User talk:Paki.tv

Hi Paki.tv, and welcome to Wikipedia! Thanks for your contributions to the coolest online encyclopedia I know of =). I sure hope you stick around; we're always in need of more people to create new articles and improve the ones we already have. You'll probably find it easiest to start with a tutorial of how the wikipedia works, and you can test stuff for yourself in the sandbox. When you're contributing, you'll probably find the manual of style to be helpful, and you'll also want to remember a couple important guidelines. First, write from a neutral point of view, second, be bold in editing pages, and third, use wikiquette. Those are probably the most important ones, and you can take a look at some others at the policies and guidelines page. You might also be interested in how to write a great article and possibly adding some images to your articles.

Be sure to get involved in the community – you can contact me at my talk page if you have any questions, and you can check out the village pump, where lots of wikipedians hang out and discuss things. If you're looking for something to do, check out the community portal. And whenever you ask a question or post something on a talk page, be sure to sign your name by typing ~~~~.

Again, welcome! It's great to have you. Happy editing! --Spangineer (háblame) June 29, 2005 14:58 (UTC)

Hezbi Islami and Wikipedia:Redirects

Hi there! I was the one who redirected Hezbi Islami to Hezb-e Islami, but I don't know a lot about the transliteration, only did it based on the amount of incoming links, since nobody gave me any input at the time. So if there's a standard, I'm glad that you're upholding it. One thing I'd like to mention, though, is that you left in place some double redirects. That is, you left Hezb-i-Islami and other alternate spellings redirecting to Hezb-e Islami, which was itself a redirect. And so if a person followed the link in U.S. invasion of Afghanistan, it wouldn't actually take them all the way to the article. This is no big deal, and I'm fixing it myself, but I wanted to let you know so you wouldn't make the same mistake in the future. See you around, and much appreciation for your efforts! NickelShoe 05:47, 6 January 2006 (UTC)

Oh, if you didn't know, the way to tell if there's any double redirects is to click on "what links here" over in the toolbox on the left side of the page. Just check to make sure all the pages that say "redirect page" in parentheses redirect directly to the main article and not to each other. Later! NickelShoe 05:51, 6 January 2006 (UTC)

Don't worry about checking the links for Hezbi Islami, because I went ahead and did that myself. I just wanted to make sure that you knew how to do it next time. NickelShoe 13:45, 6 January 2006 (UTC)

Bakunin reverts

As indicated, I have requested arbitration. Here is my statement:

To maintain the NPOV status of the Bakunin entry, his anti-semitic comments should not be given the undue prominence that certain people keep insisting on giving them. It is sufficient to note that Bakunin made anti-semitic comments, and then to provide a link to an acceptable original or NPOV secondary source. The current quotations are taken from anti-semitic websites and are of dubious provenance. The first quote (allegedly calling Jews an "exploiting sect," a "people of leeches," etc.) is taken from an "essay" posted on an anti-semitic website: http://library.flawlesslogic.com/jtr_01.htm. This is not an acceptable NPOV secondary source. The second quote is just a lengthier version of the first quote, and is supposedly from an essay attributed to Bakunin entitled "Polemique contre les Juifs." There is no link or other information given that would enable anyone to verify the authenticity of this alleged quotation or the essay it is supposed to be taken from. If you search for it on the internet, it shows up only on anti-semitic websites. I have yet to find a reference to this alleged essay in any library catalog or in any collection of Bakunin's writings. When I posted a "citation needed" note to this second quotation, the Iron Duke simply deleted that, claiming the current citation was adequate. Thus, I object to the inclusion of these particular quotations because they have not been properly authenticated. I also object to more than passing reference to Bakunin's anti-semitism because these lengthy quotations, even if authentic, exaggerate the importance of Bakunin's anti-semitic writings, which formed only a miniscule part of his voluminous literary output (the Archives Bakounine project published 7 large volumes of his writings, and that was not a complete collection; the International Institute for Social History in Amsterdam has since published his complete works on CD ROM. It contains thousands of pages of material). Robgraham 20:48, 4 July 2006 (UTC)

I don't have to "explain" anything -- you're the one who is substituting a ranting personal tirade for factual information, so you're the one who has to explain things.

'Smash Wikipedia, down with NPOV, down with consensus' - a note by 158-152-12-77

Hi Paki.tv, I just wrote this, and thought you might be interested. Best regards from 158-152-12-77

Prediction

My prediction: Wikipedia will sell to Microsoft or Google, or otherwise partner with them in a big way, or conduct its own IPO, within five years. Linux is already big money. Open source is big money. This is the real world, i.e. the business world. It saddens me, how few people realise the above. The bureaucratically-mediated 'closing down to what is acceptable' is visible from one end of Wikipedia to the other. On a central level this is indicated by the references to verifiability through academia. Who pays for academia? Who does academia serve? You certainly won't get a proper answer by applying 'NPOV'.

NPOV? What a load of crap!

'NPOV' is boss-talk, pure and simple. It is an ideology, a chimera, a lie. There is no such thing as NPOV, nor should there be. NPOV is a cover for the POV of the boss class, and of all who want petty positions under the boss class, telling the plebs what's what. Under the latter heading I'd include all long-time politicos.

The alternative? Well, it's when proletarians get together without role-playing, when neither the bosses, nor any representatives or 'activists', are around. In places such as the UK, usually this only happens in twos and threes nowadays. The fascist and totalitarian character of current conditions can't be got rid of by imagining it doesn't exist.

A cautionary tale

If you want an analogy, look at 'health'. Some 'health' controllers were annoyed for a time, fearing hordes of the great unwashed coming into medics' surgeries with information they had found on the internet. They really hated the idea that it would be easy for people to find stuff out and share their experiences. Soon they realised it wasn't so scary, and all they had to do was to set up some 'public-access' sites, ostensibly for patients but in practice upholding respect for the medical system as is. Or just let it roll, and let the 'opinion-formers', themselves taking their opinions from other opinion-formers, and so on, all the way up to WORLD CORPORATE PR CENTRAL, take the floor. In short, the internet is as sh*t as anything else.

Many 'participatory' patients' websites are openly sponsored by pharmaceutical companies. Public opinion of medicine is organised from the top, the same as public opinion of anything else. With other sites the relationship is less immediately obvious, i.e. the corporate logos aren't used.

The system is supple. It can recuperate. This is what Wikipedia is about. It's a big focus group where anyone can wander in. "Press the red button on your remote control now". "Contribute to a Wikipedia article now".

Same old lie, just a modern wrapping

Wikipedia is, in fact, an extremely important item in current worldwide internet bullsh*t and the perception thereof. Most journalists, being lazy swine, use it. But never mind them. Many decent people with good pro-social intentions will be fooled. They will either sell out for a bit of local fame, or get burned out, I'm afraid. 'Don't get sucked in' is the best advice. These waters are run by sharks. Capitalism really is a slaughterhouse, it's not just something to say from a stage.

In a nutshell

It's the 'participation' lie. The old cartoon had it right, showing someone with a rope around their neck, and the slogan 'I'll hold, you braid'.

The revolutionary 'line' must be: smash Wikipedia, smash the internet.

The hell with consensus!158-152-12-77 12:52, 16 August 2006 (UTC)

Well a few comments. On one level, NPOV is like doing an exam paper, presenting all sides of the case etc. On another level you are right, it creates the same old illusions of democracy, dressed up as modern technology. Will it get sold off for a vaste amount of money: yes I reckon so. Also Open Source Software in general, including Linux, are very important for the capitalist future. Like the railways, at first developed by private capital, and then taken over by national capital. I agree with you that changes are on the cards as regards intellectual property rights (IPR). I think I would go further and suggest that one reason why the Soviet Union was done away with was because it failed to operate copyright laws (which led to all the restraints imposed about exporting IT there set up by the USA). I agree with you that it is disappointing how little discussion there is about the limitations of Open Source. I have seen rooms full of people talking about liberalising the IPR as the next revolution. Most of these peopel are themselves are young programmers who have more to gain by using other peoples work. Whether they will feel the same when they have a substantial back-catalogue of material is another matter. Aside from political naivety, the most significant current is individualist libertarianism . . .

Returning to NPOV, it creates a very constrained writing style, which can be easily internalised - you can just get used to writing with these constraints and forget you are doing so. The point of reference is broader than academia, but still creates problems. I think the issue is that all information is distributed in a fashion helping to perpetuate capitalism, this affects the information which is available on the internet, just as much as acaedmia etc. So any interventions take place in the situation of asymmetrical warfare. It is only in times of open contestation that we have any other situation.

So why use Wikipedia? I think on my part, laziness is part of the answer. It provides a big note pad where I can work on stuff (like Emile Acollas and Joseh Heco), and perhaps get help for others. A bit of an open research tool. Yes of course anything we do becomes alienated and can be used against us. And perhaps wikipedia provides a way in which that can be speeded up. I don't think wikipedia desrves a privileged place when it comes to seizing the means of production, nor a privileged place in terms of oppressive institutions which need to be smashed. Just as the Bolsheviks used their control of the electrical power stations to help seize control in the Soviet Union, or the anarchists fought with the stalinists over control of the telephone exchange, certain industries by their nature have strategic importance in how industry as a whole operates. And of course it can be turned off at teh flick of a switch, as we saw on 7-7, when the mobile phone network was disabled. What concerns me in all this is much more the internalisation of the values embedded in these institutions, eg that NPOV is in some way "good" or "fair", or that Open Source is somehow anti-thetical to capitalism, or that teh interneyt is liberating. These illusions need to be smashed, but to what extent this involves smashing the institutions which create them and the technologies upon which they are based I think remains to be seen. I do not know how to envisage a society without any institutions - by which I mean organisations which draw together specific activities, the skills, technologies and resources through which those activities can occur - i.e. a division of labour. I do not know how the existing organisation of resources, skills and technologies would be re-organised in a communist society. However, the anti-systemic library is a very limited attempt to look at some of those questions. Yes, workers have been sharing information for generations, even under conditions when possession of certain material could be met with death. I shall leave the question of "Escape" to another day. Even Gaughin going to sun himself on a South Pacific island could not escape the contradictions of contemporary capitalism. What hope is there today? I prefer resistance to escape - which of course can be done from teh South Pacific jus as much as anywhere else.Harrypotter 09:30, 20 August 2006 (UTC)

Hi Harry! Nice to hear from you. We agree on the essentials. This will have to be short and aphoristic; I'm about to go to my Pacific island! :-)

What importance to give to the concept of institution? I don't think such an institution as a library will exist in communism. All books etc. will be in the same 'library', in which case the concept could only help to cause separation. If we kept the word, it would just mean books etc. But asking Is there a book on this in the library? would be an odd way of asking Is there a book on this?

I think some institutions will exist in communism, though. E.g. the institutionalisation of the first consumption of food after waking up, aka breakfast. Just without the hassle, the harmful additives, and any prospect of going to work. Calling for the abolition of breakfast would seem unserious and arty.

As for the internet institution, I think its abolition should be accepted as an aim by those who want a better world. I can't imagine how the internet could continue to exist in communism. It's much better to relate to people face-to-face. Getting to see them won't be a drag even if they are on the other side of the world.

I agree that open source is very important for the capitalist future, although how things will happen in China, as compared with in the US empire, is not wholly clear.

Roomsful of people thinking the liberalisation of intellectual property rights is the next revolution? I'd hazard the guess that most of them were computer programmers for whom the focus of a) their career aspirations and b) their politics was...the fascist US empire which has long carried 'FREEDOM' on its banner...

I tend to stick my fingers in my ears and go 'laaaaa' when computer programmers come out with social theories based on the economics of computer programming.

Some gibberish I found recently from a certain disreputable individual of our mutual acquaintance in the distant past is here. Presumably having a double first in classics, even one obtained via time travel, is an advantage in the US software industry.

You make an interesting point about the railways. Much of early railway investment (Russia, South America, Africa) was controlled by a handful of merchant banking families, e.g. Rothschilds and Hambros, who didn't step on each other's toes much. In those rare places where the State was involved in the construction effort, the money was raised from specific loans (largely from those same banking interests) rather than through general taxation.

Interesting that one of the spokespeople for the ones-and-zeros guys who wants to tell us all what's what, is Douglas Rushkoff who raps admiringly about how Judaism has been so successful because it's open source. Yeah, right.

"I prefer resistance to escape". Gauguin made his money on the French stock exchange before going in for the French myth of Tahiti etc., which the mass-murder advocate and marquess, de Sade, had also been into. In Tahiti he went to church every day!

Doubtless we'd agree that to build up a choice between resistance and escape as a big idea would be subjectivist, as perhaps indicated in the raising of 'preference' onto a pedestal that it would entail. I think much of the reason that resistance occurs is that it is forced. Resistance isn't a great deal of fun, just less undignified, degrading, and psychically unhealthy than being ground down into the sh*t without a fight. (Unmistakable evidence that the so-called 'anti-capitalist' movement is anything but, lies in their ignoring this point in their advertising. Quoting 'I won't make a revolution if I can't dance', or whatever that idiot American tourist Emma Goldman said, is pretty much typical). The overall aim of resistance is...to escape.

I was just making a more mundane point that too many people fail to escape what they could escape. Recently I encountered someone in her 50s, who I believe has been in debt for decades, who plans to buy a house and live in it with her elderly dad who is selling his own house and will put up some of the money. In order to get a large house, she will be getting a loan similar to the one that she has currently got, which is linked to the mortgage on 'her' present house. The result - she will probably have to continue to go to work up until she is maybe 65, to pay off the bank. And yet she has got a fine opportunity, right now, to get out of debt forever. This sort of mentality is widespread in the UK. People have much more sense in most of the rest of the world - Russia, India, wherever.

Wikipedia/NPOV. I participate on Wikipedia too... One crawls in through the interstices only. Conflict on given pages is bound to be lost, because it's the cops and our enemies generally who are most at home with NPOV, which we stand opposed to (as with moderation) but without being able to say so during a conflict. That cops find they are in the element here is indisputable. The page on archaeogeodesy was closed down by the cops, although admittedly they had unwitting help from a small businessman. Elsewhere, the encyclopaedic position is that the cold war ended in 1989 and that East European countries were mainly soviets. Not to mention the medical-industry lie that medics are doctors. Profiteering, cops, lies, all go well together. Recently I had cop trouble, people finding my choice of username objectionable, and interpreting misread rules to back themselves up. Perhaps a cop had a filter running to trap the phrase 'Smash Wikipedia'. Perhaps a GPAer called the cops. I dunno.

Talking of financially loaded greenery, I wonder whether Zack Goldsmith will be in the next front-of-house 'government'?

Catch you later; hope you're well; take care!158-152-12-77 11:13, 23 August 2006 (UTC)

link to British

Hello, when you want to link to the article about something British, please do not link to British, as that is a disambiguation page (which nothing should be linked to). Instead link to the one of the options found on that page such as United Kingdom, Great Britain or British English by writing out [[United Kingdom|British]] or [[Great Britain|British]]. Regards, Jeff3000 00:05, 19 November 2006 (UTC)

Many thanxxxxxxxxxxxxxx... how about Former British Empire ? Paki.tv 23:43, 19 November 2006 (UTC)

"Former British Empire" redirects to Commonwealth of Nations, which has officially not been British since 1949. One could make a link like "former British Empire" (no colon in an article link) or former British Empire (with a direct link disambiguation). It is always best to check links by using the "Show preview" button before pressing "Save page". That way you can edit the redirects and make them into direct links. Hu 11:57, 5 January 2007 (UTC)

Speedy deletion of African Mine Workers` Union

A tag has been placed on African Mine Workers` Union requesting that it be speedily deleted from Wikipedia. This has been done under section G12 of the criteria for speedy deletion, because the article appears to be a blatant copyright infringement. For legal reasons, we cannot accept copyrighted text or images borrowed from other web sites or printed material, and as a consequence, your addition will most likely be deleted. You may use external websites as a source of information, but not as a source of sentences. This part is crucial: say it in your own words.

If the external website belongs to you, and you want to allow Wikipedia to use the text — which means allowing other people to modify it — then you must include on the external site the statement "I, (name), am the author of this article, (article name), and I release its content under the terms of the GNU Free Documentation License, Version 1.2 and later." You might want to look at Wikipedia's policies and guidelines for more details, or ask a question here.

If you think that this notice was placed here in error, you may contest the deletion by adding {{hangon}} to the top of the page that has been nominated for deletion (just below the existing speedy deletion or "db" tag), coupled with adding a note on the talk page explaining your position, but be aware that once tagged for speedy deletion, if the article meets the criterion it may be deleted without delay.

'Error' in registration of title regarding 62 Fieldgate Street at the Land Registry

(I've also circulated this to Harrypotter).

From the LARC talk page:

(begin)

Research at the Land Registry and Companies House has shown the owner of 62 Fieldgate Street (with no charges on its title, so the asset is not mortgaged) to be Fieldgate Action Resource Centre Limited, company number 3836799, a company incorporated on 3 September 1999 which changed its name to London Action Resource Centre Limited on 5 February 2004. Curiously the number of that company as registered at Companies House is 3836099. Never mind the presence or absence of an initial 0 in the number, which relates only to the fact that Companies House uses an 8-digit number in the anticipation that all 8 will be needed some day. There seems to have been an error in the recording of the company's number when the title to the property at 62 Fieldgate was registered. There is no currently active company with the number 3836799... Explanation anyone?

(end)

Worth digging into a little bit maybe? Rising Tide UK, "Taking Action on the Root Causes of Climate Change," has hallmarks of a corporate/state-created pseudo-movement. Absolutely no shadow of a doubt about that. The climate has always changed and will always change. This is very clearly the realm of serious propaganda and manipulation.

I am currently homeless and post from a variety of physical locations, always from IPs which others can also use. So it would be easier to have this dicussion on your page.

(LARC) was indeed originally registered as FARC - it think they changed the name soon afterwards. Thanks for your comments. the Triodos Bank connection is also very interesting... Paki.tv (talk) 12:17, 19 December 2008 (UTC)

Hi. I knew about FARC (1999) -> LARC (2004); this info is available for free from Companies House. But note that

• a) according to the 'office copy' of the title deed for the Fieldgate Street property (which I downloaded for £3 from the Land Registry), the company's number is wrongly recorded in that title deed, and
• b) according to Harrypotter, the property is not recorded in the company's filed accounts as an asset.

Might a) and b) possibly be related? The thing with the number is only very minor in itself (although a lawyer who made such an error when filing the TR1 transfer form after a property purchase would be very sloppy), but it adds to the feeling that something curious is going on with this company and this property.

Agreed about Triodos. They are connected with Goldsmith family interests, and come up in connection with all sorts of 'green' crap (e.g. Nick Rosen's 'off-grid' stuff), but I haven't tracked them further than that. On the Goldsmith klan, see for example here.

Rising Tide is absolutely certainly a State/corporate pseudo-movement. The idea of a 'grass roots' 'movement' against 'climate change' is completely and utterly ridiculous; such a 'movement' could ONLY be fake. I mention this because of Vestey/Brown's involvement with Rising Tide.

Anyway, nice to meet you (even if on a right-wing website like Wikipedia!), and solstitial best wishes!82.153.29.63 (talk) 19:42, 19 December 2008 (UTC)

Cheers. I'd say the building's proboblaly owned by Vestey. Rising Tide, just like other LARC Usergroups eg Wombles, Indymedia etc aren't grassroots or mass movements at all... more like Bakuninists .. But I have heard/read nothing i would take seriously about State involvement. Thanks also for the links: The Mundi Club site which has the Goldsmiths article has right-wing views on it too...? They seem to be writing alot about Israel but don't have any grassroots connections there? Paki.tv (talk) 14:09, 20 December 2008 (UTC)

Rather than under any ism, I'd file Rising Tide as a deliberate corporate/State creation, cf. the 'colour revolution' 'movements' in east-central Europe, Georgia, etc., albeit longer-lasting. Nobody who is serious enough to 'organise' (or do anything else that requires proper effort) gives a toss about 'climate change'. It is a totally manufactured 'issue'. The climate is changing (in England, some trees that blossomed in March in living memory are now blossoming in December), but it has always changed and it always will change. To say climate change should or can be stopped is loony. This is just an up-to-date form of the idea that 'we're all in the same boat'; that major cultural changes themed around permanent 'security' mobilisation are required (thus spake Ephraim Halevy on 7/7); and the proletarians are dirty and should tighten their belts and stop their dirty habits - like surviving maybe? The whole presentation of Rising Tide strikes me as utterly fake. Fake in the way that, say, the Zionist 'left' is fake in Israel (and elsewhere), because a person cannot seriously be 'left-wing' or 'socialist' and in favour of apartheid. Serious Bakuninists would be just as anti-revolutionary but at least they would be genuine.

RT has Vestey involvement. Not sure whether he or linked interests fund them, but wouldn't be surprising.

Indymedia is also a completely fake creation, in my opinion.

I give all these things and scenes a very wide berth indeed.

I only discovered the Mundi Club site recently. Haven't seen anything there that is right wing. I'm not saying it doesn't exist, but can you point to something in particular? Thought they were excellent on the history of greenism. I think they are 'political vegans'. It may be the work of one especially energetic person?

Re. the Mundi stuff on Zionism, well there are things that need to be said about the developments that have led to 'Sarko the sayan' in France (imagine if his CV included a stint for the Russian SVR or MI6 instead of Mossad), the rise of the (almost all Jewish) 'oligarchs' in Russia, the role of JINSA in the propaganda for US foreign policy under Bush, etc., etc. Obama's chief of staff is Emanuel Rahm, the so-called "ex"-Israeli who was so serious about giving up his Israeli passport that he went back to Israel to work with the military (supposedly in a civilian role and not as part of his national service, but who are they trying to kid?). Meanwhile in the UK the head of the Foreign Office's legal department, Daniel Bethlehem, previously did pretty much exactly the same job for Israel, being their chief adviser on international law. (He was the dude who advised them about dealing with the United Nations enquiry with regard to concerns over the Jenin massacre which took place in the immediate aftermath of 9/11 - advice which led them to tell the UN to f*ck off). Not for nothing did Robin Cook (later to found dead up a mountain) go on about UN Security Council Resolution 242 in his resignation speech. Over the past 20 years, the vast majority of uses of the veto on the UN Security Council have been by the US to defend Israel against censure. It is impossible not to conclude that Zionism is a very significant fact in geopolitics - even if one is unaware that the Israeli armed forces are the second or third most powerful military force in the world, according to one of their own main military strategic ideologues.

Sure, when coming across the Mundi Club for the first time, one has to bear in mind the possibility that they are some kind of Nazis or anti-Semites, but they don't seem to be so at all! E.g. when they talk about Israel and the UK Labour Party (and there's a lot to say, e.g. Blair's private money being run by leading Zionist Martin Paisner; and the role of Lord Levy, and so on), they are quite sedate and mention that various operators in the party are more inclined to be pro-Palestinian (whatever that may mean). I found reading the Mundi stuff like a breath of fresh air in fact! Power to their elbows!82.153.29.63 (talk) 19:46, 20 December 2008 (UTC)

The Mundi articles (eg 2006 article about "America"'s "Jewish masters" ) - are anti-Jewish, rather than anti-Israeli or anti-Zionist - and therefore feed into old racist conspiracy theories. In fact on another page - http://www.geocities.com/carbonomics/MCtfirm/10tf24/10tf24v.html - these conspiracies are even written out, eg the totally ridiculous claim that Communism and the Labour movement is a product of Judaism (do a search for 'communism' on the page - i'm not gonna quote such crap here but it reads like nazi propoganda to me ... some of the research is interesting though but i would be very wary when approaching them ... now LARC and the user groups of LARC are Anarcho-Racists even though they won't admit it too - but their racism is even more sophisticated . they occupy the same territory as National Anarchists but from a different perspective.

You currently appear to be engaged in an edit war according to the reverts you have made on National-Anarchism. Note that the three-revert rule prohibits making more than three reversions on a single page within a 24-hour period. Additionally, users who perform several reversions in content disputes may be blocked for edit warring even if they do not technically violate the three-revert rule. When in dispute with another editor you should first try to discuss controversial changes to work towards wording and content that gains a consensus among editors. Should that prove unsuccessful, you are encouraged to seek dispute resolution, and in some cases it may be appropriate to request page protection. Please stop the disruption, otherwise you may be blocked from editing. Though you did not technically violate 3RR since you only made three reverts, I expect you to engage in good-faith dispute resolution rather than simply reverting others to your preferred version. –xeno^talk 21:27, 28 March 2010 (UTC)

• I notice you're restored the term "radical right" into the lead when it is not supported by the body. In fact, the term "radical right" does not appear at all in the article. Please review Wikipedia:Lead section#Relative emphasis. Failure to adhere to the guidance provided there and continuing to engage in a slow-moving edit war to insert this contrary to the guideline may be considered a form of disruptive editing. –xeno^talk 14:52, 7 April 2010 (UTC)
  • Continuing to add "radical right" in the lead sentence [1] without addressing the concerns raised over relative emphasis may be considered edit warring/disruptive editing and may lead to a block for the same. –xeno^talk 19:34, 8 April 2010 (UTC)
    • And again. Please respond to my query which I've now cross-posted to the mediation page.. –xeno^talk 20:56, 8 April 2010 (UTC)

Meetup in Cambridge, 27 March

See Wikipedia:Meetup/Cambridge 6 - much as before. We'd be glad to see you. Charles Matthews (talk) 19:53, 22 March 2010 (UTC)

April 2010

This is the only warning you will receive regarding your disruptive comments.
The next time you make a personal attack, you may be blocked from editing without further notice. Comment on content, not on other contributors or people. "Liarmaster" and similar analogs are entirely unacceptable names to call another editor, especially in a mediation proceeding. –xeno^talk 19:41, 7 April 2010 (UTC)

Note

There is a thread here that may be of interest to you. Thanks, –xeno^talk 13:16, 15 April 2010 (UTC)

Mediation

As you may be aware, I volunteered to mediate Wikipedia:Mediation Cabal/Cases/2010-03-26/National-Anarchism. However, we haven't heard from you. Mediation is a non-binding way of figuring out if all of the parties can reach an agreement that makes everyone better off. Participation is voluntary, and does not require you to do anything, nor does it bind you to any agreement. If you don't like how mediation proceeds, you can quit at any time without any repircussions at all. Would you be interested in participating? Hipocrite (talk) 14:28, 19 April 2010 (UTC)

Disambiguation link notification for July 3

Hi. Thank you for your recent edits. Wikipedia appreciates your help. We noticed though that when you edited Kamiriithu Community Education and Cultural Centre, you added a link pointing to the disambiguation page Autochthonous (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.

Speedy deletion nomination of Unitary urbanism

If this is the first article that you have created, you may want to read the guide to writing your first article.

You may want to consider using the Article Wizard to help you create articles.

A tag has been placed on Unitary urbanism requesting that it be speedily deleted from Wikipedia. This has been done under section G12 of the criteria for speedy deletion, because the article or image appears to be a clear copyright infringement. This article or image appears to be a direct copy from http://www.jahsonic.com/ConstantNieuwenhuys.html. For legal reasons, we cannot accept copyrighted text or images borrowed from other web sites or printed material, and as a consequence, your addition will most likely be deleted. You may use external websites 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 modify it — then you must verify that externally by one of the processes explained at Wikipedia:Donating copyrighted materials. If you are not the owner of the external website or image but have permission from that owner, see Wikipedia:Requesting copyright permission. You might want to look at Wikipedia's policies and guidelines for more details, or ask a question here.

If you think this page should not be deleted for this reason, you may contest the nomination by visiting the page and clicking the button labelled "Click here to contest this speedy deletion". This will give you the opportunity to explain why you believe the page should not be deleted. However, be aware that once a page is tagged for speedy deletion, it may be removed without delay. Please do not remove the speedy deletion tag from the page yourself, but do not hesitate to add information in line with Wikipedia's policies and guidelines.

File permission problem with File:Kate and joes day 003.jpg

Thanks for uploading File:Kate and joes day 003.jpg, which you've attributed to evoL Psychogeographyx for the Antisystemic Library, http://antisystemic.org/jpg. I noticed that while you provided a valid copyright licensing tag, there is no proof that the creator of the file has agreed to release it under the given license.

If you are the copyright holder for this media entirely yourself but have previously published it elsewhere (especially online), please either

• make a note permitting reuse under the CC-BY-SA or another acceptable free license (see this list) at the site of the original publication; or
• Send an email from an address associated with the original publication to permissions-en@wikimedia.org, stating your ownership of the material and your intention to publish it under a free license. You can find a sample permission letter here. If you take this step, add {{OTRS pending}} to the file description page to prevent premature deletion.

If you did not create it entirely yourself, please ask the person who created the file to take one of the two steps listed above, or if the owner of the file has already given their permission to you via email, please forward that email to permissions-en@wikimedia.org.

If you believe the media meets the criteria at Wikipedia:Non-free content, use a tag such as {{non-free fair use}} or one of the other tags listed at Wikipedia:File copyright tags#Fair use, and add a rationale justifying the file's use on the article or articles where it is included. See Wikipedia:File copyright tags for the full list of copyright tags that you can use.

If you have uploaded other files, consider checking that you have provided evidence that their copyright owners have agreed to license their works under the tags you supplied, too.

Proposed deletion of File:LARC-Antisystemic-Library.jpeg

The file File:LARC-Antisystemic-Library.jpeg has been proposed for deletion because of the following concern:

unused, low-res, no obvious use

While all constructive contributions to Wikipedia are appreciated, pages may be deleted for any of several reasons.

You may prevent the proposed deletion by removing the {{proposed deletion/dated files}} notice, but please explain why in your edit summary or on the file's talk page.

Please consider addressing the issues raised. Removing {{proposed deletion/dated files}} will stop the proposed deletion process, but other deletion processes exist. In particular, the speedy deletion process can result in deletion without discussion, and files for discussion allows discussion to reach consensus for deletion.

This bot DID NOT nominate any file(s) for deletion; please refer to the page history of each individual file for details. Thanks, FastilyBot (talk) 01:00, 18 March 2020 (UTC)

Deaths in Police custody/ Killings by law enforcement

Hi Paki.tv, I saw your message on my talk page. Is the Lists of killings by law enforcement officers in the United States the "killings on law enforcement page" you are referring? If so, I don't think that this page should be merged with Death in custody, as the two pages have a very different scope, format, and scale. Not all deaths occurring in police custody can be classified as killings by law enforcement, and not all persons killed by law enforcement are in custody when they are killed. They may be pedestrians struck by a police vehicle during a chase, for example. Also, there are dozens of pages connected to the Lists of killings by law enforcement officers in the United States page, and they are all list-class pages with hundreds of killings organized chronologically in tables. I think that the Death in custody page is a good place for an overview of police killings/deaths in custody from a global perspective, providing links to pages that are geographically specific. What are you hoping to see happen with the page?

I added a "see also" link to the Lists of killings by law enforcement officers in the United States page in the United States section of Death in Custody, but then I saw that there was already a link in the main See Also section. If you'd rather not have it linked in both places, feel free to undo my edit.

Notice of edit warring noticeboard discussion

Hello. This message is being sent to inform you that there is currently a discussion involving you at Wikipedia:Administrators' noticeboard/Edit warring regarding a possible violation of Wikipedia's policy on edit warring. Thank you. Mujinga (talk) 14:56, 8 December 2021 (UTC)

Hello Paki.tv. You've been warned per the outcome of the edit warring complaint about the London Action Resource Centre. You may be blocked if you revert this article again without getting a prior consensus for your change on the article talk page. Evidently some disputes about this article have been running for more than ten years. The steps of WP:Dispute resolution are open to you. EdJohnston (talk) 21:16, 10 December 2021 (UTC)

You have been blocked from editing for a period of 48 hours for edit warring, as you did at London Action Resource Centre. Once the block has expired, you are welcome to make useful contributions.

During a dispute, you should first try to discuss controversial changes and seek consensus. If that proves unsuccessful, you are encouraged to seek dispute resolution, and in some cases it may be appropriate to request page protection.

If you think there are good reasons for being unblocked, please read the guide to appealing blocks, then add the following text below the block notice on your talk page: {{unblock|reason=Your reason here ~~~~}}.

You have continued to revert at London Action Resource Centre after being warned per a report at WP:AN3. See above. EdJohnston (talk) 19:29, 11 December 2021 (UTC)

User:Paki.tv, this is your last chance. If you revert again at London Action Resource Centre you may be indefinitely blocked. The only way you will be able to restore the disputed paragraphs is if you can get a prior consensus in your favor on the article talk page. EdJohnston (talk) 04:11, 18 December 2021 (UTC)

Cybertease moved to draftspace

An article you recently created, Cybertease, is not suitable 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. — rsjaffe 🗣️ 02:32, 25 May 2022 (UTC)

Concern regarding Draft:Cybertease

Hello, Paki.tv. This is a bot-delivered message letting you know that Draft:Cybertease, a page you created, has not been edited in at least 5 months. Drafts that have not been edited for six months may be deleted, so if you wish to retain the page, please edit it again or request that it be moved to your userspace.

Your draft article, Draft:Cybertease

Hello, Paki.tv. It has been over six months since you last edited the Articles for Creation submission or draft page you started, "Cybertease".

In accordance with our policy that Wikipedia is not for the indefinite hosting of material deemed unsuitable for the encyclopedia mainspace, the draft has been nominated for deletion. If you plan on working on it further, or editing it to address the issues raised if it was declined, simply and remove the {{db-afc}}, {{db-draft}}, or {{db-g13}} code.

If your submission has already been deleted by the time you get there, and you wish to retrieve it, you can request its undeletion by following the instructions at this link. An administrator will, in most cases, restore the submission so you can continue to work on it.
