You are in danger of violating the three-revert rule on List of unrecognized countries. Please cease further reverts or you may be blocked from further editing. Telex 13:06, 28 April 2006 (UTC)Reply

Hello Erdogan Cevher. The best thing for the TRNC is if we stick with international convention, especially when it comes to recognition. Even if it is just about de facto independent from the recognised Republic of Cyprus and suffers from the embargo, if we distort the facts of recognition, we are not doing any favors to the TRNC. I hope you see my point my friend. Politis 13:28, 28 April 2006 (UTC)Reply
Please refrain from adding nonsense to Wikipedia, as you did to Cyprus. It is considered vandalism. If you would like to experiment, use the sandbox. —Khoikhoi 07:40, 4 May 2006 (UTC)Reply
Please stop. If you continue to vandalize pages, you will be blocked from editing Wikipedia. —Khoikhoi 06:24, 8 May 2006 (UTC)Reply
 
This is your last warning. The next time you vandalize a page, you will be blocked from editing Wikipedia. —Khoikhoi 06:26, 8 May 2006 (UTC)Reply

You have been temporarily blocked for violation of the three-revert rule. Please feel free to return after the block expires, but also please make an effort to discuss your changes further in the future. The duration of the block is 12 hours. William M. Connolley 13:04, 9 May 2006 (UTC)Reply

You're unhappy about being blocked, it seems. But from your mail, it looks like you don't understand WP:3RR. I really suggest you read it, carefully William M. Connolley 18:51, 9 May 2006 (UTC)Reply

I'm sorry for giving you those warnings and edit waring with you. Please accept my apologies. I just wanted to explain some things to you about a very important Wikipedia policy, NPOV. It stands for Neutral Point Of View. Basically, we can't have anything biased towards the Turkish or Greek POV on Wikipedia. Let me give you an example: Nagorno-Karabakh. Most Armenains living there would want to describe what happened in the early 1990s as "liberation". However, the Azeris would call it "occupation". The only neutral option that I can think of is "control". That's how things work at Wikipedia, we're not supposed to take anyone's side, no matter which one we are personally on. Now, as you said, "you say Turkish Peace Action, I say invasion". This time I can't think of a word that is a neutral alternative, so our best option right now is to give both, and put it like this: Turkish invasion/Peace Action of Cyprus. I hope you understand, and once again, I'm sorry for the conflict that I got into with you, I was in a bad mood. Kolay gelsin. —Khoikhoi 05:33, 10 May 2006 (UTC)Reply

vanity pages not for wikipedia

edit

Please note that wikipedia is not for your own personal vanity pages, unless you are a notability - the page Erdogan Cevher will therefore be deleted. However, you are welcome to put information about yourself on your user page.

User notice: temporary 3RR block

====Regarding reversions[2] made on May 10 2006 (UTC) to List of unrecognized countries====

 

You have been temporarily blocked for violation of the three-revert rule. Please feel free to return after the block expires, but also please make an effort to discuss your changes further in the future. The duration of the block is 24 hours.

Please don't just keep reverting. You'll only get blocked, and the blocks will get longer. You need to discuss this wiuth your fellow editors.

Edrogan - I point you to the Talk:List of unrecognised countries page. This is a forum for discussing disputed changes to the page. In Wikipedia, it is good practice to discuss changes there, rather than repeatedly chaniging the aritcle. You will find that people are more open to your suggestions if you use that page to explain and discuss them. --Robdurbar 07:31, 12 May 2006 (UTC)Reply

List of Unrecognized Countries

edit

If you look at the current text, you'll note that some of your changes have been incorporated. For example, it now mentions the actions of the UN, and notes that Turkey is the only 'sovereign state' to recognize the TRNC (the other entities that recognize it are not sovereigns). If you try and contribute in a way that interacts with the community and make justified or explained changes, you may find that people are more open to your suggestions.

However, if you continue to revert without discussion and in contradiction to the consensus developed on the [[Talk page it will only lead to further Three revert rule blocks that will be increasingly longer, which is something that nobody wants.

I implore you to re-read those links that you were given when welcomed by User:Tijuana Brass, in order that you better understand what Wikipedia is about. --Robdurbar 12:52, 15 May 2006 (UTC)Reply
