Talk:Yehezkel

Edit warring
hi. I fully accept that Covid has raised the level of aggressiveness and impatience, I see it on myself, but edit warring over a reasonable amendment on a disambiguation page?! For Wik's sake, let's stay real! That being said, please, as a first step: read before editing. Read the Yehezkel Dror Wikipedia articles, the English and the (translated) Hebrew one; read my edit summary; and do read additionally about the topic before going on a crusade.

I have added to the English article, but it already contained quite a bit. Hebrew article:
 * [Dor is a] pioneering author....management, policy science, public administration, capacities to govern, leadership and security issues
 * Wrote for the Club of Rome
 * served as a senior consultant on policy-making and planning for the Israeli government
 * founded the Jewish People Policy Planning Institute
 * senior staff member at the American Rand Corporation.
 * sat on the Winograd Commission (are you familiar with its importance?)

My edit summary:
 * 1) "pensioned": He is not a professor at HUJI, the man is 92 years old and long pensioned
 * 2) "influential: internationally, see Rand Corp. work." Now check the additions, which were only a simple Google search away, and it's more than proven - "one of the most influential scholars in the founding generation of public administration in the world", introduction of the "crazy states" concept, in Israel he contributed the scholarship behind the strengthening of the National Security Council. So very objective criteria, not at all a "subjective opinion". There are people who are indeed influential, and when another leading scholar (i.e. David Levi-Faur) calls them that, it's a quotable fact, not just "subjective opinion".
 * 3) "Israeli - obvious." Why on Earth did you remove this bit? Angry, just quickly do away with whatever others have dared to add?
 * 4) "scholar: at most one can argue for scholar and practitioner, as he worked as consultant, but keeping it short." All is said.

So not an active professor, and teaching was anyway just one of his many outstanding activities, but most certainly influential, and Israeli, and scholar, and of political science (granted, in this order it's better English, mean "scholar of political science" rather than "political science scholar").

I will edit it accordingly. If you feel the need to add something well-sourced and constructive, please do it, preferably after using this talk page. If you choose to simply revert for a third time, since I have no more time to waste on this issue, I will pass it on to an arbitration committee, as they are common for disruptive editing and edit warring. But I am confident that won't be needed. Have a great day, Arminden (talk) 23:35, 18 July 2020 (UTC)
 * , You seem to have very little understanding of the purpose of dab pages and what content they are expected to contain. Being influential is more of an opinion than a verifiable fact. For instance, it is a fact to say that "David Levi-Faur stated X about the subject" (although certainly not appropriate for dab page), but may breach WP:NPOV or not be appropriate to restate X in wikivoice. Furthermore, dab page is just supposed to be for minimal identification, and being called influential isn't very helpful to identification. Feel free to take this to any noticeboard of your choice.
