Request reason:
Reverting obvious vandalism is NOT WP:EW. Revision history of Meir Kahane shows that I provided reasons for all reverts and requested DISCUSSION prior to further editing many times. Editor, in fact, has been warned. This diff shows that another long-time editor, whose views are opposite to mine, also believes that I was reverting obvious vandalism.

Hi Wiking: Thank you for your contributions. You recently created a number of categories relating to Jewish history that all had a similar minor spelling problem, a "H" instead of "h" for "Category:Jewish ____ history". I have nominated them for speedy changes at Wikipedia:Categories for discussion/Speedy#Add requests for speedy renaming here with the request that: "The following new categories in Category:Jewish history by country need to be changed from "History" to "history" per - C2A (C2A = Renaming or merging.

This is a reminder that United States Recognition of Israel is an ARBPIA article, and is under 1RR restrictions. You made two reverts today:
I removed Ir Amin after the comments on talk because I felt the quote was extra and the point did not need extra emphasis, so there is no need to self-revert, but please be more careful from now on. Seraphim System ( talk) 03:50, 12 December 2017 (UTC)

Your addition has been removed or altered, as it appears to closely paraphrase a copyrighted source. Limited close paraphrasing or quotation is appropriate within reason, so long as the material is clearly attributed in the text. However, longer paraphrases which are not attributed to their source may constitute copyright violation or plagiarism, and are not acceptable on Wikipedia. Such content cannot be hosted here for legal reasons; please do not upload it. You may use external websites or printed material as a source of information, but not as a source of sentences. This part is crucial: say it in your own words.
If you own the copyright to the text, and you want to allow Wikipedia to use it — which means allowing other people to modify it — then you must verify that externally by one of the processes explained at Wikipedia:Donating copyrighted materials. If you are not the owner of the copyright but have permission from that owner, see Wikipedia:Requesting copyright permission. Wikipedia takes copyright violations very seriously and persistent violators will be blocked from editing. Thank you.
Please carefully read this information:
The Arbitration Committee has authorised discretionary sanctions to be used for pages regarding the Arab–Israeli conflict, a topic which you have edited. The Committee's decision is here.
Discretionary sanctions is a system of conduct regulation designed to minimize disruption to controversial topics. This means uninvolved administrators can impose sanctions for edits relating to the topic that do not adhere to the purpose of Wikipedia, our standards of behavior, or relevant policies. Administrators may impose sanctions such as editing restrictions, bans, or blocks. This message is to notify you that sanctions are authorised for the topic you are editing. Before continuing to edit this topic, please familiarise yourself with the discretionary sanctions system. Don't hesitate to contact me or another editor if you have any questions.Your last edit violates both 1RR and the 24 hour rule. Please self-revert or this goes to AE. Seraphim System ( talk) 02:15, 15 December 2017 (UTC)
AFAIK there is no revert exception for fixing reverts made under the exceptions. This is not the first time. You should at this point understand that this article is under a 1RR exception, that means only one revert in a 24 hour period, and also that there is a 24 hour rule - if an editor removes content that you had added, you have to wait 24 hours before you can restore it.

You have once again violated 1RR changing American to Domestic. You did this also when you changed another heading to "Local Churches" - these are not improvements, and this is a second revert, please self-revert. Seraphim System ( talk) 23:07, 18 December 2017 (UTC)
Anyway as you feel harassed and threatened, this will be my last attempt to discuss this. I am trying to discuss to avoid AE unless it is truly necessary. You are free to edit within the editing restrictions like every other I editor working on the article, including me.. You are reminded there is a 24 hour rule in effect, in addition to 1RR. If you have questions about that you can ask an admin, I usually leave the warnings to them. Seraphim System ( talk) 05:19, 19 December 2017 (UTC)
Hi there. Thanks for engaging in this discussion. Two questions: 1) You say "firstly, not necessarily true [that any sect on this page is no longer within the fold of rabbinic judaism once the practitioners adhere to a leader that describes themselves as a prophet/messiah]... I was wondering what you mean by not necessarily true? Name one case where a group was still considered rabbinically Jewish when their leader declared themselves as a messiah? Schneerson never declared self as messiah, and if I am not mistaken Sabbatai Zevi was banished from his community when he declared himself messiah and pronounced the tetragrammaton. 2) You are correct that Black Israelites do not see themselves as Rabbinic Jews, nor does the Rabbinic community claim them; however this is no different than any of the above self proclaimed messiahs that believed Judaism had been corrupted and needed to be saved by a messiah, additionally as they agitated their broader communities they too were excommunicated. 2b) Being unclaimed by the broader Jewish community and feelings of superiority over the current Jewish community is no different for the Black Israelites than it is for each of these other names listed above. 2c) Therefore the Black Israelite community is identical in its contentious relationship to the broader Jewish community as all the splinter groups listed above. — Preceding unsigned comment added by Wikifan925 ( talk • contribs) 17:09, 19 December 2017 (UTC)

Source web page:
In the 2000 election campaign, George W. Bush clearly promised to move the embassy and attacked Clinton for failing to deliver on his promise. At one point he even said he would “start the process as soon as I’m sworn in.” But like Clinton before him, once Bush entered the White House, it didn’t take long for him to walk back his promise.
Your addition:
During the presidential election campaign in 2000, George W. Bush promised to move the embassy and attacked Clinton for not keeping his own promise. He was even quoted saying that he would "start the process as soon as I’m sworn in." But like Clinton, Bush did not change the administration's position on Jerusalem after he had taken office.
Your version presents the same ideas in the same order using almost identical wording. A selection and arrangement of facts is considered creative content and is copyrightable. Content has to be written in your own words and not include any wording from the source material. Stuff should be presented in a different order where possible. Summarize rather than paraphrase. This will typically result in your version being much shorter than the source document. There's some reading material on this topic at Wikipedia:Close paraphrasing and/or have a look at the material at Purdue or study this module aimed at WikiEd students. — Diannaa 🍁 ( talk) 18:49, 24 December 2017 (UTC)

I removed Ir Amin after the comments on talk because I felt the quote was extra and the point did not need extra emphasis, so there is no need to self-revert, but please be more careful from now on. Seraphim System ( talk) 03:50, 12 December 2017 (UTC)
When did the Rebbe say outright that he was Moshiach and even if yes when was he disproven from beginning to end it should not be on the page Menachemshuch ( talk) 16:31, 12 December 2017 (UTC)
Your addition has been removed or altered, as it appears to closely paraphrase a copyrighted source. Limited close paraphrasing or quotation is appropriate within reason, so long as the material is clearly attributed in the text. However, longer paraphrases which are not attributed to their source may constitute copyright violation or plagiarism, and are not acceptable on Wikipedia. Such content cannot be hosted here for legal reasons; please do not upload it. You may use external websites or printed material as a source of information, but not as a source of sentences. This part is crucial: say it in your own words.
If you own the copyright to the text, and you want to allow Wikipedia to use it — which means allowing other people to modify it — then you must verify that externally by one of the processes explained at Wikipedia:Donating copyrighted materials. If you are not the owner of the copyright but have permission from that owner, see Wikipedia:Requesting copyright permission. Wikipedia takes copyright violations very seriously and persistent violators will be blocked from editing. Thank you.
Please carefully read this information:
The Arbitration Committee has authorised discretionary sanctions to be used for pages regarding the Arab–Israeli conflict, a topic which you have edited. The Committee's decision is here.
Discretionary sanctions is a system of conduct regulation designed to minimize disruption to controversial topics. This means uninvolved administrators can impose sanctions for edits relating to the topic that do not adhere to the purpose of Wikipedia, our standards of behavior, or relevant policies. Administrators may impose sanctions such as editing restrictions, bans, or blocks. This message is to notify you that sanctions are authorised for the topic you are editing. Before continuing to edit this topic, please familiarise yourself with the discretionary sanctions system. Don't hesitate to contact me or another editor if you have any questions.Your last edit violates both 1RR and the 24 hour rule. Please self-revert or this goes to AE. Seraphim System ( talk) 02:15, 15 December 2017 (UTC)
AFAIK there is no revert exception for fixing reverts made under the exceptions. This is not the first time. You should at this point understand that this article is under a 1RR exception, that means only one revert in a 24 hour period, and also that there is a 24 hour rule - if an editor removes content that you had added, you have to wait 24 hours before you can restore it.

You have once again violated 1RR changing American to Domestic. You did this also when you changed another heading to "Local Churches" - these are not improvements, and this is a second revert, please self-revert. Seraphim System ( talk) 23:07, 18 December 2017 (UTC)
Anyway as you feel harassed and threatened, this will be my last attempt to discuss this. I am trying to discuss to avoid AE unless it is truly necessary. You are free to edit within the editing restrictions like every other I editor working on the article, including me.. You are reminded there is a 24 hour rule in effect, in addition to 1RR. If you have questions about that you can ask an admin, I usually leave the warnings to them. Seraphim System ( talk) 05:19, 19 December 2017 (UTC)
Hi there. Thanks for engaging in this discussion. Two questions: 1) You say "firstly, not necessarily true [that any sect on this page is no longer within the fold of rabbinic judaism once the practitioners adhere to a leader that describes themselves as a prophet/messiah]... I was wondering what you mean by not necessarily true? Name one case where a group was still considered rabbinically Jewish when their leader declared themselves as a messiah? Schneerson never declared self as messiah, and if I am not mistaken Sabbatai Zevi was banished from his community when he declared himself messiah and pronounced the tetragrammaton. 2) You are correct that Black Israelites do not see themselves as Rabbinic Jews, nor does the Rabbinic community claim them; however this is no different than any of the above self proclaimed messiahs that believed Judaism had been corrupted and needed to be saved by a messiah, additionally as they agitated their broader communities they too were excommunicated. 2b) Being unclaimed by the broader Jewish community and feelings of superiority over the current Jewish community is no different for the Black Israelites than it is for each of these other names listed above. 2c) Therefore the Black Israelite community is identical in its contentious relationship to the broader Jewish community as all the splinter groups listed above. — Preceding unsigned comment added by Wikifan925 ( talk • contribs) 17:09, 19 December 2017 (UTC)

Source web page:
In the 2000 election campaign, George W. Bush clearly promised to move the embassy and attacked Clinton for failing to deliver on his promise. At one point he even said he would “start the process as soon as I’m sworn in.” But like Clinton before him, once Bush entered the White House, it didn’t take long for him to walk back his promise.
Your addition:
During the presidential election campaign in 2000, George W. Bush promised to move the embassy and attacked Clinton for not keeping his own promise. He was even quoted saying that he would "start the process as soon as I’m sworn in." But like Clinton, Bush did not change the administration's position on Jerusalem after he had taken office.
Your version presents the same ideas in the same order using almost identical wording. A selection and arrangement of facts is considered creative content and is copyrightable. Content has to be written in your own words and not include any wording from the source material. Stuff should be presented in a different order where possible. Summarize rather than paraphrase. This will typically result in your version being much shorter than the source document. There's some reading material on this topic at Wikipedia:Close paraphrasing and/or have a look at the material at Purdue or study this module aimed at WikiEd students. — Diannaa 🍁 ( talk) 18:49, 24 December 2017 (UTC)
