The non-free image
I uploaded a fairly bad image (current one). User:PlanespotterA320, in good faith, uploaded a better one from here. I am just a bit worried that it is not permitted. The thing is, it is from a an article with "...Posted by Mike Sivier in Uncategorized ≈ Leave a comment..." above it. I am not sure the website owns the copyright, and I think I saw the image elsewhere. Also, if they are using the image, and we do not know who owns it, then it might be AP or some news agency that provides images, in which case, not permitted.
So, I'm posting here in hopes that we can find a third, best image. Also, I will post elsewhere to find out if this images is allowed. Hopefully it is.
In the meantime, I have reverted to the fuzzy image, the one where she's wearing rubber gloves. Your feedback here is most welcome.

Birthday
Do we have RS confirming her birthday? Scaleshombre (talk) 16:58, 5 June 2018 (UTC)
- Was added here by @Michaelrooney124: without a source. --Tumbledee (talk) 00:26, 10 June 2018 (UTC)
Without an RS, I find the September 11 reference a little jarring. Any objections to my removing it? Scaleshombre (talk) 03:38, 10 June 2018 (UTC)
- All sources in English that I read mention her age being 21 when she died. I guess this is why it was 1996/1997 previously in this article. The Arabic wikipedia mentions 1997 as her year of birth but I have no idea whether or if, how that is sourced. --Tumbledee (talk) 06:55, 10 June 2018 (UTC)
- I couldn't find any reliable source to support that date. Without a reliable source to support September 11 as the birthdate, I would support its removal, and listing 1996/1997 as the article did previously.--Tdl1060 (talk) 19:56, 10 June 2018 (UTC)
Human shield and throwing gas canister
Najjar's stmt saying she is a human shield and throwing a gas canister has been widely covered, e.g. NYT, and is clearly relevant to her life and circumstances of death, and should be included in the article.Icewhiz (talk) 15:21, 8 June 2018 (UTC)
- I agree. That should be covered in the article. Scaleshombre (talk) 16:19, 8 June 2018 (UTC)
It should also been included that the IDF's video is being widely lambasted as being misleadingly edited.Rafe87 (talk) 20:52, 8 June 2018 (UTC)
- Not widely - some have criticized the cutting of the interview, others have not. They released a short clip. There hasn't been any real criticism of the gas canister throwing bit.Icewhiz (talk) 20:57, 8 June 2018 (UTC)
- " Not widely - some have criticized the cutting of the interview, others have not." LOL, c'mon. And there has been criticism of the gas canister video as well. Rafe87 (talk) 21:13, 8 June 2018 (UTC)
- The Independent: The Israel Defence Forces (IDF) has been widely criticised for releasing a video in which footage of killed Palestinian medic Razan al-Najjar has been edited in order to portray her as “not an angel”. Widely. nableezy - 23:38, 9 June 2018 (UTC)

I disagree. It will make no sense to blow out of proportion the relevancy of a deliberately edited video that's out of context with a misleading translation to begin with. The only revelancy of that video as reported by major news outlets that care to shed light on the issue is that it is a misleading video. If it is relevant enough it can be added to the Public diplomacy of Israel entry. Kokaemo (talk) 23:27, 8 June 2018 (UTC)
- The publication and context of the video should at least be mentioned. Regardless of what you think of the video the release of it and commentary on it from several sources is certainly relevant to the article.--PlanespotterA320 (talk) 15:03, 9 June 2018 (UTC)
- I think it's fine to mention the video as long as it is emphasized that it was doctored, is misleading, and was meant as an attack on Razan's character, as several reliable sources have said.Rafe87 (talk) 21:00, 10 June 2018 (UTC)
- We should, of course, mention the majlr Hamas propaganda efforts around the persona of Najjar followwing her death.Icewhiz (talk) 21:02, 10 June 2018 (UTC)
- The day Hamas produces a false video of her, and is widely lambasted on the press for that, we can do that as well. Rafe87 (talk) 21:42, 10 June 2018 (UTC)
- Your very first statement in this section is literally pushing Israeli propaganda, now an unsourced claim about Hamas propaganda. Source please. nableezy - 21:47, 10 June 2018 (UTC)
- I erred perhaps in saying Hamas without a source. The widespread publicity campaign has been hard to miss - e.g. .Icewhiz (talk) 10:04, 11 June 2018 (UTC)
- How are those sources evidence of a "publicity campaign"? Mondoweiss describes how Israeli victims tend to receive more coverage in Western media than Palestinians (true). The second mentions how the hashtag "Angel of mercy" trended on Twitter in support of her and protecting nurses. And is a "publicity campaign" for a slaughtered nurse a particularly bad thing? The attempts to pass the Israeli video as legitimate in this article over the past few days is much more damaging to the article.TheGracefulSlick (talk) 15:03, 11 June 2018 (UTC)

This edit claims to be "match source", however the source explicitly says that the IDF has been widely criticized. It does not say it was by "critics of Israel". @Icewhiz:, can you explain why you removed "widely" and why you attribute to "critics of Israel" what the source does not? nableezy - 16:45, 11 June 2018 (UTC)
- The Intercept (a highly partisan source with reliability issues - lookup Juan Thompson), does not say widely, it does say
The smear campaign outraged Palestinian and Israeli observers who oppose Israel’s ongoing occupation and lying.
- so in short criticized by anti-occupation oobservers or activists - which the Intercept then goes in to quote (various +972 figures, etc.).Icewhiz (talk) 17:35, 11 June 2018 (UTC)- The IDF spokesmen arer highly partisan sources (defending a war against partisans) with, to put it politely, reliability issues. We quote them.Nishidani (talk) 19:01, 11 June 2018 (UTC)
- The IDF is a side to the events in question and stmts are widely covered - and we use them attributed. The Intercept is not as widely quoted, and in this case we are using them without attribution, in our voice.Icewhiz (talk) 19:32, 11 June 2018 (UTC)
- @Icewhiz: Ok, I see the sourcing was confusing in the sentence. This Independent article does however support widely and does not attribute that material to unnamed "critics of Israel". Ill return the material with the correct sourcing. nableezy - 20:28, 11 June 2018 (UTC)

- which we should do as well if we use them as a source.Icewhiz (talk) 20:35, 11 June 2018 (UTC)- That is not the same thing as saying "critics of Israel" or negating that the criticism was "wide". And that is certainly not the next sentence. nableezy - 20:46, 11 June 2018 (UTC)

Citations
Here I did a major edit on the citations of the article by adding the name of authors of each article (since we used a brief quote from one such attribution is a must) and removed ciations of duplicate republications of a popular article from the New York Times that was published on various websites (including the Middle East Eye). It's weird to have seprate citations that link to the same article of which all but one are just verbatim of the same article.--PlanespotterA320 (talk) 15:03, 9 June 2018 (UTC)
Nurse?
I read that she intended to attend nursing school, but hadn't done so yet. She was working as a first-responder. Paramedic might also be the correct term. But she isn't a nurse, which is a professional title — Preceding unsigned comment added by SaunaTime5000 (talk • contribs) 13:29, 10 June 2018 (UTC)
Unreliable sources
The Intercept is a far-left anti-Semitic site that constantly tells lies about Israel. It's chief propagandist is Glenn Greenwald, an anti-Israel activist. The Independent is a left-wing British paper, and the British left is known for its strong anti-Semitism and support for Arab terrorism against Jews. — Preceding unsigned comment added by 67.149.165.136 (talk) 01:49, 11 June 2018 (UTC)

- Regarding The Intercept at worst it is a whistle-blower web site ... and what is encyclopaedically wrong with that? At best, in February 2016, The Intercept won a National Magazine Award for columns and commentary by the writer Barrett Brown, and it was a finalist in the public interest category. Attacking the messenger is VERY poor debating style. The Intercept has won accolades and stands as WP:RS unless convincingly shown to be consistently incorrect. Even the NYT shows bias and makes mistakes. Erictheenquirer (talk) 15:34, 11 June 2018 (UTC)
