Declaration of Independence by Kosovo

@Klačko: Share your thoughts here if you are looking forward to remove content. Refrain from editing the Article.--InNeed95 (talk) 11:57, 16 October 2021 (UTC)[reply]

Already explained in the edit. Insisting on putting adjective in sentence which is crystal clear and understandable and which, formulated as that, has been in the article for a long time before your edits, is not a good faith edit. That's it, not really needed to open discussion in the TP about one word (adjective) which is certainly redundant in that particular sentence. As for your malicious insinuation about me being sock of some other user, please check when I was registered and whole of my history (contributions) on wikipedia. Regards, Klačko (talk) 12:20, 16 October 2021 (UTC)[reply]

@Klačko:Its funny that you are accusing me of "Edit Warring", while you were the one removing content without a concensus. I asked you to use the TP to discuss it. You should not use the Revert option to tell us about your Viewpoint. Use the TP for that, so we can find a concensus on the issue.

Now to your comment. Representitives of the Kosovan Assembly declared independence. Thats the sentence you want to have. The Assembly can declare everything. It does not specifically tell about the independence of the whole territory of Kosovo. Just "declared independence". They may have declared independence from the serbian Train Network or the Energy Block and many more. Else it might be confusing to people that are not familiar to the topic.<--- Thats the point. Leaving the "Kosovan independence" in the sentence, tells the reader about what actually happened (Not my edit as you claimed. The adjective has been there for a long time prior). Only because you are familar with the event, and you yourself know which independence is meant, doesnt mean everybody shares the same familiarity with it.

There is a need to start a TP discussion, because there is a dispute. Even if it is only one word, it is still a dispute, which has to be solved thru the TP. If you disagree with it and still continue to Edit the Article, you will be counted as a Edit-Warrior and Vandaliser.

Me, claiming you, to be a sock is a reasonable claim. Because not long ago, another User (Sock-User) did the same edit. Claiming to be innocent, only because your account has some age to it, doesnt mean you arent a sock. A person can maintain several accounts.

So as I mentioned above, please refrain from editing the Article, until we have found a concensus. Best Regards, --InNeed95 (talk) 17:26, 16 October 2021 (UTC)[reply]

Consensus obviously has been there for a very long time since before your edit the version of sentence without adjective "Kosovan" was there for years and nobody didnt put adjective "Kosovan" because it is redundant. Even now, there is obviously a consensus about version without adjective "Kosovan" as there are multiple users who are trying to revert to that version and you are THE ONLY ONE insisting on putting "Kosovan" in a sentence.

And please give me a break with that argument that the Assembly could declare independence from Serbian train network or distribution system, I mean you can do better than that... It is obvious what kind of declaration of independence was that for everybody reading that sentence because in the continuation of that same sentence it goes that "Serbia claim it as part of its own sovereign territory". Moreover, issue of separation from train network or energy distribution system would certainly not be of that importance to be in introductory section.

PS please cut the crap about reaching consensus before removing content. Its an old wiki trick game when someone doesnt like the change then calls on reaching consensus on TP. I ve been active here on Wikipedia for more than a decade now, so find someone else selling those tricks and please refrain from posting on my page those warnings because it looks silly especially since you are not administrator on this thing.

Klačko (talk) 13:36, 18 October 2021 (UTC)[reply]

@Klačko: The Word has been there for years. Not specifically "Kosovan", but the Word "Kosovo". Which basically is the same, only that Kosovo is a subject and Kosovan the Adjective. This has been changed a roughly month ago. You have removed the word with no concensus. Stop Edit-Warring on the Article without proper explainations and prove for your claims!

It is a fact, that they could have delcared anything. Unfamiliar readers dont know what is meant. You as a familiar one know. Its just confusing if its not shown.

You dont have to be a Administrator to Warn people. / Even though you have created your account on Wiki a long time ago, you still seem to be unfamiliar with the process of solving a Dispute (As shown by your childish and non cooperation on Serbia). Refrain from Editing the Article until a concesus has been found!--InNeed95 (talk) 16:32, 18 October 2021 (UTC)[reply]

@Theonewithreason: There is a discussion going on here. Feel free to join. Refrain from editing the Article without a concensus. Best Regards, --InNeed95 (talk) 23:29, 18 November 2021 (UTC)[reply]
