I'd say yes, those do fall under your ban, except for Mossad. With Mossad, you can edit anything that isn't related to the ARBPIA topic area (if you have any questions about that, I'm happy to clarify). Since you asked me, I'm not going to hold those edits over you because I think there was some gray on a couple of those articles, but make sure to keep it in mind in the future.

have a look at my reply under the "discussion" section of the "Nazi Germany" article —Preceding unsigned comment added by 203.83.248.32 (talk) 10:24, 18 May 2010 (UTC)
Hi! Are you sure about this edit? You may well be right, but I thought the 1948 Arab–Israeli War was well before the Suez Crisis. I would appreciate it if you can clarify the situation for me. Thanks in advance. Cheers, Pdfpdf (talk) 14:28, 27 May 2010 (UTC)
I undid your edit. Categories are important to articles, and the ones that were on there were appropriate. FinalRapture - † ☪ 02:55, 28 May 2010 (UTC)
- I just looked at your contributions. Unless there is consensus I am asking you to stop. FinalRapture - † ☪ 02:56, 28 May 2010 (UTC)

Please stop removing categories from articles without consensus. --Andrensath (talk | contribs) 04:11, 28 May 2010 (UTC)
- With regard to your edit summary stating that including [[Category:Battles involving Israel]] is redundant with the inclusion of [[Category:Operation Defensive Shield]]: this is incorrect per WP:MILMOS#SPECIFIC and WP:MILMOS#NESTED, as [[Category:Operation Defensive Shield]] is not a subcategory of [[Category:Battles involving Israel]]. --Andrensath (talk | contribs) 04:29, 28 May 2010 (UTC)
Irgun
Hi, could you explain this edit to Irgun? I'm concerned because I couldn't find those categories in Category:Irgun --Profitoftruth85 (talk) 03:52, 29 May 2010 (UTC)
- I think you may be mistaken, because they simply are not there... --Profitoftruth85 (talk) 04:11, 29 May 2010 (UTC)
- Yes, but that edit just obscures the categories, they are supposed to make it easier for users to reach those pages, by eliminating those categories from the main article it makes it impossible for the average user to navigate to related articles--Profitoftruth85 (talk) 04:33, 29 May 2010 (UTC)

I did put the Inuse template on the Israeli wars and armed conflicts for a reason...
For the moment, please let me make the additions to the "Armed conflicts involving the IDF not defined as wars" section with no additions changes from your side until I remove the inuse template - you see any changes you make while I am making my additions deletes my additions. I am glad you are interested in this topic too and hope we would be able to construct a better article together. TheCuriousGnome (talk) 05:56, 29 May 2010 (UTC)

You currently appear to be engaged in an edit war according to the reverts you have made on Irgun. Note that the three-revert rule prohibits making more than three reversions on a single page within a 24-hour period. Additionally, users who perform several reversions in content disputes may be blocked for edit warring even if they do not technically violate the three-revert rule. When in dispute with another editor you should first try to discuss controversial changes to work towards wording and content that gains a consensus among editors. Should that prove unsuccessful, you are encouraged to seek dispute resolution, and in some cases it may be appropriate to request page protection. Please stop the disruption, otherwise you may be blocked from editing. RolandR (talk) 09:25, 29 May 2010 (UTC)
- So how about you find the line in the source to support your revert? When you can't, please feel free to apologize and self revert.
Hi, regarding this edit, what's your source? Neither the Hebrew nor English wikipedia say anything of the sort. Poliocretes (talk) 07:21, 22 June 2010 (UTC)

Using fair use images as icons
Hello. I note that you have wanted to place iconized versions of File:PIJ emblem.png and File:Logoprc.png onto 2004 Israel–Gaza conflict. This usage is not supported by our policy at WP:NFCC. Specifically, the usage fails WP:NFCC #1 because identifying the group is accomplished with text, therefore a textual equivalent is available. WP:NFCC #3a, because this minimal use by overusing fair use images in the article. WP:NFCC #8 significance, because with the images so iconicized it makes them virtually indiscernible at such a low resolution. Please do not restore this usage. If you think this usage should be permitted, please take the issue up at either WT:NFC or WP:NFCR. Thank you, --Hammersoft (talk) 15:52, 10 July 2010 (UTC)
Gaza War
You need to explain your revert on the talk page o else it will be reverted.Cptnono (talk) 19:43, 19 September 2010 (UTC)
- Your edit has been reverted. Please take any further changes for the article to the talk page first. Thank you. Bjmullan (talk) 08:32, 20 September 2010 (UTC)
- I'm interested to know your reasoning behind adding details of Hamas' rockets into the section "Controversial tactics allegedly used by Israel". This section is for discussing controversial tactics used by Israel, there is a separate section for discussing controversial tactics used by Hamas. I propose to delete it from this section, if you think it is important you can add it to the Hamas section.
Vandalism
Please refrain from making unconstructive edits to Wikipedia, as you did at Zionism. Your edits appear to constitute vandalism and have been reverted or removed. If you would like to experiment, please use the sandbox. I invited others to discuss or correct the biased statements in the page to improve article. Notices should not be removed without discussion. —Preceding unsigned comment added by Zpsmi (talk • contribs) 15:12, 24 September 2010 (UTC)
Images
You need to go through all of your recent edits and sel revert any inclusions of nonfree material. See Wikipedia:Non-free content and Wikipedia:Copyrights. It looks like you have gone through multiple articles adding nonfree content and I would prefer not to have to spend the time cleaning up the error and reverting on articles that should have limited reverts being done. Please do this as soon as possible. If you do not understand the guidelines or would like to request some assistance on alernatives to removal (not sure if there is with your recent edits) please ask. If you do not do this I will probably be opening up a report and the Administrators Noticeboard for incidents since you are putting Wikipedia in legal jeopardy (probably not bad enough for anything to really happen), shedding a bad light on Wikipedia, and causeing undue burden to other editors.Cptnono (talk) 23:51, 25 September 2010 (UTC)

- That one is also not acceptable. #Using fair use images as icons this sums it up pretty well but there are lots of blue links to go through. Basically, the the logo is not considered free for us to use. If there is a copyright template on the file page (see: File:Fateh-logo.jpg#Licensing} then it should not be used. The exception is at the main article discussing Fatah since rationale for using it has been provided. A proper fair use rationale would more than likely not be accepted for other articles. Does that make any sense/ I know it is confusing to understand at first so let me know if I can clarify.Cptnono (talk) 21:19, 26 September 2010 (UTC)

You have to explain your reverts. I gave a reason in the edit summary and opened a section on the talk page and you reverted without either an edit summary or making a note why. That is not acceptable. nableezy - 15:03, 30 October 2010 (UTC)

Edit warring
I have reported you at Arbitration Requests/Enforcement [1] for breach of the one revert rule on all articles related to the Israel/Palestine conflict at Givati Brigade. You may wish too self-revert in order to mitigate any possible sanction. RolandR (talk) 23:36, 21 November 2010 (UTC)
Notification
As a result of an arbitration case, the Arbitration Committee has acknowledged long-term and persistent problems in the editing of articles related to the Palestinian-Israeli conflict, broadly understood. As a result, the Committee has enacted broad editing restrictions, described here and below.
- Any uninvolved administrator may, on his or her own discretion, impose sanctions on any editor working in the area of conflict if, despite being warned, that editor repeatedly or seriously fails to adhere to the purpose of Wikipedia, any expected standards of behavior, or any normal editorial process.
- The sanctions imposed may include blocks of up to one year in length; bans from editing any page or set of pages within the area of conflict; bans on any editing related to the topic or its closely related topics; restrictions on reverts or other specified behaviors; or any other measures which the imposing administrator believes are reasonably necessary to ensure the smooth functioning of the project.
- Prior to any sanctions being imposed, the editor in question shall be given a warning with a link to this decision; and, where appropriate, should be counseled on specific steps that he or she can take to improve his or her editing in accordance with relevant policies and guidelines.
- Discretionary sanctions imposed under the provisions of this decision may be appealed to the imposing administrator, the appropriate administrators' noticeboard (currently WP:AE), or the Committee.
These editing restrictions may be applied to any editor for cause, provided the editor has been previously informed of the case. This message is to so inform you. This message does not necessarily mean that your current editing has been deemed a problem; this is a template message crafted to make it easier to notify any user who has edited the topic of the existence of these sanctions.
Generally, the next step, if an administrator feels your conduct on pages in this topic area is disruptive, would be a warning, to be followed by the imposition of sanctions (although in cases of serious disruption, the warning may be omitted). Hopefully no such action will be necessary.
This notice is only effective if given by an uninvolved administrator and logged here. PhilKnight (talk) 20:19, 23 November 2010 (UTC)

Blocked
Since you have persisted to ignore our copyright policies and continue to insert copyrighted images into articles, despite a number of warnings above on this page, I have blocked you until you indicate that you understand the problem and state that you will not repeat it.

Done
Per email, the user has promised not to continue inserting non-free images into articles whilst violating WP:NFCC. Any admin may reblock the user if he does not keep to this promise. Black Kite (t) (c) 01:10, 29 December 2010 (UTC)
I have deleted your recent edits to the above article. Although involved in Bosnia as UN troops, it was not awarded a battle honour or even a theatre honour in relation to the conflict. As for the Suez conflict Operation Musketeer in 1956, well they were never even deployed to it. You will note in the text section 'Garrison Duties' they were at that time stationed in Malta, training, then flew to Cyprus undertaking action against EOKA terrorists. Their postings during that period of the 1950s were:- September 1955 - August 1956 - UK - Chiseldon, Chiseldon Camp August 1956 - November 1956 - Malta, St Pauls Bay, Billets November 1956 - September 1957 - Cyprus, Kermia Camp, with units in Famagusta, Troodos & Nicosia.
Please revert your last edit to the template, which violates 1RR. Also, please stop edit-warring and discuss your concerns on the template's Talk page. Thank you. — Malik Shabazz Talk/Stalk 19:25, 18 February 2011 (UTC)

Notice to administrators: In a March 2010 decision, the Committee held that "Administrators are prohibited from reversing or overturning (explicitly or in substance) any action taken by another administrator pursuant to the terms of an active arbitration remedy, and explicitly noted as being taken to enforce said remedy, except: (a) with the written authorization of the Committee, or (b) following a clear, substantial, and active consensus of uninvolved editors at a community discussion noticeboard (such as WP:AN or WP:ANI). If consensus in such discussions is hard to judge or unclear, the parties should submit a request for clarification on the proper page. Any administrator that overturns an enforcement action outside of these circumstances shall be subject to appropriate sanctions, up to and including desysopping, at the discretion of the Committee."

Blocked 1 week for ARBPIA violation and disruption
Your behavior of late has significantly exceeded allowable edit conflict on Wikipedia. We expect better of all editors.
You were warned above about the heightened scrutiny applied to Palestine/Israeli areas on Wikipedia. You chose to engage in this edit war, in which you removed a number of apparently well sourced items of information across a number of articles, despite that warning. You seem to have outright reverted literally everything Owain the 1st did for a while today.

As a contributor to the ancient history of near east, i have noticed you mixed up categories for three different ages and three different (though of course related) kingdoms - Samaritan Revolts against Byzantium (485-556) are unrelated to "Jewish-Roman Wars" (66-136), while the Jewish-Roman Wars are not part of "conflicts of ancient Israel" (unified Kingdom - 10th century BCE, Kingdom of Israel 9th century BCE - 722BCE).

1994 AMIA bombing
Andres, I prefer to do this without a templated notice. It make sit easier to explain and I'm sure you will appreciate. Posting blog links is not allowed per WP:ELNO. You know this as it was mentioned in the edit summary, yet you reinstated the link without posting a comment and a reason. Moreover you have posted images of alleged perpetrators in violation of BLP. Per WP:PERP: "A living person accused of a crime is not guilty unless and until this is decided by a court of law. Editors must give serious consideration to not creating an article on an alleged perpetrator when no conviction is yet secured." This also applies to the images in the link you posted. Regardless of how you or I feel on this subject, the rules must be followed. Please do not revert and reinstate this link without prior discussion here or better yet, in the article's Talk page. Please be aware of avoiding edit warring and 3RR. -- Alexf(talk) 00:59, 8 August 2011 (UTC)

"in Israel" categories
Hello. You have added a number of categories of the form Category:Terrorist incidents in XXXX in Israel to a number of articles. Many of those articles concern locations outside of Israel, such as this, or this, or this.

The Palestinian territories (the West Bank, including East Jerusalem, and the Gaza Strip) are not "in Israel". Please do not re-add the categories to those pages.

If so, could you scan the relevant page and upload it temporarily, so we can see what the text says? I think that we'll need to reconcile the text a bit, since the online source says the Soviet Union spearheaded the resolution and it was passed with Arab and African support (looking at the list of countries voting in favour, it seems a bit off the mark to say that arabs would have caused the resolution to pass based on their votes, since there is a significant African component).

ALA
Hi,
You added the flag of the Iraqi army in the belligerents of the Civil War period in Mandatory Palestine. There were indeed Iraqi volunteers that fought during that time. They were mainly deployed at Jaffa and Haifa. Nevertheless, they were not there as Iraqi soldiers but as Iraqi volunteers serving in the Arab Liberation Army (ALA). The High Commander of the ALA was a retired Iraqi general named Safwat but he was retired as all the volunteers were not members of the Iraqi army.
If you follow your reasonning you can then also add the flag of Great Britain for all sides because a huge number of British volunteers decided not to leave Palestine with troops and stayed to fight for the side of their heart. You could also add the German flag for Arabs and the US and French flags for the Yishuv. This is written in Gelber's book too. The nosense go deeper : as far as Morocco, Algeria and Lybia are concerned, you could add these flags on both side too because Sepharad Jews and Arab volunteers came from there too...

Photo from Hebron
Hi, I really don't think it's a good photo to use: (i) Aesthetically, the photo composition is not good, the soldiers are not even the main focus; (ii) Hebron is a very politically contentious and controversial situation; (iii) the narrative, as portrayed in the photo, looks sinister or is open to a negative interpretation (iv) we already have a photo from Nablus & a photo from a checkpoint; (v)the image is used on 3 other articles.
Of course, wikipedia has to be NPOV and objective, but to use a politically contentious image of occupation in the main IDF article is not fair, since we don't use similar images from Northern Ireland on the main article for the British Army, or for the US Army, etc. If we use policing/occupation photos from Hebron, then, for NPOV, we should surely choose ones which look less aggressive or more neutral for the main article. We also have huge amounts of photos to choose from on the commons, so the space can be better used. Best Avaya1 (talk) 22:36, 26 February 2012 (UTC)

Notice to administrators: In a March 2010 decision, the Committee held that "Administrators are prohibited from reversing or overturning (explicitly or in substance) any action taken by another administrator pursuant to the terms of an active arbitration remedy, and explicitly noted as being taken to enforce said remedy, except: (a) with the written authorization of the Committee, or (b) following a clear, substantial, and active consensus of uninvolved editors at a community discussion noticeboard (such as WP:AN or WP:ANI). If consensus in such discussions is hard to judge or unclear, the parties should submit a request for clarification on the proper page. Any administrator that overturns an enforcement action outside of these circumstances shall be subject to appropriate sanctions, up to and including desysopping, at the discretion of the Committee."
This is a notification; per this AE thread, you are topic banned from all areas falling under the Israeli-Palestinan conflict for 90 days, to start immediately after your block expires. If you have any questions regarding the scope of your ban, please ask me or request a clarification. The Blade of the Northern Lights (話して下さい) 03:21, 29 February 2012 (UTC)
- I have reset your block to expire two weeks from now because you have been evading it by logging out to edit. If you do that again, this block (and the blocks of any IPs you use) will get considerably longer. HJ Mitchell | Penny for your thoughts? 13:27, 12 March 2012 (UTC)
- The difference between a ban and a block is that a ban so more of a social thing, and you're expected to abide by it of your own accord, rather than a technical measure like blocking, which prevents you from editing. You are banned for 90 days from topics to do with Arab-Israeli conflict, but you won't see any message telling you that you can't edit a particular article. You have technically violated your topic ban several times, but I will chalk that up to an honest mistake if it doesn't continue. You're welcome to ask me any questions you might have, but bear in Mind I don't have the power to lift the topic ban myself. HJ Mitchell | Penny for your thoughts? 15:55, 26 March 2012 (UTC)

Re
I'd say yes, those do fall under your ban, except for Mossad. With Mossad, you can edit anything that isn't related to the ARBPIA topic area (if you have any questions about that, I'm happy to clarify). Since you asked me, I'm not going to hold those edits over you because I think there was some gray on a couple of those articles, but make sure to keep it in mind in the future.
