be put back through again in plain text.

Subject: Mediation on Pronunciation Paragraph Of "Bangladesh" page &
Un-Ethical behaviour of SysOp
To: wikien-l-owner at wikipedia.org


Hi David, I have been trying to keep a very necessary paragraph on
pronunciation of the word "Bangladesh" on [[Bangladesh]] page and also
another similar pronunciation para on the word "Bangla" in the
[[Bengali Language]] page . But paragraphs were often deleted and page
was often reverted back by sysop "Ragib" & sysop "Idleguy" and lastly
by sysop "Dmcdevit" . These three sysops worked as a team and did 3RR
by themselves . This paragraph is very important, because it can
remove confusion and reduce harassment on Bangladeshi people . Wrong
pronunciation of "Bangladesh" leads to an incorrect meaning . The
sound of "a" in "Bang" & "la" should be pronounced like the sound of
"a" in the word "Lava", for correct pronunciation . Which most
non-native speakers don't do, even some Bangladeshis, when they are
talking with non-native speakers . I'm looking forward to solve this
issue . Please start a mediation process to solve this problem . Many
thanks . I've already expressed and exchanged opinion about this issue
with "Ragib" in [[Bengali Language]] and [[Bangladesh]] discussion
page and also in our own Talk/discussion page . Please see those .
Admin/SysOp "Dmcdevit" performed many unethical steps outside of the
Wikipedia Policy . "Dmcdevit", "Ragib" and "Idleguy" deleted, reverted
even my improved version of that paragraph, again and again . Please
look into it . I'm looking for OnWiki (Public) type of mediation to
re-include this paragraph and an warning be issued for these SysOps,
or, revocation of their privilege which they have mis-used . Many
thanks for solving the problem related to post in my own page.
