Hello Padres. I would consider granting your request but I notice that you haven't enabled email. It is helpful for people to be able to contact you if you are going to be making large numbers of edits with AWB, so I urge you to consider that. Thanks, EdJohnston (talk) 01:18, 24 August 2013 (UTC)
Done. Do you also recommend committed identity? Thanks. Padres Hana (talk) 11:23, 25 August 2013 (UTC)
That's not a requirement, but it helps protect you from losing access to your account. I've approved you to use AWB. Thanks, EdJohnston (talk) 15:59, 25 August 2013 (UTC)

Hello, Padres Hana. I wanted to let you know that I’m proposing an article that you started, John Bulloch (journalist), for deletion because it's a biography of a living person that lacks references. If you don't want John Bulloch (journalist) to be deleted, please add a reference to the article.

Hi, that's a great PD photo of the soldiers standing around the army base. I think the first one you uploaded is better than the aerial shot of the clock tower, where it's hard to see the soldiers. Yoninah (talk) 21:35, 21 January 2017 (UTC)

Nomination for deletion of Template:Israel Municipality (Golan))
Hi Huldra. Yes all the Kasla photos are wrong. Well spotted. The main picture does claim to be Kasla but the caption for the version used for Ras Abu 'Ammar mentions Beit Jala which I thinks makes it the more authentic. The first picture in the gallery is unidentifiable. The remaining four are captioned Beit Mahsir. I don't know why I got it all so wrong. Thanks again. Padres Hana (talk) 15:49, 21 October 2017 (UTC)
Yeah well, we all make mistakes! Thanks for fixing it. Could you please take a look at the remaining pictures in the commons cat for Kasla, Jerusalem, and check that they are correct? Huldra (talk) 20:53, 21 October 2017 (UTC)
PS the Hebrew version of Ksalon also uses the Ras Abu 'Ammar picture, I don't know how to fix that...Huldra (talk) 20:56, 21 October 2017 (UTC)
Heh, I just made my very first edit to Hebrew WP, and removed the wrong picture from the Ksalon article...Huldra (talk) 23:42, 21 October 2017 (UTC)
Please do not apply bogus blue links to the names of individual persons, that link to articles other than a biography of the person, as you did at Scottish Six Days Trial; this is most annoying (and misleading for the casual reader) and counter-productive to have the 'wrong' link purposely arranged.
I am grateful however to have my attention drawn to Graham Jarvis - I have images of him from a 1965 feature on his family's involvement in grasstrack racing, and in a 1987 book where his image is wrongly-related, illustrating delinquency in the Rocker (subculture).

Lost message
Did you @Zero0000: just send a message offering to show me a better way of reproducing the 1930 1:20,000 maps of Palestine? I was very excited to see the quality of the image you sent (mine are not much good) - but I clicked in haste and no longer have your message. Was it just my fevered imagination?

Heh, if anyone knew how many mistakes I have done mixing up the three Al-Qubayba villages: I fear I would have been banned on the spot! They are really tricky, it took me years (no exaggeration!) to get them sorted out...so welcome to the club: "Us, who have mixed up the Al-Qubayba-villages" ;-)

Disambiguation link notification for September 3
An automated process has detected that when you recently edited Hashomer, you added a link pointing to the disambiguation page Merhavia.
Hi, I wonder if you have seem a photo of the Palestine customs flag in your photo searches. There is an image at Flag of Mandatory Palestine, but I believe it is based on someone's guesswork. Here is the description from the Palestine Gazette, 1 Oct 1930, p789:
"The flag to be flown on Customs-House and Vessels in the service of the Customs shall be the Blue Ensign defaced by the word 'Palestine' within a white circular field. Vessels in the service of the Customs shall fly, in addition to the defaced Blue Ensign at the stern, a jack at the bow consisting of a square blue flag with a Union in the upper canton next to the staff, defaced in the fly by the word 'Customs'."
Notice how a "circular white field" is specified for the first flag, but not for the second. I can't prove it, but I suspect this is intentional and that "Customs" was written directly on the the background. Whoever drew the image put in a circular white field, without evidence as far as I am aware. A photo would clinch it. Zerotalk 04:41, 22 October 2020 (UTC)
I will keep it in mind. Not a thing I have paid much attention to. Thanks for the call. Padres Hana (talk) 17:42, 28 October 2020 (UTC)
Image addition on Tel Aviv article
Hi. I've noticed that you added this picture a few months ago. The problem is that section needs some space between images and there's already a picture for Tel Aviv in the 1920s right below (your images doesn't leave any space with the "1930 Survey of Palestine map" above). Could you fix that or just delete another image to make some room? I'm just trying to help. Thanks. Have a good week.--Hachan Base (talk) 13:38, 13 November 2020 (UTC)

Wikipedia Wars and the Israel-Palestine conflict...please fill out my survey?
Hello :)
I am writing my MA dissertation on Wikipedia Wars and the Israel-Palestine conflict, and I noticed that you have contributed to those pages. My dissertation will look at the process of collaborative knowledge production on the Israel-Palestine conflict, and the effect it has on bias in the articles. This will involve understanding the profiles and motivations of editors, contention/controversy and dispute resolution in the talk pages, and bias in the final article.
For more information, you can check out my meta-wiki research page or my user page, where I will be posting my findings when I am done.
I would greatly appreciate if you could take 5 minutes to fill out this quick surveybefore 8 August 2021.
Participation in this survey is entirely voluntary and anonymous. There are no foreseeable risks nor benefits to you associated with this project.
Congratulations, and thank you for helping expand the scope of Wikipedia! We hope you will continue making quality contributions.
The article has been assessed as Start-Class, which is recorded on its talk page. Most new articles start out as Stub-Class or Start-Class and then attain higher grades as they develop over time. You may like to take a look at the grading scheme to see how you can improve the article.
Since you have made at least 10 edits over more than four days, you can now create articles yourself without posting a request. However, you may continue submitting work to Articles for creation if you prefer.
If you have any questions, you are welcome to ask at the help desk. Once you have made at least 10 edits and had an account for at least four days, you will have the option to create articles yourself without posting a request to Articles for creation.

Your recent article submission to Articles for Creation has been reviewed! Unfortunately, it has not been accepted at this time. The reason left by Randykitty was:
The references are mostly about the editors/publishers and do not, or just in passing, mention the journal. In-depth independent sources are needed to establish notability.
Please check the submission for any additional comments left by the reviewer. You are encouraged to edit the submission to address the issues raised and resubmit when they have been resolved.
If you would like to continue working on the submission, go to Draft:Middle East International and click on the "Edit" tab at the top of the window.
If you now believe the draft cannot meet Wikipedia's standards or do not wish to progress it further, you may request deletion. Please go to Draft:Middle East International, click on the "Edit" tab at the top of the window, add "{{Db-g7}}" at the top of the draft text and click the blue "publish changes" button to save this edit.
If you do not make any further changes to your draft, in 6 months, it will be considered abandoned and may be deleted.
Hello, Padres Hana!
Having an article declined at Articles for Creation can be disappointing. If you are wondering why your article submission was declined, please post a question at the Articles for creation help desk. If you have any other questions about your editing experience, we'd love to help you at the Teahouse, a friendly space on Wikipedia where experienced editors lend a hand to help new editors like yourself! See you there! Randykitty (talk) 17:20, 14 March 2022 (UTC)
Hi, to evaluate drafts, I use a script and that automatically adds an invite to the teahouse if an editor has never been invited there. It doesn't check the editor's history. In this case, the script was very wrong as you are evidently a long-tile contributor. My apologies, I have struck the teahouse thing (but left it in place, so that in future this will not be repeated). --Randykitty (talk) 19:04, 14 March 2022 (UTC)
I accept all the points made. Though you haven’t pointed out that the glowing reference (not my edit) is a quote from one of the editors. But since I have 20 years worth of this publication and have started using it as a source for pages about Lebanon I think readers need to know something about where I am getting my information from. Particularly as I have now used it on dozens of pages. Or do I have to give its credentials every time I refer to it. I can do that but it will look very messy.
Lastly being identified as a new editor really hurts. I have been editing since 2008. 13,700 edits over 2,377 pages plus 2,109 entries to Commons. I have started 56 pages and this is the first one I have had difficulty with. In many ways it is the most robust that I have started. I am not impressed and extremely discouraged. Padres Hana (talk) 18:09, 14 March 2022 (UTC)
Padres Hana, my impression is that whoever is declining to accept the Draft of your recent article, Middle East International, may be doing so because he/she does not see where the journal is cited as a reference in any Wikipedia article. Perhaps you can do that yourself, by reading through certain of the journal's entries and making the relevant citations from the journal in several Wikipedia articles, where applicable. Perhaps this will be enough to give the article its due approval.Davidbena (talk) 14:39, 25 March 2022 (UTC)
No, that's not correct. The problem with the draft is (according to two different reviewers) that it doesn't show why this publication is notable. But whether or not something is mentioned on WP or not has nothing to do with notability. It's in-depth independent sources that are needed. --Randykitty (talk) 14:52, 25 March 2022 (UTC)
I am having great difficulty proving MEI’s notability. Personally, having over 400 issues and having relied on it for news about the Middle East for twenty years until it ceased publication, MEI’s notability is self evident. Currently I am trying to establish some estimate of circulation numbers without success. I have found an article from MEI quoted in a book by Edward Said but I don’t see any way of incorporating it. I have had the list of remarkable contributors deleted. In desperation I have listed advertisers who bought adverts in the early editions - but that just looks silly. (Had to join the National Library of Scotland to find that out. So not entirely a waste of time). Examples where I have used MEI are Michael Aoun#Liberation war against Syria: 1989 and War of Liberation (1989-1990). So my wife has just tested positive for Covid... what is the Borgart quote about ‘a hill of beans’? Padres Hana (talk) 20:56, 25 March 2022 (UTC)
