2009 Diyala Province Bombing

edit

Is 2009 Diyala Province Bombing the same as this 23 April 2009 Iraqi suicide attacks. If it is we should probably redirect it. Otisjimmy1 (talk) 20:41, 24 April 2009 (UTC)Reply

Forget it, it's not I looked it up my bad. Otisjimmy1 (talk) 20:50, 24 April 2009 (UTC)Reply

Hi

Please keep an eye on Mir-Hossein Mousavi. It's a WP:BLP and any poorly-sourced or speculative items (based on opinion pieces or editorials) should be removed instantly. --Sina111 (talk) 13:13, 12 May 2009 (UTC)Reply

Mir-Hossein Mousavi

edit

In your last edit you removed a number of references, may I ask what the cause behind the removals was?--  Rmzadeh  ►  02:39, 2 June 2009 (UTC)Reply

I checked the history again and what you removed, you added an improved in the new category... I didn't see that the other night.. I had one of those off nights. thanks for improving the article --  Rmzadeh  ►  14:58, 3 June 2009 (UTC)Reply

Sohrab Aarabi

edit

Hi Sinooher, I've redirected the Sohrab Aarabi page to 2009 Iranian election protests#Casualties in the same manner that Death of Naser Amirnejad is now. For the reasons why, please see Talk:Death of Naser Amirnejad, and especially Wikipedia:Articles for deletion/Death of Naser Amirnejad. Your contributions would be more then welcome at 2009 Iranian election protests and/or 2009 Iranian university dormitory raids. If it turns out that at a later date we actually need a Sohrab Aarabi page, then converting it from a redirect back to an actual page will be easy enough. Doing so should be talked about on the Talk:2009 Iranian election protests or Talk:2009 Iranian university dormitory raids pages first though, in order to reach a consensus that such an action is appropriate. Thanks!

Hi there and thank you for your message. I think the two cases (Naser Amirnejad and Aarabi) are different. I knew that we wont have a separate page for every victim. But Aarabi became like a symbol as mentioned in one of my citations. This case got attention to a point that Mir Hossein Mousavi took risk to go to his house.
His case was associated with a story that was covered by media extensively. Therefore I thought he deserves a separate page.
I think it is important that at least two or three cases out of almost 70 deaths are covered in detail. It is important for the history. Otherwise the regime of Iran will always claim that none of these people were killed by the regime. We need to document them in detail. That is my opinion. Surely we will not want to have separate pages for all 70 deaths. But a few of then need to be treated in detail. That is my opinion. Cheers. Sinooher (talk) 06:41, 15 July 2009 (UTC)Reply
You could very well be correct, but based on (very recent) past history with the Ad and all of the articles which deal with the issue, I think that it's best to build consensus before starting any new pages or making any other large scale changes. It just seems best to me to add information to the existing pages, until it's clear that a new page is really needed. Just start adding stuff to either 2009 Iranian election protests and/or 2009 Iranian university dormitory raids, and if it gets out of control then we can split it off to a separate page then.

Obama article probation

edit

  Thank you for your contributions to the encyclopedia! In case you are not already aware, an article to which you have recently contributed, Barack Obama, is on article probation. A detailed description of the terms of article probation may be found at Wikipedia:General sanctions/Obama article probation. Also note that the terms of some article probations extend to related articles and their associated talk pages.

The above is a templated message. Please accept it as a routine friendly notice, not as a claim that there is any problem with your edits. Thank you. -- Wikidemon (talk) 23:07, 27 July 2009 (UTC)Reply

Unreferenced BLPs

edit

  Hello Sinooher! Thank you for your contributions. I am a bot alerting you that 2 of the articles that you created are tagged as Unreferenced Biographies of Living Persons. The biographies of living persons policy requires that all personal or potentially controversial information be sourced. In addition, to ensure verifiability, all biographies should be based on reliable sources. If you were to bring these articles up to standards, it would greatly help us with the current 54 article backlog. Once the articles are adequately referenced, please remove the {{unreferencedBLP}} tag. Here is the list:

  1. Fereshteh Ghazi - Find sources: Google (books · news · scholar · free images · WP refs· FENS · JSTOR · TWL

Speedy deletion nomination of Ali Akbar Javanfekr

edit
 

A tag has been placed on Ali Akbar Javanfekr requesting that it be speedily deleted from Wikipedia. This has been done under section A7 of the criteria for speedy deletion, because the article appears to be about a person or group of people, but it does not indicate how or why the subject is important or significant: that is, why an article about that subject should be included in an encyclopedia. Under the criteria for speedy deletion, such articles may be deleted at any time. Please see the guidelines for what is generally accepted as notable, as well as our subject-specific notability guideline for biographies. You may also wish to consider using a Wizard to help you create articles – see the Article Wizard.

If you think that this notice was placed here in error, you may contest the deletion by adding {{hangon}} to the top of the page that has been nominated for deletion (just below the existing speedy deletion or "db" tag - if no such tag exists then the page is no longer a speedy delete candidate and adding a hangon tag is unnecessary), coupled with adding a note on the talk page explaining your position, but be aware that once tagged for speedy deletion, if the page meets the criterion, it may be deleted without delay. Please do not remove the speedy deletion tag yourself, but don't hesitate to add information to the page that would render it more in conformance with Wikipedia's policies and guidelines. Lastly, please note that if the page does get deleted, you can contact one of these admins to request that they userfy the page or have a copy emailed to you.
