Saw an Albanian throwing a tantrum here. I thus quickly checked the Albania article; has someone been polishing it to make Albania gleam? Certainly many edits have come in. I have been slack with Wikipedia for some months now. Certainly some of the stuff I added to the Albanian page has been chopped. I am going to remedy this, though haven't got time right now.

PS: Have you ever seen the TV series "Red Dwarf"?
Kidding aside, just in case you may not recall, the show featured a certain cat species that, due to the lack of humans (we had all died in a terrible accident) had become the dominant species. Also due to the cat's fond memories of their former human masters, the cats had evolved into humanoid creatures. The last remaining humanoid-cat was played by this black guy who was really into his wardrobe, a "cool-cat" you might say. Might you recall? Scott P. ( talk) 04:55, 4 May 2017 (UTC)
Just sent you a third email about the "Turkish Camel." Ever see a Turkish Camel wrestling match? Unlike a bullfight, where the animal must typically die at the hands of the surprisingly more intelligent matador, Turkish Camel Wrestling matches typically end up with both Camel Wrestlers still able to live to actually wrestle another day. Interesting but messy business, especially for those with front row seats! In my not so humble opinion, the sadistic Turks have the peace loving Spaniards beat hands down on this one. Scott P.

Hey I wanted to create an account and help to improve the following article. I have seen you around a lot so I figured I would ask you. I've seen the Girls' Generation discography is a featured article so I wanted to take it as an example but I'm not sure what the rules are. The Shinee discography page lists all kind of digital download sales and not only album sales and they all have sources so I'm not sure if I'll end up doing something against the rules if I delete all of it.

Thank you for reaching out to me. I thank you for your response, but, I don't think that I even posted properly, as it would appear that the information that I added, was not placed on the site-I just corrected some erroneous information that you had about a cousin of mine, on the page for Diana Ross, the singer. It would seem as if I wanted to be certain that information appeared, there is a lot of work that I would have to do, close to learning another programming language. That is a good thing, as certainly, it does discourage a lot of wanton and inaccurate editing. And this is more of a resource, and less of a comments section on a new site. But, I don't have the energy and time to devote to learning how to contribute. So, my futile contribution is it for me. I wish you all the best, this is a wonderful and worthwhile project. Thanks.

Dr. K, the source (specifically citation 5) that refers to the "Republic of China Yearbook 2014" uses the term "Han Chinese", not "Han Taiwanese" to describe the Han population in Taiwan. I clicked on the source to verify it myself. If you not believe me, you can look it up yourself. Just click citation 5 and read through the YB 2014 PDF and you will find that it uses the term "Han Chinese". This is regarding the Wikipedia page on Taiwan. -- ExGuardianNinja ( talk) 23:27, 7 July 2017 (UTC)
I firmly find myself opposing Future Perfect over the removal of Reliable Sources on Mount Athos. Seems like he is pursuing some POV at expense of Wikipedia's rules. However I shall note that in the one of the summaries on Mount Athos, I have problematically stated that "If you have problems with the sources, then we will find new ones." while was trying to say "If you have problems with the sources, then we will try find new ones to help overcome your concerns." This was an edit mistake and not an attempt by me to legitimize the violation of WP:RS and other Wikipedia rules by Future Perfect. This is not my intention. Have a good day. -- SILENT RESIDENT 17:24, 8 July 2017 (UTC)
If they are in the linked profiles, they are fine in the infobox. It's "verifiable." At the least, you can cite the, vs. remove them (even unnecessary) Rikster2 ( talk) 22:37, 9 July 2017 (UTC)
If they are in the linked profiles, they are fine in the infoboxI am not familiar with that rule, and, in any case, this goes against WP:BURDEN. All information should be cited in the article, as is the case for other articles per WP:RS and WP:V. Also you used rollback to revert my edit and restored the wrong weight of 307 lbs; The edit was made by a blocked account. This is misuse of rollback, which should be used only in cases of clear vandalism; in this case, you actually used rollback to restore vandalism. Please be more careful in the future and use edit-summaries. Dr. K. 23:22, 9 July 2017 (UTC)
Well, I wouldn't have done it if you hadn't completely removed height and weight, which was going overboard.They were unsourced, and I removed them. There was nothing overboard about my removal of unsourced BLP information. As I mentioned above, I did it per WP:BURDEN, so let's not repeat ourselves. References must be added to the relevant facts in the article. I can't see why you follow a rule that says otherwise. What's worse, you create problems for editors who are not familiat with this improper rule in your neck of the woods. Also, rolling back a good-faith edit is improper use of rollback, and rolling back to a vandalised version, is even worse. But I made these points before. I'm not sure why I have to repeat these points so many times. Dr. K. 00:31, 10 July 2017 (UTC)

Has it been determined on Wikipedia the naming of the Byzantine Empire, or whether it should be referred to as the Eastern Roman Empire?

I would like to ask for you input here: Talk:Exo discography. Also I have a question regarding the genre section in the infobox for K-pop groups. Is it enough to add K-pop? The article itself describes the genre as a combination of "Western styles and genres" so I don't think it is necessary to include all kind of genres especially because K-pop groups use like 5 different genres with every release. I'm not interested in getting into conflicts with other editors. I also would like to know if we need a source for the lead section of discography pages if we summarize the overall sales of an artist? I was once told by an admin to include a reliable source but another user says it's ok to count all the sales of the page as long as it's all referenced. In case you are confused about the last part, I'm talking about this.-- Thebestwinter ( talk) 14:29, 3 August 2017 (UTC)

Dr.K., as you probably noticed, the RfC at
Talk:Mount Athos was closed by Winged Blades of Godric who commented on the (obvious) result: that there was no consensus for the proposed inclusion
- the side that supported the flag's inclusion had a slight majority, but this wasn't enough for building a solid consensus, sadly. However, I am delighted that Winged Blades of Godric has, at the same time, acknowledged a very important (but obvious) fact: that there were not any strong grounds to exclude the flag
from the infobox. Those who opposed the flag's inclusion, lacked any strong arguments - some of them didn't even provide any arguments and rather had it linked to ridiculous preconditions and demands.
Yes, it is sad, but at least I am very grateful that a third uninvolved party acknowledged how weak their arguments were, and that the RfC failed only due to lack of consensus. However, Wikipedia has made it clear what can be done in such cases: disputes that cannot be resolved due to lack of consensuses, can be resolved by bringing the cases to dispute resolutions, such as the DRN or RfM.
I am sure you agree that this dispute should have been resolved much sooner, if it weren't for the obsession and tendentious edits of certain editors, however the project allows us to resolve the case with the mediation of third, uninvolved parties which weight on the arguments and strong points of each side, taking in account the sources and the editor's NPOV concerns, and try to build a new consensus. The dispute has not been resolved yet, and currently, the Wikipedia's article about Mount Athos does not reflect on the reality and the indisputable facts. may I ask, what could you suggest me to do? Bring the case to dispute resolution, or give it some time, or just drop it? --❤ SILENT RESIDENT ❤ 19:44, 13 August 2017 (UTC)

Hey I wanted to create an account and help to improve the following article. I have seen you around a lot so I figured I would ask you. I've seen the Girls' Generation discography is a featured article so I wanted to take it as an example but I'm not sure what the rules are. The Shinee discography page lists all kind of digital download sales and not only album sales and they all have sources so I'm not sure if I'll end up doing something against the rules if I delete all of it. I would be thankful for some tips. -- 2A02:8108:1440:2870:3C9F:62ED:DD07:51DF ( talk) 16:03, 14 June 2017 (UTC)
I cited you another FR Wikipedia article and | Google maps say so too. Only a very small portion inside YUL is called Chemin de la Côte-Vertu. With my reason, please stop removing accurate information.-- A the wikier ( talk) 00:16, 23 June 2017 (UTC)
An anon left me a message regarding problems with Greek Super Cup here. I had reverted his unexplained content removal. I copied most of it to [[talk: Greek Super Cup#Article would seem to need cleanup. I also found the the only footnote is DL which I tagged. If you have time (snicker), please take a look? I noticed the Greek article is semi-ed and has a refimprove (or equiv tag) Cheers Jim1138 ( talk) 19:22, 23 June 2017 (UTC)
Thank you for reaching out to me. I thank you for your response, but, I don't think that I even posted properly, as it would appear that the information that I added, was not placed on the site-I just corrected some erroneous information that you had about a cousin of mine, on the page for Diana Ross, the singer. It would seem as if I wanted to be certain that information appeared, there is a lot of work that I would have to do, close to learning another programming language. That is a good thing, as certainly, it does discourage a lot of wanton and inaccurate editing. And this is more of a resource, and less of a comments section on a new site. But, I don't have the energy and time to devote to learning how to contribute. So, my futile contribution is it for me. I wish you all the best, this is a wonderful and worthwhile project. Thanks.

Dr. K, the source (specifically citation 5) that refers to the "Republic of China Yearbook 2014" uses the term "Han Chinese", not "Han Taiwanese" to describe the Han population in Taiwan. I clicked on the source to verify it myself. If you not believe me, you can look it up yourself. Just click citation 5 and read through the YB 2014 PDF and you will find that it uses the term "Han Chinese". This is regarding the Wikipedia page on Taiwan. -- ExGuardianNinja ( talk) 23:27, 7 July 2017 (UTC)
I firmly find myself opposing Future Perfect over the removal of Reliable Sources on Mount Athos. Seems like he is pursuing some POV at expense of Wikipedia's rules. However I shall note that in the one of the summaries on Mount Athos, I have problematically stated that "If you have problems with the sources, then we will find new ones." while was trying to say "If you have problems with the sources, then we will try find new ones to help overcome your concerns." This was an edit mistake and not an attempt by me to legitimize the violation of WP:RS and other Wikipedia rules by Future Perfect. This is not my intention. Have a good day. -- SILENT RESIDENT 17:24, 8 July 2017 (UTC)
If they are in the linked profiles, they are fine in the infobox. It's "verifiable." At the least, you can cite the, vs. remove them (even unnecessary) Rikster2 ( talk) 22:37, 9 July 2017 (UTC)
If they are in the linked profiles, they are fine in the infoboxI am not familiar with that rule, and, in any case, this goes against WP:BURDEN. All information should be cited in the article, as is the case for other articles per WP:RS and WP:V. Also you used rollback to revert my edit and restored the wrong weight of 307 lbs; The edit was made by a blocked account. This is misuse of rollback, which should be used only in cases of clear vandalism; in this case, you actually used rollback to restore vandalism. Please be more careful in the future and use edit-summaries. Dr. K. 23:22, 9 July 2017 (UTC)
Well, I wouldn't have done it if you hadn't completely removed height and weight, which was going overboard.They were unsourced, and I removed them. There was nothing overboard about my removal of unsourced BLP information. As I mentioned above, I did it per WP:BURDEN, so let's not repeat ourselves. References must be added to the relevant facts in the article. I can't see why you follow a rule that says otherwise. What's worse, you create problems for editors who are not familiat with this improper rule in your neck of the woods. Also, rolling back a good-faith edit is improper use of rollback, and rolling back to a vandalised version, is even worse. But I made these points before. I'm not sure why I have to repeat these points so many times. Dr. K. 00:31, 10 July 2017 (UTC)

Sorry to bother you, but I thought you might know the answer to this conundrum.
Has it been determined on Wikipedia the naming of the Byzantine Empire, or whether it should be referred to as the Eastern Roman Empire?
An editor that refers to themselves as "defender of the actual legitimacy of the Roman Empire in the east after the fall of the western part", has returned to changing Byzantine to Eastern Roman after their personal attack directed at me back in 31 October 2016. -- Kansas Bear ( talk) 22:10, 31 July 2017 (UTC)

I would like to ask for you input here: Talk:Exo discography. Also I have a question regarding the genre section in the infobox for K-pop groups. Is it enough to add K-pop? The article itself describes the genre as a combination of "Western styles and genres" so I don't think it is necessary to include all kind of genres especially because K-pop groups use like 5 different genres with every release. I'm not interested in getting into conflicts with other editors. I also would like to know if we need a source for the lead section of discography pages if we summarize the overall sales of an artist? I was once told by an admin to include a reliable source but another user says it's ok to count all the sales of the page as long as it's all referenced. In case you are confused about the last part, I'm talking about this.-- Thebestwinter ( talk) 14:29, 3 August 2017 (UTC)

Dr.K., as you probably noticed, the RfC at
Talk:Mount Athos was closed by Winged Blades of Godric who commented on the (obvious) result: that there was no consensus for the proposed inclusion
- the side that supported the flag's inclusion had a slight majority, but this wasn't enough for building a solid consensus, sadly. However, I am delighted that Winged Blades of Godric has, at the same time, acknowledged a very important (but obvious) fact: that there were not any strong grounds to exclude the flag
from the infobox. Those who opposed the flag's inclusion, lacked any strong arguments - some of them didn't even provide any arguments and rather had it linked to ridiculous preconditions and demands.
Yes, it is sad, but at least I am very grateful that a third uninvolved party acknowledged how weak their arguments were, and that the RfC failed only due to lack of consensus. However, Wikipedia has made it clear what can be done in such cases: disputes that cannot be resolved due to lack of consensuses, can be resolved by bringing the cases to dispute resolutions, such as the DRN or RfM.
I am sure you agree that this dispute should have been resolved much sooner, if it weren't for the obsession and tendentious edits of certain editors, however the project allows us to resolve the case with the mediation of third, uninvolved parties which weight on the arguments and strong points of each side, taking in account the sources and the editor's NPOV concerns, and try to build a new consensus. The dispute has not been resolved yet, and currently, the Wikipedia's article about Mount Athos does not reflect on the reality and the indisputable facts. may I ask, what could you suggest me to do? Bring the case to dispute resolution, or give it some time, or just drop it? --❤ SILENT RESIDENT ❤ 19:44, 13 August 2017 (UTC)

I'm trying to improve the following article: Monsta X discography and I was hoping you could answer one of my questions. It's about the music video section. I've tried to look up the guidelines for the discographies but I'm still not sure what to do. K-pop groups have so many music videos and special clips etc. especially this group so do we have to include every music video an artist has released or only the music videos for the title tracks?-- Thebestwinter ( talk) 13:09, 30 August 2017 (UTC)

Take a look at Mhhossein asking Oshwah how to sockpuppet report Dr. K, and then Wikipedia:Sockpuppet investigations/Icewhiz. So in short - he wanted to report anyone (starting with you, then reporting me after he didn't manage due to a page block for past vandalism) who disagreed with him on Ali Khamenei. I'm sure there is some sort of rule against such groundless behavior which might be worthwhile pursuing after the Sockpuppet investigation comes up as groundless - I'm away travelling the next few days, so I won't be on top of this, but might be able to chime in during the evenings (assuming I have wifi for my laptop).
