Welcome![edit]

Hello, Ahmed M Farrag, and welcome to Wikipedia! Thank you for your contributions.

I noticed that one of the first articles you edited appears to be dealing with a topic with which you may have a conflict of interest. In other words, you may find it difficult to write about that topic in a neutral and objective way, because you are, work for, or represent, the subject of that article. Your recent contributions may have already been undone for this very reason.

To reduce the chances of your contributions being undone, you might like to draft your revised article before submission, and then ask me or another editor to proofread it. See our help page on userspace drafts for more details. If the page you created has already been deleted from Wikipedia, but you want to save the content from it to use for that draft, don't hesitate to ask anyone from this list and they will copy it to your user page.

One rule we do have in connection with conflicts of interest is that accounts used by more than one person will unfortunately be blocked from editing. Wikipedia generally does not allow editors to have usernames which imply that the account belongs to a company or corporation. If you have a username like this, you should request a change of username or create a new account. (A name that identifies the user as an individual within a given organization may be OK.)

In addition, if you receive, or expect to receive, compensation for any contribution you make, you must disclose your employer, client, and affiliation to comply with our terms of use and our policy on paid editing.

Here are some pages that you might find helpful:

I hope you enjoy editing here and being a Wikipedian! Please sign your messages on talk pages using four tildes (~~~~); this will automatically insert your username and the date.

Egypt[edit]

Hi

Do you have the text of the new version of the constitution? --Panam2014 (talk) 18:18, 19 April 2019 (UTC)[reply]

Hello @Panam2014: if you mean Egypt's 2014 constitution, you can find a translation of it here. A cached copy of a lower quality one found on a .gov site can be accessed here. --Ahmed M Farrag (talk) 18:43, 19 April 2019 (UTC)[reply]
Thank you. And for the amendements? --Panam2014 (talk) 18:48, 19 April 2019 (UTC)[reply]
@Panam2014: This article lists some of the amendments. I'll try to find a better English source, unless Arabic is good for you. --Ahmed M Farrag (talk) 18:54, 19 April 2019 (UTC)[reply]
@Panam2014: Found one. Also, the Arabic article now has a list of the changed texts along with their current counterparts. --Ahmed M Farrag (talk) 18:19, 20 April 2019 (UTC)[reply]

Thank you. When will the Senate be elected? --Panam2014 (talk) 22:26, 23 April 2019 (UTC)[reply]

Dear @Panam2014: Sorry for taking so long. According to this, a law needs to be put forward first by the current Parliament that "details and clarifies" the constitutional amendments and "sets elections dates". This quotes the Parliament's chair saying it's expected in 2020, alongside the Parliament's elections which is due sometime in May-April 2020. --Ahmed M Farrag (talk) 11:52, 26 April 2019 (UTC)[reply]
there are still Entrenched_clause in the new text? Also, there are also Entrenched clauses in Tunisian and Algerian constitutions. Despite Bouteflika attempted to run for a fitth term in 2019 before protests. --Panam2014 (talk) 15:09, 26 April 2019 (UTC)[reply]
@Panam2014: Yes, it remains, as the amendments never touched article 226. Apparently they don't need to remove it. I have no idea, though, about the Tunisian and Algerian constitutions and whether/how their entrenched clauses were circumvented. --Ahmed M Farrag (talk) 15:15, 26 April 2019 (UTC)[reply]
The clause in Egypt was about the number of terms and their duration? --Panam2014 (talk) 15:30, 26 April 2019 (UTC)[reply]
@Panam2014: I'm inclined to think it doesn't cover duration. The last paragraph of article 226 stipulates "In all cases, texts pertaining to the re-election of the president of the republic or the principles of freedom and equality stipulated in this Constitution may not be amended, unless the amendment brings more guarantees."

Thank you. Will Sisi appoint soon a vice-president? --Panam2014 (talk) 13:45, 4 May 2019 (UTC)[reply]

@Panam2014: Newspapers mention that, under the amendments, there's no obligation for the president to appoint one. But nothing pertaining to a time frame for one to be appointed. --Ahmed M Farrag (talk) 13:58, 4 May 2019 (UTC)[reply]

استفسار[edit]

السلام عليكم،، يعطيك العافية استاذ احمد، لاحظت انك قمت بوضع انذار لمسح صور قمت بتحميلها لاشارك في تطوير صفحات ويكيبيديا ممكن اسأل عن السبب وكيفية الغاء قرار المسح FootBallQ8 (talk) 13:47, 10 April 2023 (UTC)[reply]

مرحبا @FootBallQ8،
رددت عليك على كومنز. تحياتي. Ahmed M Farrag (talk) 20:08, 10 April 2023 (UTC)[reply]
اخي ممكن تتواصل معي على الايميل FootBallQ8 (talk) 20:10, 10 April 2023 (UTC)[reply]
ذلك صعب. أرجوك واصل النقاش على كومنز وليس هنا بما أنه أمر متعلق بكومنز وليس ويكيبيديا الإنجليزية. Ahmed M Farrag (talk) 20:12, 10 April 2023 (UTC)[reply]

Why did you revert my edits?[edit]

I was simply improving the articles and ensuring that they better fit Wikipedia's official neutral point of view policy. I didn't even remove content. Zakawer (talk) 23:49, 23 March 2024 (UTC)[reply]

Hi @Zakawer,
Thanks for reaching out. The two articles, Rabaa massacre and Rabia sign, describe events that took place more than 10 years ago. Both articles are stable. I find your change of words are watering down and underplaying the military's role in the massacre, and going more in the direction of state/military propaganda. Also, there are some unsourced additions in the second article.
And on this topic, I see you also made changes to Egypt; could you please provide a reference for the statement you added, or otherwise remove it: "this included the election in 2012 of a brief, ahort-lived Muslim Brotherhood-aligned Islamist government spearheaded by Mohamed Morsi" the part where it says "Muslim Brotherhood-aligned government".
Also, in the same article you added "and its subsequent overthrow after mass protests in 2013" which gives the impression the coup d'etat was a popular demand, which it isn't.
Cheers, Ahmed M Farrag (talk) 17:52, 24 March 2024 (UTC)[reply]
I simply believe that I was toning down statements that came off as biased against the mass protests against Mohamed Morsi's government in June 2013 and/or appeared to have a pro-Muslim Brotherhood bias. That is all. Zakawer (talk) 18:40, 24 March 2024 (UTC)[reply]
