Wikipedia and copyright
Hello 238-Gdn, and welcome to Wikipedia. All or some of your addition(s) to Moshe Zvi Segal (Rabbi) have been removed, as it appears to have added copyrighted material without evidence of permission from the copyright holder. While we appreciate your contributing to Wikipedia, there are certain things you must keep in mind about using information from your sources to avoid copyright or plagiarism issues here.


 * You can only copy/translate a small amount of a source, and you must mark what you take as a direct quotation with double quotation marks (") and cite the source using an inline citation. You can read about this at Non-free content in the sections on "text". See also Help:Referencing for beginners, for how to cite sources here.
 * Aside from limited quotation, you must put all information in your own words and structure, in proper paraphrase. Following the source's words too closely can create copyright problems, so it is not permitted here; see Close paraphrasing. (There is a college-level introduction to paraphrase, with examples, hosted by the Online Writing Lab of Purdue.) Even when using your own words, you are still, however, asked to cite your sources to verify information and to demonstrate that the content is not original research.
 * Our primary policy on using copyrighted content is Copyrights. You may also want to review Copy-paste.
 * If you own the copyright to the source you want to copy or are a designated agent, you may be able to license that text so that we can publish it here. However, there are steps that must be taken to verify that license before you do. See Donating copyrighted materials.
 * In very rare cases (that is, for sources that are public domain or compatibly licensed), it may be possible to include greater portions of a source text. However, please seek help at the help desk before adding such content to the article. 99.9% of sources may not be added in this way, so it is necessary to seek confirmation first. If you do confirm that a source is public domain or compatibly licensed, you will still need to provide full attribution; see Plagiarism for the steps you need to follow.
 * Also note that Wikipedia articles may not be copied or translated without attribution. If you want to copy or translate from another Wikipedia project or article, you can, but please follow the steps in Copying within Wikipedia.

It's very important that contributors understand and follow these practices, as policy requires that people who persistently do not must be blocked from editing. If you have any questions about this, you are welcome to leave me a message on my talk page. Thank you.  CAPTAIN RAJU  (✉)   20:36, 24 March 2017 (UTC)

Your addition to Moshe Zvi Segal (Rabbi) has been removed, as it appears to have added copyrighted material to Wikipedia without evidence of permission from the copyright holder. If you are the copyright holder, please read Donating copyrighted materials for more information on uploading your material to Wikipedia. For legal reasons, Wikipedia cannot accept copyrighted material, including text or images from print publications or from other websites, without an appropriate and verifiable license. All such contributions will be deleted. You may use external websites or publications as a source of information, but not as a source of content, such as sentences or images&mdash;you must write using your own words.

Ginzburgh
You'll need to self-revert that last edit. Israel/Palestine material is subject to a WP:1RR rule. Your second removal of that material is in violation of that rule. If necessary, you can end up at arbitration enforcement. Nomoskedasticity (talk) 15:33, 29 March 2017 (UTC)
 * Come to think of it, you're prohibited from editing material related to the Israel/Palestine conflict at all -- new editors may not edit in this area until they have met both of two conditions: 30 days have passed since first edit, and 500 edits have been made. See .  Nomoskedasticity (talk) 15:40, 29 March 2017 (UTC)


 * In the context of Ginsburgh, the incident in Kifl Haris has about as much to do with the Israel/Palestine conflict as a porcupine in a garden of prickly pears... 238-Gdn (talk) 16:43, 29 March 2017 (UTC)

Speedy deletion nomination of Eliezer (Eduardo) Zeiger


A tag has been placed on Eliezer (Eduardo) Zeiger requesting that it be speedily deleted from Wikipedia. This has been done under section G12 of the criteria for speedy deletion, because the page appears to be an unambiguous copyright infringement. This page appears to be a direct copy from http://www.torahscience.org/zeiger.html. 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 or other printed material as a source of information, but not as a source of sentences. This part is crucial: say it in your own words. Wikipedia takes copyright violations very seriously and persistent violators will be blocked from editing.

If the external website or image belongs to you, and you want to allow Wikipedia to use the text or image — which means allowing other people to modify it — then you must verify that externally by one of the processes explained at Donating copyrighted materials. If you are not the owner of the external website or image but have permission from that owner, see Requesting copyright permission. You might want to look at Wikipedia's policies and guidelines for more details, or ask a question here.

If you think this page should not be deleted for this reason, you may contest the nomination by visiting the page and clicking the button labelled "Contest this speedy deletion". This will give you the opportunity to explain why you believe the page should not be deleted. However, be aware that once a page is tagged for speedy deletion, it may be removed without delay. Please do not remove the speedy deletion tag from the page yourself, but do not hesitate to add information in line with Wikipedia's policies and guidelines. Adem20talk 13:40, 3 April 2017 (UTC)

Small question
Why did you delete "Many of his students and followers were formerly associated with the ideology of religious Zionism." User:Debresser|Debresser]] (talk) 20:24, 3 April 2017 (UTC)
 * It became redundant, considering that immediately following is the sentence: "His students include Charedim, religious Zionists, and Chabad Chassidim, as well as ba'alei teshuvah." Thanks for standing up for me.238-Gdn (talk) 21:01, 3 April 2017 (UTC)

Even if you right.
I suggest that you will self-revert to be on the safe side.--Shrike (talk) 12:46, 4 April 2017 (UTC)
 * Please explain.238-Gdn (talk) 13:06, 4 April 2017 (UTC)
 * Becouse you can be blocked.Its not worth it to tarnish your record.--Shrike (talk) 13:32, 4 April 2017 (UTC)
 * נראה לך שהם יחסמו אותי בפעם הראשונה? מה ההבדל אם החזרתי את הגרסה הקודמת או לא?238-Gdn (talk) 15:05, 4 April 2017 (UTC)
 * Yes, you can get blocked on a "first offence" -- especially given that you've chosen to disregard all the advice and warnings. If you self-revert, it could show that you're starting to take it on board.  Nomoskedasticity (talk) 15:28, 4 April 2017 (UTC)
 * הם כן יחסמו אותך ואני מציע לך כן להחזיר את הגירסה לפני עריכה שלך כך תראה שאתה מתכוון להשמע לכללים שכנראה כן הפרת--Shrike (talk) 15:30, 4 April 2017 (UTC)
 * Please revert you edit at whole i.e return to Nomoskedasticity version--Shrike (talk) 18:32, 4 April 2017 (UTC)

AE result
Please note the warning here. Future violations of the 1RR restriction in the Arab-Israeli conflict topic area or the general prohibition will result in an arbitration enforcement block. Pay special attention to the wording of the general prohibition. Until you have 500 edits (earned through normal editing, not arbitrary inflation of edit count, just to be clear), you are not able to edit in the topic area of the Arab-Israeli conflict. This includes any page that could be reasonably construed as belonging to the topic area, and it seems clear that Yitzchak Ginsburgh is reasonably construed as a part of the topic area given the contents of the "Religious and political views" section. ~ Rob 13 Talk 05:40, 5 April 2017 (UTC)


 * Our messages crossed. I just completed a clarification note there. Does this mean that I can't edit the religious and political views section for the time being, or does it refer to the entire article? 238-Gdn (talk) 06:30, 5 April 2017 (UTC)

(I now see that my note was too late and missed being published there. Still, I would appreciate an answer to the question above.)238-Gdn (talk) 06:47, 5 April 2017 (UTC)
 * This is worth noting -- edits already made to Ginsburgh don't count towards meeting the requirement of 500 edits. Nomoskedasticity (talk) 06:53, 5 April 2017 (UTC)


 * Two things. First, the prohibition refers to any page in the Arab-Israeli conflict topic area, not any edit, so you may not edit any aspect of a page that has substantial content related to the Arab-Israeli conflict topic area. Second, there is no clear consensus or guidance from the Arbitration Committee that edits made in the topic area do not count toward 500/30 (although repeated edits in the topic area after warnings will likely result in blocks and cause the community to yank the extendedconfirmed user right). Extendedconfirmed is automatically granted after 500 total edits and 30 days on the site, and once you have that user right, you can edit within the topic area. If you think this should be otherwise,, take it to WP:ARCA. ~ Rob 13 Talk 16:32, 5 April 2017 (UTC)
 * If needs be, then okay -- but it's what WScribe proposed, and then several admins subsequently commented "agree with WScribe". Nomoskedasticity (talk) 18:27, 5 April 2017 (UTC)
 * The problem is that the software will literally automatically grant him extendedconfirmed (and therefore the ability to edit these pages) at 500 edits. We can't turn that off. We can remove it after-the-fact, but that should be preventative, not punative, and I'm not going to impose a sanction that will activate mindlessly in the future. Keep in mind that any uninvolved administrator (myself included) could impose a topic ban if necessary under discretionary sanctions, were disruption to continue after he were extendedconfirmed. I certainly hope it does not, though! ~ Rob 13 Talk 22:34, 5 April 2017 (UTC)
 * I think this new editor is making a huge effort to be a good editor. He is getting up to speed nicely regarding Wikipedia policies and guidelines.
 * I really don't think I like the undertone of the last two posts here. 500/30 does not exist to close off all IP-related articles to new editors indefinitely. It is in place precisely to allow new editors to learn how to be a good editor before they make edits in a sensitive area. Talk above as though somebody will be waiting for them to make a mistake, goes contrary to that idea and the spirit of Wikipedia. Debresser (talk) 23:10, 5 April 2017 (UTC)
 * Just a final clarification - I presume that this point does not apply to talk pages on the subject matter?238-Gdn (talk) 05:52, 6 April 2017 (UTC)
 * Correct, you can discuss changes on talk pages. ~ Rob 13 Talk 11:25, 6 April 2017 (UTC)

Question
Regarding this edit. Was yesterday your 60th birthday? :) Debresser (talk) 19:33, 5 April 2017 (UTC)
 * LOL! No, but I thought people might interpret it that way. Actually, I took offense to the plus sign...238-Gdn (talk) 05:53, 6 April 2017 (UTC)

Happy Pesach!
Just a note to say that due to the Pesach holiday, I won't be editing Wikipedia for the next week or so. Wishing everyone a happy Pesach! 238-Gdn (talk) 05:15, 10 April 2017 (UTC)

Proposed deletion of Asher Crispe


The article Asher Crispe has been proposed for deletion&#32;because of the following concern: "Non-notable individual, insufficient independent sources thus notability is lacking"

While all constructive contributions to Wikipedia are appreciated, pages may be deleted for any of several reasons.

You may prevent the proposed deletion by removing the notice, but please explain why in your edit summary or on the article's talk page.

Please consider improving the page to address the issues raised. Removing will stop the proposed deletion process, but other deletion processes exist. In particular, the speedy deletion process can result in deletion without discussion, and articles for deletion allows discussion to reach consensus for deletion. Nomoskedasticity (talk) 16:59, 22 June 2017 (UTC)

Nomination of Asher Crispe for deletion
A discussion is taking place as to whether the article Asher Crispe is suitable for inclusion in Wikipedia according to Wikipedia's policies and guidelines or whether it should be deleted.

The article will be discussed at Articles for deletion/Asher Crispe until a consensus is reached, and anyone is welcome to contribute to the discussion. The nomination will explain the policies and guidelines which are of concern. The discussion focuses on high-quality evidence and our policies and guidelines.

Users may edit the article during the discussion, including to improve the article to address concerns raised in the discussion. However, do not remove the article-for-deletion notice from the top of the article. Nomoskedasticity (talk) 05:33, 23 June 2017 (UTC)

June 2017
Your recent editing history at Asher Crispe shows that you are currently engaged in an edit war. To resolve the content dispute, please do not revert or change the edits of others when you are reverted. Instead of reverting, please use the talk page to work toward making a version that represents consensus among editors. The best practice at this stage is to discuss, not edit-war. See BRD for how this is done. If discussions reach an impasse, you can then post a request for help at a relevant noticeboard or seek dispute resolution. In some cases, you may wish to request temporary page protection.

Being involved in an edit war can result in your being blocked from editing&mdash;especially if you violate the three-revert rule, which states that an editor must not perform more than three reverts on a single page within a 24-hour period. Undoing another editor's work—whether in whole or in part, whether involving the same or different material each time—counts as a revert. Also keep in mind that while violating the three-revert rule often leads to a block, you can still be blocked for edit warring&mdash;even if you don't violate the three-revert rule&mdash;should your behavior indicate that you intend to continue reverting repeatedly.''This is your final warning. Further copyright violations will result in you being blocked from editing. '' — Diannaa 🍁 (talk) 16:50, 23 June 2017 (UTC)


 * How did you come to the conclusion that I am edit warring? I have not reverted a single edit on that page... Be good! 238-Gdn (talk) 20:24, 24 June 2017 (UTC)
 * Oops, this was a mistake. The correct warning is as follows:
 * Some of the content you added to the article Asher Crispe appears to have been copied from the copyright web page http://www.purposebalancelife.com/quantum-healing-and-soul.html. Copying text directly from a source is a copyright violation. Unfortunately, for copyright reasons, the content had to be removed. You have already received several warnings for copyright violations, so please take the time to review our copyright policy before you resume editing. This is your final warning. — Diannaa 🍁 (talk) 20:38, 24 June 2017 (UTC)


 * Still not sure what you are referring to, but some of the history of that page has been deleted, so I can't check it out. Can you be more specific? As far as I recall, I only included a sentence or two from that site and I rendered them differently from the original, so there shouldn't have been a problem. If there was, there is usually some type of bot that checks these things and notifies, and none did that. Be good! 238-Gdn (talk) 08:14, 25 June 2017 (UTC)
 * Your addition was flagged by a bot as a potential copyright violation and was assessed by myself. Here is a link to the bot report. Click on the iThenticate link to view the overlap. Small copyright violations are not okay – content has to be written in your own words and not inclusive of the source material at all. Everything you add to this wiki needs to be written in your own words. — Diannaa 🍁 (talk) 11:35, 25 June 2017 (UTC)


 * O.K. thanks for dealing with it. Will try to be even more careful in the future.238-Gdn (talk) 13:58, 25 June 2017 (UTC)

Speedy deletion nomination of Yehoshua Shapira


A tag has been placed on Yehoshua Shapira requesting that it be speedily deleted from Wikipedia. This has been done under section A7 of the criteria for speedy deletion, because the article appears to be about a real person or group of people, but it does not credibly indicate how or why the subject is important or significant: that is, why an article about that subject should be included in an encyclopedia. Under the criteria for speedy deletion, such articles may be deleted at any time. Please read more about what is generally accepted as notable.

If you think this page should not be deleted for this reason, you may contest the nomination by visiting the page and clicking the button labelled "Contest this speedy deletion". This will give you the opportunity to explain why you believe the page should not be deleted. However, be aware that once a page is tagged for speedy deletion, it may be removed without delay. Please do not remove the speedy deletion tag from the page yourself, but do not hesitate to add information in line with Wikipedia's policies and guidelines.

Request for Arbitration Special:Permalink/787496681 Closed
In response to your request for arbitration of this issue, the Arbitration Committee has agreed that arbitration is not required at this stage. Arbitration on Wikipedia is a lengthy, complicated process that involves the unilateral adjudication of a dispute by an elected committee. Although the Committee's decisions can be useful to certain disputes, in many cases the actual process of arbitration is unenjoyable and time-consuming. Moreover, for most disputes the community maintains an effective set of mechanisms for reaching a compromise or resolving a grievance.

Disputes among editors regarding the content of an article should use structured discussion on the talk page between the disputing editors. However, requests for comment, third opinions and other venues are available if discussion alone does not yield a consensus. The dispute resolution noticeboard exists as a first point of call for disputes that are not resolved by discussion, and the Mediation Committee provides formal mediation for advanced content disputes.

In all cases, you should review Dispute resolution to learn more about resolving disputes on Wikipedia. The English Wikipedia community has many venues for resolving disputes and grievances, and it is important to explore them instead of requesting arbitration in the first instance. For more information on the process of arbitration, please see the Arbitration Policy and the Guide to Arbitration. I hope this advice is useful, and please do not hesitate to contact a member of the community if you have more questions. GoldenRing (talk) 19:38, 25 June 2017 (UTC)

Ways to improve Eliezer (Eduardo) Zeiger
Hi, I'm Nick Moyes. 238-Gdn, thanks for creating Eliezer (Eduardo) Zeiger!

I've just tagged the page, using our page curation tools, as having some issues to fix. Please see the notability criteria for academics (WP:NACADEMICS) and see if you can find anything to support this article's retention, should it get challenged. If he published a major textbook, where is the reference to it?

The tags can be removed by you or another editor once the issues they mention are addressed. If you have questions, you can leave a comment on my talk page. Or, for more editing help, talk to the volunteers at the Teahouse.
