Thanks a lot for adding the source! Now it is ok. Alex2006 (talk) 17:46, 28 July 2012 (UTC)[reply]

Hi there, regarding Wikipedia talk:Articles for creation/Israel and state terrorism, as you may or may not know, the subject of the article you're submitting probably could not possibly be more contentious, and I'd really recommend you tighten up the article as much as you can. Along those lines:

  1. Where is the definition of the reference for "FIDH"? I see the article uses the reference tag but doesn't define it, leaving several refs blank.
  2. I recommend you resolve the [citation needed] in the lead
  3. Double-check to make sure the things the article includes under "state terrorism" are backed up as "state terrorism" by the sources cited. For example, the articles at refs [4] and [5] do not use the word "terrorism." Things like this could very easily cause the article to be rejected under WP:V grounds. Also, the Human Rights Watch reference does not use the word "terrorism." Even if the underlying reference mentions "terrorism", that might not be enough, the reference would probably have to say "state terrorism" specifically for it to survive a challenge, and it will get challenged. This higher level of scrutiny will happen because, again, of the very contentious nature of the article's subject.

I'm not officially reviewing it, and I am not even saying that these issues would or would not cause the article to be rejected, but I came across it and thought I'd just try to give you this bit of helpful advice. Good luck with it, I'll keep my eye on it. Zad68 19:33, 3 August 2012 (UTC)[reply]

Following on from where I mentioned above that the references used don't say "terrorism" in some cases, I did notice sometimes instead the references do say "human rights," and reading the text of the article I thought that "human rights" is actually more the focus of the article anyway. I thought about suggesting you rename your article "Israel and human rights" and refocus it a bit, but then I noticed Wikipedia already has an article Human rights in Israel that covers really a lot of the same subject area of this article, and such duplication of material could get the article rejected under "Wikipedia already has an article on this." Your course of action should probably be to remove all the human-rights material from this article that is already covered under Human rights in Israel and make sure the article only includes material directly described as "state terrorism" by Israel in the sources. This is a tough area to edit, good luck. Zad68 19:57, 3 August 2012 (UTC)[reply]

Your name has been mentioned in connection with a sockpuppetry case. Please refer to Wikipedia:Sockpuppet investigations/MohammedBinAbdullah for evidence. Please make sure you make yourself familiar with the guide to responding to cases before editing the evidence page. Darkness Shines (talk) 20:51, 3 August 2012 (UTC)[reply]

Hello, I'm Darkness Shines. I noticed that you recently removed some content from Terrorism in Russia without explaining why. In the future, it would be helpful to others if you described your changes to Wikipedia with an edit summary. If you think I made a mistake, or if you have any questions, you can leave me a message on my talk page. Thanks, Darkness Shines (talk) 20:55, 3 August 2012 (UTC)[reply]

I tried to move the article manually. Hitstitlehitstitle (talk) 21:01, 3 August 2012 (UTC)[reply]
