Israelites
Thank you for your recent contribution to the article Israelites. As I've made a major set of edits there, I would value your comments on the Talk page about these. Thanks...PiCo (talk) 06:47, 7 July 2010 (UTC)
- Thanks for contacting me. First, I should point out that discussion about an article should be on that articles talk page - it gives other editors a chance to join in. Second, let me say I'll value your input to the article. On the etymology of "Israel" we have to rely on quality sources, as always. But I don't regard this as a matter of great importance. What I'd like to do is to have more on the meaning of "Israel" and "Israelite" in modern Judaism - discussions of ancient history are dry and uninteresting, and it's certainly not my intention to try to prove that the bible is either true or untrue. In a very real sense it's truth lies in the theological, spiritual sphere. Israel, as I understand, is a community of those called to God, and not dependent on biological descent. Yet there are other views. If you can help on this aspect, I think you'll be making a great contribution. A suggestion: let's start by gathering some decent sources. I have to go to sleep now, but I look forward to hearing from you tomorrow (my tomorrow, that is). PiCo (talk) 01:13, 9 July 2010 (UTC)
- Don't be too concerned about that rather aggressive editor - if you feel bullied, tell an admin (doug weller is good - he edits that article a little). Now here's how my thinking is moving: I'd like to get away from history and into the theological meaning. Have a look atg this book: Blackwell Companion to Judaism]. That's the sort of thing I'd like to cover. PiCo (talk) 01:13, 9 July 2010 (UTC)
Ma'ale Adumim
I am going to give you an opportunity to self-revert your edit. Please see WP:AE#Shuki where it looks as though Shuki will be topic-banned for 6 months for removing the material from the lead that you just did. There was a clear closure of a long discussion about this issue that has resulted in an uninvolved admin saying the exact line that you removed has consensus to be included in the lead of the article. If you do not self-revert I will ask that you be banned from editing articles in the Palestine-Israel conflict topic area. Based on the request against Shuki linked above I would anticipate that request being granted. nableezy - 20:17, 29 November 2010 (UTC)
- As your response has made clear that you decline to self-revert, I have brought this issue to AE. See Misplaced Pages:Arbitration/Requests/Enforcement#Accipio_Mitis_Frux. nableezy - 20:50, 29 November 2010 (UTC)
