Do these sources specify that there talking about "atzmus u'mahus" itself? Yonoson3 ( talk) 20:50, 29 December 2009 (UTC)
"The reference made by the LR re. "atzmus umehus" was simply a mention of this unique status accorded to a rebbe/tzaddik/nossi etc." - But does this chiddush of the Lubavitcher Rebbe have any earlier source? —Preceding unsigned comment added by Yonoson3 ( talk • contribs) 04:44, 3 January 2010 (UTC)
Hi,on the Rabbi Elazar Shach page you expanded the "Opposition to the Lubavitcher Rebbe" section considerably. Do you feel that the information should also be added to the Rabbi Menachem Mendel Schneerson page? I find it interesting that the Rebbe's page has no mention at all of any opposition to the Rebbe.
That would be, imho, historically dishonest. What I added was accurate historical context, sourced in many media reports. R'Shachs public/media presence during the 80's & 90's was defined by his frequent attacks on Chabad. This was fodder for the Israeli media, and it got R'Schach some coverage. Contrast this with the media coverage of Chabad in the US during those years, and the opposition in Israel barely made the comments section. It was also largely ignored by the mainstream in the US at the time. Check out the Israeli media reports of Chabad/Schach during those years, and contrast that with the press coverage in the rest of the world - it was largely a non-issue outside Israel. Chabad & the LR were making the news roughly weekly for any number of reasons / campaigns / contro's / events. R'Schach made press only for attacks and criticisms. The record does not lie...
Winchester2313 ( talk) 21:05, 30 December 2009 (UTC)
Your lack of credible sources for these wild allegations speaks for itself. What is indisputable is that Rav Hutner maintained a correspondence with the LR for at-least the 1953-1973 period, and addressed the LR in his letters with tremendous respect. This is a matter of record, no matter how much consternation it might cause in certain circles. What correspondence occurred during R'Hutners final years will become known in the next year or two, as the publication of the LR's letters from those years goes to press. There is some credible evidence of mutual respect between the LR & the SR,and absolutely none to the contrary. This is an encyclopedia, not a soap-box. Winchester2313 ( talk) 04:20, 31 December 2009 (UTC)
An outrageous and factually unsupported accusation has no place in an encyclopedia, unless placed in context, which is what the sources I quoted provide. Insistence on hair-splitting semantics do not do justice to the issue, other than (perhaps) serve as a convenient red herring. Fact is, 'atzmus umehus' is a term used to describe God, largely (almost exclusively) found in texts associated with the school of Chabad philosophy, begining with the Tanya. Claiming it to mean something else because you don't find it in earlier texts, is like claiming that 'google' and 'search' have different meanings, simply because you won't find the term 'google it' in any text more than 20 years old. Thus your contention borders on the absurd, and leads to an obviously invalid conclusion. If you'd like, I have no objection to removing the entire paragraph dealing with that particular accusation of R' Schach, should you wish it to remain, however, context is critical. Winchester2313 ( talk) 00:53, 4 January 2010 (UTC)
You need to include references within the article, not just the edit summary. 98.248.33.198 ( talk) 18:49, 1 January 2010 (UTC)
Winchester, do you even own a Michtavim Umaamarim? Get your sources straight first before putting up stuff. Are you the same guy as the one who calls himself shloime over here ( http://daattorah.blogspot.com/2008/08/chabad-rav-schachdisputing-attack-on.html), or are you just cutting and pasting and making the whole thing into a mumble jumble? Yonoson3 ( talk) 05:39, 4 January 2010 (UTC)
Actually, I usually just borrow it from the kollel next door - its a mix of 2 different sets, one much older than the other. I will re-check as you suggest, and resubmit the information with details of the edition I'm using. My name is certainly not 'Shloime' (or anything remotely similar), and that blog looks like a lot of drivel to me - somebody there needs some sedatives.... I object to deliberate mischaracterizations being presented as 'facts', and that is what I'm trying to correct here. An encyclopedia should be both honest and neutral. An (even) rudimentary search of the media reports of the '80s and '90s puts the lie to much of what is being said here, and I believe in letting people speak for themselves. R'Schach certainly did - which you seem intent on re-casting. Do you speak yiddish -listen carefully to what he says on those tapes, his yiddish is much better than his ivrit.... Oh, and by the way- you do realize that many of the 'sources' for the stuff in this article are unverified (or unverifiable) single-party accounts from partisan 'researchers' like Shlomo Lorencz, don't you? So Deiah-veDibbur doesn't help much. Winchester2313 ( talk) 06:00, 4 January 2010 (UTC)
Winchester, would you be able to email those transcripts to libraryplace@gmail.com I'm interested in seeing them. Yonoson3 ( talk) 05:22, 5 January 2010 (UTC)
Winchester, you mentioned on the Elazar Shach talk page that you have the transcripts of those two speeches (Binyanei Ha'Uma and Yad Eliyahu). Being that the Yad Eliyahu one doesn't even have any subtitles on it, I am very interested in seeing the exact wording. Would you be able to email them to libraryplace@gmail.com ? —Preceding unsigned comment added by Yonoson3 ( talk • contribs) 03:11, 8 March 2010 (UTC)
I must respectfully decline, having seen your performance on these pages. What you surely meant to say is "Having a blatantly revisionist agenda, which has been exposed on these pages and is now obvious to all....I'm worried about which other facts may now come to light". Providing more fodder to a shameless revisionist isn't very high on my 'to do' list at present. I will post more verifiable information here in coming days and weeks, for all to share. Winchester2313 ( talk) 09:12, 9 March 2010 (UTC)
Still waiting for those transcripts... There's nothing for me to hide; I can't change what he said... Yonoson3 ( talk) 05:17, 19 December 2010 (UTC)
I noticed you are edit warring on Elazar Shach. please stop this now, and use the talk page to reach consensus. Remember that this page was protected previously, and nobody wants that to happen again. Failure to resolve your issues on the talk page and continued edit warring will likely result in a personal block against you. Debresser ( talk) 16:16, 17 March 2010 (UTC)
How long is reasonable enough time for no response on the talk page? Winchester2313 ( talk) 17:33, 17 March 2010 (UTC)
You currently appear to be engaged in an
edit war according to the reverts you have made on
Menachem Mendel Schneerson. Note that the
three-revert rule prohibits making more than three reversions on a single page within a 24-hour period. Additionally, users who perform several reversions in content disputes may be blocked for edit warring even if they do not technically violate the
three-revert rule. When in dispute with another editor you should first try to
discuss controversial changes to work towards wording and content that gains a
consensus among editors. Should that prove unsuccessful, you are encouraged to seek
dispute resolution, and in some cases it may be appropriate to request
page protection. Please stop the disruption, otherwise you may be
blocked from editing. --

Just so I understand this correctly... Were some professor at a Chinese university to publish in 2025 a book about the Obama presidency, and he claimed to have been told by David Axelrod that Mr. Obama regularly had difficulty waking up before 10am - notwithstanding the fact that this would be a 'highly exceptional' claim, or the fact that none of the many other books about Obama mention this, or the vast documentary evidence showing Obama at meetings and conferences at much earlier hours, this would now be 'verified' by Wiki standards, and could not be removed unless a published source disputed this outlandish claim?!! Is that what you're saying, because http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Wikipedia:Verifiability#Exceptional_claims_require_exceptional_sources, http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Wikipedia:Verifiability#Questionable_sources and http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Wikipedia:Verifiability#Self-published_and_questionable_sources_as_sources_on_themselves sure seem to be saying something else. Winchester2313 ( talk) 20:35, 19 April 2010 (UTC)
Good point. I would guess that an unusual claim would need much better verification than just one man printing in his own book what he claimed he was told?! —Preceding unsigned comment added by 66.202.61.162 ( talk) 13:17, 20 April 2010 (UTC)

Ok. I see what you mean, and hadn't noticed the last few paragraphs you obviously refer to, as they were so far down the page. I only meant to restore the significant references which you deleted.

Whether I am or am not a "follower of Menachem Mendel Schneerson" is irrelevant, as reasonable people expect positions and contributions to be judged exclusively on their merits. I therefore take pains to source my edits.

Hi Winchester2313: Since you have been active for well over a year, it would be nice if, like most normal active users on Wikipedia, you filled in your still-blank "User page" with some information about your interests to make inter-acting with you a little more pleasant and to make sure that you have no connection to a number of other "Winchesters+numerals" that are blocked on Wikipedia -- because there is also a problem that the main part of your "Winchester" user name belongs to banned names such as the blocked puppets User:Winchester53, User:Winchester54, User:Winchester55, User:Winchester Admiral, User:Winchesterfive. So as you can see, some clear-cut clarification from you that you are not connected to these or any banned sock puppets and vandals would go along way to adding to your credibility on Wikipedia. Thanks again, IZAK ( talk) 09:21, 25 October 2010 (UTC)
FYI- I am not, have not, and will not be involved in any sock-puppetry or the like, and take umbrage at your repeated insinuations (on other pages) and accusations to that effect. Please stop it now. Winchester2313 ( talk) 05:32, 27 October 2010 (UTC)
Hi there Winschester: There was no need for you to sound "alarm bells" at the Shulchan Aruch talk page. I read through the article very carefully, I spent a couple of hours looking it over, and I made some helpful improvements to it. When writing I cannot add a reference to every word and line, but I know that what I added was verifiable and true and anyone is free to improve the article -- that aspect's always true on any Wikipedia articles, but first articles must be written. Some of the material you deleted I took directly from other articles on Wikipedia, so it's odd you object to them. Your accusations are baseless and violate WP:AGF as well as WP:CIVIL and WP:NPA with your dismissive tones against me (but I have come to get used to that from you albeit it is not right). In any case, if you had any problems with my edits, the way to go about it is to contact me on my talk page and/or start a discussion on the article's talk page or at WP:TALKJUDAISM (why are you so allergic to seeking WP:CONSENSUS?) and note the points you are disputing and then let a good faith discussion take place. I have now done so, at Talk:Shulchan Aruch#Recent edits, but I still cannot fathom why you placed a comment there out of order that I had to go searching for it in earlier comments. I do commend you on the high quality of your very constructive edits though. Thank you, IZAK ( talk) 09:32, 25 October 2010 (UTC)
The information I removed was that which I found to clearly fail WP:VERIFY and WP:SOURCE. The other corrections made were largely grammatical in nature, and stand on their respective merits (or lack thereof).... I also removed information related to the Maimonides page that had no direct relevance to the Shulchan Aruch. Regarding the discussion or lack thereof, I note that you didn't see fit to discuss your edits in advance, regardless of the likelihood that WP:UNSOURCED material will be subject to WP:CHALLENGE. Winchester2313 ( talk) 05:42, 27 October 2010 (UTC)
Not quite... In fact, I take the WP:VERIFY rule very seriously, as it protects the integrity of the entire project, and am sorry if you don't. The rules are quite clear, namely, if you can't provide a reliable source then it probably shouldn't be in Wikipedia. Please STOP with your personal attacks, I'm not the one plastering pages with speculative or blatantly false material. Winchester2313 ( talk) 16:54, 27 October 2010 (UTC)
Please discuss points and information you may dispute, and your reasoning, but do not remove material by blanket reverts that are counter-productive. If you wish to request more sources etc please do so by contacting other editors or by placing a note at WP:TALKJUDAISM for example. Please adhere to: (1) Wikipedia:Civility; (2) Wikipedia:Etiquette; (3) Wikipedia:No personal attacks; (4) Wikipedia:Assume good faith; (5) Wikipedia:Edit warring. Amazing how you consider yourself an "expert" on Litvisher roshei yeshiva, like Rav Shach and Rav Hutner, and it's just because their strong opposition to Chabad at various times is on the record. You obviously just want to wage wars to protect Chabad in the most blatant POV way, and to "shield" yourself you merrily blindly invoke all sorts of WP "policies" in the hope that no one will no notice what you are doing. Well, your game is up. Stop the monkey business ASAP. Be that as it may, I wanted to let you know that I got your latest message on my talk page and I have started a section at the Rav Hutner article's talk page where points can be discussed at length and CIVILLY (i.e. in a derech eretzdikker way) now that I am expanding the article even more, see Talk:Yitzchok Hutner#Expanding the article discussions. Thank you, IZAK ( talk) 11:19, 27 October 2010 (UTC)
Look here Winchester, I am trying to be reasonable with you. I have asked you to join me at Talk:Yitzchok Hutner#Expanding the article discussions for rational and sane discussions. Per your request I have added at least 10+ excellent references. I am adding more all the time. Feel free to be rational, but wild and blanket reverts like you are doing is vandalism and I will not warn you again. Thanks. IZAK ( talk) 14:55, 27 October 2010 (UTC)
I do not appreciate your repeated threats and intimidation, specifically when you constantly level accusations of some spurious Chabad-POV in articles having nothing to do with Chabad.

I simply removed information lacking credible sourcing as per WP:RS AND WP:OR. Self-published polemics lacking credible editorial oversight clearly fail the standards for inclusion.

You currently appear to be engaged in an
edit war according to the reverts you have made on
Jeremy Corbyn; that means that you are repeatedly changing content back to how you think it should be, when you have seen that 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.

Hi. Thank you for your recent edits. An automated process has detected that when you recently edited Moshe Feinstein, you added a link pointing to the disambiguation page New York. Such links are usually incorrect, since a disambiguation page is merely a list of unrelated topics with similar titles. (Read the FAQ • Join us at the DPL WikiProject.)

Do these sources specify that there talking about "atzmus u'mahus" itself? Yonoson3 ( talk) 20:50, 29 December 2009 (UTC)
"The reference made by the LR re. "atzmus umehus" was simply a mention of this unique status accorded to a rebbe/tzaddik/nossi etc." - But does this chiddush of the Lubavitcher Rebbe have any earlier source? —Preceding unsigned comment added by Yonoson3 ( talk • contribs) 04:44, 3 January 2010 (UTC)
Hi,on the Rabbi Elazar Shach page you expanded the "Opposition to the Lubavitcher Rebbe" section considerably. Do you feel that the information should also be added to the Rabbi Menachem Mendel Schneerson page? I find it interesting that the Rebbe's page has no mention at all of any opposition to the Rebbe.
That would be, imho, historically dishonest. What I added was accurate historical context, sourced in many media reports. R'Shachs public/media presence during the 80's & 90's was defined by his frequent attacks on Chabad. This was fodder for the Israeli media, and it got R'Schach some coverage. Contrast this with the media coverage of Chabad in the US during those years, and the opposition in Israel barely made the comments section. It was also largely ignored by the mainstream in the US at the time. Check out the Israeli media reports of Chabad/Schach during those years, and contrast that with the press coverage in the rest of the world - it was largely a non-issue outside Israel. Chabad & the LR were making the news roughly weekly for any number of reasons / campaigns / contro's / events. R'Schach made press only for attacks and criticisms. The record does not lie...
Winchester2313 ( talk) 21:05, 30 December 2009 (UTC)
Your lack of credible sources for these wild allegations speaks for itself. What is indisputable is that Rav Hutner maintained a correspondence with the LR for at-least the 1953-1973 period, and addressed the LR in his letters with tremendous respect. This is a matter of record, no matter how much consternation it might cause in certain circles. What correspondence occurred during R'Hutners final years will become known in the next year or two, as the publication of the LR's letters from those years goes to press. There is some credible evidence of mutual respect between the LR & the SR,and absolutely none to the contrary. This is an encyclopedia, not a soap-box. Winchester2313 ( talk) 04:20, 31 December 2009 (UTC)
An outrageous and factually unsupported accusation has no place in an encyclopedia, unless placed in context, which is what the sources I quoted provide. Insistence on hair-splitting semantics do not do justice to the issue, other than (perhaps) serve as a convenient red herring. Fact is, 'atzmus umehus' is a term used to describe God, largely (almost exclusively) found in texts associated with the school of Chabad philosophy, begining with the Tanya. Claiming it to mean something else because you don't find it in earlier texts, is like claiming that 'google' and 'search' have different meanings, simply because you won't find the term 'google it' in any text more than 20 years old. Thus your contention borders on the absurd, and leads to an obviously invalid conclusion. If you'd like, I have no objection to removing the entire paragraph dealing with that particular accusation of R' Schach, should you wish it to remain, however, context is critical.

Winchester, do you even own a Michtavim Umaamarim? Get your sources straight first before putting up stuff. Are you the same guy as the one who calls himself shloime over here ( http://daattorah.blogspot.com/2008/08/chabad-rav-schachdisputing-attack-on.html), or are you just cutting and pasting and making the whole thing into a mumble jumble? Yonoson3 ( talk) 05:39, 4 January 2010 (UTC)
Actually, I usually just borrow it from the kollel next door - its a mix of 2 different sets, one much older than the other. I will re-check as you suggest, and resubmit the information with details of the edition I'm using. My name is certainly not 'Shloime' (or anything remotely similar), and that blog looks like a lot of drivel to me - somebody there needs some sedatives.... I object to deliberate mischaracterizations being presented as 'facts', and that is what I'm trying to correct here. An encyclopedia should be both honest and neutral. An (even) rudimentary search of the media reports of the '80s and '90s puts the lie to much of what is being said here, and I believe in letting people speak for themselves. R'Schach certainly did - which you seem intent on re-casting. Do you speak yiddish -listen carefully to what he says on those tapes, his yiddish is much better than his ivrit.... Oh, and by the way- you do realize that many of the 'sources' for the stuff in this article are unverified (or unverifiable) single-party accounts from partisan 'researchers' like Shlomo Lorencz, don't you? So Deiah-veDibbur doesn't help much. Winchester2313 ( talk) 06:00, 4 January 2010 (UTC)
Winchester, would you be able to email those transcripts to libraryplace@gmail.com I'm interested in seeing them. Yonoson3 ( talk) 05:22, 5 January 2010 (UTC)
Winchester, you mentioned on the Elazar Shach talk page that you have the transcripts of those two speeches (Binyanei Ha'Uma and Yad Eliyahu). Being that the Yad Eliyahu one doesn't even have any subtitles on it, I am very interested in seeing the exact wording. Would you be able to email them to libraryplace@gmail.com ? —Preceding unsigned comment added by Yonoson3 ( talk • contribs) 03:11, 8 March 2010 (UTC)
I must respectfully decline, having seen your performance on these pages. What you surely meant to say is "Having a blatantly revisionist agenda, which has been exposed on these pages and is now obvious to all....I'm worried about which other facts may now come to light". Providing more fodder to a shameless revisionist isn't very high on my 'to do' list at present. I will post more verifiable information here in coming days and weeks, for all to share.

I noticed you are edit warring on Elazar Shach. please stop this now, and use the talk page to reach consensus.

How long is reasonable enough time for no response on the talk page? Winchester2313 ( talk) 17:33, 17 March 2010 (UTC)
You currently appear to be engaged in an
edit war according to the reverts you have made on
Menachem Mendel Schneerson. Note that the
three-revert rule prohibits making more than three reversions on a single page within a 24-hour period. Additionally, users who perform several reversions in content disputes may be blocked for edit warring even if they do not technically violate the
three-revert rule. When in dispute with another editor you should first try to
discuss controversial changes to work towards wording and content that gains a
consensus among editors. Should that prove unsuccessful, you are encouraged to seek
dispute resolution, and in some cases it may be appropriate to request
page protection. Please stop the disruption, otherwise you may be
blocked from editing. --

Just so I understand this correctly... Were some professor at a Chinese university to publish in 2025 a book about the Obama presidency, and he claimed to have been told by David Axelrod that Mr. Obama regularly had difficulty waking up before 10am - notwithstanding the fact that this would be a 'highly exceptional' claim, or the fact that none of the many other books about Obama mention this, or the vast documentary evidence showing Obama at meetings and conferences at much earlier hours, this would now be 'verified' by Wiki standards, and could not be removed unless a published source disputed this outlandish claim?!! Is that what you're saying, because http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Wikipedia:Verifiability#Exceptional_claims_require_exceptional_sources, http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Wikipedia:Verifiability#Questionable_sources and http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Wikipedia:Verifiability#Self-published_and_questionable_sources_as_sources_on_themselves sure seem to be saying something else. Winchester2313 ( talk) 20:35, 19 April 2010 (UTC)

Hi Winchester2313: Since you have been active for well over a year, it would be nice if, like most normal active users on Wikipedia, you filled in your still-blank "User page" with some information about your interests to make inter-acting with you a little more pleasant and to make sure that you have no connection to a number of other "Winchesters+numerals" that are blocked on Wikipedia -- because there is also a problem that the main part of your "Winchester" user name belongs to banned names such as the blocked puppets User:Winchester53, User:Winchester54, User:Winchester55, User:Winchester Admiral, User:Winchesterfive. So as you can see, some clear-cut clarification from you that you are not connected to these or any banned sock puppets and vandals would go along way to adding to your credibility on Wikipedia. Thanks again, IZAK ( talk) 09:21, 25 October 2010 (UTC)
FYI- I am not, have not, and will not be involved in any sock-puppetry or the like, and take umbrage at your repeated insinuations (on other pages) and accusations to that effect. Please stop it now. Winchester2313 ( talk) 05:32, 27 October 2010 (UTC)
Hi there Winschester: There was no need for you to sound "alarm bells" at the Shulchan Aruch talk page. I read through the article very carefully, I spent a couple of hours looking it over, and I made some helpful improvements to it. When writing I cannot add a reference to every word and line, but I know that what I added was verifiable and true and anyone is free to improve the article -- that aspect's always true on any Wikipedia articles, but first articles must be written. Some of the material you deleted I took directly from other articles on Wikipedia, so it's odd you object to them. Your accusations are baseless and violate WP:AGF as well as WP:CIVIL and WP:NPA with your dismissive tones against me (but I have come to get used to that from you albeit it is not right). In any case, if you had any problems with my edits, the way to go about it is to contact me on my talk page and/or start a discussion on the article's talk page or at WP:TALKJUDAISM (why are you so allergic to seeking WP:CONSENSUS?) and note the points you are disputing and then let a good faith discussion take place. I have now done so, at Talk:Shulchan Aruch#Recent edits, but I still cannot fathom why you placed a comment there out of order that I had to go searching for it in earlier comments. I do commend you on the high quality of your very constructive edits though. Thank you, IZAK ( talk) 09:32, 25 October 2010 (UTC)
The information I removed was that which I found to clearly fail WP:VERIFY and WP:SOURCE. The other corrections made were largely grammatical in nature, and stand on their respective merits (or lack thereof).... I also removed information related to the Maimonides page that had no direct relevance to the Shulchan Aruch. Regarding the discussion or lack thereof, I note that you didn't see fit to discuss your edits in advance, regardless of the likelihood that WP:UNSOURCED material will be subject to WP:CHALLENGE. Winchester2313 ( talk) 05:42, 27 October 2010 (UTC)
Not quite... In fact, I take the WP:VERIFY rule very seriously, as it protects the integrity of the entire project, and am sorry if you don't. The rules are quite clear, namely, if you can't provide a reliable source then it probably shouldn't be in Wikipedia. Please STOP with your personal attacks, I'm not the one plastering pages with speculative or blatantly false material. Winchester2313 ( talk) 16:54, 27 October 2010 (UTC)
Please discuss points and information you may dispute, and your reasoning, but do not remove material by blanket reverts that are counter-productive. If you wish to request more sources etc please do so by contacting other editors or by placing a note at WP:TALKJUDAISM for example. Please adhere to: (1) Wikipedia:Civility; (2) Wikipedia:Etiquette; (3) Wikipedia:No personal attacks; (4) Wikipedia:Assume good faith; (5) Wikipedia:Edit warring. Amazing how you consider yourself an "expert" on Litvisher roshei yeshiva, like Rav Shach and Rav Hutner, and it's just because their strong opposition to Chabad at various times is on the record. You obviously just want to wage wars to protect Chabad in the most blatant POV way, and to "shield" yourself you merrily blindly invoke all sorts of WP "policies" in the hope that no one will no notice what you are doing. Well, your game is up. Stop the monkey business ASAP. Be that as it may, I wanted to let you know that I got your latest message on my talk page and I have started a section at the Rav Hutner article's talk page where points can be discussed at length and CIVILLY (i.e. in a derech eretzdikker way) now that I am expanding the article even more, see Talk:Yitzchok Hutner#Expanding the article discussions. Thank you, IZAK ( talk) 11:19, 27 October 2010 (UTC)
Look here Winchester, I am trying to be reasonable with you. I have asked you to join me at Talk:Yitzchok Hutner#Expanding the article discussions for rational and sane discussions. Per your request I have added at least 10+ excellent references. I am adding more all the time. Feel free to be rational, but wild and blanket reverts like you are doing is vandalism and I will not warn you again. Thanks. IZAK ( talk) 14:55, 27 October 2010 (UTC)
I do not appreciate your repeated threats and intimidation, specifically when you constantly level accusations of some spurious Chabad-POV in articles having nothing to do with Chabad.

This includes the authority to impose site bans, topic bans, editing restrictions, and other measures needed to maintain our editing environment. The arbitration policy describes the Committee's roles and responsibilities in greater detail.

You currently appear to be engaged in an
edit war according to the reverts you have made on
Jeremy Corbyn; that means that you are repeatedly changing content back to how you think it should be, when you have seen that 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. SharʿabSalam▼ ( talk) 01:04, 11 May 2020 (UTC)
Hi. Thank you for your recent edits. An automated process has detected that when you recently edited Moshe Feinstein, you added a link pointing to the disambiguation page New York. Such links are usually incorrect, since a disambiguation page is merely a list of unrelated topics with similar titles. (Read the FAQ • Join us at the DPL WikiProject.)
