[edit] Media of Morocco

Hi Jalil. Thanks for your help on Moroccan media-retaled articles. Still more should be done. You can also visit List of Morocco-related topics. -- Szvest 00:42, 13 October 2006 (UTC) Wiki me up ®

Hi Fayssal, it is my pleasure. Much more needs to be done.--A Jalil 00:46, 13 October 2006 (UTC)
You can add your name and participate ino Wikipedia:WikiProject Morocco and make suggestions when you are free. -- Szvest 00:50, 13 October 2006 (UTC)
Jalil, how can one contact you? Send me an email please. Thanks wikima 11:00, 15 October 2006 (UTC)
Wikima, I did.--A Jalil 15:03, 15 October 2006 (UTC)

[edit] WP:RM

Did you even read this page? It says, in bold:

"Do not discuss moves on this page"

Please stop it. -Justin (koavf)·T·C·M 20:53, 16 October 2006 (UTC)

[edit] Morocco mediation

A request for mediation has been filed with the Mediation Committee that lists you as a party. The Mediation Committee requires that all parties listed in a mediation must be notified of the mediation. Please review the request at Wikipedia:Requests for mediation/Morocco, and indicate whether you agree or refuse to mediate. If you are unfamiliar with mediation, please refer to Wikipedia:Mediation. There are only seven days for everyone to agree, so please check as soon as possible.

While I didn't write the above I implore you to agree to this mediation as it would be almost impossible for Justin to get his case agreed to he has no consesus. If we don't agree to this he will start complaing about you being uncoperative which will be no help at all. Cheers, Aussie King Pin 11:12, 18 October 2006 (UTC)

[edit] Re: History of Western Sahara

Wow Did you read the discussion on talk? What are you doing, Jalil? -Justin (koavf)·T·C·M 22:13, 24 October 2006 (UTC)

[edit] Green March/Greater Morocco

What? I'm guessing that you'll totally ignore me again, but why and how are you claiming that the Greater Morocco ideology has nothing to do with the Green March. What was the justification if not Greater Morocco? -Justin (koavf)·T·C·M 22:01, 25 October 2006 (UTC)

Okay If your thesis is correct, then why is it you didn't add anything about Spain and just blind reverted again? Plus, you didn't actually prove that there is no association between the two; clearly, there is. -Justin (koavf)·T·C·M 22:08, 25 October 2006 (UTC)
The Green March was decided to put pressure on Spain to start negotiations, and when Spain accepted, the marchers were ordered to return when only a fraction of them crossed less than 10 Km inside WS.--A Jalil 22:11, 25 October 2006 (UTC)
Okay again This still does not mean that it is unrelated to the Greater Morocco ideology. Also, you removed a reference that is consistent with your last claim. Why? -Justin (koavf)·T·C·M 22:15, 25 October 2006 (UTC)

[edit] Foreign relations of Western Sahara

That's it You've clearly disregarded discussion, and I'm taking this to RfC. We'll see if other people find scholarship convincing versus random assertions based on Arabicnews.com. -Justin (koavf)·T·C·M 21:02, 30 October 2006 (UTC)

You koavf have closed yor ears and eyes on anything else than Hodges books. They are the only credible sources for you, even though Hodges is openly pro-Polisarian and is for the independence of Western Sahara.--A Jalil 21:05, 30 October 2006 (UTC)
Whatever Jalil, you're not even willing to read it, so who's eyes and ears are closed? ArabicNews.com is clearly biased against the Polisario; should I just reject them out of hand? The issue is not where the biases lie - every source has biases - but what the truth is. If you don't like Hodges biases, that's totally irrelevant; you need to prove that he's unreliable, which you haven't and can't, since his book represents the best scholarship on the issue. If you want to prove him wrong, do better academic research than him. -Justin (koavf)·T·C·M 21:10, 30 October 2006 (UTC)

[edit] Western Sahara flag / coat-of-arms

Hi A Jalil,

Hi, you have been inserting the country infobox with flag and coat of arms on Western Sahara...

Thanks for your message; per here, I've now removed the flag and coat-of-arms from the infobox. Hope this is okay, David Kernow (talk) 11:36, 8 November 2006 (UTC)

[edit] Morocco Mediation

Given that no one has replied to the mediation within the last 17 days, I am closing it as being stale. From a cursory glance, it appears to me that mediation is no longer needed. However, if this is not the case, then you are more than welcome to file a new case. Thanks. On behalf of the Mediation Committee, ^demon[omg plz] 16:21, 1 December 2006 (UTC)

[edit] Morocco/Western Sahara map?

So what's wrong with the maps I putted into the infobox??? --Escondites talk 20:19, 31 December 2006 (UTC)

I can't see anything wrong with the WS map. Regarding Morocco, please check the talk page for details. (Sorry to reply here, I'm in a rush). Asteriontalk 20:22, 31 December 2006 (UTC)
For the WS map, it is better because it is an SVG file, and there's no real difference between the new and the old one, except that the new one has a better quality!--Escondites talk 13:23, 1 January 2007 (UTC)

[edit] RE: North/ern Africa

Hello. No: Western Sahara is not a bona fide state, but the UN definitely acknowledges its presence in its list of territories/regions, and the map depicts it clearly. A territory can refer to any area and, regardless of Western Sahara's status (I'm not debating this), is significant enough to be listed. Thus ... Corticopia 02:53, 20 January 2007 (UTC)

Go ahead and edit the description to reflect a more neutral perspective, then -- I only contend that WS should be listed with the six other major territories ... states, with note that it is not a state but 'disputed'. Corticopia 02:58, 20 January 2007 (UTC)
Great -- thanks! Corticopia 03:07, 20 January 2007 (UTC)

[edit] Response from my talk: "Blind reverting"

Oh stop it. I have not been "blindly" reverting anything, I have been reverting some rather stark POV edits, a few by you and a few by Wikima -- you should equally well consider why it is only Wikipedia's most committed Moroccan-nationalist editors that tend to have problems on these articles... Most of my WP-time has been spent working on Algerian and Mauritanian subjects, not on Morocco-Western Sahara, and thus outside of your scope of interest. Interestingly, I haven't had any conflicts there. Arre 16:05, 6 February 2007 (UTC)
This is so silly I ... well, whatever. If that's the level you want to be on.
  • (1) Feel free to put the poetry back into Allal al-Fassi, for, as I think you know: that was not what I objected to in your edit. It had something to do with borders and whitewashing dictatorship: look and you shall find.
  • (2) As for Algerian borders, there are certainly differences of opinion as to exactly which areas and demarcation lines this would imply. Again, hardly the big issue.
  • (3) Algeria articles: There could be problems with nationalist conspiracy nutcases on Algeria articles too, but there aren't. Or, actually, there was once, with some rabidly aggressive anti-Berber guy. I'm sure you two would've gotten along fine -- you have the same, je ne sais quoi, style, perhaps, of editing.
  • (4) As for me being the Algerian government's paid agent on Wikipedia, it's actually the Elders of Zion who pay me, but good guess.
