Ok–Oksapmin languages ()

Hello Kwamikagami, is there any reason which could explain why did you move Ok–Oksapmin languages to Ok–Oksapmin languages ()? Pamputt (talk) 23:43, 25 October 2013 (UTC)

Just a placeholder. Move it to the proper name if you can. — kwami (talk) 23:45, 25 October 2013 (UTC)

I already figured that the comparable move of Moken language to Moken language () has mere technical reasons. However, I tried to move it to Moken language and the wiki won't let me. --Florian Blaschke (talk) 02:09, 30 October 2013 (UTC)

That's where I am too. The problem with an admin doing it is that half the time they break all the incoming links. I'll tag it to be moved, though. — kwami (talk) 02:11, 30 October 2013 (UTC)

I forgot that you aren't an admin anymore. Meh. --Florian Blaschke (talk) 02:38, 30 October 2013 (UTC)

File:Natively Vietnamese-speaking areas.png

Vietnamese people now are majority in Central Highlands, Soc Trang, Tra Vinh, Thai Nguyen ; the population of Kiên Giang, Dong Nai consisted of primarily ethnic Vietnamese people for a long time. This File is inaccurated and outdated. --123.17.229.91 (talk) 02:54, 26 October 2013 (UTC)

I don't see how that contradicts the map. If majority meant covering the largest area, then Australia would have a greater population than Vietnam. Anyway, if you want to update it, why don't you update it, rather than just deleting it. Or you could just say "traditionally" or "as of 19xx" or "excluding recent immigration" or whatever works. — kwami (talk) 03:01, 26 October 2013 (UTC)

"data from Ethnologue" ?, this only Austo-Asiatic, not Vietnamese language.--123.17.229.91 (talk) 03:13, 26 October 2013 (UTC)

Incorrect. Take a closer look at the map.

Also, you are on the verge of violating 3RR. If you continue edit warring rather than discussion, I will ask to have you blocked or to have the article protected from you. — kwami (talk) 04:33, 26 October 2013 (UTC)

Approximately 2/3 of the Central Highlands's population is Vietnamese people and you maked an inaccurate image.--123.17.235.125 (talk) 05:55, 27 October 2013 (UTC)

We follow sources. Provide a source to the contrary. — kwami (talk) 06:27, 27 October 2013 (UTC)

Talkback notification

I guess posting this isn't really necessary, since I see we now have notifications, but it's what I know. A lot has changed since I got out of my recent six-month retirement! Steel1943 (talk) 08:14, 30 October 2013 (UTC)

October 2013

You currently appear to be engaged in an edit war according to the reverts you have made on Same-sex marriage. Users are expected to collaborate with others, to avoid editing disruptively, and to try to reach a consensus rather than repeatedly undoing other users' edits once it is known that there is a disagreement.

Please be particularly aware, Misplaced Pages's policy on edit warring states:

1. Edit warring is disruptive regardless of how many reverts you have made; that is to say, editors are not automatically "entitled" to three reverts.
2. Do not edit war even if you believe you are right.

If you find yourself in an editing dispute, use the article's talk page to discuss controversial changes; work towards a version that represents consensus among editors. You can post a request for help at an appropriate noticeboard or seek dispute resolution. In some cases it may be appropriate to request temporary page protection. If you engage in an edit war, you may be blocked from editing. Your announcement that you do not intend to stop edit warring makes it difficult to assume that you do not intend to edit war.

Ok–Oksapmin languages ()

You've now made an invalid CSD request that's been declined by two admins. If you're dead set on deleting the redirect, take it to WP:RFD. Further disruption is just going to result in escalation. WilyD 07:59, 31 October 2013 (UTC)
