Hello Callanecc,
Isn't this user TBAN'd on all things Armenia-related? Jaqeli 22:27, 18 January 2016 (UTC)
- Yes. Callanecc (talk • contribs • logs) 10:41, 19 January 2016 (UTC)
- If so, he violated it, please see this, this and this edits. Jaqeli 13:31, 19 January 2016 (UTC)
- If they weren't more than two weeks old, it'd probably be worth doing something. Callanecc (talk • contribs • logs) 04:37, 20 January 2016 (UTC)
- What does that mean? Isn't that a vio? I've wrote you about the issue first on Jan 5 but no response than. Jaqeli 13:02, 20 January 2016 (UTC)
- Had I seen it on the 5th (I was away/had very limited access for most of January) I would have blocked them. But only knowing about it 2 weeks later makes blocked seem mean and nasty rather than achieving a purpose. In the future, remember you can report TBAN vios to WP:AE, or WP:ANI. Callanecc (talk • contribs • logs) 13:05, 20 January 2016 (UTC)
- You would've been going against your own rules, as you told me in an email The last topic ban included Azerbaijan and ethnic conflicts related to Turkey, this one is prevents you from editing only topics related to Armenia. I haven't gone against this once, please check that then respond to the 2 month old email I sent you. --Steverci (talk) 22:12, 21 January 2016 (UTC)
- I should have said that it only prevents you from editing topics which are related to Armenia the one in the email above wasn't very clear. Could you please send the email again, I can't find it. Callanecc (talk • contribs • logs) 00:23, 22 January 2016 (UTC)

ArbCom Motion
Hi, Callanecc,
Looking at the edit history, it looks like you wrote the motion that is being proposed about Floq. Right now, it looks like it is a decree delivered from on high so even if the motion has the support of the entire arbitration committee could you include a note somewhere about your authorship? It reminds editors that the committee consists of distinct individuals who make different kinds of contributions. Thanks. Liz Read! Talk! 00:27, 23 January 2016 (UTC)
- Good thinking Liz, how's [1]. Callanecc (talk • contribs • logs) 00:59, 23 January 2016 (UTC)
- That does the trick, thank you. Liz Read! Talk! 17:28, 24 January 2016 (UTC)
Acc tool status
What is the status of Acc tool? --Tito Dutta (talk) 13:34, 23 January 2016 (UTC)
- Hi Tito, no idea sorry (other than the internal interface isn't working). Maybe ask on the mailing list. Callanecc (talk • contribs • logs) 00:56, 24 January 2016 (UTC)
User Steverci again
Hi Callanecc, he just violated again his TBAN here. Jaqeli 12:14, 24 January 2016 (UTC)
Last edit was September 2015, but there have been reverts until then. Extend PC? --George Ho (talk) 01:01, 25 January 2016 (UTC)
- Extended to indefinite. Callanecc (talk • contribs • logs) 01:02, 25 January 2016 (UTC)
Consensus
I see you recently protected the Coffee article. We have consensus to have Yemen in the infobox by itself [2]. If its not too much trouble, can you make that edit? Or I can wait a week its fine. Zekenyan (talk) 01:18, 25 January 2016 (UTC)
- Done. Callanecc (talk • contribs • logs) 01:37, 25 January 2016 (UTC)

Western Thought
The page, as it is now, should not exist. There is no such thing as Western Thought. The very term itself suggests incommensurabilites which are purely fictitious.
There is however, the concept being bandied about, and it would be much more interesting to create a page which presents the (political) history of that concept, expecially in the course of the last 70 years.
For far too many topics in the social sciences and the humanities, Wikipedia reflects the myths to which final year highschoolers and first-year undergrads are beholden at a given time (which may be a boon to sociologists). This page is one of the crassest examples of it. My satirical edit was merely trying to highlight this.87.240.197.233 (talk) 01:39, 25 January 2016 (UTC)
- Hi 87.240.197.233, whether certain topics exist is up to the community of editors. I'd suggest that you either propose it for deletion and see if anyone objects or start a discussion about whether it should be deleted, let me know which option (or if neither) you decide to go with and I'll guide you through how to do it.

Any news?
On this Wikipedia talk:Articles for deletion/Involuntary celibacy (4th nomination)? Valoem talk contrib 19:02, 26 January 2016 (UTC)
- Sorry for not getting back to you, thank for the reminder. From what I've read so far, the agreement among the arbitrators was the the matter wasn't an issue the Committee needed to get involved with, and one arb had discussed it with you privately. Callanecc (talk • contribs • logs) 23:29, 26 January 2016 (UTC)
- The only Arb I spoke with is Doug Weller, who did not give any information and said he would be in touch if he need any information. I received no further contact from him. I assume this means I was found not guilty of canvassing, can you please post the outcome or any information regarding this on my talk page? Valoem talk contrib 17:46, 27 January 2016 (UTC)
Questions
Can I edit articles that aren't specifically about Armenia, but have the word Armenia somewhere on them, if I don't touch the part about Armenia? For example I was planning on expanding the Alexander Suvorov article soon, which merely has the mention of a military school in Armenia named after him. If there is no mention of Armenia anywhere, is it automatically safe? --Steverci (talk) 01:03, 27 January 2016 (UTC)
- Hi Steverci, if you have a look at this section and replace things which are related to weather with Armenia, that should be a good starting point for you. Regarding Alexander Suvorov, it also mentions that he may have Armenian heritage and that he had interactions with Armenian migrants in the late 1700s, and that he has a military school named after him. If you avoid anything related to his heritage which may be related to Armenia and any points in his history where he had anything to do with Armenia then you can edit the article. Whether it's safe or not depends on what the article is about (for example, a company that does work in Armenia but doesn't say that anywhere in the article would be covered), what edits you're making and if those edits themselves are related to Armenia, so no, not mentioning Armenia doesn't mean that it's automatically safe to edit.
