I see you blanked the page, that's a bad sign usually. If you are still here and willing, please look at Gamal Khashaba, Mohamed Saad el Din Sherif, Aly Aly El-Moursy, Hussein Sabry Gad El Mula and add the Arabic. I don't understand the language, and you do, so if you need to change the article name, spelling, capitals, hyphens, please feel free, and thanks again!--Kintetsubuffalo (talk) 05:25, 10 November 2016 (UTC)Reply

I'm still around for now. I'll put it on my to-do list and get on it as soon as I can. :) Turnopoems (talk) 17:00, 10 November 2016 (UTC)Reply
@Kintetsubuffalo: Done! Looks like you got most of them right (I assume you're the one who added the hidden text). Thanks for the articles. :) Turnopoems (talk) 16:13, 12 November 2016 (UTC)Reply
I am, I asked a nice fellow on ar:wiki. But please correct them where you see them (you said "most of them"), and again if you need to change the article name, spelling, capitals, hyphens, please feel free!--Kintetsubuffalo (talk) 16:16, 12 November 2016 (UTC)Reply
I did, just a minor correction. Arabic doesn't have the letter "G", but in Egyptian Arabic it replaces "J" (which in turn is informally replaced with an additional letter that doesn't exist in standard Arabic "چ"), hence Jamal becomes Gamal. The other editor spelled it with a "ک/گ" (like in Persian/Urdu/Kurdish), which I changed to the correct "ج" (jeem - i.e. geem in Egypt). Turnopoems (talk) 16:24, 12 November 2016 (UTC)Reply
I did about 10 others from Morocco to Bahrain, if you want to take a look. ;) --Kintetsubuffalo (talk) 16:40, 12 November 2016 (UTC)Reply
Sure thing, just send the links my way. My knowledge in local dialects is limited to Egypt though, so in that case standard Arabic will be my frame of reference. Turnopoems (talk) 16:44, 12 November 2016 (UTC)Reply

Gebel el-Silsila

edit

I have reverted your unexplained edits. The English works use "Gebel el-Silsila" in the professional literature. "Gabal" is a variant version used in Arabic Anglicization, which was already noted in the original article. Constructive edits are desired. Your move was not helpful in this case. This is the English Wikipedia. If certain redirect pages are needed to get to the proper English version this might be helpful. Thor Dockweiler (talk) 12:02, 13 November 2016 (UTC)Reply

Mervat Amin

edit

Hello, Turnopoems – I was just looking at the latest edits to Mervat Amin, and while there made a few copy-edits (which is what I mainly do on Wikipedia). I noticed that the titles in the section Mervat Amin#Partial filmography look a little odd, containing a lot of numbers in place of letters. I wonder if you would mind looking at them and see what needs to be done. Best regards,  – Corinne (talk) 15:43, 19 August 2017 (UTC)Reply

September 2023: Edit warring

edit
 

Your recent editing history shows that you are currently engaged in an edit war; that means that you are repeatedly changing content back to how you think it should be, when you have seen that other editors disagree. To resolve the content dispute, please do not revert or change the edits of others when you are reverted. Instead of reverting, please use the talk page to work toward making a version that represents consensus among editors. The best practice at this stage is to discuss, not edit-war; read about how this is done. If discussions reach an impasse, you can then post a request for help at a relevant noticeboard or seek dispute resolution. In some cases, you may wish to request temporary page protection.

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 do not violate the three-revert rule—should your behavior indicate that you intend to continue reverting repeatedly. Skitash (talk) 16:11, 28 September 2023 (UTC)Reply

Your version doesn't seem to be supported by anyone other than you; you'll need to present evidence in the talk page otherwise before reverting again. OhNoitsJamie Talk 12:13, 30 September 2023 (UTC)Reply
The two editors you're referring to are the ones that reversed the long-standing version, which has been in place since at least 2019 ([1]), as far back as I can go in history, and are now engaging in an edit war to force through their desired edit. Their edit was contested and instead of going to the talk page and building consensus they engaged in edit warring, I tried to pursue middle ground edits but they reversed these, going back to their desired version, and then I started the discussion on the talk page to end the constant reversals. Turnopoems (talk) 12:21, 30 September 2023 (UTC)Reply
Do you have a diff that can show your version is the "long-standing" one? OhNoitsJamie Talk 12:29, 30 September 2023 (UTC)Reply
The link I provided shows you the 2019 version and is the earliest one I can retrieve, here is the diff between that version and the current version (their desired version). This is the original edit which changed the long-standing version, an edit that was contested by me here. This resulted in the ensuing edit war by the two editors in question. At no point did they attempt to build consensus for their change but rather insisted that I pursue consensus to contest their edit in favor of the long-standing version, which already had implicit consensus by virtue of being there for at least half a decade. Turnopoems (talk) 13:14, 30 September 2023 (UTC)Reply
I don't see how that diff supports your version. If you're making a change, the onus is on you to build a consensus for that change, not them.OhNoitsJamie Talk 14:29, 30 September 2023 (UTC)Reply
Perhaps I misunderstood you. You did ask me to show you that my version is the long-standing one, right? The link I provided shows that the version I'm arguing for goes back to at least 2019, which they changed now in September and I contested the change, which led to them continously reverting back to their desired change. Hence I'm not the one making a change, I'm reverting to the old, long-standing version which has had implicit consensus for years. Since their change was contested, it does not have consensus per WP:CON. Instead of seeking consensus, they simply continue to revert back to their version, regardless of any efforts I've made to reach common ground. Their constant reverting led me to start a discussion on the talk-page, to end their edit warring. Even then they continued to revert, instead of engaging properly in the discussion on the talk page. Besides reverting, all they're doing is levying allegations towards me, which leads me to believe that have no interest in actually finding a constructive outcome.

Ezbet El Haggana move

edit

Hi, I saw that you created a redirect page Ezbet El Haggana to go to Madinet al-Amal. Since Haggana is the original name of the area, and more widely used, I would like your help to switch: Ezbet El Haggana becomes the main page name, and Amal is the redirect. Thanks.

Hi. Thank you for your recent edits. An automated process has detected that when you recently edited Obour (city), you added a link pointing to the disambiguation page Operation Badr. Such links are usually incorrect, since a disambiguation page is merely a list of unrelated topics with similar titles. (Read the FAQ • Join us at the DPL WikiProject.)
