Province

Hello, why you reverted my edit on Şanlıurfa Province article? | Serchia (talk) 16:23, 23 March 2016 (UTC)

Because,Şanlıurfa Province page is a province (only official name; provinces is official structure) and Şanlıurfa page is a city (with official and non-official names) page. --Kmoksy (talk) 16:29, 23 March 2016 (UTC)

Redirects

Hi, I wanted to explain a little about why some of the redirects you've created are being nominated for deletion and others are not. First of all, remember that this is the English-language Wikipedia, so the focus is on English. But if an article is about a subject that is region- or language-specific, then redirects in languages related to it are okay. (For instance, many articles about South Korean pop singers have Korean redirects to them.) But if a topic isn't special to a particular place, people, or language, then only English redirects are allowed. That is why redirects to banana, apple, and oak need to be in English only. Those are commonly found all over the world. For the reasoning behind this policy, read WP:RFOREIGN. And if you have any questions, please feel free to ask me on my talk page. Happy editing! — Gorthian (talk) 20:00, 18 November 2016 (UTC)

Requesting help

Hi greetings,

I have been looking for update and expansion support for 2 following articles in draft namespace with information about Sorani (Kurdish) language (as part of effort to include world wide view), since some of online sources are indicating word 'Afrat' is used in Sorani to mean woman/wife and that word 'Afrat' meaning woman seems to share etymology with Awrat, Avrat, Avret, Aurat.

• Draft:Aurats (word) (article to cover grammar and linguistic part)

and

• Aurats (article to cover cultural women)

Please do have a look at the article, do update, expand, correct inaccuracies, suggest and discuss better article titles

Looking forward to your kind support.

Thanks and warm regards

Hi Bookku, I don't have much information on the topic. The word Afrat in Sorani Kurdish generally use to describe women. It is not used to describe a culturally distinct set of women. I added some information to the table from Draft:Aurats (word). Serchia (talk) 15:27, 31 July 2020 (UTC)

@Serchia: greetings again, First of all thanks for your proactive support. Basically these articles need a bit of support regarding cultural and historical usage of the words.

At least you know the language. Others, without any background at all have been stone walling every effort of the article in nascent stage itself and that is adding to more confusion and inaccuracies in describing the subject.

I don't know what happens in future, but since there is some shared history about this word and I wish subject gets a fair chance before getting rejected entirely, So whatever encyclopedic information either remains in same articles or gets merged some where else and remains on Wikiprojects in some form.

Thanks again and warm regards Bookku (talk) 11:01, 1 August 2020 (UTC)

Speedy deletion nomination of Domestika

If this is the first article that you have created, you may want to read the guide to writing your first article.

You may want to consider using the Article Wizard to help you create articles.

A tag has been placed on Domestika, requesting that it be speedily deleted from Wikipedia. This has been done under section G11 of the criteria for speedy deletion, because the page seems to be unambiguous advertising which only promotes a company, group, product, service, person, or point of view and would need to be fundamentally rewritten in order to become encyclopedic. Please read the guidelines on spam and Wikipedia:FAQ/Organizations for more information.

If you think this page should not be deleted for this reason, you may contest the nomination by visiting the page and clicking the button labelled "Contest this speedy deletion". This will give you the opportunity to explain why you believe the page should not be deleted. However, be aware that once a page is tagged for speedy deletion, it may be deleted without delay. Please do not remove the speedy deletion tag from the page yourself, but do not hesitate to add information in line with Wikipedia's policies and guidelines. If the page is deleted, and you wish to retrieve the deleted material for future reference or improvement, then please contact the deleting administrator.

Stop vandalizing Kirkuk

Your pro-Kurdish bias is clear. You changed the order of the ethnicities from Turkmen, Arab, Kurd to Arab, Kurd, Turkmen, which is an obvious attempt to minimise the significance and presence of Turkmens in their capital Kirkuk. The last reliable census shows Turkmen were the plurality in Kirkuk. Racism gets you nowhere. Stop your racist pro-Kurdish POV. TappyTappy42 (talk) 22:49, 28 September 2021 (UTC)
