Source was inaccurate

Regarding this:

By 22 December, sixty-seven percent of Israelis supported a ceasefire in exchange for the return of hostages held by Hamas.^[1]^[2]

I corrected it from previous version. Al Jazeera source was inaccurate, I checked source on which it relied and the Al Jazeera report misrepresented. 2/3 of Israelis supports a Hostage exchange deal not just a ceasefire. Homerethegreat (talk) 15:51, 27 December 2023 (UTC)[reply]

Proposed merge of 2024 Israeli protests into Israel–Hamas war protests in Israel

Similar topic and content Broc (talk) 20:43, 1 May 2024 (UTC)[reply]

Hey, as the original article writer, heres my opinion regarding this topic:

I have known about Israel-Hamas war protests in Israel and still published this article. The reason is simply because I know of 3 ongoing protests in Israel in relation to the war, but I feel this one is much more sagnificant that it takes the title, in Israeli and foreign media. but even if they're merged, I think the information should be merged somehow into the existing article, because the existing article doesn't say enough about the main protests. אקסינו (talk) 21:11, 1 May 2024 (UTC)[reply]

Support: One article is enough to cover up. --FCBWanderer (talk) 23:43, 26 September 2024 (UTC)[reply]
Support merging. Keep all the information in one article. Hogo-2020 (talk) 09:06, 25 October 2024 (UTC)[reply]

Most of the Israeli protests are "bring the hostages home" NOT anti-war, so I would be against combining them under the banner of "antiwar". TY 75.57.11.86 (talk) 23:22, 5 November 2024 (UTC)[reply]

Proposed changes in "Work and school"

Some sources in the "Work and school" section are misrepresented.

(1) Proposal to remove "Individuals who posted or expressed sentiments believed to be sympathetic toward or pro-Palestinian were suspended and censured from work and school" because the article is talking about events in Canada and this article is about protests happening in Israel.

(2) Proposal to change "Meir Baruchin, a history teacher in Petach Tikvah, was arrested and placed in solitary confinement at a maximum security prison for a Facebook post stating, "What I am trying to do in my posts is present Palestinians as human beings."" to "Meir Baruchin, a history teacher in Petach Tikvah, was arrested for "intent to commit treason" and placed in solitary confinement for a series of Facebook posts critical of Israel's conduct of the war." The source does not mention "maximum security", but does mention multiple posts.

(3) Proposal to change "Two young women were arrested for writing "free Palestine" on a whiteboard in Meitar" to "Two young women employed as cleaners were arrested for tearing flags and writing messages such as "free Palestine" on a whiteboard in a school in Meitar", per source.

(4) Proposal to fix the archive link for the reference used for "Hebrew University suspended Nadera Shalhoub-Kevorkian, a Palestinian professor of law and genocide studies, because she "signed a petition calling Israel’s actions in Gaza genocide, and an occupying entity since 1948"" (the regular link seems to work) Placeholderer (talk) 21:36, 1 September 2024 (UTC)[reply]

@The Mountain of Eden ping if you'd be ok with making changes Placeholderer (talk) 12:24, 18 September 2024 (UTC)[reply]

Not sure why I got pinged. I have never edited this page (nor for that matter even aware of its existence). But since I got pinged, here are my responses to your proposals

No need to remove the sentence, just remove the reference. This is just an intro sentence for the rest of the paragraph.
Sounds reasonable
Only add the women's employment as janitors (better word than cleaners) if they were employed as janitors at the school
Not sure what is wrong with the archive link. The way the template works, if the field url-status is set to "live", both the original and archive are presentend, whereas if the field is set to "dead", then the archive is presented in lieu of the original. I am therefore not sure what is the problem that you are trying to solve.

The Mountain of Eden (talk) 13:52, 18 September 2024 (UTC)[reply]

Sorry to drag you into this article: you'd replied to an edit request I made on the war timeline earlier. I should've thought to ping someone who'd edited this article instead. My bad for cluelessness! Placeholderer (talk) 14:30, 18 September 2024 (UTC)[reply]
