Hey Bob,
Out of curiosity, have you previously edited on Wikipedia using a different user name? NickCT ( talk) 20:24, 9 July 2011 (UTC)
Unless you have been editing under this account then the remark to which you responded on NickCT's talk page did not concern you (even if it had, I'm not sure what bearing my past mistakes would have re. your current, alleged, misbehaviour).
In one of your edits on this page you referred to a discussion on the BLP noticeboard. I'm curious what the result of that discussion was, but I couldn't find it. I found the noticeboard, but I found no discussion for Amin Rashid.
Can you please tell me where to find it?

Hi, as an agreeable solution. I will not oppose the removal of the content that says that the maid has filed a claim of libel against the New York Post. I don't really agree with its removal but I more oppose repeating the claimed libel/insult in our article. If more libel charges are presented and the issue of claimed defamatory articles is reported and raised in profile I reserve an option to re-present the first legal case for reconsideration/discussion/consensus inclusion. I hope this is an agreeable solution and we can request the lowering off the protection on the article and end the dispute. Regards. Off2riorob ( talk) 00:16, 18 July 2011 (UTC)

Welcome to Wikipedia and thank you for
your contributions. I am glad to see that you are discussing a topic. However, as a
general rule, talk pages (including user talk pages) are for discussion related to improving (a) an encyclopedia article in specific ways based on
reliable sources or (b) project
policies and guidelines. They are
not for general discussion about the article topic or unrelated topics, or statements based on your thoughts or feelings. If you have specific questions about certain topics, consider visiting
our reference desk and asking them there instead of on article talk pages. I am referring to your repeated promotion of the theory that all Jews should be called "Middle Eastern" which is not backed by any reliable sources.

You currently appear to be engaged in an
edit war according to the reverts you have made on
List of Middle Eastern superheroes. This means that you are repeatedly changing content back to how you think it should be although other editors disagree. Users are expected to
collaborate with others, to avoid editing
disruptively, and to
try to reach a consensus, rather than repeatedly undoing other users' edits once it is known that there is a disagreement.
Points to note:
If you find yourself in an editing dispute, use the article's talk page to discuss controversial changes and work towards a version that represents consensus among editors. You can post a request for help at an appropriate noticeboard or seek dispute resolution. In some cases, it may be appropriate to request temporary page protection. If you engage in an edit war, you may be blocked from editing. Rsk6400 ( talk) 06:41, 31 March 2021 (UTC)

Not only was your opening statement not neutral, you should not, 3 days into an RfC, decide there is agreement and change the article to suit your preferred version. Unless everyone is in agreement, the person starting the RfC should not close it although you could have withdrawn it, but not to go forum shopping - FTN isn't for dispute resolution. It would also have been courteous although not required to close it properly with the appropriate templates to make it obvious it was closed. Doug Weller talk 12:07, 2 April 2021 (UTC)

TrangaBellam ( talk) 11:09, 30 November 2021 (UTC)
In response to your request for arbitration titled "One sided fight with Huldra", the Arbitration Committee has agreed that arbitration is not required at this stage. Arbitration on Wikipedia is a lengthy, complicated process that involves the unilateral adjudication of a dispute by an elected committee. Although the Committee's decisions can be useful to certain disputes, in many cases the actual process of arbitration is unenjoyable and time-consuming. Moreover, for most disputes the community maintains an effective set of mechanisms for reaching a compromise or resolving a grievance.
Disputes among editors regarding the content of an article should use structured discussion on the talk page between the disputing editors. However, requests for comment, third opinions and other venues are available if discussion alone does not yield a consensus. The dispute resolution noticeboard also exists as a method of resolving content disputes that aren't easily resolved with talk page discussion.
In all cases, you should review Wikipedia:Dispute resolution to learn more about resolving disputes on Wikipedia. The English Wikipedia community has many venues for resolving disputes and grievances, and it is important to explore them instead of requesting arbitration in the first instance. For more information on the process of arbitration, please see the Arbitration Policy and the Guide to Arbitration. I hope this advice is useful, and please do not hesitate to contact myself or a member of the community if you have more questions. GeneralNotability ( talk) 00:30, 2 December 2021 (UTC)

Thank you for uploading File:Flotilla injured israeli soldier.jpg. However, there is a concern that the rationale provided for using this file on Wikipedia may not meet the criteria required by Wikipedia:Non-free content. This can be corrected by going to the file description page and adding or clarifying the reason why the file qualifies under this policy. Adding and completing one of the templates available from Wikipedia:Non-free use rationale guideline is an easy way to ensure that your file is in compliance with Wikipedia policy. Please be aware that a non-free use rationale is not the same as an image copyright tag; descriptions for files used under the non-free content policy require both a copyright tag and a non-free use rationale.
If it is determined that the file does not qualify under the non-free content policy, it might be deleted by an administrator seven days after the file was tagged in accordance with section F7 of the criteria for speedy deletion. If you have any questions, please ask them at the media copyright questions page. Thank you. — Diannaa ( talk) 21:16, 3 December 2021 (UTC)
I have requested administrative reversion of your undiscussed page move against consensus. Doing this is disruptive, I suggest you not repeat it. Thank you. Selfstudier ( talk) 19:35, 7 December 2021 (UTC)
If a user harasses you, that would solve the issue and it seems from past edits that you might be a victim of hounding and, therefore, you could use that to make a case for an interaction ban with the perpretrator.
On an aside, taking a break from editing on Wikipedia might help you tremendously too. MarioSuperstar77 ( talk) 14:22, 8 December 2021 (UTC)
Thanks for uploading File:Flotilla injured israeli soldier.jpg. The image description page currently specifies that the image is non-free and may only be used on Wikipedia under a claim of fair use. However, the image is currently not used in any articles on Wikipedia. If the image was previously in an article, please go to the article and see why it was removed. You may add it back if you think that that will be useful. However, please note that images for which a replacement could be created are not acceptable for use on Wikipedia (see our policy for non-free media).
Note that any non-free images not used in any articles will be deleted after seven days, as described in section F5 of the criteria for speedy deletion. Thank you. -- B-bot ( talk) 18:12, 9 December 2021 (UTC)
Bob, have you read WP:ONUS? Do you see where it says While information must be verifiable for inclusion in an article, not all verifiable information must be included. Consensus may determine that certain information does not improve an article. Such information should be omitted or presented instead in a different article. The onus to achieve consensus for inclusion is on those seeking to include disputed content.? Do you believe your insertion has consensus? Do you agree that there have been good faith policy based reasons for why the material should be removed? Those things being the case, the blanket re-insertion is a violation of WP:ONUS, and repeatedly reverting, no matter if it is once an hour, once a day, or once a week is edit-warring. nableezy - 00:02, 11 December 2021 (UTC)
The following topic ban now applies to you:
6 month topic ban from from editing or discussing anything to do with the WP:ARBPIA topic area, broadly construed.
You have been sanctioned for the reasons provided in response to this arbitration enforcement request.
This topic ban is imposed in my capacity as an uninvolved administrator under the authority of the Arbitration Committee's decision at Wikipedia:Arbitration/Index/Palestine-Israel articles#Final decision and, if applicable, the procedure described at Wikipedia:Arbitration Committee/Discretionary sanctions. This sanction has been recorded in the log of sanctions. Please read WP:TBAN to understand what a topic ban is. If you do not comply with the topic ban, you may be blocked for an extended period to enforce the ban.
If you wish to appeal the ban, please read the appeals process. You are free to contact me on my talk page if anything of the above is unclear to you. Euryalus ( talk) 23:29, 12 December 2021 (UTC)
Hi Bob drobbs, appreciate this is not the outcome you would have preferred but your ongoing battleground and WP:TE approach to this area is disruptive to a collaborative editing environment. There was consensus at AE for a topic ban but less consensus on its length, so in the spirit of good faith I've applied a time-limited ban as the milder option. This time-limited ban is intended to prevent further battleground conduct, but is not a "punishment." If you edit elsewhere in a constructive manner then you'll be more than welcome back to ARBPIA when the topic ban expires.
I mentioned at AE a warning about weaponising disputes but on balance did not include this in the remedy. However as a mild suggestion only, please consider how dispute resolution might be more reasonably used in future as large parts of the filings could have been avoided with more discussion between editors. Per the template above, happy to discuss further if required. -- Euryalus ( talk) 23:46, 12 December 2021 (UTC)

Any administrator may impose sanctions on editors who do not strictly follow Wikipedia's policies, or the page-specific restrictions, when making edits related to the topic.
For additional information, please see the guidance on discretionary sanctions and the Arbitration Committee's decision here. If you have any questions, or any doubts regarding what edits are appropriate, you are welcome to discuss them with me or any other editor.

Welcome to Wikipedia and thank you for
your contributions. I am glad to see that you are discussing a topic. However, as a
general rule, talk pages (including user talk pages) are for discussion related to improving (a) an encyclopedia article in specific ways based on
reliable sources or (b) project
policies and guidelines. They are
not for general discussion about the article topic or unrelated topics, or statements based on your thoughts or feelings. If you have specific questions about certain topics, consider visiting
our reference desk and asking them there instead of on article talk pages. I am referring to your repeated promotion of the theory that all Jews should be called "Middle Eastern" which is not backed by any reliable sources.

You currently appear to be engaged in an
edit war according to the reverts you have made on
List of Middle Eastern superheroes. This means that you are repeatedly changing content back to how you think it should be although other editors disagree. Users are expected to
collaborate with others, to avoid editing
disruptively, and to
try to reach a consensus, rather than repeatedly undoing other users' edits once it is known that there is a disagreement.
Points to note:
If you find yourself in an editing dispute, use the article's talk page to discuss controversial changes and work towards a version that represents consensus among editors. You can post a request for help at an appropriate noticeboard or seek dispute resolution. In some cases, it may be appropriate to request temporary page protection. If you engage in an edit war, you may be blocked from editing. Rsk6400 ( talk) 06:41, 31 March 2021 (UTC)

Not only was your opening statement not neutral, you should not, 3 days into an RfC, decide there is agreement and change the article to suit your preferred version. Unless everyone is in agreement, the person starting the RfC should not close it although you could have withdrawn it, but not to go forum shopping - FTN isn't for dispute resolution. It would also have been courteous although not required to close it properly with the appropriate templates to make it obvious it was closed. Doug Weller talk 12:07, 2 April 2021 (UTC)

Well, I was all ready to accept the draft and move it main space, but the title already exists as a redirect. I have requested the redirect to be deleted. Once that happens, the article can be accepted. S0091 ( talk) 19:50, 12 September 2021 (UTC)

.Thanks again, and happy editing!
S0091 ( talk) 23:12, 12 September 2021 (UTC)I don't know if that was your intent, but after you posted this on my talk page, I went to see what the issue was, and some may view this as WP:CANVASSING. So in the future, please refrain from this. You can ask for guidance in boards set up for that purpose, like /info/en/?search=Wikipedia:Dispute_resolution_noticeboard Inf-in MD ( talk) 22:48, 1 October 2021 (UTC)
Wikipedia:Reverting "A single edit may reverse multiple prior edits, in which case the edit constitutes multiple reversions."
Kindly self revert one or other of your edits. Thank you.

A word to the wise. The talk page conversations and some of the recent editing are a bit troubling, I think. You have also mentioned escalation, such threats might come back to haunt you, WP:BOOMERANG. My advice, step back a bit. Selfstudier ( talk) 22:09, 5 October 2021 (UTC)
Diff How do you reconcile the diff with the edit summary "Previous version had all sorts of misplaced sentence fragments"? Selfstudier ( talk) 20:34, 7 October 2021 (UTC)
According to critics, including the Anti-Defamation League, BDS is antisemitic,[13] has elements of anti-Semitism,[14] seeks to delegitimize Israel,[15] and/or resembles historical discrimination against Jews.

The article will be discussed at Wikipedia:Articles for deletion/David Collier (political activist) until a consensus is reached, and anyone, including you, is welcome to contribute to the discussion. The nomination will explain the policies and guidelines which are of concern. The discussion focuses on high-quality evidence and our policies and guidelines.
Users may edit the article during the discussion, including to improve the article to address concerns raised in the discussion. However, do not remove the article-for-deletion notice from the top of the article.

In response to your request for arbitration titled "One sided fight with Huldra", the Arbitration Committee has agreed that arbitration is not required at this stage. Arbitration on Wikipedia is a lengthy, complicated process that involves the unilateral adjudication of a dispute by an elected committee. Although the Committee's decisions can be useful to certain disputes, in many cases the actual process of arbitration is unenjoyable and time-consuming. Moreover, for most disputes the community maintains an effective set of mechanisms for reaching a compromise or resolving a grievance.
Disputes among editors regarding the content of an article should use structured discussion on the talk page between the disputing editors. However, requests for comment, third opinions and other venues are available if discussion alone does not yield a consensus. The dispute resolution noticeboard also exists as a method of resolving content disputes that aren't easily resolved with talk page discussion.
In all cases, you should review Wikipedia:Dispute resolution to learn more about resolving disputes on Wikipedia. The English Wikipedia community has many venues for resolving disputes and grievances, and it is important to explore them instead of requesting arbitration in the first instance. For more information on the process of arbitration, please see the Arbitration Policy and the Guide to Arbitration. I hope this advice is useful, and please do not hesitate to contact myself or a member of the community if you have more questions. GeneralNotability ( talk) 00:30, 2 December 2021 (UTC)

Thank you for uploading File:Flotilla injured israeli soldier.jpg. However, there is a concern that the rationale provided for using this file on Wikipedia may not meet the criteria required by Wikipedia:Non-free content. This can be corrected by going to the file description page and adding or clarifying the reason why the file qualifies under this policy. Adding and completing one of the templates available from Wikipedia:Non-free use rationale guideline is an easy way to ensure that your file is in compliance with Wikipedia policy. Please be aware that a non-free use rationale is not the same as an image copyright tag; descriptions for files used under the non-free content policy require both a copyright tag and a non-free use rationale.
If it is determined that the file does not qualify under the non-free content policy, it might be deleted by an administrator seven days after the file was tagged in accordance with section F7 of the criteria for speedy deletion. If you have any questions, please ask them at the media copyright questions page. Thank you. — Diannaa ( talk) 21:16, 3 December 2021 (UTC)
I have requested administrative reversion of your undiscussed page move against consensus. Doing this is disruptive, I suggest you not repeat it. Thank you. Selfstudier ( talk) 19:35, 7 December 2021 (UTC)
If a user harasses you, that would solve the issue and it seems from past edits that you might be a victim of hounding and, therefore, you could use that to make a case for an interaction ban with the perpretrator.
On an aside, taking a break from editing on Wikipedia might help you tremendously too. MarioSuperstar77 ( talk) 14:22, 8 December 2021 (UTC)
Thanks for uploading File:Flotilla injured israeli soldier.jpg. The image description page currently specifies that the image is non-free and may only be used on Wikipedia under a claim of fair use. However, the image is currently not used in any articles on Wikipedia. If the image was previously in an article, please go to the article and see why it was removed. You may add it back if you think that that will be useful. However, please note that images for which a replacement could be created are not acceptable for use on Wikipedia (see our policy for non-free media).
Note that any non-free images not used in any articles will be deleted after seven days, as described in section F5 of the criteria for speedy deletion. Thank you. -- B-bot ( talk) 18:12, 9 December 2021 (UTC)
Bob, have you read WP:ONUS? Do you see where it says While information must be verifiable for inclusion in an article, not all verifiable information must be included. Consensus may determine that certain information does not improve an article. Such information should be omitted or presented instead in a different article. The onus to achieve consensus for inclusion is on those seeking to include disputed content.? Do you believe your insertion has consensus? Do you agree that there have been good faith policy based reasons for why the material should be removed? Those things being the case, the blanket re-insertion is a violation of WP:ONUS, and repeatedly reverting, no matter if it is once an hour, once a day, or once a week is edit-warring. nableezy - 00:02, 11 December 2021 (UTC)
The following topic ban now applies to you:
6 month topic ban from from editing or discussing anything to do with the WP:ARBPIA topic area, broadly construed.
You have been sanctioned for the reasons provided in response to this arbitration enforcement request.
This topic ban is imposed in my capacity as an uninvolved administrator under the authority of the Arbitration Committee's decision at Wikipedia:Arbitration/Index/Palestine-Israel articles#Final decision and, if applicable, the procedure described at Wikipedia:Arbitration Committee/Discretionary sanctions. This sanction has been recorded in the log of sanctions. Please read WP:TBAN to understand what a topic ban is. If you do not comply with the topic ban, you may be blocked for an extended period to enforce the ban.
If you wish to appeal the ban, please read the appeals process. You are free to contact me on my talk page if anything of the above is unclear to you. Euryalus ( talk) 23:29, 12 December 2021 (UTC)
Hi Bob drobbs, appreciate this is not the outcome you would have preferred but your ongoing battleground and WP:TE approach to this area is disruptive to a collaborative editing environment. There was consensus at AE for a topic ban but less consensus on its length, so in the spirit of good faith I've applied a time-limited ban as the milder option. This time-limited ban is intended to prevent further battleground conduct, but is not a "punishment." If you edit elsewhere in a constructive manner then you'll be more than welcome back to ARBPIA when the topic ban expires.
I mentioned at AE a warning about weaponising disputes but on balance did not include this in the remedy. However as a mild suggestion only, please consider how dispute resolution might be more reasonably used in future as large parts of the filings could have been avoided with more discussion between editors. Per the template above, happy to discuss further if required. -- Euryalus ( talk) 23:46, 12 December 2021 (UTC)
Bob, if youd like, I would be happy to give you my thoughts on what happened, why, and what the best way forward would be for you. But Im not sure those thoughts are welcome, so lmk if they are. nableezy - 15:36, 15 December 2021 (UTC)
Comment The way forward is pretty much clear if you want your tb shortened is to show that you productive editor that means creating DYKs or improving articles to GA or FA. -- Shrike ( talk) 17:54, 15 December 2021 (UTC)
