Welcome!

Hi HistorySpeaksWiki! I noticed your contributions and wanted to welcome you to the Wikipedia community. I hope you like it here and decide to stay.

I've noticed that you've expressed an interest in the Arab–Israeli conflict. Unfortunately, due to a history of conflict and disruptive editing it has been designated a contentious topic and is subject to some strict rules.

The rule that affects you most as a new or IP editor is the prohibition on making any edit related to the Arab–Israel conflict unless you are logged into an account and that account is at least 30 days old and has made at least 500 edits.

This prohibition is broadly construed, so it includes edits such as adding the reaction of a public figure concerning the conflict to their article or noting the position of a company or organization as it relates to the conflict.

The exception to this rule is that you may request a specific change to an article on the talk page of that article or at this page. Please ensure that your requested edit complies with our neutral point of view and reliable sourcing policies, and if the edit is about a living person our policies on biographies of living people as well.

Any edits you make contrary to these rules are likely to be reverted, and repeated violations can lead to you being blocked from editing.

Wrong author on AOAV article

The AOAV article [1] clearly says "By Matthew Ghobrial Cockerill on 28 Oct 2024" but the metadata on the page gives the author as Iain Overton and that's what Wikipedia grabs for automatic generation of a citation. I think AOAV should fix this. NadVolum (talk) 23:46, 30 October 2024 (UTC)[reply]

Ah gotcha. I'll get in contact with them. HistorySpeaksWiki (talk) 01:14, 16 November 2024 (UTC)[reply]
