Following this finding of fact in the arbitration case (unrelated to me) I have stopped all administrator activity in the areas I edit — everything related to the countries of the former Soviet Union, to rail transport, and to the Olympics. I may occasionally make fully uncontroversial actions, such as blocks for and protections against obvious vandalism and obvious BLP violations.

Hi Ymblanter. Hope you're well. I wanted to make some changes to the Bosco Soid page but noticed that you have put it on semi-protected. Could you please lower the protection on the article? Thanks in advance.

Donguz Formation

Hi Ymblanter! Donguz Formation was recently created and could use a couple of edits so it doesn't get speedy deleted. Do you have time to look at some Russian sources? --Tobias1984 (talk) 07:13, 27 May 2013 (UTC)

I will have a look, but this is clearly not speedy deletion material. Added to the watchlist just in case.--Ymblanter (talk) 07:17, 27 May 2013 (UTC)

Japan

Hi Ymblanter, in case you want to help: The Historic Sites of Japan need to be converted to use {{NHS Japan header}} and {{NHS Japan row}}. For now only the national part. I did a couple as examples. Multichill (talk) 15:41, 25 August 2013 (UTC)

Thanks, I will have a look.--Ymblanter (talk) 16:08, 25 August 2013 (UTC)

Hello; Is it possible to do any conversion by ?bot? as seems to have been done for these Chinese ones? The format of the Japanese lists is intended to be internally similar, Maculosae tegmine lyncis (talk) 11:39, 26 August 2013 (UTC)

I guess this is more a question to @Multichill: than to me, but I guess if it were he would do the conversion himself without asking me. Let us wait what he answers. If the conversion is not possible, I volunteer to do at least some of the manual conversion (one-two lists per day).--Ymblanter (talk) 11:50, 26 August 2013 (UTC)

I tried converting with a bot, but didn't manage to do it without too much mess so I abandoned that. Multichill (talk) 16:51, 26 August 2013 (UTC)

Cleaning up the Belarus geographical mess

I'm getting unstuck in trying to compile a table of terminology for the Belarus geographical naming conventions. There appears to be a flood of new articles and stubs recently and it appears that English Wikipedia is now leading the way with transliteration/transcription norms (which, as we know, simply isn't Wikipedia's role). As the contributors don't seem to know what to do other than follow the current directives, we're ending up with orphaned pages and broken links absolutely everywhere.

My thoughts are to follow the Belarusian government standards for the English speaking world (which DON'T involve the irritating version of what is essentially Latinka), i.e. as laid out per this map and other official sites. What's good enough for the Belarus government should be good enough for us.

You can check the sad beginnings in my sandbox. Any constructive input from sensible Wikipedians would be appreciated.

I've left this message on Ezhiki and TaalVerbeteraar's pages as well. Cheers! --Iryna Harpy (talk) 04:54, 28 October 2013 (UTC)

The beginning seems reasonable, thank you.--Ymblanter (talk) 17:53, 28 October 2013 (UTC)

Greetings. Any chance you could proof/source improve my Russian translation of the history and expand it further?♦ Dr. Blofeld 15:29, 20 September 2014 (UTC)

Draft:Nikolay Antipov

Hi Ymblanter. Draft:Nikolay Antipov was on the verge of G13 deletion, but the man is obviously notable. It looks like a machine translation of ru:Антипов, Николай Кириллович. I have added a few English language book citations, would copy-editing be an easy task for you? Thanks, Sam Sailor 18:28, 14 August 2018 (UTC)

Thank you for reminding me, I will be slowly working on the draft.--Ymblanter (talk) 18:34, 14 August 2018 (UTC)

Great, thank you. Sam Sailor 18:46, 14 August 2018 (UTC)

Global renamer

Would you consider applying? We could use another active Russian speaker. Something we’ve been working on is getting people not to handle as many requests from languages they aren’t familiar with and this has lead to a small backlog from some wikis. I know you aren’t active on ru.wikipedia now, but being able to read the requests on meta and figure out if it’s within policy would be incredibly helpful. TonyBallioni (talk) 15:17, 23 February 2019 (UTC)

@TonyBallioni:, do you have any idea how much time investmet this could be? I am operating close to the upper level limit of my abilities, and if it is enough to check some page once per day and react to pings, I could still do it, but continuously monitoring a page would probably be too much.--Ymblanter (talk) 16:06, 23 February 2019 (UTC)

I think that’d be the most, and checking once every few days would even be helpful. It’s a volunteer project and getting more volunteers from different language groups is always a plus. TonyBallioni (talk) 16:15, 23 February 2019 (UTC)

Thanks, I will have a look.--Ymblanter (talk) 16:37, 23 February 2019 (UTC)

Contest

Hi. I was actually thinking of organising a contest to get my old stubs expanded. Basically what I did in the early days on here was to identify notable missing articles, simply identifying them and getting them up, thinking in the long term at what is best. The problem is that a lot are really off the anglospere radar and don't get expanded but really should have decent content even if short. The idea that I mass created copyvio articles amuses me, I doubt there's more than a few dozen out of 100,000. I might see if I can get a hotlist of stubs created and run a contest to see who can expand the most. Alternatively I can request deleting them all which would mostly be negative as most can be fleshed out..♦ Dr. Blofeld 12:11, 16 January 2020 (UTC)

The list is at the CCI investigation page(s). No, I do not think you should delete them, and indeed most of them (I do not know whether most is 90%, 99% or 99.9999%) do not contain any copyvio. But having them expanded would be nice. For Russian districts, I am going through them anyway, and it still could take years, but if I am still alive I will do them. I sometimes write on more exotic topics, but for example Chinese stubs typically require some understanding of Chinese sources for their expansion, and attention could be brought to them it would be great.--Ymblanter (talk) 12:17, 16 January 2020 (UTC)

The task of building this encyclopedia is just so gigantic isn't it? I feel guilty in seeing so many short stubs but really should have been created with much more content but it was all done with the mindset of trying to make this encyclopedia have coverage of everywhere on the planet and really try to tackle systematic bias. I did a lot of good, a lot of them have been expanded but there's a worrying number untouched in ten years. Nobody is developing them. You know Czech and Turkish villages, German rivers etc, articles we should have but nobody is editing. We need something to get them improved. There's probablt a lot of African villages which should probably be redirected into a list, some of those villages in Burkina Faso and Benin etc are still unlikely to have anything online within the next ten years, though on a county or municipal level it seems to be gradually improving in some areas as they come online.♦ Dr. Blofeld 15:56, 16 January 2020 (UTC)

Yes, this is an evergreen question what should be redirected and what should have separate articles. This is of course diffisult but I would say administrative divisions of levels 1-2-3 are probably fine, and reasonably big settlements (say above 10K) should be fine as well. For the rest, I would say we either have easily available sources or not. Once I tried to expand an article on a Czech village and could not find any information above the standard one which was already in the article. On the other hand, a Czech speaker would know what to search for and might be more successfull. African villages are probably hopeless for the time being unless there are very clear sources covering them. I created some time ago an article on a new province of Zambia (first level administrative division), English is an official language of Zambia, and it was still difficult to find any reasonable information.--Ymblanter (talk) 16:11, 16 January 2020 (UTC)

I mean look at Madjoari Department (not mine). Even the bigger province is a short stub Kompienga Province. If we can't even get that right it's useless worrying about hundreds of localities within them. If all we have is a population figure I think we should redirect them all into lists by district/province like a gazetteer until there is sufficient info. I'm more embarrassed at seeing how many stubs I created which are still empty than worrying at people finding vios!♦ Dr. Blofeld 18:22, 16 January 2020 (UTC)

When I was writing about districts of Mozambique, it was easier for me that articles already existed, templates were there, and I just needed to add info from my sources. I suspect Burkina Faso is similar, and I speak French. Villages could be a completely different story whatsoever.--Ymblanter (talk) 18:34, 16 January 2020 (UTC)

Ulaankhus

Hi, can you find anything on this in Russian or find a way to translate Mongolian, I tried to destub it but struggled with the web sources I found. Russian wiki has some decent info on it.♦ Dr. Blofeld 13:37, 30 January 2020 (UTC)

Yes, I will have a look. --Ymblanter (talk) 13:47, 30 January 2020 (UTC)

Thanks, I found a source for the population at here 8010, looks like there's some other facts in there in the tables. I remember about 12 years back the sums were all half liners and there was no info on the web at all about them!♦ Dr. Blofeld 14:02, 30 January 2020 (UTC)

Cheers. It would make a massive difference to the encyclopedia wouldn't it if we could get every article on localities up to that sort of minimum quality. Most of the districts are still one liners.♦ Dr. Blofeld 10:51, 31 January 2020 (UTC)

Yes, and this is what I am systematically doing with Russia (see e.g. Firovsky District as a random example). Concerning Ulaankhus, it also borders with China (and actually its borders with Russia and China are separated), but yesterday I could not figure out how to write this properly. The article I found also contains some information on the geography (mainly relief), I will see whether there is something useful to add to the article.--Ymblanter (talk) 10:54, 31 January 2020 (UTC)

Yes, I was just looking at that, that narrow strip to the southwest, Xinjiang I think. You and Ezhiki have done a terrific job with Russia, it's massive!! ♦ Dr. Blofeld 10:59, 31 January 2020 (UTC)

This is definitely Xinjiang, but to add it in the list, we need to know which Mongolian sums this border separates, and I could not figure this out yesterday. Thanks for compliments for Russia, Ezhiki is unfortunately inactive but I am still around. There is still plenty of work to do there.--Ymblanter (talk) 11:03, 31 January 2020 (UTC)

Firovsky District is several times more than adequate, a lot of these stubs if they even had a paragraph of text like the lead it would make a big difference, something which actually looks like something you'd see in an encyclopedia, not a crappy online database. "Life is what you make it" they say, well "The encyclopedia is what you make it" rings true too! ♦ Dr. Blofeld 11:07, 31 January 2020 (UTC)

I added a translation from Russian wiki for Altai, Bayan-Ölgii but I couldn't access the sources. Can you see if you can source it. If not I've just remove it.♦ Dr. Blofeld 12:58, 31 January 2020 (UTC)

I think I tried to get the sources from the Russian wikipedia yesterday and one was off-line and another one was archived but not particularly reliable. I will have one more look in the evening.--Ymblanter (talk) 14:07, 31 January 2020 (UTC)

There is only one Russian source there, [1], which has quite a lot of info about the aimak (though the reliability is questionable, but it should be ok at the end), but very little specifically about the sum.--Ymblanter (talk) 18:00, 1 February 2020 (UTC)

Don't worry about it. I started Kikhchik, Russian wiki has two settlements of the same name, one a village which existed nearby long before that was set up. I think it would be best to have one article covering them both but you might disagree. Looking in Google Books the river seems the most notable. It's transwikied and if possible the source need checking and verifying. Won't keep bothering you as I know you're busy but you might want to look into it.♦ Dr. Blofeld 16:08, 1 February 2020 (UTC)

Subdistricts of Afghanistan

Hi, can you find a list of subdistricts of Afghanistan? I can't seem to find any. Of course even the districts mostly need expanding and researching but it would still be good if there was a list somewhere.† Encyclopædius 14:12, 30 April 2020 (UTC)

Mmm Kot-e Ashro looks like it is actually the town of Jalrez itself now. Falling Rain isn't reliable but is usually right on coordinates and looking on google maps it says it's Jalrez now. This source though says Kot used to be the district capital until taken by the Taliban. Odd. What do you think?† Encyclopædius 15:02, 30 April 2020 (UTC)

Usually these things come out if the census, but then one of course needs to be able to read Pashto, and also I am not sure there was a census in the last 50 years. Any other statistical info would be good as well.--Ymblanter (talk) 15:31, 30 April 2020 (UTC)

I can't find the coordinates for Zaiwalat either. It's an educated guess for now but not sure.† Encyclopædius 15:57, 30 April 2020 (UTC)

Found it I think.† Encyclopædius 16:58, 30 April 2020 (UTC)

Sorry, I spent some time searching, I can not find the list of subdistricts. Will try again tomorrow.--Ymblanter (talk) 17:41, 30 April 2020 (UTC)

This one says that the subdistricts were eliminated by Taliban in 1996 and are not in use anymore.--Ymblanter (talk) 18:10, 30 April 2020 (UTC)

Mass renaming of Southeast Asia districts

Per Wikipedia talk:WikiProject Southeast Asia#Districts, I've prepared lists of over a thousand moves to be done. Does the bot that handles category moves also take requests for article moves? Can you point me at a process? Dicklyon (talk) 22:59, 9 January 2022 (UTC)

No, we can not use the same process for page moves. I do not know to be honest, may be the first place to ask would be Wikipedia:Village pump (technical), and they hopefully can point you out a good direction.--Ymblanter (talk) 06:04, 10 January 2022 (UTC)

Thanks, I'll ask around. Dicklyon (talk) 15:29, 10 January 2022 (UTC)

Mainstream history does not accept this.--Ymblanter (talk) 20:37, 13 January 2022 (UTC)

I want that we understand eachother. In the Notes section it currently says "Legendarily founded by Gregory the Illuminator in the"

The source [12], if you open page 34 of that PDF, it says "According to Armenian tradition such a location was chosen because saint Thaddeus built the earliest church-parts of which are still believed to be in place as the base of the old section--upon the ruins of the temple. He was martyred in 66 AD by the order of Armenia's King Sanatrouk."

You say that it was "clearly" not founded in 66 AD, which is just your personal opinion.

 UserXpetVarpet (talk) 21:29, 13 January 2022 (UTC)

No, it is not my personal opinion, it it an opinion of the mainstream academic research. The opinion that it was founded in 66 is a legend. Legend have no room on that page. I do not think we are going to understand each other.--Ymblanter (talk) 21:32, 13 January 2022 (UTC)

It would be nice if you give a source of the academic research.

If legend have no room on that page than you should also remove "Legendarily founded by Gregory the Illuminator in the". UserXpetVarpet (talk) 21:40, 13 January 2022 (UTC)

I removed this. For the rest, go to the talk page of the article please.--Ymblanter (talk) 21:43, 13 January 2022 (UTC)

Correcting bad page moves

Hello, Ymblanter,

When you are correcting a bad page move, it helps if you leave a redirect. When a bad page move happens, bots change all of the redirects to point to the new location. If you leave a redirect when you correct these moves, then the bots can correct a second time and point the existing redirects back to the original, correct location. But if there is no redirect left after you move a page, then that leaves broken redirects which are then deleted by the bots unless an editor or admin intervenes and corrects each one. Of course, if you check "What links here" and the page has no redirects pointing to it, then all of this is unnecessary. But you might check and see if there are redirects when deciding whether or not to leave a redirect after a page move. Thank you! Liz ^{Read! Talk!} 22:05, 14 January 2022 (UTC)

I usually do keep redirects, but today I was undoing really bad moves by a sock, when one entity was moved to a different entity. Redirects would not be useful here, but you are right, I should have checked backlinks as I usually do.--Ymblanter (talk) 22:08, 14 January 2022 (UTC)

I also see that currently we do not have broken redirects, so that someone (probably you) already fixed them.--Ymblanter (talk) 22:10, 14 January 2022 (UTC)

Anything actionable here?

Hi Ymblanter,

I'd like your opinion as to whether Bloodofox has done anything actionable in this thread. Particularly in these edits with comments like:

• What's notable about this situation on this page is the aggression coming from you in particular about it [2]
• who knows how many hours I've wasted on ridiculous talk page blather from ideology-motivated editors [3]
• it's pretty clear to me (and it would seem a couple of editors who have messaged me) that you're on a mission here, and that you appear to be far less interested in improving the article than you are in making a point by way of doing things like emphasizing challenges to the term over its defenders [4]
• the fact that this particular matter is so aggressively highlighted in the lead over all else—your preference—is a big read flag. [5]
• Bold and italicize all you like, [https://en.wikipedia.org/w/index.php?title=Germanic_peoples&type=revision&diff=1065490805&oldid=1065489975 edits like this make clear your preference to emphasize what appears to be your preferred side of the "anti-Germanic" aspect of the controversy]. As you know, before my edits, readers immediately heard aspects of the argument of the "anti-Germanic" wing but they needed to actually go digging into the body to hear from the rest of the field. We see obfuscating behavior like this on fringe articles all the time. Leads are summaries of the article's contents (WP:LEAD), not a place to promote a preferred stance over all else (WP:Balance, WP:NPOV). We can discuss the appropriateness of some, sure, that's reasonable, but behavior like that is unacceptable. [6]
• It's something we see again and again at, for example, fringe articles when ideological editors—often adherents with single purpose accounts—aim to present material their preferred way. [7]

Besides these comments verging on personal attacks and aspersions, there's also a general refusal to provide sources for their assertions. For context, he's behaved in similar ways in the past, see this discussion from 2019. Also for further context this personal attack from last year Lol, this guy ranting about linguists and going to lengths to try to insert Goffart into every nook and cranny of this article while excluding philologists, the latter producing the vast majority of scholarship in this field. What a bizarre thing to see. here Similar things can also be found in that archive.

Thank you for your time!--Ermenrich (talk) 20:33, 19 January 2022 (UTC)

(I originally posted about this at User talk:Doug Weller#Anything actionable here?, however Doug is suffering from health problems and was unable to look into it).--Ermenrich (talk) 13:47, 21 January 2022 (UTC)

This is not really my field of expertise, but I see that the user failed to convince literally anyone in that thread. They are understandably frustrated, but I think the easiest is to let it go. If they start inserting their position unilaterally to the article, it would be a different story.--Ymblanter (talk) 13:59, 21 January 2022 (UTC)

I have sent you a note about a page you reviewed

Hello, Ymblanter

Thank you for creating Umedpur Union.

User:Hughesdarren, while examining this page as a part of our page curation process, had the following comments:

Hi Ymblanter, I was going to review several of these articles but they all seemed to contain errors compared to the Banlapedia source. For this one; According to the Banglapedia reference to area is 8002 acre which is equivalent to 32.38 km2 not 87.26 km2 as stated in the article. Is there an error or am I missing something here? What do you think?

To reply, leave a comment here and begin it with {{Re|Hughesdarren}}. Please remember to sign your reply with ~~~~ .

Hughesdarren (talk) 09:30, 22 January 2022 (UTC)

I did not create this article but I have see the talk page comment. Possibly mass-creation with corresponding errors.--Ymblanter (talk) 09:48, 22 January 2022 (UTC)

I know you didn't create these articles, my original message to you was automated from the page review. I have already left messages on the creators talk page. Do you think it worth putting this series of articles into draft or just keep messaging every time one pops up? I'm after some guidance as to what you think would be the best response at this point. Regards and thanks for all your efforts in reviewing. Hughesdarren (talk) 09:57, 22 January 2022 (UTC)

The article is clearly notable, so I do not see any benefit of putting it to the draft. If we do not have reliable numbers for the area, it must be deleted. If we do have numbers for the ares, they need to be added to the article. If this is a systemic problem of the creator, which they refuse to address, some measures need to be taken against the creator.--Ymblanter (talk) 10:06, 22 January 2022 (UTC)

Alina Anisimova

Hi @Ymblanter: How are you? You mentioned that you could possibly find sources for the Alina Anisimova article, when I left a message at Wir. I wonder if you are up for that doing that, at some point. On researching the article, I recently found that she has left the Kyrgyz girls school/Kyrgyz space project, sometime in mid 2019, and went to work at Kloop, the sponsoring organisation. I think it is probably more than borderline notable at the moment. She was named by the BBC 100 Women thing, and now she is not part of the school, i'm not absolutely sure. If you can find anything else on her, it would be ideal. Any help is appreciated. scope_creep^Talk 14:12, 22 January 2022 (UTC)

I am afraid I checked every single mention of her name. There is lot of coverage after she made it to the BBC list (nothing profound though), and there is a mention here that she was arrested by authorities on 8 March 2020 for taking part in a march in support of women's rights in Bishkek. The latest I can find about the satellite is thew Wired article here but it is 2019 and in English. The idea was to launch the satellite in 2020, this obviously has not happened, at least it is not reported anywhere. Most likely, the project was either shelved because of COVID, or abandoned as unsuccessful. There is also an extensive interview with her from 2018 here. Not much, I must admit.--Ymblanter (talk) 14:41, 22 January 2022 (UTC)

Btw she is pretty clearly not Muslim, I removed this from the article. When I was searching I have indeed seen statements like "Muslim women made it to the BBC list", and in every single instance I looked at it was just a poor job of a journalist. "What is Kyrgyzstan, never heard about it. Let us look it up in Wikipedia. Ah, it is an obscure Muslim country somewhere in central Asia - the girl must be a Muslim then".--Ymblanter (talk) 14:55, 22 January 2022 (UTC)

There are also Kloop blogs on the progress; there is a 2021 onew which is actually a vlog, which suggests that the program is still running. The 2019 blog here does not mention Anisimova, though she is present on the photo, but says other people were leading the project. It gives quite some details about the organization.--Ymblanter (talk) 15:00, 22 January 2022 (UTC)

@Ymblanter: Yip, Covid has done for a lot of projects, worldwide. Thanks for finding those blogs and taking the Muslim term out. The Patreon page has a blog entry confirming that she left the project on good terms, in 2020 and LinkedIn shows she went to work for Klopp. So, I guess it doesn't leave much for the article. scope_creep^Talk 14:54, 24 January 2022 (UTC)

No, not much. May be a human rights march.--Ymblanter (talk) 14:57, 24 January 2022 (UTC)

I have sent you a note about a page you reviewed

Hello, Ymblanter

Thank you for creating Lillian Kwok.

User:Dps04, while examining this page as a part of our page curation process, had the following comments:

Thanks for the article. Consider improving with more reliable sources and corresponding information from the Chinese Wikipedia. Note that the article at its current stage seems to have given undue emphasis over Kwok's participation in a recent social gathering and alleged false claims as to her occupation, which might have affected the article's tone and neutrality. Consider, if possible, to add coverage of Kwok's background and her activities in other areas as well. Thanks.

To reply, leave a comment here and begin it with {{Re|Dps04}}. Please remember to sign your reply with ~~~~ .

(Message delivered via the Page Curation tool, on behalf of the reviewer.)

Dps04 (talk) 14:00, 24 January 2022 (UTC)

I do not think I have ever created Lillian Kwok. And there is no way I can improve anything using the Chinese Wikipedia.--Ymblanter (talk) 14:02, 24 January 2022 (UTC)

Ymblanter, in that case please ignore my message. My message was automated from the page review tool and for some reason was sent to you erroneously. Apologies for the confusion and happy editing~~ --Dps04 (talk) 14:05, 24 January 2022 (UTC)

Sure, no problem. I think my interaction with the article was that I reviewed it but then immediately unreviewed it because I had some notability doubts (I would need to look up what thic council means, and I did not have time for that at the moment). Presumably this is why I got the automatic message,--Ymblanter (talk) 14:15, 24 January 2022 (UTC)

I see, thanks for telling me that. As to your notability concerns, the subject is a newly elected Hong Kong lawmaker, and there are numerous sources in Chinese providing some decent to significant coverage of the subject: 1, 2. While the article would benefit from additional copyediting, the subject should be able to meet WP:NPOL #1 and WP:GNG, which is also why I reviewed it. Hope this addresses your concerns. --Dps04 (talk) 15:00, 24 January 2022 (UTC)

Great, thanks.--Ymblanter (talk) 15:05, 24 January 2022 (UTC)

Wiki Etiquette

Users are not required to be logged in, assuming someone who is not logged in is ban evading or a sock puppet account simply because they are not logged in is irrational. Then going so far as to accuse them of vandalism is not what we strive for here. It's even worse when your edits were factually incorrect. Please try to do better.ShroudedSciuridae (talk) 22:18, 25 January 2022 (UTC)

Whereas generally they are not required to log in I am sure this one was a sock. Hopefully now I have cleared this mess, which was left from the previous edit-warring.--Ymblanter (talk) 06:20, 26 January 2022 (UTC)

I can assure you I am no sock, even when not logged in.ShroudedSciuridae (talk) 21:49, 26 January 2022 (UTC)

I did not say you are a sock, though for a user with 81 edits your behavior is very atypical.--Ymblanter (talk) 21:55, 26 January 2022 (UTC)

You are too modest

You are too modest my friend, just strike it out, in-fact I have gone ahead & I have done just that Celestina007 (talk) 22:51, 25 January 2022 (UTC)

I think the closing admin will figure it out anyway.--Ymblanter (talk) 06:21, 26 January 2022 (UTC)

Question about revdeletion of WP:LIVE violations

Hi Ymblanter, thank you for the page protection!

I got one more question: On the Croatian Wikipedia we revision delete WP:LIVE violations (= not in all cases, but in some) and content that could be viewed as defamation or very nasty trolling/vandalism that could be insulting. How is that handled on en.wiki? Are such as cases (like in the examples I mentioned) usually left in the edit history?

Best regards, Koreanovsky (talk) 20:49, 26 January 2022 (UTC)

I have looked at the edits, I do not see there anything which needs to be revision-deleted, though of course another administrator can decide otherwise.--Ymblanter (talk) 20:50, 26 January 2022 (UTC)

Thank you for the fast reply and your comment! Best regards, Koreanovsky (talk) 20:57, 26 January 2022 (UTC)

Sure, no problem.--Ymblanter (talk) 20:58, 26 January 2022 (UTC)

About the FoP in Romania and Tudor Vladimirescu metro station

Hi Ymblanter, about your deletion of the image on the station of metro of Bucharest, I don't think it's appling the "ban" because it's a simple public station, not private building, not picture, statue or any kind of "thing" with a clear author. --DnaX (talk) 18:43, 27 January 2022 (UTC)

There is an architect (and possibly an artist, but I am not sure), and the station is an individual project of the architect. The photographs infringes on the copyright of the architect.--Ymblanter (talk) 18:45, 27 January 2022 (UTC)

Occupy Democrats

I may be misunderstanding the edit history, but you appear to have locked the page, probably due to people performing an edit and others undoing those edits. That edit need to be done. The paragraph in question leaves the Wikipedia article taking severe lean to the right, making unfounded accusations backed up by citations that leave much to be desired in an effort to discredit the most popular left-leaning source of news. 2601:248:4401:6330:E5FB:FE90:D06E:D4C4 (talk) 06:41, 31 January 2022 (UTC)

You should find consensus at the talk page of the article.--Ymblanter (talk) 06:43, 31 January 2022 (UTC)

Smolensk station

Hello
You reverted my edit here deleting the Moscow Railway category and asked "what do I mean?" (presumably by the summary "wrong smolensk station"). I deleted the category because the station isn’t in Moscow; I’m assuming whoever put it there was thinking of this Smolensk station (in Moscow), not the one in the article (which actually is in Smolensk). Moonraker12 (talk) 23:49, 31 January 2022 (UTC)

Yes, but Moscow Railway is not just in Moscow, it is one of the Russian Railways divisions which covers most of the oblasts adjacent to Moscow Oblast.--Ymblanter (talk) 06:19, 1 February 2022 (UTC)

Moscow Railway is used to refer a railroad system employed in entire Central Federal District, not just to the railroads or stations located in the vicinity of Moscow city. AXONOV (talk) ⚑ 08:58, 1 February 2022 (UTC)

Can you look at something on Commons for me?

See the recent history of ManaliJain's talk page over on commons (here). There's an account that I've blocked here on enwiki adding stuff that sure as hell looks like it's revealing personal information - might need revdel? Cheers Girth Summit _(blether) 18:02, 2 February 2022 (UTC)

 Done--Ymblanter (talk) 18:41, 2 February 2022 (UTC)

Thanks - much appreciated. I've requested a global lock. Girth Summit _(blether) 21:22, 2 February 2022 (UTC)

Sure, no problem. If they reject the global lock there is always T&S but I would normally not expect them to reject.--Ymblanter (talk) 21:35, 2 February 2022 (UTC)

They normally act on my requests - I make quite a lot through SPI, I can't remember a time when they've been rejected, although this is a bit of a different case. Thanks for the support. Girth Summit _(blether) 22:08, 2 February 2022 (UTC)

Yes, sure.--Ymblanter (talk) 22:10, 2 February 2022 (UTC)

Hey @Ymblanter: Please have a look at my talk page on commons where the same user i.e. Princepratap1234 is evading his earlier block(s) through IPs [8]. ManaliJain (talk) 10:02, 14 February 2022 (UTC)

I reverted, blocked the IP. and added your page to my watchlist.--Ymblanter (talk) 10:36, 14 February 2022 (UTC)

DYK for Russia?

Hi Ymblanter, I've seen you have stopped being an administrator for Russia etc. but this is for DYK and maybe this is ok. Someone brought Russia to GA, great. And has nominated it for DYK, great, too. But following was blocked for sock puppet, not so good. I have been the reviewer and now we are a bit stuck. I'd like to have a review, so could not you nominate it? I also feel the blocked editors work should be valued and specially Russia and the Russians. And maybe you have an even better hook? Here you can read and comment if interested. Template:Did you know nominations/RussiaParadise Chronicle (talk) 02:01, 4 February 2022 (UTC)

I am sorry but I stay clear of all kind of quality content. For DYK, I would need to review another nomination, and I am hesitant to do it because English is not my mother tongue, and I do not want to run into trouble.--Ymblanter (talk) 06:20, 4 February 2022 (UTC)

It's ok. Problem solved for now.Paradise Chronicle (talk) 08:38, 4 February 2022 (UTC)

More Commons stuff

Hi - yesterday I blocked MrBlueSky747 and Skynest101 as CU-confirmed socks of Anonymous427, who was already blocked here for repeated copyright violations involving image. I see that all three accounts have been active over on Commons, uploading images that Blue_Square_Thing had already raised concerns about (see the thread at User_talk:MrBlueSky747#Cummins image for context). Is it worth taking a look at the contribs and potentially blocking them over there? Cheers Girth Summit _(blether) 10:56, 6 February 2022 (UTC)

Thanks, I blocked the main account (which was not active there for quite some time) for a week and two socks indefinitely. This is as much as I can do at the moment.--Ymblanter (talk) 11:46, 6 February 2022 (UTC)

Unfortunately Commons is quite bureaucratic when dealing with copyright violators (see Commons:Commons talk:Criteria for speedy deletion#Creations by blocked or locked users). Blue Square Thing notes our en.wiki processes failed this time, but we do a bit better than Commons. CMD (talk) 12:22, 6 February 2022 (UTC)

Copyright violations are obviously amenable to speedy deletion, the problem is that it is often difficult to prove these are violations.--Ymblanter (talk) 12:25, 6 February 2022 (UTC)

Which I’m unable to do this time. The Nokia/Nikon multiple “typo” is all a little circumstantial Blue Square Thing (talk) 12:37, 6 February 2022 (UTC)

Indeed, the reverse search is the only option, and if it does not give any results we can not do anything.--Ymblanter (talk) 13:10, 6 February 2022 (UTC)

Well that's the problem in a nutshell: the burden of proof is always on the good faith volunteers, not on the serial copyright violator. CMD (talk) 13:23, 6 February 2022 (UTC)

can you approve an edit awaiting review

hi first thanks for the other comma in Lindsey Jacobellis article lol. I was bored and looking through pages with edits awaiting review and reviewed the Die Hard article and I wanted to approve its recent revision as the edit corresponded and explained the scene in the movie more better than what was mentioned before. You would probably agree with me too. I don't have rights yet I did however requested it.

Portland International Airport update

Hi Ymblanter, Portland, (OR) needs updating. Delta has filed a schedule update and Seoul-Incheon is now beginning September 12, 2022 and Tokyo-Haneda is resuming October 29, 2022 as per . Exact dates are not in the article. They have been retrieved from Google Flights. ProjectLauren (talk) 16:52, 13 February 2022 (UTC)

To be honest, I do not think it is a good idea to try keeping all airport articles aligned with the exact flight schedule. However, you are welcome to add a protected edit request at the talk page of the article, somebody would react.--Ymblanter (talk) 17:15, 13 February 2022 (UTC)

And, actually, you should be able to edit the article.--Ymblanter (talk) 17:16, 13 February 2022 (UTC)

WP:AFC Helper News

Hello! I wanted to drop a quick note for all of our AFC participants; nothing huge and fancy like a newsletter, but a few points of interest.

• AFCH will now show live previews of the comment to be left on a decline.
• The template {{db-afc-move}} has been created - this template is similar to {{db-move}} when there is a redirect in the way of an acceptance, but specifically tells the patrolling admin to let you (the draft reviewer) take care of the actual move.

Short and sweet, but there's always more to discuss at WT:AFC. Stop on by, maybe review a draft on the way? Whether you're one of our top reviewers, or haven't reviewed in a while, I want to thank you for helping out in the past and in the future.

Hazara people

Здравствуйте, уважаемый Ymblanter!

Можете, по возможности, присмотреть за статьей Mongolic peoples, а также напомнить участнику Muhmmadaht о необходимости соблюдения правил вики. Участник Muhmmadaht удаляет инфу о хазарейцах из статьи несмотря на то, что я привожу источники. Участник настроен агрессивно, а также откровенно пишет недостоверную информацию: в частности утверждает, что мои источники пишут не о хазарейцах, а о другой этнической группе. Буду премного благодарен.--KoizumiBS (talk) 18:13, 17 February 2022 (UTC)

Нет, у вас там, очевидно, несогласие по поводу контента, я в это влезать не буду.--Ymblanter (talk) 18:47, 17 February 2022 (UTC)

@Ymblanter:, можете, пожалуйста, все-таки посмотреть на стиль его общения: ссылка на обсуждение. Я предлагал оппоненту способы консенсуса и просил приводить источники. На что он ответил, что ему источники не нужны, а мои источники по его мнению "untrue". Разве это не яркий пример деструктивного поведения (WP:DISRUPT)?--KoizumiBS (talk) 10:34, 23 February 2022 (UTC)

Да, там, кажется, серьёзные проблемы. Выдал последнее предупреждение.--Ymblanter (talk) 10:51, 23 February 2022 (UTC)

Спасибо за оперативную реакцию. Надеюсь, предупреждение от администратора его приструнит.--KoizumiBS (talk) 10:56, 23 February 2022 (UTC)

Спасибо за восстановление информации. Можете, пожалуйста, закрыть мою заявку.--KoizumiBS (talk) 18:53, 23 February 2022 (UTC)

Здравствуйте @Ymblanter:! Прошу прощения за беспокойство. Можете, пожалуйста, по возможности ознакомиться с действиями участника Hamkar 99. Участник удаляет текст из статьи List of Hazara tribes. На попытки начать обсуждение никак не реагирует.--KoizumiBS (talk) 16:33, 25 February 2022 (UTC)

Напишите ему на страницу для начала.--Ymblanter (talk) 16:35, 25 February 2022 (UTC)

Хорошо. Еще раз попытаюсь начать с ним дискуссию.--KoizumiBS (talk) 16:57, 25 February 2022 (UTC)

Здравствуйте! Истек срок поставленной Вами защиты на статью List of Hazara tribes. Я собираюсь восстановить информацию (иформация со ссылками на источники), удаленную участником Hamkar 99. На сообщение на его странице, участник не отреагировал. Хотел бы спросить, моя правка не будет являться нарушением правил?--KoizumiBS (talk) 16:56, 2 March 2022 (UTC)

Нет, не будет.--Ymblanter (talk) 16:57, 2 March 2022 (UTC)

Видимо, на диалог он не настроен. Как и в прошлый раз просто удаляет без объяснений.--KoizumiBS (talk) 18:15, 3 March 2022 (UTC)

 Done--Ymblanter (talk) 18:50, 3 March 2022 (UTC)

Прошу прощения за беспокойство. Но диалог с оппонентом зашел в тупик. Просил его перестать делать собственные умозаключения и приводить источники. На что он ответил очередным удалением.--KoizumiBS (talk) 23:24, 6 March 2022 (UTC)

@Ymblanter:, можете, пожалуйста, обратить внимание на действия пользователя Hamkar 99. Во время обсуждения он описал добавленные мною источники следующим образом: "So the information is poor and needs to be edited and deleted". На просьбу на более обоснованную аргументацию я получил такой ответ: "This is my own conclusion". На мое предложение перестать удалять источники и для соблюдения НТЗ добавлять свои: он добавил источник на персидском (который я пока не могу проверить) и удалил источники и информацию, добавленные мною ранее. Сейчас же он отменил мою правку со следующим описанием: incorrect and pan-Mongolism edits. Полагаю, подобные обвинения - это WP:DE, а также обвинение в панмонголизме - это прямое нарушение Закона Годвина, после которого дискуссия с оппонентом практически невозможна.--KoizumiBS (talk) 10:01, 8 March 2022 (UTC)

Turkmenistan

Hello Ymblanter,

The Russian language has no official status in Turkmenistan. Why did you undo my change? — Preceding unsigned comment added by 2A0A:A546:FC1C:0:A037:CCA8:E136:E3E5 (talk) 18:25, 25 February 2022 (UTC)

The article does not say that it has.--Ymblanter (talk) 18:50, 25 February 2022 (UTC)

That is true. Why is the Russian language indicated as "the language of inter-ethnic communication" in the infobox? According to the constitution of Turkmenistan, Russian is not the official language of inter-ethnic communication in the country. According to the country's constitution, only Turkmen is the official language of the country.

The sentence "although Russian still is widely spoken in cities as a language of inter-ethnic communication" does not fit into an encyclopaedia article as this sentence is a valuation in favour of the Russian language. As a result, this article is not neutral and not objective and therefore this article violates the rules of Wikipedia. — Preceding unsigned comment added by 2A0A:A546:FC1C:0:A037:CCA8:E136:E3E5 (talk) 00:45, 26 February 2022 (UTC)

I disagree with this. The talk page of the article is at your service.--Ymblanter (talk) 06:37, 26 February 2022 (UTC)

Are song lyrics always a copyright violation?

I was working on Draft:Bayraktar (song) and had the lyrics removed due to copyright violation. Will this always be the case or are there specific rules I can follow to include them? Do I need to find evidence the song is in creative commons or similar? MaitreyaVaruna (talk) 07:47, 11 March 2022 (UTC)

In this case, 70 years after the death of the author of the lyrics, unless, indeed, the author chooses to release the lyrics under a CC license. I did not check whether the author is known; if not, 70 years after publication.--Ymblanter (talk) 07:54, 11 March 2022 (UTC)

Yeah hadn't seen that, I checked the talk page and didn't see the template telling me it had been PROD'd and hadn't checked through the edit history fully. – Muboshgu (talk) 20:20, 14 March 2022 (UTC)

Indeed, things were happening too fast. No problem, I hope we are settled now, I have already commented at the AfD. Ymblanter (talk) 20:21, 14 March 2022 (UTC)

The system works! – Muboshgu (talk) 20:28, 14 March 2022 (UTC)

Yes, I think we are now within the appropriate process. Ymblanter (talk) 20:30, 14 March 2022 (UTC)

I was undoing some POV anonymous IPv6 edits at https://en.wikipedia.org/w/index.php?title=Red_Croatia&action=history and noticed that you had added some sanctions on the netblock already. Could you check if this is this the same abuser? --Joy [shallot] (talk) 08:22, 17 March 2022 (UTC)

Sorry, I do not think I am fully qualified.--Ymblanter (talk) 08:41, 17 March 2022 (UTC)

A bit too rapid CFDW for categories "by states with limited recognition"

Hello!

When you moved this batch of speedy discussions to CFDW, it seems that you overlooked the comments (visible here) between nominator Olchug and User:Brandmeister about the targets. They agreed that, for better grammar, targets should be e.g. Category:Heads of government of states with limited recognition, not Category:Heads of government by states with limited recognition as initially nominated. Can we fix the renamings and move the categories to the agreed name instead? It should be:

• Category:Spouses of national leaders of unrecognized or largely unrecognized states to Category:Spouses of national leaders by states with limited recognition to Category:Spouses of national leaders of states with limited recognition
• Category:Heads of state of unrecognized or largely unrecognized states to Category:Heads of state by states with limited recognition to Category:Heads of state of states with limited recognition
• Category:Heads of government of unrecognized or largely unrecognized states to Category:Heads of government by states with limited recognition to Category:Heads of government of states with limited recognition
• Category:Government of unrecognized or partly unrecognized states to Category:Government by states with limited recognition to Category:Government of states with limited recognition

THanks. I see, I have misread the comments. I will process them now.--Ymblanter (talk) 06:23, 22 March 2022 (UTC)

Thank you! Place Clichy (talk) 09:50, 22 March 2022 (UTC)

What do you mean "it is irrelevant how many official langues are now in Ukraine"? Ukrainian was and remains the only state language of Ukraine. This is an indisputable fact. Any other speculation contributes in favour of the Russian invaders. —NachtReisender (talk) 20:27, 27 March 2022 (UTC)

So what? How is this related to your revert? It is absolutely irrelevant for this article. And please stop using hate speech when you are talking to me. "Supporting Russian invaders" is not the way to address me.--Ymblanter (talk) 20:34, 27 March 2022 (UTC)

Wikipedia:Articles for deletion/Find My Kids

Hi Ymblanter. I was wondering if you can just evaluate Russian sources (no vote, just a hint if they are RS quality) presented in an AfD Wikipedia:Articles for deletion/Find My Kids by a user. I will be thankful. 2001:8003:7D11:6600:A4F2:7BF0:9E1E:F729 (talk) 11:56, 28 March 2022 (UTC)

All RS, as far as I can judge, some of them (like RBC, Kommersant, or Afisha) unconditionally RS.--Ymblanter (talk) 14:47, 28 March 2022 (UTC)

Rev deletion request

I'm posting this here so it doesn't draw so much attention but doesn't seem to be severe enough to warrant email or IRC. Since you were recently active wondering if you could rev delete this edit summary [10]. While it's unlikely the IP will ever see it, and if they were going to they probably already have, it seems to me to be something we don't want to keep per RD2. I've already warned the editor concerned. Nil Einne (talk) 12:03, 28 March 2022 (UTC)

 Done--Ymblanter (talk) 14:46, 28 March 2022 (UTC)

Please do not vandalize Wikipedia

This is your only warning; if you vandalize Wikipedia again, as you did at FedEx, you may be blocked from editing without further notice. You inserted an image of 35 Hudson Yards into the infobox and claimed you were restoring an image. Not so. Having monitored that article for over fifteen years, I can tell you that image was never there to begin with. --Coolcaesar (talk) 15:28, 29 September 2021 (UTC)

Very nice of you to accuse me in vandalism now for my edit on 30 December 2021. Now, the reason I edited the article was that someone inserted a long text with a press-release text and this image. As an uninvolved admin, I revision-deleted the text, so it is not really surprising that you, as a non-admin, can not see that it was inserted there. Meaning your aspersion is groundless and plain wrong. May I please add that the manner you interacted with me is substandard and below expectations of an editor in good standing. I have a long experience here, and I do not expect you to apologize, but if I see this again, I will ask for editing restrictions for you.--Ymblanter (talk) 06:27, 14 April 2022 (UTC)

And I see that you have been warned by MichaelMaggs for exacly this a few months ago, so that you might be ready for the restrictions now.--Ymblanter (talk) 06:29, 14 April 2022 (UTC)
