Alert

This is a standard message to notify contributors about an administrative ruling in effect. It does not imply that there are any issues with your contributions to date.

You have recently shown interest in the Arab–Israeli conflict. Due to past disruption in this topic area, a more stringent set of rules called discretionary sanctions is in effect. Any administrator may impose sanctions on editors who do not strictly follow Wikipedia's policies, or the page-specific restrictions, when making edits related to the topic.

For additional information, please see the guidance on discretionary sanctions and the Arbitration Committee's decision here. If you have any questions, or any doubts regarding what edits are appropriate, you are welcome to discuss them with me or any other editor.

General Prohibition

Per WP:A/I/PIA All IP editors, accounts with fewer than 500 edits, and accounts with less than 30 days tenure are prohibited from editing any page that could be reasonably construed as being related to the Arab-Israeli conflict. This prohibition is preferably enforced by the use of extended confirmed protection, but where that is not feasible, it may also be enforced by reverts, page protections, blocks, the use of pending changes, and appropriate edit filters. --Shrike (talk) 12:29, 8 February 2019 (UTC)[reply]

Iraq

You have been given plenty of chances to sources your changes in Iraq and you have failed to do so. You keep putting back invalidated changes and that is not acceptable. Now we're considering any reverts as vandalism and you will be reported if you undo them again. You will get blocked from editing. Knock it off. Ususer445 (talk) 21:19, 29 December 2021 (UTC)[reply]

Hello

Hi. You seem to be interested in pages related to the current war in Gaza? But you won't be able to edit them until you have 500 edits (See Wikipedia:Contentious topics, Template:Contentious_topics/alert, and Template:Contentious topics). Maybe make some small edits on uncontroversial pages so you can join in and help on the Gaza topic. Irtapil (talk) 04:58, 24 November 2023 (UTC)[reply]

hi Irtapil, i wanted to open it for discussion, because i haven't been able to find a correct translation in the media. seems like the only sources reporting on this are israeli and pro-israel sources and they all misquote the press release tendentiously. i'm not sure what wikipedia policy says about this kind of situation. i can show a google translate translation of their press release which i typed here: [1]. most importantly: (a) they say "وجزء من المستوطنين" which means "some of the settlers", in contrast with misquoting them as claiming that all of them were killed by aircraft; (b) the reference to killing everyone is a reference to the Hannibal directive, which allows (الذي يمكن), allegedly, to kill everyone, not that they actually killed everyone; (c) the statement does not deny israeli accounts of the massacre but rather casts doubt (تشكك). it appears that i am not allowed to even write in the talk page right now. if you are able to, you are welcome to use part or all of what i have written above, with or without attribution, as you see fit.--Exjerusalemite (talk) 16:57, 24 November 2023 (UTC)[reply]
