Copying within Wikipedia requires attribution
[edit] Thank you for your contributions to Wikipedia. It appears that you copied or moved text from East Germany into Flag of East Germany. While you are welcome to re-use Wikipedia's content, here or elsewhere, Wikipedia's licensing does require that you provide attribution to the original contributor(s). When copying within Wikipedia, this is supplied at minimum in an edit summary at the page into which you've copied content, disclosing the copying and linking to the copied page, e.g.,
copied content from [[page name]]; see that page's history for attribution
. It is good practice, especially if copying is extensive, to also place a properly formatted {{copied}} template on the talk pages of the source and destination. Please provide attribution for this duplication if it has not already been supplied by another editor, and if you have copied material between pages before, even if it was a long time ago, you should provide attribution for that also. You can read more about the procedure and the reasons at Wikipedia:Copying within Wikipedia. Thank you. — Diannaa (talk) 13:31, 29 June 2022 (UTC)
Disruptive edits
[edit] Hello. This is a message to let you know that one or more of your recent contributions, such as the edit(s) you made to Emirate of Fujairah, did not appear to be constructive and have been reverted. Please take some time to familiarise yourself with our policies and guidelines. You can find information about these at our welcome page which also provides further information about contributing constructively to this encyclopedia. If you only meant to make test edits, please use your sandbox for that. If you think I made a mistake, or if you have any questions, you may leave a message on my talk page. Thank you.

[edit]When you put "answered=yes" in your talk-page edit, you self-sabotged your own request... AnonMoos (talk) 00:06, 17 August 2022 (UTC)
- I am such an idiot for doing that😂 Kxeon (talk) 00:15, 17 August 2022 (UTC)
Your use of "Pridnestrovie"
[edit]Hello. That Transnistria should not be referred to as Pridnestrovie is something that has been discussed to death. Please refrain from continuing doing so. I am eager to opening a report about this. Your contributions are otherwise helpful, so that's the only problem. Super Ψ Dro 10:10, 22 August 2022 (UTC)
- Actually, I see most of your additions are unsourced. That only makes unnecessary work for me and other editors to remove them. Super Ψ Dro 10:20, 22 August 2022 (UTC)
Some resources
[edit]Hi Kxeon. At start I might have been a bit aggressive with my reverts on you, and I apologize for that, but after looking into your contributions these past days, I think you can be a valuable contribution to Wikipedia. I see you have enthusiasm and you have already corrected some beginner mistakes such as editing without backing from sources. I can tell you that this is rare among new users. So I would like to help you a bit.
You say in your userpage that you usually just translate articles. But you don't need to limit yourself to translating what others have written. You can search for sources yourself and write your own content. Maybe this was being a problem for you, as it was for me when I first started. So I would like to give you some tips for finding sources.
- Use Google Scholar. You can find academic sources here about complex scholarly subjects.
- Use Google Books. Here are the most niche things in my opinion. If a book doesn't talk about it, then the subject you're looking for probably isn't relevant enough for Wikipedia.
- Make regular Google searches and click on the news section. Here are more simple, every-day topics. You will probably find what you need here in most cases.
- Make searches in other languages. This helps you find more sources. Maybe most of them are in a different language other than English.
Your last created pages were the flag, coat of arms and anthem of Tiraspol. I think that if you had wanted to make those pages longer or create similar articles in the future, using Google News and searching in languages like Russian would have helped you. Keep in mind that depending on what you're creating, you will need a type of sources or another. I hope this can help you and sorry if it may appear as coming out of nowhere. Have a good editing here. Super Ψ Dro 23:32, 29 August 2022 (UTC)
- Thanks for the help! I honestly didn't know what else to do other than translating articles and, if it's perfectly fine as is, put on some extra touches until you actually told me just now. Thank you for that! :) Kxeon (talk) 14:01, 30 August 2022 (UTC)
Disambiguation link notifications
[edit]September 13, 2022
[edit]Hi. Thank you for your recent edits. An automated process has detected that when you recently edited Coat of arms of Australia, you added a link pointing to the disambiguation page Coat of arms of Victoria. 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.)
It's OK to remove this message. Also, to stop receiving these messages, follow these opt-out instructions. Thanks, DPL bot (talk) 09:03, 13 September 2022 (UTC)

Edit summary
[edit]Hi. I saw your edit summary "do NOT revert without a valid reason".[1] Generally speaking, we don't use edit summaries to give orders; they should helpfully describe what you've done and maybe explain it.
It might also be worth remembering that we assume editors have a valid reason for everything they do - see WP:AGF. Besides, reverting is merely the essential counterpart to changing an article and is a normal part of improving articles. The essay Wikipedia:BOLD, revert, discuss cycle describes this so well that editors often recommend or even insist on following that process, referring to it simply as WP:BRD. Hope this helps. NebY (talk) 14:53, 15 September 2022 (UTC)
- Ok, got it. Honestly, that was a mistake on doing that. I just wanted to see the reason WHY they reverted my image changes. Are country article formats different between languages? Kxeon (talk) 16:50, 15 September 2022 (UTC)
- Yes, the various Wikipedias in different languages each have their own communities which, though to some extent they learn and borrow from each other, have often established different policies, conventions, formats and more. NebY (talk) 17:16, 15 September 2022 (UTC)
- So like... the Polish wikipedia can use the normative version of their flag, but not the English one? Can that situation happen as well? Kxeon (talk) 17:20, 15 September 2022 (UTC)
- I don't know the Polish Wikipedia's policies at all, but that could indeed be the situation. NebY (talk) 18:24, 15 September 2022 (UTC)

[edit]The Republic of Artsakh was formally dissolved on 1st Jan 2024. 86.31.178.164 (talk) 02:26, 7 December 2024 (UTC)
- The dissolution was definitely cancelled, with Artsakh being a GiE.
- Facebook Page of the Parliament of Artsakh (still running, implying Artsakh has not yet dissolved)
- Karabakh Figures Reject Pashinian’s Threats - Radio Free Europe: "In an interview with France’s Le Figaro daily published on Wednesday, Shahramanian said that the self-proclaimed Nagorno-Karabakh Republic (NKR) continues to exist despite Karabakh’s recapture by Baku. He has not yet reacted to Pashinian’s threats."
- Karabakh Leaders Hit Back At Yerevan: "In a statement issued later on Monday, Gagik Baghunts, the acting speaker of the Karabakh parliament, insisted that it continues to function in exile one year after the “ethnic cleansing.” Its members “continue to bear responsibility for the fate of Artsakh Armenians in the current situation and make all possible efforts to ensure their collective return to the homeland under security guarantees,” said Baghunts."
- Samvel Chakhramanian : «Je demande à la France de faire pression sur l'Azerbaïdjan pour libérer les prisonniers politiques arméniens» - Le Figaro: "Artsakh no longer has a territory, but so there still formally exists a government-in-exile?
- Samvel Shahramanian: Yes, the building where I am receiving you in Yerevan houses the presidential office and offices for the judicial and legislative structures of Artsakh. Parliamentarians can meet here to vote. I signed a decree in October establishing that all government ministers are kept in their positions, on a voluntary basis."
- and also, with a bunch of references to the government-in-exile: [1]
- It really doesn't seem like it dissolved. Kxeon (talk) 18:46, 9 December 2024 (UTC)

Moldovan-language templates
[edit]Hello Kxeon, thank you for your interest in Transnistrian topics. I wanted to ask you to please avoid using templates in the supposed Moldovan language. Such a language does not exist and is a political fabrication. This is the consensus both in academia and in Wikipedia. Any text in Moldovan Cyrillic is text in the Romanian language and using the parameter "ro" in templates is thus appropriate. If it is necessary to explicitly stress the alphabet, Template:Moldovan Cyrillic can be used.
Using "mo" in templates includes the articles they're being used within at categories like Category:Articles containing Moldovan-language text, which is misleading as no text in such a language is displayed in those articles. I will request the supression of "Moldovan" from Wikipedia templates one day once the geopolitical situation allows it. Meanwhile, we should be careful with giving a fringe theory the same weight and treatment as uncontroversial linguistic facts in this website. Just to note, I do find you looking up the Moldovan Cyrillic version of places and entities helpful. Thanks, Super Ψ Dro 19:06, 11 December 2024 (UTC)
- Alrighty then. Thanks for telling me that I am really not supposed to do that. No more of that I guess. Kxeon (talk) 20:56, 11 December 2024 (UTC)
- P.S.
- man it would make a bunch more sense if mo-Cyrl was allowed to be an actual possible value. then we wouldn't need Template:Moldovan Cyrillic at all Kxeon (talk) 21:03, 11 December 2024 (UTC)
- Thanks for being understanding. Yeah, I also thought before it'd be great to have that as a possible parameter. I don't really know how could it be done, specially after the merge of individual templates for each language. I might ask for it one day too, maybe. Have a good day.

Variations of English
[edit]Thanks for your edits! I noticed that you recently moved Romanisation of Maldivian to Romanization of Maldivian.

Prussia
[edit]Hi Kxeon, most of these pages are caused by the merging of the Prussia project into Germany. Would you be able to take care of these by combining the banners (example)? If there are too many, you might need to ask for bot assistance. Thanks! — Martin (MSGJ · talk) 08:12, 16 July 2025 (UTC)
- So if I'm understanding you correctly, you want to merge the two templates entirely? Or just combine the templates in the pages where they are used at the same time, as seen in your example? kxeon talk 15:12, 16 July 2025 (UTC)
- Well yes, the task force template can be merged completely. There are only 112 transclusions left so not a huge job. Looks like someone has been busy and cleaned out that category already — Martin (MSGJ · talk) 21:52, 16 July 2025 (UTC)
- Ah yes. Fair enough. It did say to only substitute the template after all. The template itself saying to only substitute the template, has
{{{auto}}}
set toyes
. But I'm pretty sure we don't have such a bot yet for the Prussia task force, although it would be useful here. So I removed that parameter for now. kxeon talk 23:37, 16 July 2025 (UTC)- Well
|auto=yes
will work on any template (see Category:Wikipedia templates to be automatically substituted), but in the case that there is already a {{WikiProject Germany}} on the page, that would cause a duplicate banner, which would appear in the tracking category that I first linked — Martin (MSGJ · talk) 07:59, 17 July 2025 (UTC)
- Well
- Ah yes. Fair enough. It did say to only substitute the template after all. The template itself saying to only substitute the template, has
- Well yes, the task force template can be merged completely. There are only 112 transclusions left so not a huge job. Looks like someone has been busy and cleaned out that category already — Martin (MSGJ · talk) 21:52, 16 July 2025 (UTC)
N.F.
[edit] Hello. I wanted to let you know that in your recent contributions, you seemed to act as if you were the owner of a page. Everyone is welcome to contribute constructively to Wikipedia. This means that editors do not own articles, including ones they create, and should respect the work of their fellow contributors. If you create or edit an article, remember that others are free to change its content. Take a look at the welcome page to learn more about contributing to this encyclopedia. Thank you. Augmented Seventh🎱 17:48, 19 August 2025 (UTC)

NF-Board
[edit]- You should base it on this: In May 2017, the NF-Board announced its return, "The NF-Board has not affiliated any federations since 2017 (officially from 2017 to 2025: 0 members)". The NF-Board should write an article stating that in 2025, example: 5 members on the NF-board or none. This would finally clarify things about the current situation of the NF-Board.
- Remember, you are not alone on this article, you must accept that others modify the article, avoid deleting the contribution of other contributors because it does not go in your direction, it is important to respect the work.
2A01:E0A:1D9:1B70:FCFF:C7C2:28FE:6B38 (talk) 16:00, 20 August 2025 (UTC)
- "The NF-Board has not affiliated any federations since 2017 (officially from 2017 to 2025: 0 members)" Source, please?
- Also, I'm not trying to "disrespect the work", quite the opposite. I've stopped reverting the edits already. The removal of most, or every, member of the N.F.-Board from the count seems like a big change, no? One that needs to be well-thought out. kxeon talk 16:10, 20 August 2025 (UTC)
- _For the moment, we feel more like someone is hijacking an article and trying to make it work for them.
- _We don't want a pseudo-historical list, but the current list in 2025. Who's on this list in 2025?
- _I can see that this is a problem for you; I'm touching on a sensitive point.
- _Kxeon, it's up to you to provide sources showing that they had members in 2017 and 2025. Today, there's nothing to prove it; there are currently 0 members. We don't want a Facebook page, Twitter, Instagram, blogs, or :a false list. — Preceding unsigned comment added by 2A01:E0A:1D9:1B70:FCFF:C7C2:28FE:6B38 (talk) 16:40, 20 August 2025 (UTC)
- You didn't answer my question. The list isn't "pseudo-historical", it's literally the official list of the N.F.-Board. However, the N.F.-Board hasn't updated their members list since 2017. So they either have members according to the N.F.-Board's website, or they do not according to Jean-Luc Kit's edit to frwiki's NF-Board article and a post saying they stopped affiliating FAs since 2017.
- Now then, before finding the frwiki contribution by JLK, I thought that all the members were just grandfathered in. Evidently though, that assumption seems to have been dead wrong. So the membership status has been abolished, but they still had members before this point. All it took was just one revision on an entirely different language's Wikipedia, for me to finally realise that they actually don't affiliate members as they did before, and might actually also have 0 members if the two sources, together, are interpreted differently. One mystery solved, one more to go. --Thanks, kxeon talk 16:57, 20 August 2025 (UTC)
- If this is a pseudo-historical list, it's clearly misleading.
- It can't be official. There are 15 associations that are members of ConIFA and are not part of the NF-Board. Twelve are members of other organizations, and others are not part of any organization. And among the other 26, some, like La Provence, have stopped membership since 2013 and others not all. There is no proof of their existence or any connection with the NF-Board. How come Yap and Pohnpei are on this list? When they've never had any contact with the NF-Board. Perhaps it's time for the NF-Board to update it.
- I'm telling you, there are no members on the NF-Board.
- The French version is not the English version.
- And the last mystery? — Preceding unsigned comment added by 2A01:E0A:1D9:1B70:FCFF:C7C2:28FE:6B38 (talk) 18:11, 20 August 2025 (UTC)
- Yes, it is official, and no, it's still not pseudo-historical. It may seem like it's misleading, but the ones that were parts of CONIFA 2017, according to the N.F.-Board from 2017, were suspended. The ones that decided to stop membership too.
- Also, where is the source, that you can use here to say that Provence stopped affiliation in 2013? What about "the other 26"? 15+26=41, but there are 53 members on that page? 53-41=12, so which 12 members had not stopped right then and there?
- On the list, 27 are Associates, and 20 are "Suspended" (or withdrawn). So you probably mean the associates when you talk about "the other 26", right? Please, tell me where you got that information. — Also, they've abandoned that site and have stated recently that they're making a new one.[1]
- Also also, they really have all been former members ever since 2017. Now that is known by me and I finally accepted it with that one missing puzzle piece.
- The French Wikipedia is not the English one, yes, but different-language Wikipedias can provide information that others do not. Like that FrWiki revision? EnWiki ≠ FrWiki, and so one can have more details than another and vice versa.
- And the last mystery? The members. It seems pretty clear they all exist (except for Southern Lower Saxony?) but evidently newspapers are said by an IP user (possibly you? or are you someone else...) to be basically the best source you can use, and may not accept much else deviating from that. But some of these have been barely documented apart from company registrations, or their official site, or some other thing that could be said to be "unreliable" by you or someone else with a extremely strict sense of reliability. So the last mystery: should a large chunk the more obscure members be deleted from the page, because sources that seem to be reliable, are considered to not be reliable due to a strict sense of reliabilities of sources? kxeon talk 20:37, 20 August 2025 (UTC)
- They didn't wait to be suspended in 2017, starting in 2013, they left to join CONIFA in 2014.
- You don't know your stuff. Provence stopped everything in 2013 after the International Tournament of Peoples, Cultures, and Tribes held in Marseille.
- If you look at the numbers I posted, there's the 15th, the 12th, and the 26th, that makes 53. The famous 53 members of the NF-Board website map.
- My little Kxeon, you don't know your stuff. They're going to create a new one, a Facebook page that's 1 year and 6 months old...
- Kxeon, you're light years behind, I've been following the NON-FIFA for years.
- Do you have all the documents? But you don't even know about Provence...
- The French Wikipedia on the subject of non-FIFA football didn't need other wikis, whether in English or others; we've always done our research.
- Ouch, ouch, it's not just South Lower Saxony, there's also the Himalayas, the Golden Isles, NFB-Europe and Africa, the Maasai, Fulani, Stateless People, Casamance...(I won't repeat myself, I already said it).
- It's a bit of a strange question, but it involves many people, many discussions, many votes, as well as compliance with Wikipedia rules. Why newspapers? It's simply a question of international visibility; if the subject is shared around the world, it must be known and recognized.
- Why aren't some acceptable? Because Wikipedia's rules say so.
- If you look closely, the NF-Board sources in 2017 are acceptable, but not exceptional. *The "unreliable": These are mainly social media (Facebook, Twitter, YouTube, Instagram, blogs, etc.), which is also covered by Wikipedia rules. You also need to be wary of fake newspapers and certain websites.
- Yes, it is official, and no, it's still not pseudo-historical. It may seem like it's misleading, but the ones that were parts of CONIFA 2017, according to the N.F.-Board from 2017, were suspended. The ones that decided to stop membership too.
- The most obscure members, what do you mean?
- First off, I know they didn't wait for 2017. The N.F.-Board suspended them as an effect, not a cause of the N.F.-Board.
- Second off, here I actually didn't know of the FA Provence's dissolution. At first I thought I couldn't find it either, but then I found the Facebook page of the FPF, which then lead to the official website of the FPF which had already been usurped to lead to redirect to [2]. I went to the archive on 26 September 2013. I advance one snapshot later from September to 27 October, and it's gone. Going to 15 September 2017, suspended. 5 August 2020, usurped for gambling ads. The Facebook page also says "The adventure ended in 2013 in Marseille in the final of the Tournament against Kurdistan. And if our Provençal warriors did it again, would you be there? Here on our page and near the players on the sidelines, click "like" and share our page with your friends", which may imply they may be coming back at some point. Although it is from 2016 and it's 2025 right now.[2]
- Also, 15 and 26 were in number form, but 12 was in word form (twelve). Maybe that's why I missed that?
- "They're going to create a new one, a Facebook page that's 1 year and 6 months old..."
- Still though, they're probably going to; assuming that Phases 1 & 2 are not specific to if the MVWC took place. If not, then it could be that, it might just take longer for whatever reason to make the website. Maybe they have new priorities, or, for whatever reason, multiple technical errors?
- "It's not just South Lower Saxony, there's also the Himalayas, the Golden Isles, NFB-Europe and Africa, the Maasai, Fulani, Stateless People, Casamance...(I won't repeat myself, I already said it)."
- I'm currently working on my reply!
- "If you look closely, the NF-Board sources in 2017 are acceptable, but not exceptional." I guess you're referencing WP:EXCEPTIONAL, and furthermore referencing this part: "Any exceptional claim requires multiple high-quality sources. Warnings (red flags) that should prompt extra caution include: Surprising or apparently important claims not covered by multiple mainstream sources; [...]", and you consider some of the things here, exceptional, and that the N.F.-Board sources are not high-quality enough to be counted, I guess. Other than the N.F.-Board#2014 VIVA World Cup and/or the 2013 Women's VIVA World Cup, joke members, and non-members listed as members which you could count as exceptional, what else fits the bill? Surely not the members, right? They don't count, do they?
- "The 'unreliable': These are mainly social media (Facebook, Twitter, YouTube, Instagram, blogs, etc.), which is also covered by Wikipedia rules."
- What about WP:FACEBOOK/WP:INSTAGRAM (those two go to the same place), or WP:TWITTER-EL, or WP:YOUTUBE-EL? What about their RSP counterparts? (WP:RSPFACEBOOK, WP:RSPTWITTER, WP:RSPYT, WP:RSPINSTAGRAM) Do those count here?
- And, also, what counts as a blog? And which citations that I cite, or that are in the N.F.-Board page are there (Apart from the official blog of the Two Sicilies, which could either fall under WP:NEWSBLOG or WP:ABOUTSELF, and I myself did not cite, and Idrottsforum which is for verifying the name "Non-FIFA Board" was common too)?
- "You also need to be wary of fake newspapers and certain websites."
- Also, you tell me to be weary of "fake newspapers and certain websites", and yes I definitely know that I do have to be cautious to not fall into traps such as those. But I don't know exactly which sources you're referring to, unless you're referring to the sources in WP:RSP? Did I miss something and cite one of those "fake newspapers" or "certain websites"? Or is it something else? Am I... missing something here?
- And finally, you asked "The most obscure members, what do you mean?". By "the more obscure members", I meant members such as Himalaya, Peule, Maasai, Îles d'Or, FA Apatrids, Cossack, Casamance, Chechnya, Rijeka, NFB-EUROPE and NFB-AFRICA.

- It's quite strange, you're always looking for excuses for the NF-Board.
- That's why I told you: "Before embarking on a Wikipedia project, and specifically the NON-FIFA project, you absolutely must know everything. You're coming years late, without knowing the subject." The NON-FIFA section on the French Wikipedia has been up to date for a long time.
- You need to be much more careful.
- Creating a site isn't difficult. The reason is simple. I'll give an example of why they can't hold a competition, simply because they have 0 members.
- There is no answer to give regarding South Lower Saxony and the others. There is no proof of existence, nor any source, nothing to prove that there was any contact.
- "The 'unreliable': These are mainly social media (Facebook, Twitter, YouTube, Instagram, blogs, etc.), which is also covered by Wikipedia rules." : I've already explained this to you many times.
- As for the obscure members, it's quite simple. They never existed, there's nothing to prove it, nor any source. Why I'm so sure of myself is because we checked all the sources from the time; it was a long-term job.
- On the other hand, Chechnya played their first matches against Occitania (0-14), they participated in two matches during the UNPO Cup. Two more friendlies against Monaco (1-13) and Abkhazia (0-1), they lost 80% of their matches and 20% drew. Chechnya was a member of the UNPO at the time, there is no source related to the NF-Board. It seems he was never part of the NF-Board. — Preceding unsigned comment added by 2A01:E0A:1D9:1B70:5D3F:AAB6:D0D9:CB28 (talk) 08:57, 21 August 2025 (UTC)
- Still working on the reply. Shouldn't use too much time to respond to your comments here. That time could be used to find citations and make the reply to comment. And if I did reply with an actual response right now, then it might end up taking even more time. I need time. I'll be back soon. kxeon talk 15:37, 21 August 2025 (UTC)
- For the English version of the NF-Board, we need to streamline, make it simple and less the article. We also need to remove unnecessary things. An overly busy article doesn't appeal to people and doesn't make them want to be seen.
Example format:
- History
- Foundation
- Early controversies
- Attempted revival
- Members (If there are any, this is not the case at the moment)
- List of competitions organized by NF-Board or Tournaments
- Men's Competitions
- Women's Competitions
- Titleholders
- Important Personalities
- Presidents of NF-Board
- Vice-Presidents of NF-Board
- General Secretaries
- Identity
- Flag — Preceding unsigned comment added by 2A01:E0A:1D9:1B70:5D3F:AAB6:D0D9:CB28 (talk) 16:19, 21 August 2025 (UTC)

Accidental spam link?
[edit]I'm not sure what happened but your edit here seems to redirect to a gambling site? I have to assume this is an accident but I'm really confused how that could happen by accident. Perryprog (talk) 01:39, 21 August 2025 (UTC)
- Thanks for reminding me I forgot to put "usurped" as the link status. (The archived link does not do this.) kxeon talk 01:56, 21 August 2025 (UTC)

Shughni language convertor
[edit]Dear Mr Kxeon,
Could you kindly help look into this request?
The conversion tool for this language between latin ⇔ cyrillic in my honest opinion is quite straightforward with no capitalisation issues. --DaveZ123 (talk) 08:55, 2 October 2025 (UTC)
- I have also created a tool here to make your testing work easier. --DaveZ123 (talk) 09:01, 2 October 2025 (UTC)
- Thank you so much for your help! As gratitude, I have now created almost all of the fifty US states here (I am assuming that you are American). I have also created the Canadian Provinces in shughni just in case you are from Canada. --DaveZ123 (talk) 08:08, 3 October 2025 (UTC)
