Copyright concerns[edit]

Following up on this ANI report of copyright concerns, I popped in on this article at random. This is the first passage I checked:

Night w Source
No one claimed responsibility for the attack, but newspapers reported that the perpetrators were believed to be militant Jewish settlers.[4] Residents claimed that settlers had also attacked the village in the past, refering to an extremist group amongst the settlers who had previously announced a "price tag" policy whereby Palestinians and their property would be targeted in response to every measure by the Israeli authorities to dismantle settler buildings [1] No one claimed responsibility but it is believed that militant Jewish settlers carried out the mosque attack. Residents claimed that settlers had also attacked the village in the past. A few years ago extremist fringe elements amongst the settlers, dubbed the “hilltop youth”, announced a “price tag” policy, whereby Palestinians and Palestinian property would be targeted in response to every move by the Israeli authorities to dismantle settler buildings.[2]

I do not know how extensive problems may be or if there are other problems in the article, but given this passage and the evident history, additional evaluation is needed as well as rewriting in these passages and any others that may similarly follow so closely on their sources. The article is being blanked to prevent display of copyright problems pending investigation. If a WP:CCI is opened, particularly, it may be deleted after a week if alternative text is not proposed in the temporary space now linked from the article's face. --Moonriddengirl (talk) 10:51, 2 November 2011 (UTC)[reply]

Al-Nurayn Mosque2011 Al-Nurayn Mosque attack – This article seems either mislabelled, or possible it was created as one thing and became another. As it stands, 90% of the material is on the 2011 arson attack, not the mosque itself. Even if there are sources that would support an article on the mosque, it would seem to make sense to rename and rescope this particular page (and the material it currently contains) to solely and clearly reflect the attack from start to finish, and, if someone wants recreate a new article on the mosque in the future (and they can find sufficient sourcing to create a body of content on the building), they can do so at the redirect.

  • Support – I don't see why it shouldn't be renamed. 92% of the article is about the 2011 attack. Kakebiten (talk) 17:37, 29 July 2022 (UTC)[reply]
  • Against It should be kept under its current name, to moved is stupid. Catfurball (talk) 21:16, 29 July 2022 (UTC)[reply]
