WP:BRD

Hi, you reverted some of my content in Six-day War without reasons here, and referring to WP:BRD. That essay says "Don't invoke BRD as your reason for reverting someone else's work", so you may have misunderstood the essay. However, in the spirit of co-operation I entered the test into the talkpage in case Poliocretes (or someone else) has comments concerning it. I entered more detailed reasons addressing Polioctetes' concern so there may in fact be no disagreement concerning the text.

BTW, you also reverted some text that Poliocretes hadn't reverted (this may have been a clerical error). Cheers, --Dailycare (talk) 22:29, 28 February 2012 (UTC)

Killings and massacres during the 1948 Palestine War

Your recent edit [1] of the table has led to a referencing error where the reference appears in the text and not as a reference. Your edit is also poor grammatically - A capital letter appears in the middle of a sentence and the sentence as a whole no longer makes sense. There are copious RS documenting the Irgun bomb attack that that killed and injured the Arab workers, triggering the riot. E.g. Spencer Tucker, Priscilla Roberts (2008) The Encyclopedia of the Arab-Israeli Conflict [4 volumes]: A Political, Social, and Military History Volume 1 A-H pg 415 [2]; Efraim Karsh (2002) The Arab-Israeli Conflict: The Palestine War 1948 pg 8 [3]. I am loath to amend your edit due to 1RR. I would ask that you consider reverting the edit and I will happily add the additional RS. Dlv999 (talk) 14:32, 29 February 2012 (UTC)

I will revert myself if you add other sources and remove Pappe--Shrike (talk) 14:39, 29 February 2012 (UTC)
