[edit] Syriacs/miniproject

Also, based on the artices that you've been editng I'm guessing you're Assyrian, or someone who knows about the Assyrians. Please consider joining Syriacs/miniproject. (Look at the bottom of the page) Thanks. --Khoikhoi 02:49, 20 January 2006 (UTC)

[edit] List of Assyrian villages

Hi. Generally, we don't have page titles with "/"s in them because it is unencyclopedic. I think the current title is fine. Also, please don't move pages by copying and pasting. Use the "move" button right next to the "history" tab and the "edit this page" tab. Thanks. --Khoikhoi 07:06, 21 January 2006 (UTC)

[edit] Image Copyright

Hi A2raya07,

I noticed that you uploaded some images. Keep in mind that you have to state a source and the image's copyright status (you can do that by adding an image copyright tag). If you don't then someone will delete them. Just letting you know. --Khoikhoi 05:38, 22 January 2006 (UTC)

[edit] Small articles

Hi! Short articles are welcome, but single (and incomplete) sentences aren't really articles. As a rule of thumb, a short article should have at least three good, informative sentences. Simply saying "so-and-so is an Assyrian village" is something that a potential user researching the subject already knows. Hope this helps. - Lucky 6.9 06:04, 23 January 2006 (UTC)

[edit] To my Assyrian brothers and sisters

===>A small gift that may interest you It's a userbox and regional category. Please feel free to change the wording to include Chaldeans, Syriacs, etc. You may want to add yourself. And before you ask, no, I am not ethnically Assyrian, and I use "brothers and sisters" in a more spiritual sense. If you are wondering why I do not have the Independent Assyrian template on my user page, it is simply because an Assyrian homeland isn't a viable option, and I don't want more of you killed in Iraq, frankly. Plus, if Kurdistan is ever established, an independent Assyrian is essentially impossible. God bless Assyria. -Justin (koavf), talk 03:17, 1 February 2006 (UTC)

[edit] God bless you for being an Assyrian.

Hey there, I need some help tracking down a word of unclear origin. I need to know if Aramaic has the word "ghoul" and what it is. The word exists in arabic as "ghul" with the gutteral "gh" sound like the French "r". The "u" as in the "oo" sound in "woo". The l being...well- like the l sound in just about any language. I suspect the word exists in Aramaic as "gwl" or something equivalent. Even if it does not mean ghoul, if it means anything remotely close to "to seize" or "to retrieve"- it may be the actual origin of the word ghoul and not Arabic or Persian. I understand your reading/writing abilities are slightly impaired, though you probably have greater access to people who know the language than I do. Any bit of help is appreciated, most english language dictionaries cite Persian as the source, sometimes Arabic, never Aramaic. Thanks Angrynight 22:18, 1 March 2006 (UTC)

[edit] Tanslate Assyrian Wikipedia

Hi, you have to become Admin, then you can translate the interface messages here: http://arc.wikipedia.org/wiki/Special:Allmessages --Erdal Ronahi 10:50, 3 March 2006 (UTC)

Request it here: http://meta.wikimedia.org/wiki/Requests_for_permissions You should request "bureaucrat" status, but at least admin. And please specify an email adress in your prefs, then write me via mail. I don't look here often. --Erdal Ronahi 16:47, 6 March 2006 (UTC)



[edit] Reply

Hi A2raya07,

I suggest you poste a comment at Administrators' noticeboard/Incidents, that way the admin's can be notified. You could also try contacting individual admins - some I know off the top of my head are El C, Nlu and Golbez. --Khoikhoi 05:39, 5 April 2006 (UTC)

No problem, let me know if you need help with anything else. --Khoikhoi 21:35, 5 April 2006 (UTC)

[edit] Akitu Correction

shlama;

I corrected your change to the akitu article, and i'd like to explain why. Assyrian new year always occurs on the first day of spring, the vernal equinox. However, this is not set to a specific date, although it usually happens on March 20/21. We call it Kha'b Nisan, becasue nisan was the first month of the calendar. However, a lot assyrians incorrectly assume the month Nisan is synonymous with April, which it is not. Hope all is well and keep up the good work.

[edit] Basma ganukh!

It's good to see someone in Junior High with this much interest in their people. Keep up the good work. I wish my little brother was more interested in the subject.King Legit

A2raya07, your doing a great job too khon. I think we should start a page called History of the Assyrians, just like how the Kurds created History of the Kurds page. What do you think? Chaldean 03:22, 21 May 2006 (UTC)
Bro, come take a look at this : [1] Chaldean 03:01, 5 June 2006 (UTC)

[edit] Cheese

Hi I run a site that collects the word cheese in many languages (http://cheese.wonderal.com). I was wondering if you could tell me what cheese is in Assyrian? Thanks! -- Al™ 06:49, 26 August 2006 (UTC)

[edit] Roomrama

Hi! It looks like you're trying to move one or more pages. However, please stop doing that this way - the new name of the page might be good, but Wikipedia has another procedure for moving pages. Look at Help:Renaming (moving) a page: you need to use the move tab, and not cut and paste. Cut and paste moves don't take the edit history with them and thus violate the GDFL copyright terms. Also, in some cases, when the move might be controversial, you might first want to discuss the move on the article's talk page. If a move is not possible because a page with the new name already exists, go to Wikipedia:Requested moves. Thanks! —Khoikhoi 01:46, 8 September 2006 (UTC)

[edit] Proposal to merge Shamizdin with Şemdinli

Hi! Can you please give your input at Talk:Şemdinli? Thanks a lot. —Khoikhoi 03:23, 9 September 2006 (UTC)

[edit] Edits to Nochiya (disambiguation)

Please, read MOS:DP before reverting my edits to Nochiya (disambiguation). Where in the manual do you see hyphens in place of commas? Where do you see "in addition may refer to" instead of "may also refer to"? And please, the disambiguation page is intended for things that may be confused with the title, not a general "everything related to" portal-type thing. I.e., Nestorianism in Nochiya would not fit in Nochiya (disambiguation) because nobody would confuse a particular religion in an area with the actual area. If you're looking for "Nochiya", there's a slim chance you're looking for Nestorianism in Nochiya. It's akin to having Islam in Saudi Arabia in a disambiguation page for Saudi Arabia. --334 15:24, 29 September 2006 (UTC)

[edit] Gawar and Yüksekova

Hi, I think the article about Gawar should br merged into Yüksekova because they are the same places. And ofcourse the Assyrian name and importance of the city should be included in the merged article.--Hattusili 06:48, 3 November 2006 (UTC)

[edit] Various articles

If there are no solid references, tags will stay. Secundo, there won't be any pages of any "unofficial sub-districts". Wikipedia is not a place for spam.. For official administrative sub-divisions of countries, the maps of that country are a basis, however remember that: a) official names are to be used and b) if there are claims of "unofficial" subdistricts, they have to sourced by solid and hard-rock evidences, along with arguments as to why they should have a seperate article instead of being merged to the relevant article of the official administrative sub-division. This article will either be AfDed speedily for spam, or merged to the Semdinli article pretty soon. Wikipedia is not a forum, blog or a toy, please keep that in mind and watch for civility. Accusing someone of "acting like a child" is a WP:NPA violation.. Thank you.. Baristarim 17:11, 8 December 2006 (UTC)

Wrong.. Please watch for civility, don't assume and keep the accusations to a minimum. The only reason I am marking that article is there are not enough references. I have dropped the ref tag, and put an OR tag instead. You have also created many articles that have absolutely no sources or about towns that do not exist. I have pointed this out to you before. If you wish, you can contact other admins that know me to ask them if I am a "filthy genocide-denying vandal". I will ask you again to watch for civility. The article doesn't have neccessary sources and is not written with a formal encyclopedic tone. Simple. I just launched the Wikipedia:Greek and Turkish wikipedians cooperation board, so spare me the nationalist accusations. There won't be any articles about non-existent towns, or without sources. Baristarim 16:18, 9 December 2006 (UTC)
I am also checking into the images that you have uploaded where you claimed to have owned all of them. If you do not own those images but claimed to do so simply to escape copyright limitations of Wiki, that is a very serious problem. I am checking into all the images that you have uploaded, and it seems to good of a coincidence that you own (not simply have access to: to own implies that you either took the photo, or commissioned for it to be taken) so many rare photographs, some dating back 60 years. I will compile all of them in the upcoming days. I hope that you have been respecting Wikipedia's rules, otherwise that can be a ground for long blocks and bans since allowing Wikipedia the possibility to face copyright violation litigation is a serious issue. Regards Baristarim 18:51, 9 December 2006 (UTC)
Baristarim, as wierd as it sounds, yes these pics are his. He belongs to the Saint Mar Yosip Khnanisho X family and while he did not take all those pics, they are his since his father/grandfather have taken the pics. I have watched your comments lately and I feel like your seem to be always on the offense when you talk about Assyrian issues. Please refrain from this and have good faith about issues that are not as known (ie Assyrian related issues). Chaldean 19:36, 9 December 2006 (UTC)
