[edit]Hi. Thank you for your recent edits. Wikipedia appreciates your help. We noticed though that when you edited Druze, you added a link pointing to the disambiguation page Afshar (check to confirm | fix with Dab solver). 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.

- Даже не знаю на каком языке отвечать. На русском пойдёт? Формально, к движению "поморского возрождения" я не принадлежу. Я точно не сепаратист, и в реалистичности "поморьска говоря" я пока не разобрался. Но если мне будут говорить, что архангелогородские "поморы" - это мигрировавшие русские новгородцы, то мне не составит никакого труда опровергнуть это с помощью опубликованных генетических и других данных. Что касается меня лично, то с помощью ДНК-теста я узнал, что мой род происходит из Архангельской области, а гаплогруппа у меня N-P43* (P63-, L665-), которая изначально была либо самодийской, либо угорской, либо крайне восточной прибалтийско-финской по языку. По крайней мере, самые большие доли - среди самодийцев. YOMAL SIDOROFF-BIARMSKII (talk) 20:06, 28 March 2014 (UTC)
Speedy deletion nomination of 86.169.168.222
[edit]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 86.169.168.222, requesting that it be speedily deleted from Wikipedia. This has been done under section G11 of the criteria for speedy deletion, because the page seems to be unambiguous advertising which only promotes a company, product, group, service or person and would need to be fundamentally rewritten in order to become encyclopedic. Please read the guidelines on spam and Wikipedia:FAQ/Organizations for more information.
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 "Click here to 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. If the page is deleted, and you wish to retrieve the deleted material for future reference or improvement, you can place a request here. TheLongTone (talk) 20:36, 28 March 2014 (UTC)
Yeah, about that speedy
[edit]Hi, Yomal. You apparently created the page 86.169.168.222 and it's talkpage in order to ask the IP to register. I'm not sure why TheLongTone marked it as spam; it's hardly that; but it's malformed, because you forgot the "User" namespace marker. It should be a userpage, not an article. I've deleted it. Regards, Bishonen | talk 21:46, 28 March 2014 (UTC).
- Oh, sorry! --YOMAL SIDOROFF-BIARMSKII (talk) 22:02, 28 March 2014 (UTC)

Ghurayf
[edit]The source is The History of Kuwait by Michael S Casey. He appears here as Barrak bin Ghuraif and is listed as sheikh of the Bani Kaab from 1669 to 1682. Is this a mistake? Paul S (talk) 15:13, 28 June 2014 (UTC)
- Bani Khalid and Bani Kaab are completely different tribes. Maybe those are two different persons? --YOMAL SIDOROFF-BIARMSKII (talk) 15:20, 28 June 2014 (UTC)
- No, it is Bani Khalid. I don't know why I put Bani Kaab there, my mind must have been elsewhere. This isn't my area of expertise at all, I can't recall now why I was looking into the history of this region. Is Casey's version of the name incorrect? Paul S (talk) 19:07, 28 June 2014 (UTC)
- I think it is incorrect. For some reason, the person's descendants are called Al Urayir, not Al Urayif. Also, I never heard Ghuraif to be an anthroponym. --YOMAL SIDOROFF-BIARMSKII (talk) 08:46, 29 June 2014 (UTC)

[edit]Wikipedia:Template_messages/User_talk_namespace has a number of warning templates that you can use in the future when you see vandals like Afrikaansftw.

In common English usage Ukrainian names are used for places in Ukraine by English language media and scholars these days
[edit]In common English usage Ukrainian names are used for places in Ukraine by English language media and scholars these days; so your edit "their best region being Dnepropetrovsk" on UKROP was faulty English (the name of the city is Dnipropetrovsk in English). Please first check the Wikipedia page of a Ukrainian city first and to see how the name of that city is spelled in English before writing about the city on Wikipedia. But it is safe to say that Ukrainian names are used for places in Ukraine by English language media and scholars these days excepte for Odessa and Kiev. — Yulia Romero • Talk to me! 14:46, 31 October 2015 (UTC)

You appear to be eligible to vote in the current Arbitration Committee election. The Arbitration Committee is the panel of editors responsible for conducting the Wikipedia arbitration process. It has the authority to enact binding solutions for disputes between editors, primarily related to serious behavioural issues that the community has been unable to resolve. This includes the ability to impose site bans, topic bans, editing restrictions, and other measures needed to maintain our editing environment. The arbitration policy describes the Committee's roles and responsibilities in greater detail. If you wish to participate, you are welcome to review the candidates' statements and submit your choices on the voting page.

New Deal
[edit]Hi Yomal, this is Martin of Sheffield. I've reverted your change to New Deal because I think "socialist" is way too left wing for the New Deal changes. PErhaps "social democrat" in the European sense, but socialist implies a communist or similar perspective. If you don't sgree, please take this to the talk page and let's see if we can achieve consensus with all interested editors. Regards, Martin of Sheffield (talk) 23:35, 9 November 2016 (UTC)

Which used outside of a sub-clause
[edit]If you do some research you will find that the use of 'which' outside of a sub-clause is not only generally used in British English (and Australian, New Zealand, South African, Indian etc. English), it is also not strictly incorrect in American English. It is often presented as incorrect by American sources, but they are really only commenting on a convention, not a grammatical absolute. English-speaking readers outside the US tend to find the repetitive use of 'that' for all restrictive clauses monotonous and stylistically boring. Urselius (talk) 09:11, 20 September 2018 (UTC)

Rurik edit
[edit]The material you have added to the Rurik page is problematic for numerous reasons. First, it is not supported by the cited source, which says nothing about a discovery being made in 2018, nor does it mention Stockholm, nor does it even mention Rurik, let alone say anyone is his 15th-cousin (information that is impossible to deduce from Y-DNA test results). Second, the sources given are not reliable (see WP:RS). One is a self-published web page, with no indication of whether the compiler has any expertise. The other is a web discussion board. Neither of these qualify as reliable, as Wikipedia defines it. Third, even were it true, and even were it reliable, it still doesn't belong on the page, because it is not noteworthy that some random person in Stockholm might be related to Rurik. Finally, it is bad form - if you add something new to a page and it is challenged, the next step is to discuss it on the relevant Talk page and reach consensus on its inclusion, not to simply reinsert it (see WP:BRD).

wikipedia is not an internet forum
[edit]See WP:NOT. Article talk pages are for duscussions of article content basing on information which can be cited from reliable sources. Ontherwise please do not waste wikipedians time by idle chat.- Altenmann >talk 17:31, 26 December 2018 (UTC)
- @Altenmann: What is this about? --Yomal Sidoroff-Biarmskii (talk) 18:01, 26 December 2018 (UTC)
- did you read WP:NOTAFORUM? this is about working on article content rather that fingting political opponents. If you have specific suggestions to improve articles, do it, otherwise please find internet forums for political struggles.- Altenmann >talk 18:10, 26 December 2018 (UTC)
- You deleted three of my specific suggestions on the talk pages. --Yomal Sidoroff-Biarmskii (talk) 18:14, 26 December 2018 (UTC)
- There were no suggestions based on references to sources. This user page shows that you have a non-stop history of wasting Wikipedians time by blatantly ignoring our policies about work on articles. If you dont change your behavior, you will be blocked from editing. You had enough warnings. Patience is wearing thin.- Altenmann >talk 18:26, 26 December 2018 (UTC)

- @JackintheBox: In no way did I mean to attack any editors. I love the British and I respect the editor who put it there. What I meant is a mistake that was made something like 200 years ago. If any editor decided that I meant him, please lead him to this my explanation. --Yomal Sidoroff-Biarmskii (talk) 16:29, 23 March 2019 (UTC)

- @JackintheBox: "River Plate" or "river Plate" like, say, "river Thames"? --Yomal Sidoroff-Biarmskii (talk) 12:19, 26 May 2019 (UTC)
- 'River Plate' – capitalised because it is a proper noun. It refers to an estuary, while 'River Thames' refers to a river. JACKINTHEBOX • TALK 03:26, 27 May 2019 (UTC)

- Hi, they probably did try to send you an email but apparently without success. Contact Katy R, the BigY specialist, you should be able to reach her through helpdesk@familytreedna.com (or whatever other channels you have). Megalophias (talk) 23:04, 14 April 2019 (UTC)
