Welcome

Welcome!

Hello and welcome to Wikipedia. Thank you for your contributions. I hope you like the place and decide to stay. The following links will help you begin editing on Wikipedia:

• The five pillars of Wikipedia
• How to edit a page
• Editing tutorial
• Picture tutorial
• How to write a great article
• Naming conventions
• Manual of Style

Please bear these points in mind while editing Wikipedia

• Respect copyrights – do not copy and paste text or images directly from other websites.
• Maintain a neutral point of view – this is one of Wikipedia's core policies.
• Take particular care while adding biographical material about a living person to any Wikipedia page and follow Wikipedia's Biography of Living Persons policy. Particularly, controversial and negative statements should be referenced with multiple reliable sources.
• No edit warring or sock puppetry
• If you are testing, please use the Sandbox to do so.
• Do not add troublesome content to any article, such as: copyrighted text, libel, advertising or promotional messages, and text that is not related to an article's subject. Deliberately adding such content or otherwise editing articles maliciously is considered vandalism; doing so will result in your account or IP being blocked from editing.

The Wikipedia tutorial is a good place to start learning about Wikipedia. If you have any questions, see the help pages, add a question to the village pump or ask me on my talk page. By the way, you can sign your name on Talk and discussion pages using four tildes, like this: ~~~~ (the software will replace them with your signature and the date). Again, welcome!

Ethnic disputes

You might want to go to Wikipedia:Administrators' noticeboard/Geopolitical ethnic and religious conflicts. As there are conflicting sources, articles will probably have to reflect both viewpoints. I'm staying out of that article now. Dougweller (talk) 14:43, 28 June 2011 (UTC)

Your recent edits

Hello. In case you didn't know, when you add content to talk pages and Wikipedia pages that have open discussion, you should sign your posts by typing four tildes ( ~~~~ ) at the end of your comment. You could also click on the signature button located above the edit window. This will automatically insert a signature with your username or IP address and the time you posted the comment. This information is useful because other editors will be able to tell who said what, and when. Thank you. --SineBot (talk) 01:49, 2 July 2011 (UTC)

Propaganda

There is no contended dispute between "those who believe that Zaza are Kurdish and those who rejekt it". Because there is no Source rejecting Zaza as Kurds. And who are you to reject what the Zaza are if they consider themselves as Kurd. All sources which were added before are shown and no one of us did remove them unlike you. You are just not able to separate linguistic from ethnicity and this is your problem not ours. Wikisupporting (talk) 10:50, 2 July 2011 (UTC)

I didn't remove any source. I used existing soruces that you used for trying to prove Kurdish nationalists' theory. But it was detected that you used those sources fakedly. You can control sources easily. You will understand that what scholars wrote. Please read Wikipedia:What Wikipedia is not#Wikipedia is not a soapbox or means of promotion again and stop your propaganda. Takabeg (talk) 11:06, 2 July 2011 (UTC)

You did not remove sources?

Sorry but your whole argumentation style is not worth to be taken serious. Wikisupporting (talk) 15:01, 1 August 2011 (UTC)

Bodrogi paper

I can send you the Bodrogi paper but first you need to enable your Wikipedia email via Special:Preferences. Check the box to 'Enable email from other users.' Then write to me at Special:EmailUser/EdJohnston. Thank you, EdJohnston (talk) 17:57, 27 August 2011 (UTC)

R1a

Thanks for leaving a message, although maybe it would have been more appropriate on the article talk page. I already double checked the percentages etc in the article and your edit seems reasonable to me.--Andrew Lancaster (talk) 16:48, 18 September 2011 (UTC)
