Welcome![edit]

Hello, Nathan buck1, and welcome to Wikipedia! Thank you for your contributions. I hope you like the place and decide to stay. Unfortunately, one or more of your recent edits to the page Linda Sarsour have not conformed to Wikipedia's verifiability policy, and has been or will be removed. Wikipedia articles should refer only to facts and interpretations that have been stated in print or on reputable websites or in other media. Always remember to provide a reliable source for quotations and for any material that is likely to be challenged, or it may be removed. Wikipedia also has a related policy against including original research in articles. Additionally, all new biographies of living people must contain at least one reliable source.

If you are stuck and looking for help, please see the guide for citing sources or come to the new contributors' help page, where experienced Wikipedians can answer any queries you have! Here are a few other good links for newcomers:

Discretionary sanctions alert[edit]

This message contains important information about an administrative situation on Wikipedia. It does not imply any misconduct regarding your own contributions to date.

Please carefully read this information:

The Arbitration Committee has authorised discretionary sanctions to be used for pages regarding living or recently deceased people, and edits relating to the subject (living or recently deceased) of such biographical articles, 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.

August 2017[edit]

Information icon Hello, and welcome to Wikipedia. You appear to be repeatedly reverting or undoing other editors' contributions at Linda Sarsour. Although this may seem necessary to protect your preferred version of a page, on Wikipedia this is known as "edit warring" and is usually seen as obstructing the normal editing process, as it often creates animosity between editors. Instead of reverting, please discuss the situation with the editor(s) involved and try to reach a consensus on the talk page.

If editors continue to revert to their preferred version they are likely to be blocked from editing Wikipedia. This isn't done to punish an editor, but to prevent the disruption caused by edit warring. In particular, editors should be aware of the three-revert rule, which says that an editor must not perform more than three reverts on a single page within a 24-hour period. Edit warring on Wikipedia is not acceptable in any amount, and violating the three-revert rule is very likely to lead to a block. Thank you. —Sangdeboeuf (talk) 03:38, 7 August 2017 (UTC)[reply]

Living people[edit]

Hi, I see you've already been giving the discretionary sanctions notice above about living people, but its a long template that is difficult to read so I'll explain more. Basically, Wikipedia is depending on how you measure either the 5th or 6th most popular website in the world. That means what we write has the real potential to harm real people. David Duke, regardless of his beliefs, is a real living person. That means he is protected by our policies on living people. The reason I removed the felony conviction from the lead was because as written, it implied him being a felon was connected to all the other unsavoury things about him. That isn't true, so we have an obligation both to him ant the reader to not present it that way. I hope you become more active on Wikipedia: it really is a wonderful place, and you clearly want to help. If you have any questions about living people or Wikipedia in general, my talk page is always open. Have a great rest of the day! TonyBallioni (talk) 01:08, 19 October 2017 (UTC)[reply]

Please self revert on Rachel's Tomb[edit]

You have just broken 1RR on Rachel's Tomb, please self revert, or risk being reported.

Also, please read what is says on the top of Talk:Rachel's Tomb: you do not have 500 edits, and should therefor not be editing this article at all.

Thirdly, when a recognised expert like professor Pringle says that a traveller reported it as a mosque in 1421, then we really don't care what Nadav Shragai says in The Jerusalem Post. Huldra (talk) 22:58, 23 October 2017 (UTC)[reply]
