Hello there!

I've been working more or less solo on the turkey module for so long, so I appreciate any contributions. Of course I ask that you cite them, even if this just means a url in the edit summary (that's what I've been doing). --Monochrome_Monitor 01:48, 14 December 2015 (UTC) Oh, and for that matter have you seen the talk page? --Monochrome_Monitor 01:57, 14 December 2015 (UTC)[reply]

First of all, thanks for your contributions on this article. I also followed this talk page. Because this war is so new.. Now it's just a rebellion or insurgency, but in the future there will be a civil war. Like the Syrian civil war. Then we can add sources to the edit summary. Bruskom (talk) 03:44, 14 December 2015 (UTC)[reply]

But it would be better to start now, even while the page has few visitors, wouldn't it? I did think the conflict would escalate when the AKP got a majority (obviously unfairly) and that lawyer was killed, but apparently Kurds have a pretty high tolerance for that stuff. --Monochrome_Monitor 11:13, 14 December 2015 (UTC)[reply]

Have you seen this? [1] XD --Monochrome_Monitor 18:38, 1 January 2016 (UTC)[reply]

And the borders of the provinces should be slightly thicker than black. like that Bruskom (talk) 10:33, 2 January 2015 (UTC)[reply]

Recent edit to Kurds

Hello, and thank you for your recent contribution. I appreciate the effort you made for our project, but unfortunately I had to undo your edit because I believe the article was better before you made that change. Feel free to contact me directly if you have any questions. Thank you! DrDevilFX (talk) 11:42, 20 December 2015 (UTC)[reply]

Edit warring

Bruskom, I see you've been in a content dispute with User:Antmqr on Turkish Kurdistan for a little while. By rights, I should be blocking you both, instead I have protected the page to allow discussion to happen. Wikipedia has strict rules about how to solve content disputes - through discussion and consensus. Constant reverting will never help, so stop doing that. Absolutely. Ever again. If you cannot reach consensus between the two of you, follow the steps in WP:Dispute resolution. Finally, Bruskom, stop referring to Antmqr's edits as vandalism. Vandalism is a specific term on Wikipedia, which attributes malice to the edits - i.e. comparing them to replacing walls of text with swear words. I have seen no evidence of malice - I am sure Antmqr is also trying to improve the encyclopedia. If you carry on falsely calling his edits vandalism, I will block you for disruptive editing, as you will never be able to come to agreement if you are not open to it. Worm^TT(talk) 18:49, 20 December 2015 (UTC)[reply]

I see you've made no attempt to discuss the edits, so I assume you're happy with Antmqr's point of view on the talk page. Worm^TT(talk) 13:38, 24 December 2015 (UTC

Bruskom, we have multiple editors stating the historic borders map on Turkish Kurdistan is an issue, and none explaining why it should be in the article. You have made approximately 50 reverts to the article in the past month, and 1 edit to the talk page (which was a revert). If you revert again without discussion, I will consider this a slow motion edit war, and block you - per my previous warning. Simply, if you think the map should be in the article, discuss it. That is your only remaining option. Cross posting to this and your talk page, so any other admin can block. Worm^TT(talk) 11:00, 15 January 2016 (UTC)[reply]

A pie for you!

Thanks for the treat! Sûriyeya (talk) 18:29, 22 December 2015 (UTC)[reply]

Turkey Map

So, yeah. I'm working off of this map. Thoughts? I think I should delete the rivers that aren't in Turkey, they are rather distracting. --Monochrome_Monitor 04:55, 27 December 2015 (UTC) I uploaded it as a separate file, File:Turkey location map2.svg--Monochrome_Monitor 05:10, 27 December 2015 (UTC) I have no idea how to invoke it in the module since it just says "Turkey" as the container rather than the filename, so there must be a step I'm missing. --Monochrome_Monitor 05:10, 27 December 2015 (UTC)[reply]

Thank you for helping. Generally familiar and most big rivers should be add to map. Only the Tigris and Euphrates rivers. And lakes and rivers in neighboring countries(Not all). The colors of the provinces should be corrected. It is must be the same as the Syria location map. Bruskom ^{talk to me} 06:32, 27 December 2015 (UTC)[reply]

I'll try to make Syria layer more or less perfectly with it, but since the current version doesn't overlap with syria it'll be a pain in the ass. --Monochrome_Monitor 06:44, 27 December 2015 (UTC)[reply]

Ugh. I have to take bits from several maps and put them together to make this work. --Monochrome_Monitor 07:06, 27 December 2015 (UTC)[reply]

Um, it IS the same as the syria map colorization wise. --Monochrome_Monitor 13:12, 27 December 2015 (UTC)[reply]

I downloaded a much better SVG editor than the crappy online one was using earlier. This make take some time though. --Monochrome_Monitor 21:19, 27 December 2015 (UTC)[reply]

I'm done transferring the rivers from the Syria map to the turkey one. Now I'm working on turkey's rivers. --Monochrome_Monitor 22:50, 27 December 2015 (UTC)[reply]

God, vector graphics are a pain. You can't crop... --Monochrome_Monitor 23:22, 27 December 2015 (UTC)[reply]

Kurds image gallery

Hi! There has been a long discussion about image galleries in articles about ethnic groups. It was concluded yesterday with a consensus for removing such galleries, see wp:NOETHNICGALLERIES. You may want to revert your last edit. Regards! --T*U (talk) 07:07, 4 January 2016 (UTC)[reply]

To be precise, it's been decided not to have image galleriess in infoboxes. Please respect this decision. Doug Weller talk 09:58, 4 January 2016 (UTC)[reply]

not justified edits

Your source just said that YPG retake 5 villages and 4 farms.here which was previously marked as SDF-held. This was 4 January do when SDF retake some villages. But source not said that the SDF also retake villages of Jubb al-Qidarah, al-Haymar, Shallal, Abdul Kulaib cliffs, Abu Safayah, Dibsiyah, Bir al-Ama and Marwan. Read this discussion:here Guy, I'm also as and you support the Kurds forces and against ISIS but I ask you not do unjustified edits on based the incorrect data. Please read the previously discusion and do self-revert because the villages which you put as SDF-held a still not taken. Sûriyeya (talk) 17:31, 7 January 2016 (UTC)[reply]

Hawarnews says that all of southern Kobanî countryside was cleared from ISIS. Bruskom ^{talk to me} 22:22, 7 January 2016 (UTC)[reply]

Villages S of Kobane

Hi,

I saw your edit and I believe You are missusing the sources. I don't speak Kurdish, but I can recognise some names of the villages that were recently liberated, like "Kerdoşan, Kadriye Şêx, Ali Şemari, Ebumajd û Hasudiye". All of those villages are already yellow on our map. What You did is basically reverted all of my edits and used bogus source to justify it. Please, don't missinterpret news in the future because it's strictly forbidden. Thanks for understanding. --Hogg 22 (talk) 17:40, 7 January 2016 (UTC)[reply]

Notice of rules for Syria war map

Rules for Editing the Map

1- A reliable source for that specific edit should be provided.
a) A well-known source that has a reputation for neutral (not biased) territorial control coverage, can be used (is deemed reliable) for all edits.
b) A well-known source that does not have a reputation for neutral (not biased) territorial control coverage, can be used (is deemed reliable) only for edits that are unfavorable to the side it prefers (favorable to the side it opposes).
c) A source that is not well-known (or that has proven inaccurate for all edits) cannot be used (is deemed unreliable) for any edit. This includes all maps (see item 2- next).

2- Copying from maps is strictly prohibited. Maps from mainstream media are approximate and therefore unreliable for any edit. Maps from amateur sources are below the standards of Wikipedia for any edit. They violate WP:RS and WP:CIRCULAR.
WP:RS: “Anyone can create a personal web page or publish their own book, and also claim to be an expert in a certain field. For that reason, self-published media, such as books, patents, newsletters, personal websites, open wikis, personal or group blogs, Internet forum postings, and tweets, are largely not acceptable as sources.” Source: Wikipedia:Verifiability#Self-published_sources
WP:CIRCULAR: “Do not use websites that mirror Wikipedia content or publications that rely on material from Wikipedia as sources.”

3- WP:POV pushing and intentional misinterpretation of sources will not be tolerated. If you are not sure about what the source is saying (or its reliability), post it on the talk page first so that it would be discussed.

Notice of sanctions

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.

Civil Protection Units (YPS)

We have a lack of references and citations for the YPS page, do you have sources for: its foundation on 20 Dec 2015? It having 1,000 members? I also think we should add a new section to the article listing all the branches of the YPS, do you have sources for these branches, and know how many there are? — Preceding unsigned comment added by Prohibited Area (talk • contribs) 14:49, 14 January 2016 (UTC)[reply]

Hello...Yes, I have sources so much. Also I'll add a new section to the article listing all the branches of the YPS. -Bruskom ^{talk to me} 16:31, 14 January 2016 (UTC)[reply]

Thank you would you mind either providing me with these sources, or citing the page yourself as I feel we need to show more references as evidence for the content on the page. May I ask whether these sources are pro-Kurdish or Turkish?Prohibited Area (talk) 21:55, 15 January 2016 (UTC)[reply]

I reporting resources now. First source and more sources for YPS Nusaybin branch. Second source for YPS Silopi branch. Third source for YPS idil branch. Fourth source for YPS Cizre branch. Fifth source for YPS Sur branch. Sixth source for YPS Diyarbakır branch. Seventh source for YPS Yüksekova branch. And more source. I looked but could not find any sources for YPS branch in Antep. But YDG-H is has a presence in Antep since 2013. Sources mixed. Majority Pro-Kurdish but there are also objective source. -Bruskom ^{talk to me} 06:21, 16 January 2016 (UTC)[reply]

Disambiguation link notification for January 16

Hi. Thank you for your recent edits. Wikipedia appreciates your help. We noticed though that when you edited Civil Protection Units, you added a link pointing to the disambiguation page Sur. Such links are almost always unintended, since a disambiguation page is merely a list of "Did you mean..." article titles. Read the FAQ • Join us at the DPL WikiProject.
