Welcome! edit

Hello and welcome to Wikipedia. Thank you for your contributions. I hope you like the place and decide to stay. The following links will help you begin editing on Wikipedia:

Please bear these points in mind while editing Wikipedia

The Wikipedia tutorial is a good place to start learning about Wikipedia. If you have any questions, see the help pages, add a question to the village pump or ask me on my talk page. By the way, you can sign your name on Talk and discussion pages using four tildes, like this: ~~~~ (the software will replace them with your signature and the date). Again, welcome!

January 2015 edit

  Hi, and thank you for your contributions to Wikipedia. It appears that you tried to give a page a different title by copying its content and pasting either the same content, or an edited version of it, into another page with a different name. This is known as a "cut-and-paste move", and it is undesirable because it splits the page history, which is legally required for attribution. Instead, the software used by Wikipedia has a feature that allows pages to be moved to a new title together with their edit history.

In most cases, once your account is four days old and has ten edits, you should be able to move an article yourself using the "Move" tab at the top of the page (the tab may be hidden in a dropdown menu for you). This both preserves the page history intact and automatically creates a redirect from the old title to the new. If you cannot perform a particular page move yourself this way (e.g. because a page already exists at the target title), please follow the instructions at requested moves to have it moved by someone else. Also, if there are any other pages that you moved by copying and pasting, even if it was a long time ago, please list them at Wikipedia:Cut-and-paste-move repair holding pen. Thank you.

Vandalising the article "Second Battle of Tikrit" edit

You have repeatedly vandalised the article by providing un-sourced numbers. There are no sources which give the figure of 700 ISIS militants. All the citations mention 13,000 total. If you do not stop vandalising the article I will inform the administrators and you will be blocked. Thank you.

No I am not "vandalising" the page as I had only made one change and that is the number of ISIS killed and probably made an accidental on the ISIS strength that is all. So apologies. Thank you.--0ali1 (talk) 22:24, 13 March 2015 (UTC)Reply

Disambiguation link notification for November 29 edit

Hi. Thank you for your recent edits. Wikipedia appreciates your help. We noticed though that when you edited Iraq News, you added a link pointing to the disambiguation page Independent. 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.

Managing a conflict of interest edit

  Hello, 0ali1. We welcome your contributions, but if you have an external relationship with the people, places or things you have written about in the article ZippCast, you may have a conflict of interest (COI). Editors with a COI may be unduly influenced by their connection to the topic. See the conflict of interest guideline and FAQ for organizations for more information. In particular, please:

  • avoid editing or creating articles related to you and your circle, your organization, its competitors, projects or products;
  • instead propose changes on the talk pages of affected articles (see the {{request edit}} template);
  • when discussing affected articles, disclose your COI (see WP:DISCLOSE);
  • avoid linking to the Wikipedia article or website of your organization in other articles (see WP:SPAM);
  • exercise great caution so that you do not violate Wikipedia's content policies.

In addition, you must disclose your employer, client, and affiliation with respect to any contribution for which you receive, or expect to receive, compensation (see WP:PAID).

Please familiarize yourself with relevant policies and guidelines, especially those pertaining to neutral point of view, sourcing and autobiographies. Thank you. Toddst1 (talk) 16:38, 13 April 2016 (UTC)Reply

Your causing a contradiction, Sept 2015 edit

Sir/madam,
An edit of yours of 28Sep2015 has rendered a Wikipedia article contradictory: see Talk:Foreign involvement in the Syrian Civil War#Contradiction. As you will agree, Wiki articles should never contradict themselves: that would only make us ridiculous in the eyes of our (non-editing) visitors. Please, make an effort to remove the contradiction, caused by you, from that article. --Corriebertus (talk) 06:56, 14 August 2016 (UTC)Reply

Warning regarding Kirkuk Governorate edit

As mentioned, the article is one of several listed under the Disputed territories of Northern Iraq. Removing the link to it under somewhat nebulous reasons of lack of Kurdish internationally-recognized sovereignty is not acceptable. It comes across as rather tendentious on your part. As also mentioned, continuing to edit war over this removal may lead to sanctions. I do not even view this as an ordinary content dispute but, plainly, as disruptive editing. Please be wary of that. Thanks. El_C 17:09, 29 October 2019 (UTC)Reply
