Infobox for Israeli settlements

Hi Wickey-nl. The question of the heading in the infobox for Israeli settlements with city- and local council-status (e.g. Beit El) is being discussed at Talk:Israeli settlement#Wrong infobox in several articles of settlements. Please join the discussion there, Ajnem (talk) 17:22, 19 March 2013 (UTC)

Saying that someone "propagated racism by virtue of the Torah" is your opinion and you are entitled to it. However wikipedia is not the place for your opinion, no matter how virtuous, correct, and well founded it may be. I suggest you read WP:NPOV --Bachrach44 (talk) 14:00, 21 March 2013 (UTC)

Jerusalem

Hi,

I share your mind about what should be the lead but there is an RfC about this issue and we should comply with the process. (See the article's talk page). I suggest that you self revert and eventually contribute to the RfC. Cheers, Pluto2012 (talk) 13:22, 20 May 2013 (UTC)

I would say, this does not suspend normal editing. --Wickey-nl (talk) 14:18, 20 May 2013 (UTC)

Except the topic of the RfC concerns directly your edit and status of capital of Israel. This was discussed by ArbCom and a mediator was appointed to launch the RfC. Pluto2012 (talk) 14:28, 20 May 2013 (UTC)

I had told you : [1] ;-) Pluto2012 (talk) 09:59, 21 May 2013 (UTC)

Reported for edit warring

As advised on Template talk:Palestinian elections, I'm afraid I have had to report you for edit warring for repeatedly removing the links in violation of WP:BRD. Number 57 14:33, 12 August 2013 (UTC)

Articles of interest to you are covered by discretionary sanctions under WP:ARBPIA

Please see this 3RR closure and read about the discretionary sanctions provisions of Wikipedia:Requests for arbitration/Palestine-Israel articles. Edit warring on Palestinian elections templates should not continue. Since you're an experienced editor I'm sure you are familiar with talk pages and that you know how to work for agreement with other editors. These templates are not yet tagged for ARBPIA but that may be the next step if the dispute continues. Thank you, EdJohnston (talk) 14:53, 13 August 2013 (UTC)

A kitten for you!

Nice work on the gaza-egypt border page!

Replaceable fair use File:Rafah buffer zone, May 2004.jpg

Thanks for uploading File:Rafah buffer zone, May 2004.jpg. I noticed that this file is being used under a claim of fair use. However, I think that the way it is being used fails the first non-free content criterion. This criterion states that files used under claims of fair use may have no free equivalent; in other words, if the file could be adequately covered by a freely-licensed file or by text alone, then it may not be used on Wikipedia. If you believe this file is not replaceable, please:

1. Go to the file description page and add the text {{di-replaceable fair use disputed|<your reason>}} below the original replaceable fair use template, replacing <your reason> with a short explanation of why the file is not replaceable.
2. On the file discussion page, write a full explanation of why you believe the file is not replaceable.

Alternatively, you can also choose to replace this non-free media item by finding freely licensed media of the same subject, requesting that the copyright holder release this (or similar) media under a free license, or by creating new media yourself (for example, by taking your own photograph of the subject).

If you have uploaded other non-free media, consider checking that you have specified how these media fully satisfy our non-free content criteria. You can find a list of description pages you have edited by clicking on this link. Note that even if you follow steps 1 and 2 above, non-free media which could be replaced by freely licensed alternatives will be deleted 2 days after this notification (7 days if uploaded before 13 July 2006), per the non-free content policy. If you have any questions, please ask them at the Media copyright questions page. Thank you. Stefan2 (talk) 15:12, 31 October 2013 (UTC)

What does "used limited" mean?[2]Anythingyouwant (talk) 01:52, 17 December 2013 (UTC)

Limited is, of course, relative. Non-neutral sources are not preferred, not first choice, and should be accompanied with neutral sources. They should not be dominant. Often, opposite non-neutral sources are needed to keep the article neutral. --Wickey-nl (talk) 10:19, 17 December 2013 (UTC)

But do you think the sentence is grammatical?Anythingyouwant (talk) 14:24, 17 December 2013 (UTC)

Instead of this: "However, biased sources should be used limited and with utmost caution."

Maybe this: "However, biased sources should be used in a limited way and with utmost caution."

Or this: "However, the use of biased sources should be limited, and they should be used with utmost caution."

Anythingyouwant (talk) 15:08, 17 December 2013 (UTC)

English is not my native language, but the second one seems very good to me. The first one would advise the use with limited competence. --Wickey-nl (talk) 15:48, 17 December 2013 (UTC)

Okay, thanks, I'll make the change since it is only grammatical. Cheers.Anythingyouwant (talk) 16:02, 17 December 2013 (UTC)
