Re: Ramallah lynching
Hi ShamWow! In order to move an article, you need to click the Move link at the top of the page and make sure that the box "also move talk page" is checked. However, there's no need to do that now, because 2000 Ramallah lynching is a proper title for this article.
About the assessment: You have done very good work! I am assessing it as C-class for now on the basis of comprehensiveness—there is a whole lot of information about aftermath and reactions, but very little about the actual incident, how it happenned, possible accounts, etc. There is also no information on Israeli investigations into the incident. More text in the reactions section would also be great.
After these issues are addressed, the article will easily be B-class, and you could nominate it for GA as well. Cheers, Ynhockey (Talk) 16:18, 10 July 2009 (UTC)
- Hi again! There is no simple way to merge the talk pages; technically I could merge their histories, but AFAIK this is not done for talk pages without a very good reason. Because there are no recent discussions on the Talk:Lynching in Ramallah page, it can just be redirected to the other one, with an explanatory note at the top of the current talk page (see this section, clause 8). Cheers, Ynhockey (Talk) 16:40, 10 July 2009 (UTC)
Re: Assessment
Hi ShamWow! The article you mentioned does not fall under the scope of WikiProject Israel. I have also been a strong support from removing the article Yasser Arafat from the project, but there are not enough regular editors to debate this with. I hope it can be done someday. We should be focusing more on articles that don't deal with I–P. —Ynhockey (Talk) 18:16, 22 July 2009 (UTC)
- Yes, it is a known problem that WP Palestine tags are everywhere. We've had discussions about it, but ultimately it's their choice which articles they tag. I always thought that WP Palestine was very political with difficult to understand goals, but so far they have produced at least as many 'native' GAs and FAs as we have, so despite their disruptive tagging they clearly take their project seriously, so I'm not sure we should get into this dispute again and instead focus on actual Israel-related articles. There is absolutely no reason for us to increase the scope of our WikiProject, as we currently have over 3,000 stubs (some of which are top- and high-importance), and hundreds of very bad articles that need work. I only wish the 64 WP Israel participants focused on these tasks more and on I–P disputes and the "Pro-Israel Lobby in the United States" less. —Ynhockey (Talk) 14:35, 23 July 2009 (UTC)
Hi again! The Qassam article is start-class. I personally would not like to make it part of our WikiProject, but I am sure there are many users who feel differently. If you strongly believe that it should be, please feel free to add the template and a start-class rating. —Ynhockey (Talk) 19:53, 11 August 2009 (UTC)

RE:Jund Ansar Allah
I usually don't edit these kinds of articles specifically, but I still think it's a start. There should probably be some inclusion of the Hamas reaction (what the politicians said), the reaction from Jund Ansar Allah at the result of the Hamas operation, and if possible the position of the PA in the West Bank. If this is added, I wouldn't oppose upgrading the article to C-class since it's a relatively new group only known for two things: failed attack on Israel and failed declaration of an Islamic emirate.

You currently appear to be engaged in an edit war according to the reverts you have made on Criticism of Human Rights Watch. Note that the three-revert rule prohibits making more than three reversions on a single page within a 24 hour period. Additionally, users who perform several reversions in content disputes may be blocked for edit warring even if they do not technically violate the three-revert rule. When in dispute with another editor you should first try to discuss controversial changes to work towards wording and content that gains a consensus among editors. Should that prove unsuccessful, you are encouraged to seek dispute resolution, and in some cases it may be appropriate to request page protection. Please stop the disruption, otherwise you may be blocked from editing. nableezy - 04:52, 9 September 2009 (UTC)

Your goal is to convince the reader that Israel Bartal is an idiot or what? He makes a real critic to Sand, why do you want quote only the most annoying bons mots!?. All in all, since this is about Sand on not about Koestler or his book, I suppress the whole.

Speedy deletion nomination of Category:Intra-Palestinian violence
![](https://upload.wikimedia.org/wikipedia/en/thumb/1/15/Ambox_warning_pn.svg/48px-Ambox_warning_pn.svg.png)
A tag has been placed on Category:Intra-Palestinian violence, requesting that it be speedily deleted from Wikipedia. This has been done under section G4 of the criteria for speedy deletion, because the article appears to be a repost of material that was previously deleted following a deletion debate, such as at articles for deletion. Under the specified criteria, where an article has substantially identical content to that of an article deleted after debate, and any changes in the content do not address the reasons for which the material was previously deleted, it may be deleted at any time.
If you think that this notice was placed here in error, you may contest the deletion by adding {{hangon}}
to the top of the page that has been nominated for deletion (just below the existing speedy deletion or "db" tag), coupled with adding a note on the talk page explaining your position, but be aware that once tagged for speedy deletion, if the page meets the criterion, it may be deleted without delay. Please do not remove the speedy deletion tag yourself, but don't hesitate to add information to the page that would render it more in conformance with Wikipedia's policies and guidelines. Lastly, please note that if the page does get deleted, you can contact one of these admins to request that they userfy the page or have a copy emailed to you. nableezy - 17:37, 30 January 2010 (UTC) 17:37, 30 January 2010 (UTC)

Re: Capitalization of "g" in "Iranian Government"
Hey Plot Spoiler,
Thank you for your message regarding the above matter. When used in a general sense, the term "government" is written with a lower case "g" (e.g. "the first responsibility of any government is the security of its citizens"). However, when used to refer to a specific government, an upper case "g" is used (e.g. "the Government of Iran"). This is because it is referencing an official body/entity/title, and is analogous to the use of an upper case "p" when referring to "the President of the United States". If used in a general sense (e.g. "the U.N. General Assembly meeting was attended by presidents, and heads of government from across the world"), a lower case "p" would be used.
Thanks. CrimeCentral (talk) 04:01, 10 February 2010 (UTC)

Michael Oren
Hello there! I am not going to lose sleep over this, but what groups an ambassador does and does not meet does not belong here. He meets different groups on the daily basis, and often comments on this to the media. Regarding J Street, these remarks are already obsolete, as I've read more recently that Oren approved a meeting by one of his officials with J Street, saying they have moved towards mainstream... Singling out one particular group and one particular (non-)meeting does not make any sense.
Heccling of Israeli speakers on campuses occurs every week if not every day. Not even worth a back page of a paper (maybe local paper ok), let alone encyclopedia. Have you read WP:recentism?

Vandalism Claim
I don't see how what I did is vandalism. I added to Ariel Sharon's description that he is a war criminal and cited a source. If you feel my source isn't legitimate then I can pick from thousands of others that say the same thing. Just because you don't agree with the fact that this degenerate murderer of thousands isn't a war criminal does not make my edit vandalism. In fact majority of people in this world would most likely support my view point, which is not opinion, it is fact. If you want the validity of my edit and source called into question because you don't want the truth exposed fine, but don't attack me by calling what I did vandalism. Wikipedia is not supposed to be about suppressing the truth, but rather providing it to users. I feel you may be the one who needs to read the welcome page and not me.

I have just noticed you have since reverted again and have ignored my request to discuss this at the talk page. Frankly your rationale for reverting, "This doesn't define who he is -- say something about his works." , does not make any sense as the information you removed was a good part of defining this person.

Request for mediation
A request for formal mediation of the dispute concerning Washington Institute for Near East Policy has been filed with the Mediation Committee (MedCom). You have been named as a party in this request. Please review the request at Wikipedia:Requests for mediation/Washington Institute for Near East Policy and then indicate in the "Party agreement" section whether you would agree to participate in the mediation or not.
Mediation is a process where a group of editors in disagreement over matters of article content are guided through discussing the issues of the dispute (and towards developing a resolution) by an uninvolved editor experienced with handling disputes (the mediator). The process is voluntary and is designed for parties who disagree in good faith and who share a common desire to resolve their differences. Further information on the MedCom is at Wikipedia:Mediation Committee; the policy the Committee will work by whilst handling your dispute is at Wikipedia:Mediation Committee/Policy; further information on Wikipedia's policy on resolving disagreements is at Wikipedia:Resolving disputes.
If you would be willing to participate in the mediation of this dispute but wish for its scope to be adjusted then you may propose on the case talk page amendments or additions to the list of issues to be mediated. Any queries or concerns that you have may be directed to an active mediator of the Committee or by e-mailing the MedCom's private mailing list (click here for details).
Please indicate on the case page your agreement to participate in the mediation within seven days of the request's submission.
I believe you have broken the 3RR rule on this page, where you are edit-warring against 3 other users. Please rv your last edits, or you will risk being reported for 3RR violation. Thank you. Huldra (talk) 21:57, 23 March 2010 (UTC)

Arbitration enforcement warning: discretionary sanctions (WP:ARBPIA)
The Arbitration Committee has permitted administrators to impose, at their own discretion, sanctions on any editor working on pages broadly related to the Arab-Israeli conflict if the editor repeatedly or seriously fails to adhere to the purpose of Wikipedia, any expected standards of behavior, or any normal editorial process. If you engage in further inappropriate behavior in this area, you may be placed under sanctions including blocks, a revert limitation or an article ban. The committee's full decision can be read at Wikipedia:Requests for arbitration/Palestine-Israel articles#Final decision.
This warning relates to this exchange. If you continue to allege that others engage in "hate speech" or make similar serious accusations without at the same time providing very convincing diffs to substantiate these allegations, you may be made subject to significant sanctions.

Re In Agreement
", if you just looked at the AE page, you'd think Wikipedia only dealt with I/P"
- Yeah. I'd agree with this. However, I would point out that this seems to occur b/c members on both sides of this debate seem to be willing to arbitrate at the drop of a hat. I personally avoid arbitration unless there is dramatic and clear cut behavior that warrants it. Though I don't like battlegrounding or incivility, I think arbitrating against them often times does more to inflame than prevent the behavior.
- Perhaps the solution is for editors closer to center of this issue to form a sort of "moderate coalition" who's goal is to work to exclude extremists on both sides of the debate. So often on WP and in real life, extremists are allowed to rule debates b/c moderates on the same "side" as the extremists are afraid to speak against them for fear of crippling their argument's chance at success.

explain your actions
Please explain the following edit you made to my talk page:
"This is the final warning you will receive regarding your disruptive edits."
Final warning? How many warnings do I get? Where are the previous warnings?
"If you vandalize Wikipedia again, as you did at 2009 Aftonbladet Israel controversy, you may be blocked from editing without further notice."
I'd like you to explain this. How did I "vandalize" wikipedia in the "2009 Aftonbladet Israel controversy"? Who are you to start threatening me just because you don't want people to know Israel harvests organs illegally?
"Please stop your vandalistic, biased edits that are not supported by the sources given."
The sources I gave did support my claim that an international journalist found a box of human corneas harvested in Haiti, that the Prime Minister of Haiti has claimed that organ harvesting and child trafficking is taking place in Haiti and that "T. West" has linked these facts together into the conclusion that Israel is harvesting organs in Haiti. It's a perfectly reasonable conclusion, given that Israel was the first and best hospital immediately on scene and the IDF has a history of harvesting organs without permission illegally.
"Wikipedia is not a place to promote fringe, malicious claims."
There's nothing "fringe" about Israel harvesting organs, they admit it and this is in the public domain, you are insane or ignorant or both.

What are you talking about? I didn't delete the criticism section of the Iron Dome article. I moved it to the bottom of the article because it made no sense being in the middle.

Request reason:
Err, I thought I only did 1 revert for any given issue. Please tell me if I'm mistaken. Much appreciated.
Decline reason:
I'm not sure exactly what you mean by "any given issue", but on the specific page in question, Gaza flotilla raid, you reverted a couple of times between 0400 and 0500 of 3 June. As I understand it, the single-reversion restriction applies to the page as a whole, not to any individual section of it. You seem like a useful and well-meaning contributor; perhaps just sit out the remaining couple of hours and look at the links at the top of the \editing page to find out exactly what is meant by the arbitration enforcement decision. In general, when a page is obviously about a very contentious issue, it's prudent to proceed very, very slowly and be absolutely sure you understand the underlying policies.

- Accounting: I don't think that's correct at all. I would suggest you seek input from a sysop who can confirm or deny that I am wrong. I don't at all believe that unrelated reverts are lumped together for the purpose of that rule -- the same as they certainly are not for purposes of the 3RR rule.--Epeefleche (talk) 05:51, 7 June 2010 (UTC)
- The three-revert rule covers any reverts (in excess of three), whether they are complete reverts to a previous version or are partial reverts of content (eg, user A edits two paragraphs, user B undoes one of those changes). The three-revert rule is not like threefold repetition in chess - it applies to any reverts, even if they are to completely different sections of the article. Obviously, we take into account whether the intention was to edit war or not - technically, if you delete a sentence from an article it's a partial revert because obviously someone had to put that sentence in there at some point in time, so we would not normally block someone who is not intentionally reverting. --B (talk) 05:59, 7 June 2010 (UTC)
- I often work through long articles that are heavily edited on a section-by-section basis. If it has 10 sections, and I make two reverts, one in section a, and another in section f, I don't believe that is a 1RR violation.--Epeefleche (talk) 06:38, 7 June 2010 (UTC)
- Well, again, admins are human beings and would evaluate whether or not the intention was to edit war. Also, 1RR is a rare exception - the overwhelming majority of articles are not subject to 1RR. --B (talk) 06:44, 7 June 2010 (UTC)

Thanks, B, I agree with you. My feeling is that, if an article is plastered with notifications about how highly contentious it is, including one for an arbitration decision that restricts the article to 1RR, any editor who chooses to edit that article has been amply warned that his/her actions will be carefully scrutinized and concomitantly has a higher standard of caution to meet than that applied to 3RR. I would not disturb a 12-hour block in this situation unless there was clear-cut evidence that the blocking administrator had acted in bad faith -- which, of course, there was not here. 12 hours is the Wikipedia equivalent of a few deep breaths, not a lifetime in prison. Had I not felt that I understood the policy thoroughly, I certainly would have asked another administrator for advice or simply declined to act. Accounting4Taste:talk 14:05, 7 June 2010 (UTC)
- I'm not sure that B and I disagree. It seems that matters may be fuzzy, and sysops expected to review the edits to get a sense as to the nature of them. I just actually made edits myself to the IHH article. Because it is heavily edited, I did it on a section by section basis. More than one edit may have contained a partial revert, but I was by no means edit warring. The restriction to 1RR is as Accounting suggests more draconian--but I believe that the draconian nature is in the number of reverts allowed, not in the interpretation of what constitutes a revert. Just my thoughts.--Epeefleche (talk) 18:42, 7 June 2010 (UTC)
- Back to back edits (with no other editors editing in between) are considered a single revert for purposes of 3RR. Also, the IHH article is not subject to 1RR anyway, so it's not a problem. Obviously there's some level of inconsistency here in the rule and that's why we have human admins, not admin bots. If it is a heavily edited article, you might make four unrelated partial reverts but clearly are not edit warring (ie, you're working on completely different sections of the article from what anyone else is doing), but because there are other editors making intervening edits (to completely different sections of the article), it's a technical violation of 3RR. In such a case, there is obviously no intention to edit war and we're not likely to make a block. --B (talk) 19:10, 7 June 2010 (UTC)

Unblock request granted
Do keep a few things in mind:
- If a user reverts you, try to discuss it first. Either create a section on the article talk page or the users talk page and notify them.
- Give them a reasonable time to respond (A day, or perhaps two. Just check their contributions to see if they are around).
- Try to resolve the conflict, but don't edit the disputed section or revert the other party if they do, to prevent edit warring.
- If you can agree on something, good job! If you cannot agree, take it to WP:3O or WP:RFC. And keep in mind that reverting each other blindly will lead to nothing but friction and bad blood between editors.
That is my advice for now. Happy editing! Excirial (Contact me,Contribs) 13:42, 7 June 2010 (UTC)
Octavia Nasr
I seem to have reverted you on the wrong grounds, but I hope you will accept this nonetheless. You removed the paragraph mentioning Helen Thomas being in a similar situation a month ago, but I didn't read your edit summary thoroughly so I thought you were asserting that the article would become like an opinion piece with this text, not that you requested a better source than an opinion piece. Anyway, I didn't really intend (I added this text originally) for the references to attest to more than the existence of both cases, not to establish a connection between them, as the similarities and both appearing relatively within the same time frame makes the connection so very obvious. I'm sure others in regular news articles have pointed out this, but when I reverted you now I hadn't sought to provide more sources on this. I just found a better source, and I'll insert that now. __meco (talk) 16:23, 9 July 2010 (UTC)

Miral: your questionable edits....
Not quite sure how it is that you are justiying your undos at the Miral page, but I am finding your edit exceedingly frustrating as it seems that you attempting to hide certain facts about the film as well as portray only specific elements of the film. Also, I am beginning to sense the beginning of an edit war as well as a 3rr vio, just want to warn you and see if we discuss the issue on the Miral talk page. Thanks. GoetheFromm (talk) 21:09, 24 March 2011 (UTC)
Possible 3RR violation
- Just want to let you know that within 24 hours, you've reverted my material over three times on separate occasions on the page Miral. This may violate 3RR. WP:EW
- FYI:
- "An editor must not perform more than three reverts on a single page within a 24-hour period. Undoing another editor's work—whether in whole or in part, whether involving the same or different material each time—counts as a revert. Violations of the 3RR rule normally attract blocks of at least 24 hours. Any appearance of gaming the system by reverting a fourth time just outside the 24-hour slot is likely to be treated as a 3RR violation."
GoetheFromm (talk) 16:01, 25 March 2011 (UTC)
- Was going to report it, but I think it best to warn and discuss:
- FYI, here is the entirety of your 3RR violation as I see it:

You currently appear to be engaged in an edit war. Users are expected to collaborate with others and avoid editing disruptively.
In particular, the three-revert rule states that:
- Making more than three reversions on a single page within a 24-hour period is almost always grounds for an immediate block.
- Do not edit war even if you believe you are right.
If you find yourself in an editing dispute, use the article's talk page to discuss controversial changes; work towards a version that represents consensus among editors. You can post a request for help at an appropriate noticeboard or seek dispute resolution. In some cases it may be appropriate to request temporary page protection. If you continue to edit war, you may be blocked from editing without further notice.
WP:ARBPIA restrictions
Hi Plot Spoiler, perhaps you did not realize it, but the Victoria Affair article, like all articles that are part of the Israel-Palestine conflict, is subject to editing restrictions of one revert per editor per article per 24 hour period. Your recent editing violated this restriction. In fairness, the notice about this was not placed on the talk page until today, so you may have violated this restriction in good faith. In the future, be mindful of this restriction. Tzu Zha Men (talk) 19:12, 25 March 2011 (UTC)

Hi Plot, in case you have not seen it yet Cellarfloor is a sock of Passionless and his POVs here and in all other places could be safely reverted. Broccolo (talk) 20:13, 19 May 2011 (UTC)

Zenga Zenga
As the creator of Zenga Zenga, this might interest you. Also, please accept my apology for how I behaved at Miral a few months ago. At the time I took WP:AGF much more seriously than I do now, because I thought it was truly a fundamental principle on Wikipedia. An Admin has since informed me that that's not the case in practice. Had I simply reverted the other contributor, a lot of time and aggravation could have been saved for everyone involved. I was still new and naive then.—Biosketch (talk) 08:30, 23 May 2011 (UTC)
RM alert
The move request at Talk:Foreign relations of the Palestinian National Authority was closed, so we're now taking suggestions for an alternative. As you were involved in the previous discussion, I'd be grateful if you could contribute to the new one. Please lodge your support for a proposal, or make one of your own.

Abdel Bari Atwan
Hey there, you have removed my last edit in the Abdel Bari Atwan article because Youtube is not a reliable source. However, it says here http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Wikipedia:Reliable_source_examples#Are_IRC.2C_MySpace.2C_and_YouTube_reliable_sources.3F that "video clips published on YouTube may be acceptable as primary sources if their authenticity can be confirmed, or as a secondary source if they can be traced to a reliable publisher".
Both is the case for the Youtube link I used. The incident was also widely documented through Twitter, in case that helps. — Preceding unsigned comment added by Mayyou (talk • contribs) 07:02, 30 June 2011 (UTC)
If you don't reply to this soon I will interpret your silence as acquiescence and revert the changes you made. Please respond. contribs) — Preceding unsigned comment added by Mayyou (talk • contribs) 14:25, 1 July 2011 (UTC)

What do you think?
Hi Plot,
What do you think about including this source? If the article is merged to Mein Kampf in Muslim countries or something like this, then this source and many others could be added to the article as well. Cheers.--Mbz1 (talk) 04:21, 18 July 2011 (UTC)

WP:OR
Please read wp:or and wp:v, these will tell you that your editing is original material, ie, that you are putting together two ideas to create the idea that Tzviki Bar-Hai is a liar. Public awareness (talk) 00:20, 9 October 2011 (UTC)

Your recent edits seem to have the appearance of edit warring after a review of the reverts you have made on August 2010 West Bank shooting attack. Users are expected to collaborate and discuss with others and avoid editing disruptively.
Please be particularly aware, the three-revert rule states that:
- Making more than three reversions on a single page within a 24-hour period is almost always grounds for an immediate block.
- Do not edit war even if you believe you are right.
If you find yourself in an editing dispute, use the article's talk page to discuss the changes; work towards a version that represents consensus among editors. You can post a request for help at an appropriate noticeboard or seek dispute resolution. In some cases it may be appropriate to request temporary page protection. If you engage in an edit war, you may be blocked from editing without further notice. -FASTILY (TALK) 01:37, 9 October 2011 (UTC)
