Can you show me where it was said that [[Arutz Sheva]] a garbage source? You also removed content from [[Maariv (newspaper)|Maariv]], which is one of the most-read newspapers in Israel and a reliable source. Why did you remove it?

:Per BLP, this hearsay needs stronger sourcing. As far as Arutz Sheva, see [[Wikipedia:Reliable_sources/Noticeboard/Archive_75#Arutz_Sheva|here]] or [[Wikipedia:Reliable_sources/Noticeboard/Archive_252#Arutz_Sheva|here]] or for example [https://archive.nytimes.com/thelede.blogs.nytimes.com/2010/10/23/palestinians-sentenced-for-civil-disobedience/ the NYT describing it as "a news organization that represents the view of Israeli settlers in the West Bank"]. Im sure I can find more, but its reliable for the views of settlers and thats it. <small style="border: 1px solid;padding:1px 3px;white-space:nowrap">'''[[User talk:Nableezy|<span style="color:#C11B17">nableezy</span>]]''' - 17:05, 31 October 2023 (UTC)</small>
::Huh? Agree with you on the need for good sourcing for BLP. But bias is not indicative of reliability, as you've rightly argued many times elsewhere. Neither RSN reflects a consensus view that AS/INN or Maariv are unreliable. The NYT does not say AS only reliable for "the view of settlers." RS also say that Al-Jazeera represents the view of Qatar. But we wouldn't say that AJ is only good for the views of Qatar and that's it. [[User:Longhornsg|Longhornsg]] ([[User talk:Longhornsg|talk]]) 22:17, 31 October 2023 (UTC)
:::Arutz Sheva has a long history of being a settler mouthpiece, and for any material related to Qatar I would not be using al Jazeera either. But see for example: [https://books.google.com/books?id=S_sfAwAAQBAJ&pg=PA49 such as the establishment of the radio station Arutz Sheva, which represents the settlers], [https://books.google.com/books?id=oSQgAwAAQBAJ&pg=PA262 Arutz Sheva, the settlers radio station] or [https://books.google.com/books?id=4TCbDwAAQBAJ&pg=PA191 Arutz Sheva, a settler source]. It is a garbage source, and there are countless other Israeli sources of much higher quality that we can, and do, use. <small style="border: 1px solid;padding:1px 3px;white-space:nowrap">'''[[User talk:Nableezy|<span style="color:#C11B17">nableezy</span>]]''' - 22:29, 31 October 2023 (UTC)</small>
::::Popping back in, though I love talk page debates, as no arguments provided here resonate with me and sound like [[WP:DONTLIKE]]. Sure, Arutz Sheva is biased. But bias != unreliable, and excluding a source that is quoted extensively by other RS solely for its perceived biased (but that produces similar journalism as other RS in this area) would be a violation of NPOV, just as excluding [[Al-Jazeera Arabic]] or [[Al-Arabiya]], etc, would be.

You think A7 is reliable for facts that Tamimi did these things that all the responsible outlets are saying she is merely alleged to have done, and more than that most of them include the denial? Where A7 simply says, without any substantiation whatsoever, that Tamimi is a. a terrorist supporter, and b. wrote in Hebrew a Nazi inspired threat, and c. that this is a fact so clear we shouldnt even include a denial? Well if you feel that way thats nice for you, I do not.

You should just revert IPs engaging in content discussion, drop them a quick explainer on ECP, and report them if they continue to take part in discussions establishing consensus on article content.

:{{u|ScottishFinnishRadish}}, I saw Nableezy's comments on the talk page in question on this matter and came here to inquire about where they were getting the assertion that "Non-extended users cannot contribute to consensus discussion on ARBPIA articles". I've reviewed ARBPIA4 and I see no reference to such a sanction--and indeed, I would have expected there to have been an absolute furor of argument if ArbCom had tried to create such a rule whole-cloth, limiting [[WP:ANYONECANEDIT]] in such a way without a strong community mandate for such.
:And I've just reviewed ECP as well to make sure I am up to date on any changes there, and I see no evidence of such a rule expressed there either. Rather ECP says only that extended confirmed protection can be applied to CTOP articles, and that if it is, non-extended confirmed users can use edit requests to propose changes (because of course they can). But it doesn't say anything about their contributions to consensus discussions being limited to requesting changes, nor does it imply anything remotely similar. As far as I know, there is no community consensus limiting contributions of non-ec editors to discussions on talk pages for articles under any type of page protection, CTOP or no. I think you might both be labouring under a misconception here, but I suppose it's possible I've missed some sort of recent development somewhere. If so, can you point me to where this consensus is codified?

:::Thanks for that, {{u|ScottishFinnishRadish}}; I appreciate your cluing me in to where this change occurred. I have to say (and hopefully Nableezy will forgive my getting on the soapbox on their talk page), but I have serious misgivings about ArbCom promulgating that particular rule by themselves. Less because of the result (I suppose there are arguments either way) and more because they chose to abrogate such a core and founding community priority so broadly on their own onus, with the input of just a few members of the community. I'm beginning to wonder if any permutation of ArbCom these days sees any practical limits to their prerogative to legislate policy unilaterally. Something like this really should only have been done with major consultation of the community: from the looks of it, there was no parallel discussion at [[WP:VP]] or even a listing on [[WP:CD]]?

:::::Yeah, I'm of two minds on the underlying matter. On the one hand, I definitely feel that there's a risk of baby out with the bathwater here, to use another old idiom. Content editing restrictions are one thing, but restricting even ''consensus discussion'', and specifically on contentious topics, to only established editors feels like a bridge too far to me. There's more than a whiff of "we, the regulars, should have exclusive input" elitism in this, as well as an element of [[WP:CREEP]] towards the goal of a vocal minority on the project to eventually restrict all editing to registered users. On the other hand, I also understand the perspective that the corps of veteran editors is spread increasingly thin across acrimonious areas, fighting disruption from SPAs and other bad actors. I imagine a true community discussion on this matter would have brought a variety of perspectives and that it might have been a very close run thing, however the community came down.
:The best way to describe the West Bank is the way sources do, which is [[Israeli occupation of the West Bank|Israeli occupied]]. This is the super majority view on that.

== The great man ==
G'day Nableezy, I hope you are well. Just had a quick look at the subject article wondering about assessing it, and beyond the few currently uncited passages, I cannot see this article getting to a stable enough state for a successful GAN while the current levels of fighting and activity in the West Bank is ongoing (and it will be needing updating as it progresses), and I think at over 18,000 words it is too long and would benefit from splitting. There are also a few single sentence paragraphs. Some widget I have installed is telling me the Abdullah, Daud source is generally unreliable, and there appear to be dozens of sources in the Sources section that are not used for citations in the article itself (for example, Algazy, Bishara, Mearsheimer, Slater and Halper, and many more). The latter gives the impression there are more sources used in the article than there are. I have a great deal of respect for the work that yourself and others have done on what is an important article, but just don't think it is going to be able to be positively assessed against the GA criteria until things settle down a bit over there and it is updated and the points mentioned here are addressed. Just my two cents, take it or leave it. Cheers, [[User:Peacemaker67|Peacemaker67]] ([[User_talk:Peacemaker67|click to talk to me]]) 06:46, 22 November 2023 (UTC)
