Using the editing page

Using the editing page isn't all that hard, even if you are learning German; I am learning French and I don't have much of a problem. Pretty much all of the code is already there, you just have to change it. I never learned any type of code whatsoever, but Lua is easy in comparison with everything else.

Let's say you want to change a village from rebel-held to contested between rebels and ISIS. First, find the name of the town. Second, open the editing window and use the 'find' command to find the town. (Ctrl+F) Then find the part of the line of code that says "Location dot lime.svg". To change it to contested, replace that text with "80x80-lime-black-anim.gif". This tells the code to display the rebels-ISIS contested icon. Finally, in the edit summary box, paste your source for the edit (it can't be a map and must be considered reliable), and click save page. That's it.

Yes, you do need patience, not only with the code but mostly with other editors. Adding towns and fixing coordinates is my passion on this map, and that can take more than 10 minutes sometimes. But you get used to it.

I'd be interested to hear about your 'anti-Jihadist, but pro-IS' sentiments. I don't care that much unless it causes you to be biased in editing the map. I would like to understand why the other editors edit the map the way they do, mostly in support of one side. Any dialogue is appreciated. Let me know if you have any questions or need further help with editing. Pbfreespace3 (talk) 20:50, 1 September 2015 (UTC)

Many thanks for the info,Pbfreespace3, and I'll be sure to help whenever I can, or whenever my internet permits (I live in the middle of the woods, and the internet here is trash in the Summer, but should get much, much better when the leaves start falling off the trees).

As for my anti-jihadist but pro-IS sentiments; I want the Islamic State to win. I see that as the best possible outcome for the civil war. If they win, they knock out Bashar al-Assad, as well as the Shia government in Iraq. If they took care of Bashar al-Assad, Israel would almost certainly become involved, and getbrid of the IS government in the country, and whatever's left of the rebels would have power turned over to them. In Iraq, to prevent an Islamic State being created there, one of the goals of AQI (IS), Israel and the United States would invade, and topple the relatively weak jihadist givernment.

We'd pretty much have a complete reenactment if the Secongld Gulf War (the 2003 invasion of Iraq), but, hopefully, we'd be smart enough to leave behind a force to help deal with the insurgency that would come out of the invasion. There are, however, three big problems with this outcome: The FSA and Kurds are in an alliance. They'd allow the creation of a Kurdish state, or, at least, autonomous area on the border with Turkey. That could trigger Turkish military action. Next, if Israel invaded, that would worsen Israeli-Turkiah relations, and turkey has effectively stated their opposition to Israel. Lastly, if Israel aided in the invasion of Iraq, that could trigger a confrontation with Iran.

There's really no way this war can end with only Syria and Iraq being ravaged. I think this war is destined to turn into a large scale international conflict, and not one involving simple pest control (air strikes).DaJesuZ (talk) 12:42, 3 September 2015 (UTC)

Interesting views. You ultimately want ISIS to win so it can lose. Very complex strategy. I really don't care if individual users are biased or not, only that they edit using the rules. Even if someone consistently edits in favor of one side, as long as they follow procedure and use good sources, that's fine. I think that the Sunnis should have their own government, the Shias their own state, and the Kurds theirs. I don't care how that is reached, as long as outright war crimes are not committed.

Aleppo Infantry School

Why did you change the Aleppo Infantry School to black without any edit summary? An anti-Assad source was provided for the change, so why did you revert it? 2601:C7:8303:22DC:1DB4:BFDC:1999:782E (talk) 00:35, 15 October 2015 (UTC)

Argument is still ongoing regarding the school, as neither SOHR or al-Masdar have said the regime currently holds it. The only things provided about it were social media posts, which cannot be used as sources. I reverted the edit based on the lack of sufficient ata to back up the claim that the regime holds the infantry academy.DaJesuZ (talk) 02:10, 15 October 2015 (UTC)

April 2016

Hello, I'm Laberkiste. I noticed that you made a comment on the page Talk:Cities and towns during the Syrian Civil War with this edit that didn't seem very civil, so I removed it. Wikipedia needs people like you and me to collaborate, so it’s one of our core principles to interact with one another in a polite and respectful manner. If you think I made a mistake, or if you have any questions, you can leave me a message on my talk page. Thanks. Laber□^T 04:04, 4 April 2016 (UTC)

Please do not attack other editors, as you did at User talk:Laberkiste with this edit. Comment on content, not on contributors. Personal attacks damage the community and deter users. Please stay cool and keep this in mind while editing. Thank you. ~Oshwah~^{(talk) (contribs)} 09:34, 4 April 2016 (UTC)

Laber□~Oshwah~ But this editor continued persaonal attack in my adress.here So I beg to protect me from the attacks of this editor. Sûriyeya (talk) 09:55, 4 April 2016 (UTC)

Never attached you, personally, or threw any insults towards you. I attacked your ideas and beliefs. Don't come to this page in an attempt to have me removed, to make it easier for you to push an agenda.

Go read the entire discussion, Oshwah. Go enlighten yourself, a bit, regarding what the fuck's going on. DaJesuZ (talk) 10:09, 4 April 2016 (UTC)
