terrorism definition

[edit]

I reverted your changes to the terrorism article, I don't think words like "for example" should be used at the top of the section that is trying to succinctly define a word, especially considering the word has multiple definitions and it seemed too verbose. Though, after reading your changes again I kind of see what you are trying to getting at, perhaps that info should be included further down in the article? Let's discuss on that article's talk page. zen master T 08:46, 24 Mar 2005 (UTC)

Avrohom Shmulevitz

[edit]

Professor, I am proposing the deletion of your article on Avrohom Shmuevitz. I looked though his website and his livejournal (I am a Russian-speaking Orthodox Jew) and I came to the conclusion that this "rabbi" of unknown religious provenance is the leader of a non-notable gang of "hyperzionist" hoodlums. I am not sure what leads you to believe that he is notable, but please feel free to write to me on my talk page if you object to his deletion. Crzrussian 20:39, 6 March 2006 (UTC)[reply]

Thanks for contributing to the Evola article. It's nice to have the assistance of an expert. —Morning star 17:14, 30 May 2006 (UTC)[reply]

Thank You

[edit]

Thank you for adding to Sufi studies. Looking forward to further contributions. Take care. (Lunarian)

Enticement ?

[edit]

Professor, I made some additions to Sufi studies that you may want to look at. They are also meant to entice you to further contribute to the article. Thanks for your benevolent attention. (Lunarian)

Thank you very much. I had not meant to put you to so much trouble. The edit is all the better for it. The Ahmad al-Alawi link was equally valuable... We are bound to meet again. It's a privilege.

P.S Are you working on a Jossot wiki? If not it would be no trouble for me to look him up in a painter's index...
P.P.S I linked Gotthold Ephraim Lessing to Johann Jacob Reiske (I noted perhaps)...

I had a go at Jossot and I also put a remark on Talk:Rudolf von Sebottendorf. Maybe you would like to comment too.

A Million

[edit]

Thanks a million. Great progress on some real study. Dinet's next but I'm not going to disturb you. Entirely in debt to you for gratitude. (Lunarian 11:04, 7 June 2006 (UTC))[reply]

Glad to see you're still around!

How's everything? How's that book of uber-nationalism coming along? See ya. - CrazyRussian talk/email 22:30, 20 June 2006 (UTC)[reply]

Howdy, I noticed that you and I seem to post in one or two articles dealing with progressive issues in political science/sociology. There's currently a debate beginning in Boston Tea Party as to whether the article should include the category [1]. It meets definitions set in the articles Terrorism and Definition of terrorism, however, there are several self-proclaimed patriots who watch BTP who refuse to recognise the fact. The simple criteria for terrorism generally seem to be intimidation or destruction of property in order to change public policy or public opinion while a state of war has not yet been declared. Some users would rather use recent acts of terrorism as a yardstick, rather than using a firm definition, and hence lose their ability to discuss matters calmly. Would you be able to pop in to the Talk page and join in the discussion? Thanks much, samwaltz 05:16, 22 August 2006 (UTC)[reply]

The article Idrisis of Asir has been proposed for deletion because of the following concern:

No useful purpose, unreferenced single sentence article, no context, could possibly be redirected to Emirate of Asir.

While all contributions to Wikipedia are appreciated, content or articles may be deleted for any of several reasons.

You may prevent the proposed deletion by removing the {{dated prod}} notice, but please explain why in your edit summary or on the article's talk page.

Please consider improving the article to address the issues raised. Removing {{dated prod}} will stop the proposed deletion process, but other deletion processes exist. The speedy deletion process can result in deletion without discussion, and articles for deletion allows discussion to reach consensus for deletion. –– Jezhotwells (talk) 00:26, 23 March 2010 (UTC)[reply]

Hi. Thank you for your recent edits. Wikipedia appreciates your help. We noticed though that when you edited Alois Kalvoda, you added links pointing to the disambiguation pages Saint Louis and Naturalism (check to confirm | fix with Dab solver). Such links are almost always unintended, since a disambiguation page is merely a list of "Did you mean..." article titles. Read the FAQ • Join us at the DPL WikiProject.
