Russo-Ukrainian War and Opposition Platform — For Life
editYou can see from the very self article, how the conflict it's not "perceived", it is factual and ongoing, "ceasefire" has been invoked and are being invoked continuously, and Russia's intervention has been condemned by most of the United Nations community.
Yours seems like a non-neutral and revisionist modification, politically interested at worst. Do not insist. Lone Internaut (talk) 18:19, 19 October 2020 (UTC)
- @Lone Internaut and Lone Internaut: Its a western centric concept and a Western point of view. Russia is not CURRENTLY in a state of war with Ukraine and there is no CURRENT intervention. Please provide sources that russia is currently intrvening in Ukraine.
- As I imagined: obviously it's all an "interpretation of the West", not the blatant truth under everyone's eyes... sure, of course. You seem indeed blatantly politicized. You find all the neutral (and reliable) sources in the article itself that I linked to you, it is you who must give the sources of how Russia is not doing intervention in Ukraine - both Crimean and Donbass.
- If you insist, I'll have to bring the thing to the attention of the project or other users to generate a consensus. And believe me, I don't think they're going to buy the "bad and ugly West that lies" story - of course, because it's Russian-interested revisionism. Lone Internaut (talk) 18:44, 19 October 2020 (UTC)

Hans Globke
editHi @F.Alexsandr: Could you not a find a reference for that section instead of removing it, and even contacting me and I could have had a go at getting a reference. That section comes straight from the very well-written German article. scope_creepTalk 15:31, 20 February 2021 (UTC)
- @Scope creep: I have scoured the German article, there was no information about motivations of the Soviets. The dismissive statement about them not caring about Globkes career in the Nazi past, and only caring because of his position in FRG is descriptive anyways and sounds like original research not grounded in any documentary evidence.

Starship price
editDiff. Please give a timestamp. I won't watch that one hour video again now - I'm quite certain you misunderstand something, because Musk said it would be cheaper than Falcon 1. Using the 2016 presentation is questionable anyway, that's still the carbon fiber model with very different parameters than what SpaceX is building now. --mfb (talk) 20:40, 10 June 2021 (UTC)
- @Mfb and Mfb: on 43:16 in this video https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=H7Uyfqi_TE8&ab_channel=SpaceX you can clearly see on the screen 62 million dollars per flight. To be honest I think that there should be no cost estimates in the infobox at all, scince all of this is speculation on behalf of spaceX, but if 2 million aspirational number deserves to be in the infobox, i think that this number deserves too. F.Alexsandr (talk) 10:57, 11 June 2021 (UTC)
- That is for a flight to Mars, which includes multiple launches of the system, and the main cost comes from the ship going to Mars because it cannot be reused often. The tanker is given as $8M for 5 flights, or $1.6M/flight, while the booster has $11 for 6 flights, or ~$1.8M/flight. Add both and we get $3.4 million per launch to Earth orbit. Which isn't too far off from the 2 million optimistic goal. --mfb (talk) 23:41, 11 June 2021 (UTC)
- @Mfb and Mfb: You are doing original research. All of this is pure speculation on your behalf. Once again, both numbers were provided by SpaceX, both numbers deserve to be up there. Or neither. F.Alexsandr (talk) 11:38, 12 June 2021 (UTC)
- There is no OR about the price being for a flight to Mars (it's on the slide!), which is not what the infobox is about. Quoting it there is just wrong. I explained the slide to you here on your talk page. WP:OR applies to articles, not to user talk pages. Ignore that explanation if you don't like it, but save the article from completely wrong information please. --mfb (talk) 12:58, 12 June 2021 (UTC)

Clarification on the draft: Flux_Malaysia
editClarification on the draft: Flux_Malaysia
edithttps://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Draft:Flux_Malaysia
Dear @F.Alexandr,
I want to express my gratitude for taking the time to review my article, even though the outcome was less favorable than I had hoped. I would really like to get some insights if you do not mind sharing as I am new in publishing articles and after 3 months of efforts it is kind of disappointing that I could not get the article approved still.
I did have learned and improved but now stuck at the reference where i am not sure what is wrong as i did check notable regulations and reference guide and i cannot locate why it has been declined still.
One point about the reference is that as this is a new type of business in Malaysia so finding completely independent article on Flux is difficult but i did see some competitor's post has been approved even with not too much independent references which i am giving example below.
https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Carsome
This even got approved with their CEO interview while mine got rejected.
It will be very helpful if you can help in guiding where exactly to change and get the article approve to publish. AfnanzafarBD (talk) 09:22, 8 November 2023 (UTC)
- Hello, AfnanzafarBD. The existence of a car sharing business or used cars business does not guarantee that it will automatically be notable for inclusion to Wikipedia. Carsome, which you gave as an example, is also on the verge of being notable, however, as one of the articles states, the company’s valuation is US$1.3 billion making it one of the largest tech unicorns in Malaysia, it is also older than Flux.
- As you also know, reliable independent sources are required for the article to be accepted, which is severely lacking from your article. You can try supporting your article by Malaysian language sources, if you think there is not much data in English.
- If you think that reviewers are unfair, and you still think this company is notable enough, you can ask around on WP:MALAYSIA. to find advice and support for your case, although I dont think you will find much success. F.Alexsandr (talk) 10:20, 8 November 2023 (UTC)

An article you recently created, Zabralo, does not have enough sources and citations as written to remain published. It needs more citations from reliable, independent sources.

Information about Wikiproject Military History Assessment
editNote at the top of the assessment request page: “Editors can self-assess articles against the five B-class criteria (FAQ) up to and including C-Class.” The link to the page about the five criteria and other frequently asked questions is Wikipedia:WikiProject Military history/Assessment/B-Class FAQ. If you assess an article as C class, you will need to show “no” to one of the five criteria on the article talk page. That would likely be completeness of coverage, but could be one of the other four.
An outline of the assessment process overall, for all levels or grades of assessment, is shown at [[1]]. There is FAQ information near the bottom of the page.
The assessment template must be used to put an assessment on the article talk page as part of the process. The full template project banner and some explanation and information are at Template:WikiProject Military history. The full banner shown on that page is not used in its entirety because only a few task forces would apply to any particular article. I have never seen the portal parameters used. I feel confident in ignoring them.
The linked template information page in the previous paragraph has some information that seems superfluous when you get to know how to place a template. It is a good idea to become familiar with it, however, because it has some useful information which may not be apparent on other pages.
I put the template on talk pages manually because the template link seems to put unnecessary information on the page, including criteria explanation after the criteria numbers. That means a user must be sure to fill in, or eliminate, any parameters or wordings that would not produce an accurate template for a particular article. Some users may put those explanations in with a blank or incomplete project banner as notice of the requirements for each criteria
This is the template that I used on the Zemledeliye (minelaying system) talk page - with nowiki code that is only used here to prevent a full completed template itself from showing on this page. The nowikis are not used on the article talk pages. {{WPMILHIST|class=B|B1=yes|B2=yes|B3=yes|B4=yes|B5=yes|Russian=yes|Cold-War=yes}} This can be copied and used on other pages. If an article is start or C class, the class item is changed to “start” or “C” and criteria are marked “no” as required for each level. For a stub, “stub” would be show after “class=” and either all the criteria are marked no or they are blank. They don't even need to be listed in a stub template but sometimes they are placed as a convenience for later reviewers.
Military history article assessments are slightly different than the general article assessment criteria and information. If other projects also assess an article, the process and criteria might differ, although they would be mostly the same.
Note that any military history project coordinator can change a self-assessment. An experienced user can do so as well. If the person who self assesses disagrees with such a reassessment, the writer can request that a coordinator perform a further review to decide the appropriate assessment class. The MILHIST bot also assesses articles up to B class. A coordinator runs the bot monthly. I am not sure how the bot picks up unassessed articles to assess. (There is a category for articles needing assessment. The bot may look at that. There may be yet another way the bot finds them. I mention this because I think the bot may not pick up all unassessed military history articles or military history articles where other projects are also interested.) Coordinators can, and every month usually do, downgrade one or more assessments made by the bot.
I should add that there may be situations where a self-assessment as "start" is preferable or more accurate than C. You can ask for a higher assessment (C or B) immediately on the assessment request page if you think it deserves one or use it as a starting point for your own later additions and improvements. Note the requirements, and possible needed upgrading, on the general assessment information pages cited.
If this information is incomplete or not understandable in some respect, let me know. I will try to add to it or reword it. Donner60 (talk) 03:37, 12 December 2023 (UTC)
- Thank you very much for indepth explanation F.Alexsandr (talk) 11:47, 12 December 2023 (UTC)
- My proofreading was not up to par. I left out "of" in "outline of assessment." I had "criteria explanations" twice when "criteria numbers" should have been the second phrase in the sentence. I had a stray word "for" which I deleted. Sorry for my lapses in proofreading. I changed the errors. I hope it was understandable enough but if any of the errors and the double criteria explanations error in particular was confusing, it should now be fixed.

Hi F.Alexsandr,
Thank you so much for reviewing the wiki draft and it would be much appreciated if you could provide more details about the references I used in the article.
Would you mind pointing out which reference doesn't have the significant coverage about the subject? It would help me to understand more about why the current refernces don't match the requirement.
Thank you.
Best regards, -thedoor2009

Replaceable non-free use File:Татьяна Фрунзе.jpg
editThanks for uploading File:Татьяна Фрунзе.jpg. I noticed that this file is being used under a claim of non-free use. However, I think that the way it is being used fails the first non-free content criterion. This criterion states that files used under claims of non-free use may have no free equivalent; in other words, if the file could be adequately covered by a freely-licensed file or by text alone, then it may not be used on Wikipedia. If you believe this file is not replaceable, please:
- Go to the file description page and add the text
{{Di-replaceable non-free use disputed|<your reason>}}
below the original replaceable non-free use template, replacing<your reason>
with a short explanation of why the file is not replaceable. - On the file discussion page, write a full explanation of why you believe the file is not replaceable.
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, per the non-free content policy. If you have any questions, please ask them at the Media copyright questions page. Thank you.
This bot DID NOT nominate any of your contributions for deletion; please refer to the history of each individual page for details. Thanks, FastilyBot (talk) 10:00, 24 December 2023 (UTC)

I have left you a comment regarding your rejection of my article Draft:Aaron Lehrian. You said it does not pass Wikipedia:MUSICBIO; however, I believe it passes #7 (Aaron is one of the prominent musicians representing Savannah, GA and the Southeast jazz scene), and definitely passes #9 (he has won first and second places in major international music competitions).

Request edit to Zircon missile
editHi, can you please change the last sentence in the deployment section to "Major Illia Yevlash, a spokesman for the Armed Forces of Ukraine (AFU), *claimed* that Patriot and SAMP/T systems *are capable of destroying* the Zircon in the terminal phase when the Zircon *allegedly* slows to Mach 4.5, *according to Ukraine*"
The source doesn't say that the Patriot actually intercepted the missile, but that it can. So it's misleading. The page is protected so I can't make the edit. This is far more neutral and accurate.
Thanks. 82.0.40.72 (talk) 14:05, 4 May 2024 (UTC)

Introduction to contentious topics
editYou have recently edited a page related to the Balkans or Eastern Europe, a topic designated as contentious. This is a brief introduction to contentious topics and does not imply that there are any issues with your editing.
A special set of rules applies to certain topic areas, which are referred to as contentious topics. These are specially designated topics that tend to attract more persistent disruptive editing than the rest of the project and have been designated as contentious topics by the Arbitration Committee. When editing a contentious topic, Wikipedia’s norms and policies are more strictly enforced, and Wikipedia administrators have special powers in order to reduce disruption to the project.
Within contentious topics, editors should edit carefully and constructively, refrain from disrupting the encyclopedia, and:
- adhere to the purposes of Wikipedia;
- comply with all applicable policies and guidelines;
- follow editorial and behavioural best practice;
- comply with any page restrictions in force within the area of conflict; and
- refrain from gaming the system.
Editors are advised to err on the side of caution if unsure whether making a particular edit is consistent with these expectations. If you have any questions about contentious topics procedures you may ask them at the arbitration clerks' noticeboard or you may learn more about this contentious topic here. You may also choose to note which contentious topics you know about by using the {{Ctopics/aware}} template.

Speedy deletion nomination of Soviet and Russian aerial bombs
editIf 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 Soviet and Russian aerial bombs requesting that it be speedily deleted from Wikipedia. This has been done under section G12 of the criteria for speedy deletion, because the page appears to be an unambiguous copyright infringement. This page appears to be a direct copy from https://dversam.ru/en/fugasnye-aviabomby.html, https://copyvios.toolforge.org/?lang=en&project=wikipedia&oldid=1223715591&action=compare&url=https%3A%2F%2Fdversam.ru%2Fen%2Ffugasnye-aviabomby.html, and https://copypatrol.wmcloud.org/en?id=cf0c892c-d19e-4558-b915-41bedd5fc021. For legal reasons, we cannot accept copyrighted text or images taken from other web sites or printed material, and as a consequence, your addition will most likely be deleted. You may use external websites or other printed material as a source of information, but not as a source of sentences. This part is crucial: say it in your own words. Wikipedia takes copyright violations very seriously and persistent violators will be blocked from editing.
If the external website or image belongs to you, and you want to allow Wikipedia to use the text or image — which means allowing other people to use it for any reason — then you must verify that externally by one of the processes explained at Wikipedia:Donating copyrighted materials. The same holds if you are not the owner but have their permission. If you are not the owner and do not have permission, see Wikipedia:Requesting copyright permission for how you may obtain it. You might want to look at Wikipedia's copyright policy for more details, or ask a question here.
If you think this page should not be deleted for this reason, you may contest the nomination by visiting the page and clicking the button labelled "Contest this speedy deletion". This will give you the opportunity to explain why you believe the page should not be deleted. However, be aware that once a page is tagged for speedy deletion, it may be deleted without delay. Please do not remove the speedy deletion tag from the page yourself, but do not hesitate to add information in line with Wikipedia's policies and guidelines. // Timothy :: talk 22:25, 13 May 2024 (UTC)
May 2024 - unreliable sources
editGreetings! Please don't use unreliable sources in Wikipedia articles, as you did in [2]. RIA, Ukrinform and some other sources you used are unreliable. Thanks! ManyAreasExpert (talk) 19:02, 14 May 2024 (UTC)
- Those are not unreliable sources. They are allowed on wikipedia, please stop blanket deleting all russian sources from the page, you give no reason for this. F.Alexsandr (talk) 19:14, 14 May 2024 (UTC)
- Please don't claim they are reliable without proof, thanks! ManyAreasExpert (talk) 19:35, 14 May 2024 (UTC)
- The burden of proof that they are unreliable is on you. RG.ru and RIA Novosti are cited all over wikipedia, and ВЗГЛЯД.РУ, while dubious, is not a deprecated source, and only quotes a Ukrainian official. The only actual unreliable source you deleted is Lenta.ru. Please restore other citations. F.Alexsandr (talk) 19:57, 14 May 2024 (UTC)
- Wikipedia articles should be based on reliable sources WP:RS , and if you are claiming they are reliable, you need to prove it. RIA is not reliable WP:RIANOVOSTI, and other's reliability is dubious. ManyAreasExpert (talk) 20:41, 14 May 2024 (UTC)

Warning
editHello. Your edits removing categories of Russian war crimes and murder in Ukraine are a gross violation of neutrality and POV-pushing, particularly with edit summaries either apparently denying the crimes [4] [5] [6] [7] [8] [9], or using false edit summaries to hide the categories' removal [10] [11] [12]. If you continue this I will report you to WP:ANI. These are not the edits of someone here to build an encyclopedia. If you have an issue with the categories start a discussion, and if you feel like you need to change ten articles maybe it's not them the ones that have an issue. Maybe you have the problem.
