No one can miss the ARBPIA 1r sanction. It's on the article talk page. Nishidani (talk) 18:11, 15 March 2015 (UTC)[reply]

Disambiguation link notification for July 23

Hi. Thank you for your recent edits. Wikipedia appreciates your help. We noticed though that when you edited Theodor Herzl, you added a link pointing to the disambiguation page Hibbat Zion (check to confirm | fix with Dab solver). Such links are almost always unintended, since a disambiguation page is merely a list of "Did you mean..." article titles. Read the FAQ • Join us at the DPL WikiProject.

Hi Yuvn86, I noticed that you recently made 6 reverts to Middle Eastern American. If you feel that something is so important that you must repeatedly remove sourced material and revert it, could you post on the Talk page instead? Musashiaharon (talk) 07:05, 8 November 2015 (UTC)[reply]

@User:Musashiaharon. I described more than once my reasons for reverting. It was ignored. You added unrelated and unsourced information, I reverted it (explained why each time), and a sockpuppet using many different IPs kept reverting me back. You cannot add the total number of American Jews to that article when only a minority of them are registered as such (those who immigrated from West Asia and the Middle East). You and user Jeffgr9 (hopefully he's not your sockpuppet) added unsourced and wrong information that has nothing to with the article's subject and nothing to do with the American census.

Rest assured, I have no sockpuppets. I merely wanted to suggest helping to form a consensus on the talk page and avoiding an edit war. This option is still open, as it always is, should you wish to pursue it. A full discussion is not always possible in edit comments.
If I am understanding your reference correctly, the information was sourced, but did not belong in the census table, so I moved it outside. See the talk page there for more details. Musashiaharon (talk) 10:25, 12 November 2015 (UTC)[reply]
@User:Musashiaharon, American Jews don't belong in the article at all. It's a religious category in the U.S, not ancestry, and even when it's used for ancestry, it's not necessarily about being Middle Eastern, and most of them are not considered to be such. A Syrian Jew is considered Middle Eastern, a Polish Jew is not. Maybe a few lines can be added about Mizrahi communities, but everything else is POV that has nothing to do with the census. Yuvn86 (talk) 11:34, 13 November 2015 (UTC)[reply]
Certainly, you are entitled your point of view. I would be happy to answer your objection, except that this discussion has already taken place exhaustively on many other article talk pages, and I'd be adding nothing by rehashing it here. Of course, if you have any groundbreaking information likely to alter the consensus that Jews are Middle Eastern, please comment on the relevant talk page conversations, so that other editors can discuss it as well. I myself would be very interested, as I haven't seen anything new in this area for a long time. Musashiaharon (talk) 23:27, 13 November 2015 (UTC)[reply]
I checked the sources, and you and Jeffgr9 are simply adding wrong information - "Jewish" is not an ancestry category in the American census, let alone a Middle East one. In every country there are different definitions of ancestry, religion etc,. but this article is about Middle Eastern Americans and the American Census Bureau. You've added NOR and POV material that don't belong in the article, and need to be reverted. Yuvn86 (talk) 12:29, 15 November 2015 (UTC)[reply]
The Census does not presume to make a comprehensive list of ethnicities. By the way, have you ever been called up to the Torah? Musashiaharon (talk) 07:02, 16 November 2015 (UTC)[reply]
I don't get your point. You added obvious POV and OR material to the article, and as you probably know, that's not allowed in Wikipedia. Yuvn86 (talk) 17:05, 18 November 2015 (UTC)[reply]
