A cheeseburger for you!

Thanks for letting the other person know that this is not a forum....appreciated... Strike Σagle 04:46, 4 June 2013 (UTC)

Hot breakfast! Yummy.

sorry if my edits seem like following you! :) I have more than 700 pages in my watchlist... ;) Cheers, Strike Σagle 05:45, 4 June 2013 (UTC)

Come on man, it's funny. I can give you watchlist token too. No problem over that.. Besides I have 3000 pages in watchlist.

Ty. A record of Vandalized talk is necessary for Anti-Vandalism editors. Fai zan 09:06, 4 June 2013 (UTC)

spree.co.za

Hi Faizan. spree is a south african online website that retails clothing. the website has recently launched and is now airing a TV commercial. People who are searching for spree are finding the spree river and the spree ecommerce platform. It is for this reason that I have listed spree.co.za on the page. Please let me know if you have any questions. Thank you. (Spree.co.za (talk) 09:11, 4 June 2013 (UTC))

First of all, you have a promotional username, and usernames like that are not acceptable. You have been reported, and please don't add such spam links to articles again, like you did at a disambiguation page. Fai zan 09:17, 4 June 2013 (UTC)

Jujyfruit

Hey Faizan,

I'm not really worked up over the change. It just made me chuckle that the caption read "an assortment of sorted jujyfruit." It's logically inconsistent. You can keep the change or discard it; either way.

Thanks for the head's up. I don't ever really edit wiki, but I took a moment to do that and didn't realize you needed to leave a note explaining what you did for small clerical things.

Hello Chris. I regret for it, that was unnecessary. Welcome to Wikipedia. Fai zan 08:10, 5 June 2013 (UTC)

Why?

I believe you should put back i had edited because there was no mention of the War Dogs in that paragraph and that is why i edited it. — Preceding unsigned comment added by Polkinator (talk • contribs) 00:39, 5 June 2013 (UTC)

Hello Polkinator. Your edit was not satisfactory for an encyclopedia. You wrote: "Don't forget the War Dogs!". This type of statement or the method of expressing it in an encyclopedia is not appropriate. You are welcome to improve it. Fai zan 07:43, 5 June 2013 (UTC)

Dude thanks, without your and DS's help it was not possible to make it ready. It has been moved. Nominating it for DYK now. Any suggestion of the statement for DYK? Fai zan 08:34, 5 June 2013 (UTC)

I want to see you there as an Expander too. Then how to fill the template regarding expander? In the author 2? See this link. Fai zan 08:50, 5 June 2013 (UTC)

Yeah..you can add author 3..so on.. TheStrike Σagle 08:52, 5 June 2013 (UTC)

I want to write: "Created by Faizan. Expanded by Faizan and Strike Eagle" Fai zan 08:54, 5 June 2013 (UTC)

Not possible...you have to follow that way else the template won't work! TheStrike Σagle 08:57, 5 June 2013 (UTC)

You could do that after the template is substituted...I will do it! TheStrike Σagle 08:59, 5 June 2013 (UTC)

Image is fine but what caption do you want to give? TheStrike Σagle 09:12, 5 June 2013 (UTC)

Protests in Bangladesh against Bihari Razakars, Will not it look smaller in the preview? We should leave the image? Fai zan 09:13, 5 June 2013 (UTC)

We can......noms with images generally take longer to make to main page... TheStrike Σagle 09:15, 5 June 2013 (UTC)

Hope that it is accepted now. But if it is not accepted after 5 days of creation, will it be ignored? Secondly you can review it? Fai zan 09:20, 5 June 2013 (UTC)

No, it must be nominated before 5 days....there's no time for reviewing...no..I can't review it!....BTW the hook used in the nomination must exist in the article...in this case, the hook you used in nom does not exist in the article......you should fix it.. TheStrike Σagle 09:23, 5 June 2013 (UTC)

nominated before 5 days or reviewed before 5 days? The hook is the image? Fai zan 09:28, 5 June 2013 (UTC)

(talk page stalker) It should be nominated before 5 days, review can take some time. The hook is the statement that you give for DYK, it should be present in the article. -sarvajna (talk) 09:34, 5 June 2013 (UTC)

Ok sarvajna, but how can I nominate an article before its creation? Fai zan 09:36, 5 June 2013 (UTC)

he means that it must be nominated within 5 days of its creation..

TheStrike Σagle 09:39, 5 June 2013 (UTC)

It was created on 4 June, and nominated on 5 June. The hook is already there.

Fai zan 09:41, 5 June 2013 (UTC)

technically, it was created today....only the date you moved it to mainspace is counted....not userspace.. TheStrike Σagle 09:42, 5 June 2013 (UTC)

Sarvajna, Can have a review here? I shall be grateful. Fai zan 09:43, 5 June 2013 (UTC)

I just had a look, something doesn't sound correct "Did you know that estimated lakhs of Biharis stranded in Bangladesh were killed by Bengalis(protests again Biharis pictured) after the Fall of Dhaka??" .-sarvajna (talk) 09:48, 5 June 2013 (UTC)

I do not see the hook in the article, may be I missed it.-sarvajna (talk) 09:52, 5 June 2013 (UTC)

Oh yes....it doesn't exist...... see my proposed hook above and tell if it looks alright.. TheStrike Σagle 10:17, 5 June 2013 (UTC)

It does exist now at least. Fai zan 10:39, 5 June 2013 (UTC)

I just feel that Strike Eagle's hook is better, if at all that would be considered I would suggest that you add "more than 100,000" as the minimum estimated number was 100,000. -sarvajna (talk) 11:20, 5 June 2013 (UTC)

Done Now I expect a review. Fai zan 11:22, 5 June 2013 (UTC)

Biharis

The article could also talk about rapes carried out by the Mukti Bahini against Bihari people. Some information is available in Rape during the Bangladesh Liberation War. Another topic that could be covered is how Biharis don't have voting rights, I think I read that somewhere on the Stranded Pakistanis article. Mar4d (talk) 13:57, 5 June 2013 (UTC)

Yeah it needs expansion, will improve it after two days after finishing of my exams. Fai zan 13:59, 5 June 2013 (UTC)

Liaquat Ali Khan and Jinnah's return

People have continuously spammed, in a sense, Liaquat Ali Khan's page by adding that statement that he convinced Jinnah to comeback to India. This statement is completely False and most likely came out of state propaganda which is not what Wikipedia stands for and has no credible sources and no primary sources what so ever (that is why it is never referenced). In reality a Ahmadi man by the name of A. R. Dard spent by the Ahmadi spiritual head. This Article by the PakTeahouse provides many primary sources and Jinnah's own words and is highly recommended read: [1] — Preceding unsigned comment added by Nawabmalhi (talk • contribs) 15:48, 5 June 2013 (UTC)

I would be more careful

before expanding Minorities in Pakistan in future (perhaps you could help me) and thanks for the strikeout. Let's edit amiably and keep it friendly. Okay? :) Mr T ^(Talk?) ^{(New thread?)} 16:31, 8 June 2013 (UTC)

Hello Hello MrT. I'm really glad you came here. I know you may be fed up of those conflicts, where you have been indulged since a week approximately. Categories for deletion, Articles for deletion, ANI, etc. No one would ever prefer conflicts. And as far as amiability is concerned, we should keep it in mind that if facts support something, that should be cited. If facts support the persecution of Minorities in a country, they should be there in the article. On the other hand, if the facts also support the betterment of the minorities, or the developments in their condition, they should also be there. The version of the article of Minorities in Pakistan developed recently was not according to WP:NPOV. Now, I will certainly aid you there, and then we can carry out other joint projects too. Thanking you once again. Fai zan 09:24, 9 June 2013 (UTC)

Yes, allow me to say something here about WP:NPOV issue you raised, you're correct it was not ideal, far from it. It was written in a tone that might be perceived as overly censorious, albeit that was not my intention. Having said that, I believe most of the articles below FA/GA standard have some issues with NPOV, whether it's result of an ongoing dispute or not.
I am happy that you reaffirmed the stipulation that if reliable sources support a claim, good or bad, that claim should be there in the article. I hope to improve the article further after a few days, I would like you to take charge of the content, I may provide sources on the talk of the draft or the article. I was not that much annoyed with the accusation of Bias in that article per se, but the arbitrary blanket reversal. I would appreciate if you didn't support that bullish attitude. If it can happen to me on this article, it can happen to you as well or anybody for that matter. Let's keep our personal prejudices and biases aside and let the facts speak for themselves. Mr T ^(Talk?) ^{(New thread?)} 11:42, 9 June 2013 (UTC)

I will let you be in charge of the changes, I think it's better to edit it as a separate draft and it will allow us to take approval of most of the editors involved (after we have had our changes). I have done it in past and I would like to collaborate with you there. If you think I have misrepresented something or neglected anything feel free to make the change. I hereby formally hand it over to you for next few days. Make it neutral. I would appreciate if it could be a mutual collaboration between you and I. (At this moment it's very hard for me to navigate through the hurdles) But one condition there will be no "ego" between you and me

.
We have to leave it at the door. Mr T ^(Talk?) ^{(New thread?)} 11:55, 9 June 2013 (UTC)

Eh... First thing... That I don't have any of the " personal prejudices and biases", and they will never come in my way in Wikipedia. The so-called separate draft is the same previous version of the disputed revision. Anyway, I am glad to work with you. There are few errors there, and I will cite them in the respective talk, and we can fix them. It would be a pleasure to work cooperatively. After the Minorities in Pakistan, we can work in Minorities in India too. I cannot make it neutral alone, and I will need alignment of all the parties. Hope to start work there soon. Fai zan 13:17, 9 June 2013 (UTC)

"they will never come in my way in Wikipedia" - Thanks.
The draft it's up to you. Edit it anyway you like. Delete the errors, biased claims and keep the rest. I am not going to revert you. But we've got to start to trust each other at some point in order to be able to collaborate efficiently.
"After the Minorities in Pakistan, we can work in Minorities in India too." —— sure why not? "I cannot make it neutral alone" - I know, but let's keep it between us for at least 7 days, then we will move it to the main space and open it for everybody concerned. Acceptable? It's just a precaution, it will give me some time to edit it hassle free. That's all. You know where I stand, Faizan. I trust you and I am willing to collaborate and reach a compromise with you first, then others. Cheers, Mr T ^(Talk?) ^{(New thread?)} 15:12, 9 June 2013 (UTC)

Heart-touching words MrT.

No problem at all, cooperation would have been the last option otherwise too. Don't worry, the articles would be fine. I will start major re-construction from tomorrow, and we can also get a DYK for the 5x expansion. Fai zan 15:19, 9 June 2013 (UTC)

Abdul Malik Baloch

Hi Faizan...I dont think that Mr. Abdul Malik Baloch is bestowed upon any titles. Being a CM doesn't grant any title in its own regard. Please discuss further on the topic's talk page before reverting. Thanks. Najafhaider (talk) 12:23, 9 June 2013 (UTC)

Let me look into it. The Constitution of Pakistan assigns these titles to the honourable ministers. Fai zan 13:41, 9 June 2013 (UTC)

Move

Hi Faizan, I saw that you moved the article Anti-Bihari sentiment in India to Anti-Bihari sentiment. As it now covers all range of anti-Bihari sentiments regardless of geographical location, I guess it would be appropriate to merge the article Persecution of Biharis in Bangladesh with that article.--Zayeem ^(talk) 19:46, 9 June 2013 (UTC)

Sorry Zayeem that would be censorship and hiding the fact that Bangladesh is abusing and persecuting Biharis on a daily basis. I think a better idea would be to merge Bangladesh atrocities in 1971 with rape in 1971? 86.151.237.220 (talk) 10:03, 10 June 2013 (UTC)

Well, there is a heck of difference between sentiment and persecution. Sentiment has a wide meaning, and it may include things from demonstrations, hatred, violence, etc, but the persecution's definition is not fit upon the Sentiment. Fai zan 10:43, 10 June 2013 (UTC)

Welcome back

Wa-alaikum Assalam. Just joined Wikipedia today after a semi-long pause. Glad to hear from you. Congrats on your 10,000 edits. One thing, user User:Anthonyhcole is repeatedly changing lead sentence "Muhammad is almost universally considered..." in Muhammad. If possible, keep an eye. Hope your all-out success. Thanks. --AsceticRosé 17:37, 10 June 2013 (UTC)

Thanks Ascetic. Don't worry about that. I will keep an eye. Secondly an RfC at the talk page of Prophet Muhammad maybe of interest to you. Fai zan 17:39, 10 June 2013 (UTC)

User:AsceticRose, I am not repeatedly changing that sentence. Also, your edit summary calls my edit vandal-like. That is incorrect too. Do you make a habit of lying about and insulting editors you disagree with? --Anthonyhcole (talk · contribs · email) 17:45, 10 June 2013 (UTC)

Anthonyhcole please don't mind it. But your edits are without consensus. This thing has been discussed earlier at the article's talk. Fai zan 17:47, 10 June 2013 (UTC)

User:Anthonyhcole, You did this two times -- on 13 May and 06 June. Also, it is not my personal disagreement. It is according to talkpage discussion. You attempted to change it without any discussion.--AsceticRosé 17:53, 10 June 2013 (UTC)

Cool it down. Fai zan 17:55, 10 June 2013 (UTC)

Anthonyhcole, one more thing, my history does not say I make a habit of lying about and insulting editors.--AsceticRosé 17:58, 10 June 2013 (UTC)

You're right. I apoligise. I'd forgotten about the earlier edit. Sorry. Can you give it some thought, though, please? I think my proposed language is uncontroversial, in that it's not insulting to any people who identify as Muslims. I'm just trying to get a stable article. I can't see why anyone would object to my language, but there are always going to be people who strongly object to the existing language, and all the other proposed wordings on the talk page. --Anthonyhcole (talk · contribs · email) 18:07, 10 June 2013 (UTC)

There is no such conflict at the article's talk. You are not making it stable, rather you are making it controversial. The current statement was replaced there only after the consensus. Fai zan 18:09, 10 June 2013 (UTC)

The current language, "Muhammad is almost universally considered by Muslims as the last prophet sent by God for mankind" entails that there are some (few) Muslims who do not believe Muhammad is the last prophet. Are you happy with that consensus wording? --Anthonyhcole (talk · contribs · email) 18:41, 10 June 2013 (UTC)

The consensus was for that statement and we have to accept it anyway. Fai zan 18:47, 10 June 2013 (UTC)

I don't see the consensus you see there. But, provided you and AsceticRose are OK with the present wording, stating that one can be a Muslim while not believing Muhammad is the last prophet, then I'll leave it there. --Anthonyhcole (talk · contribs · email) 18:55, 10 June 2013 (UTC)

There can be a few amendments to it, but currently, it will remain the same. Fai zan 18:57, 10 June 2013 (UTC)

User:Anthonyhcole, I also apologize for the wrong-wording edit summary (made with a slumberous head). What you proposed here has some value. "People who identify themselves as Muslims..." can be a solution to the problem created by Ahmadia-related wording. But such phrase like "X who identify themselves as Y" seems very weak & derogatory for the Y community. That's the problem. So, leave it as it is now. thanks.--AsceticRosé 04:09, 11 June 2013 (UTC)

The whole "Later career" section is completely wrong - the article is about a different Alex Bailey from the one the "Later career" section refers to. I suggest this is removed. — Preceding unsigned comment added by 62.7.90.114 (talk) 13:59, 11 June 2013 (UTC)

You have got it wrong. Your edit is not acceptable, as it included "Alex is commonly known as Mule.". And that's not appropriate, that's why it was reverted. Fai zan 15:20, 11 June 2013 (UTC)

Persecution of Biharis vandalism

User Armanj has since last night been vandalising the article he keeps removing sourced information and has been trying desperately to state that persecution lasted only during the 1971 war even though the sources completely disagree "The Biharis became subject to widespread political persecution preceding and during the 1971 war as well as in the aftermath of liberation" I think he is unable to read the last part of the sentence or refuses to read it please just revert him on sight whenever he tries to vandalise again thanks. 86.151.237.220 (talk) 08:51, 13 June 2013 (UTC)

PLO, UN, and "sole legitimate representative" versus "the representative"

Please see the discussion on the Palestinian Liberation Organization: Talk:Palestine_Liberation_Organization#.22sole_legitimate.22_representative_..._by_the_United_Nations. I discussed the change well ahead of time, and I was supported in my proposal. You are simply mixing and matching claims: no source claims the UN claims the PLO is the "sole legitimate" representative, and evidence disproves such claim. I have added the relevant quotes to support my claim.

If you still think I am wrong, we can discuss it there, here, on my talk page, or in arbitration. Int21h (talk) 09:23, 14 June 2013 (UTC)

I have a huge watchlist and saw the discussion there. Better continue it there. Fai zan 11:53, 14 June 2013 (UTC)

Urdu wikipedia

Hey do you translate articles in urdu wikipedia. Solomon7968 13:18, 14 June 2013 (UTC)

Yes, I do. Any service? Fai zan 13:19, 14 June 2013 (UTC)

Okay can you translate The History of India, as Told by Its Own Historians. The Muhammadan Period. Solomon7968 13:24, 14 June 2013 (UTC)

Doing.... Fai zan 13:26, 14 June 2013 (UTC)

It will be great if you can translate it in Arabic wikipedia also. I guess you know Arabic. And do you know persian? Maximum of the original works are in persian. So it should have a persian wikipedia article. Solomon7968 13:30, 14 June 2013 (UTC)

I am sure enough Faizan doesn’t know Arabic and Persian so well so as to translate...—Шαмıq ☪ _тαʟκ✍ @ 13:34, 14 June 2013 (UTC)

Yeah I can do it only in Urdu. Fai zan 13:41, 14 June 2013 (UTC)

I have created the article here, and improving it. Fai zan 13:49, 14 June 2013 (UTC)

Article created, but I fear that it may not get sufficient views there. Fai zan 14:15, 14 June 2013 (UTC)

You can create the article on Syed Ahmed Bukhari in Urdu wikipedia. He does not yet have a English wikipedia article. It is high time someone makes an article on him. Solomon7968 11:37, 15 June 2013 (UTC)

Doing... Thanks. Fai zan 11:38, 15 June 2013 (UTC)

Can you give me the link for it there at Ur.Wiki? Fai zan 11:41, 15 June 2013 (UTC)

Did you heard of him? But I tried gathering information on him and got exhausted due to extreme scarcity of references of his biography though there are good number of sources on his political connections. Solomon7968 11:44, 15 June 2013 (UTC)

I did not. I though I could gather some substance from the entry at Urdu Wiki. So do you have a link there? Fai zan 11:47, 15 June 2013 (UTC)

No wikipedia article (any language) exists on him. So who is Syed Ahmed Bukhari? He is the tenth (present) Shahi Imam of Jama Masjid. He has widespread political connections and etc. etc.. Solomon7968 11:49, 15 June 2013 (UTC)

Ok, got it. I have started the progress here. Hope to get sufficient substance there. Fai zan 11:58, 15 June 2013 (UTC)

More info his ancestry can be directly traced to Muhammad. on the request of Mughal emperor shahjahan the emeperor of samarkhand sent the ancestor of Mr. Bukhari from Bukhara in samarkhand to accept the post of Shahi Imam. Solomon7968 12:02, 15 June 2013 (UTC)

I have added the info there to the article, but we will need references. Fai zan 12:11, 15 June 2013 (UTC)

I have added the Official reference but need some secondary ones. And is Maulana is officially his name or a honorific? Solomon7968 12:26, 15 June 2013 (UTC)

I will try to find secondary ones, but "Maulana" is always a horrific. Fai zan 12:29, 15 June 2013 (UTC)

Criteria

hi Faizan. The wikipedia policy WP:VERIFY state that the criteria for inclusion is that material "must clearly support the material as presented in the article". Please bear that in mind in your future edits. References must also be "reliable, third-party, published sources" per wp:rs. The source you used isn't. Thank you.

Syed Ahmed Bukhari

What is written in this ? Solomon7968 13:55, 15 June 2013 (UTC)

It is the board at the mosque I think, which includes the names of all the thirteen Imams on the mosque, just like included in the list in Shahi Imam. Fai zan 13:57, 15 June 2013 (UTC)

I cannot visualise this. There are only 13 imams till today, all in a family since the time of Shahjahan. Should we not have separate articles for each of them? And what is the Pakistani equivalent of Jama Masjid. I mean the most historically significant mosque in Pakistan. I know about the lahore mosque but is it the most influential? Solomon7968 14:15, 15 June 2013 (UTC)

We can have separate articles for them, but if we have the substance which we found for Syed Ahmed Bukhari. Jama Masjid is the same for all over the world. Its meaning is like "A Grand Mosque". In Pakistan, we have them at Khudabad and Sialkot. But the Badshahi mosque is obviously more influential and known. Fai zan 14:21, 15 June 2013 (UTC)

I checked the article Badshahi Mosque. It does not contains the list of its Imams. Any info? Solomon7968 15:12, 15 June 2013 (UTC)

What I could find from the external links was: [3] and [4]. Fai zan 15:16, 15 June 2013 (UTC)

Surrender

hi faizan, we had our first arguments over the instrument of surrender article, remember? Why can't you people accept the reality of '71 and move on? You should keep the redirect, its a very common term--ArmanJ (talk) 13:58, 15 June 2013 (UTC)

Hello Arman. My concerns on the redirect remain there. It is insignificant, redundant, and therefore unnecessary. It does not tell about the time period of the surrender, and is less likely to be used for a redirect commonly. Fai zan 14:01, 15 June 2013 (UTC)

It's a very significant term because its more commonly used than the actual technical term, and hence there should be a redirect page. Moreover, its a more standard title for wikipedia, like other military surrender articles.--ArmanJ (talk) 14:16, 15 June 2013 (UTC)

redirect deletion attempts

Stop all your efforts to get the redirect deleted except for the RFD. Do not remove the RFD tag from the redirect, let it run its course and an uninvolved admin will evaluate the discussion and decide if it should be deleted. Any other tactics to try to get the redirect deleted will be considered disruptive and you may be blocked. GB fan 18:23, 15 June 2013 (UTC)

Potential RFC/U

Because you supported corrective action regarding my improperly-filed ANI about USer:Baboon43's conduct, I am contacting you per Wikipedia:Requests_for_comment/User_conduct/Guidance#Qualification. Would you be interested in endorsing such an RFC/U? You can view the draft at sandbox. If you agree, I grant my consent for you to edit my sandbox as needed in order to make that endorsement apparent. MezzoMezzo (talk) 06:46, 17 June 2013 (UTC)

I had my response here. So now at the Request for comment on the user conduct, am I eligible to endorse it as "Users who tried and failed to resolve the dispute."? Fai zan 08:09, 17 June 2013 (UTC)

This is where I'm not entirely sure. This is the first time I've tried this so to be safe, it might be better - if you do choose to endorse, as there's no pressure - to stamp under the "Additional users endorsing this cause for concern" section. I don't want to end up improperly filing anything again, you know what I mean? MezzoMezzo (talk) 08:43, 17 June 2013 (UTC)

Sure, endorsing it as an additional user. Fai zan 08:46, 17 June 2013 (UTC)

Hi. Any idea why your Huggle didn't add the proper warnings to User talk:117.193.163.233? It appears to be stuck after the first, while we both reverted that IP a number of times. Did you get errors or a crash? Yintan 12:31, 17 June 2013 (UTC)

Latest change on the "Albanophobia" article

Dear Faizan, I really found your article very well written. The only thing I wanted to change on it was the name "Republic of Macedonia". Being a Greek, it is unacceptable for me to read an article refering to a state named Macedonia. The terms: "Macedonia", "Macedonian people", "Macedonian language" and everything else called "Macedonian" is nothing more than terms refering to the Greek civilization. After all the Republic's name is only constitutionally called "Republic of Macedonia". This state is officially recognised by the United Nations as "the former Yugoslav Republic of Macedonia" or "the FYROM" and it is not in any case recognised as the "Republic of Macedonia". If we have to be clear in our articles we have to write everything as it must be written. After all the only thing I did, was to change a dispute name and write the real name of the country, which is official and makes no dispute, since it has been agreed by Greece, the country itself and by the rest of the world's UN states. — Preceding unsigned comment added by Elias Raptis (talk • contribs) 13:35, 17 June 2013 (UTC)

Hello Elias. I think I had interaction with you before too. I don't own that article. The article's name is "Republic of Macedonia". I think, you should go through the previous thread of discussion. Fai zan 13:45, 17 June 2013 (UTC)

(talk page stalker) Hi Elias. We've gone over that many times already and the current name of the article follows WP conventions. More info here and here. Γειά σας, Yintan 14:38, 17 June 2013 (UTC)
