Sources

Gazifikator, don't remove sourced info. If there is something you are not certain about, you can raise the issue here and more references can be provided, but do not delete valuable sourced information.Chippolona (talk) 06:54, 27 May 2009 (UTC)[reply]

This information is not so valuable, it is a copy from Eraren anti-Armenian site with obvious purpose to deny the Armenian Genocide and possible purpose to promote negative info on a BLP. this is a real problem, and you need to be more careful. For example, the lead itself is an OR, and the cited source does not support the allegations you added! So it must be deleted. So act according to WP:BLP, WP:NPOV and WP:RS otherwise your actions will be noticed. Gazifikator (talk) 07:36, 27 May 2009 (UTC)[reply]

Dear Gazifikator, every single line in the article can be confirmed by multiple third-party sources, which I have already provided. Eraren has been replaced with neutral sources. And in the future, instead of just deleting paragraphs and paragraphs of information, please work constructively to find and add reliable sources. We are here to improve articles, not delete them. And instead of claiming that the lead was an OR, you should have just done a quick Google search. Chippolona (talk) 10:32, 27 May 2009 (UTC)[reply]

It yet contains the same harming OR and I noticed about this violation of WP:BLP. Gazifikator (talk) 10:42, 27 May 2009 (UTC)[reply]

Misinterpretation

This part of the lead, "He was convicted in 2001 of US federal crimes relating to terrorism" is not supported by the represented source [1]. LA times also mentiones that it was just an accusation, wasnt proved by court. Gazifikator (talk) 13:13, 27 May 2009 (UTC)[reply]

baku, again, noone of two provided sources support the claims that "He was convicted in 2001 of US federal crimes relating to terrorism". One is even a dashnak source, that for sure will not support such a "smart" accusation. Gazifikator (talk) 15:05, 29 June 2009 (UTC)[reply]

Agreed. Although his actions is somewhat related to alleged terrorist activities, his actual conviction relates only to storage of stolen explosives and possession of weapons. Nishkid64 _{(Make articles, not wikidrama)} 15:44, 29 June 2009 (UTC)[reply]
