Hi ה-זפר! Thanks for contributing to Wikipedia. |
This is a note about your recent edit which changes the lead of Jerusalem. Please see this item from Wikipedia:Arbitration Committee/Discretionary sanctions/Log#Palestine-Israel articles:
- Jerusalem is placed under the following page-level restriction: As the results of Wikipedia:Requests for comment/Jerusalem regarding the article's lead represent the community's consensus at a well-attended discussion, a new request for comments must be undertaken and reach consensus prior to any changes being made to the article's lead section. AE: [1] Seraphimblade Talk to me 13:25, 4 July 2016 (UTC)
I'm also alerting you to the discretionary sanctions under WP:ARBPIA. Thank you, EdJohnston (talk) 12:54, 24 August 2016 (UTC)
Please carefully read this information:
The Arbitration Committee has authorised discretionary sanctions to be used for pages regarding the Arab–Israeli conflict, a topic which you have edited. The Committee's decision is here.
Discretionary sanctions is a system of conduct regulation designed to minimize disruption to controversial topics. This means uninvolved administrators can impose sanctions for edits relating to the topic that do not adhere to the purpose of Wikipedia, our standards of behavior, or relevant policies. Administrators may impose sanctions such as editing restrictions, bans, or blocks. This message is to notify you sanctions are authorised for the topic you are editing. Before continuing to edit this topic, please familiarise yourself with the discretionary sanctions system. Don't hesitate to contact me or another editor if you have any questions.Template:Z33 EdJohnston (talk) 12:55, 24 August 2016 (UTC)
Israeli railways and discussing changes
Hi ה-זפר,
First of all, if you want to make a major change to a template, like here, certainly a navigation template that appears in many articles, please discuss the changes before making the edit, not vice versa.
In any case, I have opened a central discussion in your place, you are welcome to state your rationale for removing most of the template. —Ynhockey (Talk) 10:08, 14 September 2016 (UTC)
1rr
There is a one revert rule per 24 hours on all Arab-Israeli articles.[2]
You have repeatedly violated this and are refusing to get consensus at talk pages and instead resorted to edit warring. If you do this one more time I will file an arbitration enforcement complaint. --Supreme Deliciousness (talk) 19:41, 23 September 2016 (UTC)

The PA did not turn into the SoP
There was a debate on this last October and although it didn't reach a clear consensus, the claim that the PNA was transformed to the SoP was removed because of the lack of sources and the fact the Palestinian President himself said he is not going to dismantle the PA during a UN speech in 30 Setptember 2015.--Bolter21 (talk to me) 23:51, 24 September 2016 (UTC)
Disambiguation link notification for September 26
Hi. Thank you for your recent edits. Wikipedia appreciates your help. We noticed though that when you edited Royal Monetary Authority of Bhutan, you added a link pointing to the disambiguation page BTN (check to confirm | fix with Dab solver). Such links are almost always unintended, since a disambiguation page is merely a list of "Did you mean..." article titles. Read the FAQ • Join us at the DPL WikiProject.

Help needed with Zeek article
Shalom, I have been following your edits as of late as a token of excellence I would to ask for your assistance improving Zeek Wikipedia article. I will be honest and come forward that I have a stated COI with the company but I feel the information presented in the article is notable. Any input from you regarding this matter would be amazing. Thanks, Eddard 'Ned' Stark (talk) 20:38, 26 September 2016 (UTC)
- @Eddard 'Ned' Stark, Surely I'll look into the article from now on. Regards. ה-זפרt@lk 05:24, 5 October 2016 (UTC)
Wikipedia and copyright
Hello ה-זפר, and welcome to Wikipedia. All or some of your addition(s) to Bhutanese ngultrum has had to be removed, as it appears to have added copyrighted material without permission from the copyright holder. While we appreciate your contributing to Wikipedia, there are certain things you must keep in mind about using information from your sources to avoid copyright or plagiarism issues here.
- You can only copy/translate a small amount of a source, and you must mark what you take as a direct quotation with double quotation marks (") and cite the source using an inline citation. You can read about this at Wikipedia:Non-free content in the sections on "text". See also Help:Referencing for beginners, for how to cite sources here.
- Aside from limited quotation, you must put all information in your own words and structure, in proper paraphrase. Following the source's words too closely can create copyright problems, so it is not permitted here; see Wikipedia:Close paraphrasing. (There is a college-level introduction to paraphrase, with examples, hosted by the Online Writing Lab of Purdue.) Even when using your own words, you are still, however, asked to cite your sources to verify information and to demonstrate that the content is not original research.
- Our primary policy on using copyrighted content is Wikipedia:Copyrights. You may also want to review Wikipedia:Copy-paste.
- If you own the copyright to the source you want to copy or are a designated agent, you may be able to license that text so that we can publish it here. However, there are steps that must be taken to verify that license before you do. See Wikipedia:Donating copyrighted materials.
- In very rare cases (that is, for sources that are public domain or compatibly licensed), it may be possible to include greater portions of a source text. However, please seek help at the help desk before adding such content to the article. 99.9% of sources may not be added in this way, so it is necessary to seek confirmation first. If you do confirm that a source is public domain or compatibly licensed, you will still need to provide full attribution; see Wikipedia:Plagiarism for the steps you need to follow.
- Also note that Wikipedia articles may not be copied or translated without attribution. If you want to copy or translate from another Wikipedia project or article, you can, but please follow the steps in Wikipedia:Copying within Wikipedia.
It's very important that contributors understand and follow these practices, as policy requires that people who persistently do not must be blocked from editing. If you have any questions about this, you are welcome to leave me a message on my talk page. Thank you. /wiae /tlk 22:10, 27 September 2016 (UTC)
Copying licensed material requires proper attribution
It appears that you have added material to the article Bhutanese ngultrum using content from this web page. While you are welcome to re-use licensed content, here or elsewhere, Wikipedia's licensing does require that you provide attribution to the original contributor(s). When copying from other compatibly-licensed web pages, please at minimum mention in an edit summary at the new page where you got the content. The attribution has been provided for this situation, but if you have copied licensed material before, even if it was a long time ago, please go back and provide attribution. Let me know if you have any questions. — Diannaa 🍁 (talk) 13:29, 29 September 2016 (UTC)
Also, I have removed part of your addition to the history section, as the content is almost identical to the web page here. All content you add to this wiki needs to be written on your own words. People who repeatedly violate our copyright policy are blocked from editing. — Diannaa 🍁 (talk) 13:32, 29 September 2016 (UTC)
- @Diannaa, I understand, but you could help to rewrite the information, as it was important. Thank you. ה-זפרt@lk 13:36, 29 September 2016 (UTC)
- I have done it this time, but you really have to learn how to do it yourself. Here are some suggestiosn: One thing I find that works for me is to read over the source material and then pretend I am verbally describing the topic to a friend in my own words. It's been suggested that not so much as three words should be together in the same order as the source. Stuff should also be presented in a different order where possible. Summarize rather than paraphrase. There's some reading material on this topic at Wikipedia:Close paraphrasing and/or have a look at the material at Purdue. — Diannaa 🍁 (talk) 14:15, 29 September 2016 (UTC)
- @Diannaa, Thank you for the link, it really will help me to make my English better. I have followed the guide from you link and rewritten the History section of Ngultrum. It's nice to know you're a librarian, my cousin is a librarian too. Regards. ה-זפרt@lk 14:40, 29 September 2016 (UTC)

We noticed though that when you edited Bhutanese ngultrum, you added a link pointing to the disambiguation page Mint (check to confirm | fix with Dab solver).

Zeek Wikipedia Article
Hi There,
I have been following your recent edits on Wikipedia. You seem like you truly know your way around Wiki. I would like to ask you help improve Zeek Wikipedia article. Zeek is an Israeli-based start-up with a wide range of media coverage
Any input from you would be greatly appreciated.
Looking forward to hearing from you. Ymd2004 (talk) 21:48, 4 October 2016 (UTC)

The Original Barnstar |
Thank you for your recent edits on Zeek.
Your edits are evidence of quality Wiki skills. Would you consider placing your opinion in the article entry? Thanks Ymd2004 (talk) 08:01, 5 October 2016 (UTC) |
- @Ymd2004, I guess the page is saved before my opinion, and we must add more info and also an article page on the Hebrew Wiki as well. Regards, Thank you so much! David Aaron talk 19:29, 8 October 2016 (UTC)
AE
Per the AE thread here, you are indefinitely banned from all articles and discussions relating to the Israel/Palestine topic area, broadly construed. If you have any questions regarding the scope of your ban you may ask for clarification, but violations of the topic ban will lead to rapidly escalating sanctions. The Blade of the Northern Lights (話して下さい) 15:11, 8 October 2016 (UTC)
- @The Blade of the Northern Lights, If you could just help me understand better "you are indefinitely banned from all articles and discussions relating to the Israel/Palestine topic area, broadly construed". Also If I need to learn what not to do to cause it again? Regards, Thank you David Aaron talk 19:26, 8 October 2016 (UTC)
- The template
{{AE sanction}}
lays it out (I'd forgotten about its existence until the recent reminder on my talkpage). Let me know if you have any other questions after reading that. The Blade of the Northern Lights (話して下さい) 00:31, 9 October 2016 (UTC)

Warning
Your recent edits are a violation of your topic ban. This is your only warning: if you continue to edit in this area, you will be blocked from editing. Guy (Help!) 11:05, 12 October 2016 (UTC)
Topic ban"?
I was told about a Topic ban, but couldn't understand why? and what triggered it? If so How can I not let it happen again or correct it? also if really banned how to get unbanned and make sure I don't face it again? What should be learnt or kept in mind by me? I'm really confused. A Help and a guide will be really helpful. Thank you. David Aaron talk 12:22, 12 October 2016 (UTC)
- See WP:TBAN. You may not edit any articles in this area, including talk pages and related articles, and may not comment on it. Guy (Help!) 12:48, 12 October 2016 (UTC)
- @Guy, How could I request to be unbanned and If anything more I'm supposed to refer to? Regards. David Aaron talk 12:51, 12 October 2016 (UTC)
- You would request lifting of the ban at Wikipedia:Arbitration/Requests/Clarification and Amendment. I recommend you do not. An appeal at this stage will fail. Your ban covers articles related to Israel and Palestine, details at Wikipedia:Requests for arbitration/Palestine-Israel articles. Guy (Help!) 13:17, 12 October 2016 (UTC)
- @Guy, What would you recommend me to do? I mean when could it be best for me to appeal? I see it's "indefinitely banned"!? I could have been given a notice, until I realized the issue on Golan Heights was finally brought down to talk page and discussed = reverts stopped. David Aaron talk 13:46, 12 October 2016 (UTC)
- I would advise you to follow the advice given by the Hitch-Hiker's Guide to the Galaxy to hikers seeking to get a lift from a Vogon: forget it. I mean, literally. Stay away from those areas, edit productively and uncontroversially somewhere else, and don't even think about how soon you can go back to pushing your POV on those articles. Guy (Help!) 14:01, 12 October 2016 (UTC)
- @Guy, haha, nice, well yes I got what you said: edit productively and uncontroversially! One last worry, what happens if I did a uncontroversial edit on articles related to IL-PS conflict, like adding ref, image or sentence enhancements in mean time? also could there be a catchy way to notice which articles are covered under the topic? Thank you so much Guy! David Aaron talk 14:26, 12 October 2016 (UTC)
- No, you may not edit those articles at all. You also may not mention or discuss the subject on other pages (except to appeal or request clarification regarding the ban, like you're doing here), may not ask or encourage other editors to do things on your behalf, and so on. My general advice is to take those pages off your watchlist entirely, go find another area of interest to edit in, and do that and stay out of trouble for six months to a year. After some period of learning how things work here and showing you can do it well, you can appeal and might be given another chance at it. But for future reference, this is a collaborative project, and your attitude that you don't need to discuss your edits when they are disputed won't fly here. If someone disagrees with you, you need to take it to talk and discuss it, not just plow ahead. Seraphimblade Talk to me 14:36, 12 October 2016 (UTC)

- @Guy, How could I request to be unbanned and If anything more I'm supposed to refer to? Regards. David Aaron talk 12:51, 12 October 2016 (UTC)
- (edit conflict) Hi, David. Please look up what topic ban means here: no, you can't edit the PIA topic area at all. It doesn't make any difference if the edits are uncontroversial. Still less if you yourself think they are uncontroversial.. but the long and the short of it is you can't edit those pages at all, nor discuss the PIA topic on any page, for example not even a user talkpage, except in the context of making an appeal.
- JzG gives you good advice. You may however, if you still want to, appeal the ban at one of three venues, as described here. (Appealing to the administrator who placed the ban, Blade, would be pointless IMO, as he merely conveyed the consensus at arbitration enforcement noticeboard.) That is to say, you can request review of the ban at the administrators’ noticeboard ("AN"), or at the arbitration enforcement noticeboard ("AE") or at "ARCA". The difference between them is that at AN, your ban would be reviewed by the community, at AE by uninvolved admins, and at ARCA by the Arbitration committee.
- Please note that you're free to edit the rest of Wikipedia. If you do edit productively and uncontroversially somewhere else for six months, an appeal might be productive. (If you just stay away from Wikipedia for six months, I can pretty well guarantee it won't be.) Good luck. Bishonen | talk 14:42, 12 October 2016 (UTC).
- The two above have covered what I was going to say. I will just add: resist the temptation to push at the boundaries. If there is the slightest doubt, don't do it. JohnCD (talk) 14:46, 12 October 2016 (UTC)
Israeli slant
Editors have previously claimed that you have too much of an Israeli slant in your editing style. This may fall foul of our policies in regards to neutrality. I ask that it would be more conducive if you tried to edit a bit more neutrally otherwise our articles may contain bias. Thank you. Pwolit iets (talk) 08:42, 14 October 2016 (UTC)
Violation
Also, you edits to Jerusalem may mean you have fallen foul of your topic ban. Don't do it again. Your topic ban clearly states that the topic area is broadly construed and you seemt o be ignoring this, which may indicate a lack of respect for wikipedia norms on your part. Pwolit iets (talk) 08:49, 14 October 2016 (UTC)
- I know and I did change my editing style, but now I just feel like crying, if you check the history of the page you mentioned above, a user added the extra time zone, I just removd the time zone wich is not even followed in the city, and asked it to be discussed, also removed an unofficial website. I don't know even if replying to this message is a violation, but yes I really can't understand why was I put in the topic ban, and how do I be sure if an article is a part of the topic. Regards and Sorry. David Aaron talk 12:21, 14 October 2016 (UTC)
Asian 10,000 Challenge invite
Hi. The Wikipedia:WikiProject Asia/The 10,000 Challenge has recently started, based on the UK/Ireland Wikipedia:The 10,000 Challenge and Wikipedia:WikiProject Africa/The 10,000 Challenge. The idea is not to record every minor edit, but to create a momentum to motivate editors to produce good content improvements and creations and inspire people to work on more countries than they might otherwise work on. There's also the possibility of establishing smaller country or regional challenges for places like South East Asia, Japan/China or India etc, much like Wikipedia:The 1000 Challenge (Nordic). For this to really work we need diversity and exciting content and editors from a broad range of countries regularly contributing. At some stage we hope to run some contests to benefit Asian content, a destubathon perhaps, aimed at reducing the stub count would be a good place to start, based on the current Wikipedia:WikiProject Africa/The Africa Destubathon which has produced near 200 articles in just three days. If you would like to see this happening for Asia, and see potential in this attracting more interest and editors for the country/countries you work on please sign up and being contributing to the challenge! This is a way we can target every country of Asia, and steadily vastly improve the encyclopedia. We need numbers to make this work so consider signing up as a participant! Thank you. --Ser Amantio di NicolaoChe dicono a Signa?Lo dicono a Signa. 05:05, 21 October 2016 (UTC)
Your edits at Israel
Your recent edits at Israel are the latest violation of your topic ban. Please stop editing articles related to the Arab-Israeli conflict or you may be blocked from editing. Thank you. — MShabazz Talk/Stalk 13:53, 23 October 2016 (UTC)
ANI about repeated topic ban violations
There is currently a discussion at Wikipedia:Administrators' noticeboard/Incidents regarding an issue with which you may have been involved. Thank you. Jeppiz (talk) 15:21, 23 October 2016 (UTC)
Arbitration enforcement block
![](https://upload.wikimedia.org/wikipedia/commons/thumb/f/f9/Balance_icon.svg/40px-Balance_icon.svg.png)
If you believe this block is unjustified, please read the guide to appealing blocks (specifically this section) before appealing. Place the following on your talk page: {{unblock|reason=Please copy my appeal to the [[WP:AE|arbitration enforcement noticeboard]] or [[WP:AN|administrators' noticeboard]]. Your reason here OR place the reason below this template. ~~~~}}
. If you intend to appeal on the arbitration enforcement noticeboard I suggest you use the arbitration enforcement appeals template on your talk page so it can be copied over easily. You may also appeal directly to me (by email), before or instead of appealing on your talk page.
Reminder to administrators: In May 2014, ArbCom adopted the following procedure instructing administrators regarding Arbitration Enforcement blocks: "No administrator may modify a sanction placed by another administrator without: (1) the explicit prior affirmative consent of the enforcing administrator; or (2) prior affirmative agreement for the modification at (a) AE or (b) AN or (c) ARCA (see "Important notes" [in the procedure]). Administrators modifying sanctions out of process may at the discretion of the committee be desysopped."
Per this notice at ANI, for continued violation of your topic ban from articles and discussions covered by WP:ARBPIA, broadly construed, imposed per an AE discussion by User:The Blade of the Northern Lights. If you want to appeal, I suggest filling out the {{Arbitration enforcement appeal}} form and someone will copy it to AE for you. EdJohnston (talk) 03:24, 24 October 2016 (UTC)
