Re: Request

I agree that User:Ulvi is either a sockpuppet or a meatpuppet and he has a habit of reappearing to defend certain users and their positions, but I don't think there is justification for blocking him at the present time. He has only made 3 edits in the last month. Sorry I can't be of more help. Sarah Ewart 03:31, 6 December 2006 (UTC)

Thanks for your thankyou message. I was rather surprised (nicely) as no one has ever thanked me for not doing as they wish (they usually abuse me!). I'm sorry I couldn't help but please don't hesitate to ask again if you feel he is in breach of policy or if you need assistance with anything else. I don't know if you're familiar with it or not, but the sockpuppet policy is here and it explains how socks may or may not be used. For what it's worth, I feel that Ulvi is a meatpuppet, rather than a sockpuppet. Cheers, Sarah Ewart 13:14, 6 December 2006 (UTC)

Regarding User:Ararat arev

I have reported Ararat to WP:AIV and as far as I know, reverted his edits to the most recent complete version of this page. Apologies on behalf of RC patrol for not noticing and reporting him sooner. You may also have a case for Misplaced Pages:Harassment- I will be happy to assist you in this regard if you wish. --Moralis 09:17, 13 December 2006 (UTC)

Re: Paytakaran

Hey Tigran, nice to see you back. Just to let you know, I didn't add the reference from Iranica. That was GM. Check the edit history again and send your complaints to him, not me. -- Clevelander 21:08, 13 December 2006 (UTC)

Request for Mediation

A Request for Mediation to which you are a party was not accepted and has been delisted. You can find more information on the mediation subpage, Misplaced Pages:Requests for mediation/Urartu.

Urartu article

Hi Tigran. User:Dacy69 has made a request for assistance in the editing of the Urartu article. According to Dacy69, the dispute centres on differing views on the ethnic composition of Urartu. I note that you are a very experienced Wiki editor, and that you have been working on Armenian related articles for over a year. I also note that you got involved in a dispute in February that caused you to leave Misplaced Pages for a long while. I can sympathise with that - it happened to me as well! I'm pleased you came back. You are clearly a committed and knowledgeable editor who is respected by other editors working in your field.

Dacy69's request is for "neutral wording of section "Ethnic Composition" of page Urartu". From my reading of the situation, it appears that Dacy69 would like information about the Hurrit tribe to be included in the article, while you do not. Is that correct? It also appears that Dacy69 has provided evidence that some scholars believe the Hurrit tribe did live in Urartu. Is the evidence he provides correct? If the evidence is correct, and some scholars are saying that the Hurrit tribe did live in Urartu, then what is your objection to that appearing in the article?

AMA

Just to let you know I will be helping in the dispute you are in. Have a nice week and god bless. --James, La gloria è a dio 15:03, 18 January 2007 (UTC)

• The info you want out comes from a reliable source, Encyclopædia Iranica. Have a nice week and god bless. --James, La gloria è a dio 17:15, 18 January 2007 (UTC)
• Tigran, I was never uncivil or assumed bad faith. I asked him if he feels as if he owns the articles, he said know, and I believe him. I'm sorry that you thought I was assuming bad faith but I can assure you I was not. Cheers. --James, La gloria è a dio 02:17, 22 January 2007 (UTC)

Just to let you know I am going to get a lot more people into this case. Look at my desk for new comments a lot. Thanks. --James, La gloria è a dio 02:37, 24 January 2007 (UTC)

Your question

You asked a question on Sir James Paul's ama desk. AMA stands for "Association of Members' Advocates", you can read more here. Cheers and I hope this helps. ~ Arjun 04:32, 24 January 2007 (UTC)

Blocked

I have blocked you for inappropriate edit warring and 3RR gaming. See Misplaced Pages:Administrators'_noticeboard/3RR#User:TigranTheGreat reported by User:Grandmaster (Result:). In particular, Making reverts edits intentionally just outside the 24 hour mark to use the 3RR rule to your advantage, rather than as a tool to cool conflict, is disruptive. Comments like "Now why would you warn me against 3RR? Don't you ever want to make me get caught? Just as I get you blocked every time? :)" show that you were clearly acting with an intent to bait the other party into getting blocked, not working constructively towards the encyclopedia, and so I find it hard not to consider this bad faith trolling.
