June 2011[edit]

You currently appear to be engaged in an edit war according to the reverts you have made on Greece. Users are expected to collaborate with others and avoid editing disruptively.

In particular, the three-revert rule states that:

Making more than three reversions on a single page within a 24-hour period is almost always grounds for an immediate block.
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 continue to edit war, you may be blocked from editing without further notice. Dr.K. ^{λogosπraxis} 20:04, 1 June 2011 (UTC)[reply]

POV[edit]

Hi. Please stop POV pushing edits in the article Mustafa Kemal Atatürk. That sentence is related with historical fact. So the present official name of the city is not important. The name of that city at the time was Salonica in English language, was Selanik in Ottoman language. We prefer Salonica because here is English Wikipedia. Not to break your heart, I added "(present-day Thessaloniki)". Thank you. Takabeg (talk) 09:30, 17 September 2011 (UTC)[reply]

License tagging for File:MoreasMotorway.JPG[edit]

Thanks for uploading File:MoreasMotorway.JPG. 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) 17:05, 17 September 2011 (UTC)[reply]

Photos[edit]

Nice photos, great job uploading these! I just wanted to say you might consider uploading any further ones on Commons rather than here; that way they can be used on all other wiki projects too.

By the way, about the three above that were tagged by the bot, I assume you just forgot to say "{{self|cc-by-2.5}} rather than "{{cc-by-2.5}}", and these are all really your own photos? We just need an explicit statement of authorship there. Fut.Perf. ☼ 18:16, 18 September 2011 (UTC)[reply]

Thanks! Yes these are all my photos. If i need to do something further please let me know. Nochoje (talk) 18:38, 18 September 2011 (UTC)[reply]

I've begun moving some of it to Commons. You could help if you also added the meta-information in an "information" template, like this:

{{Information
|Description=View of ...
|Source={{own}}
|Date=2010-10-15
|Author=[[User:Nochoje|Nochoje]]
}}

This is helpful for automatized transfer scripts. By the way, did I get the location tag right on commons:File:Volos from Makrinitsa at dusk.JPG :-) ? Fut.Perf. ☼ 09:46, 19 September 2011 (UTC)[reply]

Your edits at Greece[edit]

Please be aware of the WP:3RR rule. Greece is a highly visible article. If you try to insert the same change repeatedly, your efforts will be noticed and may cause unhappiness. It is best to obtain consensus on the article talk page instead of inserting the same change more than once against opposition. Thank you, EdJohnston (talk) 17:36, 12 October 2011 (UTC)[reply]

You have been blocked from editing for a period of 24 hours for edit warring, as you did at Greece. Once the block has expired, you are welcome to make useful contributions. If you would like to be unblocked, you may appeal this block by adding the text {{unblock|reason=Your reason here ~~~~}}, but you should read the guide to appealing blocks first.

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.

The complete report of this case is at WP:AN3#User:Nochoje reported by User:Athenean (Result: 24h). EdJohnston (talk) 03:46, 13 October 2011 (UTC)[reply]

October 2011[edit]

Your recent edits seem to have the appearance of edit warring after a review of the reverts you have made on Peloponnese. Users are expected to collaborate and discuss with others and avoid editing disruptively.

Please be particularly aware, the three-revert rule states that:

Making more than three reversions on a single page within a 24-hour period is almost always grounds for an immediate block.
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 the 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.

Sockpuppetry case[edit]

Your name has been mentioned in connection with a sockpuppetry case. Please refer to Wikipedia:Sockpuppet investigations/Nochoje for evidence. Please make sure you make yourself familiar with the guide to responding to cases before editing the evidence page. Dr.K. ^{λogosπraxis} 14:40, 16 October 2011 (UTC)[reply]

Complaint about your edits at WP:AN3[edit]

See WP:AN3#User:Nochoje and sockpuppet User:79.166.249.44 reported by User:Dr.K. (Result: ). There could be a very long block in your future if you won't negotiate with others about the images you prefer. Wikipedia is a group project, not a solo venture. Thank you, EdJohnston (talk) 18:59, 16 October 2011 (UTC)[reply]

You have been blocked from editing for a period of 1 week for edit warring. Once the block has expired, you are welcome to make useful contributions. If you would like to be unblocked, you may appeal this block by adding the text {{unblock|reason=Your reason here ~~~~}}, but you should read the guide to appealing blocks first.

November 2011[edit]

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

Edit warring is disruptive regardless of how many reverts you have made; that is to say, editors are not automatically "entitled" to three reverts.
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. Dr.K. ^{λogosπraxis} 20:47, 6 November 2011 (UTC)[reply]

Thank you[edit]

For this. I also see a great improvement overall in your edits. It is really appreciated. Take care. Dr.K. ^{λogosπraxis} 17:48, 12 December 2011 (UTC)[reply]

Eastern and Western Europe[edit]

Please could you try to explain to Rejedef on Talk:Eastern Europe#Controversy and Talk:Western Europe#Controversy how her proposed section needs to be changed for it to be acceptable. Merely reverting her edits is not enough.--Toddy1 (talk) 22:09, 3 January 2012 (UTC)[reply]

File source problem with File:Ioanninaold.JPG[edit]

Thank you for uploading File:Ioanninaold.JPG. I noticed that the file's description page currently doesn't specify who created the content, so the copyright status is unclear. If you did not create this file yourself, you will need to specify the owner of the copyright. If you obtained it from a website, please add a link to the page from which it was taken, together with a brief restatement of the website's terms of use of its content. If the original copyright holder is a party unaffiliated with the website, that author should also be credited. Please add this information by editing the image description page.

If the necessary information is not added within the next days, the image will be deleted. If the file is already gone, you can still make a request for undeletion and ask for a chance to fix the problem.

Please refer to the image use policy to learn what images you can or cannot upload on Wikipedia. Please also check any other files you have uploaded to make sure they are correctly tagged. Here is a list of your uploads. If you have any questions or are in need of assistance please ask them at the Media copyright questions page. Thank you. -- ТимофейЛееСуда. 21:43, 30 January 2012 (UTC)[reply]

Peloponnese photos[edit]

[1]? Really? Did you think I wouldn't notice? Please don't do that again. Athenean (talk) 20:45, 18 February 2012 (UTC)[reply]

February 2012[edit]

Your recent editing history at Peloponnese shows that you are currently engaged in an edit war. Being involved in an edit war can result in you 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.

To avoid being blocked, instead of reverting please consider using the article's talk page to work toward making a version that represents consensus among editors. You can post a request for help at a relevant noticeboard or seek dispute resolution. In some cases, you may wish to request temporary page protection. Δρ.Κ. ^{λόγοςπράξις} 22:33, 18 February 2012 (UTC)[reply]

You are edit-warring long-term and you were blocked before for adding exactly the same pictures. Obviously you have failed to understand why you were blocked last time. Therefore I will report you at ANI if you continue. Δρ.Κ. ^{λόγοςπράξις} 22:36, 18 February 2012 (UTC)[reply]

Population[edit]

Hi! I see that you are doing some work updating the population of Greece according to the latest census. There is, however, a slight problem: The number you are citing for the total number of inhabitants (9,903,268) is actually not the number we need for the Wiki-article. The table that was presented 31 July gives the de jure population, whatever that means. What we are waiting for is the final numbers of the resident population, that is the number of people actually living in Greece. This table is expected to be presented some time this year, but nothing more precise has been said. The provisional number given so far, is 10,787,690. There are many people looking forward to the final results in order to update Wikipedia! Regards! --79.160.40.10 (talk) 20:47, 14 August 2012 (UTC)[reply]

Canvassing[edit]

This edit is a clear breach of WP:CANVASS. I see that although you've been registered 18 months you've only got a small number of edits so effectively you're a new user. I'll therefore assume you weren't aware of WP:CANVASS. The best thing to do is to revert that post. Also, you've made an assumption about the reason for the edit that you oppose. Be careful with that per WP:NPA. In fact, I happen to know you have got the nationality of the user wrong. DeCausa (talk) 18:31, 9 October 2012 (UTC)[reply]

Greek GDP edit war[edit]

I have notified Avaya1 (talk · contribs) and I would also like ask you to try bringing the issue to a relevant talk page. Avaya1 may have resisted bringing the dispute to a talk page, but that did not stop you from trying.
—Sowlos (talk) 05:03, 28 October 2012 (UTC)[reply]

I really tried, I have said to him at least 2-3 times to take it to the talk page, what else can I do?Nochoje (talk) 10:18, 28 October 2012 (UTC)[reply]

Notice of Edit warring noticeboard discussion[edit]

Hello. This message is being sent to inform you that there is currently a discussion involving you at Wikipedia:Administrators' noticeboard/Edit warring regarding a possible violation of Wikipedia's policy on edit warring. Thank you. Fut.Perf. ☼ 17:58, 28 October 2012 (UTC)[reply]

Hi, would you like to help with H7N9 bird flu?[edit]

Hi,

I'm writing to recent participants on the influenza page. I think it's important to cover H7N9, without making it overblown. Any time you can spare to help with the research and/or the editing will be most appreciated. Thanks. Cool Nerd (talk) 16:13, 19 April 2013 (UTC)[reply]

Notification of automated file description generation[edit]

Your upload of File:Chelmos.JPG or contribution to its description is noted, and thanks (even if belatedly) for your contribution. In order to help make better use of the media, an attempt has been made by an automated process to identify and add certain information to the media's description page.

This notification is placed on your talk page because a bot has identified you either as the uploader of the file, or as a contributor to its metadata. It would be appreciated if you could carefully review the information the bot added. To opt out of these notifications, please follow the instructions here. Thanks!
