Formal warning on removing discussions

Do not remove or otherwise shut down discussions in a topic you are deeply involved in, with the usual caveats for ECR violations and plain vandalism. This warning is a result of this AE report. ScottishFinnishRadish (talk) 17:46, 7 October 2024 (UTC)

This user deleted two of my comments because they were "not an edit request" but left other comments that are not "edit requests". Here are two examples:
Seeing his Contribution history, it is clear that he is very focused on issues related to Israel-Palestine. I am not jumping to conclusions but FYI @ScottishFinnishRadish. advance512 (talk) 08:11, 29 October 2024 (UTC)
advance512, those postings were not edit requests. In the Arab/Israel conflict topic area if you make an edit request and it is declined then you have very limited recourse. I'm not sure what other comments you are concerned about, but no editor can be expected to enforce ECR without missing things from time to time.

Invitation to participate in a research

Hello,

The Wikimedia Foundation is conducting a survey of Wikipedians to better understand what draws administrators to contribute to Wikipedia, and what affects administrator retention. We will use this research to improve experiences for Wikipedians, and address common problems and needs. We have identified you as a good candidate for this research, and would greatly appreciate your participation in this anonymous survey.

You do not have to be an Administrator to participate.

The survey should take around 10-15 minutes to complete. You may read more about the study on its Meta page and view its privacy statement .

Please find our contact on the project Meta page if you have any questions or concerns.

Kind Regards,

WMF Research Team

ANI discussion

Information icon There is currently a discussion at Wikipedia:Administrators' noticeboard/Incidents regarding an issue with which you may have been involved. Thank you. I mentioned you while summarizing one editor's complaint against another, so this is just a courtesy notice. Schazjmd (talk) 22:32, 23 October 2024 (UTC)

Have you considered archiving

This talk page goes back almost 15 years, and the size is getting pretty unwieldy. Have you considered an auto-archiver? ~Anachronist (talk) 23:02, 23 October 2024 (UTC)

Hello, Selfstudier,
I was about to post this same comment. Please consider archiving the older parts of this talk page. Thank you. Liz Read! Talk! 05:12, 1 November 2024 (UTC)

Talk:Weaponization of antisemitism

Please stop casting aspersions about my intentions. I don’t know how changing Suggestions that the term has been exploited have been raised during phases of the Arab–Israeli conflict to The charge of weaponization has been raised in context of the Arab–Israeli conflict can be interpreted as some kind of bad-faith sabotage or POV-pushing, or whatever you are implying I’m up to, but it’s impossible to collaborate when your tone in every discussion with me is a mix of complaints pointed at no one (Ah, a tag, the usual thing then.), confusing comments that you just walk back when asked about (Just ignore them [my comments] then. Maybe we're both confused.) and laboriously evading simple questions like “which sources do you think are the best in this article?” If you’re sure I’m a bad-faith operator whose conduct is so outrageous that there’s no way or reason to collaborate civilly, then you’d better escalate this. Short of that, please just stop. ꧁Zanahary꧂ 15:46, 24 October 2024 (UTC)

I already commented previously about your behavior on your talk page a while ago and judging by your latest efforts, it hasn't improved any. This kind of comment merely confirms my impression. Selfstudier (talk) 15:53, 24 October 2024 (UTC)
Are you going to stop casting aspersions about my intentions, or escalate? ꧁Zanahary꧂ 15:57, 24 October 2024 (UTC)
That depends on how you continue to behave at the article. Selfstudier (talk) 16:01, 24 October 2024 (UTC)

Administrator Noticeboard Notice (October 2024)

Information icon There is currently a discussion at Wikipedia:Administrators' noticeboard/Incidents regarding an issue with which you may have been involved. Thank you.The Weather Event Writer (Talk Page) 04:28, 27 October 2024 (UTC)

We're well beyond it now, but...

the edit request was pretty borderline as far as ECR goes, but looked like a good faith attempt. I certainly wouldn't have reverted five times without engaging in some discussion about what exactly the issue was with the editor. ScottishFinnishRadish (talk) 18:42, 29 October 2024 (UTC)

I did engage with the editor following the first two times the editor was reverted (not by me). To no avail. Selfstudier (talk) 18:49, 29 October 2024 (UTC)
Furthermore, I think I will leave ECR enforcement to others from now on. Selfstudier (talk) 18:51, 29 October 2024 (UTC)
Please keep edit requests simple, change X to Y, sourced as necessary. No lengthy explanations, justifications, etc and avoid section headings such as "Controversial, unsourced statement in lead; invites accusations of antisemitic bias", "Edit Request" is sufficient. Thanks. was good and no one is blocking you, so I don't think you overstepped good faith ECR enforcement. I just think it could have sat on the page for a bit while someone tried to talk them down from the ledge that they're now over. ScottishFinnishRadish (talk) 18:56, 29 October 2024 (UTC)

Jinx!

Maybe we should coordinate our filings in the future to avoid duplication 😂 Levivich (talk) 20:17, 31 October 2024 (UTC)

Edit warring on Israel

You currently appear to be engaged in an edit war. This means that you are repeatedly changing content back to how you think it should be although other editors disagree. Users are expected to collaborate with others, to avoid editing disruptively, and to try to reach a consensus, rather than repeatedly undoing other users' edits once it is known that there is a disagreement.

Points to note:

  1. Edit warring is disruptive regardless of how many reverts you have made;
  2. Do not edit war even if you believe you are right.

If you find yourself in an editing dispute, use the article's talk page to discuss controversial changes and work towards a version that represents consensus among editors. You can post a request for help at an appropriate noticeboard or seek dispute resolution. In some cases, it may be appropriate to request temporary page protection. If you engage in an edit war, you may be blocked from editing.
With these edits [1] [2] you are engaging in an edit war re-adding controversial content on a CTOP area while an RfC is ongoing about its inclusion (and this is certainly not the first time). Your last edit summary is also wrong, as the RfC is clearly discussing the body as well, not just the lead. Please self-revert yourself. ABHammad (talk) 18:39, 28 November 2024 (UTC)

@ABHammad: I suggest you reread the RFC question (that's the bit above the openers signature in case you don't know).
Your first diff is my adding new properly sourced relevant material to the article body so is not edit warring.
Make another false accusation and I will make a report. Selfstudier (talk) 21:09, 28 November 2024 (UTC)
