Canvassing

Hi. Please don't invite users from only one point of view to comment on Wikipedia discussions. Just make your own comment, list the discussion in the appropriate venues, and try to prevail by force of reason. In the recent AfD, experienced users agreed with your point of view. Do we have an understanding that you will not canvas in the future? I do not care whether or not you did in the past, as long as you confirm that you will not do so in the future. My purpose in asking you for this commitment is to defuse concerns of other editors who favor a sanction. Thank you. Jehochman Talk 15:48, 5 February 2019 (UTC) reply

  • Hi, Roger to no canvassing. I will not canvas in the future. Although in this case I would like to comment that I honestly did not see it as a matter of different points of view and I think the fact that at the end everybody without a single exception affirmed my judgement was significant. Also, my regards to the editors because I believe in the process. Fredrick eagles ( talk) 19:40, 5 February 2019 (UTC) reply
  • @ Jehochman: I think you were OUTing a user by asking him not to invite others, since he hadn't mentioned any off-wiki link and you could not have ask him to prohibit canvassing (right?). @ Oshwah and Fish and karate: Thanks for being precise and accurate, but...OUTing? Just see he promised not to invite others in the future! -- Mhhossein talk 06:48, 8 February 2019 (UTC) reply
You are wrong. Please strike out the serious accusation you have made against me without any evidence. What are you doing here? Let this user speak for themself. They don’t need you acting as their lawyer, because you are casting aspersions and misusing Wikipedia as a battleground. Jehochman Talk 09:53, 8 February 2019 (UTC) reply
@ Jehochman: Yeah I may be wrong but every thing is clear here! I'm finished with that but your comments seemed contradictory to me. Once you say there's no clue and then you come here and make comments on inviting! Is asking some one not to invite others, while we're not sure if he/she really has done that before, accepted? Moreover, you ask me to strike "the serious accusation" and you make serious accusations of " casting aspersions and misusing Wikipedia as a battleground". Not a good reaction! I'm just Finished with that. -- Mhhossein talk 05:03, 9 February 2019 (UTC) reply
I showed my good faith against you and would expect you do the same. -- Mhhossein talk 05:05, 9 February 2019 (UTC) reply

Information icon Hi, and thank you for your contributions to Wikipedia. It appears that you tried to give Haft Tappeh Sugar Cane Mill Labor Syndicate a different title by copying its content and pasting either the same content, or an edited version of it, into another page with a different name. This is known as a " cut-and-paste move", and it is undesirable because it splits the page history, which is legally required for attribution. Instead, the software used by Wikipedia has a feature that allows pages to be moved to a new title together with their edit history.

In most cases, once your account is four days old and has ten edits, you should be able to move an article yourself using the "Move" tab at the top of the page (the tab may be hidden in a dropdown menu for you). This both preserves the page history intact and automatically creates a redirect from the old title to the new. If you cannot perform a particular page move yourself this way (e.g. because a page already exists at the target title), please follow the instructions at requested moves to have it moved by someone else. Also, if there are any other pages that you moved by copying and pasting, even if it was a long time ago, please list them at Wikipedia:Requests for history merge. Thank you.

Iranian politics general sanctions notice

Please read this notification carefully: it contains important information about an administrative situation on Wikipedia. It does not imply any misconduct regarding your own contributions to date.

A community discussion has authorised the use of general sanctions to curtail disruption in articles related to post-1978 Iranian politics, broadly construed. Before continuing to make edits that involve this topic, please read the full description of these sanctions here.

General sanctions is a system of conduct regulation designed to minimise disruption in controversial topic areas. This means uninvolved administrators can impose sanctions for edits relating to these topics that do not adhere to the purpose of Wikipedia, our standards of behaviour, or relevant policies. Administrators may impose sanctions such as editing restrictions, bans, or blocks. An editor can only be sanctioned after he or she has been made aware that general sanctions are in effect. This notification is meant to inform you that sanctions are authorised in these topic areas, which you have been editing. It is only effective if it is logged here. Before continuing to edit pages in these topic areas, please familiarise yourself with the general sanctions system. Don't hesitate to contact me or another editor if you have any questions.
