ANI notice

Hello. This message is being sent to inform you that there currently is a discussion at Wikipedia:Administrators' noticeboard/Incidents regarding an issue with which you may have been involved. Thank you. — Preceding unsigned comment added by Megistias (talkcontribs)

Comment at ANI removed

Empathictrus, your comment at ANI appears to have been removed by another editor (User:Crum375). I've asked that editor to explain the removal, however I have a feeling it was done because your comment was very long, much longer than ANI comments generally should be. It was also focused on a response to an article content dispute, which doesn't generally belong at ANI. Consider posting your comment to the article's talk page instead (Talk:Kodrion) or to the talk page of the user you're in a dispute with (User talk:Megistias). Thanks, and let me know if you have any questions. Equazcion (talk) 00:04, 13 Feb 2010 (UTC)

Please Equazcon, try to interfere there so I can post the article in ANI. I want both of the users to whom I write about Kodrion to read the page since my edit was unfairly deleted, though it provided some 20 trustworthy references of ancient citations and books. Or tell me how long should it be. I just want it to be displayed there. Or by the way: read it on the (Talk:Kodrion). Don't know if you're that acquainted in history but it is understandable. Help me in truly contributing to Wikipedia! Best regards and thanx for the alert! Empathictrust (talk) 00:21, 13 February 2010 (UTC)
There's really no rule about how long comments need to be. You should offer an answer to the discussion, but when it comes to talking about specific article content and references, leave that stuff to the article talk page instead. Just do your best, and post again at ANI. I'll make sure it stays there this time. Equazcion (talk) 00:27, 13 Feb 2010 (UTC)


I really wanted to thank you for telling me about the comment removal and for your intervention in general. Maybe this is just your duty as an administrator now, but I am grateful to you and am very frank on this. I wrote this in my talk page where you previously notified me bu I couldn't post or save it. Why so, can you verify it please? And why I can't access normally my talkpage as an Autoconfirmed user I am?! Did somebody for any reason deleted me without firstly adverting?... Now I'm carrying on with what I wrote:

As many people around the globe, I have made use of Wikipedia's abundant information for many topics and for a long time I would say. I wanted not to only use others' articles but also to create my owns that others can use, since I can really contribute in this. So many times I intended to create my own account and to contribute with several topics and articles that were missing but all those time I withdrew myself and you know why?...

Among all those satisfactory information I got and those very good articles that broadened my horizon, I always felt this oppressive atmosphere on many topics, a dictated and censorship like ambiance felt in every line of a certain subject or article here in Wikipedia, the largest web-based world encyclopedia. After knowing many other trustworthy sources and having had a general vision of what was a certain topic about, reading that topic on Wikipedia and knowing that the overwhelming idle and lazy society of the whole world would refer to it, made me feel reluctant to sign up here. And I wondered how can this be free when the idea of the topic is clearly tendentious or concealingly propagandist?! Is there anyone taking care of its "cleanliness" and truthfulness based on facts and real references?!

Anyway, one night I decided and created my own profile. And here I am, on the second article I edited, after loading it with information and quadrupling its references' number everything was cleaned up by the same reason I was afraid to enter here...

Such a pitiful phenomenon to deny somebody its culture and origin in the XXI century, this is unforgivable. And what's more terrifying is that i.e. to tell that "water is black" is taken as a reference a source where it is clearly stated that "water is transparent". This is so cynical!!! An this is what's happening in the Kodrion article, trying to make it Greek for ""God knows what reason"" when both primary and secondary historical sources never say that. And a similar thing happens with many other ancient cities of the ancient south Illyria and Epirus, in nowadays northwestern Greece and the south of its northern neighbor, Albania. Such a pan-Hellenistic propaganda of those cities that the ancient Greeks themselves called "barbarian" (literally meaning "foreign") is really unfair here in such a serious Encyclopedia.

Let's not go ahead with the Rule of Jungle anymore. Don't let the strongest and the most able to manipulate take advantage, deny the facts, deny their publication and show the facts upside-down. Kodrion is a pure example of this. I really advise you to read all my comments and talk. Maybe my language was too open in the discussion topic with Megistias but I never intended to conflict on something, just wanted to display the facts as they are, both sides and every reference, just display them. Whereas he gives me the same reference where is stated that the Illyrian or Epirotic tribe living where the city is, spoke Greek. Italians speak English, Kenyans speak English, they're not British or Americans or so, Turkish speak Greek, but they're not Greek, Czech speak German, but they're not German. Many people spoke Greek in antiquity, it was "their English in that era". Whereas I provided several primary sources that are the foundations of history and other secondary sources that do cite the tribe inside which the city laid as being Illyrian.

Why such an oppression, Equazcion?! Not letting the facts come as they are?... doesn't sound you like a dictatorship like in here?... Let the people express, let them be and show their culture and everything... look at Vancouver's Olympics opening ceremony, take an example those few people that represent a great heritage... if such an oppressive way would have always been used towards them, we wouldn't have the chance to see them and not even learn about them anymore. So let the facts speak and let the history and its references speak.

I really beseech your help on this. Read what I have written carefully and also see the article I've been referring in the talk page with 5 most acclaimed ancient authors. This was my page [1] You're an administrator and you can differentiate the honesty and what's right and wrong. I don't wanna pursue this issue by myself. Moreover I'm not so accustomed in here as I'm still new. And I'm short on time since I'm dealing with some architectural and urban projects, that's why I didn't write the last days and I'm writing so long now to make up for it and to explain you. We can communicate by email if you wish. Please do carefully consider this issue.

All the best and take care.

Please do not replace Wikipedia pages with blank content, as you did to the page Gentiana lutea. Blank pages can confuse readers, and are overall not helpful to the Wikipedia project; furthermore, blanking a page is not the same as deleting it.

If the article you blanked is a duplicate of another article, please redirect it to an appropriate existing page. If the page has been vandalized, please revert it to the last legitimate revision. If you feel that the content of a page is inappropriate, please replace it with appropriate content. If you believe there is no hope for the page, please use the appropriate deletion process.

File copyright problem with File:Marmiro 2.TIF

Thank you for uploading File:Marmiro 2.TIF. However, it currently is missing information on its copyright status. Wikipedia takes copyright very seriously. It may be deleted soon, unless we can determine the license and the source of the file. If you know this information, then you can add a copyright tag to the image description page.

If you have uploaded other files, consider checking that you have specified their license and tagged them, too. You can find a list of files you have created in your upload log.

If you have any questions, please feel free to ask them at the media copyright questions page. Thanks again for your cooperation. (ESkog)(Talk) 21:30, 3 November 2010 (UTC)

Thank you for writing. I downloaded the image from wikimapia.org, which on its own uses images without copyright. From this I deduced that I had the right to publish this image in WP, but don't know which permission applies and what should I enter on the Author's info. I browsed through media copyright questions page and still don't know the answer. Can you please help me here? Empathictrust (talk) 21:39, 3 November 2010 (UTC)

Orphaned non-free media (File:Mosaic_of_The_Beauty_of_Durrës.jpg)

Thanks for uploading File:Mosaic_of_The_Beauty_of_Durrës.jpg. The media description page currently specifies that it is non-free and may only be used on Wikipedia under a claim of fair use. However, it is currently orphaned, meaning that it is not used in any articles on Wikipedia. If the media was previously in an article, please go to the article and see why it was removed. You may add it back if you think that that will be useful. However, please note that media for which a replacement could be created are not acceptable for use on Wikipedia (see our policy for non-free media).

If you have uploaded other unlicensed media, please check whether they're used in any articles or not. You can find a list of 'file' pages you have edited by clicking on the "my contributions" link (it is located at the very top of any Wikipedia page when you are logged in), and then selecting "File" from the dropdown box. Note that all non-free media not used in any articles will be deleted after seven days, as described on criteria for speedy deletion. Thank you. Melesse (talk) 03:11, 6 January 2011 (UTC)

I don't want to infringe any copyright and the image I chose wasn't copyrighted or at least there was no copyright restriction mentioned on the booklet. Anyway I finished the article "The Beauty of Durrës" where the image File:Mosaic_of_The_Beauty_of_Durrës.jpg is inserted in a template, thus it is not an orphan anymore. Moreover in the article you can better understand the importance of the image inclusion within it. The mosaic is of great importance in several aspects and I couldn't find a way to get a better image of it, therefore you are pleased to leave the file I uploaded. If my claim of fair use rationale applies, I would kindly oblige you to remove the deletion template (banner).

I cannot verify a source to justify the reversal of this edit. It seems like you have taken the information in the Albanian wikipedia here, where it is sourced with Vehbi Bala : PASHKO VASA - portret-monografi, botuar në : Pashko Vasa VEPRA 4, Rilindja, Prishtinë 1989. However, here in the English Wikipedia we have to provide the page number and possibly a quote. If you happen to have Bala's book, and Bala would qualify as a reliable source, that would be sufficient to justify his claim and revert the edit. But in general unsourced paragraphs can be deleted in the English wikipedia. --Brunswick Dude (talk) 20:05, 7 February 2011 (UTC) — Preceding unsigned comment added by Nemzag (talkcontribs)

The renowned Albanian author and politician Pashko Vasa in the 19th century argued that the origin of the word Gheg derives from the word Gjiant, Gegant, Gigand, Giant, referring to the verse found in the Homer's Iliad, "beyond the mountains of Akrokeronis, the land is inhabited by the Giants (Greek: γίγας; Latin: GIGAS).

I understand you well, no need to change your words, if you think I don't get them. Anyway you seem to speak a "hard" form of Gheg dialect. And I'm not speaking the dialect "of the border with Greece": it's just the standard Albanian (gjuha letrare). Anyway I don't see any problem with your discussion with the user JorisvS. He had just made a typing mistake in the pronunciation of [dɛɾ·ə] and there was no conflict between you...

Hi Empathictrust,

I noticed you've made some good edits on http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Gjek%C3%AB_Marinaj. I'll gladly help you improve it, although I am only 19 and don't have a college education. My father is also from Eastern Europe and a Marinaj Supporter. I have gathered all kind of links and PDF-s related to Marinaj that I could send you immediately. I've been told I must be 21 to create a Wikipedia coconut and have no experience on any computer programming. That rules out my direct contribution to the article. My email address is my first name and last name all together @yahoo.com as in (williamshakespeare@yahoo.com).

File permission problem with File:Pandi nga afer.tif

Thanks for uploading File:Pandi nga afer.tif. I noticed that while you provided a valid copyright licensing tag, there is no proof that the creator of the file has agreed to release it under the given license.

If you are the copyright holder for this media entirely yourself but have previously published it elsewhere (especially online), please either

  • make a note permitting reuse under the CC-BY-SA or another acceptable free license (see this list) at the site of the original publication; or
  • Send an email from an address associated with the original publication to permissions-en@wikimedia.org, stating your ownership of the material and your intention to publish it under a free license. You can find a sample permission letter here. If you take this step, add {{OTRS pending}} to the file description page to prevent premature deletion.

If you did not create it entirely yourself, please ask the person who created the file to take one of the two steps listed above, or if the owner of the file has already given their permission to you via email, please forward that email to permissions-en@wikimedia.org.

If you believe the media meets the criteria at Wikipedia:Non-free content, use a tag such as {{non-free fair use}} or one of the other tags listed at Wikipedia:File copyright tags#Fair use, and add a rationale justifying the file's use on the article or articles where it is included. See Wikipedia:File copyright tags for the full list of copyright tags that you can use.

If you have uploaded other files, consider checking that you have provided evidence that their copyright owners have agreed to license their works under the tags you supplied, too. You can find a list of files you have created in your upload log. Files lacking evidence of permission may be deleted one week after they have been tagged, as described on criteria for speedy deletion. You may wish to read the Wikipedia's image use policy. If you have any questions please ask them at the Media copyright questions page. Thank you. Kelly hi! 13:41, 9 October 2014 (UTC)
