ATTENTION

Hello Wikipedia, not sure who to contact, but because of the on-going name disputes between FYROM and Greece - a lot of individuals usually anonymous or people with interests in mind are changing historical events, ocations, etc to re-write history. Please help us to find these people and stop their nasty propaganda! Filia Angel (talk) 20:51, 7 May 2018 (UTC)

Pisidia and Nationalism

Hi. It's been a while since you edited, but I wanted to offer you help&info in case you do come back.

Wikipedia has seen a lot of Nationalistic edit-warfare related to FYROM and Greece, as you noticed. First, try to avoid calling it vandalism. Our definition of vandalism is when people deliberately cause damage, when they have malicious intent. Just because somebody is wrong or nationalistic does not make them a vandal.

The real problem with the Pisidia article is that it almost completely lacks references to verify the content on the page. Wikipedia's goal is to accurately summarize what Reliable sources say about a subject. The article doesn't cite any sources, so there's no way for an impartial and uninvolved editor to determine whether the article should say "Hellenistic" or "Macedonian". The article should use the term that most mainstream reliable and academic sources use. This should be viewed from a global perspective, not preferences or sources selected from one particular country.

It would be helpful if you could add references to the article. If you don't know how you can get help at the Teahouse, or you could just post good sources (and where to add them) on the article talk page. However if you just leave the info on the article-talk page it may be years before anyone notices and does the work to clean up the article. Alsee (talk) 09:06, 4 October 2019 (UTC)
