Re:Starting articles

Hi, PalestineRemembered, I don't want to sound simple but, I apologize I don't know exactly what you're trying to say. Are you criticizing the al-Walaja article, other town article stubs I created or both. Also who is us? Wiki:Project Palestine? If it is this project I have certainly invited other wikipedia editors to expand and look over the articles I started. -- Al Ameer son 02:17, 7 July 2007

Oh ok, I understand now, thanks I am going to try to make a NameSpace if you can give me the wikipedia directions on how to make one. So if I don't have one, other editors can't add to the article or is it sort of like don't finalize on it until it is approved right? -- Al Ameer son 16:36, 7 July 2007 (UTC)

Thank you very much I will do this for now on. -- Al Ameer son 16:36, 7 July 2007 (UTC)

I have created a user page for Huj, (User:Al Ameer son/Huj).I used (http://www.palestineremembered.com/Gaza/Huj/index.html) as my source. -- Al Ameer son 16:23, 13 July 2007 (UTC)

A request from a new member

hi, how are you. A request from a new member. I did my best to clean up and to enrich the article Zionism and racism allegations, but I am still a new wikipedian and my English language is not as good as what it should be. I think I still need some help. I hope you will participate in developing that page.

Please be sure to see my edits in the article since I fear that they will be reverted quicly. --Aaronshavit 21:49, 1 August 2007 (UTC)

Your complaint

Actually, as I explained to you quite clearly at the time, "Actually, it pointed to an article in the Economist. There's no requirement that specific quotes from the citation be provided, beyond what is listed in the article itself. Nevertheless, I have provided one anyway." And that is exactly the case; the reference was always perfectly good, pointing to an article called "Country cousins" in the Economist, and giving the exact date of publication, April 8, 2000. "Country Cousins", The Economist, April 8, 2000. is a fine reference, fully complaint with all Misplaced Pages requirements, and that's what it said. There's no requirement that a lengthy quote from the article be provided, and most citations on Misplaced Pages don't bother doing so. As a courtesy to you I actually went and got that quotation anyway. To have you now claim that this courtesy was somehow deceptive is strange at best. Jayjg 14:04, 3 August 2007 (UTC)

I have made a (nearly) unreserved apology to you at the ArbCom page - but I'm posting the chain of events to your TalkPage (and here) in order to avoid cluttering up that page.

I first made a mild complaint at, whereupon you made the fix, and messaged me that you'd done so (I'm almost uninvolved and not taking part in the edit of that article, hence I don't think I saw your note). Meanwhile, I'd complained more vociferously at and your response this time came across to me as denial and as an accusation of bungling against me. I trust you will similarly withdraw any false allegations you have outstanding against me. PalestineRemembered 14:54, 3 August 2007 (UTC)

What "false allegations" do I have against you? Jayjg 15:00, 3 August 2007 (UTC)

Ah, I see the quid pro quo setup you've arranged; you make a false accusation about me, then retract it, but demand something in return. Neat. Well, it seems likely now that you didn't get that material from a Holocaust denial site. Now, please don't post political screeds on my Talk: page, or anywhere else on Misplaced Pages. Thanks. Jayjg 15:35, 3 August 2007 (UTC)

I've not arranged anything - the message I saw from you (the second one) looks like denial and bluster. In fact, it is denial and bluster. There was another message from you (the first one), which was grudging acceptance and an admission that you'd much improved your reference. We are keen on proper references, now aren't we?

question by PalestineRemembered about notice and my reply here: Mass demolitions in the Negev. Jaakobou 18:36, 29 June 2007 (UTC)

don't make this note situation more uncomfortable by explanations that you intended to attack Israel and then continuing the same soapbox allegations without naming israel specifically. Jaakobou 00:03, 30 June 2007 (UTC)

your sarcasm is impressive. Jaakobou 14:08, 30 June 2007 (UTC)

Folks, come on. This is unhelpful. nadav (talk) 14:14, 30 June 2007 (UTC)

new

these types of edits - found here - where you use the talk page to promote your personal ideology (to me personally). do not, by any means follow civility concepts expected by the project, and quite frankly, wikipedia is not a battle ground. please do not add defamatory content to wikipedia. Jaakobou 18:31, 4 August 2007 (UTC)

p.s. you can remove this, but it only means that you have read it. cheers. Jaakobou 18:42, 4 August 2007 (UTC)

personal style

Please do not attack other editors. If you continue, you will be blocked from editing Misplaced Pages.

i've had just about enough of the way you address me, making unreferenced and at best inaccurate accusations and speaking in my name. now you've even resorted to personal libel/attacks, claiming i took part in the battle of jenin(?!). if you repeat either of these behaviors, i will be forced to report it. please stop.
