| Country | Kyrgyz Republic |
Ters (Терс) is a mountain in the west of the Kyrgyz Republic, between the Ters and Chatkal rivers.[1] It is 30 kilometres (19 mi) long running roughly south-west to north-east, and between 13 and 15 kilometres (8.1 and 9.3 mi) wide.[1]
The Chaktal side slopes whereas the Ters side is the steeper, with a gorge-like valley.[1] The mountain is mostly crystalline granite, with intrusions of Carboniferous granite-diorite and granite-syenite rock.[1]
It is between 3,000 and 3,300 metres (3,300 and 3,600 yd) high, its highest point being 3,890 metres (4,250 yd).[1] Up to 2,300 metres (7,500 ft) it is covered in field and meadow steppe, meadow and forest bush above that to 2,800 metres (9,200 ft), and above that tall grass meadow and alpine meadow.[1]

Today is Bastille Day, commemorated by a DYK as my "story" and a visit to the Bastille Opera in "music". I like the interview coming with the story, on the day before the big event, but for pomp and circumstance, the affair with 600 singing children and orchestra, and the singer dressed in the national flag, was also captured on videos, much slower. --Gerda Arendt (talk) 16:21, 14 July 2025 (UTC)
Could you please watch Helena Tattermuschová (story on 13 July, still on the main page)? Vandalism, and a slow edit warrior (see also first talk page item). --Gerda Arendt (talk) 08:04, 15 July 2025 (UTC)
Three Ukrainian topics were on the main page today, at least at the beginning, RD and DYK, - see my talk. --Gerda Arendt (talk) 17:02, 20 July 2025 (UTC)

On Bach's day of death, I decorated my user pages in memory of his music, and my story ends on "peace". --Gerda Arendt (talk) 10:18, 28 July 2025 (UTC)
Farewell to the Prince of Fucking Darkness
I don't know about you, but I wish people would refer to things like "Spiral Architect" when reminiscing about Black Sabbath, but what do I know? Ritchie333 (talk) (cont) 08:18, 23 July 2025 (UTC)
- (talk page watcher) Perhaps if we listen in awe we'll hear him-- Bark at the Moon. -- Deepfriedokra (talk) 10:41, 23 July 2025 (UTC)
- Fun fact, perhaps, Ritchie, but I came to Black Sabbath only indirectly--first by way of Ronnie James Dio (and listening to Mob Rules) and then probably through Soundgarden, and through Ozzy. I was just too late to be there "live" and of course they weren't on the radio much in the 80s. I saw/heard that final show; it wasn't bad and it was very fitting. End of an era, huh. Yeah, DFO, those songs really do mark a very specific period of my life, one I wouldn't mind having back for a bit: I was all youth and no direction. Drmies (talk) 13:19, 23 July 2025 (UTC)
Well, he appears to have decided that the article about himself shouldn't languish for even a minute in Draftspace and has moved himself into Mainspace. He left off the {{Autobiography}} tag you added, so I put it back. Where we go from here is to be seen. Cheers! Geoff | Who, me? 17:20, 29 July 2025 (UTC)
Your draft article, Draft:Bethmale valley
Hello, Drmies. It has been over six months since you last edited the Articles for Creation submission or draft page you started, "Bethmale valley".
In accordance with our policy that Wikipedia is not for the indefinite hosting of material, the draft has been deleted. When you plan on working on it further and you wish to retrieve it, you can request its undeletion. An administrator will, in most cases, restore the submission so you can continue to work on it.
Thank you for your submission to Wikipedia, and happy editing. Liz Read! Talk! 23:12, 30 July 2025 (UTC)
Hi there!
I know i had promised not to contact you again regarding this article, but here it goes: this account/IP (SAME person, i GUARANTEE you!) is getting beyond ridiculous, i humour/accommodate them EVERY TIME, but they still have to have the last word. According to them, to say "he participated at the Olympics" should be written in intro instead of "he won a bronze medal at the Olympics", how dumb does this get?
And i have no doubt i will be reverted again, especially when i write a heated summary to go along with my reversion, they must get a major kick/boost reinstating their version...Pathetic!!
Attentively, take care RevampedEditor (talk) 21:33, 3 August 2025 (UTC)
- Yeah, sorry I didn't look at this earlier, but these are really content disputes, no matter how right you can be. If there is indeed IP socking, you could file an SPI. They won't tell you whether there is a match, but if you make a case for disruptive editing there might be consequences for them. Drmies (talk) 14:12, 6 August 2025 (UTC)
Take a look at my edits last night
All those Libyan (?) articles. You've edited some. I semi protected them for a year, but won't be around when that expires so you might want to keep some on your watch list. Couldn't figure out how to contact you on Messenger etc. Doug Weller talk 14:48, 5 August 2025 (UTC)
- Good thing my lovely talk page is still here, Doug. But I see you found me on Facebook--note my new relationship status. ;) Drmies (talk) 18:15, 5 August 2025 (UTC)
- That's a casual remark: "won't be around when that expires"... Verdorie. Joshua Jonathan - Let's talk! 16:09, 5 August 2025 (UTC)
- I feel fairly casual about it, usually. Ever so often I'm angry that the liver surgery left 2mm, but then I think about my Parkinson's and the problems that would cause for my wife, and I don't want that to happen. Doug Weller talk 16:12, 5 August 2025 (UTC)
- Makes me think of that exchange in First Blood: "Rambo: They're all gone Sir. Trautman: Not Barry, he made it. Rambo: Barry's gone too Sir. Got himself killed in Nam, didn't even know it. Cancer ate him down to the bone." Would that there were another path for you, Doug! Geoff | Who, me? 17:26, 5 August 2025 (UTC)

IPs
Just saw this (https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Special:Contributions/2001:8A0:766E:7A00:0:0:0:0/64), funny thing is that here, there are several IPs amassed into one list of contributions; 99,999999999999% - if not 100% - are me.
Sure, there is the occasional lousy edit summary, but care to comment on the BLOCK?! Sure made me feel uncomfortable, but if the block is because of that (but that's not what the note reads, it reads "likely IP-socking, edit warring") then i'll have to say it's deserved... RevampedEditor (talk) 14:38, 6 August 2025 (UTC)
- Oh, I thought it was the other guy--hence my edit summary. I can't remember anymore who did what with that team's name. Surely you are not editing without being logged in! ;) Drmies (talk) 14:52, 6 August 2025 (UTC)
- I removed the block: but you need to be logged in when you edit, OK? My confusion is your own doing, friend... Drmies (talk) 14:54, 6 August 2025 (UTC)
Indeed (your last lines)! Let's see if i can hang until the end of the day editing duly (aka with account)... RIP Ozzy Osbourne!! --RevampedEditor (talk) 14:59, 6 August 2025 (UTC)
- Don't ask me--I don't know. Drmies (talk) 15:01, 6 August 2025 (UTC)
Please remove this (https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/User_talk:2001:8A0:766E:7A00:6CF5:C471:AB85:EE2F) as soon as possible. With me telling you again the IP(s) was/were me, you know the "persistently making disruptive edits" bit just is not true!
Attentively, enjoy the rest of your weekend --RevampedEditor (talk) 17:31, 8 August 2025 (UTC)
- Yes but you HAVE to start logging in, always. Drmies (talk) 19:37, 8 August 2025 (UTC)
Administrators' newsletter – August 2025
News and updates for administrators from the past month (July 2025).
Administrator changes
Guideline and policy news
- Following a request for comment, a new speedy deletion criterion, G15, has been enacted. It applies to pages generated by a large language model (LLM) without human review.
- Following a request for comment, there is a new policy outlining the granting of permissions to view the IP addresses of temporary accounts. Temporary account deployment on the English Wikipedia is currently scheduled for September 2025, and editors can request access to the permission ahead of time. Admins are encouraged to keep an eye on the request page; there will likely be a flood of editors requesting the permission when they realize they can no longer see IP addresses.
Technical news
- Administrators can now restrict the "Add a Link" feature to newcomers. The "Add a Link" Structured Task helps new account holders get started with editing. Administrators can configure this setting in the Community Configuration page.
Arbitration
- The arbitration case Indian military history has been closed.

All pages related to the region of South Asia (India, Pakistan, Afghanistan, Sri Lanka, Bangladesh and Nepal), broadly construed, including but not limited to history, politics, ethnicity, and social groups.
- The contentious topic designations for Sri Lanka (SL) and India, Pakistan, and Afghanistan (IPA) are folded into this new contentious topic.
