You missed some articles.
editYou missed Zionist terrorism and Israeli terrorism. Jayjg (talk) 8 July 2005 19:03 (UTC)
Consistency, NPOV and 3RR
edit- You seem to misunderstand NPOV policy. If a spokesman said "terrorism", you cannot simply change the text to "violence".
- When you change [1] Palestinian terrorism to Palestinian violence (even though most of the violence is deliberate murder of civilians) but add [2] RC's death as Israeli terrorism, (even though they claim it was an accident) you show double standard. What's your criteria: race or religion?
- You may be banned for breaking 3RR. ←Humus sapiens←Talk 07:55, 13 July 2005 (UTC)
- I believe you once accumulated seven revisions within a three hour period on a Pal/Isr article, HS. Be reasonable. Jeus 16:11, 13 July 2005 (UTC)
A trick to watch out for is "cluster reverts" where a couple of the (very) like minded POV pushers serially revert your changes (each staying below 3 reverts) and then if you alter their reverts squeal "3RR rule". Its silly but you just have to laugh a little at the effort they are expending, take a days rest then revert back. Play by the letter of the rules - just like they do. 62.253.64.14 22:44, 13 July 2005 (UTC)
Honestly - there is a little group that seem to push (very) pro Israel POV in the face of all reason. Dont let it pee you off. Just play within the rules - smile and chiop away with reasoned arguement and quality posts. 62.253.64.14 23:29, 13 July 2005 (UTC)
3RR warning
editHi Joey, you're either about to, or have already, violated the three-revert rule at Rachel Corrie. It's best to try to gain consensus for your edits on talk. If you continue reverting, or if you violate 3RR again elsewhere, you may be blocked from editing without further warning. Cheers, SlimVirgin (talk) 20:40, July 13, 2005 (UTC)
- No, usually it's fine just to go ahead and edit. But where you find yourself getting involved in multiple reverts, it's best to stop, take a break, then try to find a compromise on the talk page. In this case, I restored the sentence you deleted, but I deleted Palestinian terror and just replaced it with the Palestinians. I think saying Palestinian terror or violence would perhaps be more accurate, because it wasn't the Palestinians per se who were being blamed, but Palestinian violence looked a bit odd for some reason, and terror had been objected to. If you'd prefer violence, I'd have no objection myself.
- This article was at the center of a long-running dispute, which is why editors are a bit jumpy about it. SlimVirgin (talk) 20:55, July 13, 2005 (UTC)
You have been warned numerous times that your edits are pov propaganda. If you cannot abide by the rules you will be reverted, and very soon banned from editing at all.

- Hi Joey, I haven't looked at the edits yet, but I'd say the photograph is POV, and it would be a gesture of goodwill to remove it. I know it's a powerful photograph and it's good to have pages well-illustrated, so I understand why you want it, but it's a difficult photograph to use in a way that's definitely fair and neutral. I'll take a look at the other edits shortly. SlimVirgin (talk) 23:27, July 13, 2005 (UTC)
Image:Elwan.jpg
editHi. When uploading images, you should always add your source and a clarification of the use terms (fair use, own photo, etc.); otherwise, people will probably object on copyright grounds sooner or later. Since it's on IfD, it would be particularly good to take care of this for Elwan.jpg sometime soon. - Mustafaa 00:42, 14 July 2005 (UTC)
- Thanks. Ideally you should also pick an appropriate tag from Wikipedia:Image copyright tags and put it on the image; it's not clear to me whether this constitutes fair use or not (I'm not too familiar with press copyright issues), but that's your call. - Mustafaa 00:54, 14 July 2005 (UTC)
- Sorry, but GFDL is intended for images that you own the rights to, or that no one owns. To add that to this image, you would have to contact its original source and get their permission to release it under this license (unless you were the photographer.) Fair use is more probable. - Mustafaa 01:09, 14 July 2005 (UTC)
Hey, keep editing the israeli terror article good job. Ill help. --Doge120 15:14, 14 July 2005 (UTC)
Sockpuppetry
editI've blocked you for 24 hours for abusive and deceptive sockpuppetry - please read Wikipedia:Sock puppet. I've also blocked all the sock accounts I could find. Please don't do this sort of thing again - David Gerard 09:27, 19 July 2005 (UTC)
Image:100656863.jpeg listed for deletion
editAn image or media file that you uploaded or altered, Image:100656863.jpeg, has been listed at Wikipedia:Images and media for deletion.

Orphaned fair use image (Image:Ten01.jpg)
editThanks for uploading Image:Ten01.jpg. The image description page currently specifies that the image is non-free and may only be used on Wikipedia under a claim of fair use. However, the image is currently orphaned, meaning that it is not used in any articles on Wikipedia. If the image was previously in an article, please go to the article and see why it was removed. You may add it back if you think that that will be useful. However, please note that images for which a replacement could be created are not acceptable under fair use (see our fair use policy).
If you have uploaded other unlicensed media, please check whether they're used in any articles or not. You can find a list of 'image' pages you have edited by clicking on the "my contributions" link (it is located at the very top of any Wikipedia page when you are logged in), and then selecting "Image" from the dropdown box. Note that any fair use images not used in any articles will be deleted after seven days, as described on criteria for speedy deletion. Thank you.

Image source problem with Image:Hurndal.jpg
editThanks for uploading Image:Hurndal.jpg. I noticed that the file's description page currently doesn't specify who created the content, so the copyright status is unclear. If you did not create this file yourself, you will need to specify the owner of the copyright. If you obtained it from a website, then a link to the website from which it was taken, together with a restatement of that website's terms of use of its content, is usually sufficient information. However, if the copyright holder is different from the website's publisher, their copyright should also be acknowledged.
As well as adding the source, please add a proper copyright licensing tag if the file doesn't have one already. If you created/took the picture, audio, or video then the {{GFDL-self}} tag can be used to release it under the GFDL. If you believe the media meets the criteria at Wikipedia:Non-free content, use a tag such as {{non-free fair use in|article name}} or one of the other tags listed at Wikipedia:Image copyright tags#Fair use. See Wikipedia:Image copyright tags for the full list of copyright tags that you can use.
If you have uploaded other files, consider checking that you have specified their source and tagged them, too. You can find a list of files you have uploaded by following this link. Unsourced and untagged images may be deleted one week after they have been tagged, as described on criteria for speedy deletion. If the image is copyrighted under a non-free license (per Wikipedia:Fair use) then the image will be deleted 48 hours after 07:27, 22 December 2007 (UTC). If you have any questions please ask them at the Media copyright questions page. Thank you. —Remember the dot (talk) 07:27, 22 December 2007 (UTC)
