Hello, I'm CentralTime301. I wanted to let you know that one or more of your recent contributions to Burnt Church Crisis have been undone because they did not appear constructive. If you would like to experiment, please use the sandbox. If you have any questions, you can ask for assistance at the help desk. Thanks. CentralTime301 (talk, contribs) 14:03, 6 November 2019 (UTC)
- Seriously man. You just literally restored vandalism. And I am sorry too for reverting you accidentally. Anyway I reverted to last clean version. Cheers, Masum Reza📞 14:06, 6 November 2019 (UTC)

Relatinisation of Roumainians
You have deleted my indication with the reason "not constructive":
This article should be deleted. This article has a manifest xenophobic and nationalistic background, because he spreads the xenophobic nationalist policy of the Ceausescu regime. The background can be read in the following link. <https://www.cambridge.org/core/journals/archaeological-dialogues/article/significant-past-and-insignificant-archaeologists-who-informs-the-public-about-their-national-past-the-case -of-romania / 7786EFCCD90209606CE18602A785E71F>
I have provided a link in which my statement is based. In the short amount of time you erased my message, you did not have the time to read the link. So your claim is a lie. The Internet is full of such xenophobic and fascist propaganda, because such pimps as you make yourself a smart-ass.
- If you truly wish that article to be deleted, feel free to nominate it for deletion at WP:AFD. But please, first read WP:Deletion policy and WP:BEFORE. Thanks! Masum Reza📞 13:48, 7 November 2019 (UTC)

Unexplained revert in "Lokma"
Hi, I saw that you just made this revert in the Lokma article: [1], but you didn't give any explanation in the edit summary. The edits you reverted don't seem to be vandalism, and appear to have corrected the Greek and Hebrew translations. I'm going to restore the edits, but please let me know if there's some reason you think that's wrong, thanks. --IamNotU (talk) 14:09, 8 November 2019 (UTC)
- That happened by mistake, I guess. I should have examined it further. "loukoumas" word is Greek but I couldn't seem to check it's meaning using Google translate. Thanks for reverting though. Masum Reza📞 14:21, 8 November 2019 (UTC)
- IamNotU, the edit was not explained either and the words didn't sound English. Why in hell are you blaming amasurezarock?. You should assume good faith.--SharabSalam (talk) 15:38, 8 November 2019 (UTC)
- SharabSalam, I wasn't "blaming" anyone. It seemed like the revert was a mistake, but I wasn't sure and wanted to double-check with Masumrezarock100 in case it was me who was mistaken. Swearing and telling me to assume good faith seems somewhat ironic... --IamNotU (talk) 01:40, 9 November 2019 (UTC)

You removed my post
Dear Masumrezarock100, I have just added an edit to the Parliamentary Office of Science & Technology (POST) page, which I have agreed with POST's Communications Manager. But you have removed it. It did take a while to write it, so I will start again, but please can you advise how I show you it is approved and stop you removing it? Thanks for your help, Hazel — Preceding unsigned comment added by 79.77.0.196 (talk) 10:44, 9 November 2019 (UTC)
- It seems you have a conflict of interest. Editors with COI or paid editors are suggested to propose changes on the talk page. Please read our policies (WP:PAID and WP:COI) first. Also you need to add reliable sources per our verifiability policy, see referencing for beginners to learn how we add citations. Thanks. Masum Reza📞 11:04, 9 November 2019 (UTC)
Dear Masumrezarock100, sorry I don't understand why there might be any conflict of interest. Last week I spoke to the Communications Manager at the Parliamentary Office of Science & Technology (POST) and he agreed I could edit the page with my details, to commemorate into POST's history that I was the first ever employee back in 1988. In my first attempt, I included my LinkedIn profile in order to explain that my name is now Hazel Parrock, whereas in 1988, I was known by my maiden name, Hazel Starmer. After you removed my first edit, I tried again and this time I excluded this reference. All I want to add is the following:
"In 1988, Hazel Starmer was hired as the first Research & Operations Manager to establish the office, set up processes and procedures and demonstrate Proof of Concept for this new ‘intelligence service’. She produced the first briefing papers, including "AIDS is the most important infectious public problem this century", "The Animals (Scientific Procedures) Bill", "The Brain Drain - how seriously should MPs take it?" and "Human Embryological Research in the UK - should it be banned or permitted?"
Please can you explain why this might show any conflict of interest. Thank you for your help, Hazel Hazel Parrock (talk) 23:14, 9 November 2019 (UTC)
- @Hazel Parrock: Your employer/manager should know that Wikipedia is not a social media and no one here owns articles. In other words, we do not care if your manager granted you the permission to edit the article about their organization/company or not. All contents in this encyclopedia must be verifiable and supported by reliable sources. As described in WP:BURDEN, the burden of adding sources relies on the editor who added that unsourced content. If you want to include something to the article, please add a reliable source that supports the content. And about that link to LinkedIn, you should not add links to the main body of an article, per our manual of style and guidelines about external links. In fact, a link to a LinkedIn profile should not be added to the article! Next, if you have an external relationships with the subject, you have an conflict of interest in that topic. You are editing the page about your company or where you work, which mean you have an conflict of interest. Please read WP:COI to learn more about this policy. And now, if you are being compensated for your contributions to Wikipedia your must disclose your employer on your userpage as described in WP:PAID and our terms of use. All of the above rules/guidelines/polices help us to keep this encyclopedia nuetral and verifiable. Continuous violation of our policies may result in a temporary or indefinite block. I hope above sentences make sense. If you are unhappy about this or do not wish to comply with our rules, please find some alternative outlets. Please also read our Welcome page. You'll find more information about Wikipedia there. I have already left a note about this on your talk page, so I would appreciate if read the message. Thanks. Masum Reza📞 08:23, 10 November 2019 (UTC)
Hi Masum Reza, please accept my apologies, I don't know how to find my talk page and I had no intention of causing any problem, I thought I was just doing what I had been asked to do. I am not employed by POST now, so they are not my employer, I do not work there. However, in 1988 I was the first ever employee of POST and I have been invited to update the history record. I am not sure how to do this now, as I don't know how to provide a verifiable source because the people I worked with at that time in the Houses of Parliament (Sir Gerard Vaughan, Sir Trevor Skeet, Sir Ian Lloyd and others) have all passed away, so I am the only reliable source left alive. ....An idea - would the person at POST now responsible for leading the organisation be permitted to update the page? If so, I will leave it with him and not get involved. As I said, please accept my apologies, I had no wish to infringe any guidelines. Many thanks for your help, Hazel 79.77.0.196 (talk) 10:27, 11 November 2019 (UTC)
- No, they should not. They should comply with our COI policy and propose changes on the talk page first. Masum Reza📞 12:16, 12 November 2019 (UTC)

upsetting content
I am not alright this information about me being available in one spot as it is of a personal nature. I was very young and angry and constantly drunk when all this media attention came upon me and I used it to be vengeful and self-pitying. Whenever a future employee or potential love interest looks me up -- they will see this. Whenever I think of it I feel upset with myself and although I have really begun to let that go-- I really do not like so much of the negativity I released into the world to be able to be looked up in one spot.
It was very upsetting to see all this and I would like it gone. I really appreciate you hearing me out and taking out the early life and anything negative about anyone out of this wiki article. It means so much to me. I am trying to create more healing now that I have done enough of my own after letting go of blame and anger. This page is not only an embarrassment to me but also contributes to much of the poison in our society. It is not at all that many would ever look me up or have but I don't want my name so blatantly linked to me. Please just let me take out what is hurtful to me, my family and anyone reading and leave what is positive. And whoever keeps changing it back or changing it to something else (did someone else hop in and edit again or was that my pissed off imagination?)
I apologize if this feels like a personal attack. I am upset so it might but I know it's not your fault. Being real, I am mostly mad at myself for telling my story so publically. There are better ways for this to be done in a way that helps people rather than getting them to focus on anger and who is to blame.
ooohhhhh yeah.... if that was you I contacted on fb... sorry! I didnt realize I could reach you on here. Was not trying to be a creep. — Preceding unsigned comment added by 168.103.158.113 (talk) 07:08, 12 November 2019 (UTC)
- You should not remove content from an article without adequately explaining why even if the article is about yourself. No one here owns articles. You should first discuss it on the talk page with your reason. I have no idea who you contacted on Facebook but that was definitely not me. I had a FB account but never revealed it on Wikipedia. It was possibly another person impersonating me. Masum Reza📞 12:12, 12 November 2019 (UTC)

the edit concern to Assassins Pride
I was talking to the ip about that. And I was going to add something there too. Because Sentai Filmworks did got world wide rights/ license. But not to Asia as they usually do. Tainted-wingsz (talk) 04:44, 14 November 2019 (UTC)
- @Tainted-wingsz: Yeah, it seems so. I self reverted my edits. Cheers, Masum Reza📞 05:05, 14 November 2019 (UTC)
- Ah, o.k. what I was going to add something similar to Why the Hell are You Here, Teacher!?. Where it mentions it in the parentheses. Or use the arrows; <!-- --> and add that short message in. Tainted-wingsz (talk) 05:12, 14 November 2019 (UTC)
Rollback granted
Hi Masumrezarock100. After reviewing your request for "rollbacker", I have enabled rollback on your account. Keep in mind these things when going to use rollback:
- Getting rollback is no more momentous than installing Twinkle.
- Rollback should be used to revert clear cases of vandalism only, and not good faith edits.
- Rollback should never be used to edit war.
- If abused, rollback rights can be revoked.
- Use common sense.
If you no longer want rollback, contact me and I'll remove it. Also, for some more information on how to use rollback, see Wikipedia:Administrators' guide/Rollback (even though you're not an admin). I'm sure you'll do great with rollback, but feel free to leave me a message on my talk page if you run into troubles or have any questions about appropriate/inappropriate use of rollback. Thank you for helping to reduce vandalism. Happy editing! Beeblebrox (talk) 20:51, 14 November 2019 (UTC)

Reverts to "List of Nova episodes"
One of my edits to "List of Nova episodes" was reverted by you, indicating that links to archive.org episodes of a public television science documentary were "inappropriate for an encyclopedia." Please note that there were dozens of these links in place already on that page and I have only been filling in the missing ones as I find them.
Unless I made a link error and did indeed link to something that was not a public television science documentary, I clearly think that this was an erroneous reversion. If you have any specific on the link(s) that were "inappropriate" I would appreciate details of that one or two, as roughly a dozen were removed.
Thank you.
Kevin Dorner (talk) 11:21, 16 November 2019 (UTC)
- @Kevin Dorner: Hi, per our manual of style, external links should not be added to a article's body except when using them as references. Instead group those links together at the bottom of the article under the "External links" section if appropriate. You can add another section named " Further reading". Please read Wikipedia:Manual of Style/Layout#External links. Thanks! Masum Reza📞 11:29, 16 November 2019 (UTC)
Please see the following edit made to add external archive.org links to Nova episodes to that page by the Internet Archive bot: https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Talk:List_of_Nova_episodes#External_links_modified_3
This is exactly what I was doing. Your reversion was an undo of a good faith edit which did not add any supposed violations of style etc. that were not already there. I would like my changes restored please. Kevin Dorner (talk)
- IABot was created to combat WP:LINKROT. If you take a look at IABot's edits, you might understand. It added archive.org links but only to dead references. Those references were dead, in other words the webpages were returning errors or could not be accessed publicly. You on the other hand added extra archive.org external links. There was no need to add those links. I followed WP:BRD procedure and reverted your edits, the next thing you should do is to discuss it on the talk page. Masum Reza📞 12:07, 16 November 2019 (UTC)
Sorry I don't want to waste my time and effort anymore finding these. I just won't make any more contributions. Bye. — Preceding unsigned comment added by Kevin Dorner (talk • contribs)

Google Code-In 2019 is coming - please mentor some documentation tasks!
Hello,
Google Code-In, Google-organized contest in which the Wikimedia Foundation participates, starts in a few weeks. This contest is about taking high school students into the world of opensource. I'm sending you this message because you recently edited a documentation page at the English Wikipedia.
I would like to ask you to take part in Google Code-In as a mentor. That would mean to prepare at least one task (it can be documentation related, or something else - the other categories are Code, Design, Quality Assurance and Outreach) for the participants, and help the student to complete it. Please sign up at the contest page and send us your Google account address to google-code-in-admins@lists.wikimedia.org, so we can invite you in!
From my own experience, Google Code-In can be fun, you can make several new friends, attract new people to your wiki and make them part of your community.
If you have any questions, please let us know at google-code-in-admins@lists.wikimedia.org.
Thank you!
