@User:Mboix, I took encyclopedic note of the struggle section of our humanity is going through. It is very nice of you to support this effort by translating the article to your language. It seems some one from Catalan also translated the article. Hope and wish more languages to join in.

A tag has been placed on Aurat March requesting that it be speedily deleted from Wikipedia. This has been done under section G12 of the criteria for speedy deletion, because the page appears to be an unambiguous copyright infringement. This page appears to be a direct copy from http://www.aboardthedemocracytrain.com/instep-today-aurat-march-2018-freedom-over-fear. For legal reasons, we cannot accept copyrighted text or images taken from other web sites or printed material, and as a consequence, your addition will most likely be deleted. You may use external websites or other printed material as a source of information, but not as a source of sentences. This part is crucial: say it in your own words. Wikipedia takes copyright violations very seriously and persistent violators will be blocked from editing.

If the external website or image belongs to you, and you want to allow Wikipedia to use the text or image — which means allowing other people to use it for any reason — then you must verify that externally by one of the processes explained at Wikipedia:Donating copyrighted materials.

Hi. Thank you for your recent edits. An automated process has detected that when you recently edited Feminism in Pakistan, you added a link pointing to the disambiguation page Moral policing (check to confirm | fix with Dab solver).

Request of Help

I was looking for some small help. I created an article User:Bookku/Me Too movement (Pakistan) in user namespace. Article is almost ready but before taking to main namespace Looking for help in English language Spell-check, punctuation, grammar check and corrections. Using better alternative words etc. Thanks in advance.

Bookku (talk) 14:17, 22 January 2020 (UTC)[reply]

Draft:Me Too movement (Pakistan)‎

I've made it through the draft and still would encourage you to clarify with Earwig for any copyvios. In the future, may I suggest two rules for creating articles, as even in a draft copyright violations are unacceptable on wikipedia:

  • Never copy and paste anything into a Wikipedia article/draft.
  • Always write information in your own words.

If you are satisfied with the article but unable to move it to mainspace yourself, post again on Women in Red and someone will be glad to assist. I would not recommend submitting the draft to Articles for Creation, as they are backlogged. Happy editing. SusunW (talk) 21:16, 24 January 2020 (UTC)[reply]

@ SusunW
Hello, once again I don't have words for your great & timely support & guidance. As suggested by you I used Earwig & replaced a little more grammar & words. While doing so some times I get uncomfortable feeling to compromise grammar & words & dilute impact of original author just for the copyvio sake, I understand there is no other way out.
Any ways as suggested by you, I took article in main name space & just now some one assessed article to 'B' class & I am happy. Almost a year back I added period wise formatting to article Feminism in Pakistan besides created one more article Aurat March coming month some time I will update them if time permits.
Thanks again & warm regards

SusunW In last week some time I had created a stub article about a Pakistani feminist Sadia Khatri who works on unavailability of public spaces to Pakistani women but due to lack of enough sources left in between.

There was one more feminist Sabeen Mahmud who paid with her life for defending women right of choice, so last couple of days worked on article User:Bookku/Valentine's Day in Pakistan if you can spare some time for this article too I will be obliged.

Next I want to work on more feminist views / perspectives on Hijab day but that will take longer time for me.

Thanks & warm regards

Booku, I'll get to them over the next few days. If you need more urgent help, you might post on Women in Red. SusunW (talk) 20:11, 27 January 2020 (UTC)[reply]

SusunW Thanks, you can take your time. Actually this article I am looking for paragraph chronology support -which you are good at- apart from regular copy edit support.

Since on previous article you faced edit war, this time I will be posting requests on talk pages with gap of a day or so.

Thanks & warm regards

Bookku (talk) 03:44, 28 January 2020 (UTC)[reply]

Sorry that I am so slow, but because I am unfamiliar with the topics you write about, I read the sources before I rework the sections. I have finished with Valentine's Day. Please feel free to revert or make any changes if you do not agree with my edits. SusunW (talk) 20:37, 1 February 2020 (UTC)[reply]

@ SusunW,

My previous article Aurat March has been tagged with "This article provides insufficient context for those unfamiliar with the subject", Which I still need to address. This time I provided context and got tagged for being "essay like". When it comes to human rights my edges are usually sharp; you helped smooth those sharp edges and being encyclopedic. Being unfamiliar helps you in maintaining neutrality too.

At the most I can put in good amount of online research and collation Where as you have got all encyclopedic skills plus will to support and I am very much thankful to you for the same.

  • Request for revisit

Only 2 places I wish if you can revisit

1) At intro paragraph "...supported by merchants who can increase their prices during the week preceding February 14th."
My earlier purpose of mention of 'increase of price' was to indirectly indicate that there is demand in the Market that means it's a popular celebration.
Critics do have different version against commercial establishment benefiting from and supporting the celebrations.
2) Subsection heading "Against" in section "Public reaction" One is we have already covered main against group in detail in 'Antagonism' section. Second is the group suggesting substitution seem to play more of 'escapist' role by employing diversion.
I couldn't think of alternative word for subsection title "Against" as of now, but may be we can explore some different title in days to come.

As said earlier, I am very much pleased with your kind proactive support. Thanks and warm regards.

Shirkat gah moved to draftspace

An article you recently created, Shirkat gah, does not have enough sources and citations as written to remain published. It needs more citations from reliable, independent sources. (?) Information that can't be referenced should be removed (verifiability is of central importance on Wikipedia). I've moved your draft to draftspace (with a prefix of "Draft:" before the article title) where you can incubate the article with minimal disruption. When you feel the article meets Wikipedia's general notability guideline and thus is ready for mainspace, please click on the "Submit your draft for review!" button at the top of the page. — Sagotreespirit (talk) 13:01, 1 February 2020 (UTC)[reply]

Mi cuerpo es mío

Hello, nice to greet you again! the most used expression in Spanish that you refer to is "Mi cuerpo es mío" "My body is mine" and indeed the call for women in the registry was a performance by the artist Yolanda Dominguez. https://es.wikipedia.org/wiki/Yolanda_Dom%C3%ADnguez

You can learn more about the action in these two newspaper texts:

https://www.eldiario.es/sociedad/registro-mercantil-Madrid-estudiara-inscripcion_0_227477549.html

https://elpais.com/politica/2014/02/06/actualidad/1391707776_096749.html

But as Veronica León Buch says in:

Beyond the body: feminism as an emancipatory project:
http://www.mujeresenred.net/spip.php?article2202

"My body is mine", a slogan that emerged in the second wave of feminism, has remained a milestone to denounce violence against women and promote the decriminalization of abortion. It seems important to me to point out how this type of slogan, which I myself used for years, beyond the importance of the causes it claims, hides an ambiguous post-feminist discourse, which calls us to display greater creativity and critical spirit in search of new concepts. The first ambiguity is in the emphasis on the body, reinforcing its objectification: we own the body, we are not. This language fails to question the imaginaries that reduce us to a body or to be its administrators. Linked to this idea is that of commodification, through the language of property. Capitalism has taken pains to invent property mechanisms - property titles, patents, intellectual property - to commercialize what was previously non-transferable: land, ideas, knowledge. Thus, actions such as the one carried out in Spain, from going to the Property Registry to registering their bodies, from a capitalist point of view represents the first step to be able to trade it. Associating property rights, something characteristic of neoliberalism, weakens other possibilities, such as proposing non-appropriable and non-merchantable intangibles: air, water, human beings ... And finally, although this slogan promotes the Autonomy also points to individualization. Being mine, am I responsible for what happens to that body? Even if it is not violated? Wouldn't it make more sense to expect that, as a society, we all watch together so that no person is ever raped? The neoliberal imaginary always seeks to disarticulate societies, individualizing their problems, placing all responsibility on the choices of each person, while making invisible the external factors that condition and the economic structure designed to generate inequality.

Building autonomy and a sense of connection with oneself is still fundamental for women, but perhaps it makes more sense to think of discourses that reaffirm us as subjects. This type of slogan has also not been the most effective in promoting abortion decriminalization. In countries where it has been decriminalized, feminists knew how to position it as a problem of public health and social exclusion: while wealthy women abort in all safety, humble women die from aborting in conditions of risk. Abortion is more related to a decision about being a mother than to the body and it is pertinent to approach it from there: motherhood cannot be an imposition, it is a very serious decision that requires an endless number of emotional and material conditions. Tackling it from the body, on the other hand, places it as a dispute between individuals and States over the control of that object-body, failing to position ourselves as subjects and questioning the pardon that men enjoy in the matter. This type of language anchored in individualism and the body, in addition, has failed to generate consensus in public opinion - without which politicians hardly risk it - but has generated adverse reactions. And it is that along with neoliberalism we have also seen the resurgence of old traditions and fundamentalisms, a symptom of a failed revolution.

Posting requests for help on the talk pages of articles that are at best tangentially connected to your topic is not constructive. Please consider removing them.

It is useful to request input for multiple places, but the number of places should probably be far less than 86. I'd say stick to a handful of the most relevant wikiprojects, and articles if very closely related. CMD (talk) 17:07, 21 May 2020 (UTC)[reply]

Thanks, In Draft:Aurat, from South Asian side, I am also looking for assistance in adding information with refs regarding
1) 'tasawoor of Aurat' in Urdu and Hindi literature/biographies/poetry/drama/movies'. (Romanization of spelling of 'tasawoor' seems to have been done differently by different scholars 'tasawwor' etc.)
2) Various associate metaphors like 'Damaan', 'Chunari' 'Daaman', 'aanchal' 'chunari', 'Purdah', 'Kangan', 'Payal', 'Kajal' etc. that help describing cultural background of 'Aurat' as women.

Sorry, I am not looking for just dictionary definitions and general information , but as Metaphor associated with Aurat.
Metaphor is defined as "a figure of speech in which a word or phrase is applied to an object or action to which it is not literally applicable." For example "Daaman" being 'pak' or 'Napak' means here we don't take Daaman literally. Or "Daag/ Spot" in Chunari etc. Or another example would be in old Indian movies show two flowers touching each other instead of Hero Heroin becoming intimate.
And again how these metaphors help express cultural life of Aurat. Few of metaphors will be available in English sources online. I am looking for help from various Indian and Pakistani language sources like Urdu, Sindhi, Hindi literature / drama /movies etc. I suppose those would be available at least to some extent online one will need to take search in those languages.
Searching with Tasawwoor Aurat also gives some Urdu language sources. I am looking for including such information.
Thanks for your help Bookku (talk) 09:00, 1 July 2020 (UTC)[reply]

Bokku could you please provide me any English metaphor for aurat, so I may assist you to find in other languages Majun e Baqi (talk) 07:30, 2 July 2020 (UTC)[reply]

Since you asked I will give you few examples. But rather I prefer if one starts from non-English languages, so you can start from native languages and include positive impressions on traditional minds of people better. Feminists agree that South Asian women are represented as "cultural emblem". But they avoid describing what does "Cultural emblem" tasawwoor 'cultural image' means; that meaning needs to be caught from native language literature; we don't find much traditional image relating to 'haya' etc.much in English descriptions where you find it more times it will be critical. You will find usually more of mentions in English are critical. In Wikipedia we have to cover both rather all aspects positive impressions in traditional minds and criticism too. Any ways since you asked I give few example.

  • in this one metaphor of 'Suna angan' vis a vis 'tanha aurat' has been analyzed. In this Rekhti related book Gender, Sex, and the City: Urdu Rekhti Poetry in India, 1780-1870 metaphor of 'Kasbi Aurat' is discussed, a Pakistani academic journal [jgsi.fjwu.edu.pk/jgsi/article/view/61 Gender Representation through Animal Metaphors] discusses metaphors vis a vis animals like "Oont ki pakar aur aurat kay maker.." etc. but again as I said If you start from English you will remain in only critical circle, other side of the image in minds of North South Asia i.e. North India and Pakistan will not get proper representation without covering Urdu and Hindi sources for image tasawwoor of south Asian 'Aurat' and related metaphors. IMHO.

Thanks, Exactly while some Femists and liberal even other religious thoughts would criticize such metaphors, traditional people of that culture take it positively, discussing such metaphors help understand cultural nuances and cultural image.

@Cleopatran Apocalypse: greetings. Personally I would't have issues. But my personal experience on Wikipedia up till now does not make me enthusiastic of that prospect. As you suggest, well linked space is supposed to bring in more authors from diverse fields. But unfortunately I do not find Wikipedia environment friendly enough. Here curators over ride encyclopedic writers, they don't do even curation but only put up intimidating hat note notices and intimidate genuine encyclopedic writers too in various manners.
Curators want articles spick and span right from first moment. Right now article does not have even two paragraphs, they might harass the article like nothing.
As said above I have my reservations not to your idea but about restrictive Wikipedia culture, Still I leave that to your conscience and good faith. Thanks and best wishes. Bookku (talk) 16:48, 14 July 2020 (UTC)[reply]
Thanks friend. Though I have no taste for the company or the individual who founded it, I generally try to follow the Facebook motto of "move fast and break things." Doesn't always work, but it seems the best way to do things. I wouldn't worry about the haters. Just do good work, do it for fun, and keep doing it! The interest for me in your alerting me to this article is that it is the overarching theme that was tying together some of my recent professional and wikipedia interests, and I didn't quite realize that this was the uniting concept. I was examining different parts of the elephant, but didn't know that Sexual Politics was actually the elephant. Cleopatran Apocalypse (talk) 02:00, 15 July 2020 (UTC)[reply]
I do concur with your metaphor of 'the elephant' for sexual politics. You seem to be really enthusiastic then I would support you whole heart. Pl. do go ahead with your plan of trimming and moving to main space. We will see what happens.
At my speed of research and expansion of article it is likely to take couple of more months more. If your steps succeed in getting more editors to write it will help me save my effort and energy quite a bit.
Looking forwards to steps you take. Thanks for your enthusiastic support, and best wishes. Bookku (talk) 10:12, 15 July 2020 (UTC)[reply]

Regarding the Kithaab on Japanese Wikipedia

I tried to create it but it was deleted on the Japanese Wikipedia as the Japanese Wikipedia did not want this article I find that really odd since other Wikipedia languages have the article include the English, Chinese and Malayalam Wikipedia languages 🌸 1.Ayana 🌸 (talk) 17:10, 6 August 2020 (UTC)[reply]

@1.Ayana:, First of all many many thanks for all the efforts you did put in.
I searched deletion log in ja.wikipedia.org and also on English Wikipedia. I did not find any deletion up till now. How did you write Page title Kithaab in Japanese script, I will try to search deletion log with that on Japanese Wikipedia.
Since you have already done effort, I will try to know more about the issue on Japanese Wikipedia since not only Chinese but many other major languages including German, French, Russian do have the article.
Waiting for your response. Thanks and warm regards

Superstitions in Muslim societies

You are doing it wrong. You spammed those links in dozens of article Talk pages, where they do not belong. Instead, you should post that thing once - in a WP page that seems appropriate to you, such as WP:FTN. --Hob Gadling (talk) 13:32, 6 September 2020 (UTC)[reply]

AfD

Hi after our exchange here I wanted to get in touch with you. I don't remember seeing your name in discussions at Articles for Deletion before, so I'm not sure how familiar you are with its procedures. Basically it goes like this - if you see an article on a topic you think is not notable, you do a ton of work searching for sources, and if nothing useful turns up, you nominate it at AFD and set out a case for why the topic does not belong on Wikipedia. There are borderline cases where the nominator is not certain and is asking the community for consensus. Nominating articles without doing this research, without clearly stating a rationale for deletion, and nominating them while another discussion is going on about the article elsewhere, is not going to win you any friends and may be considered disruptive. It takes a lot of work to nominate an article and if you see something you think ought to be deleted in future, please feel free to ask me for help. All the best Mccapra (talk) 11:02, 7 September 2020 (UTC)[reply]

Thanks for your guidance. I was particularly concerned with statement "...Since there's no clear connection between superstition and particular religions, the current article seem to be a fake topic with a PoV to advance (or is easily taken for one, whatever the intent was)...." I did not and do not know how to co-related that with notability issues and AfD rules. That part of the statement made me to seek AfD community feed back. Thanks Bookku (talk) 12:07, 7 September 2020 (UTC)[reply]

Why?

I have no idea why I received this notification from you. Best as I can tell, I was never involved with it. Could you please explain this? Paradoctor (talk) 14:33, 7 September 2020 (UTC)[reply]

Hello greetings, In brief to seek inputs from wider audience. Since editors to Superstition in Judaism were limited I selected few from history of Template:Superstition (Where I found you had edited template) to include users with unknown or limited interest and few from Talk:Superstition in neutral fashion (I included even those were opposed to superstition related article and were deletionist and also those who supported superstition related articles or did some edit.
If one selects people having high interest then also is objectionable for not being neutral enough. If one cares for neutrality and includes users with limited interest then like you they can get angry.
I regret if it inconvenienced you. Best wishes Bookku (talk) 14:51, 7 September 2020 (UTC)[reply]
This is called WP:CANVASSING. Stop it. Paradoctor (talk) 16:54, 7 September 2020 (UTC)[reply]

Copying within Wikipedia

Thanks for identifying the source of the material in your edit.

This type of edit does get picked up by Copy Patrol and a good edit summary helps to make sure we don't accidentally revert it. However, for future use, would you note the best practices wording as outlined at Wikipedia:Copying_within_Wikipedia? In particular, adding the phrase "see that page's history for attribution" helps ensure that proper attribution is preserved.

I've noticed that this guideline is not very well known, even among editors with tens of thousands of edits, so it isn't surprising that I point this out to some veteran editors, but there are some t's that you need to be crossed.S Philbrick(Talk) 12:18, 23 October 2020 (UTC)[reply]

"Enforced disappearance of Mushtaq Mahar" listed at Redirects for discussion

A discussion is taking place to address the redirect Enforced disappearance of Mushtaq Mahar.

USaamo (t@lk) 16:02, 24 October 2020 (UTC)[reply]

  • Hi Bookku, hope you would be fine. I wanted to get back to you regarding this redirect's discussion but got busy with studies as educational institutions were reopened for sometime in the country but discussion got closed before that. From past couple of weeks I wanted to clarify myself about what you complained in that discussion over pointing you as Indian editor and presuming antecedents on your part and phishing to compromise your privacy. So let me be straight, it was not even directed towards you. I just said it in general since most of the editors editing those articles then were seemingly Indians and their tone was not encyclopedic and NPOV was disregarded and articles were burdened. Sindh Police article afterwards was cleaned by many editors and even after your last edit on it, some editors further cleaned, copyedited and removed unsourced things. So I actually was pointing towards those editors who burdened that article unfairly and it was not at all specfically directed towards you as you assumed on your own. I just asserted on the point in that discussion about the redirect that it is not the actual event to where it is redirected. This was just the part of a bigger picture which happened at Mazar-e-Quaid. Moreover it was too early and we should wait for details to come after which it could be updated. There was an inquiry and its report came which clarified the picture as per which it could be updated in a better way. And by the way in the same discussion you too not one time but many times pointed me out and labeled me as supporter of Pakistani deep state, promoting Armed Forces' narrative, wisher of soft censors and giving impression that no one is credible, reliable or independent in Pakistan, which was extremely irresponsive on part of an editor like you but I gave it a pass.

Anyhow what happened has happened, I look forward to working with you in future regarding the articles relating to South Asia. Wishing you New Year 2021 in advance! Regards, USaamo (t@lk) 13:26, 22 December 2020 (UTC)[reply]

2)@ User:Adigabrek, I came across articles Umm walad and Qiyan too, Please do support these article expansion if you feel interested in the encyclopedic topics.

Islamic vs Muslim discussion

Bookku, you seem to be copying and pasting the exact same thing onto many different talk pages. Instead I suggest making proposals at each page that are specific to it.VR talk 03:11, 5 March 2021 (UTC)[reply]

@Vice regent: IMO any consensus building on such topics will be long drawn process so at the moment in first round of discussion, I wish people become aware that there is some thing to look into. It became common also because I started discussing from village pump side and will be posting to one or two more common discussion places. After taking note of first round of discussion in second or third round we can make specific proposal. Basically I am not in any hurry.

The interesting part is I don't know if I am too slow in making the case. I started taking notes long back when one of the article name was Muslim dietary laws and by the time I started discussing article name is already changed.

Thanks and warm regards

Black Sea climate and ecology

Hi Bookku I’m just looking at your new article and it shows up as having a high likelihood of being a copyright violation (see here). I suppose that the online materials that it closely resembles may themselves gave been copied from earlier Wikipedia articles, but I thought I’d better point it out in case there was anything you wanted to modify in the article text. All the best Mccapra (talk) 12:43, 19 March 2021 (UTC)[reply]

@Mccapra: Thanks for pointing out. Date of Slide share seems Published on Nov 26, 2010 and this Wikipedia article Black Sea edit dif on 25 Nov 2010 already shows to have the content. I will try to check status of Black Sea article history for 30th October 2010 too for better confirmation.
Thanks and warm regards Bookku (talk) 13:02, 19 March 2021 (UTC)[reply]
@Mccapra: I checked Wikipedia article Black Sea edit dif on 28 Octo 2010 as additional check and Wikipedia article Black Sea already seems to have the content. Still if you suggest I will make some more changes in content but I suppose since Wikipedia seems to had content already so we have enough breathing space to make the changes at our convenience.

No need I think that all seems clear. Mccapra (talk) 13:11, 19 March 2021 (UTC)[reply]

Speedy deletion nomination of Black Sea climate and ecology

Hello Bookku,

I wanted to let you know that I just tagged Black Sea climate and ecology for deletion, because it seems to be copied from another source, probably infringing copyright.

If you feel that the article shouldn't be deleted and want more time to rewrite it in your own words, you can contest this deletion, but don't remove the speedy deletion tag from the top.

You can leave a note on my talk page if you have questions. Thanks!

The content was copied from Black Sea. You can help patrollers by proper attribution when copying within Wikipedia in the future. In fact it's required by the terms of our license.— Diannaa (talk) 14:44, 20 March 2021 (UTC) @Diannaa: Thanks, most of Copy paste edits I do take care as you can see I mentioned the attribution in later three edits but some how missed in one unfortunately. Still I will make point to be more vigilant next time. Regards Bookku (talk) 14:53, 20 March 2021 (UTC)[reply]

It's unfortunate the patrollers missed that. In fact you mentioned it repeatedly :( — Diannaa (talk) 15:00, 20 March 2021 (UTC)[reply]
They probably missed it as it was not done on the first edit. I didn't spot it at first either.— Diannaa (talk) 15:05, 20 March 2021 (UTC)[reply]

Bookku, it looks like this draft will be finished quicker than other drafts you're working on. Maybe we should focus on this one for now? Is there anything you can advise me on for expansion in terms of the draft? Gender Roamer (|talk) 21:13, 14 April 2021 (UTC)[reply]

@Gender Roamer: I am traveling so some delays are likely from my side, but I would be very keen to work more on that topic too as suggested by you. Lately one user Banksboomer seem to working on similar subtopic Forced conversion of minority girls in Pakistan.

In any case I would work on the topics let them separate or merged either way.

Many thanks and warm regards

All right, and I see how merging might be the ideal thing to do once we can look at how everything has come together. Gender Roamer (talk) 20:31, 17 April 2021 (UTC)[reply]

Yes, merging is a good idea Banksboomer (talk) 07:04, 18 April 2021 (UTC)[reply]

Hi, Banksboomer. "Forced conversion of minority girls in Pakistan" is the bigger page right now. I'm assuming we'd merge it under "Forced conversion to Islam in Pakistan" because the latter is for the general topic. All right, so I have a concern. If we merge right now, the page would be mostly about girls. Gender Roamer (talk) 21:22, 18 April 2021 (UTC)[reply]
I looked at the Forced conversion to Islam in Pakistan page again. Is this mostly happening to girls? If that's how it is, then it's all right the page would be mostly about them. Gender Roamer (talk) 21:26, 18 April 2021 (UTC)[reply]

Honestly, with the class assignment tags placed on the discussion page, the effort to clean up this page may be optimized if we wait until the classes are done. Gender Roamer (talk) 22:31, 14 April 2021 (UTC)[reply]

Yes you are right. we can always come back later. Thanks for your inputs. and warm regards
