Wikipedia talk:Articles for deletion/International Institute of Management
Welcome!
Hello Mukadderat/Talk archive 1, and welcome to Wikipedia! Thank you for your contributions. I hope you like the place and decide to stay. Here are a few good links for newcomers:
I hope you enjoy editing here and being a Wikipedian! Please sign your name on talk pages using four tildes (~~~~); this will automatically produce your name and the date. If you have any questions, check out Wikipedia:Where to ask a question or ask me on my talk page. Again, welcome! - FrancisTyers 12:01, 3 January 2006 (UTC)
I would like to express my thanks to all the good people who spent their valuable time time and effort working on my (failed) RfA voting. Especially for those who actually voted to support me :). Lets move on and make together our Wikipedia an even greater place abakharev 09:59, 12 January 2006 (UTC)
Hi Mukadderat- Thanks for your support on my RfA. If I can be of any service please leave me a message -- rogerd 01:42, 13 January 2006 (UTC)
This is hardly a new problem, and there's nothing to clarify. See User talk:Peter S.#Wikipedia:Articles for deletion/Aladin (2nd nomination). Johnleemk | Talk 03:50, 18 January 2006 (UTC)
Yup that was what I meant, I just didn't know a page existed for it on wikipedia :-) Grandwazir 03:42, 21 January 2006 (UTC) [1]
Concerning your comment, "Please leave your mentoring tone to your sons" at Wikipedia:Articles for deletion/Aladin (magician). Wikipedia policy is no personal attacks. Please read WP:NPA. If you believe that your stand has merit, you should be able to make your arguments without resorting to personal comments. Elonka 07:08, 22 January 2006 (UTC)
Give or take, I don't care about "notability" as a criteria, you are correct. I also don't want wikipedia used as an advertising service, so WP:AUTO and WP:SPAM (if there is a policy like that) are far more important to me than the average. Hipocrite - «Talk» 21:59, 23 January 2006 (UTC)
Some of the additions you have been requesting need to be proofread and wikified. Cheers, Ghirla | talk 11:29, 14 February 2006 (UTC)
Hi, you started the article on Sa'd al-Din and mentioned the book "Crown of Histories". Do you know where I can find a copy of this book in English? I need the book to use it as a source for one of my articles. Thanks. -- Candide, or Optimism 07:01, 21 February 2006 (UTC)
Hi, thanks for your voting on my RFA. It has finished with the result 88/14/9, and I am promoted. I am really overwhelmed with the amount of support I have got. With some of you we have edited many articles as a team, with some I had bitter arguments in the past, some of you I consider to be living legends of Wikipedia and some nicks I in my ignorance never heard before. I love you all and I am really grateful to you.
If you feel I can help you or Wikipedia as a human, as an editor or with my newly acquired cleaning tools, then just ask and I will be happy to assist. If you will feel that I do not live up to your expectation and renegade on my promises, please contact me. Maybe it was not a malice but just ignorance or a short temper. Thank you very much, once more! abakharev 07:34, 24 February 2006 (UTC)

Hi, I think it would be a better idea to cover al-Khwarizmi's work in one article, or else we risk ending up with 4+ stubs instead of 1 featured article. — Ruud 22:21, 26 March 2006 (UTC)
My apologies as well, I hope this is just a case of miscommunication. Please leave a message on my talk page if you are interested in resuming (or starting over) this discussion. — Ruud 23:25, 26 March 2006 (UTC)
Your comment on
here "Why didn't you tell this a day ago to Noble Eagle SWATJester who is "really getting sick" of people who don't like American propaganda?" is very close to being a personal attack. I'll ask you to kindly refactor it. Comment on the deletion, not the editor.

Hello! Could you please explain which part you want to be backed up with sources - the fact that some people have these opinions about Croats, or the fact that some Croats consider these opinions Croatophobic?-- 85.187.44.131 19:33, 18 May 2006 (UTC)
Thanks for the link. In fact, I searched for the link but did not know the spelling exactly, and so could not link. The character of Nasreddin is quite well known in West Bengal mainly thanks to the work by Satyajit Ray. However, I did not know the exact origin of Nasiruddin, though guessed ir would be somewhere in Turkey. I just added the info in the main article Satyajit Ray, along with a link. Regards.-- Dwaipayan ( talk) 20:08, 5 June 2006 (UTC)
<Sigh!> You have obviously never had to deal with a loved one after an attack of coulrophobia ... having those pictures of clowns on that page may keep some people from ever using Wikipedia again ... or recommending it to other people.
Those images already appear on other pages, but as mentioned on the discussion page, having them on the main page is incredibly insensitive to people with a genuinely crippling and debilitating condition ... there is nothing funny about a fear of clowns, especially after you've seen someone become hysterical in a theater when they show an advertisement for the circus. (I still have a scar on my arm from when they grabbed me.) -- Dennette 18:00, 30 June 2006 (UTC)
Hi Mukadderat! Are you -sort of- satisfied with my answer on the talk page of the article Pontian Greek Genocide. May I put the stuff back to the article (rather in the form of a footnote, it will be better that way)? By the way, in case there was a misunderstanding, one remark you made leads me to think that there was, I am Turkish:) Cretanforever
Moved into proper place: Talk:Polish style pickled cucumber#Article title. Mukadderat 15:46, 28 July 2006 (UTC)
I won't revert any more, if you insist it's a massacre. However, I must point you to WP:NPOV. Chacor 03:23, 17 August 2006 (UTC)
In the spirit of fairness a thought: Those interested in using Wiki as a way to memoralize seemingly obscure Islamic characters of uncertain, at least extremely difficult to verify, significance, though seemingly important to some and perhaps more Islamicists, it isn't wise to be tarnish by attacking popular American Jewish holiday characters by summarily voting for their deletion. In the West, there is a notable saying: "People who live in glass houses shouldn't throw stones." Just a friendly hello a bit of advise. :>)
And who is going to do it? You? What do you know about the topiv? Anything?
And I sign my name--so you know who I am.
Dear Mukadderat I appreciate your suggestion. But can you give me the grounds of the suggestion? Also, WHO and HOW will the MERGE be done? PS: The History is that of the Book & Title only--not the CONTENT of these. Do you understand me? Thanks, --- Ludvikus 01:25, 13 September 2006 (UTC)
Hello. I'm taking this up here because I have a strong preference for us to stop reverting each other, and I can't tell if you've read the Manual of Style for Disambiguation Pages or not. It does seem that we're talking past each other. Please, if in what follows I misinterpret any part of MOS:DP, or if you consider Peer to be a special case requiring departure from the guidelines, let me know.
I take your point that the first line was incorrect, thank you. However, I prefer to fix it in the classic manner ("Peer may refer to"), which has the benefit of not violating other parts of the MOS:DP.
In particular:
Order of entries has an example that illustrates what I was aiming for. I agree with you that the goal isn't to have a list of every article that has peer in the title. Instead, the goal is to have a list of articles someone might have been looking for when they typed in peer, and to make it easy to scan the list of links for the correct article.
As for specific issues concerning Peer itself:
Thanks. I'll wait a day or so, and if I don't hear a follow-up from you, I'll revert Peer back to its earlier format (which I do believe is closer to the preferred style for DAB pages), but with the first line corrected per your annotation. Sanguinity 21:27, 13 September 2006 (UTC)
he was expelled not deleted, he was a high school studentm not college, and he is trying to contest it in court, but its a constitutional case, since Texas doesnt protect gays from discrimination. and even if it was perfectly ok to expell him, it made the news which makes it notable it got national media coverage, i ask you to change your vote to keep Qrc2006 04:37, 15 September 2006 (UTC)
In my opinion the erection index is an important concept to document so I am working on reintroducing a corrected page with edits. Your objection on the deletion log "no verifiability" does not make sense to me. This term is explicitly used in two references. There may be a question of what references are reasonable or not to use, but when a term is appearing in print in well read journals with explanations that are essentially the same the claim of "no verifiability" appears to make no sense. Do you have a specific exception?
Sorry this is awkward. I am pursuing dispute resolution as per documentation. -- M0llusk 05:34, 16 September 2006 (UTC)
Regarding you're vote for the deletion of James Barnett I think that you should reconsider, the page has many links to the mainstream media where he is mentioned, this clearly makes him fall under the WP:BIO guidelines, "Persons achieving renown or notoriety for their involvement in newsworthy events," please reconsider. Cholga 17:26, 19 September 2006 (UTC)
Don't try to get funny with me. -- Street Scholar 16:27, 23 September 2006 (UTC)
That seems like a somewhat biased page title, see WP:NPOV. I think that's why I redirected it... plus it was an orphan article that few people would see because of the lack of incoming links. But I felt like it could be better covered at an article whose title wasn't inherently tilted towards one viewpoint. -- W.marsh 04:13, 25 September 2006 (UTC)
it sounds like we agree more than disagree on this topic. we seem to agree that only two articles need to survive. if you favour Water crisis and China water crisis, i can concur with you. regards Anlace 05:17, 25 September 2006 (UTC)
Why did you create a different cat for people of ottoman empire? demographics means the same thing... There can be thousands of listings under people of ottoman empire :)) What about the women of ottoman empire, I saw that it was AfDed some time ago, i think a different name would be more appropriate.. Such category names generally get deleted.. Just letting you know :)) Baristarim 05:01, 29 September 2006 (UTC)
Howdy, you have recently voted delete in this AfD with concerns about the article choatic structure and difficulties to verify. The article has undergone a substantial rewrite since you voiced your concerns and I would like to invite you to take a look at the new version. I have restructued the article, adding references to over 80% of the content and deleting alot of the vague or hard to reference items. It is still a work in progress and I would appreciate any input on what more could be done to possibly sway you to reconsider your position. Thanks and I appreciate your time. Agne 06:43, 10 October 2006 (UTC)
Please refrain from undoing other people's edits repeatedly, as you are doing in Pontic Greek Genocide. If you continue, you may be blocked from editing Wikipedia under the three-revert rule, which states that nobody may revert a single page more than three times in 24 hours. (Note: this also means editing the page to reinsert an old edit. If the effect of your actions is to revert back, it qualifies as a revert.) Thank you. •NikoSilver• 16:25, 12 October 2006 (UTC)
Your recent edit to Bulgarian (slang) ( diff) was reverted by an automated bot that attempts to recognize and repair vandalism to Wikipedia articles. If the bot reverted a legitimate edit, please accept my humble creator's apologies – if you bring it to the attention of the bot's owner, we may be able to improve its behavior. Click here for frequently asked questions about the bot and this warning. // AntiVandalBot 09:34, 16 October 2006 (UTC)
Hey Mukadderat, thanks a lot for supporting me in my recent RfA. It succeeded, and I am very grateful to all of you. If you ever need help with anything, please don't hesitate to ask. Also, feel free point out any mistakes I make! Thanks again, — Khoi khoi 04:49, 21 October 2006 (UTC)
Hey Mukadderat, I offer some books from "Halikarnas Balıkçısı", for roots of Zeybek dance. Regards Mustafa Akalp TC 20:57, 3 November 2006 (UTC)
Hey Mukadderat,
I remember you said awhile back at Talk:Pontian Greek Genocide#Misleading googole count:
“ | For example, muslims were moved out of Caucasus (see Muhajir (Caucasus) and in other places, see Muhajir), but no one calls it, eg., " Circassian Genocide" . After that follows a long list of reports. | ” |
As of two days ago, there's a new article called Circassian genocide—and I just wanted to know what your thoughts are on it. Regards, Khoi khoi 08:58, 13 November 2006 (UTC)
