Notability/relevance? It's like hyper-local New York City congressional district social media twitter editorials. and a large portion of the section is a hot take written by a unrelated(especially to the article) person.

There is no Israeli occupation of Palestine. The West Bank was captured legally in a defensive war according to international law. Please delete the article or rephrase 173.77.234.45 ( talk) 12:13, 16 February 2024 (UTC)

Watermelon stereotype was removed from the WP:SEEALSO by User:XTheBedrockX section because a link to it is already in the main body. That section, including to the link to Watermelon stereotype, was later blanked out by an IP account with only one edit that is now blocked from eight other pages for some reason. The edit summary states that the blocked account thinks that the Hakeem Jeffries controversy section is "incerdibly trivial and tangentially related" to the topic. I disagree, and I don't think consensus was reached, but instead of reinstating the section because of the opposition from commenters on the talk page about I've added Watermelon stereotype to a "not to be confused with" template. My own edit summary is not completely accurate which is one reason I brought it to the talk page. Others might want to add it back to the see also section, but it the page subject is the polar opposite of a racial stereotype so I thought differentiating it into a "not to be confused with" template was more appropriate.

The meme/lie the NY Times perpetuated about "arrests for carrying slices of watermelon" is from a decades old satirical newspaper that went out of business in 1993.

there was an Israeli satirical newspaper named “חשדות” but the New York Times didn’t know it was satirical, probably because they didn’t have google translate or a lot of sources to research about the Israeli media
a site that was made by one of the newspapers’ creator explaining about the purpose of it and much more satirical articles they published throughout the years 654nnn ( talk) 11:48, 10 April 2024 (UTC)
