2604:, what does not serve a good image of Knowledge. We were, I think, on the way of reconciliation. You can help. My apologies but my explanation will involve a kind of meta-reflexive approach and more confidence in what will be said then it could be expected from even slightly biased administrator, will be needed. Please assume good will, to start with. The administrators, I am afraid, should know what is my concept for being on Knowledge. Such understanding will be essential for the reasonable response to my demand and the resolution of the current problem. I have not edited long articles up to now. It is my persuasion that Knowledge needs constructive critique and systematic improvements. Only in this way it may become Encyclopedia. I will certainly edit some articles that belong to my expertise, but in a due course. To criticize, I have chosen the most difficult subject that probably exists on Knowledge: history of ancient Macedonia. One of the reasons is that in my research I am close to one aspect of this (Aristotle's ethics) which is in the context of the Ancient Macedonia. The issue is complicated with actual politics and the dispute over the name of modern Republic of Macedonia, i.e., FYROM. It has been false to choose the most difficult case, may be. But on this example I am trying to achieve some improvements of method of Knowledge by 1. insisting on correct use of the sources (citing and evaluation of references), and 2. the very sensitive and, may be impossible issue of resistance to the improvements, libel or tolerance in the discussion. This involves the risks to be blocked from time to time. The disputes, I think, I managed well up to now. Surprising is that during these discussions, while quarreling over civilized communication and correct use of the sources, the problem of “Disruptive editing” appears which is hard to avoid. Then, it happened already two times, the administrators decide to block me. Indeed, the discussions on the use of the sources and civilized communications are not very short and provoke not only the editors to judge them disruptive but also the administrators. Up to now I have not arrived to the solution of this problem. In the present case, we have come to the limit I think. The problem of sources has been transferred to the problem of defamation and concrete and frequent libel and my pointing out at the corollaries of such behavior, legal aspects, has brought up quite unpleasant issue: the assumption that I threatened Knowledge, what is of course not the case. But without driving it to this limit, it was not possible to explicitly point out at the kind of errors that have been involved. My conclusion is, and I stated it in my last edits that are presented as my defense, that the administrators probably should raise their criteria for civilized communications and issue more frequent warnings. I believe that this will prompt the users to restrain from uncivilized communication. Thereby, further methodological corrections my be implemented, like more consequent sources citations, more tolerance in discussions and of course, more civility. The problem of disruptive editing in the course of such interventions of mine, I realize, will probably be solved by my shorter interventions and more precise articulations of the suggestions. I think that this dispute will rapidly be resolved as soon as I will be unblocked. However, I might abandon, and probably I should, this difficult issue and address more to the own editing and of course continue, may be, to be present on the issues which are less sensitive to such a critique. This may offer a chance for more compliance to the critique. Thank you for the understanding. 523:

Diadichi were Macedonians, Ptolomys went so far as to merry their sisters! to keep the Macedonian line!!! The garisons, almost all garisons, had the core of macedonian units…. !!! You really do not know what you are talking about, I am sory (please do not be insultet, I mean it figurativelly). I am trying to figure out why the Greeks (I presume that you are Greek, but tell me please if you are not) want to remove the name “Macedonia” from history? It is bewildering! You will force me to count the word “Macedonia” in Arrian, Diodorus, Justin (Trogus), Curtius or Plutarch, who are only existing early, but still tertiary sources on Alexanders biographies. I see that you and your “landsman” Kryston read and write English: please read one single book on history of Macedonia, read Hammond at least. Let alone the biographies. You will understand where is the emphasis of imperial power from the seconf half of 4th centuri to the 2nd century. It is ON MACEDONIA. Macedonia that has tremendous Hellenistic cultural impact, but Macedonia and NOT Hellas. There is no other solution then just reading. Please. I suported what I said with number of references that I gave, and your changes are pure vandalism, so I will take steps to punish you, I am sorry. If you are Greek nationalist, and since Macedonians were or become probably closer to the Hellens then to ANY other people in their surounding at that time, why do you then repudiate their importance? You are probably as much Macedonians as they are Greeks? I will never understand your absurd and certainly erroneous thinking. Please come back to this page AFTER HAVING READ some of the references that I gave you, but NOT BEFORE.

learning and vanity are particularly visible. A desire to “judge” about the others is prominent and appears immediately after the slightest conflict of opinion. In my case the remotely possible and quite improbable implied vicious meaning has been always taken as the intended meaning. The expression “not immediately” is understood in the sense of “but in the later course”, i.e. as announcing a future action in spite of my denial of that intention. And this has been an extreme example. My other conditional and careful objections and insistence on some alternative hypotheses, was directly interpreted as absolute “rubbish” and these particular word or its synonyms, and person denigrating expression systematically followed by the oponents. This has been tolerated by the anonymous administrators who obviously did not examin the discussion (except just one, "Excirial", who was later mocked at by Simanos!). My careful measured comments were taken as they were interpreted from the opponents in opinion and not as my intention had been. This has been, for example, tolelrated (addressed to above administrator, the same or similar words were addressed to me on numbe rof occasions): "Remove your warning to me please:

2781:"Accusations about personal behavior that lack evidence." There is ample evidence Draganparis is a sock-puppeteer, he was investigated twice and both times his socks were banned and he was blocked for a while. He was also blocked for disruptive editing (trolling). I mean, just look at his talk-page. It's one big personal attack and lies and trolling. Simanos (talk) 08:12, 22 April 2010 (UTC)". And this is apparently an opinion which is supported: Maintaing "strict policies on personal attacks" are, well, perhaps something you need to reflect on - one man's personal attack is another man's honest critique.(...) Pedro : Chat 22:38, 9 April 2010 (UTC) (All examples are from Simanos talk page). The later administrator permitted himself to state: WP:TLDNR. When, I believe, his duty, if he got involved in the case at all, has been to carefully read my response. Otherwise, he should not have expressed an opinion. Therefore this has been, I would think, uninformed decision to start with and superficial treatment of a trivial conflict. The discussion about the subject of conflict has been going on for 4 years. I kindly request now an access to my profile to remove it from the site. Thank you. 2082:

you too, but just be patient and talk about arguments not about me. I have no clue what science is, you said to me. But you know, you said, so I would say now you should know what is a good reference, what is not! Now you know who I am and whether I know what the science is and how to handle database. You remember what you wrote and how you mocked about me? I could now ask you to show me your science, prove your “we did excavations in Macedonien”. If you are scientist give me one your paper to read, as a colleague. You have all my articles on the Internet, hundreds of them, just look up. But enough of this. This is just a pity. If the administrator (I just hope they read this) just warned us ONCE to use correct references, not to make personal attacks, not to use open defamation (words layer for example which was addressed to me number of times by Simanos!), Knowledge could have been a nice place to be. But you can help. Make a new start with me. I am ready. Let us do as scientist do, yet we do not have to be scientist. But let us give a try. Let us just be fair. Science is nothing else, just fairness - with own consciousness.

2592:. A sentence "I am not hungry now" may mean, may have an implied meaning that "I will be hungry in the future." because I am a being that gets hungry, in principle. But if I state "I do not say that I will make a legal case immediately" just says that I am not in a state to urge a legal action. But if I were a being that always takes legal actions, my sentence would have similar implied meaning as the sentence about being hungry. I declare that up to now I HAVE NEVER undertaken a legal action against anybody. I just never accused somebody in the court in my life. This is provable. In addition, in my later edits I rejected the insinuation of GK1973 that I in exactly this sentence threatened with a legal case and, what is supporting my contention, I further developed on the issue and I suggested to Knowledge how to protect its editors (and indirectly itself) against such eventual actions in the future!!!! You misunderstood my later edits on ANI, I am afraid, or I just missed to make the issue clear? Although, I had at least 2 last edits which clearly state 1791:

this about Aristotle writing Republic (Plato's well known work). Since I have to quarrel with you and other similar guys, I can not find time to correct such hopeless texts. And if I wrote the entire text... you would block me. By the way: I have unfortunately just a few original POVs. All I normally write are jst the achievements of other people. Indeed, I published my original POVs (look my list of publications). I do not use them here on Knowledge. But what you call POV is often "other version of the truth", and not your version. Most often this is the scientific version of the truth, unfortunately - which you do not recognize. Like not accepting what Encyclopedia Britannica states about Cyril and Methodius (does not state anything!), but accepting what various tourist guides or second hand authors stated (they state "Greek brothers"), like the Pope (who is no reference in that respect!) or similar authors. Etc. (By the way, you see how normal discussion may be possible. Why do you behave so violently, so unfriendly on the discussion pages?)

2409:). Please read the text, it contains explicit negation of a desire for legal action. This was a response to the accusations for an intention for legal action, which was an insinuation of the person (GK1973) who primarily defamed me and a part of his strategy to be protected from block for uncivil behaviour. On the contrary, I was even proposing to Knowledge measures of protection against legal responsibility in similar circumstances and also proposing rational resolution of the current dispute with apologies which I presented to the other party and demanded their apology at the same time. My excuses were already presented. if they presented the excuses to me for explicit libel, our mutual problem would have been solved. It would have been on Knowledge then to decide whether the other party would have to be punished for the explicit libel with an appropriate measure, block for some reasonable time or some other measures. This was what I explicitly stated. How could such a statement, which was clear, be interpreted as a legal treat, please? 507:

of Macedon was, it is uncontested that at least Alexander, Philip and all ruling house of Macedon in general, viewed and declared themselves as officially a Greek dynasty with origins from Argos. Secondly, after the hellenistic era began, the Macedonians were finally accepted into the Greek world and there's no question of separate ethnicity anymore (that's as far as Greece goes). As for the Hellenistic Kingdoms, those were composed by colonies founded by Greeks of many cities and not just one metropolis (mother city) like in the old colonisation days. This is the main difference between Hellenistic and ancient Greek colonisations, independence of a mother city. So really, there's no question of "ethnic macedonians" in that topic. To make such statements it's unscientific with a bit of chauvinism as it involves injecting a modern nationalist conflict into ancient, unrelated history. Many have tried doing that in wikipedia but it has never worked...

1390:

of my arguments is not a proof that they supported my views – they read my comments and used my arguments, this is quite logical. My opponents also use my arguments and also disagree with me! In fact the “accused” displayed the views that were quite different from my views. The 3 accused displayed clear pro-Macedonian (modern Macedonia) nationalistic points of views which I obviously do not share and never endorsed on these pages. If this would be also your opinion, even if all of them were operating from our common IP address – what I still doubt, then this could NOT BE a case of “sockpoppeting”. In this context, to say, as some of my opponents said, that their displaying disagreement is further proof of them being my sockpoppets, is just absurd. In addition, the fact that this could have been something what I could not control, then I should not be held responsible for this.

2182:

crime but only violates the Knowledge rules. This is not a combat of life and death but "should be" civilized discussion about various arguments and NOT about you and me and our presumed personalities. You do not have to be so extremely aggressive as you appear to be. If these my comments drive you so far, please do not communicate with me. This will immediately solve the problem. I started avoiding communicating with you just because I saw that you, in my opinion, overreact. You are just too sensitive. I fear that you will the word "overreact" also consider as insulting. Please: it is not. You claim to be a scientist (you have free access to "Jstor", you did excavations - why not?). OK, you have my telephone number, stay anonymous, I do not mind, but call me, let us talk like colleagues and solve the problem. I am not anonymous, I stand as I am in front of you. OK?

editor" is concerned.. he is another strange reactivated 10 edit single purpose account that happened to restart contributing to Wiki now that you have... (checked his history...coincidence? Maybe.) It is no perseverance that drives me, but some people's political agenda to attack history. My answers were exremely short, all points usually merit more analysis than what I gave and as far as references were concerned, I gave references as far as new data was concerned (for example Aeschynes). Giving proper references to generalities is not usually done unless asked for. Your points were also unreferenced (or sometimes malreferenced) and it was up to me to ask you for references where I found discrepancies. We were not writing in Knowledge, we were supposedly engaged in an off-topic discussion.

2225:

unfulfilled ambitions to overtake others in knowledge, or by being important scientist. I failed too. I become an important scientist, yes, but "this", it is something else. Strange, I always see before my eyes that statue of sitting Aristotle on the Aristotle's square in Thessaloniki, and this particular though makes me be calm and satisfied. This is may be "this", and one of the reasons why I oppose those who want to remove the Ancient Macedonia from history. Aristotle, who was from a Greek family, embraced Macedonia. You want to remove it, "this is all Greece!", you say. The FYROM people want to adopt it, to grab it, and you want to absorb it, to swallow it, and you both want may be to keep it away even from the past! Why don't you all leave it there where it was. Why?

2198:

clearly not the case. Your admittance that your conduct violated Knowledge rules also clearly shows that you were in knowledge of what you did and chose to do it. I have no wish to reveal my identity, nor discuss with you over a phone or even in a chat room. These discussion pages, where everything is recorded and archived for further use are much better. I warned you some weeks ago that I would not tolerate your misconduct anymore and instead you kept on spamming accusations/rumors/fears/personal conclusions etc. No matter what you name your edits, I did warn you to stop and instead you chose to disregard me and Knowledge policy. So, DP, I am not overreacting. I am just protecting myself, 3-4 other users and the future victims of your "civility".

1853:

given page? Particularly if the suspects are in the same city, as this has been proved by an administrator for the mentioned group, and in addition! always blindly agreeing with the others? I identified a group of four or six editors who avoiding sourced justifications of arguments, always agree when a consensus is asked for, mainly not about validity of some source, but particularly when an opponent is to be blocked for insisting on some specific point. First they start with insults and mockery, and then my demand for a decent communication is also taken as disturbing, and demand is filed, as now, to block me. As I can see, the custom of insulting editors is spreading (

669:

from blind quarrels of FYROM and Greek nationalists. I thought this would suit you better. But, dear friend. I answered on your talk and think that we brought the boat into calm waters. I said, in the end, these days were dynamic and we both learned something. In spite of all, it has been pleasure discussing with you in the end. My message to you is: read more original works. From time to time -may be every two years -I get in these blind discussions. Nex time I will use your text to persuade the next blind "Googwick" to start doing normal science and learn something. I hope that after this experience you will tray to produce useful work for Knowledge. Good luck.

1590:

would not like to be. People like to be what they believe to be and the majority believes that the objective history should be pursued in principle. These above mentioned courageous fighters for Hellenism prefer to hide behind their anonymity and diligently neutralize all my efforts to bring some objective history to the pages of Knowledge. They erase all what I write on the corresponding pages. Therefore, I will run "chronicles" on bias on my talk page, thanks to a friendly advice of Taivo. From now on almost all what I will be objecting to the Ancient Macedonian (not modern Macedonia!) history pages on Knowledge will be on my talk page. You are also welcome.

2048:

since. I did not form new accounts nor would it be your job to even criticize that. In a single line you accuse me of being a member of some cabala, of wanting to hide from someone (why would I, anybody would wonder...) etc. And this "ATTENTION"!!?? What is this? Some kind of notification to editors to protect themselves? I can bring forward countless instances of personal attacks, blunt name-calling and insults towards me and other users but this is not what I am accusing you of here. The accusation is slander and, as it seems, you happily admit to it. And of course, there is much more proof of your misconduct presented in the ANI page.

258:

from all texts related to the ancient Macedonian kingdom or later provinces that kept that expression down to the Ottoman empire. I do not know how any of these sides can profit (Greek or Macedonian) sinc the Ancient Macedonia is so distant and certainly is connected to any of modern states of today no more and no less as today’s Egypt or today’s Israel are connected to “their” ancient states. I must admit I was not able to grasp the meaning of your second paragraüph but if it contained some aggressive meaning I would like to ask you to present to me your appology. If I am wrong, the appology is due from my side.

1988:

normal argumentation. I am projecting arguments and references, they are throwing personal insults and "reporting" me for disrupting editing. As soon as my name appeares - this is diruptiv editing. They are profiting form the fact that the voluntary administrators have too much work and cannot go into details and do not really see what is going on. I unfortunately never presented detailed report, always thinking that my opponents will come to reason. When I call, like now, for reason and decent communication, they are mocking about my demands. What could be done, please to stop this?

1898:

blocked for trolling and for sock-puppets. And stop twisting the findings of investigations with your spin. We're not even all in the same city as you say. IPs are pretty similar for all Greece. And 70% of population is in 2 cities (Athens and Thessaloniki) so it's not a big coincidence that some are in the same city. You may see yourself as opponent as much as you like, but we did not block you. Uninvolved admins blocked you. When will you own up to your PROVEN mistakes? It is not healthy to be in denial or in conspiracy theorist mode all the time.

1955:

just demand that Drtaganparis is forced to stop "warning" the community about a danger he alone perceives and in the process slandering my and other users' names. If I kept writing that you "might" be a fanatic anticanadian user who "might" be a sock of all other US Wiki users, that would be quite possible no matter what the truth is. Draganparis maintains that the word "might" which he sometimes uses along with his accusations are excuse enough to say antything he wants. This is the problem and nothing more. Plain, simple systematic slander.

1371:

deal with this also. First, I have nothing to do with Maxkrueg 1 or Maxkrueger editing, although the culprit(s) must be in my surrounding, but I ignore who they are. Judging from their edits, these users strongly disagreed with me and are unlikely to be cooperating with me for their edits on Knowledge. I suspect a student (in fact there are 3 suspects!) from the department where I work, but will not pursue the investigation in order to protect the students from unnecessary trouble and because I consider the affair trivial.

633:

discussion. I knew that your level of understanding of ancient writings was low, but this? id you think I would not find the source of your "learned" questions? I was stricken by the similarity of style and arguments of questions I had accepted in the past, so I thought I would google them up to see if there was a precompiled text. To my amazement, EVERY SINGLE ONE of your "questions", was a blunt copy paste (comments included) from :

2070:

your name and I want to inform people that the new name may be yours. It is probably legal to change the name but is indicative of a “need” and neither I nor many of other people want to be detectives all the time and look who this could be. Be strait, say who you are. You even know where my office is and what I do, and can call me by the phone at any moment! Yes, I am OPEN to you, to your arguments. Is this disturbing being sincere?

Well, if you agree, and I jump in and say I do not agree and give the arguments, when 4 of you jump on me and want to silence me (not to disapprove!! To silence me!) What is this than? Is this fair?

that Cyril and Methodius are "Greek missionaries" and not just "missionaries (as the Encyclopedia Britannica states) - raise a suspicion in me that they have some other intentions. I repeated this 2-3 times - instead of producing argumentative discussion, they directly insulted me. If I would object, they will mock about this and ask me to go away.

2157:

otherwise offensive you are free to report me... And yes, you have filled up pages with lies (not POVS, not arguments I do not agree with, but blunt lies) and I also can prove it, although I have not reported you for them. But these excuses of yours cannot be otherwise described, I think "surrealistically paranoid" is a very matching term...

2810:. Your account will remain blocked until you explicitly state that you are not pursuing legal action in conjunction with the dispute concerned. Also be advised that repetitively making an unblock request when there is no substantial difference between the reasons given for each is a fast road to having your talk page access withdrawn. 1857:) and I am convinced that a discreet warning by the administrator would suffice to calm the spirits and would help have normal discussions. Punishing, no matter which side, is probably not a solution. Instead an advice and recommendation about how to resolve the blocked situation would be, I think, reasonable solution at this point. 462:, seriously, click it) to accept your changes, while still disagreeing. That's how Knowledge works. Last time you made these changes, someone else disagreed with you, and they changed your edits too. Then the idea is, you take the issue to the article's talk page, and you look for others who agree with you, you don't just 224:

Their (here's that word again) nationalistic agenda is simply to claim the 'heroes' of the ancient world like Alexander as their own national heroes. Making him Slav, Albanian, and any other ethnicity. So again, I didn't touch that edit, but please expect me to readily remove anything that blatantly doesn't comply with

2630:. Your phrase grammatically suggested that you may take legal action later: that was a threat, and was intended to quell discussion. Your continued use of the word "defamation" above (again, a legal term) merely emphasizes the legal aspect of your interactions. If you have been "defamed", then you take it to 577:. your futile try to sell Hellenistic era, as Macedonian era (or Makedonski era in your language) is not gonna succeed because people as you see from very different nations know the Spartans, know the Athenians, know the Macedonians ie know the Greeks. your right or not to use a regional term of Greek etymology 486:

the Greek-Macedonia dispute, I would probably get about eight wrong; maybe seven, maybe nine. I hardly qualify as an insider. But hey, no offense taken, I'm pretty sure I accused you of a little Macedonian nationalism as well when you first arrived on Knowledge. That certainly wasn't good faith on my part.

688:

willingness to properly answer, especially when it is you who initiated this after my continuous demands that you stop, after contacting other editors to show them how I "avoided" arguing with you, after having been exposed as a copy paster from nationalistic sites, clearly shows what had to be shown.

3017:

And the last. I am curious how you explain the fact that all administrators accept that I can be called: a liar. I never said something what was not true or I stated what was not true but without knowing this, so this could not be a lie. One editor stated number of times that I was lying not to admit

3009:

HERE IT IS: Thanks to you both, it was kind to explain. I declared number of times already that the legal treat was not intended. If you think it was intended, by my rejecting this interpretation I retracted that eventual meaning and I am retracting again now this what you think that was intended. My

I stated my doubts that they, since their homes are obviously in the same city, may be communicating.

The pages you cite are about mythology so this is fine so far it is not interpreted as history (as you and your group tries to do on history pages of Macedonia). But the entire article is badly written and these false citations make entire article just hopeless.There are more ridiculous mistakes like

I would however plead again and again to the administrators to demand the editors involved in this disputes to restrain from mockery on my account (even on this very page as on the page where I reported some of my opponents for the violation of Knowledge rules!) since this also violates the principle

I obviously do not have an intention to pursue this case further, but the danger exists that somebody else could.

1370:

Would you please read my edits on Knowledge (I know this is boring, but if you accepted to do the unpleasant “job”…). And read my explanations too. I have been accused to be sockpuppeting with two other persons from my surroundings. There is potential accusation related to 2 other editors too. I will

It is obvious you cannot handle to read long texts (then maybe you shouyld not have poses that many questions?), as is obvious you cannot handle writing long texts (which is also required in a "serious" discussion, where resorting to nationalistic sites is not acceptable). As far as this "complaining

Calling me an 'insider of the Greek-FYROM Problem' is not really assuming good faith.

There is no censorship of the fact that the ancient Macedonians had dominated the Greek-city states and were the founders of these kingdoms. That information is there for everyone to read.

Actually sir I left your edits to that article 100% in tact, and the wording I removed (the redundant use of Macedon and Macedonia in the same sentence) was not even added by you, it was there before you got here.

I do not know whether this what I am doing now: writing on my "talk" page is OK. You never said "click on edit theis page" when asking question (for example).

3188:

Is SGGH supporting such incivility? A normal calm scientific discussion turns out to explicit insult (GK1973 write that I am lying) and an administrator warns ME for inflaming. Is normal argumentation "inflaming" because it proves something what is not wanted? The SGGH asks me to let go, when I just

2983:

Oh, I read the entire situation. The entire wall-o-text. Your recent edits, and all the places you said to look: Your new unblock misses the key point: you will NEVER be unblocked until you fully retract what so many admins have now seen as a legal threat. At this point, intended or not, it is the

2224:

You see, there is no need for insults. Self consciousness insults us the most. And we all have it. It may even terrorize us. I know that you have it, it will grab you when you realize that you were publicly unjust, unfair, incoherent and unfriendly. Without any obvious reason, just may be because of

2075:

Then that language: “Cabala”???? What is this mystical word? The use of these words is what makes all look so dangerous and like murderous action. It is the same with the word “sockpuppet”. People do not do sockpuppeting. Never. They support each other opinion, most often because they agree on these

2047:

or do you think that using the word "maybe" as in "maybe he is a convicted rapist hiding from justice" makes it a well justified, unbiased and friendly remark? I chose to write off the number from my nick for my own reasons and you know that it still is visible in the history of any article I edited

1979:

Could please Mr.GK (I presume GK1973) cite ONE INSULTING WORD that I ever addressed to him? At least one word please. Or to anybody else. Have I ever called somebody a layer, or used any other insulting word? On the contrary, I had to take insults of all sorts (even on these page); any my new source

632:

Although I commented on all points and produced mine, in hope that you will also make the effort to address them in a more academic way than you did yours, I have to tell you that lack of research and blind use of nationalistic sites such as the above are not an acceptable way to conduct any kind of

257:

What is obvious is that some politically interested “historians” instead of keepong their Macednonia/Greek disputes to be expressed at some other apropriate place, insist on introducing them all over the ancient history pages in Knowledge. What is done is “systematic removal” of the word “Macedonia”

223:

Apologies, but I have to add another short comment. This concerns the other accusations.
