Disambiguation link notification for May 5
Hi. Thank you for your recent edits. Wikipedia appreciates your help. We noticed though that when you edited Egyptian Armed Forces, you added a link pointing to the disambiguation page Kuwait Liberation Medal. Such links are almost always unintended, since a disambiguation page is merely a list of "Did you mean..." article titles. Read the FAQ • Join us at the DPL WikiProject.

Yom Kippur War
Hello, I have seen your recent edit to the Yom Kippur English page. If you have the sources required can you please present them on the talk page? Also, it is best to argue that the result be changed to both sides claim victory rather than either side since both are pretty backed up -- unfortunately I am unable to get my hands on Arabic sources. Thank You Infor4fun (talk) 03:56, 22 May 2015 (UTC)
Egyptian Air Force
Hi, you reverted my changes to the lists at Egyptian Air Force. I made these changes according to consensus reached at Wikipedia_talk:WikiProject_Aviation#List_of_aircraft_of_X_Air_Force.2FMilitary_table_formats.2C_especially_as_related_to_images. If you disagree, don't war - discuss it at Wikipedia talk:WikiProject Aviation). — Cheers, Steelpillow (Talk) 08:37, 22 August 2015 (UTC)

Hi,
You appear to be eligible to vote in the current Arbitration Committee election. The Arbitration Committee is the panel of editors responsible for conducting the Wikipedia arbitration process. It has the authority to enact binding solutions for disputes between editors, primarily related to serious behavioural issues that the community has been unable to resolve. This includes the ability to impose site bans, topic bans, editing restrictions, and other measures needed to maintain our editing environment. The arbitration policy describes the Committee's roles and responsibilities in greater detail. If you wish to participate, you are welcome to review the candidates' statements and submit your choices on the voting page.

Greetings. I reverted your addition of an Articles for Deletion template to this article, because you hadn't did perform any of the additional steps required for a proper listing (as detailed in WP:AFDHOWTO), and didn't appear to provide any justification elsewhere for the article's deletion. If you still wish to nominate this article for deletion, please follow all of the necessary steps. Please feel free to ask questions--I have no opinion one way or the other on the article itself, but I'm willing to assist if you need help with the process. --Finngall talk 18:41, 30 November 2015 (UTC)
Recent edit to Egyptian Army
Hello, and welcome to Wikipedia. I noticed that you removed some content from Egyptian Army without explaining why.

If you would like to experiment, please use the sandbox. If you think I made a mistake, or if you have any questions, you can leave me a message on my talk page. Thank you!

Hi, I moved your page (National Service Products Organization) to the draft namespace so you can continue to work on it. I felt it was not up to the Wikipedia standard and thus I've entered it into the AfC process. Anarchyte (work | talk) 06:38, 29 January 2016 (UTC)

You may add it back if you think that that will be useful. However, please note that images for which a replacement could be created are not acceptable for use on Wikipedia (see our policy for non-free media).

I wanted to let you know that I just tagged Egyptian Border Guard for deletion, because it seems to be inappropriate for a variety of reasons.
If you feel that the article shouldn't be deleted and want more time to work on it, you can contest this deletion, but please don't remove the speedy deletion tag from the top.
You can leave a note on my talk page if you have questions. 🍺 Antiqueight chat 00:24, 15 February 2016 (UTC)

WikiProject Egyptian military history
Hi Rabea, I've noticed your good work at the Egyptian Armed Forces page and thought you might be interested in joining the recently started WikiProject Egyptian military history. As the name suggests, the purpose of the project is to increase cooperation between editors involved in the vast subject area of Egypt's military history, share sources and ideas, and spearhead efforts to create missing articles and improve existing ones. We just started a week ago and hope to improve the project in the coming weeks and months. If you're interested, you could add your username to the members list, and feel free to add to any of the sections on the homepage regarding "Missing articles", "Tasks" and "Resources".

File source and copyright licensing problem with File:We painted on the heart.ogg
Thanks for uploading File:We painted on the heart.ogg. However, it currently is missing information on its copyright status and its source. Wikipedia takes copyright very seriously.
If you did not create this work entirely yourself, you will need to specify the owner of the copyright. If you obtained it from a website, please add a link to the page from which it was taken, together with a brief restatement of the website's terms of use of its content. If the original copyright holder is a party unaffiliated with the website, that author should also be credited. You will also need to state under what licensing terms it was released. Please refer to the image use policy to learn what files you can or cannot upload on Wikipedia. The page on copyright tags may help you to find the correct tag to use for your file.
Please add this information by editing the image description page. If the necessary information is not added within the next seven days, the image will be deleted. If the file is already gone, you can still make a request for undeletion and ask for a chance to fix the problem.
Please also check any other files you may have uploaded to make sure they are correctly tagged. Here is a list of your uploads. If you have any questions please ask them at the Media copyright questions page. Thank you. Steel1943 (talk) 04:08, 9 March 2016 (UTC)
March 2016
Hi, and thank you for your contributions to Wikipedia. It appears that you tried to give a page a different title by copying its content and pasting either the same content, or an edited version of it, into another page with a different name. This is known as a "cut-and-paste move", and it is undesirable because it splits the page history, which is legally required for attribution. Instead, the software used by Wikipedia has a feature that allows pages to be moved to a new title together with their edit history.
In most cases, once your account is four days old and has ten edits, you should be able to move an article yourself using the "Move" tab at the top of the page (the tab may be hidden in a dropdown menu for you). This both preserves the page history intact and automatically creates a redirect from the old title to the new. If you cannot perform a particular page move yourself this way (e.g. because a page already exists at the target title), please follow the instructions at requested moves to have it moved by someone else. Also, if there are any other pages that you moved by copying and pasting, even if it was a long time ago, please list them at Wikipedia:Requests for history merge. Thank you.

Edit Summary
Hi there! Thank you for your contributions to Wikipedia.
When editing Wikipedia, there is a field labeled "Edit summary" below the main edit box. It looks like this:
Edit summary (Briefly describe your changes)
Please be sure to provide a summary of every edit you make, even if you write only the briefest of summaries. The summaries are very helpful to people browsing an article's history.
Edit summary content is visible in:
Please use the edit summary to explain your reasoning for the edit, or a summary of what the edit changes. Thanks! - theWOLFchild 00:27, 16 March 2016 (UTC)
License tagging for File:Supreme Council of the Armed Forces Leadership.jpg
Thanks for uploading File:Supreme Council of the Armed Forces Leadership.jpg. You don't seem to have indicated the license status of the image. Wikipedia uses a set of image copyright tags to indicate this information.
To add a tag to the image, select the appropriate tag from this list, click on this link, then click "Edit this page" and add the tag to the image's description. If there doesn't seem to be a suitable tag, the image is probably not appropriate for use on Wikipedia. For help in choosing the correct tag, or for any other questions, leave a message on Wikipedia:Media copyright questions. Thank you for your cooperation. --ImageTaggingBot (talk) 04:05, 22 March 2016 (UTC)
Egyptian Armed Forces: Citations
Do not remove citation needed tags or you will eventually face administrator action. Instead, you've already indicated the source in your edit summary. Just move it to the page and copy it in with ref tags!! Buckshot06 (talk) 03:36, 23 March 2016 (UTC)
- I need to warn you about your edits at Egyptian Air Force. Your edit on Biafra completely changed the text, removing details, without changing the source. That distorted the source, which is not acceptable. Please find supporting sources and reference them. In general, sourced information should not be removed - can you explain why you removed the information you did? Regards Buckshot06 (talk) 21:25, 25 March 2016 (UTC)
- Thanks for your note. It was good that you were adding information. But why did you remove the sourced information that was there before? Buckshot06 (talk) 20:20, 27 March 2016 (UTC)
- Regarding this edit, I'm sorry, I've had to revert it. You REMOVED SOURCED INFORMATION, from Reliable Sources. Why? Buckshot06 (talk) 20:17, 29 March 2016 (UTC)
- No problem, this source did not exist before in the article, I added the source but the information is insufficient, see this. RabeaMalah (talk) 21:19, 29 March 2016 (UTC)
- The information is sourced from a WP:Reliable Source and is well supported by my memory of other sources and the general performance level of the EAF. Please do not remove reliably sourced information again. You can go ahead and add your other Nigerian Civil War data, but do not remove the preexisting material.

Thank you for your contributions. It seems that you may have added public domain content to one or more Wikipedia articles, such as Egyptian Army. You are welcome to import appropriate public domain content to articles, but in order to meet the Wikipedia guideline on plagiarism, such content must be fully attributed. This requires not only acknowledging the source, but acknowledging that the source is copied. There are several methods to do this described at Wikipedia:Plagiarism#Public-domain sources, including the usage of an attribution template. Please make sure that any public domain content you have already imported is fully attributed. Thank you. — Diannaa (talk) 02:02, 26 March 2016 (UTC)
Removing redlinks
Would you kindly please explain this edit? Apart from introducing references which did not support the text (the source, already there, is Pollack, Arabs at War, 60, as indicated in the footnote in the paragraph) you removed the redlinks, in contravention of WP:REDLINK. Why did you do this? Buckshot06 (talk) 03:39, 26 March 2016 (UTC)
- Rather, I am not welcome in these articles, I think you're watching me.--RabeaMalah (talk) 12:04, 27 March 2016 (UTC)
- With edit histories, everyone watches everybody. But on my question, why did you remove the redlinks? Let me try and put it another way, assuming more good faith: redlinks are there to grow the encyclopedia. I am sure that one or the other of those two officers have Arabic wikipedia articles. We should translate them!! - not remove redlinks!! Cheers Buckshot06 (talk) 20:23, 27 March 2016 (UTC)
- Well I'm sorry I did not mean to Remove the redlinks, I hope you will accept my apology. RabeaMalah (talk) 20:30, 27 March 2016 (UTC)
- No problem whatsoever. Just add redlinks for officers and things that are important in future, don't remove them!! Buckshot06 (talk) 22:54, 27 March 2016 (UTC)
- Of course I don't want remove them it was just a mistake. RabeaMalah (talk) 23:49, 27 March 2016 (UTC)

Egyptian Air Defence Force
Thankyou for referencing the Fahmy book. Can you tell me what the ISBN number on the book is? Buckshot06 (talk) 20:24, 27 March 2016 (UTC)
- The fourth power: the history of the Egyptian Air Defense - Field Marshal Mohammed Aly Fahmy I have pdf and Good Reads. RabeaMalah (talk) 20:41, 27 March 2016 (UTC)
- I cannot read Arabic without G-Translate. Can you please look at the first few pages of the book - sort of inside cover - check the ISBN number (ar:رقم_دولي_معياري_للكتاب) and add it to the EADF article. Otherwise people will find it hard to find it again. Please do this to help improve the WP:REFERENCEs of the article. Buckshot06 (talk) 22:53, 27 March 2016 (UTC)
- Do you see that the link says that's an ASIN, an Amazon Standard Identification Number, which is a book company name, not an ISBN. But yes I have looked thru the PDF and cannot find an ISBN. Please add the ASIN into the reference at Egyptian Air Defense Forces. Buckshot06 (talk) 23:16, 27 March 2016 (UTC)
- I don't know how to do this?. Can you do this please. RabeaMalah (talk) 23:38, 27 March 2016 (UTC)
- Unless you want me to continue removing all your added text because it has no sources, you have to learn. Come on - you inserted the reference, the Fahmy book, at EADF, just copy the text 'ASIN 17292477' into that same reference. Buckshot06 (talk) 00:18, 28 March 2016 (UTC)

MOD film
Thanks for the MOD film link. Would you consider reading Kenneth Pollack, Arabs at War - Egyptian Military Effectiveness 1948-91? Then you will see why I am a little skeptical of some of the statements in the film. Many thanks for your willingness to chat about these issues - I do appreciate it.

- Have you read the section, the summary on Egyptian military effectiveness 1948-91? What do you think? Buckshot06 (talk) 22:46, 29 March 2016 (UTC)
- Well book says that the Egyptian Armed Forces are weak experience, not very good, lost wars, if this is true, the Egyptian armed forces after the Egyptian Revolution of 2011 underwent a very significant development, I don't deny that the EAF lacked a lot of things; the reason is the corruption of Mubarak, Tantawi, the former military leadership, but now the EAF are subject to intensive development in all branches, deals and military exercises prove this. ``Egyptian people refuse the Gulf War is not considered a real war, so the army did not have a believer in this war, and a lot of Egyptian soldiers they said: We don't want to raise our weapons in the face of our brothers, Our brothers = Iraqis. RabeaMalah (talk) 23:25, 29 March 2016 (UTC)
- Thanks for your reactions/thoughts. Your English is slowly improving - great work!! Honestly, what do you think about 1948 and 1956; surely when the Arab states went to destroy the new Israel, they failed in 1948? Israel survived, correct? Isn't that losing a war? Buckshot06 (talk) 00:19, 30 March 2016 (UTC)
- Yes is true the Arabs lost the 1948 war and the 1967 war with Israel, the reason is the weakness of the Arab soldier and weapons compared with the Israeli soldier and weapons, backed by the West, the Arabs do not deny this defeat, 1956 war is not a war for Israel, the attack was by the three countries, Israel, France and Britain, against a weak state somewhat and was under construction after the fall of the monarchy, even though the result was Egyptian political victory and coalition military victory. "" I'm from Switzerland and you?. RabeaMalah (talk) 00:55, 30 March 2016 (UTC)
- What, therefore, about 1973? User:Buckshot06 may not be very clear, because one of the alternative of the New Zealand flag referendums, 2015-16 is there: Aotearoa New Zealand. Buckshot06 (talk) 01:15, 30 March 2016 (UTC)
- The 1973 war is considered by the Egyptians and the Arabs recovered Arabic dignity after losing Arab wars of 1948, 1956, 1967, in fact the Egyptian army was totally different from the Army defeated and weak, at the beginning of the war was very advanced and liver of Israelis big losses, but at the end of the war... See this in order to know my opinion at the end of the war, for me the Egyptians have achieved their objectives and their dignity, but the Syrians have been very stupid in the war, Greetings and God save your homeland.

RabehMalah, I would really like to help you contribute on this wikipedia but you must not infringe copyright. Do not upload Egyptian MOD images and then claim you created them!! You cannot do this!! I have deleted the image. If you do this twice more, I will have to block you!! Please, if you want to upload an image, talk to me on my talkpage and I can see what kind of license we can try to use (like WP:Fair Use) in order to consider uploading it. You cannot violate WP:COPYRIGHT!! Please be very careful with the sources of the information you use - I believe you are acting in good faith, but your edits continually violate or skim copyright violations in several ways. You need to stop doing this or you will be blocked eventually. Regards Buckshot06 (talk) 10:16, 2 April 2016 (UTC)
- I note you've done this also at File:Egyptian Apache Helicopters flying in the Sinai in July 2015.png. If I find you have done this once more, I will block you for a short period. Stop uploading images that violate copyright!! Buckshot06 (talk) 10:22, 2 April 2016 (UTC)
- I have taken a look at your deleted user contributions and found a number of other files that have been deleted for copyright concerns, for example File:EAF F-16C block 40 from 272 TFB is parked on the flightline at a Saudi airbase taking part in the action above Yemen in May of 2015.jpg.

Final warning for copyright violations
Hello. I am an administrator on this wiki. Wikipedia policy requires contributions be written in your own words, with a small number of exceptions. Content found online is almost always copyright, and it is against the law for you to copy it into Wikipedia without permission. Please read and understand our copyright FAQ before editing any further, because any further violations will result in your editing privileges being revoked without further warning. MER-C 04:28, 10 April 2016 (UTC)
- I am just about to block you. This edit reveals this content copied straight in from Tim Ripley's "Middle East Air Power in the 21st Century", bottom of page 65. In view of the constant number of copy-right violating image uploads, and repeated text copyright infringement, this block will be for four months. Do not try to edit anonymously while you are blocked!! Your other IP addresses will be blocked!! Buckshot06 (talk) 23:23, 10 April 2016 (UTC)
- In addition, you restored over 5 kB of copyrighted text IMMEDIATELY after MER-C warned you! [1]
- In accordance with normal procedure, you can edit this page while blocked, in order to appeal your block. I will also ask @MER-C: to review this decision. Buckshot06 (talk) 23:27, 10 April 2016 (UTC)
- @Buckshot06: It's a sound block, but should have been indefinite. There is some serious competence issues because it is apparent this editor doesn't even read the text (s)he pastes in -- look at that last paragraph. MER-C 00:02, 11 April 2016 (UTC)
- Oh yes - at heart he's a proud Egyptian, and has some English comprehension problems. He's editing from Switzerland (see section above) and will probably switch to editing via the newly-arrived Lausanne etc IP addresses that have popped up at Egyptian Air Force and sundry; I think we will probably have to block those addresses in time. Thoughts @MER-C: ? Buckshot06 (talk) 00:33, 11 April 2016 (UTC)
- I'm not Egyptian, I'm Swiss, Live in Bern, people like you don't have only (blocked) good permissions required to be used in order to penalize like Americans when they find something is not suitable for them, impose sanctions on others, I'm fed up of your threats, stop!!.

- If you wish to edit on this site, you will have to abide by its' rules, including those on copyright. Otherwise people infringing copyright wouldn't mean just you not being able to edit, but eventually the entire site closing! Should you wish to appeal your block, there is an extant procedure which you can find at Wikipedia:Appealing a block. Regards Buckshot06 (talk) 02:19, 11 April 2016 (UTC)

Decline reason:
What exactly have you learned? Given your repeated warnings which you appeared to actively ignore, what's changed now? Yamla (talk) 21:02, 24 April 2016 (UTC)
If you want to make any further unblock requests, please read the guide to appealing blocks first, then use the {{unblock}} template again. If you make too many unconvincing or disruptive unblock requests, you may be prevented from editing this page until your block has expired. Do not remove this unblock review while you are blocked.
- @Yamla:, @MER-C: Yamla, MER-C would say, I believe, that this block needs to be extended indefinitely. What would your opinion be? Buckshot06 (talk) 01:37, 25 April 2016 (UTC)
