Israel Palestine articles[edit]

This is a standard message to notify contributors about an administrative ruling in effect. It does not imply that there are any issues with your contributions to date.

You have shown interest in the Arab–Israeli conflict. Due to past disruption in this topic area, a more stringent set of rules called discretionary sanctions is in effect. Any administrator may impose sanctions on editors who do not strictly follow Wikipedia's policies, or the page-specific restrictions, when making edits related to the topic.

For additional information, please see the guidance on discretionary sanctions and the Arbitration Committee's decision here. If you have any questions, or any doubts regarding what edits are appropriate, you are welcome to discuss them with me or any other editor.

Try to remember to sign your posts, the talk gets confusing else. Thanks.Selfstudier (talk) 15:05, 22 July 2021 (UTC)[reply]

Thank you. I apologise for my previous attempts to add information on the mere ground of more narratives are always better. I will be more constructive about this. Geoffrey Zhehao Li (talk) 01:31, 24 July 2021 (UTC)[reply]

I see that you got the alert about Palestine-Israel articles above, so why are you editing articles like Salman Abu Sitta? Please don't edit articles in the I-P area again, until you have (at least) 500 edits, or you might be reported on WP:AE. There are lots of other areas on wikipedia! Cheers, Huldra (talk) 21:45, 24 July 2021 (UTC)[reply]

The original article is not locked for some reasons, and I, having noticed that it's flagged that the article does not meet Wikipedia standards, edits out the unnecessary parts to make it closer to other articles about people who personally experienced the 1948 War. and thus in concordance with Wikipedia style. I wonder whether this would be appropriate or not. For my proposal to add a paragraph about typical Israeli responses to Nakba on the article, it was a mistake. Now I simply wanted to change "As a result, the narrative is extremely sensitive to the Israeli identity.[50]" in Nakba#Israeli_narrative to "As a result, the narrative is extremely sensitive to the Israeli identity, having been associated with the legitimacy of the State of Israel itself.[50]" as the original source behind the section indicated. 05:08, 25 July 2021 (UTC)Geoffrey Zhehao Li (talk)
