What makes you think Jamshid is Kurdish?[edit]

I can't read the Persian liner notes on my albums, but nothing I've seen about Jamshid suggests that he's Kurdish. What makes you think he is? Zora 19:32, 26 April 2006 (UTC)[reply]

My friend, nothing makes me think, I know[edit]

Well you have right on one point and that is, you can´t read the Persian liner notes on your album.

and if you now want to know if he is Kurdish or not, here is your answer: he has said that he is Kurdish and it has been written on newspapers and he has Kurdish songs even on his albums, I will link a adress to the article later..

That´s why I think Jamshid is Kurdish.. the problem with Kurdish musicians and historic Kurds is that they have been automatic Persian, Turkish and Arabic, but the truth is always there you can´t hide it.

Kurdish Cities[edit]

I have added data to this article. If you create an article and don't put any information in it, it can be speedy deleted as a very short article. While I am not wedded to the wording, you should make sure that the article is expanded otherwise it runs the risk of deletion. Capitalistroadster 02:35, 27 April 2006 (UTC)[reply]

You blanked this page leading to it being nominated for speedy deletion. This is widely considered to be vandalism I have reverted it back to previous entries. Wikipedia works through a collegiate process so please don't do that. If you continue to do this, you may be blocked from editing for a period of time by administators such as myself.

oki, it seems that people can talk how they want and accuse someone to be another[edit]

I am new here and don´t now exactly how to write and answer to some stupid comments.. these words are wrong choosen, for second I don´t understand why the admin even listen to this people on of their kind. as I have said before, I want to make it clear to everybody what is what and what is not User:Retau

In my view you are innocent till proven guilty so I will treat you like a newbie.

One thing you need to learn is civility. You dont declare comments by others as "stupid". See WP:NPA for this rule.

We have a set of rules and processes we use. You cannot just try to change that. You have recreated something wikipedia comunity decided was not approporate and I am refering to the stub type you have created which was deleted.

I do not understand what you mean by 'what is what and what is not'.

Comment removed from log page[edit]

You recently added this comment to the Wikipedia:Stub types for deletion/Log/Deleted/March 2006 page. Note that this page is for logging stub deletions by WP:SFD and so is not an appropriate place for the comment. I have therefore removed it. --TheParanoidOne 20:53, 27 April 2006 (UTC)[reply]

Thanks, I appreciate that[edit]

Your words are true.

``I want to make it clear to everybody what is what and what is not`` By this I mean, I am seeking the truth and look for the truth, because what is the meaning with false information if the purpose is to destroy and mislead readers. Wikipedia is a big name because it allows all kind of (Right) information and offer reader around the world deep and specific fact and let us see with our own eyes that create a lie is easy but to hide the truth is hard. So facts from a person that think he can change how mutch he want because his purpose is to mislead readers and to create confusion which is a 7-11 job among X- number users. If he want, he can open a internet site and write what ever he want to be written and the seccond alternative is to visit google for articles which describes Bush´s Indian background and what about his palace in Dubai, For such kind of persons there is no place here. And the most important part is, when you read something you will quick find out the truth with or without reference, because you can lie, But the words can not lie..

Retau out Thank You

Thanks and please help[edit]

Thanks for putting the Kurdish name on Hasankeyf; are there other Kurdish names for cities in Kurdistan that you can add? It would be helpful, these are always being attacked by Turkish, Iranian and Arabic editors and I think it adds to the encyclopedic value of the Wikipedia to have all the relevant names -- it is also WP policy. Good job! Carlossuarez46 22:19, 27 April 2006 (UTC)[reply]

I guess u are talking about Category:Kurdish provinces. just a better wording and clean up... I did not change anything special:) --Hectorian 00:22, 28 April 2006 (UTC)[reply]

I know you could had done it as well. BTW, do not forget to sign your comments... --Hectorian 00:35, 28 April 2006 (UTC)[reply]

Well done:). i have made some grammatical corrections in your user page (hope u do not mind) and some of the articles u have started. --Hectorian 00:55, 28 April 2006 (UTC)[reply]

Wikipedia:Three-revert rule[edit]

You should read-up on the three-revert rule and how to report violations of it (Wikipedia:Administrators' noticeboard/3RR#Report new violation). Take care. --Moby 13:28, 28 April 2006 (UTC)[reply]

Hi again. re [1]: wrong place, wrong format and not a violation (yet, at least). Read the rule carefully and do not report non-violations. Please don't be so eager. --Moby 13:58, 28 April 2006 (UTC)[reply]

Wikipedia:Edit war[edit]

Both of you – please do not edit war. Try talking to each other. --Moby 14:02, 28 April 2006 (UTC)[reply]

Moby, how can you talk with a guy that hates your background don´t recognize you and most of all does everything he can do destroy you and makes you look like a fool. I mean everyone knows that east turkey is Kurdish dominiated and even turkish cities have kurdish majority. If he can´t stand the truth, and call me terrorist and babykiller. I don´t make Istanbul Kurdish because it lives over 4 million Kurds there, and in Mersin which kurds are majority in and Adana, but I want it make it right by adding the Kurdish cities with a Kurdish majority not turkish ones If I do that then I am on a wrong trace.

Well talking to people with different views, even abhorrent views, is part of participating in a wiki. The talking may not go anywhere, but at least it shows that you tried. Always be sure to remain civil and please try to avoid baiting people. See: WP:NPA and WP:CIVIL.

Also, I don't understand your sig... --Moby 14:20, 28 April 2006 (UTC) (and I'm gone after this post; later)[reply]

kurdish majority[edit]

sorry but your maps are meaningless, they are not reliable--Hattusili 14:08, 30 April 2006 (UTC)[reply]

only thing I say is that your sources must be more reliable--Hattusili 20:11, 30 April 2006 (UTC)[reply]

from reputable and neutral encyclopedias, organisations, institutes, universities etc.--Hattusili 20:21, 30 April 2006 (UTC)[reply]

Edit summaries[edit]

When editing an article on Wikipedia there is a small field labelled "Edit summary" under the main edit-box. It looks like this:

The text written here will appear on the Recent changes page, in the page revision history, on the diff page, and in the watchlists of users who are watching that article. See m:Help:Edit summary for full information on this feature.

When you leave the edit summary blank, some of your edits could be mistaken for vandalism and may be reverted, so please always briefly summarize your edits, especially when you are making subtle but important changes, like changing dates or numbers. Thank you.

speedy deletion of Kurdish musicians article[edit]

Hi Retau -- I proposed speedy deletion of the Kurdish musicians article you started -- nothing against Kurdish musicians, just that there's nothing in the article and there's no need for it because there's a category by that name, and this is the sort of thing that categories are for. There's also an article on Kurdish music. Joriki 08:14, 30 June 2006 (UTC)[reply]

Reza Jamshidi[edit]

A tag has been placed on Reza Jamshidi, requesting that it be speedily deleted from Wikipedia. This has been done because the article seems to be about a person, group of people, band, club, company, or web content, but it does not indicate how or why the subject is notable, that is, why an article about that subject should be included in Wikipedia. Under the criteria for speedy deletion, articles that do not assert notability may be deleted at any time. Please see the guidelines for what is generally accepted as notable, and if you can indicate why the subject of this article is notable, you may contest the tagging. To do this, add {{hangon}} on the top of the page (below the existing db tag) and leave a note on the article's talk page explaining your position. Please do not remove the speedy deletion tag yourself, but don't hesitate to add information to the article that would confirm its subject's notability under the guidelines.
