Greeks, Armenians

Latest comment: 14 years ago1 comment1 person in discussion

Hello, thanks for your contributions, but please don't make page moves of high-profile articles such as Greeks, Armenians etc. without prior discussion. This naming scheme has been discussed before, and the consensus was that the "... people" suffix should only be used where it is needed, i.e. where the name alone would otherwise be ambiguous (normally, between the name of an ethnic group and a language). Where the name alone is unambiguous, the page should remain at the simple title. Per our WP:NAME guidelines, a page should always have the simplest available name that is in common use, precise enough and unambiguous. Thank you, --Fut.Perf. ☼ 16:03, 6 October 2010 (UTC)Reply

Community restrictions

The article Northern Ireland, along with other articles relating to The Troubles, is currently subject to active arbitration remedies, as laid out during a previous Arbitration Enforcement case that closed in October 2007, and was amended by community consensus in October 2008. The current restrictions are:

All editors on Troubles-related articles are directed to get the advice of neutral parties via means such as outside opinions.
All articles related to The Troubles, defined as: any article that could be reasonably construed as being related to The Troubles, Irish nationalism, and British nationalism in relation to Ireland falls under WP:1RR (one revert per editor per article per day). When in doubt, assume it is related.
- Clear vandalism, or edits by anonymous IP editors, may be reverted without penalty
Editors who violate this 1RR restriction may be blocked without warning by any uninvolved administrator, even on a first offense.

If you are a new editor, or an editor unfamiliar with the situation, please follow the guidelines laid out in the above link. If you are unsure if your edit is appropriate, discuss it on this talk page first.

For maximum transparency, your attempt to add a demonym is a revert to a previous version. O Fenian (talk) 09:17, 18 November 2010 (UTC)Reply
