Hello. [http://en.wikipedia.org/w/index.php?title=Nagorno-Karabakh_War&action=historysubmit&diff=394607693&oldid=394568863 Here] you removed the sourced information. What's wrong? --[[User:Quantum666|Quantum666]] ([[User talk:Quantum666|talk]]) 18:26, 3 November 2010 (UTC)

How do you do it? IPs and stuff, you are outnumbered like 10 to 1.
BTW, can you request a check with kheo17 and Garapapag. Garapapag had only two or three edits made 3 years ago..., and come recently to make the same reverts as kheo17. This more that shows that it is an alternative account of someone. [[User:Magotteers|Magotteers]] ([[User talk:Magotteers|talk]]) 15:18, 11 November 2010 (UTC)

:Well, I have been editing for almost five years now but patience comes in handy :) I would say that the edit wars are relatively useless as well, so try not to get entangled in them. But since you've already been reported for it, I would suggest you check out the helpful links that'll help you defend yourself.

Hello. Why did you [http://en.wikipedia.org/w/index.php?title=Khanate_of_Erevan&action=historysubmit&diff=396388300&oldid=396317334 remove] Azeri name from [[Khanate of Erevan]]? --[[User:Quantum666|Quantum666]] ([[User talk:Quantum666|talk]]) 13:34, 13 November 2010 (UTC)
:Regarding the khanate of Erevan page: you can read its talk page for the full debate but to put it briefly, it's an anachronism. There was no Azerbaijani state in that part of the region until 1918 and none of the Turkic groups living there at the time would have referred to themselves as "Azerbaijani".--[[User:MarshallBagramyan|Marshal Bagramyan]] ([[User talk:MarshallBagramyan|talk]]) 18:17, 13 November 2010 (UTC)
::Whatever you call those people they lived there, there language was Azeri and their nationality was Azerbaijani (Another example of usage of  such "anachronism" is "genocide" which is used to describe the events happened before the word was created. Shouldn't we use it then?) --[[User:Quantum666|Quantum666]] ([[User talk:Quantum666|talk]]) 08:23, 14 November 2010 (UTC)

:::You're painting the Muslims who lived in that region with a thick brushstroke. Many of them would later go on to call themselves Azerbaijanis; but there were also other ethnic Turkic groups living in the Khanate, many of whom would probably would object to being called Azerbaijani if they were here today. As for the inappropriate analogy regarding the Armenian Genocide - please go read the article itself and that of [[Raphael Lemkin]], who specifically invented that word after learning about the genocide. This is perhaps one of the weakest arguments used by Armenian Genocide denialists today and I'm quite saddened that you bothered to even bring it up. --[[User:MarshallBagramyan|Marshal Bagramyan]] ([[User talk:MarshallBagramyan#top|talk]]) 19:08, 14 November 2010 (UTC)
:::: But the fact is the fact: Erevan khanate was inhabited by Azeris that time (as well as by Kurds, Persians and other people). So all those people have right to mention their name for the khanate in the article. --[[User:Quantum666|Quantum666]] ([[User talk:Quantum666|talk]]) 20:23, 16 November 2010 (UTC)

== New section ==

Hello. [http://en.wikipedia.org/w/index.php?title=September_Days&diff=prev&oldid=396550142 Here] you reverted my edit. Could you please explain the reason? What is the relation between some "Muslim tradition" invented by you and the described events? Why do you present Walker's and Hovannisian's opinions as facts but not as their opinion? Why do you insert primary sources instead of using secondary ones? --[[User:Quantum666|Quantum666]] ([[User talk:Quantum666|talk]]) 20:28, 16 November 2010 (UTC)

:According to Islamic tradition, if a city resisted a siege, it gave itself up to a full-scale (typically 3 day-long) sack. The fact that the residents of Baku resisted the siege thus made it fully liable for pillaging (which is why it is included; other examples include the Fall of Constantinople in 1453 and or the city of Ani in 1064). This fact is relevant since multiple authors make mention of its importance and that this was the reason the Ottoman army did not formally enter the city until several days later.

:Walker and Hovannisian, based on my reading, both believe that about 10,000 Armenians died. They simply ''make mention'' of the fact that higher figures have also been brought up - rather than check the material out yourself, you've automatically misinterpreted the citations that have been used to back up assertions which are never made. 

:As for the primary source: there is no rule on Wikipedia barring the use of such sources. The context is fully provided, as the reader understands what he is reading is a contemporary eyewitness account, and a significant one at that.--[[User:MarshallBagramyan|Marshal Bagramyan]] ([[User talk:MarshallBagramyan#top|talk]]) 21:56, 16 November 2010 (UTC)

:: There is only one source (Walker) claiming relation between "the tradition" and the events. This is not enough to present his opinion as a fact. It must be rewritten. I requested quotation from Walker.

::But you wrote "Estimates of the dead range from 10,000 to 30,000 Armenians." This is not equal to ''"They simply ''make mention'' of the fact that higher figures have also been brought up"''. Your wording misinterprets the source and merely violates [[WP:NPOV]] and [[WP:DUE]] as most of the sources say about 10 000 but not about "from 10000 to 30000".

:: Yes we can use primary sources but very carefully and you cannot write claims (especially such controversial) based only on primary sources. You must provide secondary neutral RS confirming what is written in primary source. --[[User:Quantum666|Quantum666]] ([[User talk:Quantum666|talk]]) 09:23, 19 November 2010 (UTC)

It looks like major portions of the book have been copy-pasted from Walker's book (which can be read [http://www.armenia-survival.50megs.com/Survival_Ch_8.htm here]), so I've adjusted it accordingly, But while his statements do not directly reflect it, it looks likes that line has to be attributed to Hovannisian, who writes "Halil, Nuri, and Mursel withheld the entry of regular Ottoman units into Baku so that the age-old Islamic custom of looting and pillaging defiant cities might be observed." (''Armenia on the Road to Independence'', p. 227.)

I'm not misinterpreting anything: the sources support what is written. Even Walker says that "Estimates for the number of Armenian dead are around 20,000; the figure may easily have been higher. In this way the government of Azerbaijan installed itself in Baku, backed by Ottoman Turkish forces."

And the quotation is also taken from Walker's book, who in turn [http://www.armenia-survival.50megs.com/Survival_Ch_8-2.htm cites] "Jacques Kayaloff, The Fall of Baku (Bergenfield, N.J., 1976), p. 12". See page 261 for the full text from the previous link I posted above.

:For the moment, I don't see that happening. The cave does really appear to be a treasure trove (for archaeologists at least :) ) but I think we'll just have to wait this one out and see what other goodies are excavated. Maybe then we can create an article called "Areni-1" and reserve sections for each unearthed artifact.

==No problem!==
No problem, the [[Anastas Mikoyan]] article you've written is very good. To be honest, I don't know, I haven't read [[Robert Service (historian)|Robert Service]]'s book about Stalin yet. I've read ''History of Modern Russia: From Tsarism to the Twenty-first Century'', another book written by Service if that helps. To be totally honest I don't know very much about the Stalin Era, I know much more about the history of the ''late'' Soviet Union, meaning the period from 1964 til it's demise. As seen by my work here on Wikipedia, I've worked extensively on such articles as [[Leonid Brezhnev]], [[Alexei Kosygin]] and [[Andrei Gromyko]]. ''Stalin: Court of the Red Tsar'' is a great book, and yes, I think you should keep it. While you're right that it is a "mish-mash" of historical events, it covers most, if not all, of Stalin's Soviet Union history. You could in theory reference all major events in Stalin's USSR with this book, so yes, keep it.

== Learning Greek ==

Hello! I am sorry to say that you've come to the wrong person for this: as a Greek, the issue has never concerned me... Perhaps some of our resident linguists like [[User:Future Perfect at Sunrise]] might be able to help you, or you could place a request at [[Wikipedia:Reference desk/Language]]. Again, sorry for not being able to help, and best of luck! Cheers, [[User:Cplakidas|Constantine]]  [[User talk:Cplakidas| ✍ ]] 10:02, 2 April 2011 (UTC)

:Well, Greek, whether ancient or modern, is definitely ''not'' an easy language to master. It has a complex but regular grammar and syntax (similar to German, because German is based on Ancient Greek in these areas), but has a vast vocabulary with many peculiarities. From what my foreign friends tell me, the worst thing is the declension system, where different roots can be employed for the same meaning. For instance, the verb "I eat", ''trōō'', is ''efaga'', "I ate", but ''etrōga'', "I was eating". I had a French teacher once who spoke some six or seven languages including Arabic, Russian and Hittite, and was trying to learn Greek; she found this thing absolutely maddening ;) To an extent, this is less the case in Ancient Greek (for many of these forms have been added over time from colloquialisms), but conversely, Modern Greek is considerably more simplified overall.

:As to your other question, for an educated modern Greek, reading a [[Koine Greek]] or medieval text is relatively straightforward: if not 100%, one can at any rate get the gist. For Classical texts, it is more difficult, and if it is in a dialect other than pure Attic, it may be unintelligible. Aside from grammar and syntax, which has changed to a degree, the biggest change is the vocabulary, as you'd expect over 2,500 years and a few hundred wars, migrations and invasions. Many of the words used in Antiquity are now archaic or entirely obsolete. Those who were still taught [[Katharevousa]] have an advantage here.

(and you know why? he wants there to be a huge gap from the 2200 BC records to the 500 BC, when we have the 1400 BC in between these huge gaps of time, in order to not connect all of them as one and the same) It says speculation but he still removes it!?

== Iran in Nagorno-Karabakh war== 
According to recent edits, Iran is said to be a belligerent on the Azeri side. Both of these sources, aside from only being Armenian, are very recent (less than a week old). I am seriously doubting the validity of the claim. First of all, it is contradicted by earlier belief- including that further down on the page- that Iran actually favored Armenia in the conflict due to the threat of a stable, secular state run by Azeri Shias inspiring unrest or irridentism in their brethren in Iranian Azerbaijan, among other things (Azeri irridentism, Iranian dislike for secularist Azeri Shias, etc...). Furthermore, these sources say that "According to Ayatollah Ameli [supposedly a reliable source?], Iran also provided logistical support in the delivery, if necessary to the front lines, of thousands of fighters from Afghanistan.", which at least I find odd, considering that the "Afghan fighters" in question are labeled as being the muhajideen that previously fought Russia and then later the Northern Alliance in Afghanistan (the Northern Alliance which Iran backed against them). And how cozy could hardline Shia Iran really have gotten with a Sunni fighting group (I could understand maybe if they were Hazaras, but as far as I know that isn't the case...)? I did not revert although I was tempted to... what are your thoughts on this? --[[User:Yalens|Yalens]] ([[User talk:Yalens|talk]]) 20:55, 14 May 2011 (UTC)

== Some sources that might be interesting ==

Hi Marshal, think these sources might be Interesting (in case you are not already aware of them):


{{Quotation|THE SHOPS are empty. The fruit and vegetable market is closed: agricultural produce from the villages does not reach the city because of a petrol shortage. Soviet troops stand at every street corner. Killings are frequent. Stepanakert, capital of the disputed territory of Nagorny Karabakh, is at the centre of a region on the brink of civil war.

Arguably, that war has already begun. Yervant Maroutian, an Armenian doctor in the region, warns of Nagorny Karabakh becoming 'the Lebanon of the Soviet Union'. For almost two months, the Armenians in Nagorny Karabakh - an enclave within the republic of Azerbaijan - have relied on helicopters arriving at Stepanakert Airport for emergency supplies and daily food.

As a response to Nagorny Karabakh's demand to leave Azerbaijan and become part of the Armenian republic, the Azeris imposed what was described as an economic blockade. Rail routes were cut. In addition, the Armenians, who form a majority within Nagorny Karabakh, claim that every road into the region has been rendered dangerous for Armenians. According to the mayor of Stepanakert, Maxim Mirzoyan: 'Since the blockade, the Azeris have resorted to attacking Armenian villages and the outskirts of the city regularly.'

Since January, Nagorny Karabakh has been under the jurisdiction of a special committee ruling from Moscow. Both sides, Armenians and Azeris, had their own reasons for ensuring that direct rule failed. Robert Ghazarian, a doctor at Stepanakert hospital, claims that the Soviet authorities do not care what happens to those in Nagorny Karabakh, and asks: 'Why doesn't Gorbachev send some troops to lift the blockade? We do not understand.'

Armenians want Nagorny Karabakh to form part of Armenia. Azeris, however, are equally determined to prevent such a change. Some Armenians in Karabakh say they are in despair. 'We have had enough. Azerbaijan stifled us economically, culturally and in every possible way. We cannot go on,' said a woman queueing in front of the main bakery in Stepanakert. She had been standing there for more than five hours. 'The army truck came in and took tons of bread while we've been waiting here. Do you think it is fair?'

Earlier this month, Soviet troops fired on crowds, killing one person and injuring five. According to the official account, the troops had been stoned, though Armenians denied this. By the end of the night, Stepanakert hospital had run out of bandages. The hospital, the region's largest, says it cannot cope with the growing number of injured.

The helicopter in which I landed in Karabakh was carrying medical supplies and, more importantly, a surgeon from Erevan to treat a man who had been shot two days earlier by Azeris at his workplace in a village near Stepanakert. The surgeon arrived too late: his patient died the next day.

The shortages are all-pervasive. When the parents of a Russian worker, shot by the Azeris, came to collect the body of their son, it proved almost impossible to find enough petrol to get the body to the airport.

Nagorny Karabakh's Armenian population initially sought to take advantage of Mikhail Gorbachev's perestroika. In February last year, the regional parliament voted unanimously to become part of Soviet Armenia. 'We believed in Gorbachev then,' said Janna Kalsdian, an actress from Erevan, who has come back to her birthplace, Stepanakert. 'Now look what they are doing to us. They are standing aside, and watching the Azeris kill us one by one.' The Armenians say the Azeris are armed with machine-guns and other sophisticated weapons, a claim which the wounds of the injured appear to bear out.

Armenians in Karabakh feel isolated, and the sense of distrust is everywhere. In the words of the commentator Armen Hovhannissian: 'In the West, people talk about human rights. At one time, the rights of one political prisoner in the Soviet Union were an important issue. But now a whole nation is on the brink of annihilation - and nobody is doing anything about it.'

For the inhabitants of the enclave, the situation of their brethren in the republic of Armenia is no better. Mr Hovhannissian continues: 'In Armenia there are more than a million homeless, both from the earthquake of December 1988 and refugees from Azerbaijan. The Azeri blockade hampers any type of work towards solving the problems. All this is creating political frustration and I cannot foresee where it will lead. Solutions must be found soon.'

Nelly Danielian, a teacher, spoke the day after the shooting of demonstrators in Stepanakert: 'At school, my pupils were asking this morning: 'Is it war?' I had to say yes, because it is war. The Azeris want it, and what should we do?'}}

{{Quotation|Ten thousand Armenians have been forcibly deported from the disputed Azerbaijani enclave of Nagorno-Karabakh since April, an international human rights group said yesterday.

Residents of Armenian villages inside Azerbaijan were illegally detained, harassed and tortured, said the delegation, which visited the area before holding a news conference in Moscow yesterday.

Members of the group said they were held at gunpoint and threatened by Azerbaijani special police. The delegation was led by Baroness Caroline Cox, deputy speaker of the British House of Lords.

They were first outside observers allowed to visit the remote region in the Caucasus mountains. Nagorno-Karabakh is part of Azerbaijan, but most of its residents are ethnic Armenians.

Nagorno-Karabakh is claimed by both Azerbaijan and Armenia, two of the 15 republics that make up the Soviet Union.

Residents of Nagorno-Karabakh want to become part of the Armenian republic, but Azerbaijani leaders refuse to let it go.

The resulting conflict has led to ferocious ethnic violence over the last two years in the region, with Armenians and Azerbaijanis carrying out pogroms in Nagorno-Karabakh and elsewhere.

"Forced deportations continue in the Armenian villages in and around Nagorno-Karabakh. . . . Evidence shows the deportations are brutally enforced. They involve loss of life, property and physical injury," the group's report said.

The report also said Armenian paramilitary groups were to blame for armed attacks on local Azeribaijanis, although the violations were on a lesser scale.

Asked about the scale of the deportations, members of the delegation put the figure at 10,000 since the end of April.

Azerbaijan's president, Ayaz Mutalibov, denied Tuesday that Soviet and Azerbaijani troops were forcibly deporting Armenians and said those leaving were doing so of their own accord.

The human rights delegation's report asked for an immediate end to deportations and attacks on civilians, as well as withdrawal of Azerbaijani special police from Nagorno-Karabakh.

The special police - known as "black berets" - held the delegation at gunpoint and threatened it at the airport of the regional capital Stepanakert when members tried to prevent the arrest of five Armenians, delegation members said.

The local "black berets," with no professional training and consisting of Azeribaijanis driven from Armenia, appeared to be out of control and responsible for most of the atrocities in the region, a member of the delegation said.

The delegation was set up last May in Moscow at an international human rights conference held in memory of Soviet Nobel Prize winner Andrei Sakharov. }}

{{Quotation|THE WORST fighting in four years of conflict between Armenia and Azerbaijan flared up in Nagorno-Karabakh yesterday, as Azeri rockets pounded the capital, Stepanakert, and Armenian forces seized the Azeri town of Khojaly.

The Azerbaijani interior minister, Tofik Kerimov, told the independent news agency Interfax that 100 people were killed in the attack on Khojaly, an Azeri stronghold in the mainly Armenian enclave. Armenian sources said casualties were much lower because civilians had been evacuated.


Unquestionably, however, there was a huge escalation in the four-year-old conflict, forcing the Iranian foreign minister, Ali Akbar Velayati, to abandon a plan to visit Nagorno-Karabakh yesterday as part of his attempt to mediate.

Russian television showed terrifying scenes of heavy Grad rockets blasting Stepanakert, large parts of which have been laid waste by Azeri bombardment. Armenian forces have retaliated by firing on nearby Shusha, the only Azeri town in Nagorno-Karabakh still in the hands of Azerbaijan's troops.

Each side accuses the other of trying to drive out its population. They both allege former Soviet troops have been helping their opponents - a charge hotly denied by the local command, which says several soldiers have been killed despite their refusal to get involved.

The attack on Khojaly, which the Azeri Popular Front said had been left "in ashes", appears to have been part of an Armenian counter-offensive to halt the bombardment on the capital. A concerted Armenian effort to take Shusha too can be expected in the next few days. Armenian forces also regained control of Stepanakert's airport yesterday.

Last Sunday Azeri forces overran an arms depot belonging to former Soviet troops in Agdam, just outside Nagorno-Karabakh, and seized huge quantities of arms, including Grad rockets.

Mr Velayati had talks with Azerbaijan's President Ayaz Mutalibov on Tuesday, and is due to see President Levon Ter-Petrosyan in the Armenian capital, Yerevan, today. But on the ground, his mediation efforts have been brushed aside as ruthlessly as were earlier attempts by Russia. Reports by Tehran Radio on Tuesday that both sides had agreed to a 24-hour ceasefire were greeted with incredulity by both Armenia and Azerbaijan. Iran said a second attempt at a ceasefire would be made today.

Yesterday the French minister for humanitarian action, Bernard Kouchner, said France was trying to put together a peace plan for the region by involving the European Community, the CSCE and the United Nations, which Armenia and Azerbaijan are due formally to join next week.

The plan, which France will present to the EC, "envisages a ceasefire followed by demilitarisation, and in the short term, access to the wounded and the establishment of humanitarian corridors," Mr Kouchner said.

- Three soldiers died in a mutiny by hundreds of construction troops stationed at the former Soviet space centre of Baikonur, in Kazakhstan, Russian television reported yesterday. It said the mutiny broke out in protest against abysmal living conditions and ill treatment by officers. Several barracks were burned down, 17 cars were stolen and 35,000 roubles stolen from a paymaster's office.}}

:Hi. I've read a few articles by him, and skimmed over his book on the history of Armenian nationalism, which was based on his PhD. thesis.

==Armenian Genocide's influence on the Holocaust==
I've been reading a book ([[Robert Fisk]]'s book ''The Great War For Civilisation'', pages 329-331) which among other things, draws some links between various German officers who witnessed episodes of the Armenian Genocide and then later became Nazis (some of which carrying out the Holocaust, others involved in planning it), and some of them also made reference apparently to the Armenian Genocide (including Hitler's famous statement of course). I had two questions for you: one- do you think its too risky to add (could it provoke an unwanted edit war? Be challenged for POV?) and two, do you think that's enough (plenty of quotes, but only one source) and if not, do you have more sources? --[[User:Yalens|Yalens]] ([[User talk:Yalens|talk]]) 19:16, 30 June 2011 (UTC)

== Battle of Malibeyli and Gushchular ==

What are your thoughts on the non-neutral unpublished website "sources" on the [[Battle of Malibeyli and Gushchular]] article? This issue has been consistantly ignored. As per Wikipedia:Reliable Sources[http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Wikipedia:Reliable_sources#Self-published_and_questionable_sources_as_sources_on_themselves];<br>
"'''Self-published and questionable sources as sources on themselves'''"<br>
Self-published or questionable sources may be used as sources of information about themselves, especially in articles about themselves, without the requirement that they be published experts in the field, so long as:<br>
1. the material is not unduly self-serving;<br>
'''2. it does not involve claims about third parties (such as people, organizations, or other entities);'''<br>
3. it does not involve claims about events not directly related to the subject;<br>
4. there is no reasonable doubt as to its authenticity;<br>
5. the article is not based primarily on such sources.<br>
...these non-neutral unpublished website "sources" clearly violate #2 of "Self-published and questionable sources as sources themselves". Which means they do not pass for [[Wikipedia:Reliable Sources|reliable sources]] on wikipedia and need to be removed. --[[User:Kansas Bear|Kansas Bear]] ([[User talk:Kansas Bear|talk]]) 21:41, 8 September 2011 (UTC)

== Please no POV pushing by erasing the different versions of the name of the city of Kars in other languages. ==

Please no POV pushing by erasing the different versions of the name of the city of Kars in other languages, especially of those countries and ethnicities that ruled the city and/or settled there. I am aware that the Armenian period in the history section of the city is delibaretely erased. This does constitute as vandalism as does the erasing of the city’s name in the other languages. 
The discussion(s) in the talk page between Turkish/Azeri and Armenian Wikipedists does not settle the "dispute" of the city’s history and its names in different languages at all, because the discussion from both sides (which is still ongoing for years) has nationalist overtones and is an attempt to ignore and overide or alltogether erase the periods of the city’s history each side sees as "incovenient". Please refrain from doing so again. The impartiality and neutrality has to be upheld.

[[User:Noraton|Noraton]] [[User talk:Noraton|talk]] 12:45, 24 November 2011 (UTC).

:I did not blindly revert, despite automatically branding it "POV". I am not Turkish, Azeri, or Armenian and I am not taking sides on this obviously controverisal issue. However as I stated before the impartiality and neutrality has to be upheld. And despite the near identical pronounciation of the city's name by the certain ethnicities who ruled and/or settled in this city in the past and/or who presently live is relevant. The issue here is not about which ethnicity ruled the longest or had the most impact. See also the articles [[Istanbul]] (Toponymy section) and [[Names of Istanbul]] for comparison.

== The naming dispute of the other names of [[Kars]] has not been resolved as of 7 December 2011, please refrain from unilateral changes by removing the other names of the city. ==

The naming dispute of the other names of Kars has not been resolved as of 7 December 2011, therefore the unilateral removal of the other versions of the name of Kars in Azeri and Kurdish is unconstructive and borders on ethnocentric POV pushing. Please refrain from doing so again. I had started a discussion page in [[Talk:Kars|Kars talk page]] about the naming dispute of the city of [[Kars]]. Unfortunately there are no serious attempts to solve it, but to drag it on and add ethnocentric POV pushing from each side, which is continuing for years. This is not to you personally, but to all sides involved in this naming dispute.

As I stated in the discussion page that I opened on 25 November 2011, I put a proposal for ending the naming disputes of Kars through an arbritation by neutral third opinions of administrators. The best option is to refer this to neutral third opinions of administrators.

Users edit the history of the city's name and history subjectively, by removing the different versions of the city's name and various eras of the city's history as they see fit. That is why I request from you not erase the other versions of the name of Kars in Azeri and Kurdish, as it was unilaterally erased, by claiming that the dispute has been resolved, while it has not. The dispute involving two different side and not one side as you have claimed to erase the other names of the city of Kars. Unfortunately this is POV pushing by Turkish/Azeri and Armenian Wikipedia users to erase and ignore sections of the city's history they don't like. That is why I will restore the previous names. You have edited in a POV manner just as the other Turkis/Azeri and Armenain Wikipedia users are doing so in the city's article.

{{tb|Stefan2|Possibly unfree images}}

:regarding the "unfree image" issue. The user who added the tag has done the same to many images. At first I thought it was being done for specific malicious reasons (to remove images of Armenian subjects) but the user has done it to lots of unrelated images. Read the passage in the cited Armenian copyright laws. It is another example of the backwardness of laws and the legal system in Armenia. Azerbaijan has the same sort of law, so I suppose, if your image is removed, you could have a go at removing some Azerbaijan-related images - make enough fuss and maybe somewhere down the line one or the other will see sense and change the law, and whatever Azerbaijan does, Armenia will do as well, and vice-versa! A long while ago an Azeri propagandist tried to get the image of the Genocide Memorial removed using the same reason, but it survived because I pointed out that it was a ceremony at the memorial that was being depicted as the primary subject, and not the actual memorial structure.

Your sources are all but modern Armenian (except one), which could potentially be biased. I have read Prof Toumanoff's, hence I am citing the exact page and book. It seems to me you are biased to the subject, but I must insist that you must be objective and not remove sources. --[[User:AktadG|AktadG]] ([[User talk:AktadG|talk]]) 20:07, 27 March 2012 (UTC)

== [[Talk:Nagorno-Karabakh]] ==

Hello MarshallBagramyan. If you have [[Talk:Nagorno-Karabakh]] on your watchlist you might notice the RfC that has been opened there. I am hoping to get a source-based discussion going in which experienced editors will participate. I see that you've created a lot of articles and my impression is that you have a critical eye for sources. Can you suggest other editors who have worked in AA who have done a lot of content work? I am hopeful that people will participate regardless of any national loyalties they may have. I think [[User:Golbez]] could be helpful but he's out of town at the moment. [[User:Kansas Bear]] does content work but he does not seem active. [[User:Dbachmann]] has already been contacted but he made a suitably ironic reply. Let me know if you can think of anyone else I should invite. Feel free to contact any experienced editors you can think of yourself. Thanks, [[User:EdJohnston|EdJohnston]] ([[User talk:EdJohnston|talk]]) 03:50, 20 April 2012 (UTC)
:Thanks for your comment. I have the feeling that if a group of random sensible editors were gathered together, they could sort out the [[Nagorno-Karabakh]] article in a day or two of collaboration and reading the sources. Of course there is no way of selecting such a group, or giving them authority, and most people would be wary of the flak. But it's a dream of how a proper article could be created. Probably not great, but neutral. [[User:EdJohnston|EdJohnston]] ([[User talk:EdJohnston|talk]]) 19:01, 25 April 2012 (UTC)

==Re:Medieval Georgian primary sources==
Hi Marshal. I would be happy to try and help you. ''Kartlis Tskhovreba'' is actually a collection of at least 10 primary sources. [[The_Georgian_Chronicles#Components|Here's the list of components]]. The other major text is ''[[Conversion of Kartli (chronicle)|The Conversion of Kartli]]'', also a collection, but independent of ''Kartlis Tskhovreba''. Unfortunately, not all texts are available in English. Here's the list of most up-to-date translations:
*[[Robert W. Thomson|Thomson, Robert W.]] (1996), ''Rewriting Caucasian History''. [[Oxford University Press]], {{ISBN|0198263732}} — This includes the ''Chronicle of Kartli'' (for the history of 786-1072) and the ''History of the King of Kings David'' (for 1072-1125) with corresponding Armenian adaptations.
*Vivian, Katharine (1991), ''The Georgian chronicle: the Period of Giorgi Lasha''. Amsterdam: Adolf M. Hakkert. — Incomplete translation of the ''Histories and Eulogies of the Sovereigns'' (for 1156-1212), ''History of the Five Reigns'' (for 1125-1223), and ''History of the Queen of Queens Tamar'' (for 1184–1210/1213).
*Rapp, Stephen H. (2003), ''Studies in Medieval Georgian Historiography: Early Texts And Eurasian Contexts''. Peeters Publishers, {{ISBN|90-429-1318-5}} — Includes the ''Conversion of Kartli'' with its royal lists, and the components of Kartlis Tskhovreba such as ''History of the Kings and Patriarchs of the Georgians'' (4th century BC–5th century AD), ''History of King Vakhtang Gorgasali'' (5th–8th centuries), ''Martyrdom of Saint Archil'' (736–786), the ''History of the Bagratids'' (for 6th century–1031), and also a [[Divan of the Abkhazian Kings|brief document listing kings of Abkhazia]].

There is also Brosset's classical, but now out-of-date French translation available at Google Books. Please let me know if there is anything else I can do to help.--[[User:Kober|Kober]]<sup>[[User talk:Kober|Talk]]</sup> 12:11, 8 July 2012 (UTC)

:Hey. Sorry for a late reply. Yeah, Rapp's book is really difficult to get. Unfortunately, I don't have it at hand right now. Regarding the Georgian architecture, I think Antony Eastmond's Royal Imagery in Medieval Georgia (1998) is the best text for the function and purpose of medieval Georgian architecture (and arts in general), especially in regards with its function to promote royal prestige.

== Article request ==

Hello Comrade Marshal! I am looking for Guilland's "L’expédition de Maslama contre Constantinople (717-718)", and it was pointed out to me that you [http://en.wikipedia.org/w/index.php?title=Leo_III_the_Isaurian&diff=prev&oldid=305885287 added it] as a reference in Leo III's article. If this means that you have access to it (hopefully in digital form), could you please send it to me or point out where you found it? Thank you. 16:22, 9 July 2012 (UTC)

:Sincere thanks for the offer, but the guys at [[WP:REX]] came first! So no worries. Cheers, [[User:Cplakidas|Constantine]]  [[User talk:Cplakidas| ✍ ]] 06:55, 12 July 2012 (UTC)

== Notable Armenians ==
Barev MarshallBagramyan jan, would you mind helping me to find some famous female Armenians. I can't recall any now. I added [[Sirusho]] to [[Armenians]] page infobox, but I don't really consider her a good choice.--[[User:Yerevanci|Yerevanci]] ([[User talk:Yerevanci|talk]]) 15:26, 25 July 2012 (UTC)
:Thanks, probably [[Silva Kaputikyan]] if the one that deserves to be on the infobox.
:And one more thing. Do you think that leaving last names of notables is a good idea? Or should the name include at least the initial of the first name like "V. Sargsyan" for Vazgen Sargsyan? This is a problem in case of [[Gregory the Illuminator]], for whom I can't think of a shorter name. --[[User:Yerevanci|Yerevanci]] ([[User talk:Yerevanci|talk]]) 16:24, 25 July 2012 (UTC)
::And what about just leaving their last names as done for some people in [[Serbs]] article? I mean, it could be done for Abovyan, Tumanyan and Khachaturian, because there aren't many Armenians with those last names, but Vazgen Sargsyan it's a liitle problem, because current president and prime minister both have Sargsyan last name and it can create some confusion.
::What you think of Andranik. Most Armenians, including me, don't call him by his last name Ozanian, but rather by first name Andranik and often as Zoravar Andranik (General Andranik). What do you think is right to put as his name on the infobox? "Andranik Ozanian", "Andranik" or "Gen. Andranik"? I chose "Gen. Andranik", but I don't really like that way, because Gen. X, Gen. Y is kind of inappropriate for encyclopedia. Don't you think? --[[User:Yerevanci|Yerevanci]] ([[User talk:Yerevanci|talk]]) 17:02, 25 July 2012 (UTC)

== Andranik ==
Hey there, so I would like to ask you some questions. Why did you delete the list of list of things that are named after Andranik? Don't you think it has place in tha article? And why did you delete parts of "statues and memorials" section? --[[User:Yerevanci|Yerevanci]] ([[User talk:Yerevanci|talk]]) 18:38, 3 August 2012 (UTC)

Well, the quotations aren't from just ordinary people, they're from notables. And I didn't add the quotes just to make him look great, if there are quotations that are negative I would also like to put them there. It's not a case of bias. 
As a basis of listing the statues and streets I took the articles of [[Dwight D. Eisenhower]] and [[Douglas MacArthur]]. The later one even has a separate page about [[Places named for Douglas MacArthur|places named for him]].
Also, don't you think that at least the major streets should be mentioned there? Like the one in Malatia or the ones in Plodiv and Cordoba, which are quite important in terms of introducing his memory to the reader as showing his significance abroad.--[[User:Yerevanci|Yerevanci]] ([[User talk:Yerevanci|talk]]) 20:46, 3 August 2012 (UTC)
One more thing. Khachik Dahstents's quote isn't a cultural reference, it's actually based on what [[Makhluto]] told Dashtents. So it should be considered a description of Andranik's life in Fresno. --[[User:Yerevanci|Yerevanci]] ([[User talk:Yerevanci|talk]]) 20:52, 3 August 2012 (UTC)
I really appreciate your edits, so I won't delete your edits on the upper part. I'll just add back the bottom part about legacy and memory.--[[User:Yerevanci|Yerevanci]] ([[User talk:Yerevanci|talk]]) 22:32, 3 August 2012 (UTC)

Marshal jan, please take a look at [[Dwight D. Eisenhower]] (includes a section named Tributes and memorials) and [[Douglas MacArthur]] (a feautured article, even has a separate page about [[Places named for Douglas MacArthur|places named for him]]). Doesn't Andranik also deserve these? Isn't Andranik much more to Armenians than Eisenhower and MacArthur combined to Americans?  --[[User:Yerevanci|Yerevanci]] ([[User talk:Yerevanci|talk]]) 20:34, 4 August 2012 (UTC)

I never said the list of statues and school named after him with all the pictures must be there. No. If you look at the article I tried to clean it up myself. The only thing I complained about your edits was that you simply deleted the "statues and memorial" list, which isn't quite refinement. I do agree that things named for him should be concise, but not that much. You should at least name those 4-5 cities outside Armenia where his statues stand. Ախպեր ջան, ստեղ քո դեմ գնացող, կամ քո արածներին հակադրվող չկա, ուղղակի ցանկանում եմ որ նրա մասին հոդվածը ամբպղջական լինի և հայտնվի հիմնական էջում: Էտքան բան: Իսկ քեզ շատ հարգում եմ, որպես այստեղի հնաբնակներից և կցանկանայի որ այդ գործում դու ևս քո ներդրում ունենայիր: --[[User:Yerevanci|Yerevanci]] ([[User talk:Yerevanci|talk]]) 18:20, 5 August 2012 (UTC)

I totally agree with you. We should concentrate on his life. The reason I was doing the legacy and memory section is because it is easy to find online. So I just wanted to be done with that part first. I didn't find much reliable sources on his life. There is this book called ''General Andranik and the Armenian Revolutionary Movement'' by Antranig Chalabian (1988), which as I understand is the only complete book on Andranik's life. I can't find its online version and the book costs like $100 on Amazon. I don't know what we can do here. --[[User:Yerevanci|Yerevanci]] ([[User talk:Yerevanci|talk]]) 16:53, 6 August 2012 (UTC)

== Andranik during WWI  ==

Barev Marshall jan, do you have any idea about sources (available online) that cover Andranik's activities during WWI: 1915-early 1918?

== Vandalizing Andranik Ozanian ==

Dear Marshall, I don't see any reason why you deleted the text I added in Zangezur section. I already told you that it's not entirely copied from Hovannisian's book. I already did do wording change and it's not any kind of copyright violation. Why are you simply deleting it? If you can't contribute with anything else, then please keep away from the article. If you still consider it copyright violation, go ahead report it. --[[User:Yerevanci|Yerevanci]] ([[User talk:Yerevanci|talk]]) 21:46, 12 August 2012 (UTC)
 
If you didn't understand from the last time, I will repeat again. Go ahead report it if there is any type of violation. --[[User:Yerevanci|Yerevanci]] ([[User talk:Yerevanci|talk]]) 22:27, 12 August 2012 (UTC)

Hi Marshall. Armenian deportations page is forwarded to the genocide page. And the resource state "deportations".

Where is the evidence?
I do not believe that you have visited the site of Khtzkonk Monastery.
If you have, then you have only seen what you wish to see.
I have no real clue as to why you wish the English version of Wikipedia to be a source of unverified claims as propaganda.
The photos illustrated on your favourite Virtual Ani site, as well as a wealth of articles on this self-same site, show incontrovertibly that your views cannot be sustained without serious reservation.
In short, your editing is scarcely honorable in its respect of standard academic criteria and procedures.
Shame on you for not even reading carefully what has been posted and assuming that its meaning is what you wish it to mean.

== Regarding some recent Armenian article changes ==

This user who goes by the name of Kentronhayastan [http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Special:Contributions/Kentronhayastan], Ive noticed his edits for a while now, and they are not exactly describing who he really is. I mean to clarify to you, what im saying is if you notice his edits on the Armenian articles, he pretends he is doing good to the Armenian history, but in fact, he is corrupting it in a clever way. He is an imposter actually. I noticed for example he added a whole bunch of foreign languages to all the articles on our history, and someone else did a good job of reverting those. He basically is POV pushing just about any time in our history articles of foreign rule. He tried to put Islam in all the history articles, hah, and included like 10 other languages, where it says languages. The person that reverted him did a good job and restored the native language Armenian to be the only main language of those times. Specially the Kingdoms of Armenia , whether they were Ancient, or the Modern kingdoms like Bagratuni, and the Antiquity. He also had purposely removed the Marzpanate Mamikonian period, and the other person asked him to restore it back. Also if you can help out please restore back where it says "Armenia Major" in the Antiquity, to "Kingdom of Armenia", this is what it said earlier and this guy Kentronhayastan reverted it back to Armenia Major. Its suppose to say Kingdom of Armenia, because the only Kingdom of Armenia mentioned first is in the Middle Ages. Its showing that there was no Kingdom of Armenia in ancient times? If you notice he recently also changed Commagene to "Kingdom of Commagene", but didnt change Armenia Major to "Kingdom of Armenia". Please put back the name "Kingdom of Armenia", in our antiquity. Thank you. And if you can also remove Armeno-Phrygian from the History template also, because that was never there, and this imposter which im suspicious of is trying to ruin our history. Also he tried to change the language of the Orontid period, by saying it was Proto-Armenian, it was never Proto-Armenian, and everyone excepts that that was earlier than that time.

Also he is the one that made the new image for the Template [http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/File:ArmenianHistoryImage_KhorVirap_Eternity_alt2_small.png], the one with the Armenian eternity symbol and Mount Ararat with Khor Virap there in that image on the Template History of Armenia. It use to be the Coat of Arms of Armenia, but now he put this new one which is good. But he wants to restore back the Coat of Arms, when he himself made this new image. He is purposely doing this just to ruin Armenian history and culture. Please vote to keep the new image of eternity symbol and Ararat , instead of the Coat of Arms, which is only about the Modern history. This image is better cause its about all the History etc etc. So when he puts, of if he puts a vote, please vote for the current image on the template. Thanks for your help.

I think the article should remain separate for a more detailed organized view of the Armenian Architectural scene.

==[[Hemshin peoples]] and [[Mesrop Mashtots]]==
Hi. For the past few weeks I've been dealing with an editor who seems intent on removing references to the Hemshin peoples' Armenian origin from the article's introduction. The editor's reasoning is that we should refer to "previous discussions" as precedent, but after reading through the talk page archives I only see an administrator's failure at helping reach a consensus. A couple of other editors have been removing sentences relating to St. Mesrop's contribution to the invention of the Georgian and Caucasian Albanian alphabets. I have been reverting these edits periodically but it has grown tiresome and I am wondering what should be done about it? I am approaching you first since you seem to be informed on these subjects and because I do not want to be accused of assuming bad faith. <span style="font-family:Verdana;"><b>[[User:JackalLantern|<span style="color:red;">Jackal</span>]]</b></span> 13:18, 24 January 2013 (UTC)

== [[Nagorno-Karabakh War]] ==

Hey Marshal, so I was just reading through the Karabakh War article and I suddenly noticed something that is too obvious—the Soviet Union was actually a major player of the war. The Soviet army was brought into Yerevan and Baku to crack down the demonstrations, the Moscow-controlled forces, along with the Soviet Azeri ones, deported Armenians from the villages around Kirovabad during [[Operation Ring]]. Doesn't this make the Soviet Union a belligerent? 

Also, if we put 20 February 1988 – 16 May 1994 the date of the war, shouldn't [[Armenian SSR]], [[Azeri SSR]] and [[NKAO]] also be in the 'Belligerents' section, because it wasn't until 1991 when the countries gained and/or proclaimed there independence? 

What about [[Karabakh Committee]], [[Pan-Armenian National Movement]] and [[Azerbaijani Popular Front Party]]? I think these organizations were ''de facto'' sides of the war.

This is what I mean. I know, it looks complicated and that's not what I want, but it needs to be simplify somehow.  --[[User:Yerevanci|<span style="color:red;">'''Ե'''</span><span style="color:blue;">րևանցի</span>]] [[User talk:Yerevanci|<sup>talk</sup>]]  20:47, 25 March 2013 (UTC)

[[File:Nagorno-Karabakh War belligerents.png|400px]]

:That's a tough question. On the one hand Armenia and Azerbaijan still were part of the USSR when the MVD and Soviet military took part in Operation Ring. That doesn't make the USSR so much a belligerent but it siding with Azerbaijan to resolve the conflict that was brewing within its borders. In other instances it was the Soviet army protecting the Armenians and chasing away Azerbaijani ''pogromchiks''. I think the way it stands is alright, without complicating it further for the reader. --[[User:MarshallBagramyan|Marshal Bagramyan]] ([[User talk:MarshallBagramyan#top|talk]]) 16:36, 26 March 2013 (UTC)

:Hi Yerevantsi. I'm not well-versed in publications and information on Armenian political figures of the 1990s. Since you're a resident there, I figure you might know as much or more than I know. Your best bet would be to look at any major books that were published during the time and, if you're really determined, mine through the newspapers for excerpts and pieces on Sargsyan. I don't perhaps [http://iseees.berkeley.edu/bps/publications/2000_04-asto.pdf this article] might help you out.

== Need help with translation ==

Hello MarshallBagramyan. It's not uncommon that new editors add articles to the English Wikipedia that are actually not in English. So there are templated messages to notify them about Wikipedia in other languages. Usually these consist of a statement in the user's native language and the English equivalent, but there are still some templates that have only English messages. Could you please add the equivalent translation of the English message to {{tl|Contrib-hy1}}? It should be placed above the English text. Your help would be very appreciated.
