White Russia can be still considered as a correct term for Belarus since it is still used in many languages. In the last decades Belarus has also underwent many name changes for its country. E.g. Byelorussian soviet republic. White-Russian territory before Russian revolution.

The article however is not completely about the Belarus republic it is about the origin of the name of White Russia. There is evidence that the term White Russia had been used for the Grand Duchy of Moscow once, and for Novgorod. This information may not be deleted.

Congratulations from STiki!

Rollback granted

Hi Kaobear. After reviewing your request for "rollbacker", I have enabled rollback on your account. Keep in mind these things when going to use rollback:

  • Getting rollback is no more momentous than installing Twinkle.
  • Rollback should be used to revert clear cases of vandalism only, and not good faith edits.
  • Rollback should never be used to edit war.
  • If abused, rollback rights can be revoked.
  • Use common sense.

If you no longer want rollback, contact me and I'll remove it. Also, for some more information on how to use rollback, see Wikipedia:New admin school/Rollback (even though you're not an admin). I'm sure you'll do great with rollback, but feel free to leave me a message on my talk page if you run into troubles or have any questions about appropriate/inappropriate use of rollback. Thank you for helping to reduce vandalism. Happy editing! Widr (talk) 20:30, 19 June 2016 (UTC)[reply]

JUNE 2016

Please don't use templates when making posts to my talk page. I take it as a personal insult if someone can't be bothered to use their own words.

I reverted your reverting Iran–Iraq_War, you were acting like a robot. I took the time to explain my edit on the talk page. If you have an issue that would be a good place to discuss it.

24.246.23.7 (talk) 22:05, 19 June 2016 (UTC)[reply]

Again you did it. Please use the talk page and don't start an edit war.

Roman Polanski on Harvey Weinstein page

The reference to Roman Polanski on the page says he had "unlawful sexual intercourse" with a 13 year old. I changed this to rape because under US law (where the crime took place), sex with a minor is by definition rape.

You changed it back because you felt that this is "not constructive", but I personally believe it is unconstructive to sugarcoat the fact that was legally rape. It is also potentially traumatic to survivors of sex crimes to see the seriousness of rape played down in this manner.

Accidental Edit

Hi there! It looks like my kiddo got hold of my phone. I certainly didn't mean to edit someone's page with a bunch of gibberish. Thanks for fixing it! — Preceding unsigned comment added by 72.33.2.212 (talk) 19:41, 21 June 2016 (UTC)[reply]

I attend this school. I'm quite sure I know what to change on their Wikipedia page, since I know the facts of that school and their policies. They accept people who are legally female and it would be wrong to just put girls under the GENDER subheading, considering gender is merely something that is your identity and nothing to do with your chromosomes or biological characteristics. I'm not a girl, and I go to that school. I added myself to the category of people who attend. Thanks 94.11.166.222 (talk) 20:30, 21 June 2016 (UTC)Jack Furness.[reply]

Lloyd Babb revert


Hello Kaobear, thanks for the notification of your revert. I do have a few questions:

1. Why do you claim that my contribution "did not appear constructive"?

2. Involvement in the high profile criminal case that I outlined is perhaps the main reason why this individual may be considered notable. In Australia the media has actively reported this case over the last 5 years, as an indication Australia's premier television current affairs program recently devoted a one hour episode to this case. I suggest that Mr Babb's response to the case is controversial in the same way that the recent sentencing decision by Judge Aaron Persky is controversial. The Wikipedia page for Judge Persky contains substantial reference to the controversy over his recent sentencing decisions: §https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Aaron_Persky

3. You may have noticed that I included sources, all of the information that I published was factual and on the public record. I did not present any personal opinion. Do you believe that the contribution is in breach of Biography of a Living Person protocol, and if so how?

4. You suggested that I use the Sandbox. I understand that is a place to practice with layout and Wiki mark up. I would appreciate it if you could identify specific formatting issues with my contribution?

5. I appreciate that the content may be better placed as a subheading under an existing section, this would be consistent with the way the Judge Aaron Persky page is set out. Would you support the restitution of the content as part of an existing category?

6. You reverted my contribution after only 26 minutes. Did you receive a notification? Are you a moderator or previous editor of the Lloyd Babb page, or do you have some other interest? How did you know about my contribution so fast?

7. I thought the protocol was to discuss issues in the article's Talk page, rather than deleting content. If you still don't accept that the content is appropriate, I am happy to initiate a discussion on the Talk page? As I suspect this is not a highly visited article, is there a way to alert other editors who may be interested in discussing the appropriateness of the contribution?

Thanks in anticipation of your response.RussHawk (talk) 18:41, 22 June 2016 (UTC)[reply]

Hello Kaobear, thanks for acknowledging the mistake and restoring the text. I agree that the writing could be more polished, I was aiming initially to create a summary of the issue from the various and lengthy sources. I will revise it after I have had a break, of course it would be great if other editors also make improvements. I have previously been dragged over the Wikipedia coals (in a not entirely just manner) for edits to a biography of a living person, so I apologise if my response was overly defensive. Presumably you are on the oath towards becoming an administrator, I hope you will exercise that power fairly.
Thanks, RussHawk (talk) 19:14, 22 June 2016 (UTC)[reply]
