FAC: Agharta (album)

Hi. Would you be interested in reviewing or commenting at this FAC nomination for Agharta (album)? More input would be appreciate, as it appears the original reviewer has bailed. Dan56 (talk) 04:30, 1 July 2016 (UTC)

Hi Dan56. I'll take a look at it over the weekend. — Malik Shabazz /_Stalk 02:05, 2 July 2016 (UTC)

Hi Dan56. I'm sorry. I never got around to reviewing the article. I'll look at it this week or next weekend. — Malik Shabazz /_Stalk 03:57, 6 July 2016 (UTC)

It's ok. A few reviews have been completed so far, so it's not a problem. Dan56 (talk) 20:59, 6 July 2016 (UTC)

Mudar Zahran

Sir, I have been observing you editorial moves on Mudar Zahran's wiki page. I wonder why you insist on deleting things that are pro-him, and keeping things that are against him despite being from known fake and propaganda sites, I am sure you agree that we have to remain accurate despite all, and we have to keep[REDACTED] truthful and reliable. I have seen a lot of agenda-driven action on this page both pro and con, I am messaging you as well as others. — Preceding unsigned comment added by JordanianExpert (talk • contribs) 22:36, 4 July 2016 (UTC)

@JordanianExpert: No need to message me, lets keep discussion in one place. First of all the IP belongs to Mudar Zahran, we know he speaks Arabic. Second, you and that IP are NOT allowed to edit here per WP:ARBPIA3. No conspiracies or "agendas" here. Makeandtoss (talk) 22:40, 4 July 2016 (UTC)

Hello Mudar. I insist on deleting things that are not supported by reliable sources, regardless of whether they portray you in a positive or negative light. Please stop edit-warring over the article, or you will be blocked from editing. — Malik Shabazz /_Stalk 22:44, 4 July 2016 (UTC)

Great stance, then, kindly, why allowing Makeandtoss to use known propaganda, and least known, least read, sites as sources? Also, why allow him to delete entire parts, which is very clear in the edit history, that are using reliable sources? I hope for more balance. Thank you — Preceding unsigned comment added by JordanianExpert (talk • contribs) 22:56, 4 July 2016 (UTC)

I'm sorry you feel our sources are "known propaganda sites". I suppose you think the puffery you've added about yourself is based on reliable sources? You don't hope for balance; you want a glowing portrait. — Malik Shabazz /_Stalk 23:03, 4 July 2016 (UTC)

Hi

Reverting IPs isn't taken into consideration as an actual revert since the article is on WP:ARBPIA3 right? Makeandtoss (talk) 22:41, 4 July 2016 (UTC)

Yes, but I've asked for protection at WP:RPP. I don't want to violate 3RR by my own interpretation of the rules. — Malik Shabazz /_Stalk 22:44, 4 July 2016 (UTC)

Its unfortunately 1RR.. Makeandtoss (talk) 22:46, 4 July 2016 (UTC)

Well then, it's too late for me. — Malik Shabazz /_Stalk 22:47, 4 July 2016 (UTC)

Be careful! Thanks. Makeandtoss (talk) 23:04, 4 July 2016 (UTC)

More silliness is at WP:Administrators' noticeboard/Incidents#Comment from JordanianExpert. (and ping Makeandtoss) Johnuniq (talk) 00:01, 5 July 2016 (UTC)

I was looking at your recent edit at

Letters from Russian Prisons, noticing int he picture of the cover that th "F" in "from" is in capitols and then went looking at the history of the article and was sr=urprised to discover that I did not start the article, when I was pretty sure I did. Food for thought. Einar aka Carptrash (talk) 06:21, 7 July 2016 (UTC)

Now when I look at it, I did start it. I am so confused. Carptrash (talk) 06:22, 7 July 2016 (UTC)

Hi Carptrash. Yesterday, an editor added a link to an online copy of the book, and I got a little carried away. Regarding the capitalization of "from", MOS:CT says it shouldn't be capitalized unless it's the first or last word of the title. — MShabazz /_Stalk 11:27, 7 July 2016 (UTC)

Oh I am very happy with your work there, including the title, it's just something odd happened when I looked at the history and I panicked. Somehow I was looking at the wrong article's history. The real history is interesting in that you arrived at the article the same day I published it, five years ago. Carptrash (talk) 16:09, 7 July 2016 (UTC)

Max Blumethal

I just posted the information that seems to make you biased and unqualified to make decisions about Max Blumenthal's page considering the fact that you are ideologically aligned with him and thus defend him

Please don't use Misplaced Pages as a propaganda platform or I will make sure that you are removed. Please respond to this point. Thank you — Preceding unsigned comment added by Relzap (talk • contribs) 15:45, 8 July 2016 (UTC)
