| == The Misplaced Pages Library Survey == | |||
| :The article that you consider "recruitment propaganda for Hezbollah" is currently rated a Misplaced Pages ], one of the higher ratings on Misplaced Pages's quality scale, and a rating held by less than one in four hundred articles. Good articles are considered to be "well written, factually accurate and verifiable, broad in coverage, neutral in point of view, stable, and illustrated, where possible". This isn't the rating I gave the article, this is the rating it was given by others during the last review. Further edits made to the article should improve it, not attempt to inject bias. I have little interest in what you "will not tolerate", as you do not ] these articles. Other will revert (and, in fact, have reverted) your edits if they view them as being overly biased, while I will try to remove the bias when the material seems salvageable. I also will not vet my edits with you prior to making them, as I have no reason to. Misplaced Pages has a ] for resolving any disputes that should arise, and helping to achieve consensus.

Misplaced Pages Wars and the Israel-Palestine conflict...please fill out my survey?
Hello :) I am writing my MA dissertation on Misplaced Pages 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 survey before 15 August 2021.
You have been invited to take part because you are one of the top-ten contributors (according to https://xtools.wmflabs.org/articleinfo) to three of the articles in my corpus: Israeli Air Force, Six-Day War, and Yom-Kippur War. If you believe you have been invited to fill out this survey in error, my apologies and feel free to ignore this. If you are no longer active on Misplaced Pages, you are still eligible to take part in this survey.
Participation in this survey is entirely voluntary and anonymous. There are no foreseeable risks nor benefits to you associated with this project.
Thanks so much,
