December 2007

Welcome to Wikipedia. Although everyone is welcome to make constructive contributions to Wikipedia, at least one of your recent edits, such as the one you made to Islam and blasphemy, did not appear to be constructive and has been reverted or removed. Please use the sandbox for any test edits you would like to make, and take a look at the welcome page to learn more about contributing to this encyclopedia. Thank you. —Animum (talk) 18:42, 31 December 2007 (UTC)

Please do not replace Wikipedia pages with blank content. Blank pages are harmful to Wikipedia because they have a tendency to confuse readers. If it is a duplicate article, please redirect it to an appropriate existing page. If the page has been vandalised, please revert it to the last legitimate version. If you feel that the content of a page is inappropriate, please edit the page and replace it with appropriate content. If you believe there is no hope for the page, please see the deletion policy for how to proceed. Sandahl 18:48, 31 December 2007 (UTC)

Please do not attack other editors. If you continue, you will be blocked from editing Wikipedia. --neonwhite user page talk 19:41, 17 January 2008 (UTC)

Userbox

This a warning to avoid inappropriate content on user pages. Please see the policy [1] concerning inappropriate content on userpages. I have removed the userbox that you added [2]. Please do not add it again. --Ѕandahl 23:51, 24 January 2008 (UTC)

Edit to Adolf Hitler

Please do not delete sourced information from articles, especially without an edit summary or a post on the talk page explaining why. It will usually be construed as vandalism or some other kind of disruptive editing. As a rule of thumb, sourced information should never be removed from an article, unless it's a violation of WP:UNDUE, presented in a way that violates WP:NPOV, or the sources aren't reliable. Oh, and this kind of comment isn't particularly civil. If you have any questions, feel free to ask me, either here, or on my talk page. Thanks. Parsecboy (talk) 03:42, 14 June 2008 (UTC)

I replied to your comment on my talk page, as I generally prefer to keep a discussion in one place. Thanks. Parsecboy (talk) 05:01, 14 June 2008 (UTC)

you can't just randomly put islamophobic bias on Wikipedia and hope that even though no absurd claim like that was ever mentioned in the past 68 years people will still believe he said something like that. I removed because it's ridiculous and I will remove it again and give my reasons for it. Taking info from a racist source is very unwikipedialike is it not?

oh and you you have some sort of a stalking device? How did you know I did that?

The "History" button on the top of every page allows anyone to see every edit ever made to an article (with the exception of edits that have been deleted; only administrators can see those). As for the point in question, it's not islamophobic, it's a documented statement from Albert Speer's personal diary. Again, just because something is associated with Hitler doesn't mean it's a bad thing. Hitler was a vegetarian, does that mean vegetarianism is a bad thing? Surely not.

When was this lie released?--Velanthis (talk) 00:55, 24 June 2008 (UTC)

Um...what lie? The thing about Hitler admiring Islam? You'd have to check the original publication date of Speer's journal. A quick search on Amazon shows that it was first published in 1970.Parsecboy (talk) 01:23, 24 June 2008 (UTC)

Deletion request

There is absolutely no credible basis for claiming that Battle of Bassorah should be speedy-deleted under criteria G10, which is limited to pages that attack a living person. Please do not insert that template again. You are welcome to express your views on the merits or demerits of the article at its AFD page. --R'n'B (call me Russ) 18:23, 4 August 2009 (UTC)

NOt sure what your beef is. I copied my original Battle of Bassorah article from a 1935 encyclopediaset belonging to my parents. That article is here [3]. I haven't contributed since then, and the article appears to be much more developed at this stage and I cannot comment on any bias present. Please be aware that 'offensive to you' or 'I don't agree with that interpretation' is not necessarily bias.

Also next time when contacting a user, please use their Talk Page not user page. Otherwise I do not notice until some time the next year. Cheers.--ZayZayEM (talk) 02:22, 5 May 2010 (UTC)

Qur'an and science

If you continue to disrupt Qur'an and science article, without using the talk page; you will be reported, and probably blocked. Imad marie (talk) 07:44, 14 August 2009 (UTC)

Your edits will achieve nothing but to disrupt other editors. You need to use the talk page, and use WP:RS.Imad marie (talk) 11:08, 27 August 2009 (UTC)

Your comments on the "Islam and blasphemy" discussion page

Sir,

Your use of gross profanity on that page is offensive to other Wikipedia editors, as are your accusations that anything you perceive as negative towards Islam is "racist". You are obviously free to express your opinion on the content, but you should exercise civility towards others, especially if you expect the same for yourself.

You should edit your comments, or else remove them entirely, and refrain from using profanity directed at others in the future.
