Middle East Airlines

Visit the corporate section of MEA's website, and everything there says Middle East Airlines, Air Liban. While the common name of the airline is Middle East Airlines (or just MEA), the specification of the infobox calls for the full legal name. I will wait for your response before I change it back. Dbinder 19:20, 20 January 2006 (UTC)

The IATA and basically every single publication says the full name is Middle East Airlines Air Liban (with or without the comma). However, I really don't feel like arguing about this. Dbinder 23:27, 20 January 2006 (UTC)

Arab League template

Hi, I noticed that you just added {{Arab League}} to the base of each member country. I'm sorry for reverting an effort that must have taken some time, but such templates on country articles have been deprecated for some time, after lengthy discussions at Wikipedia:Wikiproject Countries. Since most countries belong to at least a half dozen international organizations, which creates quite a mess at the bottom of articles when a box is added for each. Another option is a customized international ties template replacing both the geographical and organization boxes, such as is in use on United Kingdom. - SimonP 03:51, 1 February 2006 (UTC)

Those template don't belong either, I've removed a couple of them. - SimonP 04:22, 1 February 2006 (UTC)

If you have not created this media yourself then you need to argue that we have the right to use the media on Wikipedia (see copyright tagging below). If you have not created the media yourself then you should also specify where you found it, i.e., in most cases link to the website where you got it, and the terms of use for content from that page.

If the media also doesn't have a copyright tag then you must also add one. If you created/took the picture, audio, or video then you can use {{GFDL-self}} to release it under the GFDL. If you believe the media qualifies as fair use, please read fair use, and then use a tag such as {{Non-free fair use in|article name}} or one of the other tags listed at Wikipedia:Image copyright tags#Fair_use.

Hello

Hi, It's John here, thanks for visiting the Jieh page on Wikipedia. I am not so sure about the amount of international traffic that the Jieh port can hold. It has the capability of holding a large oil and fuel tanker that may come from other countries to cater for the electricity plant and the gas station on the Jieh southern rim. For successful international traffic, the harbour should be much bigger, and so the Jieh port can only really sustain 1 or 2 major tankers at any one time. Much of the traffic is via smaller ships used locally and mainly for the plants, although I could be mistaken. I have only ever seen 1 large tanker in the harbour at any one time anyway, and even that just once every few weeks. It extrudes the oil through underground pipes in the seabed as it sits in the middle of the harbour. I can add a small section on that, but I need sources on the internet for it, and not much is written on that. I can't use my own knowledge. Thanks anyway! What is your profession? Do you work for MEA-AirLiban ? (Prince Cadmus II 23:30, 16 March 2006 (UTC))

Hello

Hello, I found your username through the profile of Nejmeh Square's pic you uploaded. I just thought of passing by to ask if you're good in Arabic. You see, there are a few pages that need to be expanded, and a lot that need to be created. If you're good in Arabic, you might like to create an account thru Wikipedia Arabic and visit the request page:

http://ar.wiki.x.io/wiki/%D9%88%D9%8A%D9%83%D9%8A%D8%A8%D9%8A%D8%AF%D9%8A%D8%A7:%D9%85%D9%82%D8%A7%D9%84%D8%A7%D8%AA_%D9%85%D9%82%D8%AA%D8%B1%D8%AD%D8%A9

And by the way, it looks like you're having trouble understanding the copyright terms. Listen, the licensing drop-down menu does not have all the options that are required at some cases. If you need any advice, contact me. - Qasamaan (Talk) 06:48, 1 December, 2006 (UTC)

Cyprus

Again, all of your links point to political/human/cultural/emotional/historic leanings and preferences. Which are perfectly valid, but not applicable in the context of destinations. Physically, Europe does have "boundaries", including the Urals, the Caucasus mountains, the eastern Mediterranean, etc. The example of Greece is incorrect as well. A few of its islands might be closer to Asia than to Athens, but that does not make the whole country Asian. Will you consider France to be a South American nation because French Guiana is a large part of its territory? Or will you call Israel a European nation because it chose to join the European Olympic Association and because its teams play in the European football leagues? Whatever Cyprus' political leanings may be, it is physically located in Europe. Look at any map! The whole country is about 40 miles off the Asian coast of Turkey. Not just a couple of its little islands. And also see here: http://en.wiki.x.io/wiki/Template:Countries_of_Europe (note that the template is unchanged for a long time, with zero edits by me). See the notations under each country listed. What does it say for Cyprus? "Entirely in West Asia but having socio-political connections with Europe". Also, just because you don't like UN groupings one day, and physical locations the next day, doesn't make them wrong! My premise is basic: physical location, for the simple reasons that they are factually correct, and they leave politics out of it! The other day some users were arguing that Russia shouldn't be included in Europe, because the majority of its territory is in Asia. What would you do with that? Jasepl (talk) 19:43, 24 July 2009 (UTC)

Cyprus has long been considered to be in Europe well before it joined the European Union. The boundaries of Europe you mention are not physical, but were chosen based on human geography standards. Please do some research on the European continent, it's a boundaries are arbitrary and are based on societal and cultural standards. Physically, Europe is a peninsula of Asia just as Alaska is a peninsula of North America. Cyprus has absolutely no physical distinction between Europe and Asia. It lies in the Mediterranean Sea and that is why it is often called a Eurasian country. Whether it lies in Europe or Asia has nothing to do with physical geographic boundaries, there just aren't any. The Greek Isles are considered to be in Europe. It doesn't matter whether they are closer to Asia than to Athens. Europe's boundaries are largely drawn arbitrarily. Your example about French Guiana is flawed, countries can span multiple continents, just as Turkey and Russia do. Football associations do not classify what continent a country is in. The fact that Cyprus is closer to the Asian mainland than the European mainland is irrelevant. Rhodes is much closer to Asia Minor (Turkish mainland) than the European mainland, but it is considered part of Europe, not Asia. That template states Cyprus is in West Asia based on the UN's geoschemes. Please do some research on the UN's geoschemes. They do not follow traditional schemes of continents. They don't even consider North America and South America as separate continents, they group them under "The Americas" region. The Turkish portion of Thrace is classified as under Western Asia, even though it is well recognized as part of Europe forming the Turkish portion of Europe. The Sinai Peninsula in Egypt which is in Asia, is classified by the UN geoscheme as part of the North African subregion along with the rest of Egypt. ALL of Russia is under the UN's Eastern Europe subregion. Vladivostok and Kamchatka Peninsula are universally recognized as part of Asia and not Europe! The UN's geoscheme is drawn for statistical purposes and do not follow the traditional definition of continents and regions.

Please take a look here:

http://up.wiki.x.io/wikipedia/commons/0/08/United_Nations_geographical_subregions.png

By the way, your earlier response about Central America not being in North America is incorrect. Central America very much is classified as a part of North America. The Panama/Colombian border separates North and South America although some advocate for the Panama Canal to be the boundary. MEA707 (talk) 21:08, 24 July 2009 (UTC)

Yet again you're using a political grouping as a basis for your argument. Which, while all well and good, is not valid in this context. The UN may have grouped Siberia in Russia and Thrace in Asia - but that is so that a country does not get split between two groupings. It is a political/logical grouping.

All of the countries you are listing as your examples lie in two continents: Turkey, Russia, Egypt, etc. Cyprus is not such a country. As for Rhodes, it's just one little portion of a much larger country. Should I put down France under North America then?

Cyprus is a member of the EU - whatever their reasons may be. Israel has joined several European organisations for political reasons. Tomorrow Iceland may decide to join the Organisation of African states because of some newfound love for the Tutsi people. That doesn't mean the countries physically moved, does it? They remain located where they always have been. In the case of Cyprus, that is Asia.

Jasepl (talk) 20:49, 24 July 2009 (UTC)

I'm not using political groups as a basis for my argument. I'm going by the traditional definition of the world's 7 continents and Cyprus is classified as part of Europe in this traditional definition. The UN's geoschemes do not represent the UN's views on the world's continents. Please do some research. The UN's geoschemes are created by the UN's statistical division and are groups made for statistical purposes, this is why they combine countries that are considered in multiple continents as part of one sub region, Russia being the classic example. The UN surely does not view the entire Russian Federation as part of "Eastern Europe." They have classified it as such for STATISTICAL purposes. Again, please do some research on what the UN's geoschemes are all about. France under North America? Where on Earth did you get that from? Because of their possession of Saint Pierre and Miquelon? Again, countries can span multiple continents. The French mainland is in Europe, but French Guiana is in South America and Saint Pierre and Miquelon is in North America. Membership in political organizations does not define what continent a country lies on. Cyprus has been considered part of Europe long before it joined the EU in 2004 and has been classified as such for cultural and societal reasons.

Your argument about Cyprus being closer to the Asian mainland is flawed. Iceland is closer to North America than it is to Europe, so I guess that means Iceland is not a European country, but a North American country? MEA707 (talk) 21:08, 24 July 2009 (UTC)

and you're back to the same thing: "Cyprus has been ... classified as such for cultural and societal reasons."

Whoever argued against that? Political/human/cultural/emotional/historic leanings and preferences are lovely. But that doesn't do anything for physical location. Jasepl (talk) 05:13, 25 July 2009 (UTC)

You keep insisting that Cyprus is physically located in Asia. There is nothing to suggest that it is physically located in Asia and not in Europe or that it physically located in Europe and not in Asia. It's an island in the Mediterranean Sea. There are no physical attributes to show that it is in one and not the other. Physically, it is in Eurasia. Please check the Cyprus page, you'll see it is labeled a Eurasian country. Furthermore, if you check the categories below, you will see that it is listed under the Islands of Asia and Islands of Europe categories. Cyprus' geographical position is a bit complicated. Physically, geographers regard it as a Eurasian country, but politically/culturally/societal it is without a doubt European and for that reason, it is considered to be a European country. Please do some research on the concept of Europe as a continent. It's not your typical continent like Africa, Australia, or North and South America are. Europe is a continent based on political/societal grounds. The Ural Mountains, Caucasus Mountains, and the Bosphorus were chosen arbitrarily. The conventional definition of a continent is a large landmass surrounded by water. Europe does not fit this conventional definition. Physically, it is a massive peninsula in Eurasia.

Here is a great article in Encyclopedia Britannica about Europe. It specifically talks about Cyprus' status.

Please note also that since we are talking about an airline destination page. Nearly all airlines serving Cyprus treat it as a European destination. British Airways for example which has a strong operation in Cyprus treats it as part of its European network with flights assigned a European flight number (BA 6XX like ATH and IST versus BA 1XX for its its Middle Eastern routes such as CAI, TLV, DXB) and European inflight service (Club Europe, not Club World). MEA also treats Cyprus as a European destination. MEA's flights to/from Larnaca are ME 261/261. ME 2XX flight numbers are assigned for Europe flights only.MEA707 (talk) 19:52, 25 July 2009 (UTC)

And BA's flights to Tripoli follow their European numbering. I guess Libya just became European. AF's Tel Aviv flights follow their European numbering logic too. I suppose Israel is now in Europe. But wait! BA numbers their Tel Aviv flights according to their intercontinental format. Whatever will we do now? Oh, and Delta includes Bombay in their European network. So add India to the list of countries in Europe! Jasepl (talk) 21:42, 25 July 2009 (UTC)

I'll give you BA's numbering of its flights to Tripoli. BA's North African service (excluding Egypt) is included in their Europe network. I'm well aware that AF's TLV flights are part of their European operations. They are one of the few if not only European carriers that includes TLV as part of their European operations, the rest treat TLV as part of their Middle Eastern operations. Regarding Delta, no, BOM is not included in their European network. DL doesn't have a formal flight numbering scheme. Some of its Europe flights are DL 1XX, some are just DL 0XX. DL's EZE flights are DL 1XX. There's no formal numbering scheme that distinguishes between European and Asian flights for DL. Tokyo and Seoul both have a DL 0XX flight number just like some European flights. MEA707 (talk) 01:28, 26 July 2009 (UTC)

Non-free rationale for File:Portofbeirut.jpg

Thanks for uploading or contributing to File:Portofbeirut.jpg. I notice the file page specifies that the file is being used under non-free content criteria, but there is not a suitable explanation or rationale as to why each specific use in Wikipedia is acceptable. Please go to the file description page, and edit it to include a non-free rationale.

If you have uploaded other non-free media, consider checking that you have specified the non-free rationale on those pages too. You can find a list of 'file' pages you have edited by clicking on the "my contributions" link (it is located at the very top of any Wikipedia page when you are logged in), and then selecting "File" from the dropdown box. Note that any non-free media lacking such an explanation will be deleted one week after they have been tagged, as described on criteria for speedy deletion. If the file is already gone, you can still make a request for undeletion and ask for a chance to fix the problem. If you have any questions, please ask them at the Media copyright questions page.

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.

Disputed non-free use rationale for File:MEAGlogo.svg

Thank you for uploading File:MEAGlogo.svg. However, there is a concern that the rationale provided for using this file on Wikipedia may not meet the criteria required by Wikipedia:Non-free content. This can be corrected by going to the file description page and adding or clarifying the reason why the file qualifies under this policy. Adding and completing one of the templates available from Wikipedia:Non-free use rationale guideline is an easy way to ensure that your file is in compliance with Wikipedia policy. Please be aware that a non-free use rationale is not the same as an image copyright tag; descriptions for files used under the non-free content policy require both a copyright tag and a non-free use rationale.

If it is determined that the file does not qualify under the non-free content policy, it might be deleted by an administrator within a few days in accordance with our criteria for speedy deletion. If you have any questions, please ask them at the media copyright questions page. Thank you. —Cryptic 01:10, 30 April 2016 (UTC)

Speedy deletion nomination of BeIN Sports (MENA)

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 BeIN Sports (MENA), 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 "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, then please contact the deleting administrator. The Banner talk 10:41, 15 February 2017 (UTC)

Nomination of BeIN Sports (MENA) for deletion

A discussion is taking place as to whether the article BeIN Sports (MENA) is suitable for inclusion in Wikipedia according to Wikipedia's policies and guidelines or whether it should be deleted.

The article will be discussed at Wikipedia:Articles for deletion/BeIN Sports (MENA) until a consensus is reached, and anyone is welcome to contribute to the discussion. The nomination will explain the policies and guidelines which are of concern. The discussion focuses on high-quality evidence and our policies and guidelines.

Users may edit the article during the discussion, including to improve the article to address concerns raised in the discussion. However, do not remove the article-for-deletion notice from the top of the article. The Banner talk 10:21, 16 February 2017 (UTC)

November 2018

Your recent editing history at Paine Field shows that you are currently engaged in an edit war. To resolve the content dispute, please do not revert or change the edits of others when you are reverted. Instead of reverting, please use the talk page to work toward making a version that represents consensus among editors. The best practice at this stage is to discuss, not edit-war. 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.

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. SounderBruce 04:42, 26 November 2018 (UTC)

Reverts were started by you, not me. I made contributions to the page, which you reverted. I agreed to some of your points and included them in my edits, which you still continuously reverted. Therefore the edit war and three-revert violation was started by you, not me. MEA707 (talk) 04:50, 26 November 2018 (UTC)
