  Please do not delete content from pages on Wikipedia, as you did to Israel Defense Forces, without explaining the reason for the removal in the edit summary. Unexplained removal of content does not appear constructive, and your edit has been reverted. If you would like to experiment, please use the sandbox for test edits.

Welcome

edit

Welcome!

Hello, Star-of-David92, and welcome to Wikipedia! Thank you for your contributions. I hope you like the place and decide to stay. Here are some pages that you might find helpful:

I hope you enjoy editing here and being a Wikipedian! Please sign your messages on discussion pages using four tildes (~~~~); this will automatically insert your username and the date. If you need help, check out Wikipedia:Questions, ask me on my talk page, or ask your question on this page and then place {{helpme}} before the question. Again, welcome!

Please also note that wikipedia has certain editing rules such as WP:3RR and also rules about what is proper and improper in editing. If you believe certain material should be removed and your belief is contested, you must discuss on the article's talk page -- remember to remain WP:CIV and avoid making WP:NPA... even if other editors don't always stick to these rules.

Copyvio

  Please do not add copyrighted material to Wikipedia without permission from the copyright holder, as you did to Lahav 433. For legal reasons, we cannot accept copyrighted text or images borrowed from other web sites or printed material; such additions will be deleted. You may use external websites as a source of information, but not as a source of sentences. Wikipedia takes copyright violations very seriously, and persistent violators will be blocked from editing. The material you added came from this article on Ynet. -- Ynhockey (Talk) 22:15, 24 February 2008 (UTC)Reply

The city of peace

edit
 

A tag has been placed on The city of peace, requesting that it be speedily deleted from Wikipedia. This has been done under the criteria for speedy deletion, because it is a very short article providing little or no context to the reader. Please see Wikipedia:Stub for our minimum information standards for short articles. Also please note that articles must be on notable subjects and should provide references to reliable sources that verify their content.

Please do not remove the speedy deletion tag yourself. If you plan to expand the article, you can request that administrators wait a while for you to add contextual material. To do this, affix the template {{hangon}} to the article and state your intention on the article's talk page. Feel free to leave a note on my talk page if you have any questions about this.

The city of peace

edit
 

A proposed deletion template has been added to the article The city of peace, suggesting that it be deleted according to the proposed deletion process. All contributions are appreciated, but this article may not satisfy Wikipedia's criteria for inclusion, and the deletion notice should explain why (see also "What Wikipedia is not" and Wikipedia's deletion policy). You may prevent the proposed deletion by removing the {{dated prod}} notice, but please explain why you disagree with the proposed deletion in your edit summary or on its talk page. Also, please consider improving the article to address the issues raised. Even though removing the deletion notice will prevent deletion through the proposed deletion process, the article may still be deleted if it matches any of the speedy deletion criteria or it can be sent to Articles for Deletion, where it may be deleted if consensus to delete is reached. If you agree with the deletion of the article, and you are the only person who has made substantial edits to the page, please add {{db-author}} to the top of The city of peace.

AfD nomination of Dov Soll

edit
 

An article that you have been involved in editing, Dov Soll, has been listed for deletion. If you are interested in the deletion discussion, please participate by adding your comments at Wikipedia:Articles for deletion/Dov Soll. Thank you. Visor (talk) 10:40, 19 March 2008 (UTC)Reply

In reference to your message [1] at Wikipedia:Articles for deletion/Dov Soll, please note that as per Wikipedia's official policy No original research, direct, personal experience is not permitted. Additionally the guideline on Notability states that we should only have articles on individuals if their notability is sourced and cited to reliable, third-party, published sources. Also Biographies of living persons must be written with the greatest care and attention to verifiability, neutrality and avoiding original research. --Kralizec! (talk) 20:05, 21 March 2008 (UTC)Reply
For further questions, do not use "Articles for deletion" pages. For that you can use any user talk page, for example my talk page (nominator talk page), Pegasus (who have decided to delete article) or any other experienced user or administrator talk page.

Dov Soll - Candidate for speedy deletion

edit
 

A tag has been placed on Dov Soll requesting that it be speedily deleted from Wikipedia. This has been done because the article appears to be about a real person, organization (band, club, company, etc.), or web content, but it does not indicate how or why the subject is notable: that is, why an article about that subject should be included in an encyclopedia. Under the criteria for speedy deletion, articles that do not indicate the subject's importance or significance may be deleted at any time. Please see the guidelines for what is generally accepted as notable. If this is the first page that you have created, then you should read the guide to writing your first article.

If you think that you can assert the notability of the subject, you may contest the deletion by adding {{hangon}} to the top of the page (just below the existing speedy deletion or "db" tag), coupled with adding a note on the article's talk page explaining your position, but be aware that once tagged for speedy deletion, if the article meets the criterion it may be deleted without delay. Please do not remove the speedy deletion tag yourself, but don't hesitate to add information to the article that would confirm the subject's notability under Wikipedia guidelines.

For guidelines on specific types of articles, you may want to check out our criteria for biographies, for web sites, for bands, or for companies. Feel free to leave a note on my talk page if you have any questions about this. Visor (talk) 18:59, 21 March 2008 (UTC)Reply

March 2008

edit
 

A tag has been placed on Dov Soll, requesting that it be speedily deleted from Wikipedia. This has been done because the article appears to be a repost of material that was previously deleted following a deletion debate, such as articles for deletion. If you can indicate how Dov Soll is different from the previously posted material, or if you can indicate why this article should not be deleted, I advise you to place the template {{hangon}} underneath the other template on the article, and also put a note on Talk:Dov Soll saying why this article should stay. An admin should check for such edits before deleting the article. Feel free to leave a note on my talk page if you have any questions about this. Please read our criteria for speedy deletion, particularly item 4 under General criteria. If you believe the original discussion was unjustified, please feel free to use deletion review, but do not continue to repost the article if it is deleted. Please do not remove the speedy deletion tag yourself. We welcome your help in trying to improve Wikipedia, and we request you to follow these instructions. Visor (talk) 23:19, 28 March 2008 (UTC)Reply

The article differs from its deleted version by listing three web-sites as references. However, none of those three references mention the topic in question. Lklundin (talk) 23:30, 28 March 2008 (UTC)Reply

  Please do not introduce incorrect information into articles, as you did to Proposals for a Palestinian state. Your edits appear to be vandalism and have been reverted.

If you would like to experiment, use the sandbox. Thank you. Do not edit cited material. The material you changed is not what the cite says and it is not permissible to changed citations. ناهد/(Nåhed) speak! 02:32, 23 October 2008 (UTC)Reply

Speedy deletion of Hadassah Academic College

edit
 

A tag has been placed on Hadassah Academic College requesting that it be speedily deleted from Wikipedia. This has been done under section G12 of the criteria for speedy deletion, because the article appears to be a blatant copyright infringement. For legal reasons, we cannot accept copyrighted text or images borrowed from other web sites or printed material, and as a consequence, your addition will most likely be deleted. You may use external websites as a source of information, but not as a source of sentences. This part is crucial: say it in your own words.

If the external website belongs to you, and you want to allow Wikipedia to use the text — which means allowing other people to modify it — then you must include on the external site the statement "I, (name), am the author of this article, (article name), and I release its content under the terms of the GNU Free Documentation License, Version 1.2 and later." You might want to look at Wikipedia's policies and guidelines for more details, or ask a question here.

  Welcome to Wikipedia. Although everyone is welcome to contribute constructively to the encyclopedia, adding content without citing a reliable source, as you did to Israel, is not consistent with our policy of verifiability. Take a look at the welcome page to learn more about contributing to this encyclopedia. If you are familiar with Wikipedia:Citing sources, please take this opportunity to add references to the article. Thank you. Nudve (talk) 04:42, 24 October 2008 (UTC)Reply
