== Introduction ==<br />
<br />
The '''Empire of Barbettia''' (often referred to as just '''Barbettia''') is a secessionist micronation that was founded on 15 February 2016. The Empire of Barbettia has a constitution, active government, and developed culture. The Empire of Barbettia is a capitalist state with a free market. Barbettia's culture includes national foods, drinks, literature, and music. The government of Barbettia is unique in that it is a constitutional [[diarchy]], led by two Kings. The Empire of Barbettia is currently enclaved by the [[w:United States|United States of America]].<br />
<br />
== History ==<br />
<br />
Barbettia was founded on 15 February 2016, the date that the Original Constitution was ratified. The constitution states that Barbettia was created to "build on and preserve our culture." The Barbettian Kings saw micronationalism as an opportunity to protect and grow Barbettia's existing culture. But before the nation officially came to be, the Barbettian culture existed. A Barbettian language was conceived in 2008. Barbettian was originally developed as a secretive language that was only used by the Kings of Barbettia, but when Barbettia became a nation, it became an official language of the Empire. From 2008 to 2018, the Kings worked to add words, syntax, and grammar to the language. In 2018, Barbettian was put out of functional use and is only used for ceremonial purposes. <br />
<br />
The original constitution was different from the current one in that it created a national currency, the Barbett, which has since been revoked. The Barbett was based on the worth and value of Barbettian assets. This total value was then divided by the number of Barbetts in circulation, assigning a certain worth to each Barbett. Barbetts were minted by the Kings of Barbettia, using hammers and cold minting techniques. They were made of metal. One Barbett was then divided into 100 centavos. <br />
<br />
The Barbett was revoked after the new constitution of 2018 was ratified. The new constitution emphasized a free market with no regulations. The new constitution also did away with the idea of a central Barbettian bank and standardized currency. After the new constitution was ratified, there was simply no need for the Barbett when any other world currency could work in Barbettia. <br />
<br />
In order to spread word of Barbettia's creation, the first Barbettian Arts and Culture Show was held in early 2016. It showcased Barbettian coins, documents, history, symbols, and music to foreigners. <br />
<br />

[[File:Barbettianshow.PNG|150px|thumb|right|A whiteboard with Barbettian facts for foreigners]]<br />
<br />
Passports were created shortly after the foundation of Barbettia in 2016. These passports were made to permit entry to and from the temporary Barbettian territorial claim, enclaved by the United States. However, in 2017 they were revoked for a multitude of reasons. One of the reasons was that Barbettia is looking for a more permanent territory before it begins to enforce immigration laws and border security. <br />
<br />
On 15 February 2018, a new constitution was created. It was signed on 18 February 2018. On 29 August 2018, the citizens of the Empire of Barbettia elected their first president, Adam Trencher. See "Government Structure" for more details on the Barbettian president. As of February 2019, there are 10 citizens in Barbettia.<br />
<br />
== Government structure ==<br />
<br />
Barbettia has a relatively unique form of government called a [[Diarchy]]. A [[Diarchy]] is like a monarchy, except there are two Kings instead of one. The Diarchy must make all decisions together. Should they disagree, the President shall act as either a tiebreak and side completely with one King, or suggest a compromise which both Kings must agree to. The Diarchy is all powerful and is only limited by the Constitution and Laws. A King succeeds his power to his first child or a designated person at death or resignation. A President is elected by popular vote annually. The Diarchy can form new government positions by delegating any of its many powers to another citizen.<br />
<br />
Barbettia is also unique because the Constitution gives the Diarchy nearly absolute power; however, the Kings may then delegate that power to another citizen, thus creating a new position in the government. Nearly all powers in the government are reserved under the Diarchy until the Kings wish to delegate that power to another citizen and create a new ministry or office in the government for that power. <br />
<br />
Tbe Diarchy act as legislature for the Empire. However, legislature is also conducted at the State level. This is done democratically. States may make their own laws provided that they are not in conflict with the ideals set out in the constitution. Barbettian state legislature permits any citizen of a state to propose a law. Every three months, a state voting day is held where all citizens above the age of 14 can vote yes or no to proposed laws. Should 60% or more vote yes, the law is ratified. The executive position in a state is the Duke. The Duke has all non-legislative powers for the state, and answers directly to the Diarchy. The Duke can be replaced by the Kings. <br />
<br />
Barbettia's government also includes territories, which are all parts of Barbettia not claimed under a state. They must follow all Barbettian laws, obey the Constitution, and will be protected by the Barbettian Guard. <br />
<br />
Barbettia's economy is capitalist, and there is currently no legislation or regulation on Barbettia's economy. It is a completely free market that is open to business, trade, and development of all kinds. <br />

== Culture ==<br />
<br />
=== Language ===<br />
<br />
Barbettia has a well-developed culture. Barbettia created its own language, drinks, cuisine, and music. Ceremonial Barbettian music is written in the ceremonial language, Barbettian. The Barbettian language, though once spoken as a regular language, is now reserved for ceremonial purposes. It was originally a secret language, but is now open to all Barbettian citizens. Barbettians speak Esperanto, Portuguese and English for day to day communication. <br />
<br />
<br />
=== Food ===<br />
<br />
One popular dish in Barbettia is Rice samosas (samosas with only rice inside of them, but cooked without the rice first). Rice, beans, and avocados are some popular foods eaten in Barbettia. Barbettian drinks include milk, ginger ale, and clove ale. Clove ale is a drink invented by one of the Barbettian Kings. It is made in a similar way to Ginger Ale, but with the flavor of cloves instead. Barbettians use a variety of spices to make their food taste good. Some Barbettians bake bread and pastries. In the spirit of self-sufficiency, some Barbettians grow their own food and support organic farming. <br />
<br />
[[File:Cake.PNG|150px|thumb|center|A Barbettian favorite: Carrot cake]]<br />
<br />
=== Activities and festivities ===<br />
<br />
Barbettians celebrate Independence Day, on February 15. On Barbettian Independence Day, Barbettians celebrate their rights such as free speech, and freedom of religion and expression. Barbettian folk songs include "Grine yak doich epa grine yak hoise," and "Tros epa laja mindo ril Barbettian," and "Aboba epa ama." These songs are recited at the Barbettian Arts and Culture Show. The National Anthem of the Empire of Barbettia is "Tros epa laja mindo ril Barbettian." It consists of six verses, and is 80 words long. The anthem has piano sheet music and vocals. <br />
<br />
Common activities in Barbettia are chess, association football, table tennis, and pong ball (a Barbettian-invented sport). Pong Ball is a team sport played on a (preferably indoor) court. There are teams of at least 2 to up to 5 players, and each team has its own goal and goalie. More information can be seen here: [https://www.topendsports.com/sport/new/pong-ball.htm Pong Ball]. <br />
<br />

<br />
=== Literature ===<br />
<br />
Barbettian literature is mostly fictional, and ranges from fantasy to science fiction, and from dystopian novels to general action/adventure novels. One type of book that makes Barbettia unique is a collaborative fiction book. This would be where one author writes a chapter, and another writes the next chapter, and so on. Another unique characteristic of Barbettia's literature would be extensive development of settings. The settings in Barbettian books are detailed and planned outside of the book. This is known as [[w:worldbuilding|worldbuilding]]. Detailed pictures and models of Barbettian-created worlds are created to help the authors visualize what's going on in the story and where the characters are. <br />
<br />

<br />
<br />
=== National Symbols ===<br />
<br />
National animal: Dog <br />
<br />
National sports: Association Football, Table Tennis, Pong Ball (a Barbettian-created sport). <br />
<br />
National bird: Golden eagle.<br />
<br />
The flag and coat of arms are symbolic, with each symbol and color having a meaning. The fleur de lise represents the abundance of Barbettian agriculture, the bow and arrow represent the strength of the military, the soccer ball depicts one of the national sports, the conifer represents Barbettia's devotion the environment, and the crown represents the power of the government. <br />
<br />
The chess knights on the coat of arms represents the importance of chess in the Empire of Barbettia, and the golden eagle on the coat of arms is the national bird. Below the coat of arms is depicted the national motto. The crown in the coat of arms shows that the monarchs have full control over all of these things.<br />
<br />
== Military ==<br />
<br />
The Barbettian military is formally known as the Barbettian Guard. It is composed mostly of Barbettian citizens. While there are only three members of the Barbettian Guard today, in the future there will be private security contractors working alongside Barbettian citizens to protect the Empire. The military of Barbettia will be trained to defend the Empire of Barbettia from both outer and inner threats. Margrave is the highest position in the Barbettian Guard, and there is only one Margrave. The Margrave controls the entire military and reports directly to the Kings of Barbettia. The Kings of Barbettia can ultimately dictate what the Margrave and Barbettian Guard do. The Barbettian military will be armed with modern weapons and will do their best to defend and protect the Citizens, Kings, and Empire of Barbettia.<br />

=== Literature ===<br />
<br />
Barbettian literature is mostly fictional, and ranges from fantasy to science fiction, and from dystopian novels to general action/adventure novels. One type of book that makes Barbettia unique is a collaborative fiction book. This would be where one author writes a chapter, and another writes the next chapter, and so on. Another unique characteristic of Barbettia's literature would be extensive development of settings. The settings in Barbettian books are detailed and planned outside of the book. This is known as [[w:worldbuilding|worldbuilding]]. Detailed pictures and models of Barbettian-created worlds are created to help the authors visualize what's going on in the story and where the characters are. <br />

<br />
<br />
=== National Symbols ===<br />
<br />
National animal: Dog <br />
<br />
National sports: Association Football, Table Tennis, Pong Ball (a Barbettian-created sport). <br />
<br />
National bird: Golden eagle.<br />
<br />
The flag and coat of arms are symbolic, with each symbol and color having a meaning. The fleur de lise represents the abundance of Barbettian agriculture, the bow and arrow represent the strength of the military, the soccer ball depicts one of the national sports, the conifer represents Barbettia's devotion the environment, and the crown represents the power of the government. <br />
<br />
The chess knights on the coat of arms represents the importance of chess in the Empire of Barbettia, and the golden eagle on the coat of arms is the national bird. Below the coat of arms is depicted the national motto. The crown in the coat of arms shows that the monarchs have full control over all of these things.<br />
<br />
== Military ==<br />
<br />
The Barbettian military is formally known as the Barbettian Guard. It is composed mostly of Barbettian citizens. While there are only three members of the Barbettian Guard today, in the future there will be private security contractors working alongside Barbettian citizens to protect the Empire. The military of Barbettia will be trained to defend the Empire of Barbettia from both outer and inner threats. Margrave is the highest position in the Barbettian Guard, and there is only one Margrave. The Margrave controls the entire military and reports directly to the Kings of Barbettia. The Kings of Barbettia can ultimately dictate what the Margrave and Barbettian Guard do. The Barbettian military will be armed with modern weapons and will do their best to defend and protect the Citizens, Kings, and Empire of Barbettia.<br />

== Micronational Chess League ==<br />
The '''Micronational Chess League''', commonly referred to as the '''MCL''', was founded on 28 January 2019 by the [[Empire of Barbettia]]. The purpose of the MCL is to unite micronational chess players and to unite micronations of all kinds to play [[w:chess|chess]] with one another. The MCL organizes its own tournaments, maintains its own individual rating system (based off the [[w:Elo rating system|Elo rating system]]), and facilitates casual and official games between individuals. All MCL games are played on chess.com. There are currently 9 members.<br />
<br />
== Rating System ==<br />
<br />
The MCL has a rating system based off of the [[w:Elo rating system|Elo rating system]]. The formula is this:<br><br />
[[File:Micronational_Chess_League_Rating_Formula.png]]<br><br />
A= Player Rating Before Game<br><br />
B= Opponent Rating Before Game<br><br />
K= K Factor (200 before a player has both played 10 games and lost 3 games. 30 after a player has both played 10 games and lost 3 games.)<br><br />
S= Score (0 for a loss, 0.5 for a draw, and 1 for a win)<br><br />
R= New Rating<br><br />
Ratings begin at 1000. The MCL maintains an absolute rating floor of 100 for all ratings. Thus, no member can have a rating below 100, no matter their performance in MCL events and games.<br />

Barbettia was founded on 15 February 2016, the date that the Original Constitution was ratified. The constitution states that Barbettia was created to "build on and preserve our culture." The Barbettian Kings saw micronationalism as an opportunity to protect and grow Barbettia's existing culture. But before the nation officially came to be, the Barbettian culture existed. A Barbettian language was conceived in 2008. Barbettian was originally developed as a secretive language that was only used by the Kings of Barbettia, but when Barbettia became a nation, it became an official language of the Empire. From 2008 to 2018, the Kings worked to add words, syntax, and grammar to the language. In 2018, Barbettian was put out of functional use and is only used for ceremonial purposes. <br />
<br />
The original constitution was different from the current one in that it created a national currency, the Barbett, which has since been revoked. The Barbett was based on the worth and value of Barbettian assets. This total value was then divided by the number of Barbetts in circulation, assigning a certain worth to each Barbett. Barbetts were minted by the Kings of Barbettia, using hammers and cold minting techniques. They were made of metal. One Barbett was then divided into 100 centavos. <br />
<br />
The Barbett was revoked after the new constitution of 2018 was ratified. The new constitution emphasized a free market with no regulations. The new constitution also did away with the idea of a central Barbettian bank and standardized currency. After the new constitution was ratified, there was simply no need for the Barbett when any other world currency could work in Barbettia. <br />
<br />
In order to spread word of Barbettia's creation, the first Barbettian Arts and Culture Show was held in early 2016. It showcased Barbettian coins, documents, history, symbols, and music to foreigners. <br />

<br />
Passports were created shortly after the foundation of Barbettia in 2016. These passports were made to permit entry to and from the temporary Barbettian territorial claim, enclaved by the United States. However, in 2017 they were revoked for a multitude of reasons. One of the reasons was that Barbettia is looking for a more permanent territory before it begins to enforce immigration laws and border security. <br />
<br />
On 15 February 2018, a new constitution was created. It was signed on 18 February 2018. On 29 August 2018, the citizens of the Empire of Barbettia elected their first president, Adam Trencher. See "Government Structure" for more details on the Barbettian president. As of February 2019, there are 10 citizens in Barbettia.<br />
<br />
== Government structure ==<br />
<br />
Barbettia has a relatively unique form of government called a [[Diarchy]]. A [[Diarchy]] is like a monarchy, except there are two Kings instead of one. The Diarchy must make all decisions together. Should they disagree, the President shall act as either a tiebreak and side completely with one King, or suggest a compromise which both Kings must agree to. The Diarchy is all powerful and is only limited by the Constitution and Laws. A King succeeds his power to his first child or a designated person at death or resignation. A President is elected by popular vote annually. The Diarchy can form new government positions by delegating any of its many powers to another citizen.<br />
<br />
Barbettia is also unique because the Constitution gives the Diarchy nearly absolute power; however, the Kings may then delegate that power to another citizen, thus creating a new position in the government. Nearly all powers in the government are reserved under the Diarchy until the Kings wish to delegate that power to another citizen and create a new ministry or office in the government for that power. <br />
<br />
Tbe Diarchy act as legislature for the Empire. However, legislature is also conducted at the State level. This is done democratically. States may make their own laws provided that they are not in conflict with the ideals set out in the constitution. Barbettian state legislature permits any citizen of a state to propose a law. Every three months, a state voting day is held where all citizens above the age of 14 can vote yes or no to proposed laws. Should 60% or more vote yes, the law is ratified. The executive position in a state is the Duke. The Duke has all non-legislative powers for the state, and answers directly to the Diarchy. The Duke can be replaced by the Kings. <br />
<br />
Barbettia's government also includes territories, which are all parts of Barbettia not claimed under a state. They must follow all Barbettian laws, obey the Constitution, and will be protected by the Barbettian Guard. <br />
<br />
Barbettia's economy is capitalist, and there is currently no legislation or regulation on Barbettia's economy. It is a completely free market that is open to business, trade, and development of all kinds. <br />

== Culture ==<br />
<br />
=== Language ===<br />
<br />
Barbettia has a well-developed culture. Barbettia created its own language, drinks, cuisine, and music. Ceremonial Barbettian music is written in the ceremonial language, Barbettian. The Barbettian language, though once spoken as a regular language, is now reserved for ceremonial purposes. It was originally a secret language, but is now open to all Barbettian citizens. Barbettians speak Esperanto, Portuguese and English for day to day communication. <br />
<br />
<br />
=== Food ===<br />
<br />
One popular dish in Barbettia is Rice samosas (samosas with only rice inside of them, but cooked without the rice first). Rice, beans, and avocados are some popular foods eaten in Barbettia. Barbettian drinks include milk, ginger ale, and clove ale. Clove ale is a drink invented by one of the Barbettian Kings. It is made in a similar way to Ginger Ale, but with the flavor of cloves instead. Barbettians use a variety of spices to make their food taste good. Some Barbettians bake bread and pastries. In the spirit of self-sufficiency, some Barbettians grow their own food and support organic farming. <br />
<br />
[[File:Cake.PNG|150px|thumb|center|A Barbettian favorite: Carrot cake]]<br />
<br />
=== Activities and festivities ===<br />
<br />
Barbettians celebrate Independence Day, on February 15th. On Barbettian Independence Day, Barbettians celebrate their rights such as free speech, and freedom of religion and expression. Barbettian folk songs include "Grine yak doich epa grine yak hoise," and "Tros epa laja mindo ril Barbettian," and "Aboba epa ama." These songs are recited at the Barbettian Arts and Culture Show. The National Anthem of the Empire of Barbettia is "Tros epa laja mindo ril Barbettian." It consists of six verses, and is 80 words long. The anthem has piano sheet music and vocals. <br />
<br />
Common activities in Barbettia are chess, association football, table tennis, and pong ball (a Barbettian-invented sport). Pong Ball is a team sport played on a (preferably indoor) court. There are teams of at least 2 to up to 5 players, and each team has its own goal and goalie. More information can be seen here: [https://www.topendsports.com/sport/new/pong-ball.htm| Pong Ball]. <br />
<br />
[[File:Pongballdiagrams.png|150px|thumb|center|Pong Ball Court]]<br />
<br />
=== Literature ===<br />
<br />
Barbettian literature is mostly fictional, and ranges from fantasy to science fiction, and from dystopian novels to general action/adventure novels. One type of book that makes Barbettia unique is a collaborative fiction book. This would be where one author writes a chapter, and another writes the next chapter, and so on. Another unique characteristic of Barbettia's literature would be extensive development of settings. The settings in Barbettian books are detailed and planned outside of the book. This is known as [[w:worldbuilding|worldbuilding]]. Detailed pictures and models of Barbettian-created worlds are created to help the authors visualize what's going on in the story and where the characters are. <br />
<br />
[[File:Holo.PNG|150px|thumb|center|A model of a Barbettian book's city]]<br />
<br />
<br />
=== National Symbols ===<br />
<br />
National animal: Dog <br />
<br />
National sports: Association Football, Table Tennis, Pong Ball (a Barbettian-created sport). <br />
<br />
National bird: Golden eagle.<br />
<br />
The flag and coat of arms are symbolic, with each symbol and color having a meaning. The fleur de lise represents the abundance of Barbettian agriculture, the bow and arrow represent the strength of the military, the soccer ball depicts one of the national sports, the conifer represents Barbettia's devotion the environment, and the crown represents the power of the government. <br />
<br />
The chess knights on the coat of arms represents the importance of chess in the Empire of Barbettia, and the golden eagle on the coat of arms is the national bird. Below the coat of arms is depicted the national motto. The crown in the coat of arms shows that the monarchs have full control over all of these things.<br />
<br />
== Military ==<br />
<br />
The Barbettian military is formally known as the Barbettian Guard. It is composed mostly of Barbettian citizens. While there are only three members of the Barbettian Guard today, in the future there will be private security contractors working alongside Barbettian citizens to protect the Empire. The military of Barbettia will be trained to defend the Empire of Barbettia from both outer and inner threats. Margrave is the highest position in the Barbettian Guard, and there is only one Margrave. The Margrave controls the entire military and reports directly to the Kings of Barbettia. The Kings of Barbettia can ultimately dictate what the Margrave and Barbettian Guard do. The Barbettian military will be armed with modern weapons and will do their best to defend and protect the Citizens, Kings, and Empire of Barbettia.<br />

== Micronational Chess League ==<br />
The '''Micronational Chess League''', commonly referred to as the '''MCL''', was founded on 28 January 2019 by the [[Empire of Barbettia]]. The purpose of the MCL is to unite micronational chess players and to unite micronations of all kinds to play [[w:chess|chess]] with one another. The MCL organizes its own tournaments, maintains its own individual rating system (based off the [[w:Elo rating system|Elo rating system]]), and facilitates casual and official games between individuals. All MCL games are played on chess.com. There are currently 9 members.<br />
<br />
== Rating System ==<br />
<br />
The MCL has a rating system based off of the [[w:Elo rating system|Elo rating system]]. The formula is this:<br><br />
[[File:Micronational_Chess_League_Rating_Formula.png]]<br><br />
A= Player Rating Before Game<br><br />
B= Opponent Rating Before Game<br><br />
K= K Factor (200 before a player has both played 10 games and lost 3 games. 30 after a player has both played 10 games and lost 3 games.)<br><br />
S= Score (0 for a loss, 0.5 for a draw, and 1 for a win)<br><br />
R= New Rating<br><br />
Ratings begin at 1000. The MCL maintains an absolute rating floor of 100 for all ratings. Thus, no member can have a rating below 100, no matter their performance in MCL events and games.<br />

== In the name of Urielandia ==<br />
<br />
Hi, I am the Prime Minister of Urielandia and Senator of Ionix Empire.<br />
<br />
I recive a message of your petition, I need other channel to have a full conversation, this is my personal twitter: https://twitter.com/JuanMLafaurie<br />
<br />
We are open to negotiation, includes if this conversations are part a new beginint for both Empire, the Emperor Uriel I are not here for the moment, sadly because today is a special day in the republic of colombia. <br />
<br />
I watch your intetentions to add the Urielandia Empire to a intermicronational Organization, here is bad channel to speak better dettails of the thread.<br />
<br />
== No problem. ==<br />
<br />
No problem, don't worry, The Emperor Uriel recived your message and i show your organisation, is ironical because he remember to me the creation of other organisation for micronations, exactly the Earth Defence Forces and Association of Nations.<br />
<br />
The First is an Military Alliance and the Second is a some similarity to United Nation but less burocratic.<br />
<br />
== Inactive template ==<br />
I noticed you placed the inactive tag on the [[Commonwealth of Uskor|Uskor's]] main page, we are not inactive, even if we don't edit here very frequently due to myself being the primary editor of our wiki presence having a day job and volunteering roles outside of Uskor. --[[User:Itsannarchy|Charlotte Katrínsdóttir, High Queen of Uskor]] ([[User talk:Itsannarchy|talk]]) 08:49, 3 February 2019 (UTC)<br />

The purpose of the MCL is to unite micronational chess players and to unite micronations of all kinds to play [[w:chess|chess]] with one another. The MCL organizes its own tournaments, maintains its own individual rating system (based off the [[w:Elo rating system|Elo rating system]]), and facilitates casual and official games between individuals. All MCL games are played on chess.com. There are currently 8 members.<br />
<br />
== Rating System ==<br />
<br />
The MCL has a rating system based off of the [[w:Elo rating system|Elo rating system]]. The formula is this:<br><br />
[[File:Micronational_Chess_League_Rating_Formula.png]]<br><br />
A= Player Rating Before Game<br><br />
B= Opponent Rating Before Game<br><br />
K= K Factor (200 before a player has both played 10 games and lost 3 games. 30 after a player has both played 10 games and lost 3 games.)<br><br />
S= Score (0 for a loss, 0.5 for a draw, and 1 for a win)<br><br />
R= New Rating<br><br />
Ratings begin at 1000. The MCL maintains an absolute rating floor of 100 for all ratings. Thus, no member can have a rating below 100, no matter their performance in MCL events and games.<br />

== Micronational Chess League ==<br />
The '''Micronational Chess League''', commonly referred to as the '''MCL''', was founded on 28 January 2019 by the [[Empire of Barbettia]]. The purpose of the MCL is to unite micronational chess players and to unite micronations of all kinds to play [[w:chess|chess]] with one another. The MCL organizes its own tournaments, maintains its own individual rating system (based off the [[w:Elo rating system|Elo rating system]]), and facilitates casual and official games between individuals. All MCL games are played on chess.com.<br />
<br />
== Rating System ==<br />
<br />
The MCL has a rating system based off of the [[w:Elo rating system|Elo rating system]]. The formula is this:<br><br />
[[File:Micronational_Chess_League_Rating_Formula.png]]<br><br />
A= Player Rating Before Game<br><br />
B= Opponent Rating Before Game<br><br />
K= K Factor (200 before a player has both played 10 games and lost 3 games. 30 after a player has both played 10 games and lost 3 games.)<br><br />
S= Score (0 for a loss, 0.5 for a draw, and 1 for a win)<br><br />
R= New Rating<br><br />
Ratings begin at 1000. The MCL maintains an absolute rating floor of 100 for all ratings. Thus, no member can have a rating below 100, no matter their performance in MCL events and games.<br />

== Introduction ==<br />
<br />
The '''Empire of Barbettia''' (or '''Barbettia''' for short) is a secessionist micronation that was founded on February 15th, 2016. The Empire of Barbettia has a constitution, active government, and developed culture. The Empire of Barbettia is a capitalist state with a free market. Barbettia's culture includes national foods, drinks, literature, and music. The government of Barbettia is unique in that it is a constitutional diarchy, led by two Kings. The Empire of Barbettia is currently enclaved by the [[w:United States|United States of America]].<br />
<br />
== History ==<br />
<br />
Barbettia was founded on 15 February 2016, the date that the Original Constitution was ratified. The constitution states that Barbettia was created to "build on and preserve our culture." The Barbettian Kings saw micronationalism as an opportunity to protect and grow Barbettia's existing culture. But before the nation officially came to be, the Barbettian culture existed. A Barbettian language was conceived in 2008. Barbettian was originally developed as a secretive language that was only used by the Kings of Barbettia, but when Barbettia became a nation, it became an official language of the Empire. From 2008 to 2018, the Kings worked to add words, syntax, and grammar to the language. In 2018, Barbettian was put out of functional use and is only used for ceremonial purposes. <br />
<br />
The original constitution was different from the current one in that it created a national currency, the Barbett, which has since been revoked. The Barbett was based on the worth and value of Barbettian assets. This total value was then divided by the number of Barbetts in circulation, assigning a certain worth to each Barbett. Barbetts were minted by the Kings of Barbettia, using hammers and cold minting techniques. They were made of metal. One Barbett was then divided into 100 centavos. <br />
<br />
The Barbett was revoked after the new constitution of 2018 was ratified. The new constitution emphasized a free market with no regulations. The new constitution also did away with the idea of a central Barbettian bank and standardized currency. After the new constitution was ratified, there was simply no need for the Barbett when any other world currency could work in Barbettia. <br />
<br />
In order to spread word of Barbettia's creation, the first Barbettian Arts and Culture Show was held in early 2016. It showcased Barbettian coins, documents, history, symbols, and music to foreigners. <br />
<br />

<br />
Passports were created shortly after the foundation of Barbettia in 2016. These passports were made to permit entry to and from the temporary Barbettian territorial claim, enclaved by the United States. However, in 2017 they were revoked for a multitude of reasons. One of the reasons was that Barbettia is looking for a more permanent territory before it begins to enforce immigration laws and border security. <br />
<br />
On 15 February 2018, a new constitution was created. It was signed on 18 February, 2018. On 29 August 2018, the citizens of the Empire of Barbettia elected their first president, Adam Trencher. See "Government Structure" for more details on the Barbettian president. As of August 2018, there are 8 citizens in Barbettia.<br />
<br />
== Government structure ==<br />
<br />
Barbettia has a relatively unique form of government called a [[Diarchy]]. A [[Diarchy]] is like a monarchy, except there are two Kings instead of one. The Diarchy must make all decisions together. Should they disagree, the President shall act as either a tiebreak and side completely with one King, or suggest a compromise which both Kings must agree to. The Diarchy is all powerful and is only limited by the Constitution and Laws. A King succeeds his power to his first child or a designated person at death or resignation. A President is elected by popular vote annually. The Diarchy can form new government positions by delegating any of its many powers to another citizen.<br />
<br />
Barbettia is also unique because the Constitution gives the Diarchy nearly absolute power; however, the Kings may then delegate that power to another citizen, thus creating a new position in the government. Nearly all powers in the government are reserved under the Diarchy until the Kings wish to delegate that power to another citizen and create a new ministry or office in the government for that power. <br />
<br />
Tbe Diarchy act as legislature for the Empire. However, legislature is also conducted at the State level. This is done democratically. States may make their own laws provided that they are not in conflict with the ideals set out in the constitution. Barbettian state legislature permits any citizen of a state to propose a law. Every three months, a state voting day is held where all citizens above the age of 14 can vote yes or no to proposed laws. Should 60% or more vote yes, the law is ratified. The executive position in a state is the Duke. The Duke has all non-legislative powers for the state, and answers directly to the Diarchy. The Duke can be replaced by the Kings. <br />
<br />
Barbettia's government also includes territories, which are all parts of Barbettia not claimed under a state. They must follow all Barbettian laws, obey the Constitution, and will be protected by the Barbettian Guard. <br />
<br />
Barbettia's economy is capitalist, and there is currently no legislation or regulation on Barbettia's economy. It is a completely free market that is open to business, trade, and development of all kinds. <br />

Literature:<br />
<br />
Barbettian literature is mostly fictional, and ranges from fantasy to science fiction, and from dystopian novels to general action/adventure novels. One type of book that makes Barbettia unique is a collaborative fiction book. This would be where one author writes a chapter, and another writes the next chapter, and so on. Another unique characteristic of Barbettia's literature would be extensive development of settings. The settings in Barbettian books are detailed and planned outside of the book. This is known as [[w:worldbuilding|worldbuilding]]. Detailed pictures and models of Barbettian-created worlds are created to help the authors visualize what's going on in the story and where the characters are. <br />

== Introduction ==<br />
<br />
The '''Empire of Barbettia''' (or '''Barbettia''' for short) is a secessionist micronation that was founded on February 15th, 2016. The Empire of Barbettia has a constitution, active government, and developed culture. The Empire of Barbettia is a capitalist state with a free market. Barbettia's culture includes national foods, drinks, literature, and music. The government of Barbettia is unique in that it is a constitutional diarchy, led by two Kings. The Empire of Barbettia is currently enclaved by the [[w:United States|United States of America]].<br />
<br />
== History ==<br />
<br />
Barbettia was founded on 15 February 2016, the date that the Original Constitution was ratified. The constitution states that Barbettia was created to "build on and preserve our culture." The Barbettian Kings saw micronationalism as an opportunity to protect and grow Barbettia's existing culture. But before the nation officially came to be, the Barbettian culture existed. A Barbettian language was conceived in 2008. Barbettian was originally developed as a secretive language that was only used by the Kings of Barbettia, but when Barbettia became a nation, it became an official language of the Empire. From 2008 to 2018, the Kings worked to add words, syntax, and grammar to the language. In 2018, Barbettian was put out of functional use and is only used for ceremonial purposes. <br />
<br />
The original constitution was different from the current one in that it created a national currency, the Barbett, which has since been revoked. The Barbett was based on the worth and value of Barbettian assets. This total value was then divided by the number of Barbetts in circulation, assigning a certain worth to each Barbett. Barbetts were minted by the Kings of Barbettia, using hammers and cold minting techniques. They were made of metal. One Barbett was then divided into 100 centavos. <br />
<br />
The Barbett was revoked after the new constitution of 2018 was ratified. The new constitution emphasized a free market with no regulations. The new constitution also did away with the idea of a central Barbettian bank and standardized currency. After the new constitution was ratified, there was simply no need for the Barbett when any other world currency could work in Barbettia. <br />
<br />
In order to spread word of Barbettia's creation, the first Barbettian Arts and Culture Show was held in early 2016. It showcased Barbettian coins, documents, history, symbols, and music to foreigners. <br />
<br />

[[File:Barbettianshow.PNG|150px|thumb|right|A whiteboard with Barbettian facts for foreigners]]<br />
<br />
Passports were created shortly after the foundation of Barbettia in 2016. These passports were made to permit entry to and from the temporary Barbettian territorial claim, enclaved by the United States. However, in 2017 they were revoked for a multitude of reasons. One of the reasons was that Barbettia is looking for a more permanent territory before it begins to enforce immigration laws and border security. <br />
<br />
On 15 February 2018, a new constitution was created. It was signed on 18 February, 2018. On 29 August 2018, the citizens of the Empire of Barbettia elected their first president, Adam Trencher. See "Government Structure" for more details on the Barbettian president. As of August 2018, there are 8 citizens in Barbettia.<br />
<br />
== Government structure ==<br />
<br />
Barbettia has a relatively unique form of government called a [[Diarchy]]. A [[Diarchy]] is like a monarchy, except there are two Kings instead of one. The Diarchy must make all decisions together. Should they disagree, the President shall act as either a tiebreak and side completely with one King, or suggest a compromise which both Kings must agree to. The Diarchy is all powerful and is only limited by the Constitution and Laws. A King succeeds his power to his first child or a designated person at death or resignation. A President is elected by popular vote annually. The Diarchy can form new government positions by delegating any of its many powers to another citizen.<br />
<br />
Barbettia is also unique because the Constitution gives the Diarchy nearly absolute power; however, the Kings may then delegate that power to another citizen, thus creating a new position in the government. Nearly all powers in the government are reserved under the Diarchy until the Kings wish to delegate that power to another citizen and create a new ministry or office in the government for that power. <br />
<br />
Tbe Diarchy act as legislature for the Empire. However, legislature is also conducted at the State level. This is done democratically. States may make their own laws provided that they are not in conflict with the ideals set out in the constitution. Barbettian state legislature permits any citizen of a state to propose a law. Every three months, a state voting day is held where all citizens above the age of 14 can vote yes or no to proposed laws. Should 60% or more vote yes, the law is ratified. The executive position in a state is the Duke. The Duke has all non-legislative powers for the state, and answers directly to the Diarchy. The Duke can be replaced by the Kings. <br />
<br />
Barbettia's government also includes territories, which are all parts of Barbettia not claimed under a state. They must follow all Barbettian laws, obey the Constitution, and will be protected by the Barbettian Guard. <br />
<br />
Barbettia's economy is capitalist, and there is currently no legislation or regulation on Barbettia's economy. It is a completely free market that is open to business, trade, and development of all kinds. <br />

There are teams of at least 2 to up to 5 players, and each team has its own goal and goalie. More information can be seen here: [https://www.topendsports.com/sport/new/pong-ball.htm| Pong Ball]. <br />

<br />
Literature:<br />
<br />
Barbettian literature is mostly fictional, and ranges from fantasy to science fiction, and from dystopian novels to general action/adventure novels. One type of book that makes Barbettia unique is a collaborative fiction book. This would be where one author writes a chapter, and another writes the next chapter, and so on. Another unique characteristic of Barbettia's literature would be extensive development of settings. The settings in Barbettian books are detailed and planned outside of the book. This is known as [[w:worldbuilding|worldbuilding]]. Detailed pictures and models of Barbettian-created worlds are created to help the authors visualize what's going on in the story and where the characters are. <br />

Margrave is the highest position in the Barbettian Guard, and there is only one Margrave. The Margrave controls the entire military and reports directly to the Kings of Barbettia. The Kings of Barbettia can ultimately dictate what the Margrave and Barbettian Guard do.

== Introduction ==<br />
<br />
The '''Empire of Barbettia''' (or '''Barbettia''' for short) is a secessionist micronation that was founded on February 15th, 2016. The Empire of Barbettia has a constitution, active government, and developed culture. The Empire of Barbettia is a capitalist state with a free market. Barbettia's culture includes national foods, drinks, literature, and music. The government of Barbettia is unique in that it is a constitutional diarchy, led by two Kings. The Empire of Barbettia is currently enclaved by the [[w:United States|United States of America]].<br />
<br />
== History ==<br />
<br />
Barbettia was founded on 15 February 2016, the date that the Original Constitution was ratified. The constitution states that Barbettia was created to "build on and preserve our culture." The Barbettian Kings saw micronationalism as an opportunity to protect and grow Barbettia's existing culture. But before the nation officially came to be, the Barbettian culture existed. A Barbettian language was conceived in 2008. Barbettian was originally developed as a secretive language that was only used by the Kings of Barbettia, but when Barbettia became a nation, it became an official language of the Empire. From 2008 to 2018, the Kings worked to add words, syntax, and grammar to the language. In 2018, Barbettian was put out of functional use and is only used for ceremonial purposes. <br />
<br />
The original constitution was different from the current one in that it created a national currency, the Barbett, which has since been revoked. The Barbett was based on the worth and value of Barbettian assets. This total value was then divided by the number of Barbetts in circulation, assigning a certain worth to each Barbett. Barbetts were minted by the Kings of Barbettia, using hammers and cold minting techniques. They were made of metal. One Barbett was then divided into 100 centavos. <br />
<br />
The Barbett was revoked after the new constitution of 2018 was ratified. The new constitution emphasized a free market with no regulations. The new constitution also did away with the idea of a central Barbettian bank and standardized currency. After the new constitution was ratified, there was simply no need for the Barbett when any other world currency could work in Barbettia. <br />
<br />
In order to spread word of Barbettia's creation, the first Barbettian Arts and Culture Show was held in early 2016. It showcased Barbettian coins, documents, history, symbols, and music to foreigners. <br />
<br />
[[File:Barbettianpresentation.PNG|150px|thumb|center|A Barbettian Presentation during the Culture Show]] <br />
[[File:Barbettianshow.PNG|150px|thumb|right|A whiteboard with Barbettian facts for foreigners]]<br />
<br />
Passports were created shortly after the foundation of Barbettia in 2016. These passports were made to permit entry to and from the temporary Barbettian territorial claim, enclaved by the United States. However, in 2017 they were revoked for a multitude of reasons. One of the reasons was that Barbettia is looking for a more permanent territory before it begins to enforce immigration laws and border security. <br />
<br />
On 15 February 2018, a new constitution was created. It was signed on 18 February, 2018. On 29 August 2018, the citizens of the Empire of Barbettia elected their first president, Adam Trencher. See "Government Structure" for more details on the Barbettian president. As of August 2018, there are 8 citizens in Barbettia.<br />
<br />
== Government Structure ==<br />
<br />
Barbettia has a relatively unique form of government called a [[Diarchy]]. A [[Diarchy]] is like a monarchy, except there are two Kings instead of one. The Diarchy must make all decisions together. Should they disagree, the President shall act as either a tiebreak and side completely with one King, or suggest a compromise which both Kings must agree to. The Diarchy is all powerful and is only limited by the Constitution and Laws. A King succeeds his power to his first child or a designated person at death or resignation. A President is elected by popular vote annually. The Diarchy can form new government positions by delegating any of its many powers to another citizen.<br />
<br />
Barbettia is also unique because the Constitution gives the Diarchy nearly absolute power; however, the Kings may then delegate that power to another citizen, thus creating a new position in the government. Nearly all powers in the government are reserved under the Diarchy until the Kings wish to delegate that power to another citizen and create a new ministry or office in the government for that power. <br />
<br />
Tbe Diarchy act as legislature for the Empire. However, legislature is also conducted at the State level. This is done democratically. States may make their own laws provided that they are not in conflict with the ideals set out in the constitution. Barbettian state legislature permits any citizen of a state to propose a law. Every three months, a state voting day is held where all citizens above the age of 14 can vote yes or no to proposed laws. Should 60% or more vote yes, the law is ratified. The executive position in a state is the Duke. The Duke has all non-legislative powers for the state, and answers directly to the Diarchy. The Duke can be replaced by the Kings. <br />
<br />
Barbettia's government also includes territories, which are all parts of Barbettia not claimed under a state. They must follow all Barbettian laws, obey the Constitution, and will be protected by the Barbettian Guard. <br />
<br />
Barbettia's economy is capitalist, and there is currently no legislation or regulation on Barbettia's economy. It is a completely free market that is open to business, trade, and development of all kinds. <br />

== Culture ==<br />
<br />
'''Language:'''<br />
<br />
Barbettia has a well-developed culture. Barbettia created its own language, drinks, cuisine, and music. Ceremonial Barbettian music is written in the ceremonial language, Barbettian. The Barbettian language, though once spoken as a regular language, is now reserved for ceremonial purposes. It was originally a secret language, but is now open to all Barbettian citizens. Barbettians speak Esperanto, Portuguese and English for day to day communication. <br />
<br />
'''Food:'''<br />
<br />
One popular dish in Barbettia is Rice samosas (samosas with only rice inside of them, but cooked without the rice first). Rice, beans, and avocados are some popular foods eaten in Barbettia. Barbettian drinks include milk, ginger ale, and clove ale. Clove ale is a drink invented by one of the Barbettian Kings. It is made in a similar way to Ginger Ale, but with the flavor of cloves instead. Barbettians use a variety of spices to make their food taste good. Some Barbettians bake bread and pastries. In the spirit of self-sufficiency, some Barbettians grow their own food and support organic farming. <br />
<br />

<br />
'''Activities and Festivities:'''<br />
<br />
Barbettians celebrate Independence Day, on February 15th. On Barbettian Independence Day, Barbettians celebrate their rights such as free speech, and freedom of religion and expression. Barbettian folk songs include "Grine yak doich epa grine yak hoise," and "Tros epa laja mindo ril," and "Aboba epa ama." These songs are recited at the Barbettian Arts and Culture Show. The National Anthem of the Empire of Barbettia is "Tros epa laja mindo ril." It consists of six verses, and is 80 words long. The anthem has piano sheet music and vocals. <br />
<br />
Common activities in Barbettia are chess, association football, table tennis, and pong ball (a Barbettian-invented sport). Pong Ball is a team sport played on a (preferably indoor) court. There are teams of at least 2 to up to 5 players, and each team has its own goal and goalie.

The first is that You already showed that You don't take care of formal agreements (see what happened with UM), and second (and most important) You should read the rules of MicroWiki. Everyone is free to edit every article. You don't have the property of Your article, as how i don't have of Hashima, Whestcorea doesn't have of his and everyone other too. Everyone is free to contribute to every article of this website. Of course, contribute following the rules of MicroWiki (exactly what you didn't, because you started several edit warring and several vandalism, reporting fake news and publishing accuses to several users, without evidences. Oh, i was almost forgetting, you also showed me your infinite education, insulting me on Twitter through your personal account, in matter about to property of your article). Rules that seems You completely don't know. I'm sorry, but i will continue to follow the rules, and i will continue to edit, in constructive way, every article that i can improve with my personal knowledge. Publishing this "agreement" you just showed definitely that you don't want to follow the rules of MicroWiki, because you have already been warned about this thing by another admin (i don't remember his name now).

== Series of unconstructive edits ==<br />
<br />
Hello Mr.Jonathan,<br />
<br />
I'm contacting you in regards to the ''[[religion in micronationalism]]'' article. After you protected the religion template, that of which I am glad for, it appears that Markus II of [[New Israel]] has decided to go further by inserting counter-productive edits into the said article.<br />
<br />
He has not only added dubious information, but he has even made the monotheistic category broader than it already is. This person refuses to have other non-Christian yet Abrahamic/Semitic religions featured by the [[Apostolic Church of New Israel]], all due to his personal bias. This has been counted as bias because Abrahamic religions are defined as monotheistic religions of West Asian origin, emphasizing and tracing their common origin to Abraham (or recognizing a spiritual tradition identified with him).<br />
<br />
The input about several states choosing an established religion is unnecessary as well. That information was already provided in the third paragraph which states: "''In the micronational community, several individuals have formed their own religions. Most religions created in the micronational community are developed as serious attempts at alternative religions. Several are created in protest to already existing ones while some are developed as hobbies, or, in a similar way that a micronation is devoted to (developed merely for the sake of developing).''"<br />
<br />
It seems that he even dislikes the fact that definitions are placed in the monotheistic and polytheistic sections, especially when the definition of Abrahamic religions was added.<br />
<br />
I would like to request that you look into this situation, as for [[MicroWiki]] ought to be a source of truth, and not of personal, radical and/or prejudice religious bias.<br />
<br />
By the way, to further validate this conflict, we must refer to his talk page when he stated: "And, indeed, only Judaism and Christianity are recognized as having any legitimacy in my eyes and the eyes of the New Israeli church." This leads to the condemnation of bias as well, as for he only considers anything Judeo-Christian, or at least Orthodox or Catholic as being worthy forms of monotheism (or, Abrahamic traditions).<br />

Dear Jonathan,<br />
<br />
I'd like to request consideration of the Invalian Express to be considered for the Current Headlines section Here is a link to the news site and my microwiki page https://invalianexpress.wordpress.com/?nomuse=1 http://mw.micronation.org/wiki/Principality_of_the_Kingdom_of_Inival<br />

<br />
:I'm not Jonathan, but I am an admin, and I'm going to have to say no to the Express at this time.

== News Deleted ==<br />
<br />
Hi, last night I posted under 'Other News' that the "Organization for Legitimacy Seeking Micro-States" was created to help micronations seeking recognition of sovereignty on the world stage. I also linked that line to the organization's new website. Today, I came by MicroWiki only to find that had been deleted. It was not posted under the area for approved publications only, nor did it contain any vulgarity or falsehoods. Can you please tell me why it was deleted?<br />
:Another user removed it, with "Advertising a website is not the same thing as a news article" given as his reason. To be fair, I'd say he's right; it wasn't a link to a news article, but to a website. It may be a better idea for you to post this on the forums.

Hey Jonathan, it's Suzuki again. I'm trying to figure out how to have my article, the [[Democratia of New Starland]], have three more redirect links when you type '''DNS''', '''Raoul Commune''' or '''New Starland''' in the search bar. I couldn't find that function within the article's computer readout stuff in the edit page, nor in any of the available tool bars ("Page Information" tool looked like the one, but I couldn't figure out how to edit it). Where is this information kept, and how can I go about editing it?<br />

== Questions regarding the overhauling of an article ==<br />
<br />
So, I've decided to completely overhaul the [[Starland Republic and New Pamlico]] wiki article, which I originally authored about 3 or 4 years ago. I'm attempting to get it in a state that it can become a contender for Good Article status, much like the [[Democratia of New Starland|DNS]] article. I have a few questions and requests regarding this revamping, the first of which is the naming of the article. The defunct micronation's name is officially the Starland Republic and New Pamlico, but after the founding of New Starland last year we've simply referred to the precursor as DSL-Starland. So, should the article be renamed DSL-Starland or should it maintain the name Starland Republic and New Pamlico? Also, since the article was created by me years ago, under a different (and lost) account, how can I go about reclaiming ownership of that article? Lastly, DSL-Starland was officially succeeded by the [[San Dover Kingdom|San Dover Queendom]], but I honestly consider this more of a spin-off of DSL-Starland than a separate entity, and have thus decided to include it's two week history somewhere in the revamped SR&NP article. Thus, I request a deletion of that article, since it will no longer be needed after the overhaul is finished. [[User:DNSgov|DNSgov]] ([[User talk:DNSgov|talk]]) 22:21, 23 July 2016 (BST)<br />
<br />
: Going along with the reasoning behind deleting the San Dover Queendom article and transferring its information in the revitalized SR&NP article, I've decided to do the same edits to the [[New Pamlico Federation]] article. This is because that micronation, although technically founded independently of DSL-Starland, is so intertwined with the Starland legacy that it would actually be more out of place with its own article than San Dover would. [[User:DNSgov|DNSgov]] ([[User talk:DNSgov|talk]]) 01:29, 24 July 2016 (BST)<br />
::For a historical micronation, you should call the article whatever its subject matter is most frequently referred to, so in this case DSL-Starland would be fine (although mention at the top of the article what the official name was). No articles are "owned" by anyone, so there's no issue in regards to your new account. Add a Deletion template to any article you no longer need once its information has been included elsewhere.

Since MicroWiki moved from its original website into this, I do think that the logo should be updated too.<br><br />
I took the permiss to draw one by myself, what I think could be a nice one, made by a mix of the most famous world's Micronations (from Austenasia to Westarctica, Hutt River, Sealand, Christiania, Seborga, etc...), with the shape of a world globe.<br><br />
Please find it attached to this my humble message.<br><br />
I hope to hear from You about my proposal, and i hope that You will like my idea.<br><br />

The two main things I would fix, though, are 1) add photographs - there's not a single one, not even of your land claims - and 2) provide information about how Pavlov is mostly known for its far-right views and flat earth theory.

But, get back to me if you wish for our micronation's have a bilateral relationship. Secondly, I am no longer in [[Republic of Drew Star Line|DSL]].

== Conflict Resolution ==<br />
<br />
Hello again, Emperor Jonathan. I am annoying you for the third time this week (has it been a week?), to ask your help in resolving a small wiki editing conflict that has come about. [[User:E.C Occitanie|E.C Occitanie]] has officially banned me from his country, as can be found in the article: [[List of people banned from entering Occitania]]. My problem is not with this fact (I could care less), but instead with this section right here:<br />
<br />
<small>so called</small> [[File:Sunþrawegaz Flag.png|25px]] [[Sunþrawegaz Kuningadōmas|Sunþrawegaz]]<br />
<br />
The part that gets me is the "so called" aspect of the term. I have removed this small part twice now, only to have it reverted by the Occitanian user. Which is why I'm asking for your advice on how to resolve this conflict. My reasoning behind having "so called" removed has been stated in both of my edits, and is as follows:<br />
<br />
"The micronation of Sunþrawegaz does not contain the words "so" and "called" within its official or common name, nor do those terms come about through proper translation from Proto-Germanic."<br />
<br />
It should be noted that I have been banned from entering [[Popular Union of Occitania|Occitania]] for claiming the Kerguelen Islands, for which this micronation believes is sovereign French territory that is not to be trespassed upon, and has labeled me as an apparently careless imbecile who is more concerned with territorial expansion then ecological preservation. I am assuming that this gentleman is not very familiar with how many micronational land claims overstep the boundaries of macronational interests. Either way, I would like to see the removal of "so called" from the aforementioned page, as I feel that it is besmirching to not just myself and [[Sunþrawegaz Kuningadōmas|Sunþrawegaz]], but to micronationalism as a whole. I do not feel that me and my project are any more or less "so called" then any other micronation in the community, including Occitania, and I believe anybody else here would agree with that sentiment. <br />

:For consistency, I would also like to point out recent edits to the aforementioned page that have been made since my complain was lobbied to you. The first is the claim that I have made "massive editions on Occitanian pages in [[MicroWiki]]." This is entirely false, unless two edits on the same page worth 25 bites of information that apply to only two words are to be considered "massive." I'm pointing this out not because I believe the statement should be retracted, but because I believe it was done to delegitimize my argument for having "so called" removed from the same page. <br />
<br />
:The second point involves the usage of the term "so called." [[User:E.C Occitanie|E.C Occitanie]] claims that its usage, which was again added after this conflict resolution request was filed, as such:<br />
<br />
:''So called'' means that this micronation is [[Foreign relations of Occitania|not recognized]] by the Occitanian administration. This term is use as diplomatic decorum. <br />
<br />
:I believe first and foremost that the very fact [[Sunþrawegaz Kuningadōmas|Sunþrawegaz]] is even on this list proves that [[Popular Union of Occitania|Occitania]] does not recognize my micronation, so the point is moot. Secondly, that information can be found on the page [[Foreign relations of Occitania]], under section 3.4. This attempt at making a "point" is nothing more than an attempt to legitimize a term I believe is entirely uncalled for. If any more similar edits are made, I will make you aware of them as they progress until this conflict is resolved.<br />

Again, I hate bothering you with this somewhat trivial stuff, but believe you me, this guy has been hounding me about Sunþrawegaz since Saturday, and if I am to get anything out of my less-then-enjoyable dealings with this user, I would like to at least maintain some of Sunþrawegōz integrity.

The agree-able formatting, which I have told the Occitanian President I have no qualms with, involved the usage of a color-coded table to show that Occitania does not recognize Sunþrawegaz, a true and unbiased fact. However, within hours of this revision, this formatting was abandoned in favor of claiming that I am an American citizen. This is false, as I denounced my citizenry in July 2015 in a display of my commitment to the [[Republic of Drew Star Line|Raoul Commune]], a fact that can be confirmed by several members of this community, including the leaders of Aarbaro and Zenrax. Although I still currently reside in the United States, and I doubt the US authorities believe I am a foreign national, I have yet to publicly reclaim my American citizenship. As such, the only nation I am a citizen of is Sunþrawegaz, and this article must reflect that.<br />
<br />
:::::I have twice now reverted it back to the agreed-upon formatting, only to have Mahuset change it wrongly back to the statistic that I am an American and not a Sunþrawegoz. According to Mahuset, the reason behind showcasing me as an American citizen on the list is because the article is from the perspective of the Occitanian government. I was under the impression that the MicroWiki should always display unbiased information, and not from the single perspective from any one micronation, and I voiced my belief in that in both of my reverts. <br />

Thirdly, you don't know how this began and you don't know why I've been banned from Occitania. They can ban me from entering their micronation for whatever reason they see fit, but the truth of the matter is they have a problem with Sunþrawegaz claiming the Kerguelen Islands, and I have flat our refused to drop those claims. If anybody has actually been harassed, it has been me and Emperor Thomas, as both of us have had to deal with the full brunt of attacks on something as trivial as claiming land, something all micronations do, and something only a few are able to control in the first place.<br />

No, I will stop until this "edit war" until me and Sunþrawegaz are properly represented in an unbiased manner on this site.

== RE: ""Split"" ==<br />
<br />
To clarify -<br />
<br />
Yes, we are much smaller than the GUM Community, which has around sixty or seventy people. At present, The Monarchist Republic has eighteen people, and the MAFE has eleven. However, that is by no means 'just me'. I understand that you probably feel we are being ridiculous, affording ourself undeserved status, insulting the values of the old community, and behaving childishly, but that is no reason to lower yourself to insulting us and deleting our pages. I understand that you do not recognise it and that many people do not, but this is not a reason to delete the pages. Describing them as "[p]atent nonsense... pages that contain no meaningful content" is just rude and not a proper application of the policy.<br />
<br />
I understand that you don't think we have managed to achieve anything here. However, for us, one active chatroom with nearly twenty members and an ongoing recruitment process on the forums is better than we hoped for. If you do not want to recognise it as a major event, go ahead. But you have no reasonable grounds for deleting the pages or for showing the lack of respect you have done in your messages. I'm happy to level with you and admit that yes, we're a small community. But the accusation that "we both know it's just you" is arrogant and rude at a level that definitely outstrips trying to create MicroWiki pages on the subject that even acknowledge some people's questioning of its legitimacy.<br />
<br />
Therefore, consider me to be contesting this deletion, and more personally asking for you to discuss this with me like a sensible diplomat.<br />
<br />

<br />
: Here's my opinion on the whole thing: Up until yesterday, I heard absolutely nothing about a so-called "community split." I'm neither a part of the GUM, nor a part of the Old Guard, and yet I use the MicroWiki forums. As far as I know, almost everyone there does. Yes, you might be considered another '''part''' of the community, and you might actually be successful in recruiting members from the forums to your cause. But until this new sect gains its own actual identity and is able to pull from literally just one source for its member base, I think it would be still considered as still very much a part of the larger MicroWiki community in general. I don't see any signs of this "split" manifesting itself on the prominent Skype chats. <br />
<br />
<br />
: I don't see much of anything of that nature happening on the Forums. I'm literally about as much of an "Establishment Outsider" as it gets -- Zenrax hardly shares its citizens with others, for one. Now, if we start seeing an actual split of the community like what happened before my time with this whole Wikia / Wiki business, then I'll eat my words and say "You know what, this guy has a really good point." For now though, it might be best to promote your ideals from within the community as it exists, to change it for the better. Trying to get people to funnel themselves into an artificial "in or out" scenario will only come back to haunt people.<br />

<br />
:: Just to clarify regarding the Skype chats, that's actually the main area this has taken place - i.e. the centre of our group is a seperate Skype chatroom and we, at least most of us, left other groups like the RF. The only micronational chatrooms I am in now relate to the new community or individual micronations, and I know the same is true for several other people.<br />
<br />
:: We don't have our own wiki, partially due to financial constrainsts and partially because we never wanted to leave MicroWiki itself. We always wanted to be a parallel aspect of the MicroWiki community and function as parrallel to the traditional set of Skype chatrooms. Johnathan has decided that this is a figment of my imagination and does not want to recognise it. Truth be told, yes I am the only one focussing on creating wiki articles for it, but that's at least in part because other people predicted we would have them deleted. I just want John to let me create the pages and fill them with realistic information, which he can of course check himself to see if it reflects reality, and then be on my way. I was optimistic enough never to expect this discussion to take place, and I would just like to create factual wiki pages on the existence of our smaller sub-community, the circumstances by which we came about and the criticisms we face. <br />

<br />
:::: The MicroWiki community is, by definition, those who use the MicroWiki. And so, while you can claim as much as you'd like that there has been a "split" in the community, a separate Skype chatroom doesn't define that. I've heard of a few of your members and to my knowledge at least several of them are still very involved in the goings-on in the community's core chatrooms. This, in essence, is what Jonathan is saying - there has been no split, and this "New Community" you speak of is - at best - another sector of the MicroWiki community. At worst, I suppose, you could say all it is would be a Skype chatroom.<br />
<br />
::::The main points for your "split" aside (a territory I could speak further about, perhaps another time), I do see the point Jonathan has made. And I'd say it's fair, more so now that you've specifically agreed with it by saying that you "always wanted to be a parallel aspect of the MicroWiki community." And let me make one last side-step to say that [https://theglastieven.wordpress.com/2017/08/27/johnathan-austen-refuses-to-allow-wiki-article-on-the-new-community-claiming-that-it-does-not-exist/ making this here news article is in no way going to help convince the MicroWiki site owner of your case].

<br />
:::::I'm going to put my two cents in here. I am the infamous Suzuki, and I can tell you straight up that I'm probably one of the most hated members of the MicroWiki community. However, despite the loathing, I still love and respect this community. Why? Because this place doesn't have a "leader." Sure, Emperor Jonathan owns the domain. But he is so lenient on things. I've been a member of this community on and off since 2012 (before Jonathan even became the owner of this site), as well as being a very inactive member of three more micronational communities. And I can tell you that only in this community will you find the owner not try to influence the micronations that flock to their domain. Jonathan is the most fair community leader, and the most unassuming. I feel that your "New Community" is both trying to harm this man's image (which I can tell you from experience is very much an impossibility), as well as an attempt by yourself to influence other micronations, which I abhorrently despise. [[User:Suzuki|Suzuki]] ([[User talk:Suzuki|talk]]) 22:32, 28 August 2017 (UTC)<br />
<br />
::::::I'm back for more! Just a couple of points I want to make on this "New Community." Firstly, if it's just a Skype chatroom, you can't really call it a community. I run the Skype group Drunkiz Gadurō and it has representatives from 15 micronations there. Can I call the Drunkiz Gadurō a community? No, not really, at least it's no more or less a community than other micronationalist Skype groups out there, like Yellow Bear and the Flagon. Every true community I've been apart of, from the two incarnations of the MicroWiki (I've been around since before the switch in 2013), to the Wikia, to "Mr. Twain's Neighborhood" (which I think I'm the last active user on), and they all have an actual website, an organized forum, and two of them have a wikipedia-styled main site that contain various articles on various aspects of various micronations. Until the "New Community" has that, I don't think you can call yourself a micronational community of any kind.<br />
<br />
::::::My second point is this: the only successful split in this community that I am aware of, and Emperor Thomas of Zenrax alluded to, is the MicroWikia (which again, I'm also a user on). Nowhere on that site have I seen an outpouring of information on the Wiki-Wikia split, which you also won't find here either. The only reason I'm even aware of it is because I knew a user (Jackson Alexander) who was there when it happened. And as information on that split is lacking, I can assume that it wasn't article worthy, meaning that the split was never the end-all-be-all of the MicroWiki or the MicroWikia's history. Also, many people are users on both the Wiki and the Wikia, including Emperor Jonathan, who is an admin on the Wikia! Anyways, my point here is that community splits happen; they've happened before, and the'll happened again. But none of the previous splits have ever been article worthy, and unless a legit war breaks out over a split, it will continue to never happen.<br />
<br />
::::::Just a side comment that I though of whilst typing: if you're so against this community, then why do you continue to use this community's wiki and forums?<br />
<br />
::::::Well, that's my schpeal. I apologize to Jonathan for taking up yet more space on his Talk page for this. [[User:Suzuki|Suzuki]] ([[User talk:Suzuki|talk]]) 06:14, 29 August 2017 (UTC)<br />

Hey -<br />
<br />
With a due sense of exhaustion and dread, could I ask what policy other than "I'm in charge and I don't like you" gives you permisssion to remove both of my news articles from the main page, including the one unrelated to the edit summary you gave regarding the reversion? Come on here John, you're just proving me and the other people who won't take you seriously right. I'd love to be able to go back to my micronation and write a news article announcing that I was all wrong and you're perfectly reasonable and easy to work with, but when you exchange merely disagreeing with me for taking childish swipes, it gets really difficult to be unconvinced of the notion that you're abusing your power and are taking this all personally (and are therefore not likely to be open to compromise or even reasoned disvussion). Come on, I've asked once before, although you didn't respond. Are you there, John? Can we discuss this politely and reach a situation where we're both able to work with each other and where we're on the same page about the New Community?<br />

::::::This categorically isn't a non-biased wiki, John has himself stated that.

:::::::This shouldn't have to be said, but it's apparent that it has to be. MicroWiki is '''not''' a democracy. The MicroWiki costs £160 per year from Jonathan's own pocket, and its ridiculous for you to think you can use the site that he pays for to promote "breaking away" from the community. Jonathan is lax on most things, but I don't expect him to allow you to attempt to tear the community in two using the site that he pays for, and quite frankly you shouldn't expect that either. And let me second what Jonathan said earlier in this thread: this is not just him. He has consulted the admins, myself included, and we have all come to this conclusion. Moreover, I should point out how childish it is of you to go ahead and make the [[New Community]] page again, against the orders of the administration. In fact, that's pretty much against the rules in itself. The point here, all in all, is that you shouldn't get to use the MicroWiki to promote breaking away from the MicroWiki.

First, Mark has gone into great detail regarding his reasons for founding the New Community in this document: https://docs.google.com/document/d/13YsSTWjizW4YEmTmzXCk2buYXvrLiSJGXkDrEei18SM/edit?usp=sharing. Second, a combination of 'condemnation, indifference, or humour' can hardly be described as 'near-unanimous' since unanimity requires all parties to share '''one''' stance and three have clearly been shown. Third, Mark is not the only member, there are currently around 20 members, maybe more if you count affiliated citizens of nations such as Nedland, Glastieve or Masuhet. Fourth, I would appreciate you not accusing Glastieve of 'self-aggrandizement' through the New Community as members of both communities are individuals not countries and this was an entirely independent venture.<br />

== Page Deletion ==<br />
<br />
:I would like to again request, personally as content creator and officially on behalf of the confederal government, that all of the pages related to Delvera and its predecessors which I marked for deletion about 20 days ago be removed from the wiki. Thank you. [[User:Sarky|Sarky]] ([[User talk:Sarky|talk]]) 20:57, 28 September 2017 (UTC)<br />
<br />
::My original deletions were based off the articles I could find, primarily from your Navbox and categories. Those articles were not in the resources I could find, and I remember specifically asking that we be notified if there are more articles that I missed, and that would've been much preferred than to quietly add deletion templates. My apologies for not seeing the additions, it should be taken care of now. {{Template:Twain Signature}} 4:42 29 September 2017 (UTC)<br />
<br />
:::Thank you for complying with the request, though for the record I would like to point out that some of the articles in question were in the navbox and nearly all of them were in the Grand Republic of Delvera category. Further, I specifically mentioned that I marked our remaining articles for deletion on the talk page of the main Delvera page before it was deleted, thus they were included in my original request of September 9. I never received a message asking if any other articles needed removal, but Consul Callahan did and recalls replying that there were indeed more articles. <br />
<br />
:::On another note, the reason I "quietly" marked the articles is that I did not want to cause any further outrage or accompanying censorship and in fact believed that I was following proper wiki procedure as per the deletion policy. I am left to wonder how long articles sit in the deletion queue without appropriate action. But I suppose this is no longer any concern of mine.<br />
<br />
:::Nevertheless, I again thank administration for what was eventually done. [[User:Sarky|Sarky]] ([[User talk:Sarky|talk]]) 03:52, 30 September 2017 (UTC)<br />

== Problems with Image Uploading ==<br />
<br />
Hello Emperor Jonathan. It's you're favorite person to be bothered by! I'm pretty sure this would have to be something to forward to your tech team about, but I have been running into this same problem over and over again. If I go to upload a new version of a file, the new version will never, ever show up in its image form. This has been a problem for a few months now, and my way around it has always been to just upload a brand new file. However, this is inconvenient when the file that needs replacing is utilized by several articles. In this case Zenrax's flag. Within a half hour or so of jotting down my concerns here, I uploaded Zenrax's updated flag to replace the old file. But, although it registers the upload as successful, all of the articles this file belongs to showcase only the old flag. I thought maybe waiting for a bit, or refreshing my internet, would help solve the problem (if it was on my end). But still nothing. So, I've decided to bring this up to you, just in case it is a recurring problem with the data here, so that way you and your team can look into it. Thank you (yet again) for your time. [[User:Suzuki|Suzuki]] ([[User talk:Suzuki|talk]]) 07:11, 25 October 2017 (UTC)<br />
<br />
:I have asked around and this is definitely a problem with the MicroWiki itself, and not simply a glitch stemming from my computer. [[User:Suzuki|Suzuki]] ([[User talk:Suzuki|talk]]) 14:41, 25 October 2017 (UTC)<br />
::It does seem to take a while for images to update if you upload a new version of them, but it does happen. Refreshing your page does seem to help in my experience. [[User:Austenasia|Austenasia]] ([[User talk:Austenasia|talk]]) 14:55, 25 October 2017 (UTC)<br />

==[[:Category:Articles marked for deletion]] and [[:Category:Articles marked for speedy deletion]]==<br />
The sheer number of articles on the Microwiki that should have been deleted long ago is staggering; could we appoint a quick taskforce to speedy/otherwise delete these articles that have been waiting months for "Eritreans of Nedland" to be deleted? It clogs up the Wiki so fast that it becomes cumbersome for newcomers to navigate the site and find anything of actual value when we're inundated with nonsense and ego-flattering nonsense. I know Cip is an administrator, but I'm not sure individual articles are needed for each plush toy he owns... [[User:ILoveNy|ILoveNy]] ([[User talk:ILoveNy|talk]]) 04:08, 27 October 2017 (UTC)<br />
<br />
::Update, honestly I'm an admin on WMF - if you want, I could take on the job myself and limit my admin tasks to purely janitorial. Or at least give me a trial run of a month or something, promise I just want to tidy up. I don't even have/belongTo a MN, so how can I be biased?! Heh. [[User:ILoveNy|ILoveNy]] ([[User talk:ILoveNy|talk]]) 12:55, 27 October 2017 (UTC)<br />
<br />
:::Hi there! Unfortunately, a lot of articles marked for deletion shouldn't really be marked as such. The admins will be going through them soon; thanks for the prompt! As for you being appointed an administrator yourself, well... we're not really sure who you are! :D Have we spoken before? [[User:Austenasia|Austenasia]] ([[User talk:Austenasia|talk]]) 10:00, 28 October 2017 (UTC)<br />
<br />
:::Never spoken to, or heard of you, before. I've had a decades-long interest in micronations (with a bias towards brick and mortar, of course) but never been in one...and a...egad, almost decades-long involvement with WMF (Wikimedia Foundation, Wikipedia, Commons, etc) and really just want to help clean up this wiki because it's overwhelmingly full of information on...things bordering on patent nonsense. And while I'm sure there's a place for the post-2011 wave of "new" micronations, I'd love to see information on, let us say Cip's plush animals, consolidated into a single article so that visitors and newcomers (as one myself, to this wiki at least) are not completely overwhelmed by the...less than professional idea that micronations only exist as online RPGs in peoples' minds, but can see the wide variety, easily sorted and categorised - allowing them to delve into that which interests them. Because honestly, the guys at North Dumpling Island or Sealand aren't likely to care about what's going on in MyLivingRoomStan, and similarly, MyLivingRoomStan is unlikely to care about what's going on at Sealand...so helping to just divide ''this site'' into better-categorised and sorted arenas would really help. <br />
<br />
::::Per the "shouldn't be marked for deletion", many of them have been thus marked without even their creators objecting and removing the tag in months...many months. At that point, I feel it's probably worth assuming the article text is better '''merged''' into another existing article so that it will at least be ''read'' at some point.

== Headline Newspaper Revision ==<br />
Hello! I’m concerned about the inactivity regarding the headlines section for the main page. Many newspapers from micronations are trying to put their news on the headlines section. Also, it seems unfair how no newspapers are added, yet 50% of the current (January 3, 2017) headlines are from ONE COUNTRY (Abeldane)!!! Currently, I’m also awaiting for the [[Andanian Times]] —> [[File:Andanian Times.png|85px]] <— to be reviewed for the headlines. Thank You! <br />
<br />
--[[User:PMaciasL|PMaciasL]] ([[User talk:PMaciasL|talk]]) 07:51, 3 January 2018 (UTC)<br />
:Hi there! Thanks for the message. I make it 37.5% (3/8) of stories about Abeldane, but that's over the course of over a fortnight; it'd be unfair to restrict their articles simply because some other nations aren't as active. The current applications have all been reviewed, but I'm sorry to say that I'm not sure the Andanian Times is quite up to scratch yet. There are only two articles on it so far: one is rather short, and the other doesn't actually seem to have any content other than a picture of an organization's logo. Remind me to have another look in a month or so, when there are more articles, and we'll go over it again.

<br />
Users such as [[User:TroyFournier22]] and [[User:LyleLabonte1]], and definitely a few more users are concerning me with possible spam. I know this isn't much, but I'm still asking you to check these accounts too. This is definitely the doings of a certain, or a number, of linked people. They have many characteristics in similar. <br />
-Have First name, Last name, and a simple number<br />
-Have an age, working at an education system on their user pages<br />
-Only contributions are the ones on their user page<br />
-Have a website on the bottom which leads to some useless stuff<br />
(And yes, I figured all that out)<br />
There might be more so-called "users" here that do the same thing.<br />

Hello Your Imperial Majesty! I would like a short revision of the [[Principality of Andany]] article. This is because I really want to know if it is good. Honestly, I’ve added as much original content as I can, so far. When you get the time, I would like to request a non-formal or formal (depending on what you want) revision. I picked you because you are nice when it comes to talking to. It’s quite a pleasure talking to you as well. Thank You very much!<br />

:This article is certainly coming along nicely! Just a few suggestions I'd give you for improvement:<br />
#There are two templates at the top - "Principality of Andany" and "This article relates to the Principality of Andany" - which don't need to be there. ''We know'' this article is about Andany; it's in the name!<br />
#If Floris has a population of 5, Floriano has a population of 1, and the other states and cities have populations of 0, how does Andany have 8 residents?<br />
#In the "Foreign relations" section, the map claims you have embassies in France and Italy, but these aren't mentioned in the main text of the article.<br />
#I think the Ethnicity pie chart needs updating.<br />
#The Gallery at the bottom isn't really necessary; most of the image files there have already been used elsewhere in the article. At the very least, they should be captioned.<br />
#Please make sure to use the [[MicroWiki:Manual of style|Manual of style]], especially in regards to dates. E.g., use 9 January 2017 instead of January 9, 2017.<br />
::I hope this helps! [[User:Austenasia|Austenasia]] ([[User talk:Austenasia|talk]]) 09:22, 9 January 2018 (UTC)<br />
<br />
*Hello! Thank you very much for reviewing it! First of all, I appreciate the fact th you noticed the smallest of detail! Also, I need to update many facts, such as the residents. There are 8 residents and 1 is American and 1 is Russian. I would just need to update that throughout where that appears. Secondly, I also need to update the state populations! Thank you for noticing that. The “Gallery” at the bottom is only for reference to the images I need to use, though, I only need to copy the names down as the rest are used in at least 1 article. They will be removed, as in from the article. You’re also right about the style, as I don’t use it all the time, I need to get used to it when writing at MicroWiki. The style looks fancier too. About the embassy thing, I need to update the article about the new ones that aren’t recognized as of yet by the micronation of origin. Finally, I can’t thank you enough for review my article. Probably by early February, I might consider nominating my article to the Good Article status’s I know how to do it now... I’m sorry but I find it extremely amazing how someone in the U.K. is reading this, especially when it’s the site admin! I may sound annoying, but thank you very much for your time! Your feedback will help immensely when writing. Best wishes to you, Austenasia, and your family!<br />

== Flag Cup ==<br />
<br />
Pardon me, Emperor Jonathan, but would it be too much to ask for you to stop deleting and replacing the macronational flag files I am creating? I realize that many of them have duplicates, but at the same time I'm trying to simply streamline the process. Rather than have a file called "Flag of France" or "France1280px" or "FR-187459img" or other ridiculous notions, I'm attempting to upload the whole set of them as France1.png. This makes putting the data into brackets easier, and so I don't have to go running around trying to source a file. The files changing on me overnight was quite a shock, to say the least. When the Cup ends in mid-June, if you feel like cleaning up the mess I've made, I'll be a bit more for it. But for now, I ask that you leave the simple system I have be, or else replace other peoples files with my uploads instead. [[User:Suzuki|Suzuki]] ([[User talk:Suzuki|talk]]) 16:43, 26 January 2018 (UTC)<br />
<br />
Having looked over everything, I'm fine with it now. However, I do plan on re-uploading new versions of each file, just in case their are errors. I've noticed a number of flags have their colors off, or their proportions are severely misaligned. I'm also trying to get each file to have an established length, in this case the standard wikipedia length of 1280 pixels. I apologize for confusing you, but I'll try not to smash your site full of files in the future. [[User:Suzuki|Suzuki]] ([[User talk:Suzuki|talk]]) 17:04, 26 January 2018 (UTC)<br />
:I'm sorry Suzuki, I really hope I haven't disrupted it too much! Please do feel free to re-upload versions of the files if any are sub-standard. I've just been meaning to implement a standard "File:Flag of ###.png" format for flag files for months now, and having the flags of every macronation in the world linked to from a single page just seemed such a useful situation.

::Well, you didn't screw me up too much. Just a bit of a shock at first, but I quickly got over it! All of the flags have been replaced by the correct files directly from Wikipedia, and they are all in the correct galleries.

== Copyright Issues ==<br />
Greetings amazing Emperor Jonathan! I would like to address a copyright issue with one of my pictures. So on an News article made by ([[User:Sez]]), he placed the Andany 2018 Logo, except he put a Red Cross on it (basic defacement) and shamed two organizations. According to U.S. and Andanian Copyright Laws, it is unlawful to use a copyrighted image without permission from the owner (consent). He obviously forgot or something, as he thought “boycotting” the organizations was the best choice. Personally, members of a Discord (from which he recently expelled himself from) have also agreed that he is starting to act like a full on moderator compared to us. While you can’t control the chat, you do have the right to tell him to remove the copyrighted make image. Even on the uploaded image here in MicroWiki has the Andanian Copyright Template. Also, he tried posting his article on the “More news” page, but I undid that because an article shouldn’t have copyrighted images used without permission. Anyways, I hope I’m really not causing a disturbance to you and MicroWiki, though I do think that he ([[User:Sez]]) has gone far enough. Thank you very much!<br />

<br />
Thank you for taking the logo out, and I never said it was “‘Far enough’”. I’m saying you’re making false accusations towards two similar organizations. Also, I never stated that you don’t have the “right to criticize”. I might have said that you’re criticism is wrong, but I never said you couldn’t, though, it is wrong to critize incorrectly. It’s like saying that Danatia wasn’t founded on 30 December, even though it was. I hope you understand, and I also noticed Danatia is now Liber. I think that name is actually cool to be honest. Anyways, best wishes with LIBER!<br />

Hello Your Imperial Majesty! I would like to bring up an important problem that I face. If I try to put an OGG audio file, it doesn't appear on the page. I notied it has happened to all other pages with the OGG files; which is something that I find weird, as I could see and play the file on a page. Is there any way it can be fixed?<br />

==Problems with wiki and images==<br />
Hello, I have an issue whereby whenever I upload a new version of an image then the image does not update in the pages that it is. I am just asking if you have any knowledge of this problem, is it problem on just wiki or my personal device? --[[File:F1 green flag.png|25px|border|link=Union of Islamic Micronations]] [[User:OIMGov|OIMGov]] ([[User talk:OIMGov|talk]]) 17:34, 14 March 2018 (UTC)<br />
<br />
:If you're replacing a file with an updated image, it will take some time for the image to appear in the associated articles. The time it takes for this to occur can range from a week to a month, depending on how many images need to be replaced at any given time (there's a backlog). I've brought this matter a number of times myself to the staff, but it seems that this problem has no real solution other than to simply be patient and wait. However, if you're in a hurry, rather than replace a file, just upload a brand new file. For some reason doing that doesn't take several days, but seconds, to process.[[User:Suzuki|Suzuki]] ([[User talk:Suzuki|talk]]) 20:21, 14 March 2018 (UTC)<br />

== Renaming [[John I of Baustralia]] ==<br />
<br />
Hello your Imperial Majesty,<br><br />
I was wondering if I could rename my page to John I instead of John I of Baustralia. I ask this because I feel that it would be biased for my page on the website to be John I of Baustralia and not John I of Wangatangia or Tentacion.<br />
<br><br><br />
Regards,<br><br />
His (Imperial) Majesty, [[John I of Baustralia|John I]] by the Grace of God of Baustralia, and the Dominions, [[Emperor of Tentacion]]<br />
:I would say there's too many John I's out there. Most people call Elizabeth II Queen of the UK, not queen of UK, Canada, ... [[User:Sez|Sez]] ([[User talk:Sez|talk]]) 23:14, 14 April 2018 (UTC)<br />
::On Wikipedia, the article of [[w:Elizabeth II|Elizabeth II]] is known simply as that, because in a similar way to John's reasoning, it would be biased to prioritize her sovereignty over the United Kingdom above that which she holds over Canada, Australia, New Zealand, etc. It's the same for her immediate predecessors, too. That being said, Sez has a good point; there are currently at least four other "John I"s with articles on MicroWiki, and in this situation disambiguation is the most important thing to ascertain. Baustralia remains, if I am correct, your primary realm and that with which you are most strongly associated, and so I think it best if that remain the article title. [[User:Austenasia|Austenasia]] ([[User talk:Austenasia|talk]]) 06:59, 15 April 2018 (UTC)<br />
:::I agree, sorry for the late reply. Even though there are four other John I's, I'm the only reigning one who's realms are active. For that reason, I've renamed it, once again, against your wishes, but I left a disambugation hatnote above.<br />
:::I hope you understand,<br />
:::His (Imperial) Majesty, [[John I of Baustralia|John I]] by the Grace of God of Baustralia, and the Dominions, [[Emperor of Tentacion]]<br />
:::'''EDIT''': You have said that Baustralia is my primary realm, I disagree. It may be the head of the other realms, I am active in all just the same. I personally consider all of my realms primary.<br />

== Page Deletion ==<br />
Greetings, your majesty. I have recently been involved with the [[Peoples Republic of Duke]] and other micronations. They aren't siding with my views or democratic ideologies, so I guess that gave them the right and reason to create a whole Twitter account hating on me and Andany. Also, they "created a batter Andany" in this page, [[Republic of Andany]]. I don't know what you think yet, but this looks like a puppet state made for attention. This started in Twitter, but now it's in MicroWiki. This is why I've decided to tell you. All they say is that they don't like how the current Andanian government "spreads lies" and "creates fake citizens", even though one person said they made many fake citizenship applications. The truth is that I'm the one tired of all this. I'm constantly bombarded with hate messages and trash talk about and to me, and no one seems to notice or care. I will ask you to try and deal with the MicroWiki page, but I think I'll handle the Twitter page. Thank you.<br />

We have been fid up of the lies and narsisim comeing from The reign of Pablo the 1st, As you may be aware he lied about the ufo sigting (red blood mon) and The recogntion of showell, Where he lives, and members of his government including Andanian oppestition leader ''Will Van Den Boom'' , His narsisim has been also a major problem, he gets relly angry when someone questions him or denies him of something, he also broken deals and when backed into a courner hw will pretend to help everyone so people will like him again but then later undo all of that, he has also made us stuff that we have used with out copyrighting it including the country balls he made that he said in his own words were 100% ours, hes also a hypocrite copying other people work to like his currunt coat of arms which is a copy of the propesed coa of New isreal, So for then we dicided that we had enough and had to stop this lying and narsiism plaging the micronational community , so we made The Republic of Andany, the twitter account was made to put propaganda on to try to convince people to join our cause but on eof us got a little bit to far and kinda turned it into a hate account, we hope that you do penalizes us and understand<br />

I am Russell Gilzem (username: incipious) and I would like to request that my micronation, [[Republic of Aenderia]], and our media outlet, [https://aenderiantimes.wordpress.com/] be allowed to post in "current headlines" section of the main page. The Republic of Aenderia, and I, are very active on MicroWiki and are constantly posting in the "other news" section of the main page. We would like to get out important news out to everyone who clicks on this website, and be informed of what is happening within our micronation.<br />

== Nomination for Good Articles ==<br />
Hello, I recently nominated an article (Empire of Barbettia) to be a good article. I was wondering how long I should wait before re-nomination, and if you have any advice on what I could do to improve our chances next time?<br />
Thank you,<br />
King James of the Empire of Barbettia<br />
::Hello there! Thanks for the message. Well, first off, the Introduction reads a bit like an advert; a nation can't have "big plans" or "believe" in certain concepts, and these statements would better apply to yourself, or to the Barbettian government. Mostly, reading through the article (now I want to try a rice samosa...), I think it's really just a matter of phrasing; there are a lot of short sentences which don't really flow well together. I've edited the first of the two main paragraphs in the "National Symbols" section to give you an example of what I mean. Other than that, there are just a few too many formatting mistakes (section headers should be in sentence case, "table tennis" and "golden eagle" shouldn't be capitalized, all dates should be in "10 September 2018" format, etc.). I hope this is helpful; have a go at improving the article yourself, focusing on what I pointed out, and I'll give it a few tweaks if I think it can still be improved. [[User:Austenasia|Austenasia]] ([[User talk:Austenasia|talk]]) 18:27, 10 September 2018 (UTC)<br />

Everyone is free to contribute to every article of this website.

Oh, i was almost forgetting, you also showed me your infinite education, insulting me on Twitter through your personal account, in matter about to property of your article). Rules that seems You completely don't know. I'm sorry, but i will continue to follow the rules, and i will continue to edit, in constructive way, every article that i can improve with my personal knowledge.

== Series of unconstructive edits ==<br />
<br />
Hello Mr.Jonathan,<br />
<br />
I'm contacting you in regards to the ''[[religion in micronationalism]]'' article. After you protected the religion template, that of which I am glad for, it appears that Markus II of [[New Israel]] has decided to go further by inserting counter-productive edits into the said article.<br />
<br />
He has not only added dubious information, but he has even made the monotheistic category broader than it already is. This person refuses to have other non-Christian yet Abrahamic/Semitic religions featured by the [[Apostolic Church of New Israel]], all due to his personal bias. This has been counted as bias because Abrahamic religions are defined as monotheistic religions of West Asian origin, emphasizing and tracing their common origin to Abraham (or recognizing a spiritual tradition identified with him).<br />
<br />
The input about several states choosing an established religion is unnecessary as well. That information was already provided in the third paragraph which states: "''In the micronational community, several individuals have formed their own religions. Most religions created in the micronational community are developed as serious attempts at alternative religions. Several are created in protest to already existing ones while some are developed as hobbies, or, in a similar way that a micronation is devoted to (developed merely for the sake of developing).''"<br />
<br />
It seems that he even dislikes the fact that definitions are placed in the monotheistic and polytheistic sections, especially when the definition of Abrahamic religions was added.<br />
<br />
I would like to request that you look into this situation, as for [[MicroWiki]] ought to be a source of truth, and not of personal, radical and/or prejudice religious bias.<br />
<br />
By the way, to further validate this conflict, we must refer to his talk page when he stated: "And, indeed, only Judaism and Christianity are recognized as having any legitimacy in my eyes and the eyes of the New Israeli church." This leads to the condemnation of bias as well, as for he only considers anything Judeo-Christian, or at least Orthodox or Catholic as being worthy forms of monotheism (or, Abrahamic traditions).<br />

Finally removal of the block,I unbelievable hacker really hacks on Microwiki last a few days when I knew the News of "Islamic State(Daesh)" hacks on Wiki. THANK YOU good choice given him an Infinite block and Safe our Microwiki in future .But the problem is we don't know how hacker got our IP address last monday ,we currently worries our page become threatened, if hacker use our IP again everyday,then we will can't be edit our page everyday yet ?!<br />
<br />
Secondly,Our page data really problem may be leaked out, if him(vandalist) is really terrorist or criminal hacker, his active is very seriously violated the rules.Hacker who was attempted to framed us got a temporary block last Monday. But it's unfair with us, we were no doing crime,but we got a temporary block that's hacker's plan . So please Emperor Jonathan I continues monitor the user CyberKLFH , prevent him vandalism ,and we needs to avoid get automatic block again.<br />
<br />
Thirdly, our page luckily no damage by vandalism hacker ,if Emperor did not block him our page will be next target ,because our nation also claim against Islamic State(Daesh). So I thanks for you again because you safe our page .I thinks the vandalism hacker who incomprehensible and unknown purpose ,may be him(Vandalist) hatred to us ,did you agree with me?<br />
<br />
Lastly, I hope Emperor need establish a new system to already block the vandalism hacker out of Microwiki, briefly vandalism hacker already cannot enter all pages of Microwiki. I was Written a warnings in our Conzorica page talk, please Emperor continues guard our page.<br />

Hi, last night I posted under 'Other News' that the "Organization for Legitimacy Seeking Micro-States" was created to help micronations seeking recognition of sovereignty on the world stage. I also linked that line to the organization's new website. Today, I came by MicroWiki only to find that had been deleted. It was not posted under the area for approved publications only, nor did it contain any vulgarity or falsehoods. Can you please tell me why it was deleted?<br />
:Another user removed it, with "Advertising a website is not the same thing as a news article" given as his reason. To be fair, I'd say he's right; it wasn't a link to a news article, but to a website. It may be a better idea for you to post this on the forums.

I'm trying to figure out how to have my article, the [[Democratia of New Starland]], have three more redirect links when you type '''DNS''', '''Raoul Commune''' or '''New Starland''' in the search bar. I couldn't find that function within the article's computer readout stuff in the edit page, nor in any of the available tool bars ("Page Information" tool looked like the one, but I couldn't figure out how to edit it). Where is this information kept, and how can I go about editing it?<br />
<br />
Thank you for your time Jonathan. Sincerely, [[User:DNSgov|DNSgov]] ([[User talk:DNSgov|talk]]) 07:26, 29 June 2016 (BST)<br />
:If you're asking how to have all those titles redirect to [[Democratia of New Starland]], create each page separately under the title you list, then make its contents <nowiki>#REDIRECT[[Democratia of New Starland]]</nowiki>.

== Questions regarding the overhauling of an article ==<br />
<br />
So, I've decided to completely overhaul the [[Starland Republic and New Pamlico]] wiki article, which I originally authored about 3 or 4 years ago. I'm attempting to get it in a state that it can become a contender for Good Article status, much like the [[Democratia of New Starland|DNS]] article. I have a few questions and requests regarding this revamping, the first of which is the naming of the article. The defunct micronation's name is officially the Starland Republic and New Pamlico, but after the founding of New Starland last year we've simply referred to the precursor as DSL-Starland. So, should the article be renamed DSL-Starland or should it maintain the name Starland Republic and New Pamlico? Also, since the article was created by me years ago, under a different (and lost) account, how can I go about reclaiming ownership of that article? Lastly, DSL-Starland was officially succeeded by the [[San Dover Kingdom|San Dover Queendom]], but I honestly consider this more of a spin-off of DSL-Starland than a separate entity, and have thus decided to include it's two week history somewhere in the revamped SR&NP article. Thus, I request a deletion of that article, since it will no longer be needed after the overhaul is finished. [[User:DNSgov|DNSgov]] ([[User talk:DNSgov|talk]]) 22:21, 23 July 2016 (BST)<br />
<br />
: Going along with the reasoning behind deleting the San Dover Queendom article and transferring its information in the revitalized SR&NP article, I've decided to do the same edits to the [[New Pamlico Federation]] article. This is because that micronation, although technically founded independently of DSL-Starland, is so intertwined with the Starland legacy that it would actually be more out of place with its own article than San Dover would. [[User:DNSgov|DNSgov]] ([[User talk:DNSgov|talk]]) 01:29, 24 July 2016 (BST)<br />
::For a historical micronation, you should call the article whatever its subject matter is most frequently referred to, so in this case DSL-Starland would be fine (although mention at the top of the article what the official name was). No articles are "owned" by anyone, so there's no issue in regards to your new account. Add a Deletion template to any article you no longer need once its information has been included elsewhere.

[[File:New logo proposal.png|200px|thumb|right|My proposal, for Your vision]]<br />
Gentle Administrator,<br><br />
Since MicroWiki moved from its original website into this, I do think that the logo should be updated too.<br><br />
I took the permiss to draw one by myself, what I think could be a nice one, made by a mix of the most famous world's Micronations (from Austenasia to Westarctica, Hutt River, Sealand, Christiania, Seborga, etc...), with the shape of a world globe.<br><br />
Please find it attached to this my humble message.<br><br />
I hope to hear from You about my proposal, and i hope that You will like my idea.<br><br />
With respect,<br><br />

Hello, I'm Abigail Juneau (as you can see). I am here on behalf of the Michigan Upper Peninsula Micronational Union, formed by [[Grand Duke Liam]] or [[User:Liam.carignan|Liam]], I understand the issue you have with him and the mass amounts of incorrect literacy he used in his cites, however, as the Secretary-General of the MUPMU, I'd very much appreciate if you could possibly end his temporary ban? For simple diplomatic negotiations of course.<br />
<br />
Also, I'd like to put in that the IP address that I'm using at this moment is infact, '''MY''' home IP address, Liam used it before to create the micronation, it was a dual co-ownership until I split from the creation of the micronation and became an allied member.

Howdy, Jonathan. It's Suzuki again! A couple of things. First, I would like to inform you that [[Sunþrawegaz Kuningadōmas]] unilaterally recognizes the [[Empire of Austenasia]]. Usually I'd contact you via Skype to share this information, but I haven't been able to reach you from there for some time now. But, get back to me if you wish for our micronation's have a bilateral relationship. Secondly, I am no longer in [[Republic of Drew Star Line|DSL]]. I left that micronation because, quite frankly, I wasn't very happy there, and hadn't been for a long time. I would like to request that my username here on the wiki be changes from "DNSgov" to "Suzuki", to reflect my current (and definite future) standing. Giitu!

== Conflict Resolution ==<br />
<br />
Hello again, Emperor Jonathan. I am annoying you for the third time this week (has it been a week?), to ask your help in resolving a small wiki editing conflict that has come about. [[User:E.C Occitanie|E.C Occitanie]] has officially banned me from his country, as can be found in the article: [[List of people banned from entering Occitania]]. My problem is not with this fact (I could care less), but instead with this section right here:<br />
<br />
<small>so called</small> [[File:Sunþrawegaz Flag.png|25px]] [[Sunþrawegaz Kuningadōmas|Sunþrawegaz]]<br />
<br />
The part that gets me is the "so called" aspect of the term. I have removed this small part twice now, only to have it reverted by the Occitanian user. Which is why I'm asking for your advice on how to resolve this conflict. My reasoning behind having "so called" removed has been stated in both of my edits, and is as follows:<br />
<br />
"The micronation of Sunþrawegaz does not contain the words "so" and "called" within its official or common name, nor do those terms come about through proper translation from Proto-Germanic."<br />
<br />
It should be noted that I have been banned from entering [[Popular Union of Occitania|Occitania]] for claiming the Kerguelen Islands, for which this micronation believes is sovereign French territory that is not to be trespassed upon, and has labeled me as an apparently careless imbecile who is more concerned with territorial expansion then ecological preservation. I am assuming that this gentleman is not very familiar with how many micronational land claims overstep the boundaries of macronational interests. Either way, I would like to see the removal of "so called" from the aforementioned page, as I feel that it is besmirching to not just myself and [[Sunþrawegaz Kuningadōmas|Sunþrawegaz]], but to micronationalism as a whole. I do not feel that me and my project are any more or less "so called" then any other micronation in the community, including Occitania, and I believe anybody else here would agree with that sentiment. <br />
<br />
Thank you for your time, and I am hope that this won't cause you too much trouble. [[User:DNSgov|DNSgov]] ([[User talk:DNSgov|talk]]) 20:46, 15 August 2017 (UTC)<br />
<br />
:For consistency, I would also like to point out recent edits to the aforementioned page that have been made since my complain was lobbied to you. The first is the claim that I have made "massive editions on Occitanian pages in [[MicroWiki]]." This is entirely false, unless two edits on the same page worth 25 bites of information that apply to only two words are to be considered "massive." I'm pointing this out not because I believe the statement should be retracted, but because I believe it was done to delegitimize my argument for having "so called" removed from the same page. <br />
<br />
:The second point involves the usage of the term "so called." [[User:E.C Occitanie|E.C Occitanie]] claims that its usage, which was again added after this conflict resolution request was filed, as such:<br />
<br />
:''So called'' means that this micronation is [[Foreign relations of Occitania|not recognized]] by the Occitanian administration. This term is use as diplomatic decorum. <br />
<br />
:I believe first and foremost that the very fact [[Sunþrawegaz Kuningadōmas|Sunþrawegaz]] is even on this list proves that [[Popular Union of Occitania|Occitania]] does not recognize my micronation, so the point is moot. Secondly, that information can be found on the page [[Foreign relations of Occitania]], under section 3.4. This attempt at making a "point" is nothing more than an attempt to legitimize a term I believe is entirely uncalled for. If any more similar edits are made, I will make you aware of them as they progress until this conflict is resolved.<br />
<br />
:Once again, I thank you for your time, Emperor Jonathan, and I hope that this hasn't become a bother for you. [[User:DNSgov|DNSgov]] ([[User talk:DNSgov|talk]]) 21:37, 15 August 2017 (UTC)<br />

<br />
:::Apparently [[User:E.C Occitanie|E.C Occitanie]] still does not understand the meaning of the phrase: "On MicroWiki, though, all micronations are equal." The user has loop-holed around the "so called" term and has now put Sunþrawegaz in quotation marks and in italic font. Again, I hate bothering you with this somewhat trivial stuff, but believe you me, this guy has been hounding me about Sunþrawegaz since Saturday, and if I am to get anything out of my less-then-enjoyable dealings with this user, I would like to at least maintain some of Sunþrawegōz integrity. And that integrity includes the correct and unbiased referencing of my micronation.<br />
<br />
:::Again, I thank you for your time, and I apologize that this matter has not been fully resolved sooner then either of us had intended. [[User:Suzuki|Suzuki]] ([[User talk:Suzuki|talk]]) 13:06, 16 August 2017 (UTC)<br />
<br />
::::It would seem that my complaints to you have been heard by [[User:E.C Occitanie|E.C Occitanie]], as upon my last message he almost immediately removed the quotation marks and the italics, and has gone about and made an unbiased color-coded system for identifying the nations on that list of his. This I have no problems with, however I will keep you informed if these appreciable edits are reverted. [[User:Suzuki|Suzuki]] ([[User talk:Suzuki|talk]]) 13:15, 16 August 2017 (UTC)<br />
<br />
:::::The formatting that was agree-able to both parties continues to be edited in a biased manner by both [[User:Mahuset|Mahuset]] and [[User:E.C Occitanie|E.C Occitanie]]. The agree-able formatting, which I have told the Occitanian President I have no qualms with, involved the usage of a color-coded table to show that Occitania does not recognize Sunþrawegaz, a true and unbiased fact. However, within hours of this revision, this formatting was abandoned in favor of claiming that I am an American citizen. This is false, as I denounced my citizenry in July 2015 in a display of my commitment to the [[Republic of Drew Star Line|Raoul Commune]], a fact that can be confirmed by several members of this community, including the leaders of Aarbaro and Zenrax. Although I still currently reside in the United States, and I doubt the US authorities believe I am a foreign national, I have yet to publicly reclaim my American citizenship. As such, the only nation I am a citizen of is Sunþrawegaz, and this article must reflect that.<br />
<br />
:::::I have twice now reverted it back to the agreed-upon formatting, only to have Mahuset change it wrongly back to the statistic that I am an American and not a Sunþrawegoz. According to Mahuset, the reason behind showcasing me as an American citizen on the list is because the article is from the perspective of the Occitanian government. I was under the impression that the MicroWiki should always display unbiased information, and not from the single perspective from any one micronation, and I voiced my belief in that in both of my reverts. <br />
<br />

<br />
::::::I ''am'' updating it to what amounts to unbiased information, take the British equivalent to the article on Wikipedia ( [[w:List of people banned from entering the United Kingdom]] and you'll see what I mean. The list is maintained and upheld by individuals from the Occitanian government and refers to information as interpreted by such, the easiest example I can name is articles on the Olympics where Taiwan is called "Chinese Taipei" because that's what the IOC (the governing authority of said subject) regards it to be instead of the actual Taiwan or Republic of China. Besides that, it's not only funny but completely ironic that you start an edit war on a page mentioning you as harassing the original author, because by that you have completely proven him to be right in his convictions. --Emiel Sebastiaan Hardy<br />
<br />
::::::[[User:Mahuset |User Profile]] [[User_talk:Mahuset | User Talk]] [[Special:Contributions/Mahuset | Contributions]] 17:14, 17 August 2017 (UTC)<br />
<br />
:::::::Firstly, your example doesn't compute. How one refers to Taiwan has no standing relevance when I am talking about what country I am not a citizen of. Secondly, this is a conflict between myself and Occitania, to be mediated by the administration team. You are not me, you are not part of Occitania, and you are not an administrator, so why you have decided to involve yourself in this is beyond me. Thirdly, you don't know how this began and you don't know why I've been banned from Occitania. They can ban me from entering their micronation for whatever reason they see fit, but the truth of the matter is they have a problem with Sunþrawegaz claiming the Kerguelen Islands, and I have flat our refused to drop those claims. If anybody has actually been harassed, it has been me and Emperor Thomas, as both of us have had to deal with the full brunt of attacks on something as trivial as claiming land, something all micronations do, and something only a few are able to control in the first place.<br />
<br />
:::::::This website is designed to showcase unbiased information on micronationalism. Being unbiased includes not professing to falsehoods, like the falsehood that I am American citizen. I gave that up a while ago, and I have not looked back on it. But I will not stand for somebody I have never met, and quite frankly I have only been aware even existed for less then a week, telling not just me but the whole world who I am (or in this am not). No, I will stop until this "edit war" until me and Sunþrawegaz are properly represented in an unbiased manner on this site. I was perfectly happy with the changes made yesterday, the ones you keep deleting, as it was unbiased and not false. All I ask is for the page to revert to that and not be changed by people like you who are completely unaware of the situation. [[User:Suzuki|Suzuki]] ([[User talk:Suzuki|talk]]) 18:24, 17 August 2017 (UTC)<br />
<br />
<br />
::::::::I just wanted to inform you that as far as I can tell, the conflict has exhausted itself out. Since I've changed Sunþrawegaz's purpose, I really no longer see any of this as being an issue. An annoyance, maybe. But at least an ignorable annoyance. Didn't know if you were still working in the background on this one, but nothing has come up from it on my end for a couple of weeks now. So, I guess it's "conflict resolved." And again, thank you for your help. [[User:Suzuki|Suzuki]] ([[User talk:Suzuki|talk]]) 22:07, 28 August 2017 (UTC)<br />

== RE: ""Split"" ==<br />
<br />
To clarify -<br />
<br />
Yes, we are much smaller than the GUM Community, which has around sixty or seventy people. At present, The Monarchist Republic has eighteen people, and the MAFE has eleven. However, that is by no means 'just me'. I understand that you probably feel we are being ridiculous, affording ourself undeserved status, insulting the values of the old community, and behaving childishly, but that is no reason to lower yourself to insulting us and deleting our pages. I understand that you do not recognise it and that many people do not, but this is not a reason to delete the pages. Describing them as "[p]atent nonsense... pages that contain no meaningful content" is just rude and not a proper application of the policy.<br />
<br />
I understand that you don't think we have managed to achieve anything here. However, for us, one active chatroom with nearly twenty members and an ongoing recruitment process on the forums is better than we hoped for. If you do not want to recognise it as a major event, go ahead. But you have no reasonable grounds for deleting the pages or for showing the lack of respect you have done in your messages. I'm happy to level with you and admit that yes, we're a small community. But the accusation that "we both know it's just you" is arrogant and rude at a level that definitely outstrips trying to create MicroWiki pages on the subject that even acknowledge some people's questioning of its legitimacy.<br />
<br />
Therefore, consider me to be contesting this deletion, and more personally asking for you to discuss this with me like a sensible diplomat.<br />

: Here's my opinion on the whole thing: Up until yesterday, I heard absolutely nothing about a so-called "community split." I'm neither a part of the GUM, nor a part of the Old Guard, and yet I use the MicroWiki forums. As far as I know, almost everyone there does. Yes, you might be considered another '''part''' of the community, and you might actually be successful in recruiting members from the forums to your cause. But until this new sect gains its own actual identity and is able to pull from literally just one source for its member base, I think it would be still considered as still very much a part of the larger MicroWiki community in general. I don't see any signs of this "split" manifesting itself on the prominent Skype chats. <br />
<br />
<br />
: I don't see much of anything of that nature happening on the Forums. I'm literally about as much of an "Establishment Outsider" as it gets -- Zenrax hardly shares its citizens with others, for one. Now, if we start seeing an actual split of the community like what happened before my time with this whole Wikia / Wiki business, then I'll eat my words and say "You know what, this guy has a really good point." For now though, it might be best to promote your ideals from within the community as it exists, to change it for the better. Trying to get people to funnel themselves into an artificial "in or out" scenario will only come back to haunt people.<br />

<br />
:: Just to clarify regarding the Skype chats, that's actually the main area this has taken place - i.e. the centre of our group is a seperate Skype chatroom and we, at least most of us, left other groups like the RF. The only micronational chatrooms I am in now relate to the new community or individual micronations, and I know the same is true for several other people.<br />
<br />
:: We don't have our own wiki, partially due to financial constrainsts and partially because we never wanted to leave MicroWiki itself. We always wanted to be a parallel aspect of the MicroWiki community and function as parrallel to the traditional set of Skype chatrooms. Johnathan has decided that this is a figment of my imagination and does not want to recognise it. Truth be told, yes I am the only one focussing on creating wiki articles for it, but that's at least in part because other people predicted we would have them deleted. I just want John to let me create the pages and fill them with realistic information, which he can of course check himself to see if it reflects reality, and then be on my way. I was optimistic enough never to expect this discussion to take place, and I would just like to create factual wiki pages on the existence of our smaller sub-community, the circumstances by which we came about and the criticisms we face. <br />

<br />
:::: The MicroWiki community is, by definition, those who use the MicroWiki. And so, while you can claim as much as you'd like that there has been a "split" in the community, a separate Skype chatroom doesn't define that. I've heard of a few of your members and to my knowledge at least several of them are still very involved in the goings-on in the community's core chatrooms. This, in essence, is what Jonathan is saying - there has been no split, and this "New Community" you speak of is - at best - another sector of the MicroWiki community. At worst, I suppose, you could say all it is would be a Skype chatroom.<br />
<br />
::::The main points for your "split" aside (a territory I could speak further about, perhaps another time), I do see the point Jonathan has made. And I'd say it's fair, more so now that you've specifically agreed with it by saying that you "always wanted to be a parallel aspect of the MicroWiki community." And let me make one last side-step to say that [https://theglastieven.wordpress.com/2017/08/27/johnathan-austen-refuses-to-allow-wiki-article-on-the-new-community-claiming-that-it-does-not-exist/ making this here news article is in no way going to help convince the MicroWiki site owner of your case]. [[User:Twain|Twain]] ([[User talk:Twain|talk]]) 15:08, 27 August 2017 (UTC)<br />
<br />
:::::I'm going to put my two cents in here. I am the infamous Suzuki, and I can tell you straight up that I'm probably one of the most hated members of the MicroWiki community. However, despite the loathing, I still love and respect this community. Why? Because this place doesn't have a "leader." Sure, Emperor Jonathan owns the domain. But he is so lenient on things. I've been a member of this community on and off since 2012 (before Jonathan even became the owner of this site), as well as being a very inactive member of three more micronational communities. And I can tell you that only in this community will you find the owner not try to influence the micronations that flock to their domain. Jonathan is the most fair community leader, and the most unassuming. I feel that your "New Community" is both trying to harm this man's image (which I can tell you from experience is very much an impossibility), as well as an attempt by yourself to influence other micronations, which I abhorrently despise. [[User:Suzuki|Suzuki]] ([[User talk:Suzuki|talk]]) 22:32, 28 August 2017 (UTC)<br />
<br />
::::::I'm back for more! Just a couple of points I want to make on this "New Community." Firstly, if it's just a Skype chatroom, you can't really call it a community. I run the Skype group Drunkiz Gadurō and it has representatives from 15 micronations there. Can I call the Drunkiz Gadurō a community? No, not really, at least it's no more or less a community than other micronationalist Skype groups out there, like Yellow Bear and the Flagon. Every true community I've been apart of, from the two incarnations of the MicroWiki (I've been around since before the switch in 2013), to the Wikia, to "Mr. Twain's Neighborhood" (which I think I'm the last active user on), and they all have an actual website, an organized forum, and two of them have a wikipedia-styled main site that contain various articles on various aspects of various micronations. Until the "New Community" has that, I don't think you can call yourself a micronational community of any kind.<br />
<br />
::::::My second point is this: the only successful split in this community that I am aware of, and Emperor Thomas of Zenrax alluded to, is the MicroWikia (which again, I'm also a user on). Nowhere on that site have I seen an outpouring of information on the Wiki-Wikia split, which you also won't find here either. The only reason I'm even aware of it is because I knew a user (Jackson Alexander) who was there when it happened. And as information on that split is lacking, I can assume that it wasn't article worthy, meaning that the split was never the end-all-be-all of the MicroWiki or the MicroWikia's history. Also, many people are users on both the Wiki and the Wikia, including Emperor Jonathan, who is an admin on the Wikia! Anyways, my point here is that community splits happen; they've happened before, and the'll happened again. But none of the previous splits have ever been article worthy, and unless a legit war breaks out over a split, it will continue to never happen.<br />
<br />
::::::Just a side comment that I though of whilst typing: if you're so against this community, then why do you continue to use this community's wiki and forums?<br />
<br />
::::::Well, that's my schpeal. I apologize to Jonathan for taking up yet more space on his Talk page for this. [[User:Suzuki|Suzuki]] ([[User talk:Suzuki|talk]]) 06:14, 29 August 2017 (UTC)<br />

== RE: Removal of my news articles from the main page ==<br />
<br />
Hey -<br />
<br />
With a due sense of exhaustion and dread, could I ask what policy other than "I'm in charge and I don't like you" gives you permisssion to remove both of my news articles from the main page, including the one unrelated to the edit summary you gave regarding the reversion? Come on here John, you're just proving me and the other people who won't take you seriously right. I'd love to be able to go back to my micronation and write a news article announcing that I was all wrong and you're perfectly reasonable and easy to work with, but when you exchange merely disagreeing with me for taking childish swipes, it gets really difficult to be unconvinced of the notion that you're abusing your power and are taking this all personally (and are therefore not likely to be open to compromise or even reasoned disvussion). Come on, I've asked once before, although you didn't respond. Are you there, John? Can we discuss this politely and reach a situation where we're both able to work with each other and where we're on the same page about the New Community?<br />
<br />
Come on, I know you're there :)<br />

::::I've not read the article in question, but I do wonder why if he has references that he is not alone in "separating" he isn't allowed to make at least an article on the wiki about that.

::::::This categorically isn't a non-biased wiki, John has himself stated that. In essence, because he and the admins of the wiki do not want to allow two communities to use the website, they are expressly forbidding me to make any reference to the New Community on the wiki, in essence. Although I would argue that factual reporting is not the same as 'advertising', I somewhat doubt that anybody will listen to me, given that as far as I can tell, 'the administrators say so' is a perfectly valid substitute for adherence to policies and guidelines on the website.<br />
<br />
::::::I am going to recreate one page with the title 'New Community' ([[New Community]]), as my contest of the deletion was ignored, and I will keep the page to factual reporting, not to "promote or advertise" the cause, as the administrators have forbidden. If John would like to follow his own policies and be fair, I would recommend he responds to my contest (or responds here), or edits the page to remove any content he believes to be untrue or advertising.

:::::::This shouldn't have to be said, but it's apparent that it has to be. MicroWiki is '''not''' a democracy. The MicroWiki costs £160 per year from Jonathan's own pocket, and its ridiculous for you to think you can use the site that he pays for to promote "breaking away" from the community. Jonathan is lax on most things, but I don't expect him to allow you to attempt to tear the community in two using the site that he pays for, and quite frankly you shouldn't expect that either. And let me second what Jonathan said earlier in this thread: this is not just him. He has consulted the admins, myself included, and we have all come to this conclusion. Moreover, I should point out how childish it is of you to go ahead and make the [[New Community]] page again, against the orders of the administration. In fact, that's pretty much against the rules in itself. The point here, all in all, is that you shouldn't get to use the MicroWiki to promote breaking away from the MicroWiki. Fairly simple if you ask me. [[User:Twain|Twain]] ([[User talk:Twain|talk]]) 17:09, 29 August 2017 (UTC)<br />

:::::::::Very well; I've edited the page to reflect the facts as they've been made known to myself and the other admins. However, as Twain rightly said, you are not to use MicroWiki to promote the breaking away from MicroWiki. The maintenance of community cohesion is one of the main duties of the admin team; that's not "propaganda", that's simply trying to make sure we all get along. The fostering of baseless rivalries and divisions will not be tolerated. I don't know how much clearer we can be.

:::::::::::Jonathan, as someone from Glastieve who has been following the proceedings and feels a neutral voice could help you to see it from a rational perspective I would like to point out a number of problems I have with the New Community article. First, Mark has gone into great detail regarding his reasons for founding the New Community in this document: https://docs.google.com/document/d/13YsSTWjizW4YEmTmzXCk2buYXvrLiSJGXkDrEei18SM/edit?usp=sharing. Second, a combination of 'condemnation, indifference, or humour' can hardly be described as 'near-unanimous' since unanimity requires all parties to share '''one''' stance and three have clearly been shown. Third, Mark is not the only member, there are currently around 20 members, maybe more if you count affiliated citizens of nations such as Nedland, Glastieve or Masuhet. Fourth, I would appreciate you not accusing Glastieve of 'self-aggrandizement' through the New Community as members of both communities are individuals not countries and this was an entirely independent venture.<br />

I mean, for [expletive]'s sake, it's all over the website, and after I post this, his name appears 28 times in this Talk page alone, just for copy-and-pasting! I don't know if this is to "get back" at Jonathan, but your "New Community" really sows seeds of doubt in GUM-haters of the MicroWiki community such I myself as to the legitimacy of your so-called "split."

::My original deletions were based off the articles I could find, primarily from your Navbox and categories.

My apologies for not seeing the additions, it should be taken care of now. {{Template:Twain Signature}} 4:42 29 September 2017 (UTC)<br />
<br />
:::Thank you for complying with the request, though for the record I would like to point out that some of the articles in question were in the navbox and nearly all of them were in the Grand Republic of Delvera category. Further, I specifically mentioned that I marked our remaining articles for deletion on the talk page of the main Delvera page before it was deleted, thus they were included in my original request of September 9. I never received a message asking if any other articles needed removal, but Consul Callahan did and recalls replying that there were indeed more articles. <br />
<br />
:::On another note, the reason I "quietly" marked the articles is that I did not want to cause any further outrage or accompanying censorship and in fact believed that I was following proper wiki procedure as per the deletion policy. I am left to wonder how long articles sit in the deletion queue without appropriate action. But I suppose this is no longer any concern of mine.<br />

== Problems with Image Uploading ==<br />
<br />
Hello Emperor Jonathan. It's you're favorite person to be bothered by! I'm pretty sure this would have to be something to forward to your tech team about, but I have been running into this same problem over and over again. If I go to upload a new version of a file, the new version will never, ever show up in its image form. This has been a problem for a few months now, and my way around it has always been to just upload a brand new file. However, this is inconvenient when the file that needs replacing is utilized by several articles. In this case Zenrax's flag. Within a half hour or so of jotting down my concerns here, I uploaded Zenrax's updated flag to replace the old file. But, although it registers the upload as successful, all of the articles this file belongs to showcase only the old flag. I thought maybe waiting for a bit, or refreshing my internet, would help solve the problem (if it was on my end). But still nothing. So, I've decided to bring this up to you, just in case it is a recurring problem with the data here, so that way you and your team can look into it. Thank you (yet again) for your time. [[User:Suzuki|Suzuki]] ([[User talk:Suzuki|talk]]) 07:11, 25 October 2017 (UTC)<br />

And while I'm sure there's a place for the post-2011 wave of "new" micronations, I'd love to see information on, let us say Cip's plush animals, consolidated into a single article so that visitors and newcomers (as one myself, to this wiki at least) are not completely overwhelmed by the...less than professional idea that micronations only exist as online RPGs in peoples' minds, but can see the wide variety, easily sorted and categorised - allowing them to delve into that which interests them. Because honestly, the guys at North Dumpling Island or Sealand aren't likely to care about what's going on in MyLivingRoomStan, and similarly, MyLivingRoomStan is unlikely to care about what's going on at Sealand...so helping to just divide ''this site'' into better-categorised and sorted arenas would really help. <br />

Good evening, I had wrote to [[User:Luxor|Luxor]], and asked if he could add a language to the [[Special:Interwiki]] page, but according to his user contributions, he hasn't been active for a while. If you could, could you please add my language to the page? This is what I wrote to him.<br />
<br><br />
:Good day, I have a language, and I wish to display it on the side of the page, so mobile users have much easier access to it.<br />
:<br />
:Right now, the only way for a user to view this page is as follows<br />
:<br />
:<kbd>https://micronations.wiki/wiki/His_Royal_Air_Force</kbd> &rarr; <kbd>https://micronations.wiki/wiki/His_Royal_Air_Force/bau</kbd>, but I would prefer to have it displayed in the :"Read this article in other languages" section.<br />

== Headline Newspaper Revision ==<br />
Hello! I’m concerned about the inactivity regarding the headlines section for the main page. Many newspapers from micronations are trying to put their news on the headlines section. Also, it seems unfair how no newspapers are added, yet 50% of the current (January 3, 2017) headlines are from ONE COUNTRY (Abeldane)!!! Currently, I’m also awaiting for the [[Andanian Times]] —> [[File:Andanian Times.png|85px]] <— to be reviewed for the headlines. Thank You! <br />
<br />
--[[User:PMaciasL|PMaciasL]] ([[User talk:PMaciasL|talk]]) 07:51, 3 January 2018 (UTC)<br />
:Hi there! Thanks for the message. I make it 37.5% (3/8) of stories about Abeldane, but that's over the course of over a fortnight; it'd be unfair to restrict their articles simply because some other nations aren't as active. The current applications have all been reviewed, but I'm sorry to say that I'm not sure the Andanian Times is quite up to scratch yet. There are only two articles on it so far: one is rather short, and the other doesn't actually seem to have any content other than a picture of an organization's logo. Remind me to have another look in a month or so, when there are more articles, and we'll go over it again.

== Yes, I think there is even more spam here ==<br />
<br />
Users such as [[User:TroyFournier22]] and [[User:LyleLabonte1]], and definitely a few more users are concerning me with possible spam. I know this isn't much, but I'm still asking you to check these accounts too. This is definitely the doings of a certain, or a number, of linked people. They have many characteristics in similar. <br />
-Have First name, Last name, and a simple number<br />
-Have an age, working at an education system on their user pages<br />
-Only contributions are the ones on their user page<br />
-Have a website on the bottom which leads to some useless stuff<br />
(And yes, I figured all that out)<br />
There might be more so-called "users" here that do the same thing.<br />

== Article Revision ==<br />
Hello Your Imperial Majesty! I would like a short revision of the [[Principality of Andany]] article. This is because I really want to know if it is good. Honestly, I’ve added as much original content as I can, so far. When you get the time, I would like to request a non-formal or formal (depending on what you want) revision. I picked you because you are nice when it comes to talking to. It’s quite a pleasure talking to you as well. Thank You very much!<br />
<br />
--[[User:PMaciasL|PMaciasL]] ([[User talk:PMaciasL|talk]]) 09:45, 6 January 2018 (UTC)<br />
:This article is certainly coming along nicely! Just a few suggestions I'd give you for improvement:<br />
#There are two templates at the top - "Principality of Andany" and "This article relates to the Principality of Andany" - which don't need to be there. ''We know'' this article is about Andany; it's in the name!<br />
#If Floris has a population of 5, Floriano has a population of 1, and the other states and cities have populations of 0, how does Andany have 8 residents?<br />
#In the "Foreign relations" section, the map claims you have embassies in France and Italy, but these aren't mentioned in the main text of the article.<br />
#I think the Ethnicity pie chart needs updating.<br />
#The Gallery at the bottom isn't really necessary; most of the image files there have already been used elsewhere in the article. At the very least, they should be captioned.<br />
#Please make sure to use the [[MicroWiki:Manual of style|Manual of style]], especially in regards to dates. E.g., use 9 January 2017 instead of January 9, 2017.<br />
::I hope this helps! [[User:Austenasia|Austenasia]] ([[User talk:Austenasia|talk]]) 09:22, 9 January 2018 (UTC)<br />
<br />
*Hello! Thank you very much for reviewing it! First of all, I appreciate the fact th you noticed the smallest of detail! Also, I need to update many facts, such as the residents. There are 8 residents and 1 is American and 1 is Russian. I would just need to update that throughout where that appears. Secondly, I also need to update the state populations! Thank you for noticing that. The “Gallery” at the bottom is only for reference to the images I need to use, though, I only need to copy the names down as the rest are used in at least 1 article. They will be removed, as in from the article. You’re also right about the style, as I don’t use it all the time, I need to get used to it when writing at MicroWiki. The style looks fancier too. About the embassy thing, I need to update the article about the new ones that aren’t recognized as of yet by the micronation of origin. Finally, I can’t thank you enough for review my article. Probably by early February, I might consider nominating my article to the Good Article status’s I know how to do it now... I’m sorry but I find it extremely amazing how someone in the U.K. is reading this, especially when it’s the site admin! I may sound annoying, but thank you very much for your time! Your feedback will help immensely when writing. Best wishes to you, Austenasia, and your family!<br />

== Flag Cup ==<br />
<br />
Pardon me, Emperor Jonathan, but would it be too much to ask for you to stop deleting and replacing the macronational flag files I am creating? I realize that many of them have duplicates, but at the same time I'm trying to simply streamline the process. Rather than have a file called "Flag of France" or "France1280px" or "FR-187459img" or other ridiculous notions, I'm attempting to upload the whole set of them as France1.png. This makes putting the data into brackets easier, and so I don't have to go running around trying to source a file. The files changing on me overnight was quite a shock, to say the least. When the Cup ends in mid-June, if you feel like cleaning up the mess I've made, I'll be a bit more for it. But for now, I ask that you leave the simple system I have be, or else replace other peoples files with my uploads instead. [[User:Suzuki|Suzuki]] ([[User talk:Suzuki|talk]]) 16:43, 26 January 2018 (UTC)<br />
<br />
Having looked over everything, I'm fine with it now. However, I do plan on re-uploading new versions of each file, just in case their are errors. I've noticed a number of flags have their colors off, or their proportions are severely misaligned. I'm also trying to get each file to have an established length, in this case the standard wikipedia length of 1280 pixels. I apologize for confusing you, but I'll try not to smash your site full of files in the future. [[User:Suzuki|Suzuki]] ([[User talk:Suzuki|talk]]) 17:04, 26 January 2018 (UTC)<br />
:I'm sorry Suzuki, I really hope I haven't disrupted it too much! Please do feel free to re-upload versions of the files if any are sub-standard. I've just been meaning to implement a standard "File:Flag of ###.png" format for flag files for months now, and having the flags of every macronation in the world linked to from a single page just seemed such a useful situation. [[User:Austenasia|Austenasia]] ([[User talk:Austenasia|talk]]) 17:37, 26 January 2018 (UTC)<br />
<br />
::Well, you didn't screw me up too much. Just a bit of a shock at first, but I quickly got over it! All of the flags have been replaced by the correct files directly from Wikipedia, and they are all in the correct galleries. I am now just waiting for Luxor to finish making the brackets, since that is quite a bit of coding that I don't feel confident in being able to type. And then, the Flag Cup begins next week! I'm pretty excited! [[User:Suzuki|Suzuki]] ([[User talk:Suzuki|talk]]) 17:09, 28 January 2018 (UTC)<br />

== Copyright Issues ==<br />
Greetings amazing Emperor Jonathan! I would like to address a copyright issue with one of my pictures. So on an News article made by ([[User:Sez]]), he placed the Andany 2018 Logo, except he put a Red Cross on it (basic defacement) and shamed two organizations. According to U.S. and Andanian Copyright Laws, it is unlawful to use a copyrighted image without permission from the owner (consent). He obviously forgot or something, as he thought “boycotting” the organizations was the best choice. Personally, members of a Discord (from which he recently expelled himself from) have also agreed that he is starting to act like a full on moderator compared to us. While you can’t control the chat, you do have the right to tell him to remove the copyrighted make image. Even on the uploaded image here in MicroWiki has the Andanian Copyright Template. Also, he tried posting his article on the “More news” page, but I undid that because an article shouldn’t have copyrighted images used without permission. Anyways, I hope I’m really not causing a disturbance to you and MicroWiki, though I do think that he ([[User:Sez]]) has gone far enough. Thank you very much!<br />

<br />
Thank you for taking the logo out, and I never said it was “‘Far enough’”. I’m saying you’re making false accusations towards two similar organizations. Also, I never stated that you don’t have the “right to criticize”. I might have said that you’re criticism is wrong, but I never said you couldn’t, though, it is wrong to critize incorrectly. It’s like saying that Danatia wasn’t founded on 30 December, even though it was. I hope you understand, and I also noticed Danatia is now Liber. I think that name is actually cool to be honest. Anyways, best wishes with LIBER!<br />

:If you're replacing a file with an updated image, it will take some time for the image to appear in the associated articles. The time it takes for this to occur can range from a week to a month, depending on how many images need to be replaced at any given time (there's a backlog). I've brought this matter a number of times myself to the staff, but it seems that this problem has no real solution other than to simply be patient and wait. However, if you're in a hurry, rather than replace a file, just upload a brand new file.

== Renaming [[John I of Baustralia]] ==<br />
<br />
Hello your Imperial Majesty,<br><br />
I was wondering if I could rename my page to John I instead of John I of Baustralia. I ask this because I feel that it would be biased for my page on the website to be John I of Baustralia and not John I of Wangatangia or Tentacion.<br />
<br><br><br />
Regards,<br><br />
His (Imperial) Majesty, [[John I of Baustralia|John I]] by the Grace of God of Baustralia, and the Dominions, [[Emperor of Tentacion]]<br />
:I would say there's too many John I's out there. Most people call Elizabeth II Queen of the UK, not queen of UK, Canada, ... [[User:Sez|Sez]] ([[User talk:Sez|talk]]) 23:14, 14 April 2018 (UTC)<br />
::On Wikipedia, the article of [[w:Elizabeth II|Elizabeth II]] is known simply as that, because in a similar way to John's reasoning, it would be biased to prioritize her sovereignty over the United Kingdom above that which she holds over Canada, Australia, New Zealand, etc. It's the same for her immediate predecessors, too. That being said, Sez has a good point; there are currently at least four other "John I"s with articles on MicroWiki, and in this situation disambiguation is the most important thing to ascertain. Baustralia remains, if I am correct, your primary realm and that with which you are most strongly associated, and so I think it best if that remain the article title. [[User:Austenasia|Austenasia]] ([[User talk:Austenasia|talk]]) 06:59, 15 April 2018 (UTC)<br />
:::I agree, sorry for the late reply. Even though there are four other John I's, I'm the only reigning one who's realms are active. For that reason, I've renamed it, once again, against your wishes, but I left a disambugation hatnote above.<br />
:::I hope you understand,<br />
:::His (Imperial) Majesty, [[John I of Baustralia|John I]] by the Grace of God of Baustralia, and the Dominions, [[Emperor of Tentacion]]<br />
:::'''EDIT''': You have said that Baustralia is my primary realm, I disagree. It may be the head of the other realms, I am active in all just the same. I personally consider all of my realms primary.<br />

Hello, <br />

Apologies, however I have an issue that seems to not take care of itself. <br />

An example of this is what I found on my talk page: "Stop editing the [[Republic of Lanzantonia]] or i will send 10 Generals of [[The People's Army of Lanzantonia]] to kill you." This coming from the user who created the "Republic Lanzantonia". Anyway, if this could be resolved by admins, I would be very gratful, thank you.<br />

== Page Deletion ==<br />
Greetings, your majesty. I have recently been involved with the [[Peoples Republic of Duke]] and other micronations. They aren't siding with my views or democratic ideologies, so I guess that gave them the right and reason to create a whole Twitter account hating on me and Andany. Also, they "created a batter Andany" in this page, [[Republic of Andany]]. I don't know what you think yet, but this looks like a puppet state made for attention. This started in Twitter, but now it's in MicroWiki. This is why I've decided to tell you. All they say is that they don't like how the current Andanian government "spreads lies" and "creates fake citizens", even though one person said they made many fake citizenship applications. The truth is that I'm the one tired of all this. I'm constantly bombarded with hate messages and trash talk about and to me, and no one seems to notice or care. I will ask you to try and deal with the MicroWiki page, but I think I'll handle the Twitter page. Thank you.<br />

This is a coalition of several people fed up with the currenct lies of the Andanian government. We have good intentions and we don't want lies in the Microwiki community. We are attempting peace and we are not vandalizing pablo's pages. Please understand that he has also made claims against us and tried to delete my flag for "Copyright" problems. I just want peace and for everyone to just chill and not lie. Also pablo has called me several cuss words on discord.<br />
<br />
Kind regards, Tom kap<br />

Your Majisty, <br />
<br />
We have been fid up of the lies and narsisim comeing from The reign of Pablo the 1st, As you may be aware he lied about the ufo sigting (red blood mon) and The recogntion of showell, Where he lives, and members of his government including Andanian oppestition leader ''Will Van Den Boom'' , His narsisim has been also a major problem, he gets relly angry when someone questions him or denies him of something, he also broken deals and when backed into a courner hw will pretend to help everyone so people will like him again but then later undo all of that, he has also made us stuff that we have used with out copyrighting it including the country balls he made that he said in his own words were 100% ours, hes also a hypocrite copying other people work to like his currunt coat of arms which is a copy of the propesed coa of New isreal, So for then we dicided that we had enough and had to stop this lying and narsiism plaging the micronational community , so we made The Republic of Andany, the twitter account was made to put propaganda on to try to convince people to join our cause but on eof us got a little bit to far and kinda turned it into a hate account, we hope that you do penalizes us and understand<br />
<br />
- Austin Jaax<br />
<br />
<br />
Your majesty,<br />
<br />
I do apologize for the tweets. I though believe Andany must stop. I questioned his rollercoaster and he got so angry and began accusing me of things. This has got to stop. I believe everyone in this conflict must be warned sternly as everyones behaviors where completely innapropriate in the Micronational Community. I hope that peace can happen and that this never happens again.He also calims my flag and coat of arms as copyright which it isn't.<br />
<br />
Kind Regards,Tom Kap<br />

:Iustus and Andanh have made a dale to introduce a new and more democratic position into the current Andanian Government. This will be called a Duceño or Duceña (depending on gender).

== Nomination for Good Articles ==<br />
Hello, I recently nominated an article (Empire of Barbettia) to be a good article. I was wondering how long I should wait before re-nomination, and if you have any advice on what I could do to improve our chances next time?<br />
Thank you,<br />
King James of the Empire of Barbettia<br />
::Hello there! Thanks for the message. Well, first off, the Introduction reads a bit like an advert; a nation can't have "big plans" or "believe" in certain concepts, and these statements would better apply to yourself, or to the Barbettian government. Mostly, reading through the article (now I want to try a rice samosa...), I think it's really just a matter of phrasing; there are a lot of short sentences which don't really flow well together. I've edited the first of the two main paragraphs in the "National Symbols" section to give you an example of what I mean. Other than that, there are just a few too many formatting mistakes (section headers should be in sentence case, "table tennis" and "golden eagle" shouldn't be capitalized, all dates should be in "10 September 2018" format, etc.). I hope this is helpful; have a go at improving the article yourself, focusing on what I pointed out, and I'll give it a few tweaks if I think it can still be improved.

Oh Austenasia, please check to the tweet that i just got from Belia on Twitter: "@Pr_Hashima NON CAMBIARE NIENTE SULLA NOSTRA PAGINA, COME NOI NON CAMBIAMO NIENTE SULLA VOSTRA. VAFFANCULO COGLIONI! ADDIO". He said to me, in italian, to don't change nothing on his page, as how he doesn't change nothing on mine. FUCK YOU ASSHOLES, GOODBYE.

Everyone is free to contribute to every article of this website. Of course, contribute following the rules of MicroWiki (exactly what you didn't, because you started several edit warring and several vandalism, reporting fake news and publishing accuses to several users, without evidences. Oh, i was almost forgetting, you also showed me your infinite education, insulting me on Twitter through your personal account, in matter about to property of your article). Rules that seems You completely don't know. I'm sorry, but i will continue to follow the rules, and i will continue to edit, in constructive way, every article that i can improve with my personal knowledge.

== Series of unconstructive edits ==<br />
<br />
Hello Mr.Jonathan,<br />
<br />
I'm contacting you in regards to the ''[[religion in micronationalism]]'' article. After you protected the religion template, that of which I am glad for, it appears that Markus II of [[New Israel]] has decided to go further by inserting counter-productive edits into the said article.<br />
<br />
He has not only added dubious information, but he has even made the monotheistic category broader than it already is. This person refuses to have other non-Christian yet Abrahamic/Semitic religions featured by the [[Apostolic Church of New Israel]], all due to his personal bias. This has been counted as bias because Abrahamic religions are defined as monotheistic religions of West Asian origin, emphasizing and tracing their common origin to Abraham (or recognizing a spiritual tradition identified with him).<br />
<br />
The input about several states choosing an established religion is unnecessary as well. That information was already provided in the third paragraph which states: "''In the micronational community, several individuals have formed their own religions. Most religions created in the micronational community are developed as serious attempts at alternative religions. Several are created in protest to already existing ones while some are developed as hobbies, or, in a similar way that a micronation is devoted to (developed merely for the sake of developing).''"<br />
<br />
It seems that he even dislikes the fact that definitions are placed in the monotheistic and polytheistic sections, especially when the definition of Abrahamic religions was added.<br />
<br />
I would like to request that you look into this situation, as for [[MicroWiki]] ought to be a source of truth, and not of personal, radical and/or prejudice religious bias.<br />
<br />
By the way, to further validate this conflict, we must refer to his talk page when he stated: "And, indeed, only Judaism and Christianity are recognized as having any legitimacy in my eyes and the eyes of the New Israeli church." This leads to the condemnation of bias as well, as for he only considers anything Judeo-Christian, or at least Orthodox or Catholic as being worthy forms of monotheism (or, Abrahamic traditions).<br />

Finally removal of the block,I unbelievable hacker really hacks on Microwiki last a few days when I knew the News of "Islamic State(Daesh)" hacks on Wiki. THANK YOU good choice given him an Infinite block and Safe our Microwiki in future .But the problem is we don't know how hacker got our IP address last monday ,we currently worries our page become threatened, if hacker use our IP again everyday,then we will can't be edit our page everyday yet ?!<br />
<br />
Secondly,Our page data really problem may be leaked out, if him(vandalist) is really terrorist or criminal hacker, his active is very seriously violated the rules.Hacker who was attempted to framed us got a temporary block last Monday. But it's unfair with us, we were no doing crime,but we got a temporary block that's hacker's plan . So please Emperor Jonathan I continues monitor the user CyberKLFH , prevent him vandalism ,and we needs to avoid get automatic block again.<br />
<br />
Thirdly, our page luckily no damage by vandalism hacker ,if Emperor did not block him our page will be next target ,because our nation also claim against Islamic State(Daesh). So I thanks for you again because you safe our page .I thinks the vandalism hacker who incomprehensible and unknown purpose ,may be him(Vandalist) hatred to us ,did you agree with me?<br />
<br />
Lastly, I hope Emperor need establish a new system to already block the vandalism hacker out of Microwiki, briefly vandalism hacker already cannot enter all pages of Microwiki. I was Written a warnings in our Conzorica page talk, please Emperor continues guard our page.<br />

:I'm not Jonathan, but I am an admin, and I'm going to have to say no to the Express at this time.

== News Deleted ==<br />
<br />
Hi, last night I posted under 'Other News' that the "Organization for Legitimacy Seeking Micro-States" was created to help micronations seeking recognition of sovereignty on the world stage. I also linked that line to the organization's new website. Today, I came by MicroWiki only to find that had been deleted. It was not posted under the area for approved publications only, nor did it contain any vulgarity or falsehoods. Can you please tell me why it was deleted?<br />
:Another user removed it, with "Advertising a website is not the same thing as a news article" given as his reason. To be fair, I'd say he's right; it wasn't a link to a news article, but to a website. It may be a better idea for you to post this on the forums.

== Questions regarding the overhauling of an article ==<br />
<br />
So, I've decided to completely overhaul the [[Starland Republic and New Pamlico]] wiki article, which I originally authored about 3 or 4 years ago. I'm attempting to get it in a state that it can become a contender for Good Article status, much like the [[Democratia of New Starland|DNS]] article. I have a few questions and requests regarding this revamping, the first of which is the naming of the article. The defunct micronation's name is officially the Starland Republic and New Pamlico, but after the founding of New Starland last year we've simply referred to the precursor as DSL-Starland. So, should the article be renamed DSL-Starland or should it maintain the name Starland Republic and New Pamlico? Also, since the article was created by me years ago, under a different (and lost) account, how can I go about reclaiming ownership of that article? Lastly, DSL-Starland was officially succeeded by the [[San Dover Kingdom|San Dover Queendom]], but I honestly consider this more of a spin-off of DSL-Starland than a separate entity, and have thus decided to include it's two week history somewhere in the revamped SR&NP article. Thus, I request a deletion of that article, since it will no longer be needed after the overhaul is finished. [[User:DNSgov|DNSgov]] ([[User talk:DNSgov|talk]]) 22:21, 23 July 2016 (BST)<br />
<br />
: Going along with the reasoning behind deleting the San Dover Queendom article and transferring its information in the revitalized SR&NP article, I've decided to do the same edits to the [[New Pamlico Federation]] article. This is because that micronation, although technically founded independently of DSL-Starland, is so intertwined with the Starland legacy that it would actually be more out of place with its own article than San Dover would. [[User:DNSgov|DNSgov]] ([[User talk:DNSgov|talk]]) 01:29, 24 July 2016 (BST)<br />
::For a historical micronation, you should call the article whatever its subject matter is most frequently referred to, so in this case DSL-Starland would be fine (although mention at the top of the article what the official name was). No articles are "owned" by anyone, so there's no issue in regards to your new account. Add a Deletion template to any article you no longer need once its information has been included elsewhere.

Since MicroWiki moved from its original website into this, I do think that the logo should be updated too.<br><br />
I took the permiss to draw one by myself, what I think could be a nice one, made by a mix of the most famous world's Micronations (from Austenasia to Westarctica, Hutt River, Sealand, Christiania, Seborga, etc...), with the shape of a world globe.<br><br />
Please find it attached to this my humble message.<br><br />

<br />
Hello, I'm Abigail Juneau (as you can see). I am here on behalf of the Michigan Upper Peninsula Micronational Union, formed by [[Grand Duke Liam]] or [[User:Liam.carignan|Liam]], I understand the issue you have with him and the mass amounts of incorrect literacy he used in his cites, however, as the Secretary-General of the MUPMU, I'd very much appreciate if you could possibly end his temporary ban? For simple diplomatic negotiations of course.<br />
<br />
Also, I'd like to put in that the IP address that I'm using at this moment is infact, '''MY''' home IP address, Liam used it before to create the micronation, it was a dual co-ownership until I split from the creation of the micronation and became an allied member. (This is just a given statement to inform you this is not his IP address.)<br />
<br />
Best regards,<br />

::He's been given a temporary block of two weeks. He was warned about inserting false information and behaving immaturely, but continued to do so. All he's done on the wiki is make pages with fake information and threaten "wars"; he was lucky the ban wasn't permanent. It won't be lifted early.

== Annoying You for the Second Time this Week ==<br />
<br />
Howdy, Jonathan. It's Suzuki again! A couple of things. First, I would like to inform you that [[Sunþrawegaz Kuningadōmas]] unilaterally recognizes the [[Empire of Austenasia]]. Usually I'd contact you via Skype to share this information, but I haven't been able to reach you from there for some time now. But, get back to me if you wish for our micronation's have a bilateral relationship. Secondly, I am no longer in [[Republic of Drew Star Line|DSL]]. I left that micronation because, quite frankly, I wasn't very happy there, and hadn't been for a long time. I would like to request that my username here on the wiki be changes from "DNSgov" to "Suzuki", to reflect my current (and definite future) standing. Giitu! [[User:DNSgov|DNSgov]] ([[User talk:DNSgov|talk]]) 19:47, 12 August 2017 (UTC)<br />

== Conflict Resolution ==<br />
<br />
Hello again, Emperor Jonathan. I am annoying you for the third time this week (has it been a week?), to ask your help in resolving a small wiki editing conflict that has come about. [[User:E.C Occitanie|E.C Occitanie]] has officially banned me from his country, as can be found in the article: [[List of people banned from entering Occitania]]. My problem is not with this fact (I could care less), but instead with this section right here:<br />
<br />
<small>so called</small> [[File:Sunþrawegaz Flag.png|25px]] [[Sunþrawegaz Kuningadōmas|Sunþrawegaz]]<br />
<br />
The part that gets me is the "so called" aspect of the term. I have removed this small part twice now, only to have it reverted by the Occitanian user. Which is why I'm asking for your advice on how to resolve this conflict. My reasoning behind having "so called" removed has been stated in both of my edits, and is as follows:<br />
<br />
"The micronation of Sunþrawegaz does not contain the words "so" and "called" within its official or common name, nor do those terms come about through proper translation from Proto-Germanic."<br />
<br />
It should be noted that I have been banned from entering [[Popular Union of Occitania|Occitania]] for claiming the Kerguelen Islands, for which this micronation believes is sovereign French territory that is not to be trespassed upon, and has labeled me as an apparently careless imbecile who is more concerned with territorial expansion then ecological preservation. I am assuming that this gentleman is not very familiar with how many micronational land claims overstep the boundaries of macronational interests. Either way, I would like to see the removal of "so called" from the aforementioned page, as I feel that it is besmirching to not just myself and [[Sunþrawegaz Kuningadōmas|Sunþrawegaz]], but to micronationalism as a whole. I do not feel that me and my project are any more or less "so called" then any other micronation in the community, including Occitania, and I believe anybody else here would agree with that sentiment. <br />
<br />
Thank you for your time, and I am hope that this won't cause you too much trouble. [[User:DNSgov|DNSgov]] ([[User talk:DNSgov|talk]]) 20:46, 15 August 2017 (UTC)<br />
<br />
:For consistency, I would also like to point out recent edits to the aforementioned page that have been made since my complain was lobbied to you. The first is the claim that I have made "massive editions on Occitanian pages in [[MicroWiki]]." This is entirely false, unless two edits on the same page worth 25 bites of information that apply to only two words are to be considered "massive." I'm pointing this out not because I believe the statement should be retracted, but because I believe it was done to delegitimize my argument for having "so called" removed from the same page. <br />
<br />
:The second point involves the usage of the term "so called." [[User:E.C Occitanie|E.C Occitanie]] claims that its usage, which was again added after this conflict resolution request was filed, as such:<br />
<br />
:''So called'' means that this micronation is [[Foreign relations of Occitania|not recognized]] by the Occitanian administration. This term is use as diplomatic decorum. <br />
<br />
:I believe first and foremost that the very fact [[Sunþrawegaz Kuningadōmas|Sunþrawegaz]] is even on this list proves that [[Popular Union of Occitania|Occitania]] does not recognize my micronation, so the point is moot. Secondly, that information can be found on the page [[Foreign relations of Occitania]], under section 3.4. This attempt at making a "point" is nothing more than an attempt to legitimize a term I believe is entirely uncalled for. If any more similar edits are made, I will make you aware of them as they progress until this conflict is resolved.<br />
<br />
:Once again, I thank you for your time, Emperor Jonathan, and I hope that this hasn't become a bother for you. [[User:DNSgov|DNSgov]] ([[User talk:DNSgov|talk]]) 21:37, 15 August 2017 (UTC)<br />

<br />
:::Apparently [[User:E.C Occitanie|E.C Occitanie]] still does not understand the meaning of the phrase: "On MicroWiki, though, all micronations are equal." The user has loop-holed around the "so called" term and has now put Sunþrawegaz in quotation marks and in italic font. Again, I hate bothering you with this somewhat trivial stuff, but believe you me, this guy has been hounding me about Sunþrawegaz since Saturday, and if I am to get anything out of my less-then-enjoyable dealings with this user, I would like to at least maintain some of Sunþrawegōz integrity. And that integrity includes the correct and unbiased referencing of my micronation.<br />
<br />
:::Again, I thank you for your time, and I apologize that this matter has not been fully resolved sooner then either of us had intended. [[User:Suzuki|Suzuki]] ([[User talk:Suzuki|talk]]) 13:06, 16 August 2017 (UTC)<br />
<br />
::::It would seem that my complaints to you have been heard by [[User:E.C Occitanie|E.C Occitanie]], as upon my last message he almost immediately removed the quotation marks and the italics, and has gone about and made an unbiased color-coded system for identifying the nations on that list of his. This I have no problems with, however I will keep you informed if these appreciable edits are reverted. [[User:Suzuki|Suzuki]] ([[User talk:Suzuki|talk]]) 13:15, 16 August 2017 (UTC)<br />
<br />
:::::The formatting that was agree-able to both parties continues to be edited in a biased manner by both [[User:Mahuset|Mahuset]] and [[User:E.C Occitanie|E.C Occitanie]]. The agree-able formatting, which I have told the Occitanian President I have no qualms with, involved the usage of a color-coded table to show that Occitania does not recognize Sunþrawegaz, a true and unbiased fact. However, within hours of this revision, this formatting was abandoned in favor of claiming that I am an American citizen. This is false, as I denounced my citizenry in July 2015 in a display of my commitment to the [[Republic of Drew Star Line|Raoul Commune]], a fact that can be confirmed by several members of this community, including the leaders of Aarbaro and Zenrax. Although I still currently reside in the United States, and I doubt the US authorities believe I am a foreign national, I have yet to publicly reclaim my American citizenship. As such, the only nation I am a citizen of is Sunþrawegaz, and this article must reflect that.<br />
<br />
:::::I have twice now reverted it back to the agreed-upon formatting, only to have Mahuset change it wrongly back to the statistic that I am an American and not a Sunþrawegoz. According to Mahuset, the reason behind showcasing me as an American citizen on the list is because the article is from the perspective of the Occitanian government. I was under the impression that the MicroWiki should always display unbiased information, and not from the single perspective from any one micronation, and I voiced my belief in that in both of my reverts. <br />
<br />
:::::I am sorry that this has not yet been resolved, but I hope that this issue has not put a damper on your own activities. [[User:Suzuki|Suzuki]] ([[User talk:Suzuki|talk]]) 16:56, 17 August 2017 (UTC)<br />
<br />
::::::I ''am'' updating it to what amounts to unbiased information, take the British equivalent to the article on Wikipedia ( [[w:List of people banned from entering the United Kingdom]] and you'll see what I mean. The list is maintained and upheld by individuals from the Occitanian government and refers to information as interpreted by such, the easiest example I can name is articles on the Olympics where Taiwan is called "Chinese Taipei" because that's what the IOC (the governing authority of said subject) regards it to be instead of the actual Taiwan or Republic of China. Besides that, it's not only funny but completely ironic that you start an edit war on a page mentioning you as harassing the original author, because by that you have completely proven him to be right in his convictions. --Emiel Sebastiaan Hardy<br />

<br />
:::::::Firstly, your example doesn't compute. How one refers to Taiwan has no standing relevance when I am talking about what country I am not a citizen of. Secondly, this is a conflict between myself and Occitania, to be mediated by the administration team. You are not me, you are not part of Occitania, and you are not an administrator, so why you have decided to involve yourself in this is beyond me. Thirdly, you don't know how this began and you don't know why I've been banned from Occitania. They can ban me from entering their micronation for whatever reason they see fit, but the truth of the matter is they have a problem with Sunþrawegaz claiming the Kerguelen Islands, and I have flat our refused to drop those claims. If anybody has actually been harassed, it has been me and Emperor Thomas, as both of us have had to deal with the full brunt of attacks on something as trivial as claiming land, something all micronations do, and something only a few are able to control in the first place.<br />
<br />
:::::::This website is designed to showcase unbiased information on micronationalism. Being unbiased includes not professing to falsehoods, like the falsehood that I am American citizen. I gave that up a while ago, and I have not looked back on it. But I will not stand for somebody I have never met, and quite frankly I have only been aware even existed for less then a week, telling not just me but the whole world who I am (or in this am not). No, I will stop until this "edit war" until me and Sunþrawegaz are properly represented in an unbiased manner on this site. I was perfectly happy with the changes made yesterday, the ones you keep deleting, as it was unbiased and not false. All I ask is for the page to revert to that and not be changed by people like you who are completely unaware of the situation. [[User:Suzuki|Suzuki]] ([[User talk:Suzuki|talk]]) 18:24, 17 August 2017 (UTC)<br />
<br />
<br />
::::::::I just wanted to inform you that as far as I can tell, the conflict has exhausted itself out. Since I've changed Sunþrawegaz's purpose, I really no longer see any of this as being an issue. An annoyance, maybe. But at least an ignorable annoyance. Didn't know if you were still working in the background on this one, but nothing has come up from it on my end for a couple of weeks now. So, I guess it's "conflict resolved." And again, thank you for your help. [[User:Suzuki|Suzuki]] ([[User talk:Suzuki|talk]]) 22:07, 28 August 2017 (UTC)<br />

== RE: ""Split"" ==<br />
<br />
To clarify -<br />
<br />
Yes, we are much smaller than the GUM Community, which has around sixty or seventy people. At present, The Monarchist Republic has eighteen people, and the MAFE has eleven. However, that is by no means 'just me'. I understand that you probably feel we are being ridiculous, affording ourself undeserved status, insulting the values of the old community, and behaving childishly, but that is no reason to lower yourself to insulting us and deleting our pages. I understand that you do not recognise it and that many people do not, but this is not a reason to delete the pages. Describing them as "[p]atent nonsense... pages that contain no meaningful content" is just rude and not a proper application of the policy.<br />
<br />
I understand that you don't think we have managed to achieve anything here. However, for us, one active chatroom with nearly twenty members and an ongoing recruitment process on the forums is better than we hoped for. If you do not want to recognise it as a major event, go ahead. But you have no reasonable grounds for deleting the pages or for showing the lack of respect you have done in your messages. I'm happy to level with you and admit that yes, we're a small community. But the accusation that "we both know it's just you" is arrogant and rude at a level that definitely outstrips trying to create MicroWiki pages on the subject that even acknowledge some people's questioning of its legitimacy.<br />
<br />
Therefore, consider me to be contesting this deletion, and more personally asking for you to discuss this with me like a sensible diplomat.<br />
<br />

<br />
: Here's my opinion on the whole thing: Up until yesterday, I heard absolutely nothing about a so-called "community split." I'm neither a part of the GUM, nor a part of the Old Guard, and yet I use the MicroWiki forums. As far as I know, almost everyone there does. Yes, you might be considered another '''part''' of the community, and you might actually be successful in recruiting members from the forums to your cause. But until this new sect gains its own actual identity and is able to pull from literally just one source for its member base, I think it would be still considered as still very much a part of the larger MicroWiki community in general. I don't see any signs of this "split" manifesting itself on the prominent Skype chats. <br />
<br />
<br />
: I don't see much of anything of that nature happening on the Forums. I'm literally about as much of an "Establishment Outsider" as it gets -- Zenrax hardly shares its citizens with others, for one. Now, if we start seeing an actual split of the community like what happened before my time with this whole Wikia / Wiki business, then I'll eat my words and say "You know what, this guy has a really good point." For now though, it might be best to promote your ideals from within the community as it exists, to change it for the better. Trying to get people to funnel themselves into an artificial "in or out" scenario will only come back to haunt people.<br />

<br />
:: Just to clarify regarding the Skype chats, that's actually the main area this has taken place - i.e. the centre of our group is a seperate Skype chatroom and we, at least most of us, left other groups like the RF. The only micronational chatrooms I am in now relate to the new community or individual micronations, and I know the same is true for several other people.<br />
<br />
:: We don't have our own wiki, partially due to financial constrainsts and partially because we never wanted to leave MicroWiki itself. We always wanted to be a parallel aspect of the MicroWiki community and function as parrallel to the traditional set of Skype chatrooms. Johnathan has decided that this is a figment of my imagination and does not want to recognise it. Truth be told, yes I am the only one focussing on creating wiki articles for it, but that's at least in part because other people predicted we would have them deleted. I just want John to let me create the pages and fill them with realistic information, which he can of course check himself to see if it reflects reality, and then be on my way. I was optimistic enough never to expect this discussion to take place, and I would just like to create factual wiki pages on the existence of our smaller sub-community, the circumstances by which we came about and the criticisms we face. <br />

<br />
:::: The MicroWiki community is, by definition, those who use the MicroWiki. And so, while you can claim as much as you'd like that there has been a "split" in the community, a separate Skype chatroom doesn't define that. I've heard of a few of your members and to my knowledge at least several of them are still very involved in the goings-on in the community's core chatrooms. This, in essence, is what Jonathan is saying - there has been no split, and this "New Community" you speak of is - at best - another sector of the MicroWiki community. At worst, I suppose, you could say all it is would be a Skype chatroom.<br />
<br />
::::The main points for your "split" aside (a territory I could speak further about, perhaps another time), I do see the point Jonathan has made. And I'd say it's fair, more so now that you've specifically agreed with it by saying that you "always wanted to be a parallel aspect of the MicroWiki community." And let me make one last side-step to say that [https://theglastieven.wordpress.com/2017/08/27/johnathan-austen-refuses-to-allow-wiki-article-on-the-new-community-claiming-that-it-does-not-exist/ making this here news article is in no way going to help convince the MicroWiki site owner of your case].

:::::I'm going to put my two cents in here. I am the infamous Suzuki, and I can tell you straight up that I'm probably one of the most hated members of the MicroWiki community. However, despite the loathing, I still love and respect this community. Why? Because this place doesn't have a "leader." Sure, Emperor Jonathan owns the domain. But he is so lenient on things. I've been a member of this community on and off since 2012 (before Jonathan even became the owner of this site), as well as being a very inactive member of three more micronational communities. And I can tell you that only in this community will you find the owner not try to influence the micronations that flock to their domain. Jonathan is the most fair community leader, and the most unassuming. I feel that your "New Community" is both trying to harm this man's image (which I can tell you from experience is very much an impossibility), as well as an attempt by yourself to influence other micronations, which I abhorrently despise. [[User:Suzuki|Suzuki]] ([[User talk:Suzuki|talk]]) 22:32, 28 August 2017 (UTC)<br />
<br />
::::::I'm back for more! Just a couple of points I want to make on this "New Community." Firstly, if it's just a Skype chatroom, you can't really call it a community. I run the Skype group Drunkiz Gadurō and it has representatives from 15 micronations there. Can I call the Drunkiz Gadurō a community? No, not really, at least it's no more or less a community than other micronationalist Skype groups out there, like Yellow Bear and the Flagon. Every true community I've been apart of, from the two incarnations of the MicroWiki (I've been around since before the switch in 2013), to the Wikia, to "Mr. Twain's Neighborhood" (which I think I'm the last active user on), and they all have an actual website, an organized forum, and two of them have a wikipedia-styled main site that contain various articles on various aspects of various micronations. Until the "New Community" has that, I don't think you can call yourself a micronational community of any kind.<br />
<br />
::::::My second point is this: the only successful split in this community that I am aware of, and Emperor Thomas of Zenrax alluded to, is the MicroWikia (which again, I'm also a user on). Nowhere on that site have I seen an outpouring of information on the Wiki-Wikia split, which you also won't find here either. The only reason I'm even aware of it is because I knew a user (Jackson Alexander) who was there when it happened. And as information on that split is lacking, I can assume that it wasn't article worthy, meaning that the split was never the end-all-be-all of the MicroWiki or the MicroWikia's history. Also, many people are users on both the Wiki and the Wikia, including Emperor Jonathan, who is an admin on the Wikia! Anyways, my point here is that community splits happen; they've happened before, and the'll happened again. But none of the previous splits have ever been article worthy, and unless a legit war breaks out over a split, it will continue to never happen.<br />
<br />
::::::Just a side comment that I though of whilst typing: if you're so against this community, then why do you continue to use this community's wiki and forums?<br />

Hey -<br />
<br />
With a due sense of exhaustion and dread, could I ask what policy other than "I'm in charge and I don't like you" gives you permisssion to remove both of my news articles from the main page, including the one unrelated to the edit summary you gave regarding the reversion? Come on here John, you're just proving me and the other people who won't take you seriously right. I'd love to be able to go back to my micronation and write a news article announcing that I was all wrong and you're perfectly reasonable and easy to work with, but when you exchange merely disagreeing with me for taking childish swipes, it gets really difficult to be unconvinced of the notion that you're abusing your power and are taking this all personally (and are therefore not likely to be open to compromise or even reasoned disvussion). Come on, I've asked once before, although you didn't respond. Are you there, John? Can we discuss this politely and reach a situation where we're both able to work with each other and where we're on the same page about the New Community?<br />

::::I've not read the article in question, but I do wonder why if he has references that he is not alone in "separating" he isn't allowed to make at least an article on the wiki about that.

::::::This categorically isn't a non-biased wiki, John has himself stated that. In essence, because he and the admins of the wiki do not want to allow two communities to use the website, they are expressly forbidding me to make any reference to the New Community on the wiki, in essence. Although I would argue that factual reporting is not the same as 'advertising', I somewhat doubt that anybody will listen to me, given that as far as I can tell, 'the administrators say so' is a perfectly valid substitute for adherence to policies and guidelines on the website.<br />

::::::I am going to recreate one page with the title 'New Community' ([[New Community]]), as my contest of the deletion was ignored, and I will keep the page to factual reporting, not to "promote or advertise" the cause, as the administrators have forbidden. If John would like to follow his own policies and be fair, I would recommend he responds to my contest (or responds here), or edits the page to remove any content he believes to be untrue or advertising. Deleting the entire page a third time is against your own policies, and I implore you to continue the trend you have started by finally replying to me and deal with this reasonably.<br />

:::::::This shouldn't have to be said, but it's apparent that it has to be. MicroWiki is '''not''' a democracy. The MicroWiki costs £160 per year from Jonathan's own pocket, and its ridiculous for you to think you can use the site that he pays for to promote "breaking away" from the community. Jonathan is lax on most things, but I don't expect him to allow you to attempt to tear the community in two using the site that he pays for, and quite frankly you shouldn't expect that either. And let me second what Jonathan said earlier in this thread: this is not just him. He has consulted the admins, myself included, and we have all come to this conclusion. Moreover, I should point out how childish it is of you to go ahead and make the [[New Community]] page again, against the orders of the administration. In fact, that's pretty much against the rules in itself. The point here, all in all, is that you shouldn't get to use the MicroWiki to promote breaking away from the MicroWiki. Fairly simple if you ask me. [[User:Twain|Twain]] ([[User talk:Twain|talk]]) 17:09, 29 August 2017 (UTC)<br />
::::::::I don't see how making a page is promotion, that is to say, if the page wasn't promotion but factual representation of events.

:::::::::Very well; I've edited the page to reflect the facts as they've been made known to myself and the other admins. However, as Twain rightly said, you are not to use MicroWiki to promote the breaking away from MicroWiki. The maintenance of community cohesion is one of the main duties of the admin team; that's not "propaganda", that's simply trying to make sure we all get along. The fostering of baseless rivalries and divisions will not be tolerated. I don't know how much clearer we can be.

:::::::::::Jonathan, as someone from Glastieve who has been following the proceedings and feels a neutral voice could help you to see it from a rational perspective I would like to point out a number of problems I have with the New Community article. First, Mark has gone into great detail regarding his reasons for founding the New Community in this document: https://docs.google.com/document/d/13YsSTWjizW4YEmTmzXCk2buYXvrLiSJGXkDrEei18SM/edit?usp=sharing. Second, a combination of 'condemnation, indifference, or humour' can hardly be described as 'near-unanimous' since unanimity requires all parties to share '''one''' stance and three have clearly been shown. Third, Mark is not the only member, there are currently around 20 members, maybe more if you count affiliated citizens of nations such as Nedland, Glastieve or Masuhet. Fourth, I would appreciate you not accusing Glastieve of 'self-aggrandizement' through the New Community as members of both communities are individuals not countries and this was an entirely independent venture.<br />

::::::::::::How is it nobody in this "New Community" can spell Emperor Jonathan's name? I mean, for [expletive]'s sake, it's all over the website, and after I post this, his name appears 28 times in this Talk page alone, just for copy-and-pasting! I don't know if this is to "get back" at Jonathan, but your "New Community" really sows seeds of doubt in GUM-haters of the MicroWiki community such I myself as to the legitimacy of your so-called "split." Is typing eight letters in sequence really that hard, or do you just appreciate looking idiotic? [[User:Suzuki|Suzuki]] ([[User talk:Suzuki|talk]]) 00:09, 30 August 2017 (UTC)<br />

:::::::::::::Sorry, that was a typo, also I am not properly a member of either community so my actions can not be considered an example of the members' behaviour. I would also like to point out that me and Kavanah should not be mocked for misspelling Jonathan's name when it is already on the page in question, given that Jonathan cannot spell my name when it is on the page in question. Besides, if a significant chunk of your counter argument relies on attacking our orthography then there's something wrong with it.<br />

I created this [[Template:16TeamBracket|template]], based upon the [[w:Template:16TeamBracket|Wikipedia]] version. I need it for the [[User:Suzuki/Nedland-Sunþrawegaz Flag Contest|Nedland-Sunþrawegaz Flag Contest]]. But for some reason an odd error occured: "Template loop detected: Template:16TeamBracket." Firstly, what does this mean? And secondly: HELP!!! [[User:Suzuki|Suzuki]] ([[User talk:Suzuki|talk]]) 07:52, 3 September 2017 (UTC)<br />

== Page Deletion ==<br />
<br />
:I would like to again request, personally as content creator and officially on behalf of the confederal government, that all of the pages related to Delvera and its predecessors which I marked for deletion about 20 days ago be removed from the wiki. Thank you. [[User:Sarky|Sarky]] ([[User talk:Sarky|talk]]) 20:57, 28 September 2017 (UTC)<br />
<br />
::My original deletions were based off the articles I could find, primarily from your Navbox and categories. Those articles were not in the resources I could find, and I remember specifically asking that we be notified if there are more articles that I missed, and that would've been much preferred than to quietly add deletion templates. My apologies for not seeing the additions, it should be taken care of now. {{Template:Twain Signature}} 4:42 29 September 2017 (UTC)<br />
<br />
:::Thank you for complying with the request, though for the record I would like to point out that some of the articles in question were in the navbox and nearly all of them were in the Grand Republic of Delvera category. Further, I specifically mentioned that I marked our remaining articles for deletion on the talk page of the main Delvera page before it was deleted, thus they were included in my original request of September 9. I never received a message asking if any other articles needed removal, but Consul Callahan did and recalls replying that there were indeed more articles. <br />
<br />
:::On another note, the reason I "quietly" marked the articles is that I did not want to cause any further outrage or accompanying censorship and in fact believed that I was following proper wiki procedure as per the deletion policy. I am left to wonder how long articles sit in the deletion queue without appropriate action. But I suppose this is no longer any concern of mine.<br />

== Problems with Image Uploading ==<br />
<br />
Hello Emperor Jonathan. It's you're favorite person to be bothered by! I'm pretty sure this would have to be something to forward to your tech team about, but I have been running into this same problem over and over again. If I go to upload a new version of a file, the new version will never, ever show up in its image form. This has been a problem for a few months now, and my way around it has always been to just upload a brand new file. However, this is inconvenient when the file that needs replacing is utilized by several articles. In this case Zenrax's flag. Within a half hour or so of jotting down my concerns here, I uploaded Zenrax's updated flag to replace the old file. But, although it registers the upload as successful, all of the articles this file belongs to showcase only the old flag. I thought maybe waiting for a bit, or refreshing my internet, would help solve the problem (if it was on my end). But still nothing. So, I've decided to bring this up to you, just in case it is a recurring problem with the data here, so that way you and your team can look into it. Thank you (yet again) for your time. [[User:Suzuki|Suzuki]] ([[User talk:Suzuki|talk]]) 07:11, 25 October 2017 (UTC)<br />
<br />

==[[:Category:Articles marked for deletion]] and [[:Category:Articles marked for speedy deletion]]==<br />
The sheer number of articles on the Microwiki that should have been deleted long ago is staggering; could we appoint a quick taskforce to speedy/otherwise delete these articles that have been waiting months for "Eritreans of Nedland" to be deleted? It clogs up the Wiki so fast that it becomes cumbersome for newcomers to navigate the site and find anything of actual value when we're inundated with nonsense and ego-flattering nonsense. I know Cip is an administrator, but I'm not sure individual articles are needed for each plush toy he owns... [[User:ILoveNy|ILoveNy]] ([[User talk:ILoveNy|talk]]) 04:08, 27 October 2017 (UTC)<br />

::Update, honestly I'm an admin on WMF - if you want, I could take on the job myself and limit my admin tasks to purely janitorial.

:::Hi there! Unfortunately, a lot of articles marked for deletion shouldn't really be marked as such. The admins will be going through them soon; thanks for the prompt!

:::Never spoken to, or heard of you, before. I've had a decades-long interest in micronations (with a bias towards brick and mortar, of course) but never been in one...and a...egad, almost decades-long involvement with WMF (Wikimedia Foundation, Wikipedia, Commons, etc) and really just want to help clean up this wiki because it's overwhelmingly full of information on...things bordering on patent nonsense. And while I'm sure there's a place for the post-2011 wave of "new" micronations, I'd love to see information on, let us say Cip's plush animals, consolidated into a single article so that visitors and newcomers (as one myself, to this wiki at least) are not completely overwhelmed by the...less than professional idea that micronations only exist as online RPGs in peoples' minds, but can see the wide variety, easily sorted and categorised - allowing them to delve into that which interests them. Because honestly, the guys at North Dumpling Island or Sealand aren't likely to care about what's going on in MyLivingRoomStan, and similarly, MyLivingRoomStan is unlikely to care about what's going on at Sealand...so helping to just divide ''this site'' into better-categorised and sorted arenas would really help. <br />
<br />
::::Per the "shouldn't be marked for deletion", many of them have been thus marked without even their creators objecting and removing the tag in months...many months. At that point, I feel it's probably worth assuming the article text is better '''merged''' into another existing article so that it will at least be ''read'' at some point.

Hello! I’m concerned about the inactivity regarding the headlines section for the main page. Many newspapers from micronations are trying to put their news on the headlines section. Also, it seems unfair how no newspapers are added, yet 50% of the current (January 3, 2017) headlines are from ONE COUNTRY (Abeldane)!!!

The current applications have all been reviewed, but I'm sorry to say that I'm not sure the Andanian Times is quite up to scratch yet. There are only two articles on it so far: one is rather short, and the other doesn't actually seem to have any content other than a picture of an organization's logo.

Users such as [[User:TroyFournier22]] and [[User:LyleLabonte1]], and definitely a few more users are concerning me with possible spam.

-Have First name, Last name, and a simple number<br />
-Have an age, working at an education system on their user pages<br />
-Only contributions are the ones on their user page<br />

#There are two templates at the top - "Principality of Andany" and "This article relates to the Principality of Andany" - which don't need to be there. ''We know'' this article is about Andany; it's in the name!<br />
#If Floris has a population of 5, Floriano has a population of 1, and the other states and cities have populations of 0, how does Andany have 8 residents?<br />
#In the "Foreign relations" section, the map claims you have embassies in France and Italy, but these aren't mentioned in the main text of the article.<br />
#I think the Ethnicity pie chart needs updating.<br />
#The Gallery at the bottom isn't really necessary; most of the image files there have already been used elsewhere in the article. At the very least, they should be captioned.<br />
#Please make sure to use the [[MicroWiki:Manual of style|Manual of style]], especially in regards to dates. E.g., use 9 January 2017 instead of January 9, 2017.<br />

There are 8 residents and 1 is American and 1 is Russian. I would just need to update that throughout where that appears. Secondly, I also need to update the state populations! Thank you for noticing that. The “Gallery” at the bottom is only for reference to the images I need to use, though, I only need to copy the names down as the rest are used in at least 1 article. They will be removed, as in from the article. You’re also right about the style, as I don’t use it all the time, I need to get used to it when writing at MicroWiki. The style looks fancier too. About the embassy thing, I need to update the article about the new ones that aren’t recognized as of yet by the micronation of origin. Finally, I can’t thank you enough for review my article. Probably by early February, I might consider nominating my article to the Good Article status’s I know how to do it now... I’m sorry but I find it extremely amazing how someone in the U.K. is reading this, especially when it’s the site admin! I may sound annoying, but thank you very much for your time! Your feedback will help immensely when writing. Best wishes to you, Austenasia, and your family!<br />

== Flag Cup ==<br />
<br />
Pardon me, Emperor Jonathan, but would it be too much to ask for you to stop deleting and replacing the macronational flag files I am creating? I realize that many of them have duplicates, but at the same time I'm trying to simply streamline the process. Rather than have a file called "Flag of France" or "France1280px" or "FR-187459img" or other ridiculous notions, I'm attempting to upload the whole set of them as France1.png. This makes putting the data into brackets easier, and so I don't have to go running around trying to source a file. The files changing on me overnight was quite a shock, to say the least. When the Cup ends in mid-June, if you feel like cleaning up the mess I've made, I'll be a bit more for it. But for now, I ask that you leave the simple system I have be, or else replace other peoples files with my uploads instead. [[User:Suzuki|Suzuki]] ([[User talk:Suzuki|talk]]) 16:43, 26 January 2018 (UTC)<br />
<br />
Having looked over everything, I'm fine with it now. However, I do plan on re-uploading new versions of each file, just in case their are errors. I've noticed a number of flags have their colors off, or their proportions are severely misaligned. I'm also trying to get each file to have an established length, in this case the standard wikipedia length of 1280 pixels. I apologize for confusing you, but I'll try not to smash your site full of files in the future. [[User:Suzuki|Suzuki]] ([[User talk:Suzuki|talk]]) 17:04, 26 January 2018 (UTC)<br />
:I'm sorry Suzuki, I really hope I haven't disrupted it too much! Please do feel free to re-upload versions of the files if any are sub-standard. I've just been meaning to implement a standard "File:Flag of ###.png" format for flag files for months now, and having the flags of every macronation in the world linked to from a single page just seemed such a useful situation. [[User:Austenasia|Austenasia]] ([[User talk:Austenasia|talk]]) 17:37, 26 January 2018 (UTC)<br />
<br />
::Well, you didn't screw me up too much. Just a bit of a shock at first, but I quickly got over it! All of the flags have been replaced by the correct files directly from Wikipedia, and they are all in the correct galleries. I am now just waiting for Luxor to finish making the brackets, since that is quite a bit of coding that I don't feel confident in being able to type. And then, the Flag Cup begins next week! I'm pretty excited! [[User:Suzuki|Suzuki]] ([[User talk:Suzuki|talk]]) 17:09, 28 January 2018 (UTC)<br />

== Copyright Issues ==<br />
Greetings amazing Emperor Jonathan! I would like to address a copyright issue with one of my pictures. So on an News article made by ([[User:Sez]]), he placed the Andany 2018 Logo, except he put a Red Cross on it (basic defacement) and shamed two organizations. According to U.S. and Andanian Copyright Laws, it is unlawful to use a copyrighted image without permission from the owner (consent). He obviously forgot or something, as he thought “boycotting” the organizations was the best choice. Personally, members of a Discord (from which he recently expelled himself from) have also agreed that he is starting to act like a full on moderator compared to us. While you can’t control the chat, you do have the right to tell him to remove the copyrighted make image. Even on the uploaded image here in MicroWiki has the Andanian Copyright Template. Also, he tried posting his article on the “More news” page, but I undid that because an article shouldn’t have copyrighted images used without permission. Anyways, I hope I’m really not causing a disturbance to you and MicroWiki, though I do think that he ([[User:Sez]]) has gone far enough. Thank you very much!<br />

<br />
Thank you for taking the logo out, and I never said it was “‘Far enough’”. I’m saying you’re making false accusations towards two similar organizations. Also, I never stated that you don’t have the “right to criticize”. I might have said that you’re criticism is wrong, but I never said you couldn’t, though, it is wrong to critize incorrectly. It’s like saying that Danatia wasn’t founded on 30 December, even though it was. I hope you understand, and I also noticed Danatia is now Liber. I think that name is actually cool to be honest. Anyways, best wishes with LIBER!<br />

==Problems with wiki and images==<br />
Hello, I have an issue whereby whenever I upload a new version of an image then the image does not update in the pages that it is. I am just asking if you have any knowledge of this problem, is it problem on just wiki or my personal device? --[[File:F1 green flag.png|25px|border|link=Union of Islamic Micronations]] [[User:OIMGov|OIMGov]] ([[User talk:OIMGov|talk]]) 17:34, 14 March 2018 (UTC)<br />
<br />
:If you're replacing a file with an updated image, it will take some time for the image to appear in the associated articles. The time it takes for this to occur can range from a week to a month, depending on how many images need to be replaced at any given time (there's a backlog). I've brought this matter a number of times myself to the staff, but it seems that this problem has no real solution other than to simply be patient and wait. However, if you're in a hurry, rather than replace a file, just upload a brand new file. For some reason doing that doesn't take several days, but seconds, to process.[[User:Suzuki|Suzuki]] ([[User talk:Suzuki|talk]]) 20:21, 14 March 2018 (UTC)<br />

== Renaming [[John I of Baustralia]] ==<br />
<br />
Hello your Imperial Majesty,<br><br />
I was wondering if I could rename my page to John I instead of John I of Baustralia. I ask this because I feel that it would be biased for my page on the website to be John I of Baustralia and not John I of Wangatangia or Tentacion.<br />
<br><br><br />
Regards,<br><br />
His (Imperial) Majesty, [[John I of Baustralia|John I]] by the Grace of God of Baustralia, and the Dominions, [[Emperor of Tentacion]]<br />

::On Wikipedia, the article of [[w:Elizabeth II|Elizabeth II]] is known simply as that, because in a similar way to John's reasoning, it would be biased to prioritize her sovereignty over the United Kingdom above that which she holds over Canada, Australia, New Zealand, etc. It's the same for her immediate predecessors, too. That being said, Sez has a good point; there are currently at least four other "John I"s with articles on MicroWiki, and in this situation disambiguation is the most important thing to ascertain. Baustralia remains, if I am correct, your primary realm and that with which you are most strongly associated, and so I think it best if that remain the article title. [[User:Austenasia|Austenasia]] ([[User talk:Austenasia|talk]]) 06:59, 15 April 2018 (UTC)<br />
:::I agree, sorry for the late reply. Even though there are four other John I's, I'm the only reigning one who's realms are active. For that reason, I've renamed it, once again, against your wishes, but I left a disambugation hatnote above.<br />

== Good Article Submission ==<br />
Hello, Your Majesty! I'd like to make it a notice for you reguarding the '''[[Principality of Andany]]''' Good Article submission. I nominated the article over a month ago, even though it says the process should only take seven days. Can you please make the final decision? Thank you ''very'' much!<br />

:Terribly sorry! As you can probably tell from the archive, it does often take more than seven days for admins to get round to it, but if we keep telling ourselves it should be done in a week then we may eventually get round to it!

== Page Deletion ==<br />
Greetings, your majesty. I have recently been involved with the [[Peoples Republic of Duke]] and other micronations. They aren't siding with my views or democratic ideologies, so I guess that gave them the right and reason to create a whole Twitter account hating on me and Andany. Also, they "created a batter Andany" in this page, [[Republic of Andany]]. I don't know what you think yet, but this looks like a puppet state made for attention. This started in Twitter, but now it's in MicroWiki. This is why I've decided to tell you. All they say is that they don't like how the current Andanian government "spreads lies" and "creates fake citizens", even though one person said they made many fake citizenship applications. The truth is that I'm the one tired of all this. I'm constantly bombarded with hate messages and trash talk about and to me, and no one seems to notice or care. I will ask you to try and deal with the MicroWiki page, but I think I'll handle the Twitter page. Thank you.<br />

Your majesty,<br />
<br />
This is a coalition of several people fed up with the currenct lies of the Andanian government. We have good intentions and we don't want lies in the Microwiki community. We are attempting peace and we are not vandalizing pablo's pages. Please understand that he has also made claims against us and tried to delete my flag for "Copyright" problems. I just want peace and for everyone to just chill and not lie. Also pablo has called me several cuss words on discord.<br />
<br />
Kind regards, Tom kap<br />
<br />
PS: Also we have the right to declare independece from Andany. They don't need to recognize us.<br />

Your Majisty, <br />
<br />
We have been fid up of the lies and narsisim comeing from The reign of Pablo the 1st, As you may be aware he lied about the ufo sigting (red blood mon) and The recogntion of showell, Where he lives, and members of his government including Andanian oppestition leader ''Will Van Den Boom'' , His narsisim has been also a major problem, he gets relly angry when someone questions him or denies him of something, he also broken deals and when backed into a courner hw will pretend to help everyone so people will like him again but then later undo all of that, he has also made us stuff that we have used with out copyrighting it including the country balls he made that he said in his own words were 100% ours, hes also a hypocrite copying other people work to like his currunt coat of arms which is a copy of the propesed coa of New isreal, So for then we dicided that we had enough and had to stop this lying and narsiism plaging the micronational community , so we made The Republic of Andany, the twitter account was made to put propaganda on to try to convince people to join our cause but on eof us got a little bit to far and kinda turned it into a hate account, we hope that you do penalizes us and understand<br />

Your majesty,<br />

I do apologize for the tweets. I though believe Andany must stop. I questioned his rollercoaster and he got so angry and began accusing me of things. This has got to stop. I believe everyone in this conflict must be warned sternly as everyones behaviors where completely innapropriate in the Micronational Community. I hope that peace can happen and that this never happens again.He also calims my flag and coat of arms as copyright which it isn't.<br />
<br />
Kind Regards,Tom Kap<br />

:Iustus and Andanh have made a dale to introduce a new and more democratic position into the current Andanian Government. This will be called a Duceño or Duceña (depending on gender). It is like the check and balances after the National Assembly. This means all the Twitter accounts are gonna be deleted and the truth will be posted. We are sorry for placing our watermark on pictures I made. You guys are free to use them, as they aren't about or for me. Thank you, and we have resolved all conflicts.<br />

Thank you,<br />

'''Barbett'''<br />
<br />
'''Overview'''<br />
The Barbett was once the national currency of the Empire of Barbettia, and represented the wealth of the Barbettian economy as a whole, including physical assets. Multiple coins had been minted by the Kings of Barbettia, and these coins used to be in circulation through the Empire of Barbettia. The Barbettian Mint , as of 2017, is no longer active. There is no current use for the Barbett, as the new constitution defined there to be no official currencies in Barbettia, creating a freer market. Barbettian coins are now historical artifacts.</div>Atianhttps://micronations.wiki/index.php?title=User_talk:Emperor_Nicholas_Kaos&diff=343679User talk:Emperor Nicholas Kaos2018-09-08T00:46:55Z<p>Atian: /* Nomination */</p>

== Relations ==<br />
<br />
I intend to establish diplomatic relations with you.<br />
I hope you can answer soon. ;)<br />
*Hi there, I'm afraid I'd have to push your intent back a bit. For starters, the history of your nations seems rather fictional, with the first paragraph stating "MYCUS Republic claimed the Languedoc region during "The acquisition of 1444", when 2 people (Xanada and Giaco) '''from the future''' decided to buy a piece of land from France and decided to "help" it against the British." This seems a little foolish, and Pacem has stated publicly before the community that we establish relations with at the very least serious simulationist nations such as the [[Abeldane Empire]]. Furthermore, we does the MYCUS Republic have to offer Pacem? We are looking for bilateral agreements to benefit both sides and create stable relations that actually work. - [[User:Emperor Nicholas Kaos|Kaos]] 11:53 UTC 19 Jan 2018<br />
<br />
Also your whole Country it's rather fictional, your national sport is Dungeons & Dragons, what? Does it look like a sport? And I don't think that your history is realistic, the leader is a fricking child!<br />
<br />
**Most nations have teenage leaders in this community, so it is not that surprising for myself to be one. The national game is Dungeons and Dragons, not the national sport, for we have none. The history, while it may seem quite false, has been reported with pictures to the internet as well as news stories from verifiable news outlets several years ago. I suppose your outbreak towards Pacem seems to be an end of your wishes for relations, so I bid you good day. - [[User:Emperor Nicholas Kaos|Kaos]] 1746 UTC 20 Jan 2018</div>Atianhttps://micronations.wiki/index.php?title=User_talk:Emperor_Nicholas_Kaos&diff=343678User talk:Emperor Nicholas Kaos2018-09-08T00:46:34Z<p>Atian: /* Idk, just say what you want */</p>

:'''COMMENT: '''Article improved on since last nomination. Infobox also spruced up a little. HM John I of Baustralia <sup>([[User_talk:KingdomOfBaustralia|Talk]])</sup> 15:32, 21 November 2017 (UTC)<br />
* '''OPPOSE''': I don't believe that this article matches the criteria for a Good article. However, although this may not be a ''Good article'' in the sense of the criteria above, it is undoubtedly ''a'' good article with serious potential to be improved.<br />
::There are grammatical mistakes throughout the article, including in the lead section, and the tone is not always appropriately formal. For example, the first sentence reads "'''Baustralia''', or officially the '''Third Kingdom of Baustralia''' is micronation founded on 17 October, 2017, after the implementation of a constitution, bill of rights, and a basic Justice and Law Act." Firstly, there should be a comma after "Third Kingdom of Baustralia," as it is an embedded clause. Secondly, "X is micronation" is not correct; it should read "X is a micronation." Thirdly, although this is sometimes considered a matter of personal preference, I would not use a comma before "2017" in the date, especially when it is immediately followed by a comma. Additionally, the second list item should read "a bill of rights" in line with the use of an article in the other two list items. The tone is also a little too casual. A revised first sentence might read "'''Baustralia''', officially the '''Third Kingdom of Baustralia''', is a micronation founded on 17 October 2017 with the agreement of the [[Constitution of Baustralia]] and the signing into law of a Bill of Rights and the [[Justice and Law Act 2017]]."<br />
::The second sentence is also, from the perspective of crafting "engaging, coherent, clear and concise" prose, flawed. From where was the capital moved? Why is this information relevant in the lead section? The article's lead section needs rewriting to more adequately summarise the contents of the article. I would recommend looking at WikiProject Countries on Wikipedia for ideas about how to structure the article. I would be happy to help you myself, too, but I'm not an expert in Baustralia so you'd have to give me more information. These issues of tone are repeated throughout the article; "allowed us" is used in the History section where "allowed the Government" or similar should be used, which makes the article appear to be the work of the Government and not of the encyclopedia; in the Law and order section, the first sentence is structured "Until ...., all citizens are," which changes tense (it should say "Until...., all citizens were"); similar issues are found throughout the article.<br />
::Finally, the article is just too short. It has almost half the content of [[Matthewsgate controversy]], an article about an argument that caused someone to sulk off. This lack of content also causes it, in my opinion, to fail the illustrated requirement, as with the exception of the infobox and some images of airport logos, there are no photos. What does the country's territory look like? Are there any official Government files or photos of Government activities? How about notable politicians? The two go hand-in-hand - there just isn't enough there.<br />
<br />

'''SUPPORT''' - It was written by a 12 year old. Need i say more, well punctuated and very well written. Should be approved. [[User:Sakasarian Federation]]<br />
<br />
'''SUPPORT''' - The detail put into the article is outstanding. There is a well-needed lack of red links, and I am especially euphoric to see how well the infobox is designed. My only issue, and a personal one at that is of the short name in the infobox. It is a multicoloured image instead of a simple typed word. I believe this can be overlooked, however, and I can see this article obtaining approval. - [[User:Emperor Nicholas Kaos|Nicholas Kaos]] <small> 02:58 UTC, 8 April 2018 </small><br />
<br />
'''OPPOSE''' - Reluctantly and for now. Clearly a great deal of effort has gone into the article, but I have a couple of concerns, namely a) the article, particularly in the economic section, makes a number of claims that aren’t backed by evidence: it’s the largest exporter of wind products? It exports medical equipment? It has a GDP of $3,600? Without references or anecdotal evidence to prove these claims, it’s difficult to see how they can be accepted without a dubious tag being added. The other problem, b), is that in places, particularly where it refers to an incident with the Kingdom of Imvrassia (and, to a lesser extent, the Andanian Revolutionary War), it uses a conversational tone incompatible with the encyclopaedic nature of the wiki and of a Good Article in particular. For these reasons, I’m personally currently unable to support this submission. [[User:Bob Christ|Bob Christ]] ([[User talk:Bob Christ|talk]]) 09:58, 8 April 2018 (UTC)<br />

::'''OPPOSE''' - Apologies that this took so long to get round to. Starting out with a brief overview of the article, I thought I would support it after having made some minor edits and corrections, but as I started editing I realized that there is more to correct than I can really do myself, not having an insider's perspective about Andany. <br />
#If you have a population of 15, how are there 33 members of the Assembly?<br />
#Please make sure that any future edits you make abide the style guide in terms of the formats of dates, i.e. "25 July 2017" rather than "July 25, 2017". I've corrected all instances of this that I found, but just for future notice.<br />
#The section on Imvrassia's offer needs rewriting to remove sarcasm and bias. Saying that reception to the idea was "''mixed''" and going on to say that it was unanimously opposed just isn't encyclopaedic language.<br />
#You mention the American federalist system, Native Americans, and the American military in such out-of-context places that I have to assume that you copy-and-pasted large sections of the article from that of the USA on Wikipedia. This '''has''' to be fixed and rewritten. I should not be reading about the Andanian military and suddenly be told that US forces can be rapidly deployed by a fleet of transport aircraft.<br />
#If Floris has a population of 5, how does it have 14 Representatives?<br />

#Several claims in the Economy section, such as that "The Andanian economy is also the fastest growing Micronational economy in Europe.", and "Andany is the largest micronational importer of goods and second-largest micronational exporter" simply can't be quantified and should be removed.<br />

* '''OPPOSE''' It is not neutral, especially the military section.<br />
* '''OPPOSE''' I believe the page can use much more text within each section. This includes the plans, military, and economy sections, particularly. Furthermore, the article is not neutral as in the military section it starts off with "The Barbettian military is a strong force." Thirdly, I believe several sections should go under a much broader section to better organize the page. National symbols, explanation of state symbols, and culture could go under one culture section, and government structure and current government officials could go under government. Lastly, I would like to see more references if possible to better back up the information given in sections such as history. - [[User:Emperor Nicholas Kaos|Nicholas Kaos]] ([[User talk:Emperor Nicholas Kaos|talk]]) 21:09, 5 September 2018 (UTC)<br />

I also took out the Plans section, as that was not really needed. I merged National Symbols, Explanation of state symbols, and culture into one culture section, and added some more text to the culture section. Government structure and current government officials are now in one section. I added one reference for culture, but I will look to see if I can find some for history.

== Introduction ==<br />
<br />
The '''Empire of Barbettia''' (or '''Barbettia''' for short) is a secessionist micronation that was founded on February 15th, 2016. The Empire of Barbettia has a constitution, active government, and big plans for the future. Barbettia believes in a free market and is a capitalist state. Barbettia also believes in respecting its allies, and conducting itself in a peaceful manner toward other nations. Barbettia is environmentally friendly, and supports the protection of natural resources. Barbettia encourages the development of culture, science, and business. The Empire of Barbettia is currently enclaved by the [[w:United States|United States of America]].<br />
<br />
== History ==<br />
<br />
Barbettia was founded on February 15th, 2016. The Original Constitution was finished on this date. The constitution states that Barbettia was created to "build on and preserve our culture." The Barbettian Kings, the original two citizens of Barbettia, saw micronationalism as an opportunity to protect and grow Barbettia's existing culture. But before the nation formed officially, the Barbettian culture existed. A language, Barbettian, was developed in 2008. Barbettian was originally developed as a secretive language that was only used by the Kings of Barbettia, but when Barbettia was founded as a nation, it became an official language of the Empire. From 2008 to 2018, the Kings worked to add words, syntax, and grammar to the language. In 2018, Barbettian was put out of functional use and is only used for ceremonial purposes. <br />
<br />
The original constitution was different from the current one in that it created a national currency, the Barbett, which has since been revoked. The Barbett was based on the worth and value of Barbettian assets, and divided by the number of Barbetts in circulation. Barbetts were minted by the Kings of Barbettia, using hammers and cold minting techniques. They were made of metal. One Barbett was then divided into centavos. <br />
<br />
In order to spread word of Barbettia's creation, the first Barbettian Arts and Culture Show was held in early 2016. It showcased Barbettian coins, documents, history, symbols, and music to foreigners. <br />
<br />
[[File:Barbettianpresentation.PNG|150px|thumb|center|A Barbettian Presentation during the Culture Show]] <br />
[[File:Barbettianshow.PNG|150px|thumb|right|A whiteboard with Barbettian facts for foreigners]]<br />
<br />
Passports were created shortly after the foundation of Barbettia in 2016. These passports were made to permit entry to and from the temporary Barbettian territorial claim, enclaved by the United States. However, in 2017 they were revoked for a multitude of reasons. One of the reasons was that Barbettia is looking for a more permanent territory before it begins to enforce immigration laws and border security. <br />
<br />
On February 15, 2018, a new constitution was created. It was signed on February 18th, 2018. On August 29th, the citizens of the Empire of Barbettia elected their first president, Adam Trencher. See "Government Structure" for more details on the Barbettian president. As of August 2018, there are 8 citizens in Barbettia.<br />
<br />
== Government Structure ==<br />
<br />
Barbettia has a relatively unique form of government called a [[Diarchy]]. A [[Diarchy]] is like a monarchy, except there are two Kings instead of one. The Diarchy must make all decisions together. Should they disagree, the President shall act as either a tiebreak and side completely with one King, or suggest a compromise which both Kings must agree to. The Diarchy is all powerful and is only limited by the Constitution and Laws. A King succeeds his power to his first child or a designated person at death or resignation. A President is elected by popular vote annually. The Diarchy can form new government positions by delegating any of its many powers to another citizen.<br />
<br />
Barbettia is also unique because the Constitution gives the diarchy nearly absolute power; however, the Kings may then delegate that power to another citizen, thus creating a new position in the government. Nearly all powers in the government are reserved under the Diarchy until the Kings wish to delegate that power to another citizen and create a new ministry or office in the government for that power. <br />
<br />
Tbe Diarchy act as legislature for the Empire. However, legislature is also conducted at the State level. This is done democratically. States may make their own laws, provided they don't conflict with the constitution. The way this works is that any citizen of a state may propose a law. Every three months, a state voting day is held where all citizens above the age of 14 can vote yes or no to proposed laws. Should 60% or more vote yes, the law is put into existence. The executive position in a state is the Duke. The Duke has all non-legislative powers for the state, and answers directly to the Diarchy. The duke can be replaced by the Kings. <br />
<br />
Barbettia's government also includes territories, which are all parts of Barbettia not claimed under a state. They must follow all Barbettian laws, obey the Constitution, and will be protected by the Barbettian Guard. <br />
<br />
Barbettia's economy is capitalist, and there is currently no legislation or regulation on Barbettia's economy. It is a completely free market that is open to business, trade, and development of all kinds. <br />

== Culture ==<br />
<br />
'''Language:'''<br />
<br />
Barbettia has a well-developed culture. Barbettia created its own language, drinks, cuisine, and music. Ceremonial Barbettian music is written in the ceremonial language, Barbettian. The Barbettian language, though once spoken as a regular language, is now reserved for ceremonial purposes. It was originally a secret language, but is now open to all Barbettian citizens. Barbettians speak Esperanto, Portuguese and English for regular purposes. <br />
<br />
'''Food:'''<br />
<br />
One popular dish in Barbettia are: Rice samosas (samosas with only rice inside of them, but cooked without the rice first). Rice, beans, and avocados are some popular foods eaten in Barbettia. Barbettian drinks include milk, ginger ale, and clove ale, a drink invented by one of the Barbettian Kings. Barbettians believe in eating healthy food, but also use a variety of spices to make their food taste good. Some Barbettians are fond of baking bread and pastries. Barbettians grow some of their own food, and support organic farming. <br />
<br />
[[File:Cake.PNG|150px|thumb|center|A Barbettian favorite: Carrot cake]]<br />
<br />
'''Activities and Festivities:'''<br />
<br />
Barbettians celebrate Independence Day, on February 15th. There is freedom of religion and speech in Barbettia. Barbettian folk songs include "Grine yak doich epa grine yak hoise," and "Tros epa laja mindo ril." Also, there is "Aboba epa ama." These songs are recited at the Barbettian Arts and Culture Show. The National Anthem of the Empire of Barbettia is "Tros epa laja mindo ril." It consists of six verses, and is 80 words long. The anthem has piano sheet music and vocals. <br />
<br />
Common activities in Barbettia are Chess, Association Football, Table Tennis, and Pong Ball (a Barbettian-invented sport). Pong Ball is a team sport played on a (preferably indoor) court. There are teams of at least 2 to up to 5 players, and each team has its own goal and goalie. More information can be seen here: [https://www.topendsports.com/sport/new/pong-ball.htm| Pong Ball]. <br />
<br />
[[File:Pongballdiagrams.png|150px|thumb|center|Pong Ball Court]]<br />
<br />
'''Literature:'''<br />
<br />
Barbettian literature is varied in genre. It is mostly fiction, and ranges from fantasy to science fiction, and from dystopian novels to general action/adventure novels. One type of book that makes Barbettia unique is a collaborative fiction book, where one author writes a chapter, and another writes the next chapter, and so on. Another unique characteristic of Barbettia's literature would be deep development of settings. The settings in Barbettian books are detailed and planned outside of the book. This is known as [[w:worldbuilding|worldbuilding]]. Detailed pictures and models of Barbettian-created worlds are created to help the authors visualize what's going on in the story and where the characters are. <br />
<br />
[[File:Holo.PNG|150px|thumb|center|A model of a Barbettian book's city]]<br />
<br />
<br />
'''National Symbols:'''<br />
<br />
National Animal: Dog <br />
<br />
National Sports: Association Football, Table Tennis, Pong Ball (a Barbettian-created sport). <br />
<br />
National Bird: Golden Eagle.<br />
<br />
The flag and coat of arms are symbolic. Each symbol and color has a meaning. The fleur de lise represents the abundance produced by Barbettian agriculture. The bow and arrow shows the strength of the military. The soccer ball depicts a national sport, soccer. The conifer represents Barbettia's devotion to nature and environmental protection. The crown represents the power of the government that oversees all aspects of Barbettia. <br />
<br />
The chess knights on the coat of arms represents the importance of chess in the Empire of Barbettia, and the Golden Eagle on the coat of arms is the national bird. Below the coat of arms is depicted the national motto. The crown in the coat of arms shows that the monarchs have full control over all of these things.<br />
<br />
== Military ==<br />
<br />
The Barbettian military is formally known as the Barbettian Guard. It is composed mostly of Barbettian citizens. Currently, there are three members of the Barbettian military. In the future, private security contractors will play a role in keeping Barbettia safe. The military of Barbettia will be trained to defend the Empire of Barbettia from outer and inner threats. The Barbettian Guard also functions as a police force. Margrave is the highest position in the Barbettian Guard, and there is only one Margrave. The Margrave controls the entire military and reports directly to the Kings of Barbettia. The Kings of Barbettia can ultimately dictate what the Margrave and Barbettian Guard do, though generally that would be the job of the Margrave. The Barbettian military will be armed with modern weapons and will do their best to defend and protect the Citizens, Kings, and Empire of Barbettia.<br />

Should they disagree, the President shall act as either a tiebreak and side completely with one King, or suggest a compromise which both Kings must agree to. The Diarchy is all powerful and is only limited by the Constitution and Laws. A King succeeds his power to his first child or a designated person at death or resignation. A President is elected by popular vote annually. The Diarchy can form new government positions by delegating any of its many powers to another citizen.<br />
<br />
Barbettia is also unique because the Constitution gives the diarchy nearly absolute power; however, the Kings may then delegate that power to another citizen, thus creating a new position in the government. Nearly all powers in the government are reserved under the Diarchy until the Kings wish to delegate that power to another citizen and create a new ministry or office in the government for that power. <br />
<br />
Tbe Diarchy act as legislature for the Empire. However, legislature is also conducted at the State level. This is done democratically. States may make their own laws, provided they don't conflict with the constitution. The way this works is that any citizen of a state may propose a law. Every three months, a state voting day is held where all citizens above the age of 14 can vote yes or no to proposed laws. Should 60% or more vote yes, the law is put into existence. The executive position in a state is the Duke. The Duke has all non-legislative powers for the state, and answers directly to the Diarchy. The duke can be replaced by the Kings. <br />
<br />
Barbettia's government also includes territories, which are all parts of Barbettia not claimed under a state. They must follow all Barbettian laws, obey the Constitution, and will be protected by the Barbettian Guard. <br />
<br />
Barbettia's economy is capitalist, and there is currently no legislation or regulation on Barbettia's economy. It is a completely free market that is open to business, trade, and development of all kinds. <br />

Barbettia has a well-developed culture. Barbettia created its own language, drinks, cuisine, and music. Ceremonial Barbettian music is written in the ceremonial language, Barbettian. The Barbettian language, though once spoken as a regular language, is now reserved for ceremonial purposes. It was originally a secret language, but is now open to all Barbettian citizens.

== Military ==<br />
<br />
The Barbettian military is formally known as the Barbettian Guard. It is composed mostly of Barbettian citizens. Currently, there are three members of the Barbettian military.

The Barbettian Guard also functions as a police force. Margrave is the highest position in the Barbettian Guard, and there is only one Margrave. The Margrave controls the entire military and reports directly to the Kings of Barbettia. The Kings of Barbettia can ultimately dictate what the Margrave and Barbettian Guard do, though generally that would be the job of the Margrave. The Barbettian military will be armed with modern weapons and will do their best to defend and protect the Citizens, Kings, and Empire of Barbettia.<br />

== Introduction ==<br />
<br />
The '''Empire of Barbettia''' (or '''Barbettia''' for short) is a secessionist micronation that was founded on February 15th, 2016. The Empire of Barbettia has a constitution, active government, and big plans for the future. Barbettia believes in a free market and is a capitalist state. Barbettia also believes in respecting its allies, and conducting itself in a peaceful manner toward other nations. Barbettia is environmentally friendly, and supports the protection of natural resources. Barbettia encourages the development of culture, science, and business. The Empire of Barbettia is currently enclaved by the [[w:United States|United States of America]].<br />
<br />
== History ==<br />
<br />
Barbettia was founded on February 15th, 2016. The Original Constitution was finished on this date. The constitution states that Barbettia was created to "build on and preserve our culture." The Barbettian Kings, the original two citizens of Barbettia, saw micronationalism as an opportunity to protect and grow Barbettia's existing culture. But before the nation formed officially, the Barbettian culture existed. A language, Barbettian, was developed in 2008. Barbettian was originally developed as a secretive language that was only used by the Kings of Barbettia, but when Barbettia was founded as a nation, it became an official language of the Empire. From 2008 to 2018, the Kings worked to add words, syntax, and grammar to the language. In 2018, Barbettian was put out of functional use and is only used for ceremonial purposes. <br />
<br />
Passports were created shortly after the foundation of Barbettia in 2016. These passports were made to permit entry to and from the temporary Barbettian territorial claim, enclaved by the United States. However, in 2017 they were revoked for a multitude of reasons. One of the reasons was that Barbettia is looking for a more permanent territory before it begins to enforce immigration laws and border security. <br />
<br />
On February 15, 2018, a new constitution was created. It was signed on February 18th, 2018. On August 29th, the citizens of the Empire of Barbettia elected their first president, Adam Trencher. See "Government Structure" for more details on the Barbettian president. As of August 2018, there are 8 citizens in Barbettia.<br />
<br />
