Hello, Brian. You asked me about protecting ], though you later removed your question. This is possible, but it doesn't seem to be necessary to me yet. One thing to keep in mind is that it does not matter that much what is written. It is the rather nebulous "consensus" among editors which guides Misplaced Pages, and if what is written in some guideline does not agree with this consensus, then the guideline will in effect be ignored. However, if Democritus continues edit warring, then action will be taken (not by me, of course). -- ] (]) 22:27, 14 January 2006 (UTC)

Greetings Brian, (or at least I would think that is your name)
Because ] is a ], I believe it is in the best interest of everyone for it to be reverted to the original, peer reviewed status, for the time being. This is not to say that I think your edits or bad, or that a rewrite is unnecessary, however, several things:

#1. If it's completely rewritten, the fact that it's been "peer reviewed" should be amended on the talk page to make it clear that it is a previous incarnation, not the current that has been reviewed.

#2. If it passed peer review - that is, no one seemed to think it was significantly flawed - maybe it is better to get more viewpoints on this issue than your own. I know that wikipedia is about being bold etc, but group consensus etc also plays a part.

Introduction to contentious topics

You have recently edited a page related to the Arab–Israeli conflict, a topic designated as contentious. This is a brief introduction to contentious topics and does not imply that there are any issues with your editing.

A special set of rules applies to certain topic areas, which are referred to as contentious topics. These are specially designated topics that tend to attract more persistent disruptive editing than the rest of the project and have been designated as contentious topics by the Arbitration Committee. When editing a contentious topic, Misplaced Pages’s norms and policies are more strictly enforced, and Misplaced Pages administrators have an expanded level of powers and discretion in order to reduce disruption to the project.

Within contentious topics, editors should edit carefully and constructively, refrain from disrupting the encyclopedia, and:

Additionally, you must be logged-in, have 500 edits and an account age of 30 days, and are not allowed to make more than 1 revert within 24 hours on a page within this topic.

Editors are advised to err on the side of caution if unsure whether making a particular edit is consistent with these expectations. If you have any questions about contentious topics procedures, you may ask them at the arbitration clerks' noticeboard or you may learn more about this contentious topic here. You may also choose to note which contentious topics you know about by using the {{Ctopics/aware}} template.
