Hi. When you recently edited Sean Ali Stone, you added links pointing to the disambiguation pages Salvador, Heaven & Earth and Graystone (check to confirm | fix with Dab solver). Such links are almost always unintended, since a disambiguation page is merely a list of "Did you mean..." article titles. Read the FAQ • Join us at the DPL WikiProject.

Atiyya ibn Sa'd reference ISBN

edit

Hi, Nersy! Back in 2011, you added a reference to Atiyya ibn Sa'd in this edit. Unfortunately, the ISBN you listed is invalid (probably a typo). I am having difficulty finding this online, as I can't read Persian, and there may be a transliteration issue. Do you still have access to this book, and would you be willing to double check the ISBN? Many thanks, Storkk (talk) 16:30, 7 February 2013 (UTC)Reply


Good day and many thanks for your attention. Please see details of the book in National library of Iran's website.name of book and Author in English. I can send you photo of the book also , you can read the book online here. .by the way , I can not solve ISBN problem. I don't know the reason. thanks again Nersy (talk) 21:33, 7 February 2013 (UTC)Reply
Thanks, Nersey! Although I can't read it, I think I was able to find the ISBN on the National Library of Iran's website link that you gave. Could you by any chance translate the line on that page that has a few numbers? They all look like ISBNs to me. Since the 13-digit one that I've added to the article is a valid ISBN, and all books published after 2007 should have a 13-digit ISBN I've just used that, but I'd like to be sure... the one on the left (ending in 557-6) is invalid, but the one on the right (ending in 556-8) is valid, so I don't know exactly what's going on. Many thanks, and I'm glad you have shown me that it's not a waste of time to contact the original contributor! Best regards, Storkk (talk) 00:48, 8 February 2013 (UTC)Reply

ArbCom elections are now open!

edit

Hi,
You appear to be eligible to vote in the current Arbitration Committee election. The Arbitration Committee is the panel of editors responsible for conducting the Wikipedia arbitration process. It has the authority to enact binding solutions for disputes between editors, primarily related to serious behavioural issues that the community has been unable to resolve. This includes the ability to impose site bans, topic bans, editing restrictions, and other measures needed to maintain our editing environment. The arbitration policy describes the Committee's roles and responsibilities in greater detail. If you wish to participate, you are welcome to review the candidates' statements and submit your choices on the voting page.

Introduction to contentious topics

edit

You have recently edited a page related to the Arab–Israeli conflict, 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.

Additionally, you must be logged-in, have 500 edits and an account age of 30 days, and are not allowed to make more than 1 revert within 24 hours on a page within this topic.

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.
