Jewish Views on Slavery

Hi, I was reviewing your most recent addition to the Jewish views on slavery page. I noticed that you added that the Biblical concept was to treat slaves as chattel. No argument that that is what that source says, but I don't think that that represents the consensus opinion of historians. Curious if you were up to having a quick discussion about it? — Preceding unsigned comment added by Squatch347 (talk • contribs) 14:58, 22 February 2018 (UTC)[reply]

I am up for it. What would you like to discuss? JosephusOfJerusalem (talk) 02:09, 23 February 2018 (UTC)[reply]

-Hi, it is fine to have a disagreement and a discussion about that disagreement but when umpteen people with vast experience are telling you that you are wrong, it is usually not a good idea to keep banging the drum with exactly the same arguments, over and over. That might be considered [[WP:TE|tendentious behaviour]]. I think you may soon need to re-assess what you are doing at the [[WP:NORN]] thread and elsewhere in relation to the election figures. - [[User:Sitush|Sitush]] ([[User talk:Sitush|talk]]) 12:10, 22 February 2018 (UTC)

-Hi, JosephusOfJerusalem. Please note that Wikipedia is a collaborative project. Your editing is very aggressive, and I'm especially offended by the bad-faith-assuming edit summaries with which you remove messages from this talkpage, such as [https://en.wikipedia.org/w/index.php?title=User_talk:JosephusOfJerusalem&diff=820004635&oldid=820001497 here], [https://en.wikipedia.org/w/index.php?title=User_talk:JosephusOfJerusalem&diff=822943398&oldid=822933554 here], and [https://en.wikipedia.org/w/index.php?title=User_talk:JosephusOfJerusalem&diff=826625183&oldid=826620767 here]. That's especially striking since you're highly offended when you believe somebody else doesn't assume good faith, even to the point of taking them to [[WP:AE]] for it.[https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Wikipedia:Arbitration/Requests/Enforcement/Archive224#Anmolbhat] Please speak to others as you would like to be spoken to. As you know, admins have wide discretionary powers to place any sanctions that are necessary for keeping editing and discussions in the India-Pakistan area constructive and civil.
-Your proficient use of Wikipedia jargon and noticeboards makes me very dubious that you were a new user when you registered in October 2017. The comment that used to be on your userpage, that you 'have been examining the Wikipedia policies and procedures', doesn't convince me. Is there anything you'd like to share about any previous account/s? Abandoning an old account and starting a new one is acceptable, and you don't have to tell me about it, provided you avoid "becoming involved in disputes, edit warring or other forms of disruptive editing" in the same areas as before, per [[WP:CLEANSTART]], and of course provided any old account is not blocked.
