Much people also think that the Arab Spring was influenced by the Gdeim Izik camp, so who influence who?). I repeat, there are not evidences to split the article in two parts. If you use the argument of the decline of violence and protest in the gap between late 2010 and early 2011, same thing should be done for example with Yemen (since January 2011 there had been ups & downs on the level of protest until the current unrest) and so on with other countries.

SADR[edit]

Dear HCPUNXKID

I have no double standards with regard to the SADR and the other unrecognized states you mentioned. Indeed, I'm not sure if I have worked on the list of recognizing states of the states you mentioned. I was just adding that most of the early states the recognized the SADR were communist or "third worldist" states and that one of the causes, I think, that successive US presidents backed Morocco. One can say they were right or wrong to do so, but I think showing what type of states backed the SADR gives the reader a better illustration of how the western Sahara conflict fit in with the larger ideological conflict between pro-western and third worldist and communist states during the late 1970s and 1980s.

I have been thinking that including the types of states that recognized the State of Palestine, Republic of China etc. would indeed also illustrate these (still ongoing) ideological conflicts, but I haven't had much time to devote to large scale Wikipedia projects lately as I have been on the cusp of graduating from college and attempting (perhaps futilely) to enter a graduate program in political science...a stressful and time consuming process.

While I have this opportunity, could you tell me something about how the Western Sahara issue is perceived in Spain? I perceive that it is still a sensitive issue, but its ideological and political significance to domestic Spanish audiences seems unclear from what I have read online.

If this is the first article that you have created, you may want to read the guide to writing your first article.

You may want to consider using the Article Wizard to help you create articles.

A tag has been placed on Sahrawi national football team, requesting that it be speedily deleted from Wikipedia. This has been done under section G4 of the criteria for speedy deletion, because the article appears to be a repost of material that was previously deleted following a deletion debate, such as at articles for deletion. Under the specified criteria, where an article has substantially identical content to that of an article deleted after debate, and any changes in the content do not address the reasons for which the material was previously deleted, it may be deleted at any time.

If you think that the page was nominated in error, contest the nomination by clicking on the button labelled "Click here to contest this speedy deletion" in the speedy deletion tag. Doing so will take you to the talk page where you can explain why you believe the page should not be deleted. You can also visit the page's talk page directly to give your reasons, but be aware that once a page is tagged for speedy deletion, it may be removed without delay. Please do not remove the speedy deletion tag yourself, but do not hesitate to add information that is consistent with Wikipedia's policies and guidelines. If the page is deleted, you can contact one of these administrators to request that the administrator userfy the page or email a copy to you. Sir Sputnik (talk) 23:21, 28 March 2012 (UTC)[reply]

Western Sahara[edit]

I would like to express my appretiation regarding your work on Western Sahara War articles - it is a really blessed thing, somebody is finally doing a serious job on it. I did begin to organize it, but it has been pretty hard task for me alone, especially considering the conflict wasn't on my top priorities list. Keep on.Greyshark09 (talk) 21:17, 23 July 2012 (UTC)[reply]

Thank you very much for your comments, it's good to see that some people appretiate the Western Sahara War work. I agree that it's a difficult task, as there's not so much information on the issue, and sometimes it's contradictory or disputed, so every effort to made the articles better is welcomed.

Replaceable fair use File:Aliyen kentaoui.jpg[edit]

Thanks for uploading File:Aliyen kentaoui.jpg. I noticed the description page specifies that this media item is being used under a claim of fair use, but its use in Wikipedia articles fails the first non-free content criterion in that it illustrates a subject for which a freely licensed media item could be found or created that provides substantially the same information or which could be adequately covered with text alone. If you believe this media item is not replaceable, please:

  1. Go to the file description page and edit it to add {{di-replaceable fair use disputed}}, without deleting the original replaceable fair use template.
  2. On the file discussion page, write the reason why this media item is not replaceable at all.

Alternatively, you can also choose to replace this non-free media item 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 creating new media yourself (for example, by taking your own photograph of the subject).

If you have uploaded other non-free media, consider checking that you have specified how these media 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 the non-free content policy. If you have any questions please ask them at the Media copyright questions page. Thank you. MilborneOne (talk) 20:04, 8 November 2012 (UTC)[reply]

Hello, HCPUNXKID,

I wanted to let you know that there's a discussion about whether Spit No Evil should be deleted. Your comments are welcome at Wikipedia:Articles for deletion/Spit No Evil .

If you're new to the process, articles for deletion is a group discussion (not a vote!) that usually lasts seven days. If you need it, there is a guide on how to contribute. Last but not least, you are highly encouraged to continue improving the article; just be sure not to remove the tag about the deletion nomination from the top.
