  • Using non-RS sources to push an Azerbaijani POV on historic figures that were not Azerbaijani[3] - LouisAragon (talk) 16:11, 6 December 2018 (UTC)Reply
Firstly, proof that that source was non-RS. And secondly here is another source which support POV about his Azerbaijani origin Shahanshah5 (talk) 12:43, 8 December 2018 (UTC)Reply

  • "Show me some rs source which names Baku Khanates as Iranian/Persian/Caucasian khanate"
I literally linked the article (Khanates of the Caucasus) on two occassions where the sources in question are listed. In my edit summary when I reverted you[4] and right here on your talk page (^). And yet you still "ask" for sources?
Yes, I had asked. Because I didn't notice mentioning of Baku Khanate on that page. Shahanshah5 (talk) 09:13, 15 December 2018 (UTC)Reply

You shouldn't so torture yourself, I had asked source only about Baku Khanate but not about all khanates of this region. Shahanshah5 (talk) 15:49, 17 December 2018 (UTC)Reply
Even on your talk page, you reveal that you are deliberately oblivious of WP:NPOV, and WP:TENDENTIOUS, and are only interested in what "you" believe is correct. In other words, looking at the compelling evidence, it appears you are here on a mission. Trust me, this wouldn't look good at ANI. - LouisAragon (talk) 20:45, 14 December 2018 (UTC)Reply
@LouisAragon:, it would be nice of you if you would prove me that I do any of WP:NPOV, WP:TENDENTIOUS, WP:JDL and AGENDA. And could you say what means what "you" believe is correct ? I consider it as insult since you use mentioning me in quotes! And what about ANI, you gave me an good idea, I think we could continue this talking on the page of ones of admins, couldn't we? :) Shahanshah5 (talk) 15:49, 17 December 2018 (UTC)Reply
Let's go to an admin's page, right now! They can look at your edits on the talk page of Bahmanyar(which include battleground comments(Azerbaijanophobia=calling someone a racist), your WP:TENDENTIOUS editing at Safavid dynasty, your inability to read and comprehend English, etc, etc. Yes, please take this to an admin's talk page. --Kansas Bear (talk) 16:50, 22 December 2018 (UTC)Reply
@Kansas Bear:, Before answer your first claim, you prove me that I called LouisAragon as a racist since I didn't say anything about him, but said about his opinion since his sentence was hateful towards Azerbaijan like that "Non-RS nonsense. These are the same "historians" who claim that Iran and Armenia are "ancient Turkic lands", and that anything from Derbent to Urmia, Zanjan, to Kars etc is part of "Bütöv Azərbaycan" that used to exist "since times immemorial". No self respecting Western historian takes these "books" serious. Azerbaijani (SSR and post 1991) and Tsarist/Soviet Russian sources are mostly packed with agenda-loaded propaganda, refuted/debunked by leading scholars in the West." And before answering to second claim, I ask you for proof that my edit Safavids' final date is Tendentious. To answer your third second claim, my English is in B1 level[1], which I think is enough to be an English speaking wiki editor. What about those <etc, etc> - write also them, I wonder about them. Oh, and I don't know how to move section from page to page, so it's nice of you, if you would move this section to one of admins' page. Shahanshah5 (talk) 08:46, 23 December 2018 (UTC)Reply
"but said about his opinion since his sentence were hateful towards Azerbaijan" uh ? So if another Wiki user makes any remark about the unreliable sources you provide on this encyclopedia, then he/she is "hateful towars Azerbaijan" ? Nice job, you just proved that you're not here to build to an encycolpedia, since you can't stand any contradiction.---Wikaviani (talk) (contribs) 10:09, 23 December 2018 (UTC)Reply
@Wikaviani:, it's ok if some user consider any sources as unreliable but it's not ok when they brand the stamp of propaganda on the sources while they haven't high rated RS which also consider the sources as propaganda. Shahanshah5 (talk) 14:07, 23 December 2018 (UTC)Reply

Already shown you (on my talk page) a high RS source supporting the unreliability of many Azerbaijanis/Turkish sources.---Wikaviani (talk) (contribs) 19:47, 23 December 2018 (UTC)Reply

@Wikaviani:, that source isn't high RS source, check its publisher here [1] and also here [2] Shahanshah5 (talk) 08:13, 24 December 2018 (UTC)Reply
And with that nonsensical comment, we have all the evidence we need to prove this particular editor is not here to build an encyclopedia. I see no reason for further dialogue with this individual, any continued disruptive editing should be reported to an Admin. --Kansas Bear (talk) 22:31, 24 December 2018 (UTC)Reply
@Kansas Bear: right now I invite here @EdJohnston: to introduce him all the your evidence. Shahanshah5 (talk) 08:53, 25 December 2018 (UTC)Reply

December 2018 edit

  Please do not add or change content without citing a reliable source. Please review the guidelines at Wikipedia:Citing sources and take this opportunity to add references to the article. There is a long list of articles you edited without providing any reliable sources. Stop it. Thanks. ---Wikaviani (talk) (contribs) 17:46, 15 December 2018 (UTC)Reply

Wikaviani I used non-rs source not knowing, (but that wasn't non-rs at all) only when I just joined English wikipedia, but later I always was using mostly Cambridge, sometimes Oxford sources. So I'm pretty curious about that what kind of list is where is collected long list of articles I edited without providing any reliable sources.Shahanshah5 (talk) 06:22, 16 December 2018 (UTC)Reply
here is an example of unsourced addition.---Wikaviani (talk) (contribs) 17:35, 16 December 2018 (UTC)Reply
I think you need to be more attentively about since there I citated source of Russian Azerbaijan, 1905–1920 The Shaping of a National Identity in a Muslim Community, page 2. Cambridge University Press. Shahanshah5 (talk) 04:21, 17 December 2018 (UTC)Reply
Wikaviani, I would like to see my other edits from that long list. Shahanshah5 (talk) 15:33, 17 December 2018 (UTC)Reply
As far as i can see, your source was outdated.---Wikaviani (talk) (contribs) 16:08, 18 December 2018 (UTC)Reply
Wikaviani, why you think that's outdated? I and again repeat, show me my other edits from that long list of unreliable sourced ones.

Finally. Shahanshah5 (talk) 06:40, 6 January 2019 (UTC)Reply
Hello Shahanshah5, thank you for responding to the ANI complaint. Unfortunately your remarks were deleted by another editor who didn't like that you interleaved your answers with the original complaint. If it's not too much trouble, can you please leave another response, but open up a new section? That way you won't be breaking up the previous text with your changes. Thanks, EdJohnston (talk) 04:05, 9 January 2019 (UTC)Reply
Hello @EdJohnston:, thanks for notification. I would like that has the another editor a Wiki right to deleting my answers? If yes, I would like to read that Wiki policy. Shahanshah5 (talk) 11:13, 10 January 2019 (UTC)Reply
See WP:TPO which says: "Generally, you should not break up another editor's text by interleaving your own replies to individual points.." Instead of interleaving, you can write a single long answer at the bottom of the discussion and quote the individual points that you are replying to. This will make it easier to follow. EdJohnston (talk) 14:31, 10 January 2019 (UTC)Reply
I see, @EdJohnston:. I'll open an section on ANI. Shahanshah5 (talk) 11:10, 11 January 2019 (UTC)Reply

Topic ban edit

Per this ANI discussion, you've been topic banned for six months from "all topics related to the Middle East, the Caucasus region and the Iranian/Turkic world". Please see WP:TOPICBAN for information on what this means. If you wish to appeal the topic ban, you can file a request at WP:AN, but it's usually best to build up a history of constructive edits to other topics before making an appeal. If you have doubts about what articles fall under this topic ban, you should consult an administrator before editing. NinjaRobotPirate (talk) 20:59, 26 January 2019 (UTC)Reply
