Dear Makolli86, argument is on the talk page of the article. I have reverted it back, as you are not allowed to remove other people comments from talk page. Please go to the talk page, and lets discuss this. --Axiomus (talk) 10:59, 16 May 2016 (UTC)Reply

Dear Axiomus, I was not aware of this. I have just commented what you have been writing on the talk page. Hopefully, you would like to contribute and help improving the article. You seem more experienced than me as an editor here on Wikipedia. I am a bit green for the moment, but I am learning every day.

Welcome to Wikipedia!

edit

Hello, Makolli86. Welcome to Wikipedia! Thanks for your contributions. My name is Howicus, and I've been an editor here for some time. Here are a few links to pages you might find helpful:

If you're working on creating a new article, you should take a look at this page on your first article, and use the article wizard here to get started. Also, this page has instructions on how to cite sources, complete with videos.

If all this Wikicode is a little overwhelming, this cheatsheet may help untangle it.

If you're looking for a tutorial of sorts, The Wikipedia Adventure is a good option.

And if you need more help, I'd recommend getting live help at the Wikipedia help chat channel: click here to join. Additionally, you could ask me on my talk page, try the Teahouse (a help page for new users) or click here to ask for help here on your talk page and a volunteer will visit you here shortly

Please remember to sign your messages on talk pages by typing four tildes (~~~~); this will automatically insert your username and the date. Again, welcome, and have fun editing! Howicus (Did I mess up?) 23:52, 20 May 2016 (UTC)Reply

  Hello, I'm Howicus. Your recent edit to the page Serbia appears to have added incorrect information, so I have removed it for now. If you believe the information was correct, please cite a reliable source or discuss your change on the article's talk page. If you think I made a mistake, or if you have any questions, you can leave me a message on my talk page. Thank you. Howicus (Did I mess up?) 23:56, 20 May 2016 (UTC)Reply

I am tired of reading fake informations about Kosovo in Wikipedia. I thought we as editors did our best to write the truth and honest information, but Serbs editors doesn't obviously! So I did what I did as a rebellion! Stop interfering on Kosovo-Albanian pages with fake informations or I will create an army doing the same wirh the Serb pages. I would recommend us all to write the truth and nothing but the truth and respect each others boundaries! Makolli86 (talk) 00:03, 21 May 2016 (UTC)Reply

You will get blocked if you continue this behaviour.--Zoupan 00:11, 21 May 2016 (UTC)Reply

  Hello. This is a message to let you know that one or more of your recent contributions, such as the edit you made to Xherdan Shaqiri, did not appear constructive and has been or will be undone. Please take some time to familiarise yourself with our policies and guidelines. You can find information about these at our welcome page which also provides further information about contributing constructively to this encyclopedia. If you only meant to make test edits, please use the sandbox for that. If you think I made a mistake, or if you have any questions, you may leave a message on my talk page. Thank you.

  Please stop your disruptive editing. If you continue to vandalize Wikipedia, as you did at Serbia, you may be blocked from editing. --Zoupan 00:34, 21 May 2016 (UTC)Reply

You currently appear to be engaged in an edit war according to the reverts you have made on Xherdan Shaqiri. 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 that Wikipedia's policy on edit warring states:

  1. Edit warring is disruptive regardless of how many reverts you have made.
  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. Qed237 (talk) 10:56, 21 May 2016 (UTC)Reply

I understand, but to my surprise I am astonished how incorrect and dishonest Serbian editors are writing in Wikipedia about Kosovo. Most of the things they write they write it in favour of Serbia and not what is true and consensus around the world! This is unacceptable and someone should act and do something about this. This is a serious violation and every honest editior here should do something about this major issue! The core essentials of Wikipedia are broken here!Makolli86 (talk) 11:09, 21 May 2016 (UTC)Reply
It does not matter what area an editor comes from, and honestly not that many are from Balkan area (me I am from northern Europe). But, as I said it does not matter and you have to follow wikipedia guidelines and we always lists nation at time of birth, even for historical people. They were born into one country, and that is where they were born. Also with regards to Xherdan Shaqiri he has most recently played for Switzerland national football team and for that reson he is considered a Swiss footballer. And finally you can not complain about others when you make edits like this and clearly tries to push you view. Qed237 (talk) 11:33, 21 May 2016 (UTC)Reply
I tottaly dont angree with you. Check your reference a bit more and you will see that I am right. Most of the editors writing about Kosovo and famous Kosovars are Serbs. They are manipulating with the history.

Shaqiri is a Swiss soccer player, I agree. But still he is born in nowadays Kosovo, former Yugoslavia. EOD. With respect Makolli86 (talk) 11:54, 21 May 2016 (UTC)Reply

 

Your recent editing history at Serbia 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 article's 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. Qed237 (talk) 15:05, 21 May 2016 (UTC)Reply

Both you and I know that you dont want to be blocked, because if you are blocked you can not talk to other editors and explain what is wrong and your view. So please stop re adding and changing the same content over and over again or there is a high risk that you may be blocked from editing. Qed237 (talk) 15:08, 21 May 2016 (UTC)Reply

Why do you keep on threatening me. The only war happening here is created in your head. I am discussing on Serbia Talk page. Since, nobody does reply the critical questions I make, the article is disputed. I have learned here, that it is a violation removing the note without sufficient arguments,Makolli86 (talk) 15:14, 21 May 2016 (UTC)Reply

It is not warrented to add a POV-template when you dont agree with one fact on the article and instead of re-adding you must find consensus. Qed237 (talk) 15:26, 21 May 2016 (UTC)Reply

You have been blocked from editing for a period of 48 hours for edit warring. Once the block has expired, you are welcome to make useful contributions. If you think there are good reasons why you should be unblocked, you may appeal this block by first reading the guide to appealing blocks, then adding the following text to the bottom of your talk page: {{unblock|reason=Your reason here ~~~~}}.

During a dispute, you should first try to discuss controversial changes and seek consensus. If that proves unsuccessful, you are encouraged to seek dispute resolution, and in some cases it may be appropriate to request page protection.  Acroterion (talk) 15:34, 21 May 2016 (UTC)Reply

This edit [1] is intentionally disruptive. If this recurs after this block, you may be blocked indefinitely for disruptive editing. Acroterion (talk) 15:36, 21 May 2016 (UTC)Reply

I corrected my question since you didn't understand it. And now you have deleted this - you should get blocked or what. You are hilarious. Makolli86 (talk) 19:56, 24 May 2016 (UTC)Reply

Hello, you asked for help on Ismet Asllani. You have done a great job as WikiShqip needed this article. Could you please specify what help you need so I or someone else can see what can do? Ktrimi991 (talk) 15:54, 4 June 2016 (UTC)Reply

I made some changes there. If you want to contact me I suggest you using my talk page on WikiShqip or send me an email. The later option can be found at both my talkpage and userpage on WikiShqip. Ktrimi991 (talk) 16:26, 4 June 2016 (UTC)Reply

License tagging for File:Ismet Asllani.jpeg

edit

Thanks for uploading File:Ismet Asllani.jpeg. You don't seem to have indicated the license status of the image. Wikipedia uses a set of image copyright tags to indicate this information.

To add a tag to the image, select the appropriate tag from this list, click on this link, then click "Edit this page" and add the tag to the image's description. If there doesn't seem to be a suitable tag, the image is probably not appropriate for use on Wikipedia. For help in choosing the correct tag, or for any other questions, leave a message on Wikipedia:Media copyright questions. Thank you for your cooperation. --ImageTaggingBot (talk) 03:05, 25 September 2016 (UTC)Reply

File permission problem with File:Ismeti.jpeg

edit
 

Thanks for uploading File:Ismeti.jpeg, which you've attributed to http://gazetablic.com/heroi-ismet-asllani/. I noticed that while you provided a valid copyright licensing tag, there is no proof that the creator of the file has agreed to release it under the given license.

If you are the copyright holder for this media entirely yourself but have previously published it elsewhere (especially online), please either

  • make a note permitting reuse under the CC-BY-SA or another acceptable free license (see this list) at the site of the original publication; or
  • Send an email from an address associated with the original publication to permissions-en@wikimedia.org, stating your ownership of the material and your intention to publish it under a free license. You can find a sample permission letter here. If you take this step, add {{OTRS pending}} to the file description page to prevent premature deletion.

If you did not create it entirely yourself, please ask the person who created the file to take one of the two steps listed above, or if the owner of the file has already given their permission to you via email, please forward that email to permissions-en@wikimedia.org.

If you believe the media meets the criteria at Wikipedia:Non-free content, use a tag such as {{non-free fair use}} or one of the other tags listed at Wikipedia:File copyright tags#Fair use, and add a rationale justifying the file's use on the article or articles where it is included. See Wikipedia:File copyright tags for the full list of copyright tags that you can use.

If you have uploaded other files, consider checking that you have provided evidence that their copyright owners have agreed to license their works under the tags you supplied, too. You can find a list of files you have created in your upload log. Files lacking evidence of permission may be deleted one week after they have been tagged, as described on criteria for speedy deletion. You may wish to read Wikipedia's image use policy. If you have any questions please ask them at the Media copyright questions page. Thank you. Vanjagenije (talk) 06:39, 25 September 2016 (UTC)Reply

Hi, thanks for your info. Here is the evidence that the owner of the photos has given me the full permission to use them here in Wikipedia. The facebook of the owner of the photos: https://www.facebook.com/libuheet.pushkez?ref=br_rs. The person will confirm you my statement. Makolli86 (talk) 08:04, 25 September 2016 (UTC)Reply

As explained above, the permission from the copyright holder needs to be sent to the OTRS team via e-mail. OTRS tram does not look for permission. The editor who uploads a file has to provide a valid permission. Vanjagenije (talk) 14:25, 25 September 2016 (UTC)Reply
Hi again, can you possibly help me with the process to confirm that I have a valid permission since I have difficulties knowing what is needed? I know you have provided me some informations above, but I am not that skilled here in Wikipedia. What I can provide is a written permission from the owner of the photos and send the documentation to OTRS team? As I mentioned before, the photos belong to Libuheet and not any newspapers etc.. Libuheet, as I have been told is a private person, the wife of Ismet Asllani, which I have contacted through facebook. She have given me the permission of writing about her spouse here on Wikipedia and using the oploaded picture of her spouse in the article. Please help me providing all the necessary documentation for the oploaded pictures. BR Makolli86 (talk) 15:16, 25 September 2016 (UTC)Reply
Yes, that is right. The copyright owner has to give a permission, and that permission needs to be sent (by them or by you) to the OTRS team via e-mail. An example of the permission is given at WP:BRP. In the permission, the copyright owner must write that they own the photo (and the exact URL of the photo) and that they release it under the Creative Commons Attribution-ShareAlike 3.0 Unported License. That is the only license accepted by Wikipedia. Vanjagenije (talk) 21:23, 25 September 2016 (UTC)Reply
Thx a lot again for your help. I have send them a mail with the contact informations to the owner. Hopefully this is sufficient. Makolli86 (talk) 18:35, 26 September 2016 (UTC)Reply

René Redzepi

edit

See Wikipedia:Manual of Style/Biographies: The opening paragraph should usually provide context for the activities that made the person notable. In most modern-day cases this will be the country of which the person is a citizen, national or permanent resident, or if the person is notable mainly for past events, the country where the person was a citizen, national or permanent resident when the person became notable. Ethnicity, religion, or sexuality should generally not be in the lead unless it is relevant to the subject's notability. Similarly, previous nationalities or the place of birth should not be mentioned in the lead unless they are relevant to the subject's notability. It is the cooking that makes Redzepi relevant, not where he gets his inspiration from. His descent is properly described in the section "Early life and education".

René Redzepi of Albanian descent

edit

René Redzepi, is Albanian as much as he is Danish. That is a fact and end of discussion. If you don’t like the truth other people does. The word Albanian, should at least once be mentioned in the beginning. I can’t and will not accept anything else but what is a true fact - he is half Albanian.

Kind Regards,
