Hello! I'm a bot created by another Wikipedia editor. I wanted to let you know that I removed a link that you recently added to the page Koche Sesame here. I did this because http://www.flickr.com/photos/kabulpublicdiplomacy/sets/72157628232390399/with/6435880313/ is probably inappropriate for an encyclopedia. Instead of linking to an external image, you can find images already available or use the upload wizard if you'd like to add new free content.
We appreciate your help in making Wikipedia better for everyone. If I made a mistake, feel free to undo my edit. If you have any questions, you can ask at the Help desk.
Thank you! -- XLinkBot ( talk) 04:42, 5 December 2011 (UTC)
Welcome to Wikipedia, and thank you for your contributions. Although everyone is welcome to contribute constructively to the encyclopedia, please note that there is a
Manual of Style that should be followed to maintain a consistent, encyclopedic appearance. Deviating from this style, as you did in
International co-productions of Sesame Street, makes articles harder to read. Please take a look at the
welcome page to learn more about contributing to this encyclopedia. Thank you.

Please understand what WP:VANDALism is. Accusations of vandalism (such as [1]) should not be levelled at good-faith edits that you disagree with.
Furthermore, you edit summary asserts not sourced addition which is obviously wrong, and continues but deliberate falsification which violates WP:CIVIL and WP:AGF. If your temper is running too high to edit politely, please step away from the keyboard William M. Connolley ( talk) 14:17, 8 December 2011 (UTC)
You replied on my takl page. Can I draw your attention to the edit notice there, which says: You are welcome to leave messages here. I will reply here (rather than on, say, your user page). Conversely, if I've left a message on your talk page, I'm watching it, so please reply there. Accordingly, I've moved your comment here:
Please see the result of WP:AN3#User:Kiftaan reported by User:PassaMethod (Result: Warned) which contains a warning for you. If you continue to revert on the percentage of Muslims who are Sunni before consensus is reached on the talk page you may be blocked. Thank you, EdJohnston ( talk) 17:10, 11 December 2011 (UTC)
This kind of stuff [4] isn't polite.
First off, since it is a question to a named individual, it belongs on their talk page.
Second, since you're essentially accusing them of WP:SOCKing, you need far more evidence than "you seem to have similar ideas" to make such a claim. And you should make the claim more politely.
I've removed it. Feel free to ask either of them on their talk pages if you must, but I'd advise you not. WP:SPI is that way, if you really think you have a case.

Hi. When you recently edited ANA Commando Brigade, you added a link pointing to the disambiguation page Operations ( 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.

Do not vandalise and edit other people's user pages, including mine. You have gone way too overboard. This is going to be your first and last warning. Mar4d ( talk) 08:16, 24 December 2011 (UTC)
I am not PassaMethod or anyone else but me, as you again accused me of being (without any evidence) here. Accusations of sockpuppetry is not how disagreements are handled here. Ian.thomson ( talk) 15:12, 24 December 2011 (UTC)
Hello. This message is being sent to inform you that there is currently a discussion at Wikipedia:Administrators' noticeboard/Incidents regarding an issue with which you may have been involved. The thread is The user who cried sock. Thank you. Ian.thomson ( talk) 15:34, 24 December 2011 (UTC)
I've noticed that some of this account's edits appear to intentionally distort what sources say, even this one with the summary "according to the sources provided". This kind of distortion is NOT acceptable. I hope that any reviewing admin bears this in mind, in addition to the spurious sockpuppetry claims, should an unblock be requested. I'm having to spend a few hours reviewing old edits... bobrayner ( talk) 21:24, 24 December 2011 (UTC)
Kiftaan ( block log • active blocks • global blocks • contribs • deleted contribs • filter log • creation log • change block settings • unblock • checkuser ( log))
Request reason:
First of all, Happy Christmas! My behaviour in talk pages may be disruptive or annoying to some but my edits to pages are just correcting minor stuff, usually just adding or adjusting images I want every article to have high quality and more meaningful images. I promise to stay away from editing Afghanistan pages or starting disputes over percents, figures and stuff like that, or start SPIs on others even if I know they are socking. My original block was some what unfair, and I was unfamilar with how to defend my self or what action to take to unblock myself. Instead of creating a new account, I should have started a vote process on one of the ANI pages for admins to decide on unblocking me. Most importantly, at that time I was quitting cigarettes and I was coping with this, which like fighting a monster within yourself. Please also see above "My investigation" and notice how another confirmed sockmaster is allowed to use multiple accounts AFTER he was caught red-handed last month [41] [42] [43] using multiple socks. I just feel that I am treated very unfairly.-- Kiftaan ( talk) 06:55, 25 December 2011 (UTC)
Decline reason:
You're not going to get your block lifted by accusing others - see WP:NOTTHEM. As for your repeated sock accusations against others, there is only one legitimate place to discuss that - take it to SPI or shut up about it -- Boing! said Zebedee ( talk) 11:16, 25 December 2011 (UTC)
If you want to make any further unblock requests, please read the guide to appealing blocks first, then use the {{ unblock}} template again. If you make too many unconvincing or disruptive unblock requests, you may be prevented from editing this page until your block has expired. Do not remove this unblock review while you are blocked.
I can only laugh on your ' investigation'. All of your facts are wrong and I'll facilitate you in no way to make you think otherwise since I'm enjoying your current Pakistanophobia. -- lTopGunl ( talk) 19:26, 26 December 2011 (UTC)
