Please stop. If you continue to add unsourced or poorly sourced content, as you did at Peshmerga, you may be blocked from editing. Shadow4dark (talk) 09:39, 15 December 2023 (UTC)

Can I know why it’s unsourced? It’s literally on ckb Wikipedia KurdianA (talk) 10:22, 15 December 2023 (UTC)

You may be blocked from editing without further warning the next time you vandalize Wikipedia, as you did at Peshmerga. Shadow4dark (talk) 14:54, 15 December 2023 (UTC)

What vandalize it’s literally written that peshmerga was founded in 1946, 2023-1946 is 77! KurdianA (talk) 15:06, 15 December 2023 (UTC)

It’s written 1920/1946 do the subtraction and it gives the same number KurdianA (talk) 15:20, 15 December 2023 (UTC)

Can you remove the warning it literally doesn’t make sense KurdianA (talk) 17:30, 15 December 2023 (UTC)

You have been blocked from editing for a period of 48 hours for persistently making disruptive edits. Once the block has expired, you are welcome to make useful contributions.

If you think there are good reasons for being unblocked, please review Wikipedia's guide to appealing blocks, then add the following text to the bottom of your talk page: {{unblock|reason=Your reason here ~~~~}}.  Daniel Case (talk) 20:28, 15 December 2023 (UTC)

Please do not add or change content, as you did at Mil Mi-17, without citing a reliable source. Please review the guidelines at Wikipedia:Citing sources and take this opportunity to add references to the article. Kurdish indepentence factions may operate the Mi-17, but there is no Kurdish state as of yet. ZLEA _T\^C 15:03, 18 December 2023 (UTC)

Isnt it a reliable resource? KurdianA (talk) 15:08, 18 December 2023 (UTC)

You are misrepresenting a reliable source. Kurdish independence factions are not a Kurdish state, so saying that Kurdistan operates the Mi-17 is highly inaccurate. - ZLEA _T\^C 15:24, 18 December 2023 (UTC)

What do you mean Kurdish Kurdish independence factions? The peshmerga uses it which is the official army of Kurdistan region KurdianA (talk) 15:29, 18 December 2023 (UTC)

It's still not a Kurdish state, so my point still stands. - ZLEA _T\^C 15:30, 18 December 2023 (UTC)

Yeah but I can state it as ‘’Kurdistan Region’’ or ‘’Iraqi Kurdistan’’ KurdianA (talk) 15:32, 18 December 2023 (UTC)

That would be more acceptable. - ZLEA _T\^C 15:36, 18 December 2023 (UTC)

so now I can re-add it in MI-17 right? KurdianA (talk) 15:38, 18 December 2023 (UTC)

I have no objection to it, though non-state operators are not usually included in the main article due to the large number of state operators. It might be better to include it in List of Mil Mi-8/17 operators. - ZLEA _T\^C 15:41, 18 December 2023 (UTC)

Introduction to contentious topics

You have recently edited a page related to the topics of Kurds and Kurdistan, broadly construed, a topic designated as contentious. This is a brief introduction to contentious topics and does not imply that there are any issues with your editing.

A special set of rules applies to certain topic areas, which are referred to as contentious topics. These are specially designated topics that tend to attract more persistent disruptive editing than the rest of the project and have been designated as contentious topics by the Arbitration Committee. When editing a contentious topic, Wikipedia’s norms and policies are more strictly enforced, and Wikipedia administrators have special powers in order to reduce disruption to the project.

Within contentious topics, editors should edit carefully and constructively, refrain from disrupting the encyclopedia, and:

• adhere to the purposes of Wikipedia;
• comply with all applicable policies and guidelines;
• follow editorial and behavioural best practice;
• comply with any page restrictions in force within the area of conflict; and
• refrain from gaming the system.

Editors are advised to err on the side of caution if unsure whether making a particular edit is consistent with these expectations. If you have any questions about contentious topics procedures you may ask them at the arbitration clerks' noticeboard or you may learn more about this contentious topic here. You may also choose to note which contentious topics you know about by using the {{Ctopics/aware}} template.

Best, -- Deepfriedokra (talk) 18:50, 16 December 2023 (UTC)

If you want my advice, this is probably too contentious a subject area for new users. You might want to gain experience editing about non contentious topics first. Best -- Deepfriedokra (talk) 18:55, 16 December 2023 (UTC)

Can I know what’s non contentious KurdianA (talk) 09:03, 17 December 2023 (UTC)

???? KurdianA (talk) 12:57, 17 December 2023 (UTC)

Since you've asked and I blocked you and made you aware that, as per the Arbitration Committee, "Kurds and Kurdistan, broadly construed" are the contentious topic here, I would clarify that non-contentious topics are not affirmatively defined as such; they are what isn't currently considered contentious.

I notice that your edits since the block expired have moved mostly from articles about topics indisputably within the contentious aspect of ARBKURD to articles about military weapons, a topic not inherently contentious ... but your edits have focused on their use by Kurdish peshmerga, which has made them contentious. If you continue in this vein, we will not only have to block you again and for longer, it will be one you can appeal only to the Arbitration Committee.

As you are a new user and you do seem to want to do right by the project, I am making a good-faith effort to help you. What I would suggest is that, if you're interested in Kurdish topics, you move away for now from editing articles about the conflicts or closely related to them to articles about things like Kurdish culture—popular songs or the artists who perform them, works of literature and writers, things like that ... things less likely to make people revert your edits as long as they are properly and reliably sourced.

You might very much want to add yourself to WikiProject Kurdistan as a participant and seek out the assistance of editors there, who are very likely much better versed in Kurdish culture than I am and probably willing to help a newer such editor develop rather than get blocked indefinitely.

CS1 error on Zeravani

Hello, I'm Qwerfjkl (bot). I have automatically detected that this edit performed by you, on the page Zeravani, may have introduced referencing errors. They are as follows:

• A "bare URL and missing title" error. References show this error when they do not have a title. Please edit the article to add the appropriate title parameter to the reference. (Fix | Ask for help)

Please check this page and fix the errors highlighted. If you think this is a false positive, you can report it to my operator. Thanks, Qwerfjkl (bot) (talk) 16:55, 18 December 2023 (UTC)

Using reliable sources

Several of the comments to your talk page have dealt with using reliable sources. Some of the content you have added has been from websites that function as mirrors of Wikipedia. These are generally recognizable by the appearance of Wikipedia-like textual formatting, bracketed citations inline, and bracketed statements like "citation needed". These sorts of websites are prohibited for use as references per WP:CIRCULAR. I have made the relevant reversions.

Additionally, I must add that I agree with other editors: you probably should avoid contentious topics like Kurdistan (which you seem to hold a connection with) until you have more editing experience. If you want to practice editing without a hundred other editors judging your every move, a few good places to start are articles on plants, non-endangered animals, or geology. There are usually highly reliable sources available on these topics and their articles are usually severely underdeveloped. Once you have maybe a month or two of regular editing under your belt, a return to Kurdish topics would be more welcome. However, this is merely advice, so ignoring it carries no direct consequences. ~ Pbritti (talk) 20:55, 18 December 2023 (UTC)

Blocked as a sockpuppet

You have been blocked indefinitely from editing for abusing multiple accounts as a sockpuppet of User:Combatuser1 per the evidence presented at Wikipedia:Sockpuppet investigations/Combatuser1. Note that multiple accounts are allowed, but not for illegitimate reasons, and any contributions made while evading blocks or bans may be reverted or deleted.

If you think there are good reasons for being unblocked, please review Wikipedia's guide to appealing blocks, then add the following text to the bottom of your talk page: {{unblock|reason=Your reason here ~~~~}}.  Spicy (talk) 10:13, 19 December 2023 (UTC)
