Welcome![edit]

Welcome to Wikipedia, Yotna! I have been editing Wikipedia for quite some time. I just wanted to say hi and welcome you to Wikipedia! If you have any questions, feel free to leave me a message on my talk page or by typing {{helpme}} at the bottom of this page. I love to help new users, so don't be afraid to leave a message! I hope you like the place and decide to stay. Here are some pages that you might find helpful:

I hope you enjoy editing here and being a Wikipedian! Oh yeah, I almost forgot, when you post on talk pages you should sign your name on talk pages using four tildes (~~~~); that should automatically produce your username and the date after your post. If you need help, check out Wikipedia:Questions, ask me on my talk page, or place {{helpme}} on your talk page and ask your question there. Again, welcome!

2010 terrorist incidents[edit]

I removed the entry for the recent murder suicide in the US, as the ref on the list of incidents and the article on the topic itself make no suggestion of a terrorist attack. Alastairward (talk) 20:24, 20 February 2010 (UTC)[reply]

Please do not remove incidents that clearly fit the selection criteria without discussion, as you did with the attack on the Greek parliament in January. I have reverted this change. If you wish to dispute this, feel free to discuss on the talk page. Ray^Talk 14:28, 4 April 2010 (UTC)[reply]

FARC[edit]

[1] You removed the FARC edit, i don't know why. but the group is proscribed in many places and would qualify as "terror".Lihaas (talk) 11:22, 2 May 2010 (UTC)).[reply]

Community restrictions[edit]

The article List of terrorist incidents, 2010, along with other articles relating to The Troubles, is currently subject to active arbitration remedies, as laid out during a previous Arbitration Enforcement case that closed in October 2007, and was amended by community consensus in October 2008. The current restrictions are:

All editors on Troubles-related articles are directed to get the advice of neutral parties via means such as outside opinions.
All articles related to The Troubles, defined as: any article that could be reasonably construed as being related to The Troubles, Irish nationalism, and British nationalism in relation to Ireland falls under WP:1RR (one revert per editor per article per day). When in doubt, assume it is related.
- Clear vandalism, or edits by anonymous IP editors, may be reverted without penalty
Editors who violate this 1RR restriction may be blocked without warning by any uninvolved administrator, even on a first offense.

If you are a new editor, or an editor unfamiliar with the situation, please follow the guidelines laid out in the above link. If you are unsure if your edit is appropriate, discuss it on this talk page first.

Obviously this only applies to edits that revert Troubles related incidents. O Fenian (talk) 23:50, 12 July 2010 (UTC)[reply]

List of designated terrorist organizations[edit]

Hello Yotna! I am really sorry, it was my mistake undoing your 4 last edits. I did not read carefully and thought you were adding new "check" marks, which needs serious references. But in fact it was just images, which does not need references. So I should not have reverted, sorry! OFenian has reverted again, for a copyright reason I don't really understand, but that's a different matter. The article would be better with these flags! I there really are no reusable flags available, we could draw them. Cheers! Nicolas1981 (talk) 00:00, 7 October 2010 (UTC)[reply]

October 2010[edit]

Welcome to Wikipedia. Although everyone is welcome to contribute to Wikipedia, at least one of your recent edits, such as the one you made to List of ongoing wars, did not appear to be constructive and has been reverted or removed. Please use the sandbox for any test edits you would like to make, and read the welcome page to learn more about contributing constructively to this encyclopedia. Thank you.

Thank you for your contributions to Wikipedia. Before saving your changes to an article, please provide an edit summary for your edits. Doing so helps everyone to understand the intention of your edit (and prevents legitimate edits from being mistaken for vandalism). It is also helpful to users reading the edit history of the page. Thank you. Oore (talk) 15:34, 11 October 2010 (UTC)[reply]

Welcome to Wikipedia. It might not have been your intention, but your recent edit removed content from Papua conflict. When removing content, please specify a reason in the edit summary and discuss edits that are likely to be controversial on the article's talk page. If this was a mistake, don't worry; the content has been restored, as you can see from the page history. Take a look at the welcome page to learn more about contributing to this encyclopedia, and if you would like to experiment, please use the sandbox. Thank you.

Rebel groups[edit]

Hi there. What's the exact principle to remove Resistência Galega as a rebel group? I don't know if you understand Spanish but I could give you sources of how the organisation has an structure, which are their goals, how they work and etc. They're just a "small ETA". I would compare them to the anarchists groups in Greece. Take care Pencil (talk) 23:54, 31 January 2011 (UTC)[reply]

Libyan civil war casualties[edit]

Please refrain from removal of sourced information. The two government fatalities in Yafran are part of the Nafusa mountains battles toll so they were included there, no need to put them separately in the table. The upper estimate in the Nafusa toll was added without any sources to back it up by an anonymous user so it was removed. Also, the claims of civilian deaths by the Libyan government in NATO attacks also have to be included just like we include rebel claims of civilian killed by the government, othervise if you remove them that could constitute a violation of Wikipedia's rule on neutrality and be seen as POV-pushing.

Battle of Doan[edit]

Hi Yotna, I am new. I think this is a talk page or else I feel like an idiot. Anyway, just wanted to thank you for your help with the article "Battle of Doan". It took me ages to write it up and to figure out how to do it all properly (trial and error). It was very hard to find the information since all of it was just news coverage. Thanks — Preceding unsigned comment added by Collingwood26 (talk • contribs) 03:35, 28 November 2011 (UTC)[reply]

Aha, it's normal, If you need help do not hesitate to ask me. ! :) --Yotna (talk) 17:18, 28 November 2011 (UTC)[reply]

ArbCom elections are now open![edit]

Hi,
You appear to be eligible to vote in the current Arbitration Committee election. The Arbitration Committee is the panel of editors responsible for conducting the Wikipedia arbitration process. It has the authority to enact binding solutions for disputes between editors, primarily related to serious behavioural issues that the community has been unable to resolve. This includes the ability 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. If you wish to participate, you are welcome to review the candidates' statements and submit your choices on the voting page.
