Project Israel To Do:

 Here are some tasks awaiting attention:

legality

Could somebody explain what is "POV" or "undue" about the only referenced piece of information in this entire article? A certain editor, who we can all guess what their previous username was, has removed it on those grounds. nableezy - 17:42, 10 September 2010 (UTC)

what is that supposed to mean? if you have a kind of grudge against me it's fine but don't accuse me of something with out saying some evidence LibiBamizrach (talk) 19:32, 10 September 2010 (UTC)
Thank you for not addressing the issue and again reverting based on a bogus rationale. Here is what the source says:

Settlement of occupied territory is illegal under international law.
But the Settlers' Council has grand plans for the Psagot winery

Just for fun here are a few more:
  • : This is Psagot - what Israelis call a village and the rest of the world calls an illegal settlement.
  • : the heavily fortified illegal Jewish settlement of Psagot.
Unless you have a valid reason for removing the only sourced piece of information in this article I will be returning the line. nableezy - 23:07, 10 September 2010 (UTC)
Please explain how inserting a superfluous line (or two) about the general legality of Israeli settlements into a two-line article about Psagot does not constitute undue weight. —Ynhockey 23:18, 10 September 2010 (UTC)
It is a line about this specific settlement being illegal under international law sourced to an article on BBC discussing this specific settlement and saying it is illegal under international law. Explain how whitewashing that fact, a fact that is worded in a NPOV way by saying it is "considered illegal under international law", is consistent with NPOV which requires that all significant published views be included. nableezy - 23:21, 10 September 2010 (UTC)
I don't really understand how your argument is relevant to the question about undue weight.
Secondly, I am in favor of including all significant published views. Which significant published views about the geographical location, jurisdiction, population, founding year or the founders do you think are missing? (these are the facts currently mentioned in the article).
Back to undue weight—the article's 39 words (including prepositions, etc.) encompass at least 5 important facts about Psagot. If you feel that the legality is another important fact, feel free to mention it in 8 words or less (or even better, expand the article significantly and then add something about legality). However, the BBC source you provided says something different from the edit, and extreme-leftist The Guardian should not be used as a source for such claims, just as (I assume) you would not want to use Arutz Sheva as a source.
Moreover, I have a feeling that you have not read the BBC source. It actually gives both points of view, but you chose to only include one, in complete opposition to your own principle of " all significant published views". I'm not even talking about the fact that the article is about the winery in Psagot, notable for the article, but apparently you are ignoring this completely to extract only the bit that suits your point of view. I propose that you use the source to improve the article (write about its winery) and in the process we can think of something regarding the legality issue. Until you make it clear that your goal is improving the article, I will have trouble supporting your edits about legality.
