[edit] Armenian Genocide
I see that you've just edited many words in the article from Turkey/Turkish to Ottoman Empire/Ottoman where appropriate. I agree with your edit, but I would like to advise you to bring it up on the article's talk page next time, before making such an article-wide edit. Armenian Genocide is a hotly contested article, with many disputes bordering on edit wars. So please, be cautious. Aecis Dancing to electro-pop like a robot from 1984. 00:22, 20 October 2006 (UTC)
Thank you for your understanding. I am an avid historian. I do believe in neutrality of any wiki article. Most of the external and reference links seem to be biased. I did not want to add fire to the controversy. I have not touched to the "quotations that calls Ottoman Empire, Turkey (even though the word was literally made official through a joke about an animal by British politicians)" and tried to make myself as neutral as possible and at least give the article just a little more creditability by stating that it was Ottoman Empire not Republic of Turkey before 1920s that has done these acts. I do not believe I have done anything to change the meaning of the article at all (or anything controversial for that matter) so I did not care to add a comment and add more fuel to the fire. Thank you for being understanding. P.S. Heck of a user page. MKS 18:58, 26 October 2006 (UTC)

[edit] links to cedar city online
Please do not add inappropriate external links to Wikipedia. Wikipedia is not a mere directory of links nor should it be used for advertising or promotion. Inappropriate links include (but are not limited to) links to personal web sites, links to web sites with which you are affiliated, and links that exist to attract visitors to a web site or promote a product. See the external links guideline and spam policies for further explanations of links that are considered appropriate. If you feel the link should be added to the article, then please discuss it on the article's talk page rather than re-adding it. See the welcome page to learn more about Wikipedia. Thank you.

I live in Chicago, I do not live in Cedar City, I dont own that site. The guy did the only research for history of those small communities and actually showed up in google for the keywords in those communities' histories. Who in the world gives you the right to accuse people who put valid history content about small communities as a spam. How dare you sir just simply delete content references. ALL CONTENT REQUIRES REFERENCES. MKS 18:41, 21 November 2006 (UTC)
- The links are to a commercial realtor site, which does not qualify as a reliable source. Feel free to remove any information that you feel is not properly sourced. Thanks, OhNoitsJamie Talk 18:53, 21 November 2006 (UTC)
How am I supposed to find a more reliable source for a 200 people town other than flying to Utah and going to the local historical archives. The guy actually did some great research. What happened to accept people's goodwill first. Good luck expanding Wikiproject Utah, I just wanted to give a lending help. Geesh. MKS 18:57, 21 November 2006 (UTC)
[edit] Türkiye Portalı
Merhaba geçenlerde Türkiye Portalını seçkin portallara aday gösterdim Wikipedia:Featured portal candidates/Portal:Turkey. Fakat bir Vikiproje Türkiye üyesi dışında kimse oy kullanmadı. Gelen karşıt oylarla kabul edilmemiş oldu. Lütfen oyunuzu kullanın.--Absar 12:23, 6 January 2007 (UTC)
[edit] WikiProject Spam
Hey there! I saw you reverting or removing linkspam. Thanks! If you're interested, come visit us in WikiProject Spam so we can work together in our efforts to clean spam from Wikipedia. --A. B. (talk) 03:16, 23 January 2007 (UTC)
- P.S. Most of the ongoing activity is on the talk page, Wikipedia talk:WikiProject Spam, not the project page. --A. B. (talk) 03:19, 23 January 2007 (UTC)
[edit] WikiProject Cities Participation
Hi, your name is on a list of active members for WikiProject Cities. We have recently revitalized the project by including an article assessment department. Presently there is a great deal of work to complete in rating/tagging all of the 1000+ article which have not been assessed or tagged with the new {{WPCities}} banner template. Further, we have made changes to {{Infobox City}} that require some formatting changes in the articles that use the template. Your assistance at this time of change would be greatly appreciated.

[edit] New WikiProject Illinois Collaboration Division
Hey, saw you were a participant in the Illinois WikiProject. I thought I would let you know that there is a new Collaboration Division up for the project. The goal of the division is to select an article or articles for improvement to Good article standard or higher. There is a simple nomination process, which you can check out on the division subpage, to make sure each candidate for collaboration has enough interested editors. This is a good way to get a lot of articles to a quality status quickly. Please consider participating. More details can be seen at the division subpage. IvoShandor 11:30, 10 March 2007 (UTC)

Would you like to contribute to the nomination process or peer review the article? SEE: --Maestro 12:58, 24 March 2007 (UTC)
