Yemen Article

edit

Why did you place some kind of transparent link on the Yemen article that lead to a picture of a guy fellating himself? I am honestly curious as to what you thought this would accomplish. — Preceding unsigned comment added by 97.90.180.193 (talk) 04:12, 25 January 2012 (UTC)Reply

Where? СЛУЖБА (talk) 13:27, 25 January 2012 (UTC)Reply

a transparent link was placed over the entire page that lead to this : http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/File:Autofellatio6.jpg. you were the last person to edit the page. I have the element blocked now on my browser so i don't know if it's still there. — Preceding unsigned comment added by 97.90.180.193 (talk) 04:18, 26 January 2012 (UTC)Reply

What is a "transparent link"? When I go to http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Yemen a page about Yemen opens, and not http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/File:Autofellatio6.jpg . Also, I see nothing of this kind on http://en.wikipedia.org/w/index.php?title=Yemen&action=history . СЛУЖБА (talk) 20:07, 26 January 2012 (UTC)Reply

Burusho

edit

The added reference do not provide data about the presence of J-M12(M102) or E-M78 lineages as a subsequent diffusion of people from the southern Balkans by the Burusho people. Please, point the text you have used to show as your conclusion. Thank you. Jingby (talk) 15:10, 24 June 2009 (UTC)Reply

It is my original research but it is quite obvious. I am about to write a scientific paper on this subject. СЛУЖБА (talk) 11:39, 24 October 2009 (UTC)Reply

Your recent edit to Coup d'état

edit

I have reverted your recent edit to this article. The recent election, no matter how one feels about it, is not a coup d'état as that term is defined in the article's lead paragraph. – ukexpat (talk) 17:53, 17 February 2010 (UTC)Reply

The election is not. Today's suspension of the results and Yanukovitch's accession is. Read here: http://www.cnn.com/2010/WORLD/europe/02/17/ukraine.election.results/index.html?iref=allsearch СЛУЖБА (talk) 18:01, 17 February 2010 (UTC)Reply

Nouri al-Maliki

edit

Thank you for editing Wikipedia, but I'm afraid I've had to revert your recent addition to Nouri al-Maliki. The reason being is you asserted exit polls suggest he has lost, but you didn't provide a source to back up that assertion. Though my own searching, I haven't found any evidence for that conclusion. Please can you provide a source saying that exit polls do suggest he has lost, and then I can readd your information. HonouraryMix (talk) 14:15, 8 March 2010 (UTC)Reply

Nomad

edit

Hi, I undid your edits to Nomad because I believe you made them in good faith, but I don't feel they were necessary. "Former Soviet Union" is what was meant, not "Former Soviet Central Asia". You also added a couple of inline requests for clarification, but one of the passages you tagged was properly referenced and the other was already tagged with Citation Needed. Please feel free to contact me if you want to discuss my edits. ~ Kimelea (talk) 17:30, 24 February 2012 (UTC)Reply

I reverted and explained my requests.
Considering Central Asia, the paragraph speaks solely of Central Asia. I am a native of Russia and I am unaware of an increase in nomadism in other parts of former Soviet Union besides Central Asia. СЛУЖБА (talk) 16:35, 25 February 2012 (UTC)Reply

Finno-Uralic

edit

Hi. You said the Uralic language article is bullshit and biased. Can you tell us the so called "non-biased" view? If you claim something you should be able to tell what the claim is.--88.240.43.209 (talk) 22:22, 24 December 2012 (UTC)Reply

Read the Russian Wikipedia page or any of the works that are not from Finland or Estonia in the last 20 years. Uralic has 2 branches: Samoyedic and Finno-Ugric. The breakup is as western as the Ural Mountains at most, and not the Volga-Kama region. СЛУЖБА (talk) 03:05, 25 December 2012 (UTC)Reply

Infobox parameters

edit

Hello. Please note that this edit of yours was against common Wikipedia practice. According to common practice nationality is most of the times used interchangeably with ethnicity. The parameter is commonly added in cases where nationality cannot be inferred from the birthplace (see http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Template:Infobox_person). Regarding residence: most of the times this parameter refers to a geogaphical region, not a specific polity. Specific polities are usually included in the place of birth/death parameters. These general guidelines are employed in hundreds of thousands of articles. --Omnipaedista (talk) 20:00, 6 June 2013 (UTC)Reply

Kaliningrad is not in the geographical region of Germany. twitter.com/YOMALSIDOROFF (talk) 20:06, 6 June 2013 (UTC)Reply
Indeed, in this case, it would be confusing to retain Germany as his residence. I restored that edit. --Omnipaedista (talk) 20:13, 6 June 2013 (UTC)Reply
Thank You. twitter.com/YOMALSIDOROFF (talk) 20:23, 6 June 2013 (UTC)Reply
Excuse me, but what You're saying regarding "nationality" is totally wrong. Where do You see "nationality is most of the times used interchangeably with ethnicity"? The link You provided http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Template:Infobox_person says "Nationality. May be used instead of citizenship". twitter.com/YOMALSIDOROFF (talk) 04:50, 14 June 2013 (UTC)Reply
Nope, I'm not wrong. Check all the related articles. Plus, 'Kingdom of Prussia' is not commonly perceived as a nationality and the 'infobox philosopher' template does not have an 'ethnicity' parameter. So, as long as this template has the form it has, there is no other option than than having 'German' as Kant's nationality. --Omnipaedista (talk) 15:12, 22 June 2013 (UTC)Reply
My initial comment was a more general one about common practice. You rightly remarked that the 'infobox person' template says "nationality may be used instead of citizenship." Indeed, you will often see 'France' as some French person's nationality, but in almost every such case, the subject of the article is also an ethnic French person and a citizen of France. When things get more complicated, editors either make further distinctions (editing 'nationality,' 'ethnicity,' and 'residence' to reflect what sources say about this person), or, in the case of articles about philosophers, follow the practice I described above: edit the 'nationality' to reflect what reliable sources say and regarding most people who lived in the modern era ethnicity coincides with nationality. --Omnipaedista (talk) 11:27, 23 June 2013 (UTC)Reply
