User talk:Paradise Chronicle

Didn't find a better template, so that will be it for now. I will still reply to queries, but maybe not as swiftly as before. If I do not reply within a week, I suggest you try to find another solution.

This is placed here because a site ban was demanded for me (some user pages get deleted then in my experience). I tried to be constructive in my defense and edits but nothing seems to work, then I believe it's time to leave Wikipedia.

Some info about me
I am Paradise Chronicle. I like to contribute to Wikipedia and while doing so, I also learn a lot. About editing and about the events and locations I am editing on. My former account was User451819913. Both accounts together are a good example of a Wikipedia career from an editor who doesn't know what a watchlist or a talk page is (as in the beginning in the German Wikipedia) to what I am now. I have entered Wikipedia over the German Wikipedia but after some struggles and also blocked attempts to return to the German Wikipedia, I feel quite comfortable in the English Wikipedia. I also edit a bit at commons. My areas of editing are various, initially I was mainly interested in the Kurdish-Turkish conflict area to which I added some peaceful articles. Later this expanded to Kurdish art, theater and politics, justice and I have also created a series of articles on Swiss politicians, a range on Armenian and women politicians as well, specially since I am a member of Women in Red. After I received access to some (good) books on (Swiss) printers, I expanded and also created several articles in that area.
Articles I feel good having created them
As to me an interesting article about Kurdish women in Turkey of a time and situation very little is to be found in the mainstream media. Turks saw the Kurds as savage and wanted to transform them into civilized Turkish speaking people. They were often successful.

Institute that published books denying the existence of a Kurdish nationality on explicit demand from Turkish president Cemal Gürsel. Gürsel demanded scientific proof of the Turkish origin/Turkishness of Kurds and its members needed to have at least a PhD to be qualified enough for membership.

Mainly known for being the author of a book which denied the existence of Kurds. The book became famous after the Turkish president, the leader of the military junta Cemal Gürsel penned a foreword to his book crediting Fırat with having shown with “scientific evidence“ that Kurds are actually Turks

Peace initiative called after a prominent Kurdish poet which had the support of several European parliamentarians and two Noble peace prize awardees. Hook suggestion for DYK: ...that the Musa Anter peace train was mentioned to have transformed into a plane after it was stalled by the German authorities? But needs more reliable sources. Two Noble Peace prize awardees involved, Harold Pinter (at the time not yet a Nobel prize awardee) writes about a photograph exhibit on the Peace Train which he attends and almost no sources... difficult to believe, I hope to find more.

Articles about Turkish regions in Kurdish majority provinces in a time and situation, little is to be found in the main stream media. Google it, try it out. At the time, Kurds were able to be fined for every word separately they spoke in the Kurdish language in the Inspectorate Generals, (Source from Andrew Mango[1]) but I do not have a source for when they started to apply it. So I don't add it for now. Both articles could use an expansion

On an interesting trial not for the events during the trial (them also) but more for what happened before and around the trial / Like his lawyers didn't receive the case file of more than 15.000 pages even after the trial has begun? Or that dozens of his lawyers had to go to prison for years while being accused of crimes like mentioning their clients name in a phone call or walking past an Internet cafe?

Also an article about a Turkish region with a considerable Non-Turkish (Jewish) population. Needs expansion

About a closure case against a political party having been closed in violation their human rights (according to the ECHR)

About a closure case against an active political party which is rather well known for supporting democracy, Kurdish culture and language and women's political rights?

About a memorable event for peace, religion and cultures and of course... Kurdistan ...Did you know a Kurdish member of Parliament in Turkey was prosecuted for making propaganda for a terrorist organization because he was pleased by or supported the issuing of a commemorative stamp which depicted the Pope and Kurdistan?[2][3]

About a colossal statue I first didn't believe it existed

"About a not so well known but rather influential jurist, humanist and collector from Basel."
