== Copying ==
 
Hello there! I've been watching you copying the style of my user page for the last couple of weeks, I have to admit I find it most amusing. It must be a tradition for you people to copy things from Greeks and others, right? Keep up the good job! [[User:A Macedonian|A Macedonian, a Greek.]] ([[User talk:A Macedonian|talk]]) 06:35, 12 January 2011 (UTC)
 
:It is entertaining that you say Macedonians copy "Greeks", you think it is not well documented that mentioning "Macedonian" indicated oil down your mouth? How about you read on the trillions of dollars spent on propaganda over the last 20 years by your government in order to denounce the Macedonians. It may very well be a reason why your county is begging for the EU to bail it out now, but you already know this since you are one of those paid to spread more propaganda.
 
:Even the Vlachs look down at Greeks stating Macedonia would not even be a part of Greece today if it wasn't for them. Before the Megali Idea introduced by a non-Greek, ancient Macedonians were viewed as destroying Greek culture and there is plenty of proof that Greek historians at that time felt the same way. Even after the Megali Idea, there were Greek militants and historians showing that Macedonians were present and were their own ethnic group. There is a reason why the "Makedonika language" was not understood by Greek militants.
 
:Macedonia and Macedonians was Slavicized a long time ago, having the two cultures mix into one. Identification based on religious affiliation does not denounce Macedonian claim to being partly descendant from ancient Macedonians. Most of the Greeks living in Macedonia are descendent's of refugee who didn't speak Greek, let alone Macedonian. They were put in Macedonia in order to "make it Greek"/Hellenize it. Those people native to Macedonia were Hellenized through the church, school and terror. You are a descendant of these people, who always go back 2,000 years to make there unrealistic dreams of identity come true, while ignoring the last 200 years.

Please do not make statements attacking people or groups of people. Wikipedia has a strict policy against [[Wikipedia:No personal attacks|personal attacks]]. [[Wikipedia:Attack_page|Attack pages]] and images '''are not tolerated''' by Wikipedia and are [[Wikipedia:Criteria for speedy deletion|speedily deleted]]. Users who continue to create or repost such pages and images in violation of our [[Wikipedia:Biographies of living persons|biographies of living persons]] policy will be [[Wikipedia:Blocking policy|blocked]] from editing Wikipedia. Thank you.
 
If you think that this notice was placed here in error, you may contest the deletion by adding {{tlc|hang on}} to '''the top of [[:User:Mactruth|the page that has been nominated for deletion]]''' (just below the existing speedy deletion, or "db", tag; if no such tag exists, then the page is no longer a speedy delete candidate and adding a hang-on tag is unnecessary), coupled with adding a note on '''[[User talk:Mactruth|the talk page]]''' explaining your position, but be aware that once tagged for ''speedy'' deletion, if the page meets the criterion, it may be deleted without delay. Please do not remove the speedy deletion tag yourself, but don't hesitate to add information to the page that would render it more in conformance with Wikipedia's policies and guidelines. <!-- Template:Db-attack-notice --><!-- Template:Db-csd-notice-custom --> -- [[User:Boing! said Zebedee|Boing! said Zebedee]] ([[User talk:Boing! said Zebedee|talk]]) 10:42, 17 January 2011 (UTC)
:I just want to let you know why I nominated your User page for deletion. While there's no problem including details of your ethnic/national/cultural origins (in fact, I think it's good to do so, as it helps show the diversity of Wikipedians), a lot of that page appears to be derogatory criticism of other ethnic groups, which is really not in keeping with Wikipedia's ethos of collegial editing for the good of human knowledge. -- [[User:Boing! said Zebedee|Boing! said Zebedee]] ([[User talk:Boing! said Zebedee|talk]]) 11:27, 17 January 2011 (UTC)
 
==Advice about your userpage==
Another admin declined the speedy deletion - I would have declined too, as it doesn't fall into what I would class an attack page, more a statement of how you view things. However, I note you have a few comments about it. If it starts arguments, then you may find it preferable to modify it in order to prevent issues for yourself. I also note your comments about websites and reliable sources - I dare say you've tried the reliable sources noticeboard....?

== Discussion at [[WP:ANI]] ==
 
OK, the speedy deletion of your User page was declined - and after some further thought I think that decision was correct (as it is not "wholly" an attack page). However, I do think some parts of it constitute unacceptable attacks on Greece, Greeks, and on some unnamed Wikipedia editors, and it shows you approaching Wikipedia with a [[WP:BATTLE|Battlefield]] mentality rather than in accordance with Wikipedia's ethos of collegial editing for the furthering of human knowledge. I have raised a discussion at [[WP:ANI#User:Mactruth]], which I hope you might take some note of, and perhaps act on. -- [[User:Boing! said Zebedee|Boing! said Zebedee]] ([[User talk:Boing! said Zebedee|talk]]) 12:15, 17 January 2011 (UTC)

===Blocked===
Further to the above-mentioned [[WP:ANI#User:Mactruth|ANI thread]], I've '''blocked your account indefinitely'''. It seems that you are here to further ethnic conflict rather than build an encyclopedia, and you've had a number of blocks and warning about this before. You have also been notified of [[WP:ARBMAC]] so you were aware of the consequences of doing [http://en.wikipedia.org/w/index.php?title=User%3AMactruth&action=historysubmit&diff=408342859&oldid=407388347 this] [http://en.wikipedia.org/w/index.php?title=User_talk%3AMactruth&action=historysubmit&diff=408351654&oldid=407430405 sort] of thing.

{{unblock reviewed| reason=I am requesting an unblock, while I agree that changing "A Macedonian, A Greek" to "A Christian refugee wishing he was a Macedonian" was a bit extreme, I was doing it because it was [http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/User_talk:Mactruth#Copying instigated] by [[User:A_Macedonian]]. My user page is my views and uses unbiased books as sources, and has similar format to [[User:A_Macedonian]] user page, which also post provocative statements like "I speak Greek like Alexander the Great did, not a modern '''Bulgaro-Serbian Slavic language''' like Gjorge Ivanov does." I posted these sources on my page because even though these statements are not written by Macedonians (unbiased) they are not allowed to be used as a source on Wikipedia pages. I would contribute to Wikipedia if the sources used were not deleted immediately by Bulgarians and Greeks. Administrators should remove biased sources while insuring unbiased sources remain in the pages, something that [[User:Future_Perfect_at_Sunrise]] has failed to do.

Indeed, if we parse down your unblock request to only those statements relating to your behavior, we are left with the following: ''"I am requesting an unblock..."'', which is problematic. I will note my review in the ANI thread, for the record.

:I think some of your User page comments take the battlefield mentality up a level. As I said in the ANI report, [[User:Mactruth#How propaganda works]] is attacking Greece and Greek Wikipedia editors, and [[User:Mactruth#Articles of irresponsible treatment of Macedonians by Greece]] is another attack on Greece. I'm not an admin, but I'd expect to see some backing down from those and some commitment to cease the ethnic infighting and the deliberate battlefield mentality, and to engage in collegial editing - but having had a look back at your history, I really think that ethnic battling is your only aim here -- [[User:Boing! said Zebedee|Boing! said Zebedee]] ([[User talk:Boing! said Zebedee|talk]]) 20:49, 17 January 2011 (UTC)
 
::It doesn't matter whether it is up a level, the bottom line is Greeks have a battlefield mentality also that is ignored on Wikipedia, 2 examples:
 
:::[[User:A_Macedonian]] states: "I speak Greek like Alexander the Great did, not a modern '''Bulgaro-Serbian Slavic language''' like Gjorge Ivanov does." It is also worth noting that this persons' username is "A Macedonian" yet he signs as "A Macedonian, A Greek" in order to provoke.
 
:::[[User:Sthenel]] states: "This user would support a solution of the Naming Issue for FYROM in the form of: '''Vardarska'''."
 
::The [[User:Mactruth#Articles of irresponsible treatment of Macedonians by Greece]] articles were placed there because they were not allowed to be added to the [[Macedonia name dispute]] article, while many articles bashing Macedonia was allowed.
 
::The [[User:Mactruth#How propaganda works]] article was written in order to make admins aware that propaganda sites were being used and allowed by admins:

{{unblock reviewed | 1= I am willing to be productive to Wikipedia if the administrators insure non-biased sources can be used on Macedonia related pages. It is embarrassing for Wikipedia to allow these sources to be deleted just because they show a Macedonian view that goes against Greek or Bulgarian views.

Having a user like user:A Macedonian spreading as much propaganda and hatred on his page, going as far as stating the Macedonian language is a "Bulgaro-Serbian Language" and then making up an absurd reason to cover his tracks, while blocking me infinitely for the same actions shows how polar against Macedonians Wikipedia is becoming. You don't want me posting articles on Greek misbehavior against Macedonians? Well I'm sorry but those events did occur but the Greeks have been trying to deliberately block those sources from being put in Wikipedia pages, hence the reason why I put it on my page.

While all constructive contributions to Wikipedia are appreciated, pages may be [[WP:DEL#REASON|deleted for any of several reasons]].
 
You may prevent the proposed deletion by removing the {{Tlc|proposed deletion/dated files}} notice, but please explain why in your [[Help:edit summary|edit summary]] or on [[File talk:Will Aid Macedonians.jpg|the file's talk page]].
