Hi!
You get this message because you are an admin on a Wikimedia wiki.
When someone edits a Wikimedia wiki without being logged in today, we show their IP address. As you may already know, we will not be able to do this in the future. This is a decision by the Wikimedia Foundation Legal department, because norms and regulations for privacy online have changed.
Instead of the IP we will show a masked identity. You as an admin will still be able to access the IP. There will also be a new user right for those who need to see the full IPs of unregistered users to fight vandalism, harassment and spam without being admins. Patrollers will also see part of the IP even without this user right. We are also working on better tools to help.
If you have not seen it before, you can read more on Meta. If you want to make sure you don’t miss technical changes on the Wikimedia wikis, you can subscribe to the weekly technical newsletter.
We have two suggested ways this identity could work. We would appreciate your feedback on which way you think would work best for you and your wiki, now and in the future. You can let us know on the talk page. You can write in your language. The suggestions were posted in October and we will decide after 17 January.
Thank you. / Johan (WMF)

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.

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)

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[1]
who knows how many hours I've wasted on ridiculous talk page blather from ideology-motivated editors[2]
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[3]
the fact that this particular matter is so aggressively highlighted in the lead over all else—your preference—is a big read flag.[4]
Bold and italicize all you like, [https://en.wikipedia.org/?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.[5]
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.[6]
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.

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?

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)

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.

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.

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)
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).

Участник Muhmmadaht удаляет инфу о хазарейцах из статьи несмотря на то, что я привожу источники.

@ 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)

Hello Ymblanter!
I saw that you blocked the IP 2804:14D:5C87:8A5E:99C3:E5F:678B:5A40. Last year this IP insanely harassed me (I had to hide it - the text is in Portuguese) behind a pretense of "Good Faith" (I was editing the article Rayssa Leal, with several sources, and the user basically said that I was wrong, lied and even threatened that I could be expelled from Wikipedia for "committing crimes" (sourcing every sentence from a reliable source)) and I even attempted to send it to the Notice Board, but it affected my mental well being so much that I couldn't proceed against him. Well, I'm writing it now because at the time he also used the IP 177.142.131.180: its last edition is from August and might even have changed ownership, but I thought that I should let it here as a note and I hope that I will never suffer the same thing while editing the Wikipedia again. In the past the only bizarre that I went on good faith was this. Thanks, Erick Soares3 ( talk) 19:23, 18 April 2022 (UTC)

Hi. I see you moved
Dovhenke (Izium Raion) to
Dovhenke, Izium Raion, Kharkiv Oblast, saying that the name was imprecise. However, the name seems precise enough for
the article on Ukrainian Wikipedia. Do you know of another Izium Raion, or another Dovhenke within Izium Raion, which would make the shorter name ambiguous? —

Please ensure you are familiar with Wikipedia's policies and guidelines, and please do not continue to make edits that appear disruptive. Continued disruptive editing may result in loss of editing privileges. Thank you.--BLKFTR ( tlk2meh) 14:42, 27 April 2022 (UTC)
@
Ymblanter: GCB (& all of us) need to adhere to WP:TALKOFFTOPIC. That talk page is for discussing how to make that article better, or to delete it. It's not for discuss content or issues of OTHER articles, which is what GCB's comment is. The WP:TALKOFFTOPIC comment is WP:DISRUPTIVE to that page & gives the appearance of WP:CANVASSING.
That said, do you mind explaining to me what you mean when you say to me, "I do not think you are in a position to edit-war at this page." GCB & I both revert 1 time, so if GCB isn't edit-waring, then neither am I, right? Wiki rules do apply to all of us equally right? We're all in the same and equal "position" to edit, to collapse off-topic comments, etc, aren't we?

Hi Ymblanter
I note this edit
I do have understanding of the issue, User:Andrewa|Andrew, after having created a significant portion of all the pages on Ukrainian localities here. It was very nice of you to throw a baseless accusation and close the discussion so that I can not respond.
and that it was immediately reverted by yourself.
The initial way to respond, of course, is on user talk pages. As an admin yourself, you should know that.
You ask Who cares? I do. And looking at your user page, you are one of the very last people I would wish to disparage.
But do you still think that it must be Niu-York per WP:UAPLACE (my emphasis)? I'm keen to see your response. Perhaps, as you seem to suggest, I have that wrong. Andrewa ( talk) 23:50, 1 June 2022 (UTC)
Hi there Ymblanter, hope you're doing well. Would you mind giving us your input as a third opinion on Talk:2020_Ghazanchetsots_Cathedral_shelling#Saadat_Kadyrova discussion? I wanted to request it in WP:THIRD, but I doubt most of the reviewers are Russian speaking. The discussion is about a statement that was said during Sunday Evening with Vladimir Solovyov.
I believe there are decent sources to merit its inclusion [10], [11], and even a passage from the book of political expert Evgeny Yanovich [12]. And that statement was in the article for a very long time to begin with. My opponent removed it couple of days ago [13], stating it's not a response from Azerbaijan. I suggested moving it to the International section, even tho the original source itself states she's Azerbaijani. I think we've reached a brick wall in the discussion and I don't want it to get even lengthier, so I would greatly appreciate if you could provide your opinion.

Hi. Can you please take a look into this particular case so that it won't escalate further? Basically, there is this user who insists on adding FRINGE info to various articles that I've already debunked. They are backing up their edits with sources, but they are using primary sources only, and the sources are also unreliable, plus they are fringe themselves. And the user's interpretation of the sources is an improper synthesis. I would like your feedback on this matter and whether this issue can be resolved diplomatically or not. Thank you in advance.

Hey Ymblanter, I just saw your revert on Kalynivske, Kherson Oblast and I wanted to know, what's not good about the edit? I realize now that the date formatting is wrong, which was a mistake on my part, but what was wrong with the rest of the edit, like the see also section? Per MOS:SEEALSO, I think having the List of renamed cities in Ukraine or Russian occupation of Kherson Oblast included are both useful and relevant. I personally think these sort of pages benefit from having a see also section but I'm open to discussing it. Also, you took out the translation template from the Kalynivske, Kherson Oblast page but I think it should've been kept. While the Ukrainian-language page might also be a stub, it mostly contains information (which is sourced) that's not present in the English article (the only section on it is about the town's history, which isn't present on the English page. Per the Expand language template documentation, it should be used when "English Wikipedia articles...can be improved by a translation from a foreign-language Wikipedia," which I think is the case here.
I think having an "Administrative status" section is also beneficial to that and other articles but let me know what you think. I changed transportation into a header since that's the sole substance of the body of the section and since most comprehensive location pages have them as separate sections ( Kyiv, just one example) but I'm open to talking about it too. I wasn't sure if the template for the population estimate was one that stayed updated so I changed it to past tense but if it does get updated fairly frequently, I think putting it in present tense makes sense. I think that's all the parts of my edits but if I left something out feel free to tell me. Also let me know what your thoughts are on this. Thanks!!!!! :)

Hello, Ymblanter,
I came across some articles tagged for speedy deletion as hoaxes, CSD G3, and found a couple ( Draft:Scott's (department store) and Draft:Snoe Corporation) that were recently edited by User:TucsonMager79 that had been created by User:SagoShader, an editor you blocked.

The "main article" that was deleted from the section was called "Administrative divisions of the Luhansk People's Republic", whereas the main article that you restored to the section is called "Administrative divisions of Luhansk Oblast".

The biography edits I reverted broke multiple rules in Biographies of living persons editing including Neutral point of view and other biography rules involving neutrality and bias, other edits I reverted were vandalism and changes to my own edits which excludes them from being considered edit warring, “experienced users” reverting my edit doesn’t mean the edits I reverted are excluded from rule breaking or my reversions are considered edit warring

I've noticed this wording on a lot of Ukrainian city pages concerning the rearrangement of administration that from an English perception I think it unclear, and unintentionally misleading; it usually goes:
"The area of [name of former municipality] was merged into [name of raion]."
On every page I see this on it gives the impression that the urban-type settlement, village or rural settlement is no longer part of the municipality in which it is still located, which is the opposite of the truth. Also, the word "merge" in English implies that the municipality has been abolished and its competencies transfered back to the raion, which also isn't the case.
What I'd suggest on these pages to avoid confusion as it concerns the reform of local administration is that any mention of pre-2020 arrangment come at the end of any section on local administration. Further, I'd really just leave out any mentions of "merge" on the pages of settlements without council, altogether. That should be left for the hromada pages or former municipal pages. Finally, when it is mentioned, at all, it should be worded simply to say that municiaplities were re-subordinated to raion councils as opposed to "merge", which, again, implies abolition of the local government.
Let me know what you think of all of this. Criticalthinker ( talk) 20:19, 5 September 2022 (UTC)
It understandable when explained, but as written, it's confusing from an English-language perspective when plainly reading it. The level of precision makes it less clear, in fact. We use "municipality" generally to mean a settlement with local government. The wording you use on these pages when read plainly for an English-speaker makes it sound as if these local governments/councils have been abolished and are now governed directly from the Raion council/government. The precision also doesn't seem important when a municipality and community/hromada don't have different competencies/responsibilities; it's just a renaming of the base units of local government. But, again, it really doesn't make sense to explain this on pages for communities without their own local governments, at all. Unless a settlement has changed hands between municipalities/hromadas, the 2020 reform of local government on these locality pages doesn't even need to be mentioned. All we need to know is which hromada the locality belongs to; change of status of a hromada only needs to be mentioned on the main hromada's page. I do appreciate all of your work, but I'm just sharing with you how confusing this is from an English-language perspective on English Language wikipedia. The 2020 local government reform has its own article, I think; it almost doesn't even need to be mentioned on a hromada's article, honestly, and really only relevant on a raion or oblast article. -- Criticalthinker ( talk) 08:02, 6 September 2022 (UTC)
It seems I may have confused myself about who exactly has been doing this, but I thought I saw that you'd create this format for these articles. But it also appears that a Fixer88 may have been formatting these articles like this? Anyway, Nova Kakhovka is an example of what I'm speaking of. Instead of "The area of Nova Kakhovka Municipality was merged into Kakhovka Raion." a clearer sentence would simply be that "The territory of Nova Kakhovka city of oblast significance became part of Nova Kakhovka urban hromada." The mention of cities of oblast/district significance being subordinated to raions need only be mentioned on the associated raion pages. Anyway, just something to think about. I'd love to discuss this with a larger group, but not knowing how this started or who started it, I wasn't sure who to contact. -- Criticalthinker ( talk) 10:13, 7 September 2022 (UTC)

Hey, I thought that you might know this. Can you send me a link to the laws of municipal council compositions and elections in general, and then the law that corresponds to Moscow and its lower municipal councils of deputies, specifically? I'm looking to updated the Administrative divisions of Moscow article, and need some proper sourcing to do so; most of the links of the page look to be dead. Mostly, I'm trying to figure out the electoral system used for these councils and mayors and such, but haven't found a good, English-language source describing the basics of their elections. I'd also like to finally be able to write about the difference in municipal divisions of Moscow, as it appears that there are three different kinds (because of the annexation outside the pre-2012 boundaries) with different powers. Criticalthinker ( talk) 22:29, 12 September 2022 (UTC)
That will be helpful. Though, specifically for Moscow, I'm now seeing the law for reform of its territorial divisions was a Moscow City Duma law in 2011 or 2012, but I'm unable to access the city duma website; as for the local election law for Moscow, I'm not sure of its name, but imagine its in city duma ordinances, as well. -- Criticalthinker ( talk) 03:03, 17 September 2022 (UTC)

I have updated the population census from 2014 to 2022 using UN estimation. The region called Somaliland is also included in the wider census. I have also added other two references unrelated to the census. This user does a bad revert and makes horrible lies by claiming I have conducted vandalism and cited no references. [27] I warned him and told him to properly review the references before you make such bold edits and claims. [28] He deletes it and undo's another user who called him out on his bad reverts [29] I wish to request your support who has experience in dealing with users with poor behaviours if you could kindly revert back.

Hi. Thank you for this, where it was starting to become a pain in the you-know-what. I just wanted to mention the possibility that frustrated comedians will then run along and take it out on Königsberg. There has only been one so far, so obviously no action is immediately required; furthermore it could always be taken to RPP if it does become necessary. I just wanted to mention it to you since you're obviously clued-up and in the loop, as it were. I'll try not to bother you again with this. Cheers DBaK ( talk) 10:54, 7 October 2022 (UTC)

Leftists users have decided to impose a sentence in the intro paragraph of kyriakos mitsotakis page ( https://en.m.wikipedia.org/wiki/Kyriakos_Mitsotakis) , with personal views, ie. "During Mitsotakis' term as PM, Greece has experienced a democratic backsliding and a heightened corruption,[1] with a drastic[2] deterioration of freedom of the press,[3][4] human rights violations,[5][6] and was marred by the Novartis corruption scandal[7][8] and the 2022 wiretapping scandal.[9]". There is no official - legal decision about this and official source legally condemning this politician or his party on it. It is a mibdset based on personal opinions. But since, some people believe that they are being silenced, it should exist in the controversies section of the same page. I guess you locked the page changes in order to protect its neutrality.

Hello, Ymblanter,
A new editor, User:TeddyRoosevelt1912, has been removing lots of villages from Raion categories, causing many of them to become empty categories (see Category:Empty categories awaiting deletion). I know that you have done a lot of work over the past few months recategorizing villages in Ukraine to take account of geographic and administrative changes so I thought you'd be the best person to judge whether or not this emptying "out of process" was justified or whether these edits should be reverted. Thanks, in advance, for looking into this. Liz Read! Talk! 05:53, 13 October 2022 (UTC)

Hi Ymblanter. Thanks for making the new column on the List of cities of Russia page, with the 2021 Census results. You make a brief comment that you might remove the 2010 Census results column at a later date.

Hi there. Noticed you reverted my move, shortening the original title. WP:UAPLACE makes no specific mention to a case like this one. Is there any other Vasylivka in Mykolaiv Oblast? If so, is there any other Vasylivka in Mykolaiv Raion? If so, that's the only justification for such a long disambiguation. Found no other article about Vasilyvkas in Mykolaiv Oblast, in the first place. The Ukrainian Wikipedia does mention several other Vasilyvkas in Mykolaiv Raion, correctly disambiguated, but there's no other Vasylivka in here, and doubt some of them would even have an article as nearly no people live there.

Hi!
You get this message because you are an admin on a Wikimedia wiki.
When someone edits a Wikimedia wiki without being logged in today, we show their IP address. As you may already know, we will not be able to do this in the future. This is a decision by the Wikimedia Foundation Legal department, because norms and regulations for privacy online have changed.
Instead of the IP we will show a masked identity. You as an admin will still be able to access the IP. There will also be a new user right for those who need to see the full IPs of unregistered users to fight vandalism, harassment and spam without being admins. Patrollers will also see part of the IP even without this user right. We are also working on better tools to help.
If you have not seen it before, you can read more on Meta. If you want to make sure you don’t miss technical changes on the Wikimedia wikis, you can subscribe to the weekly technical newsletter.
We have two suggested ways this identity could work. We would appreciate your feedback on which way you think would work best for you and your wiki, now and in the future. You can let us know on the talk page. You can write in your language. The suggestions were posted in October and we will decide after 17 January.
Thank you. / Johan (WMF)

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.

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)

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[1]
who knows how many hours I've wasted on ridiculous talk page blather from ideology-motivated editors[2]
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[3]
the fact that this particular matter is so aggressively highlighted in the lead over all else—your preference—is a big read flag.[4]
Bold and italicize all you like, [https://en.wikipedia.org/?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.[5]
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.[6]
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.

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)

Thanks for the article. Consider improving with more reliable sources and corresponding information from the Chinese Wikipedia.

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.

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

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)

Hello Ymblanter!
I saw that you blocked the IP 2804:14D:5C87:8A5E:99C3:E5F:678B:5A40. Last year this IP insanely harassed me (I had to hide it - the text is in Portuguese) behind a pretense of "Good Faith" (I was editing the article Rayssa Leal, with several sources, and the user basically said that I was wrong, lied and even threatened that I could be expelled from Wikipedia for "committing crimes" (sourcing every sentence from a reliable source)) and I even attempted to send it to the Notice Board, but it affected my mental well being so much that I couldn't proceed against him. Well, I'm writing it now because at the time he also used the IP 177.142.131.180: its last edition is from August and might even have changed ownership, but I thought that I should let it here as a note and I hope that I will never suffer the same thing while editing the Wikipedia again. In the past the only bizarre that I went on good faith was this. Thanks, Erick Soares3 ( talk) 19:23, 18 April 2022 (UTC)

It's not for discuss content or issues of OTHER articles, which is what GCB's comment is. The WP:TALKOFFTOPIC comment is WP:DISRUPTIVE to that page & gives the appearance of WP:CANVASSING.

Hi Ymblanter
I note this edit
I do have understanding of the issue, User:Andrewa|Andrew, after having created a significant portion of all the pages on Ukrainian localities here. It was very nice of you to throw a baseless accusation and close the discussion so that I can not respond.
and that it was immediately reverted by yourself.
The initial way to respond, of course, is on user talk pages. As an admin yourself, you should know that.
You ask Who cares? I do. And looking at your user page, you are one of the very last people I would wish to disparage.
But do you still think that it must be Niu-York per WP:UAPLACE (my emphasis)? I'm keen to see your response. Perhaps, as you seem to suggest, I have that wrong. Andrewa ( talk) 23:50, 1 June 2022 (UTC)
Hi there Ymblanter, hope you're doing well. Would you mind giving us your input as a third opinion on Talk:2020_Ghazanchetsots_Cathedral_shelling#Saadat_Kadyrova discussion? I wanted to request it in WP:THIRD, but I doubt most of the reviewers are Russian speaking. The discussion is about a statement that was said during Sunday Evening with Vladimir Solovyov.
I believe there are decent sources to merit its inclusion [10], [11], and even a passage from the book of political expert Evgeny Yanovich [12]. And that statement was in the article for a very long time to begin with. My opponent removed it couple of days ago [13], stating it's not a response from Azerbaijan. I suggested moving it to the International section, even tho the original source itself states she's Azerbaijani. I think we've reached a brick wall in the discussion and I don't want it to get even lengthier, so I would greatly appreciate if you could provide your opinion.

They are backing up their edits with sources, but they are using primary sources only, and the sources are also unreliable, plus they are fringe themselves. And the user's interpretation of the sources is an improper synthesis. I would like your feedback on this matter and whether this issue can be resolved diplomatically or not. Thank you in advance.

Hey Ymblanter, I just saw your revert on Kalynivske, Kherson Oblast and I wanted to know, what's not good about the edit? I realize now that the date formatting is wrong, which was a mistake on my part, but what was wrong with the rest of the edit, like the see also section? Per MOS:SEEALSO, I think having the List of renamed cities in Ukraine or Russian occupation of Kherson Oblast included are both useful and relevant. I personally think these sort of pages benefit from having a see also section but I'm open to discussing it. Also, you took out the translation template from the Kalynivske, Kherson Oblast page but I think it should've been kept. While the Ukrainian-language page might also be a stub, it mostly contains information (which is sourced) that's not present in the English article (the only section on it is about the town's history, which isn't present on the English page. Per the Expand language template documentation, it should be used when "English Wikipedia articles...can be improved by a translation from a foreign-language Wikipedia," which I think is the case here.
I think having an "Administrative status" section is also beneficial to that and other articles but let me know what you think. I changed transportation into a header since that's the sole substance of the body of the section and since most comprehensive location pages have them as separate sections ( Kyiv, just one example) but I'm open to talking about it too. I wasn't sure if the template for the population estimate was one that stayed updated so I changed it to past tense but if it does get updated fairly frequently, I think putting it in present tense makes sense. I think that's all the parts of my edits but if I left something out feel free to tell me. Also let me know what your thoughts are on this. Thanks!!!!! :)

Hello, Ymblanter,
I came across some articles tagged for speedy deletion as hoaxes, CSD G3, and found a couple ( Draft:Scott's (department store) and Draft:Snoe Corporation) that were recently edited by User:TucsonMager79 that had been created by User:SagoShader, an editor you blocked.

The "main article" that was deleted from the section was called "Administrative divisions of the Luhansk People's Republic", whereas the main article that you restored to the section is called "Administrative divisions of Luhansk Oblast".

The biography edits I reverted broke multiple rules in Biographies of living persons editing including Neutral point of view and other biography rules involving neutrality and bias, other edits I reverted were vandalism and changes to my own edits which excludes them from being considered edit warring, “experienced users” reverting my edit doesn’t mean the edits I reverted are excluded from rule breaking or my reversions are considered edit warring

I've noticed this wording on a lot of Ukrainian city pages concerning the rearrangement of administration that from an English perception I think it unclear, and unintentionally misleading; it usually goes:
"The area of [name of former municipality] was merged into [name of raion]."
On every page I see this on it gives the impression that the urban-type settlement, village or rural settlement is no longer part of the municipality in which it is still located, which is the opposite of the truth. Also, the word "merge" in English implies that the municipality has been abolished and its competencies transfered back to the raion, which also isn't the case.
What I'd suggest on these pages to avoid confusion as it concerns the reform of local administration is that any mention of pre-2020 arrangment come at the end of any section on local administration. Further, I'd really just leave out any mentions of "merge" on the pages of settlements without council, altogether. That should be left for the hromada pages or former municipal pages. Finally, when it is mentioned, at all, it should be worded simply to say that municiaplities were re-subordinated to raion councils as opposed to "merge", which, again, implies abolition of the local government.
Let me know what you think of all of this. Criticalthinker ( talk) 20:19, 5 September 2022 (UTC)
It understandable when explained, but as written, it's confusing from an English-language perspective when plainly reading it. The level of precision makes it less clear, in fact. We use "municipality" generally to mean a settlement with local government. The wording you use on these pages when read plainly for an English-speaker makes it sound as if these local governments/councils have been abolished and are now governed directly from the Raion council/government. The precision also doesn't seem important when a municipality and community/hromada don't have different competencies/responsibilities; it's just a renaming of the base units of local government. But, again, it really doesn't make sense to explain this on pages for communities without their own local governments, at all. Unless a settlement has changed hands between municipalities/hromadas, the 2020 reform of local government on these locality pages doesn't even need to be mentioned. All we need to know is which hromada the locality belongs to; change of status of a hromada only needs to be mentioned on the main hromada's page. I do appreciate all of your work, but I'm just sharing with you how confusing this is from an English-language perspective on English Language wikipedia. The 2020 local government reform has its own article, I think; it almost doesn't even need to be mentioned on a hromada's article, honestly, and really only relevant on a raion or oblast article. -- Criticalthinker ( talk) 08:02, 6 September 2022 (UTC)
It seems I may have confused myself about who exactly has been doing this, but I thought I saw that you'd create this format for these articles. But it also appears that a Fixer88 may have been formatting these articles like this? Anyway, Nova Kakhovka is an example of what I'm speaking of. Instead of "The area of Nova Kakhovka Municipality was merged into Kakhovka Raion." a clearer sentence would simply be that "The territory of Nova Kakhovka city of oblast significance became part of Nova Kakhovka urban hromada." The mention of cities of oblast/district significance being subordinated to raions need only be mentioned on the associated raion pages. Anyway, just something to think about. I'd love to discuss this with a larger group, but not knowing how this started or who started it, I wasn't sure who to contact. -- Criticalthinker ( talk) 10:13, 7 September 2022 (UTC)

Hey, I thought that you might know this. Can you send me a link to the laws of municipal council compositions and elections in general, and then the law that corresponds to Moscow and its lower municipal councils of deputies, specifically? I'm looking to updated the Administrative divisions of Moscow article, and need some proper sourcing to do so; most of the links of the page look to be dead. Mostly, I'm trying to figure out the electoral system used for these councils and mayors and such, but haven't found a good, English-language source describing the basics of their elections. I'd also like to finally be able to write about the difference in municipal divisions of Moscow, as it appears that there are three different kinds (because of the annexation outside the pre-2012 boundaries) with different powers. Criticalthinker ( talk) 22:29, 12 September 2022 (UTC)
That will be helpful. Though, specifically for Moscow, I'm now seeing the law for reform of its territorial divisions was a Moscow City Duma law in 2011 or 2012, but I'm unable to access the city duma website; as for the local election law for Moscow, I'm not sure of its name, but imagine its in city duma ordinances, as well. -- Criticalthinker ( talk) 03:03, 17 September 2022 (UTC)

From you previous comments to User:Intrepid regarding his Impersonation where you tried to explain to him about Impersonation. He is apparently displeased with your comments and is currently lashing out at other editors such as Slatersteven and myself on the Talk page for 2022 Russian invasion of Ukraine. This does not appear to be consistent with his understanding your attempt to explain Impersonation to him on his Talk page. He has made a long sequence of what appear to be disruptive edits against Slatersteven and myself here: [23], [24], [25]. Could you look at this? ErnestKrause ( talk) 10:40, 30 September 2022 (UTC)
Hello ymblanter, I hope you're doing well. I am currently dealing with a disruptive user who seems to be new and inexperienced regarding the rules and regulation of Wikipedia. He has a history of breaking rules: [26] He has broken the 3rd policy almost under 24 hours and engaged in an edit warfare with two users including me. I have updated the population census from 2014 to 2022 using UN estimation. The region called Somaliland is also included in the wider census. I have also added other two references unrelated to the census. This user does a bad revert and makes horrible lies by claiming I have conducted vandalism and cited no references. [27] I warned him and told him to properly review the references before you make such bold edits and claims. [28] He deletes it and undo's another user who called him out on his bad reverts [29] I wish to request your support who has experience in dealing with users with poor behaviours if you could kindly revert back.

Hi. Thank you for this, where it was starting to become a pain in the you-know-what. I just wanted to mention the possibility that frustrated comedians will then run along and take it out on Königsberg. There has only been one so far, so obviously no action is immediately required; furthermore it could always be taken to RPP if it does become necessary.

Leftists users have decided to impose a sentence in the intro paragraph of kyriakos mitsotakis page ( https://en.m.wikipedia.org/wiki/Kyriakos_Mitsotakis) , with personal views, ie. "During Mitsotakis' term as PM, Greece has experienced a democratic backsliding and a heightened corruption,[1] with a drastic[2] deterioration of freedom of the press,[3][4] human rights violations,[5][6] and was marred by the Novartis corruption scandal[7][8] and the 2022 wiretapping scandal.[9]". There is no official - legal decision about this and official source legally condemning this politician or his party on it. It is a mibdset based on personal opinions. But since, some people believe that they are being silenced, it should exist in the controversies section of the same page. I guess you locked the page changes in order to protect its neutrality.

Hello, Ymblanter,
A new editor, User:TeddyRoosevelt1912, has been removing lots of villages from Raion categories, causing many of them to become empty categories (see Category:Empty categories awaiting deletion). I know that you have done a lot of work over the past few months recategorizing villages in Ukraine to take account of geographic and administrative changes so I thought you'd be the best person to judge whether or not this emptying "out of process" was justified or whether these edits should be reverted. Thanks, in advance, for looking into this. Liz Read! Talk! 05:53, 13 October 2022 (UTC)

Hi Ymblanter. Thanks for making the new column on the List of cities of Russia page, with the 2021 Census results. You make a brief comment that you might remove the 2010 Census results column at a later date.

Hi there. Noticed you reverted my move, shortening the original title. WP:UAPLACE makes no specific mention to a case like this one. Is there any other Vasylivka in Mykolaiv Oblast? If so, is there any other Vasylivka in Mykolaiv Raion? If so, that's the only justification for such a long disambiguation. Found no other article about Vasilyvkas in Mykolaiv Oblast, in the first place. The Ukrainian Wikipedia does mention several other Vasilyvkas in Mykolaiv Raion, correctly disambiguated, but there's no other Vasylivka in here, and doubt some of them would even have an article as nearly no people live there.
