You may be blocked from editing without further warning the next time you disrupt Misplaced Pages, as you did at Religion in Norway. JimRenge (talk) 21:19, 30 June 2014 (UTC)

What a hell are you doing JimRenge? I explained my edits regarding the image (by giving the example of Religion in Guinea-Bissau) and you raised no concern. The pew estimate is not 2010 estimate but in fact 2012 one. Read it carefully again as the date is mentioned on the top. Stop your stupid behaviour. Stop giving me block warnings.Septate (talk) 09:22, 1 July 2014 (UTC)

You are wrong: The pew estimate for 2010 (!) was published on their website in December 18, 2012. Quote from the head of the table: "Est. 2010 percent that is Muslim".

I think we should discuss these edits on the talk page of Religion in Norway because other editors of the article may also be interested to give their comments. Best regards JimRenge (talk) 12:42, 1 July 2014 (UTC)

Disambiguation link notification for July 5

Hi. Thank you for your recent edits. Misplaced Pages appreciates your help. We noticed though that when you edited Baron Omar Rolf von Ehrenfels, you added a link pointing to the disambiguation page Austrian. 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.

July 2014

Your recent editing history at Religion in Croatia shows that you are currently engaged in an edit war. Being involved in an edit war can result in your being blocked from editing—especially if you violate the three-revert rule, which states that an editor must not perform more than three reverts on a single page within a 24-hour period. Undoing another editor's work—whether in whole or in part, whether involving the same or different material each time—counts as a revert. Also keep in mind that while violating the three-revert rule often leads to a block, you can still be blocked for edit warring—even if you don't violate the three-revert rule—should your behavior indicate that you intend to continue reverting repeatedly.

To avoid being blocked, instead of reverting please consider using the article's talk page to work toward making a version that represents consensus among editors. See BRD for how this is done. If discussions reach an impasse, you can then post a request for help at a relevant noticeboard or seek dispute resolution. In some cases, you may wish to request temporary page protection.

@ User:NeilN, see talk:Religion in the Czech Republic#Islam and Buddhism in lede and tell me who is wrong.Septate (talk) 13:12, 5 July 2014 (UTC)

Hello, I'm BracketBot. I have automatically detected that your edit to Islam in Switzerland may have broken the syntax by modifying 1 "()"s and 2 "{}"s. If you have, don't worry: just edit the page again to fix it. If I misunderstood what happened, or if you have any questions, you can leave a message on my operator's talk page.

Islam in France

Can you please identify where in the sources these statements are made?

• France has the largest number of Muslims in Western Europe.
• Majority of Muslims in France belong to Sunni denomination.

@User:NeilN, thanks for pointing out. I will provide sources quickly.Septate (talk) 04:49, 10 July 2014 (UTC)

@User:NeilN, I have provided sources. Please check them. Thanks.

Hi

Hi mate. My condolences on those who lost their lives on Srebrenica massacre. Hope that no one from your family was murdered by fascists. elmasmelih (used to be KazekageTR) 18:00, 11 July 2014 (UTC)

@elmasmelih. My family was safe during the deadly crises. My family was in Una-Sana Canton, when crises started and then we migrated to Australia. Furthurmore, they were not fascists, they were anti-Muslim Orthodox Serbs.Septate (talk) 04:37, 12 July 2014 (UTC)

My ex gf is Bosnian, their family fled before the war began, she told me that her grandpa sensed something will happen between Serbs and them. Oh and by the way, being anti-Muslim and anti-Bosnian makes them fascists. Take care dude.elmasmelih (used to be KazekageTR) 07:51, 12 July 2014 (UTC)

OK. Thanks.Septate (talk) 07:53, 12 July 2014 (UTC)

Please stop attacking other editors, as you did on User talk:Peaceworld111. If you continue, you may be blocked from editing Misplaced Pages. NeilN 17:28, 16 July 2014 (UTC)

Don't care. Call another editor a "big fat liar" again and you probably won't like the consequences. --NeilN 17:58, 16 July 2014 (UTC)

July 2014 ANI

There is currently a discussion at Misplaced Pages:Administrators' noticeboard/Incidents regarding an issue with which you may have been involved. Bladesmulti (talk) 12:09, 20 July 2014 (UTC)

You asked how the proposed limitation would work.

An indefinite revert limitation on all religion-related edits: not more than 1 revert per 48 hours per article, with the extra slowdown condition that before you make any content revert (including vandalism), you would be required to first open a discussion on the article talk page, to provide an explanation of your intended revert and then wait 6 hours before actually making it to allow time for discussion.

You understand what a revert is. Here is an example of two reverts: another editor made this edit, and you reverted it, and then a third editor reverted you.

What you would have to do in this situation would be to post a clear statement on the article talk page saying what you were going to do, and explaining why this was a good idea. Then wait at least 6 hours for discussion. You would be expected to take note of the discussion in deciding whether to make the edit to the article. If there had been no discussion, you could go ahead 6 hours after you posted the statement on the talk page.

You would also have to be careful not to do a revert on an article, if you had done a revert on the same article less than 48 hours before.

The restriction would only apply to religion-related edits.

If you made a mistake (we all do), you would be expected to self-revert as soon as you noticed that you had broken the restriction, or as soon as someone pointed it out to you.

If you broke the restriction you could be blocked for a week for breaking the restriction. And if you kept on breaking it, the blocks might get bigger. (e.g. 1st time 1 week, 2nd time 1 month, etc.)

The reason the restriction would include reverting vandalism, is that I know from another editor's experience how hard it is in the situation to distinguish between vandalism and non-vandalism. The idea is to make things clear, so you do not break the restriction.--Toddy1 (talk) 08:21, 22 July 2014 (UTC)

Thanks Toddy1.Septate (talk) 16:18, 22 July 2014 (UTC)

Proactively applying the retractions to yourself before the inevetiable closure of the discussion would probably be a good thing. --Adam in MO Talk

July 2014

Hello and welcome to Misplaced Pages. When you add content to talk pages and Misplaced Pages pages that have open discussion (but never when editing articles), such as at Talk:Korma, please be sure to sign your posts. There are two ways to do this. Either:

1. Add four tildes ( ~~~~ ) at the end of your comment; or
2. With the cursor positioned at the end of your comment, click on the signature button ( or ) located above the edit window.

This will automatically insert a signature with your username or IP address and the time you posted the comment. This information is necessary to allow other editors to easily see who wrote what and when.

Thank you. Breawycker (talk to me!) 03:38, 23 July 2014 (UTC)

An article very much needs a fresh pair of eyes

At Misplaced Pages:Administrators' noticeboard/Incidents#Septate: alternative proposal, Iryna Harpy made a suggestion at 23:25, 21 July 2014: saying that he/sjhe would "actually like to encourage Septate to try to do some editing in non-religious subject areas of Misplaced Pages in order to develop a better sense of interacting with other editors/contributors without his (Septate is a he) emotional baggage triggering his WP:BATTLEGROUND mentality. Restrictions are a useful tool, but learning to edit in an environment where he doesn't feel that he is constantly on the defensive or offensive might be a positive experience. If nothing else, it would give him a chance to develop his understanding of policies and guidelines." I think this is a good idea.

As a favour, please could you have a look at the article on the New Russia Party. If you compare the version 1 June with the current version you will see the changes that have taken place. Please review changes, and use your own judgment.

Look at the sources being cited - are they being fairly represented?

Are some people trying to censor information?

Please use the talk page to explain any reverts you want to make. It would be good practice, to explain any reverts or controversial changes on the talk page six hours before making the change.

The article very much needs a fresh pair of eyes - and you are completely unbiased on this subject.--Toddy1 (talk) 20:44, 23 July 2014 (UTC)

Thanks Toddy1. I will try my best to improve this article.Septate (talk) 06:32, 24 July 2014 (UTC)

Boko name

Dude. I just spent hours writing that, because it really needed doing. Surely u agree? I think I did a pretty good job, anyway. zzz 07:43, 24 July 2014 (UTC) — Preceding unsigned comment added by Signedzzz (talk • contribs)

Please don't remove sourced info from the article. You have removed refs from lede also without explanation. My suggestion is to discuss your edits on article's talk page first.

Community imposed edit restriction

Per a consensus of the community at WP:ANI you are now subject to the following restrictions indefinitely for all edits which are related to religion:

1) 1 revert per 48 hours per article (see WP:1RR for more information).

2) Before he makes any content revert (including vandalism), he is required to first open a discussion on the article talk page, to provide an explanation of his intended revert and then wait 6 hours before actually making it to allow time for discussion.

If you violate these restrictions you may be blocked to enforce them or further restricted (such as a ban) by the community. If you wish to appeal these restrictions please do so at WP:AN, though I suggest that you wait at least 3-6 months before appealing. Callanecc (talk • contribs • logs) 02:33, 26 July 2014 (UTC)
