Postage stamps of Italian Libya

This is an automated message from CorenSearchBot. I have performed a web search with the contents of Postage stamps of Italian Libya, and it appears to include material copied directly from http://www.worldstampnews.com/2011/11/stamps-of-libya/.

It is possible that the bot is confused and found similarity where none actually exists. If that is the case, you can remove the tag from the article. The article will be reviewed to determine if there are any copyright issues.

I have taken the above material directly from the page "Postage stamps of Libya" (section Italian colony) of English Wikipedia. So, I don't understand what is the problem.--Oldsettler (talk) 20:44, 10 October 2014 (UTC)

Former user R-41, letter of apology to you

Hello, I am the former user R-41, and I am leaving this message here to apologize to you, John T., whom I will now refer to under the user account you have opened named OldSettler. I apologize to you OldSettler for my previous pigheaded behaviour on the article Pacification of Libya, I have been seeking a WP:FRESHSTART after I requested a self-ban from an administrator because my behaviour was unhealthy to myself and others. I have medical conditions that from time to time can affect my cognition and make me aggressive and stubborn. I apologize for that behaviour. I am not going to do any editing until I start a new account, which I am going to request to be under probation by an administrator. I will take breaks whenever I feel in frustrated shape, and please tell me if you see me becoming frustrated, I will have a break. If I fail to engage in healthy dialogue and return to previous inappropriate behaviour, I will support you or anyone reporting this to an administrator and mentioning that I myself recognize that I at times can succumb to frustration and become combative. When this is done, I'd like to attempt to start afresh with a more co-operative approach with you focused on seeking out reliable sources to review and record all claims made by Italian and Senussi forces. You have made valuable contributions including adding information. It is very important to include material on claims of war crimes by both Italian and Senussi forces that you have added. Another valuable contribution you have made is the describing the role of indigenous colonial forces serving in the Italian military in fighting against the Senussi rebels during the conflict, including the Libyan indigenous colonial soldier who captured Omar Muhktar. I still have some disagreements about some of the wording and would like to see some more sources though for some sentences you have added. Again, I sincerely apologize for my previous conduct.--70.53.113.91 (talk) 12:24, 14 December 2014 (UTC)

Thank you very much for accepting my apology given my behaviour in the past. Should I be able to return to do editing, we may still have disagreements, however I will do my utmost to insure that all major perspectives on the Pacification of Libya are shown. In that case, I hope we can both agree to seek to present both the perspectives of the Italian forces and the Senussi forces and what their motivations were to have a neutral account that gives the most accurate and realistic depiction of the perspectives of the two sides. Until the process that I have begun to request a review to return to Wikipedia is done, I will not edit any articles, and no further conversation will continue here. I have sent these messages to inform you about what is being done, so that you will understand should an administrator believe that I am able to return to edit here on Wikipedia.--70.53.113.91 (talk) 15:10, 14 December 2014 (UTC)

The user name R-41 has an origin that is humourous in the context that others on Wikipedia, when they ask, always seem to think it has some connection to a code or military plan. No, before I started on Wikipedia I edited on the Star Wars encyclopedia Wookiepedia where I used the name R-41 to refer to a fighter spacecraft from the Star Wars expanded universe called the R-41 Starchaser, that is in the Lucasarts games TIE Fighter, X-Wing Alliance etc, I liked the design of the spacecraft. See here: http://starwars.wikia.com/wiki/R-41_Starchaser. --70.53.113.91 (talk) 18:36, 14 December 2014 (UTC)

Proposed deletion of Giuseppe Daodice

The article Giuseppe Daodice has been proposed for deletion because it appears to have no references. Under Wikipedia policy, this newly created biography of a living person will be deleted unless it has at least one reference to a reliable source that directly supports material in the article.

If you created the article, please don't be offended. Instead, consider improving the article. For help on inserting references, see Referencing for beginners, or ask at the help desk. Once you have provided at least one reliable source, you may remove the {{prod blp}} tag. Please do not remove the tag unless the article is sourced. If you cannot provide such a source within seven days, the article may be deleted, but you can request that it be undeleted when you are ready to add one. Dps04 (talk) 13:37, 9 April 2015 (UTC)
