Speaking to my sock

Hi my second me. It seems that either you are my sock[1] or I am according to Guildenrich[2]. Although I have repeatedly ask him to go for a check or to stop accusing[3][4], he insisting spreading the rumour around (per Goebels: "accusing accusing something is always remain"). Recently he did it again with Ironholds[5]. To me actions must taken. Will you do it or I will? --Factuarius (talk) 09:20, 9 November 2009 (UTC)

"Suppose" Fut? --Factuarius (talk) 09:40, 9 November 2009 (UTC)

I am very annoyed learning that he accuse me of being your sock. Until today I was the master. I am going to post a protest for this unfair sadden change, directly to his talk page. Can you plz do it for me? --Factuarius (talk) 19:55, 9 November 2009 (UTC)

Speaking to my 'master'

depressing, but take an advice: Try for a change to be a little wiser, Ι wasn't arrogant when a few hours before you were my tail and that's an evidence about who could be the real 'master'. Life is full of surprises Alexikoua and tomorrow is a new day, he may change again his mind, and then you might be able to answer by yourself to the question.. --Factuarius (talk) 22:29, 9 November 2009 (UTC)

Sorry, the book says that many Albanians trace their roots, not that Albanians are actually descendants of Achilles, the gay lover of Patroclus. Please, let's discuss this at the talk-page. Guildenrich (talk) 23:27, 9 November 2009 (UTC)

Epirus Map

The map found on the Epirus (region) is clearly original research. This one: http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/File:EpirusEduMap.jpg being created as synthesis of several cherry picked sources is clearly against policies. Just as well, one can cherry pick eight other academic sources from another point of view and then show it as fact. Azalea pomp (talk) 22:19, 11 November 2009 (UTC)

I posted a response on the Epirus region page. Azalea pomp (talk) 00:45, 12 November 2009 (UTC)

I posted some more responses on the Epirus region talk page. Azalea pomp (talk) 19:57, 13 November 2009 (UTC)

Some more comments again on the Epirus page. My main purpose for the Epirus page it so assure that we are accurately using the sources for the maps. I want them to be correct and thank you for your work on fixing the Mycenaean dot map. What is interesting is that the Greeks, Macedonians, Albanians, Illyrians, Dacians, Thracians, Phrygians, Paeonians, Bryges are all Indo-European anyway, but still I think that since we are dealing with very specific groups and many of which are little known, we just can't blanket terms like Thracian on tribes just because we may think they are related. We have to use the academic sources and what the scholars have. Whatever personal views or theories we have, we should not include those. Azalea pomp (talk) 21:51, 13 November 2009 (UTC)

Thanks the new map of Mycenaean sites looks nice. Azalea pomp (talk) 03:59, 15 November 2009 (UTC)

Turks of Western Thrace

Hi Alexikoua, what do you mean by 'a number given by the same minority'? This reference was published in 2009 and thus probably the most recent publication of any estimated figures of the Turkish minority.Thetruthonly (talk) 16:13, 20 January 2010 (UTC)

Ok I see what you mean. If you want we can change the wording e.g. write something alone the lines of 'according to the Turkish minority...' What do you think?Thetruthonly (talk) 16:33, 20 January 2010 (UTC)

Thanks for that.Thetruthonly (talk) 16:36, 20 January 2010 (UTC)

Hi again Alexikoua, I was just wondering if you could help me. According to sources, the last Greek census which gave data on religious affiliation and mother tongue was in 1951.

Hello! I invite you to join WikiProject NPOV, a WikiProject whose aim is to increase the neutral point of view of articles related to controversial issues and topics. It is chiefly designed to help users collaborate on articles, but also to resolve disputes, and to coordinate work on vandalism clean-up. All the best, --Cinéma C 22:05, 12 February 2010 (UTC)

Please pay attention

When are you going to stop already reverting everything I do. The map is wrong and the name is not applicable for the whole state and is not universally established. --Gligan (talk) 13:58, 13 February 2010 (UTC)

If I put "cn", there can always be found a citation for that (that is as if to write that Alexander of Macedon was an ethnic Macedonian and to tell you to put a citation needed note instead of reverting) which does not mean that the term is widely accepted. In fact, that is a 19th century invention in the style of what the Macedonians are doing now. Kaloyan was indeed sometimes called Emperor of Bulgarians and Vlachs and what? Was Bulgaria under Simeon Bulgaro-Roman Empire? That thing is completely inapplicable for the whole existence of the country and not universally accepted therefore it does not belong to the lead. It is already mentioned in a note. As for the map, that you brought back after you reverted me - 1) it is wrong 2)there are already plenty of maps in the article. You should not blindly revert my edits.

As for Kostja and Monshuai, I don't know what is their aim but after all the lead will be changed to what it is agreed in the discussion. I already advised Monshuai to put his ideas as a suggestion for the lead or to add them in one of the current suggestions. --Gligan (talk) 23:08, 13 February 2010 (UTC)

No problem at all Alexikoua, but I believe it's time with Sulmues's participation to clear the article's issues as to remove these flags. I don't know if you and he, have the time but I believe, it's necessary. As you might seen, I asked him to open a talk there about that, as to facilitate a discussion which would help to close the issues. If he'll do it be our quest. --Factuarius (talk) 07:19, 17 February 2010 (UTC)

I was here to drop a line to Alexikoua and I saw my name. What's exactly the issue, Factuarius? sulmues (talk) --Sulmues 14:36, 17 February 2010 (UTC)

Funny, and where is the line? Are you sure that you are not following me all the way around? Anyway, this is not the right place to discuss the issue (in fact the issues) the Cham Albanians has connecting to the flag you want to remove. As I already told, you must open a discussion in that article's talk page as to discuss and correct any possible issue as to remove the flag you want. That's what is all about here. And don't forget to drop the line to Alexikoua. AND STOP FOLLOW ME EVERYWHERE !! thanks, --Factuarius (talk) 03:56, 18 February 2010 (UTC)

The line was already dropped below, on the Protocol of Corfu part 1 minute after I wrote to you, and I ain't following you, I really saw that you mentioned me and I had no clue what was it all about. Cham Albanians? Will do it at some time. sulmues (talk) --Sulmues 22:38, 18 February 2010 (UTC)

Helping you

You may want to move Vasileios of Dryinoupolis as a notable figure from Libohova to Labova e Kryqit, by openinng a new article on Labova e Kryqit. I will help with that and we'll put the image of the 12th century church. Libohova is 100% muslim village, and even though they are close they are separate. Labova e Kryqit is a 100% Christian village. sulmues --Sulmues 15:39, 19 February 2010 (UTC)

Actually they are further apart than what Boboshtica and Korca are between them, so if you removed Victor Eftimiu from Korca, then you should remove Vasil Papakristo from Libohova. sulmues --Sulmues 15:48, 19 February 2010 (UTC)

Maniots

Hi, with all due respect, i think you over-reacted here, if the ip was a banned user every edit is eligible to reversion of course. But it wasn't vandalism and to be frank i think it's a better choice. I don't believe "Turko-Albanian" has a very established usage in this or in any other historical context, in English sources that is. It's descriptive meaning is more perplexed also, while we might know that it refers mostly to Albanian Muslims faithful to the Gate, a reader could also understand "a mixed group of Albanians and Turks", "a group of mixed Turkish-Albanian origin" or at least "partly Turkified Albanians", all could be true, depending on occasion and perspective, but do our sources in this issue and the interpretation we give to them based on NPOV allow any of these assertions ? Just my two cents.--Δρακόλακκος (talk) 19:14, 27 February 2010 (UTC)

Ok, i see we have a different starting point here, i always thought that "Turko-albanians" refers to Albanian Muslims primarily, maybe i'm mislead from the topic i have mostly encountered it, Epirus, where indeed in all the texts i've read the terms coincide. The whole issue for me is not so important, that's why i opted for a discussion here and not in the article's talk page. Just some notes on the sources you picked, the first one confirms the definition i know, it mentions that Ljapidhes (which were a group of Albanian Muslims) where known in the local narrative as "Turko-Albanians". The second source mentions "Turkalbanians" as a literary translation of the Greek "Tourkalvanoi", this one includes Turks as well to its meaning but it still places its use inside a Greek perspective, and we don't see any further use of the term that would imply an endorsement. That said, i've taken a quick look at the search results you linked to, although some quite old publications are included, it seems at least one recent source treats "Turko-Albanian" (or "Turco-Albanian") as referring to Muslims in general, although the whole context is not available in googlebooks to be 100% sure. I guess if we are not sure about the ethnicity of Ottoman troops in this issue "Turko-Albanians" covers all possibilities, although "Turk-Albanians" seems more proper English.--Δρακόλακκος (talk) 04:48, 6 March 2010 (UTC)

There is sometihng very fishy going on with the revert war by the IPs in the 79.106 range on Greek Orthodox Church, Vasil Bollano, Erseka, Gjin Bua Shpata, Pyrros Dimas, Ghica family, Ali Pasha. I'm looking into it, probably a group of meatpuppets recruited off-wiki, who collaborate with one or two named users. It looks very coordinated. Definitely very suspicious, and they are clearly trying to set up some sort of revert trap. Athenean (talk) 22:53, 7 March 2010 (UTC)

Innocent people were booted as "socks" after two edits. That's how Albanian topics end up by never getting covered in Wikipedia, because many Albanians are blocked and we, the last of the Mohikans, have to waste time with the Greek team. You might have forgotten that after 2 years in Wikipedia you accused me of being Sarandioti's sock. Or not? So please don't play offended now. I'm looking to the future, please stop looking to the past. I await your thoughts on user:Stifle's talk page for the cooperation board.--_Sulmues ^{Let's talk} 01:50, 2 May 2010 (UTC)

Alexikoua, Please use talk page of related article if you have any disputes on the article. Mentioning just "see wp:npov" in your revert is not enough. Please give arguments and state exactly which parts of the article leads to neutrality discussion. As for your "possible meatpuppet" assumption, I invite you to verify this with a wikipedia admin.

Sanction notice

Further to this arbitration enforcement request and by the power vested in me under Wikipedia:ARBMAC#Discretionary_sanctions, you are hereby placed on a reverting restriction on all Balkans-related articles in the following terms:

• You may make no more than one revert per rolling 24-hour period on these articles
• If you do make a revert on such an article, you must post an explanation of why you have made the revert, to be at least 50 words and in English, to the talk page of the article, within 30 minutes of posting.
• "Balkans-related" is to be construed widely. If you are not certain whether a certain article is Balkans-related, assume that it is.

This restriction applies until the end of June. You may appeal the restriction to me, to WP:ANI, or to the Arbitration Committee. Stifle (talk) 10:54, 2 May 2010 (UTC)

Uhm, Alexikoua, you are aware that you broke this restriction just 10 minutes after you were notified of it, on Chameria [21], right? Fut.Perf. ☼ 13:06, 2 May 2010 (UTC)

User:Kushtrim123

The specific user, although being aware of the situation and adviced to follow 1rr rules,[[24]] on Greek-Albanian topics, he still insists on blind reverts: [[25]]. He already has a 2rr in 30' minutes by removing sourced content using wp:idontlike arguments.

Kushrim lately received a 1week block due to his long term edit-warring nature [[26].Alexikoua (talk) 16:57, 8 May 2010 (UTC)

If you're requesting an arbitration enforcement, file it at WP:AE. Stifle (talk) 17:38, 8 May 2010 (UTC)

Alexi, he received a warning, which was different from the notice that you and I got. We clearly need to follow the 1RR and explain in 50 words in the talk page. Kushtrim doesn't have to. --_Sulmues ^{Let's talk} 19:50, 10 May 2010 (UTC)

I know that. The case is that he continues his extreme spa activity, taking advantage this time of the restrictions imposed. As soon he continues his edit-warring nature, a new block will become inevitable.Alexikoua (talk) 05:02, 11 May 2010 (UTC)

Aviators

Hello Alexi! As always, very nice work on the aviators' articles. I've been meaning for years to write about them, so it's an extra joy to see them... Regarding Argyropoulos, I think that Venizelos' flight with him was also the first time a serving PM made a flight. If you could find a source to that effect, it'd be great! On the images, thanks a lot. I'll try to upload some more in the weeks to come, I've got quite a backlog... I hope you enjoy the ODB, and if you want anything else, let me know. Cheers, Constantine ✍ 11:14, 11 May 2010 (UTC)

Greek-Albanian "cooperation" board

Seems like our friend Sulmues has a very weird definition of "cooperation". He immediately ratted out Cat and Owl and is desperately trying to get him blocked. I suggested to Cat, and I suggest to you, to leave that meaningless "cooperation" board in protest. Let Sulmues cooperate with himself, since this is how he defines "cooperation". Looks like Future Perfect was right on that one, as usual. Athenean (talk) 03:48, 17 May 2010 (UTC)

I'm writing here because Athenean asks me to stay off his talk page. Our Albania TF has no rollbacker now because of user:Kedadi's ban. We are a very small Task Force and if someone of the Albania team gets out because of your continuous reporting (and everything was started by you through reporting Stupidus), it's fair that the rollbackers of the Greek team also get banned for ignoring the sanction. You have many other rollbackers, but no, the Cat and the Owl had to revert. Kedadi is completely idle now because of you and the Albania articles are suffering. Getting out of the task force was a hasty move. --_Sulmues ^{Let's talk} 15:55, 17 May 2010 (UTC)

Wait a minute, why is Stupidus related with Kedadi? We are also a very small TF: imagine 22,000 articles need lots of people to be patrolled.Alexikoua (talk) 19:34, 17 May 2010 (UTC)

Actually you are right: I have lost the count of Athenean's reports. Athenean reported Kedadi as a "sterile reverter", asking for his ban from Balkans, and that's when I jumped in his defense. We desperately need Kedadi and his work. As the Greek force needs Athenean or the Cat and the Owl as rollbackers. But if we are left without Kedadi, and on top of it, FPaS asks for sanctions for 8 people, reverters should be very careful. I endorsed FPS's suggestion because the least thing I like is edit-warring. However as a result of that, Athenean and Kedadi got sanctions, while the Cat and the Owl didn't, and that's not fair. On top of that you got out demonstratively from the board just to show your disdain from my actions, which just increases problems. I think the board had started to work well. If you are angry at me, then what does the collaboration board has anything to do with it?

I know you are a small team too, but we are way smaller. I would love it to have people like you in my team, and for that matter a rollbacker like Athenean would be fantastic as well. But you also have Cplakidas, Ptolion, Factuarius, and many others. We are only 3-4, you are 10-12 active ones. Actually we can't even be compared. Athenean has made way too many mistakes reporting me unjustly. Instead of focusing on reporting Albanians he should help in improving Greek articles and bringing them to higher classes the way you do. Worrying that Albanian language will have fringe theories is fine and dandy, but there is no need to report the Albanians right away when they join Wikipedia. He has to stop harassing the Albanians. There are lots of ways to be nice to newcomers and Athenean just doesn't use them and that's where the line of communication is dropped. --_Sulmues ^{Let's talk} 22:24, 17 May 2010 (UTC)

Factuarius, Ptolion? What are you taking about, these guys have retired. It seems Cplakidas has the Titanic duties to patrol 22,000 atricles these days. Alexikoua (talk) 05:30, 18 May 2010 (UTC)

hi

This says [27] As a matter of fact, people from the Christian villages – who insist on their Albanian national identity and refuse to be called Greek – have been moving to the town and even more to the United States, where they retain links dating back to the time of the pre-World War II migration known as kurbet. Meanwhile, their Muslim neighbours started in the early 1990s to migrate to Greece, where most of them changed their names and some converted to Orthodoxy. I understand that speaks about Albanian migration, ok? Stupidus Maximus (talk) 23:30, 18 May 2010 (UTC)

Greeks and Albanians left the area for 1 reason or every other reason. OK? Stupidus Maximus (talk) 23:36, 18 May 2010 (UTC)

Families left for reason of war, of kurbet, etj. Stupidus Maximus (talk) 09:27, 19 May 2010 (UTC)

Stupidus' insistence on calling Greek sources "POV" but then advertising his "enciclopedia" to us is the height of hypocrisy. He makes a mockery of anyone trying to discuss with him and it has crossed over into trolling at this point. Athenean (talk) 21:59, 19 May 2010 (UTC)

I did not add any single battle that happened in there. But, the Paramythia and Filiates Massacres are important, i.e. they are the key points of the ethnic cleansing, and I can found too much info on them.
