Hello, Iskandar323. Thank you for your work on Nakba denial. User:Lightburst, while examining this page as a part of our page curation process, had the following comments:
I have reviewed the article. I cannot see the deleted article from the 2011 AfD but this article appears to be acurate based on the references. It appears from the previous AfD that the article was called out as synth and OR; I do not see that issue in this article. Well done, thanks for the article.

Iskandar323 I don't know whether you are kidding around or you seriously thought that article was going to fly as it was, but I don't think a period of international tension is the right time to be stoking the flames on Wikipedia. I find sectarian conflicts extremely distasteful but I am not going to avoid the topic as many will do. Can you explain why the article only expresses one point of view and why it often does so in the voice of Wikipedia stating opinions as facts? —DIYeditor ( talk) 11:17, 21 October 2023 (UTC)

On 12 January 2024, Did you know was updated with a fact from the article Nakba denial, which you recently created, substantially expanded, or brought to good article status. The fact was ... that Nakba denial is a form of historical negationism pertaining to the 1948 Palestinian expulsion and flight? The nomination discussion and review may be seen at Template:Did you know nominations/Nakba denial. You are welcome to check how many pageviews the nominated article or articles got while on the front page ( here's how, Nakba denial), and the hook may be added to the statistics page after its run on the Main Page has completed. Finally, if you know of an interesting fact from another recently created article, then please feel free to suggest it on the Did you know talk page.

Your comment
here could have been made without the unnecessarily inflammatory commentary. Please try to avoid wording like hawkish Western nations have obliged Israel with its smoke and mirrors by making a big song and dance about it and cutting vital aid in advance of any proper investigation.
There are ways to get that point across that won't raise the temperature of the discussion.

Re this comment [3] at RSN, would you please redact the personal comment and confine yourself to the merits? Thanks in advance. Coretheapple ( talk) 16:10, 13 April 2024 (UTC)
It looks like you're not an admin (I'm not either). We probably need admin help to sort out the talk pages current consensus 'Israeli bombing...' and non-consensus 'bombing...', otherwise the discussions risk getting mixed up and all over the place ... Boud ( talk) 13:16, 14 April 2024 (UTC)
Greetings, I appreciate your efforts to enhance Wikipedia article quality. However, rather than merely adding tags like "single source", it would be more constructive to actively improve the articles themselves. Although I'm less experienced, I hope you'll be open to feedback from a fellow Wikipedian. Cwainman ( talk) 10:55, 15 April 2024 (UTC)
Bro, why are you removing information from articles? Elekonsult ( talk) 13:38, 17 April 2024 (UTC)
You removed information on the Netzah Yehuda Battalion page because of the source. The information you removed included
“The battalion had its first casualty on August 19, 2006, when a member of the Al-Aqsa Martyrs' Brigades shot and killed Staff Sergeant Roi Farjoun of Yehud at the Beka'otCheckpoint east of Nablus. A nearby Netzah Yehuda soldier then opened fire, and killed the attacker.”
The source is the Israeli Ministry of Foreign Affairs. You dispute this source?
Here are two other news articles discussing what you removed because you claimed it was unreliable

Hi, what is your opinion on nominating the " Wahhabism" page to good article nomination? I thought it might be good to analyze its pros and cons. The main negative is that the page suffers from constant disruptive editing, so without some sort of permanent protection (extended-confirmed, in my opinion), the page may deteriorate in quality over time. Shadowwarrior8 ( talk) 7:20, 5 May 2024 (UTC)
Can you help out and keep an eye on this article? Especially considering these types of edits. There seems to be edits by a user with a seemingly biased POV on several topics on Islam, Southeast Asia, India/Hinduism. I'm concerned as there has been users in the past (who were banned as sockpuppets, etc.) who have edited Southeast Asian Islam articles, with a undue and often inaccurate emphasis or inclusion of forced conversions, often misinterpreting sources and scholarly consensus. More eyes needed on relatively niche topics where it has been fashionable for biased users to make edits in subjects related to Islam and/or Hinduism. SlackingViceroy ( talk) 00:33, 12 May 2024 (UTC)
Hey, I reverted this. Can you rewrite your comment? Something technical went wrong. VR (Please ping on reply) 18:41, 23 May 2024 (UTC)
Hi
The article should be moved to International propagation of Wahhabism because the article is about Saudi's interpretation. Centered sources are about wahhabism. If the article is about others interpretations, like Muslim Brotherhood or Asian group, it should be named International propagation of Islamism by Saudi Arabia.

Your Opinion is More Important than You Think Barnstar | |
I'm far from the first to tell you this, but you're in the news! What made that so barnstar-worthy to me was that the news media found that one particular comment of yours to be so representative of the consensus position that I've seen the same quote from you in nearly every single news article about the RfC. Out of 833 comments from 122 people, yours was undoubtedly the most notable. Vanilla Wizard 💙 12:19, 21 June 2024 (UTC) |

On 3 July 2024, Did you know was updated with a fact from the article Adnan al-Bursh, which you recently created, substantially expanded, or brought to good article status.

This edit, what is that, a prior version of the page, it is a mass reversion of some description, or what? Selfstudier ( talk) 14:25, 28 July 2024 (UTC)
Hi; at topics related to the
Israel-Arab conflict, editors are restricted to one revert every 24 hours: An editor must not perform more than one reverts on a single page—whether involving the same or different material—within a 24-hour period. An edit or a series of consecutive edits that undoes or manually reverses other editors' actions—whether in whole or in part—counts as a revert.
You have made six reverts within a 24 hour period:
Please self-revert what you can to bring yourself back into compliance. BilledMammal ( talk) 18:46, 28 July 2024 (UTC)

“The battalion had its first casualty on August 19, 2006, when a member of the Al-Aqsa Martyrs' Brigades shot and killed Staff Sergeant Roi Farjoun of Yehud at the Beka'otCheckpoint east of Nablus. A nearby Netzah Yehuda soldier then opened fire, and killed the attacker.”
The source is the Israeli Ministry of Foreign Affairs. You dispute this source?
Here are two other news articles discussing what you removed because you claimed it was unreliable

After all more than a third of the comments there are yours. I was accused of bludgeoning on the ADL RfC when only about 20% of the comments there were mine (and you were close behind me there...)

Hi, what is your opinion on nominating the " Wahhabism" page to good article nomination? I thought it might be good to analyze its pros and cons. The main negative is that the page suffers from constant disruptive editing, so without some sort of permanent protection (extended-confirmed, in my opinion), the page may deteriorate in quality over time. Shadowwarrior8 ( talk) 7:20, 5 May 2024 (UTC)
Can you help out and keep an eye on this article? Especially considering these types of edits. There seems to be edits by a user with a seemingly biased POV on several topics on Islam, Southeast Asia, India/Hinduism. I'm concerned as there has been users in the past (who were banned as sockpuppets, etc.) who have edited Southeast Asian Islam articles, with a undue and often inaccurate emphasis or inclusion of forced conversions, often misinterpreting sources and scholarly consensus. More eyes needed on relatively niche topics where it has been fashionable for biased users to make edits in subjects related to Islam and/or Hinduism. SlackingViceroy ( talk) 00:33, 12 May 2024 (UTC)
Hey, I reverted this. Can you rewrite your comment? Something technical went wrong. VR (Please ping on reply) 18:41, 23 May 2024 (UTC)
Hi
The article should be moved to International propagation of Wahhabism because the article is about Saudi's interpretation. Centered sources are about wahhabism. If the article is about others interpretations, like Muslim Brotherhood or Asian group, it should be named International propagation of Islamism by Saudi Arabia.

Your Opinion is More Important than You Think Barnstar | |
I'm far from the first to tell you this, but you're in the news! What made that so barnstar-worthy to me was that the news media found that one particular comment of yours to be so representative of the consensus position that I've seen the same quote from you in nearly every single news article about the RfC. Out of 833 comments from 122 people, yours was undoubtedly the most notable. Vanilla Wizard 💙 12:19, 21 June 2024 (UTC) |

The work you do is valuable.
I saw many articles, in the wake of the ADL controversy, attempt to paint you as some sort of mastermind of a nefarious process, despite the clearly collaborative work on here. It seemed unfair coverage, and I wanted to give some encouragement that the work you do is appreciated. I hope you are doing well, and congrats on your works.

The Defender of the Wiki Barnstar |
Thank you for your tireless efforts to protect facts and proper media analysis, in the face of bad actors who wish to redefine basic concepts in the service of a specific state's PR.
I'm sure you'll receive a lot of pressure in the coming months due to your highly reported-on stance in the ADL discussion, so just know that there are reasonable people who see and appreciate you. LaughingManiac ( talk) 22:23, 30 June 2024 (UTC) |
On 3 July 2024, Did you know was updated with a fact from the article Adnan al-Bursh, which you recently created, substantially expanded, or brought to good article status. The fact was ... that orthopedic surgeon Adnan al-Bursh had also served as an advisor to the Palestine national football team before dying in an Israeli prison? The nomination discussion and review may be seen at Template:Did you know nominations/Adnan al-Bursh. You are welcome to check how many pageviews the nominated article or articles got while on the front page ( here's how, Adnan al-Bursh), and the hook may be added to the statistics page after its run on the Main Page has completed. Finally, if you know of an interesting fact from another recently created article, then please feel free to suggest it on the Did you know talk page.

i didn't want people say, it is linked to Islamic terrorism and not Islamist, negate the fact that for longest time - wiki has used Islamist to describe 9/11 We can change it to your suggestion - if my talk/rfc proved unsuccessful Gsgdd ( talk) 02:12, 7 July 2024 (UTC)
If you want only part of the article to be subject to Arbpia/CT restrictions, then the templates need to be changed (and if it is not clear, the parts of the article covered/not covered need to be identified). Selfstudier ( talk) 12:13, 7 July 2024 (UTC)

This edit, what is that, a prior version of the page, it is a mass reversion of some description, or what? Selfstudier ( talk) 14:25, 28 July 2024 (UTC)
Hi; at topics related to the
Israel-Arab conflict, editors are restricted to one revert every 24 hours: An editor must not perform more than one reverts on a single page—whether involving the same or different material—within a 24-hour period. An edit or a series of consecutive edits that undoes or manually reverses other editors' actions—whether in whole or in part—counts as a revert.
You have made six reverts within a 24 hour period:
Please self-revert what you can to bring yourself back into compliance. BilledMammal ( talk) 18:46, 28 July 2024 (UTC)
