Regarding your revert
Hello,
Regarding this reversion, amongst which you added an edit summary "no, the lede is meant to provide a summary of the main points of the article,not mention every empire or state that ruled the territory."
Could you point me out any other empire or state that ruled all of Turkey for 200 years, or even close to it, had a considerable historical impact, and that's not listed in the lede?.. Especially as all other pre-Turkic history in some way, whether culturally or ethnicity-wise has been mentioned. - LouisAragon (talk) 16:50, 7 January 2016 (UTC)

Hellenisation page
Hi, I have notice that you have undone my revisions on the Hellenisation section on the Alexander the Great page, and when you undid th revision gave the reason POV pushing. However I must disagree as while you undid the revision you kept the sources, and it was I that added those courses to support what I had written. Thus, what is currently written is not supported by any of the sources, or any scholarship. Furthermore, I fail to see how I was pushing my point of view, I was entirely fair and was not trying to detract from any side, I was simply reflecting modern scholarship on the matter and thus was not pushing my point of view. Indeed what you have replaced my revision with is entirely inaccurate, again I can understand your concern that my edit was perhaps an instance of historical revisionism; however it is not. I was simply correcting the section due to the addition of the mount Meru bit, keeping the original sources which are in no way relevant even contradicting the point made about mount Meru. Indeed, on the issue of mount Meru that is traditional Hindu "cosmology" (as it was describing the universe, not the solar system) and was not accepted beyond explaining the metaphysical universe, in traditional Indian astronomy/astrology; however, the use of a heliocentric planetary model with elliptical orbits was favored until the arrival of the Ptolemaic model which proved very popular as the arithmetic was simpler and yielded equally accurate results with the relatively inaccurate data available at the time. I will refrain from making any more edits until we resolve this issue, please do contact me soon as i want to settle this amiably and with no further disagreements. Looking forward to hearing from you.Bodha2 (talk) 18:47, 7 January 2016 (UTC)

Formal mediation has been requested
The Mediation Committee has received a request for formal mediation of the dispute relating to "Vladimir Putin". As an editor concerned in this dispute, you are invited to participate in the mediation. Mediation is a voluntary process which resolves a dispute over article content by facilitation, consensus-building, and compromise among the involved editors. After reviewing the request page, the formal mediation policy, and the guide to formal mediation, please indicate in the "party agreement" section whether you agree to participate. Because requests must be responded to by the Mediation Committee within seven days, please respond to the request by 11 March 2016.
Discussion relating to the mediation request is welcome at the case talk page. Thank you.

Request
In the article Hijab by country there are constant attempts by registered users and IP users (whom I suspect could be duplicate accounts of one person) to show the illegal entity of "Northern Cyprus" as a separate and legitimate country, and obviously in many other articles, without much ado. I revert it, but they change it back, even including my amended version that show the Turkish Cypriots as a distinct society but as a subsection under the legitimate section of Cyprus. Could you do something about these users and alert them?
Thank you. SednaXV (talk) 08:27, 21 March 2016 (UTC)

Reverting
Hi, this is Woodgridge. Yesterday, you reverted my sourced edit with the edit summary "rv alexyflemming sock" without raising your claim in WP whereas WP has mechanisms for such accusations to be recorded and processed. It would be wise/ethical to introduce the claims with proofs before accusing the others.Woodgridge (talk) 17:06, 30 March 2016 (UTC)

Hi. Thank you for your recent edits. Wikipedia appreciates your help. We noticed though that when you edited Greek language, you added a link pointing to the disambiguation page Antiquity (check to confirm | fix with Dab solver). Such links are almost always unintended, since a disambiguation page is merely a list of "Did you mean..." article titles. Read the FAQ • Join us at the DPL WikiProject.

Alexander
Hey Athenean, regarding Alexander the Great, I wanted to just keep it at India myself initially when I reverted those two users, but after realizing that that part is often changed by "certain" IP's/SPA accounts who seem overly concerned regarding how many square inches Alexander had conquered of what is nowadays their country, I tried to make it more precise. This indeed made it way too complicated however as you correctly told. "The more you have the more complicated life gets", as we say, haha. Anyway, to put it short, I just wanted to say that I changed it in good faith in order to prevent more SPA IP hoppers/socks/and what-not being lured to it. That's all. I would never have changed it if it didn't attract that much disruption. That's all :-) Bests and take care - LouisAragon (talk) 21:26, 7 June 2016 (UTC)

Imbros.
Hi, I would like to ask why content with no reliable (invalid links and in Greek Language) sources should still be on Imbos' page? And why should content with sources which are not even in English still be on an English Wikipedia page? In this case Imbos, Please remove the greek sources from the page and move them to the Greek wikipedia page. DavidThomson1997 (talk) 22:58, 30 June 2016 (UTC)
Greek inhabitation
Indeed, but I am referring to inhabited by *humans* not human ancestors (which does indeed go much farther back. Perhaps specification is in order, but I figured that would be quickly assumed.
- Europe, including Greece, has been inhabited by anatomically modern humans for the last 40k or so years. Human beings did not evolve in the 7th century BC. Athenean (talk) 03:08, 20 July 2016 (UTC)

On the Gangaridai and Alexander the Great articles, this Bangladeshi nationalist (User Tiger Hafiz) always changes the historical articles to modern Bangladesh, instead of historical Bengal.

Request for mediation accepted
The request for formal mediation of the dispute concerning Expulsion of Cham Albanians, in which you were listed as a party, has been accepted by the Mediation Committee. The case will be assigned to an active mediator within two weeks, and mediation proceedings should begin shortly thereafter. Proceedings will begin at the case information page, Wikipedia:Requests for mediation/Expulsion of Cham Albanians, so please add this to your watchlist. Formal mediation is governed by the Mediation Committee and its Policy. The Policy, and especially the first two sections of the "Mediation" section, should be read if you have never participated in formal mediation. For a short guide to accepted cases, see the "Accepted requests" section of the Guide to formal mediation. You may also want to familiarise yourself with the internal Procedures of the Committee.
As mediation proceedings begin, be aware that formal mediation can only be successful if every participant approaches discussion in a professional and civil way, and is completely prepared to compromise. Please contact the Committee if anything is unclear.

Map
No dude, explanation was in the map change summary. I will add the reports I used to the talk page this evening. It's not a rule as far as I can see that only PEW reports can be used.
If you believe that Bulgaria has 7% Muslim population when 2001 census has no 'undeclared' option and has almost 13% Muslim population, and in 2011 census number of Turks in Bulgaria are almost same but Muslim population is 7% and undeclared is 20%. Then it's not healthy to use the information as 7%. Got what I mean right? Berkaysnklf (talk 10:58, 10 October 2016 (UTC)
Your recent editing history at Ottoman Empire shows that you are currently engaged in an edit war. To resolve the content dispute, please do not revert or change the edits of others when you are reverted. Instead of reverting, please use the article's talk page to work toward making a version that represents consensus among editors. The best practice at this stage is to discuss, not edit-war. See BRD for how this is done. If discussions reach an impasse, you can then post a request for help at a relevant noticeboard or seek dispute resolution. In some cases, you may wish to request temporary page protection.
Being involved in an edit war can result in your being blocked from editing—especially if you violate the three-revert rule, which states that an editor must not perform more than three reverts on a single page within a 24-hour period. Undoing another editor's work—whether in whole or in part, whether involving the same or different material each time—counts as a revert. Also keep in mind that while violating the three-revert rule often leads to a block, you can still be blocked for edit warring—even if you don't violate the three-revert rule—should your behavior indicate that you intend to continue reverting repeatedly.--Gündoğdu (talk) 09:15, 11 October 2016 (UTC)
