Untitled[edit]

Speedy Deletion was requested for the following reason: "This is the name of the PKK's leader, the article is currently being redirected to the PKK article (which sais nothing about him), now whenever people type his name it is decieving because it looks like there is an article about it. This should be deleted and than if someone has some information they can make this article." As reviewing administrator, I respond: this is not a reason for Speedy Deletion. I see there was an earlier sourced version with information about him, and that it is quite possibly enough to show that he is notable, and therefore I have restored it. The external link is a dubious source, but the reference seems probably OK. There should be others to be found. If you disagree, take it to AfD but do not blank the article. If you wish to redirect, get consensus first, and if obtained, add the information and reference to the main article. DGG ( talk ) 11:01, 9 January 2010 (UTC)[reply]

Recruiting Child Soldiers and other stuff: Kathleen's bike edit warring[edit]

@Kathleen's bike has been disruptively editing this article and has reverted adequately referenced statements.

The PKK recruits child soldiers, and I have used the following references to support this in the article : ^[1]^[2]^[3]^[4]

Sources include Amnesty International, UNHCR, Human Rights Watch, as well as a Kurdish source with photographic evidence. How is this poorly referenced?

They further went on to remove the statement: 'targeting Turkish government officials, police and security forces, and injuring and killing civilians within the Rewards for Justice Program'. These are all facts and are referenced here: ^[5] 138.37.254.17 (talk) 11:27, 17 September 2023 (UTC)[reply]

If you still don't understand why the sentence you added is wrong despite it being patiently explained to you on your talk page, then you are beyond redemption. The sentence is not accurate, and will not be added. Kathleen's bike (talk) 11:38, 17 September 2023 (UTC)[reply]

It's obvious who is beyond redemption. You didn't explain nothing. As the acting leader of the PKK for decades, Karayılan would naturally be the person responsible for the terrorist organisation's recruiting of child soldiers. This statement and the sources are thus totally relevant to the article.

Aside from that, why did you remove the other previously existing statements which I just provided a reference for (from the US state department) ??? 138.37.254.17 (talk) 11:44, 17 September 2023 (UTC)[reply]

So you still haven't read, or haven't understood, the sentence you edited? Unbelievable. Kathleen's bike (talk) 11:48, 17 September 2023 (UTC)[reply]
