November 2014

Hello, I'm The Herald. I noticed that you made a change to an article, Kuwait, but you didn't provide a reliable source. It's been removed and archived in the page history for now, but if you'd like to include a citation and re-add it, please do so! If you need guidance on referencing, please see the referencing for beginners tutorial, or if you think I made a mistake, you can leave me a message on my talk page. Thank you.

January 2015

Hello, I'm Denisarona. I noticed that you recently removed some content from Kuwait without explaining why. In the future, it would be helpful to others if you described your changes to Wikipedia with an accurate edit summary. If this was a mistake, don't worry; I restored the removed content. If you would like to experiment, please use the sandbox. If you think I made a mistake, or if you have any questions, you can leave me a message on my talk page. Thanks!

Managing a conflict of interest

Hello, Ohamas. We welcome your contributions, but if you have an external relationship with the people, places, or things you have written about in the article Kuwait, you may have a conflict of interest (COI). Editors with a COI may be unduly influenced by their connection to the topic, and it is important when editing Wikipedia articles that such connections be completely transparent. See the conflict of interest guideline and FAQ for organizations for more information. In particular, we ask that you please:

avoid editing or creating articles related to you and your family, friends, school, company, club, or organization, as well as any competing companies' projects or products;
instead, you are encouraged to propose changes on the Talk pages of affected article(s) (see the {{request edit}} template);
when discussing affected articles, disclose your COI (see WP:DISCLOSE);
avoid linking to the Wikipedia article or to the website of your organization in other articles (see WP:SPAM);
exercise great caution so that you do not violate Wikipedia's content policies.

In addition, you must disclose your employer, client, and affiliation with respect to any contribution for which you receive, or expect to receive, compensation (see WP:PAID).

Please take a few moments to read and review Wikipedia's policies regarding conflicts of interest, especially those pertaining to neutral point of view, sourcing and autobiographies. Thank you. ¬Hexafluoride ^(talk) 00:05, 4 July 2016 (UTC)[reply]

Kuwait City edit

It might be the case that the material you added to Kuwait City was a useful addition to the article. I didn't check to see if it was. My main reason for undoing your edit is that when copying material within Wikipedia it must be done in a particular way to properly credit all contributors.

Please see Wikipedia:Copying within Wikipedia for the proper way to copy material within Wikipedia.--S Philbrick (Talk) 22:08, 29 August 2016 (UTC)[reply]

Your edits on Kuwait

Hello. I have removed the section about corruption you added since the first reference is to a blog run by the World Bank, with articles written by individual contributors (in this case Salah Mohammad Alghazali of Kuwait, of the "Kuwait Transparency Society") and not an official publication from the World Bank, and the second reference does not support your text (there's no mention of "exceptionally corrupt" in the ref...). - Tom | Thomas.W ^talk 13:13, 16 November 2016 (UTC)[reply]

December 2016

Hello, I'm Mike1901. I noticed that in this edit to Kuwait, you removed content without adequately explaining why. In the future, it would be helpful to others if you described your changes to Wikipedia with an edit summary. If this was a mistake, don't worry, the removed content has been restored. If you think I made a mistake, or if you have any questions, you can leave me a message on my talk page. Thanks. Mike1901 (talk) 18:29, 5 December 2016 (UTC)[reply]

Please do not remove content or templates from pages on Wikipedia, as you did to Kuwait, without giving a valid reason for the removal in the edit summary. Your content removal does not appear constructive and has been reverted. If you only meant to make a test edit, please use the sandbox for that. Thank you.

Speedy deletion nomination of Dar al Athar al Islamiyyah

If this is the first article that you have created, you may want to read the guide to writing your first article.
You may want to consider using the Article Wizard to help you create articles.

A tag has been placed on Dar al Athar al Islamiyyah requesting that it be speedily deleted from Wikipedia. This has been done under section G12 of the criteria for speedy deletion, because the page appears to be an unambiguous copyright infringement. This page appears to be a direct copy from https://darmuseum.org.kw/about/. For legal reasons, we cannot accept copyrighted text or images taken from other web sites or printed material, and as a consequence, your addition will most likely be deleted. You may use external websites or other printed material as a source of information, but not as a source of sentences. This part is crucial: say it in your own words. Wikipedia takes copyright violations very seriously and persistent violators will be blocked from editing.

If the external website or image belongs to you, and you want to allow Wikipedia to use the text or image — which means allowing other people to use it for any reason — then you must verify that externally by one of the processes explained at Wikipedia:Donating copyrighted materials. The same holds if you are not the owner but have their permission. If you are not the owner and do not have permission, see Wikipedia:Requesting copyright permission for how you may obtain it. You might want to look at Wikipedia's copyright policy for more details, or ask a question here.

If you think this page should not be deleted for this reason, you may contest the nomination by visiting the page and clicking the button labelled "Contest this speedy deletion". This will give you the opportunity to explain why you believe the page should not be deleted. However, be aware that once a page is tagged for speedy deletion, it may be removed without delay. Please do not remove the speedy deletion tag from the page yourself, but do not hesitate to add information in line with Wikipedia's policies and guidelines. — Diannaa 🍁 (talk) 12:01, 6 May 2017 (UTC)[reply]

June 2017

Please stop your disruptive editing. If you continue to blank out or remove portions of page content, templates, or other materials from Wikipedia without adequate explanation, as you did at Kuwait, you may be blocked from editing. Warning for totally unexplained removal of massive amounts of material from the article, and undiscussed total rewrite of large parts of it. - Tom | Thomas.W ^talk 23:03, 23 June 2017 (UTC)[reply]

You may be blocked from editing without further warning the next time you vandalize Wikipedia, as you did at Kuwait. You don't get revert years of work becuase you're upset. It does not matter even if you were the only one to have done all the work. Meters (talk) 23:13, 23 June 2017 (UTC)[reply]

Note When you edit it has the disclaimer By saving changes, you agree to the Terms of Use, and you irrevocably agree to release your contribution under the CC BY-SA 3.0 License and the GFDL. You agree that a hyperlink or URL is sufficient attribution under the Creative Commons license. It is too late to revert. Emir of Wikipedia (talk) 23:16, 23 June 2017 (UTC)[reply]

And Ohamas is not the only person to have worked on that article since 2012. Meters (talk) 23:24, 23 June 2017 (UTC)[reply]

Proposed deletion of Bait Al-Othman Museum

Hello, Ohamas. I wanted to let you know that I’m proposing an article that you started, Bait Al-Othman Museum, for deletion because I don't think it meets our criteria for inclusion. If you don't want the article deleted:

edit the page
remove the text that looks like this: {{proposed deletion/dated...}}
save the page

Also, be sure to explain why you think the article should be kept in your edit summary or on the article's talk page. If you don't do so, it may be deleted later anyway.

You can leave a note on my talk page if you have questions.
