Can you present your view

Can you present your opinion here. Thanks A poor son of Adam (talk) 11:40, 25 February 2022 (UTC)

A kitten for you!

 

I just read what you wrote for RAJIVVASUDEV a while back about what do when you run into an cranky older editor that lives to remove the content of others instead of creating new content of their own. It was exactly what I need to read to help me break off from a situation. It is not even something I care about that much. It is like getting sucked into their road rage. Anyway, thanks for wise and clarity. I am smiling again.

1983 Women's March, Lahore

Bookku, we may both believe that the government of Pakistan is a dictatorship but should that be said in Wikivoice? It would be different if it was quoted directly to a source. --ARoseWolf 18:50, 5 May 2022 (UTC)

@ARoseWolf:, you are right. Now I have attempted to tweak/modify a bit with word 'regime' and still I am having a feeling sentence needs a little better articulation.
As much as I am seeking to focus on academic sources I am getting distracted with real life. I hope this week I should be able to work on further at least on couple of articles including this one.
Bookku, 'Encyclopedias = expanding information & knowledge' (talk) 03:08, 6 May 2022 (UTC)

I have tagged the page as having some issues to fix, as a part of our page curation process and note that:

Hi I’m just reviewing Ibtissam Bouachrine. She doesn’t look to me like she passes WP:NPROF. She may pass WP:AUTHOR but you’d need to find multiple reviews of her work to show that. Thanks

Talk page discussions

Hello Bookku. You could generate more interest from other editors in your posts if you follow the advice of WP:TPYES, "Be concise: Long posts risk being ignored or misunderstood. [...] If you really need to make a detailed, point-by-point post, see [the other] tips." In my opinion it would be good if you start by separating the subsections you created in Talk:2021 Minar-e-Pakistan mass sexual assault Edit dif 1104699210. Make them separate threads and give them a title more descriptive, although concise, of the content. Thinker78 (talk) 16:25, 22 August 2022 (UTC)

Important Notice

This is a standard message to notify contributors about an administrative ruling in effect. It does not imply that there are any issues with your contributions to date.

You have shown interest in India, Pakistan, and Afghanistan. Due to past disruption in this topic area, a more stringent set of rules called discretionary sanctions is in effect. Any administrator may impose sanctions on editors who do not strictly follow Wikipedia's policies, or the page-specific restrictions, when making edits related to the topic.

To opt out of receiving messages like this one, place {{Ds/aware}} on your user talk page and specify in the template the topic areas that you would like to opt out of alerts about. For additional information, please see the guidance on discretionary sanctions and the Arbitration Committee's decision here. If you have any questions, or any doubts regarding what edits are appropriate, you are welcome to discuss them with me or any other editor.

RegentsPark (comment) 17:53, 10 September 2022 (UTC)

@RegentsPark Through you I would like request the user who approached you, a kind WP:Goodfaith and avoidance of personalizing content disagreement. On WP I have been always reasonably civil and polite. I do not engage in revert wars. I do not personalize issues and just focus on resolving content disagreement on respective talk pages as per WP policies and processes to the best extent I understand.
Some users may have disagreement here and there, which might need talk page discussions focused on content disagreement resolution but most of my content is reasonably sourced. At times some users have had reservations about tone and grammar of some content but usually that is residual effect of sticking around what original source, same time to get out of copyright grammar may be slightly compromised at times. To address these two issues on my own I keep sending copy edit help requests to other users in neutral manner,at times delays too happen, but most times I do get the help, .
I do have progressive POVs and also I am a skeptic (as note on my user page), so it is usual for me to take encyclopedic note of dogmatism and related criticism. Same time I am an inclusivist so wherever possible and sources are available I do take note of even conservative views, or at least put a template on own requesting expansion of the section for conservative opinions or opinions which I have not covered.
I am student of South Asian studies so good amount of focus is around South Asian topics but I have been consistent in doing global coverage as time permits. I have been taking up feminist an women's rights issues in India and Pakistan both and also global. Similarly superstition related issues I have taken for every dogma. Only that some of my drafts got deleted due to six month limitation, I shall revive those as I get time to update them. (If not in big way at least in smaller way I have helped even religious articles of all religions constructively, though I am not fan of dogmatic religiosities. Also, at least in my small ways, I have helped users of diverse South Asian and global background without discriminating)
One problem with superstition related articles is definition of superstition in main article is not getting stabilized. Again in many smaller human communities information sources may be limited. Where better standard of sources are there I give preference to them.
Last but not least I give detail replies to keep record straight, as I have written this reply, but again I am criticized for length of reply, wherever possible I do provide briefs or synopsis of my own replies to avoid inconvenience of users.
After saying all above I am a human after all and my have my limitations, I am respectful and reasonably open to suggestions. Please feel free to suggest. I will also come back to you for your valuable guidance.

Religious education in Kerala

Notice that you are now subject to an arbitration enforcement sanction

The following sanction now applies to you:

topic banned from any references to the intersection of Pakistan and Feminism broadly construed

You have been sanctioned per this discussion on WP:AE

This sanction is imposed in my capacity as an uninvolved administrator under the authority of the Arbitration Committee's decision at Wikipedia:Requests for arbitration/India-Pakistan#Final decision and, if applicable, the procedure described at Wikipedia:Arbitration Committee/Discretionary sanctions. This sanction has been recorded in the log of sanctions. If the sanction includes a ban, please read the banning policy to ensure you understand what this means. If you do not comply with this sanction, you may be blocked for an extended period, by way of enforcement of this sanction—and you may also be made subject to further sanctions.

You may appeal this sanction using the process described here. I recommend that you use the arbitration enforcement appeals template if you wish to submit an appeal to the arbitration enforcement noticeboard. You may also appeal directly to me (on my talk page), before or instead of appealing to the noticeboard. Even if you appeal this sanction, you remain bound by it until you are notified by an uninvolved administrator that the appeal has been successful. You are also free to contact me on my talk page if anything of the above is unclear to you. RegentsPark (comment) 22:45, 8 October 2022 (UTC)

Bookku, to clarify the above in case there is any confusion, you only need avoid editing where Pakistan and feminism intersect. Feminism elsewhere (India, etc.) is fine. Pakistan on non-feminism topics is fine. Avoid anything gender related and Pakistan and you'll be good.--RegentsPark (comment) 15:20, 18 October 2022 (UTC)

Discussion notification: Clarification regarding details of your ban

Hi Bookku,

If I see correctly, you are currently affected by a ban. In the description of the ban, a restriction is described that appears to prohibit you from appealing the ban earlier than six months.

I have noticed this restriction (six months before appealing) at WP:AELOG/2022. As I'm uncertain about whether such a restriction may be made at all, I have asked for advice at WP:ARCA#Clarification_request:_Appeal_restrictions_as_part_of_discretionary_sanctions.

If you agree with what is being said there, I think you can safely ignore this notification. If the arbitrators decide that the restriction is lifted, you'll be notified separately. You are welcome to provide an own statement too, though.

If you can't edit the page, please have a look at the instruction box at the top of the page for an e-mail option.

Best regards,
~ ToBeFree (talk) 21:16, 2 November 2022 (UTC)

Change regarding a previous sanction

Following a clarification request regarding appeal restrictions as part of discretionary sanctions, a sanction placed against you has been amended to remove a previous restriction regarding your ability to appeal. The archived request can be viewed here.

hi i wanted to inform to that aurat does not mean women in sorani kurdish Gerçois (talk) 12:09, 22 February 2023 (UTC)

@Gerçois Please help me understand, According to you 'afret' or 'Afrat' word is not used in Sorani Kurdish or it means some thing else? If it means women then what is etymology of word 'afret' according to you? What are linguist opinions about etymology of 'afret'?
Please also see Wikt:ئافرەت the English Wiktionary has references besides I have used reference in the article. And as far as I remember I had tried to contact Sorani Kurdish users.
I am not likely to update the draft as of now but I will keep in mind our discussions whenever I will update that one. Actually I am waiting for expert in Persian language of 8th and 9th century AD, if you know any one you can help . Bookku (talk) 13:47, 22 February 2023 (UTC)
I'm a native sorani speaker as far as i know women is jin or gin in Sorani I will try to ask if ئافرەت(afrat) my family if it exists in sorani
as for an expert in Persian language of 8th and 9th century AD Unfortunately, I don't know any expert Gerçois (talk) 15:34, 22 February 2023 (UTC)
@Gerçois Please do ask your family members (preferably from previous older generation) and also try to get some information from professor of linguistics in middle eastern languages from near by college if possible.
My impression about Kurdish languages issues is all the countries where it is spoken have tried to assimilate Kurdish people by playing down their linguistic culture. Already many local languages vocabulary is getting lost due to increased usage of bigger international languages. Hence I request to check with older generation and college professors.
i do not want to prove what is not there in Sorani Kurdish and I am not in hurry to bring that draft in main article space. You take your time for proper search and keep me informed. Thanks for your constructive communication, look forward to further feedback as and when possible to you. Bookku (talk) 15:55, 22 February 2023 (UTC)
I will ask my mother
it is true that all the countries where it is spoken have tried to assimilate Kurdish people by playing down their linguistic culture Gerçois (talk) 16:11, 22 February 2023 (UTC)
Ohh my god I'm so sorry I didn't sleep very much last night I Just thought about it afret is women jin is wife I'm sorry my brain wasn't thinking right Gerçois (talk) 17:46, 22 February 2023 (UTC)
@Gerçois Sorry if you were so surprised. Just I checked one January 2015 research paper co-authored by 'Ergin Öpengin' (Probably who now works with University of Kurdistan). It states ".. The adjectival meanings associated with the forms jin or afret (both ‘woman’) are diametrically opposed to those of pyaw .."
Bookku (talk) 05:01, 23 February 2023 (UTC)
thanks for the pdf will look into it 👍 Gerçois (talk) 11:48, 23 February 2023 (UTC)

Ursula Barry moved to draftspace

An article you recently created, Ursula Barry, is not suitable as written to remain published. It needs more in-depth coverage about the subject itself, with citations from reliable, independent sources in order to show it meets WP:GNG. It should have at least three, to be safe. And please remember that interviews, as primary sources, do not count towards GNG.(?) Information that can't be referenced should be removed (verifiability is of central importance on Wikipedia). I've moved your draft to draftspace (with a prefix of "Draft:" before the article title) where you can incubate the article with minimal disruption. When you feel the article meets Wikipedia's general notability guideline and thus is ready for mainspace, please click on the "Submit your draft for review!" button at the top of the page.Onel5969 TT me 12:24, 7 March 2023 (UTC)

AFD participation

Hi Bookku, I don't agree with your evaluation in Wikipedia:Articles for deletion/Pullman Flatiron Building, but I appreciate your participating there and reasoning with guidelines. A suggestion, if you're in more AFDs: if you're making a comment without voting, start off with "*Comment" (without the double quote marks). If you're making a "not-vote" (also known as "!vote", which is a vote, really, but an AFD is not a majority voting process), then start off with one specific choice using a standard term such as "*Keep" or "*Merge" or "*Redirect" or "*Delete". If you start off that way, then you can later see how you are doing in AFDs, or at least how well your !votes matched up to final results, using the wp:AFDSTATS tool. For example, see how I am doing recently, which currently shows me making some votes on the diagonal, e.g. 17 recent "keep" votes where the articles were indeed kept, and also some !votes off the diagonal, e.g. one where I chose "merge" yet the result was "keep". The report applied to your username does show your !voting in 8 recent AFDs. But it doesn't show a !vote for you in the not-yet-finished Pullman Flatiron Building one because your !vote is not formatted in a way that the program can read.

Anyhow, I am glad you are here and participating. cheers, --Doncram (talk,contribs) 16:54, 9 February 2023 (UTC)

@Doncram: WP is encyclopedia and IMO decisions should largely based on rationality and not democratic pressure. Hence my participation in most discussions is limited to comment without expectation of vote getting counted. I try to share rationals upto my understanding, club (i.e. add) in long duration to my list and use for relevant policy improvement discussions in due course of time. I am much less interested in vote getting counted either way. Still thanks for your helpful friendly message, quite a few things I was unaware of, those I will take note and try to improve upon. Happy ediring and cheers Bookku (talk) 17:44, 9 February 2023 (UTC)
Great, it seems to me that you do understand how decisions are supposed to work here. Yes, your comments giving reasoning are helpful, whether or not you put in a "!vote". And some persons dislike the AFD scoring system and other counting systems because they could contribute to editors trying too hard just to get good scores. I do find it helpful though to go back and see my past !votes in AFDs. I am more proud of having had a significant effect in many AFD discussions (where the !voting was going one way, then I came in and commented and it seemed my views influenced other editors and changed the final outcome) than I am about having a good "score". Changing others' opinions is not tallied up by the wp:AFDSTATS tool.
Also, for what it's worth, I am considered an "inclusionist" rather than a "deletionist" here, are you familiar with those terms yet? You can see see that in the AFDSTATS for me, here is report on my last 500 AFDs. I simply am more interested in participating in AFDs where it seems to me that an article can and should be saved. Oh i see on your User page that you consider yourself to be an Exopedian....i don't think I've heard of that before. Oh, hmm, maybe you prefer to be cold and aloof, while my posting here is perhaps too warm and friendly for your taste! Sorry if I might have bothered you! --Doncram (talk,contribs) 18:24, 9 February 2023 (UTC)
@Doncram Sorry for such a delayed reply. When I read, your above comment I smiled and kept quiet for brevity and avoidance of argument.
As an Exopedian certainly I prefer to give precedence to ".. the philosophy of focusing on the encyclopedic side of Wikipedia (articles and related content) .." and less of WP:DRAMA
What you missed is first sentence on my user page which says "Friendly inclusive in me expects far more travelers in the endless journey of encyclopedic endeavors, .."
I am also very much inclusivist in WP terms. Once in a while I participate in discussions beyond political or religious polarized drama since I believe we can discuss non-polarized topics more calmly. Referring to calm non-polarized discussions in policy discussions may help better neutrality.
Why I made a point to reply is the last sentence in your observations ".. while my posting here is perhaps too warm and friendly for your taste! .." who writes like this? :) Bookku (talk) 16:12, 29 March 2023 (UTC)

Blocked?

The only UTRS ticket I saw for your username was in Sept. What message do you receive? Can you copy it here? -- Deepfriedokra (talk) 07:16, 14 April 2023 (UTC)

@Drmies: can you see anything useful? -- Deepfriedokra (talk) 07:17, 14 April 2023 (UTC)
User:Deepfriedokra, is it still worth looking? Drmies (talk) 14:52, 14 April 2023 (UTC)
@Drmies: Thanks. I guess it's fixed now. -- Deepfriedokra (talk) 15:00, 14 April 2023 (UTC)
This time I could not complete the process of UTRS since the form kept UTRS form continued showing error saying IP address is not mentioned even after I mentioned the IP address given in the blocking notice. Idk why did that happen. Bookku (talk) 07:23, 14 April 2023 (UTC)
You edited yesterday, but what block message do you get when you try to edit? Can you copy the message here? -- Deepfriedokra (talk) 07:26, 14 April 2023 (UTC)
UTRS message was similar to the like one in previous i.e Sept. I can not copy paste now probably since time to lapse the block was around - initially I thought you only unblocked me on request.
I was all the way confused since initially I thought I made some unknown mistake while signing in mentorship. :)
What I need to do so the same problem does not recur again to me? Bookku (talk) 10:51, 14 April 2023 (UTC)
You've been editing today, so you are not blocked. If you find yourself auto-blocked again, copy the block notice and place it on your talk page with an unblock request. -- Deepfriedokra (talk) 10:54, 14 April 2023 (UTC)
Sure, many thanks Bookku (talk) 11:07, 14 April 2023 (UTC)
