Articles for deletion/Djabrail Chahkiev
Hello @Alaexis! When you have time, please take a look at this discussion about the deletion of article about a prominent Ingush historian and archeologist Djabrail Chahkiev. Best regards, WikiEditor123… 17:51, 11 January 2024 (UTC)


 * Hi @WikiEditor1234567123, I don't have a lot of time now but I've left a comment. Alaexis¿question? 20:48, 11 January 2024 (UTC)

Question from CorsicanTranslate (12:27, 23 January 2024)
Hello, I've signed up because I'm looking to gain experience in translating documents. I can translate into several different languages. I would like to know how to get started and have my translations read by the moderators. --CorsicanTranslate (talk) 12:27, 23 January 2024 (UTC)


 * Hi, @CorsicanTranslate, possibly the best place to start is Pages needing translation into English or WikiProject Intertranswiki. If you're going to improve existing articles, go ahead and do it, happy to review it or answer questions (even though there is no such thing as a moderator on Wikipedia). If you'd like to create new articles, it's better to start in draftspace - please review Help:Your first article. Alaexis¿question? 12:40, 23 January 2024 (UTC)

Request
Would you please forward a copy of the email you describe here to the Arbitration Committee? They may be able to get an answer to your question (to some extent) by looking at some of the technical logs. — Red-tailed hawk  (nest) 03:51, 25 January 2024 (UTC)


 * Done. Alaexis¿question? 07:56, 25 January 2024 (UTC)

Abasgoi
Hi Alaexis, your edit here hit one of my interest points so I read the relevant parts of the source straight away. Despite these personal preferences, per the recent talkpage note would you consider adding it to the more dedicated History of Abkhazia article instead? You might also want to add to Abasgoi. Best, CMD (talk) 09:01, 26 January 2024 (UTC)


 * Yes, definitely. I've just added it to the History article, I got distracted after my first edit. Alaexis¿question? 12:53, 26 January 2024 (UTC)

Question from GreyKing001 (19:13, 29 January 2024)
Hello How do I really start editing on Wikipedia?? --GreyKing001 (talk) 19:13, 29 January 2024 (UTC)


 * @GreyKing001, by clicking/tapping "Edit" or the pencil icon, depending on your device. Help:Introduction might help. Alaexis¿question? 09:07, 30 January 2024 (UTC)

Question from IncandescentBliss (01:02, 31 January 2024)
Hi there! I’ve been having a lot of my research-based edits reverted by a user (Potatín5) who seems to have almost been banned a year ago according to their talk page. What can I do about this? Thank you for your time! --IncandescentBliss (talk) 01:02, 31 January 2024 (UTC)


 * Hi, @IncandescentBliss. It looks like a content dispute and I see that you've already initiated a discussion with that user, which is great! Unfortunately I'm not qualified to comment on the subject matter. Your sources seem to be fine, but I have no idea whether this is the new scholarly consensus or a fringe view. If you feel that the discussion is going nowhere, I would suggest seeking outside input, for example at WP:Wikiproject Israel or WP:Wikiproject Bible or by initiating a WP:RFC. Alaexis¿question? 21:10, 31 January 2024 (UTC)
 * Thank you! I know about the Bible project but not the Israel. That’s helpful. It’s been frustrating because this seems to be one of the only active editors in some pages I’ve been editing. And they have pretty extreme views (which led to them being on restriction at Israel-Palestine pages.) It seems they’ve migrated their revisionism from Israel-Palestine pages to pages that are merely adjacent to the topic. Is there a way to request that some pages are officially in that topic. The user still seems to be able to edit pages like Solomon and Josiah which should be included in the Israel-Palestine editing restriction I believe. IncandescentBliss (talk) 21:16, 31 January 2024 (UTC)
 * Today he reverted the work I did on the lede to Ten Commandments even after I quoted exclusively from his preferred source. IncandescentBliss (talk) 22:03, 31 January 2024 (UTC)

About your response to "Extended-confirmed-protected edit request on 1 February 2024" on Talk:Israel–Hamas war hostage crisis
You forgot to change the Answered parameter to yes. I went ahead and changed it for you. Make sure when you answer an edit request, to change the answered parameter from answered=no to answered=yes. If you don't change it to yes, it stays on Category:Wikipedia extended-confirmed-protected edit requests. Shadow311 (talk) 16:41, 1 February 2024 (UTC)


 * Sorry, will do next time! Alaexis¿question? 21:47, 1 February 2024 (UTC)

Article notability
Does an article like this Al-Maghazi UNRWA school airstrike have enough coverage to really need its own article? 80.217.100.31 (talk) 21:05, 1 February 2024 (UTC)


 * Apologies for the delayed response. It looks like there are a few sources dealing with this incident, so it's not an automatic "No." Do you have any specific concerns, especially ones related to Notability? Alaexis¿question? 13:59, 3 February 2024 (UTC)
 * I was just wondering how much a coverage a article needs in news. This article for example only directly sources from un and unrwa, and two short articles from Reuters, that only repeat what unrwa said on twitter. Also a liveblog from times of Israel that shortly references what the statement from the head of URWWA. 80.217.100.31 (talk) 23:09, 3 February 2024 (UTC)
 * If you believe it doesn't satisfy the notability criteria, feel free to nominate it for deletion (or merging into another article) here. Alaexis¿question? 13:27, 4 February 2024 (UTC)

Question from Adeyyy (10:04, 3 February 2024)
This is all so confusing! How can I create a wikipedia article? Can you please send me a neat step by step message on how to do it? (Dont include warnings and stuff, I already read that.)

I mean like this

1, go to the ___ page

2, click on the ____- and _______

 * Go to Article_wizard/CreateDraft, click on "Create new article draft" and once you're happy with it, click on Publish. Lmk once you're done and I may be able to review your draft (or someone else will) and then it can be promoted to an article. Alaexis¿question? 13:55, 3 February 2024 (UTC)

Question from Pare Javsb on Talk:Harry Potter (21:17, 5 February 2024)
Hi I want to right sone facts about Harry Potter and since I’m pretty new to this app I don’t know.May you please help me? --Pare Javsb (talk) 21:17, 5 February 2024 (UTC)


 * @Pare Javsb, it's a semi-protected article, so you may not be able to edit it just now. I'd suggest submitting an edit request here. Alaexis¿question? 12:16, 13 February 2024 (UTC)

Question from Baby njie (11:11, 12 February 2024)
hell, i want to write a report on food safety hygiene --Baby njie (talk) 11:11, 12 February 2024 (UTC)


 * Hi @Baby njie, I'm not sure what you need, but reviewing Food safety article would be a good start probably. Alaexis¿question? 12:18, 13 February 2024 (UTC)

Principality of Pronsk
Hi, I am starting work on creating articles for appanage principalities and appanage princes (surprisingly there is almost nothing). I just started Principality of Pronsk. Please let me know if you have any feedback or suggestions that you would like to share. Thanks. Mellk (talk) 15:08, 14 February 2024 (UTC)


 * It's great that you've started working on it! I'm sure you've checked the ruwiki article, it has more information about the principality, although frustratingly there are no inline citations.
 * Here are a couple of images you may want to use for illustration
 * Facial_Chronicle_-_b.12,_p.145.gif
 * Пронское городище и вид с него на долину реки Прони.JPG
 * Good luck! Please let me know once you've created other articles, I'd be happy to review them. Alaexis¿question? 22:43, 14 February 2024 (UTC)
 * Yes, I was hoping to add information from Пронское княжество but unfortunately there is a lack of citations. Thanks for the help. Mellk (talk) 07:22, 15 February 2024 (UTC)
 * I also made a start on Principality of Tarusa. I am just not sure what could be considered the definite end date, though. I have seen some sources mention 1392, when Vasily I received the yarlyk to annex Tarusa, but there were still a couple more princes of Tarusa after this in some years (more like vassalage) and the appanages were still switching between Lithuania and Moscow until they were eventually all annexed by Moscow. Тарусское княжество says 13th to 15th centuries, for example. Mellk (talk) 11:50, 18 February 2024 (UTC)
 * Looks good! Regarding the end date, according to Kelembet the (already non-independent) Tarusa princes lost Tarusa town for good between 1462 and 1473 (, p. 124).
 * Also, it's possible that the claim that Yury was a son of Michail of Chernigov is a later fabrication (Kelembet, pp. 71-75) Alaexis¿question? 21:31, 18 February 2024 (UTC)
 * Also, there are apparently some rather unimpressive remains of the old city and a modern monument commemorating them . I can't find any images on WikiCommons though. Alaexis¿question? 21:36, 18 February 2024 (UTC)
 * Thanks, I'll try to incorporate this information into the article. Mellk (talk) 14:26, 19 February 2024 (UTC)

Question from Mujahid 1250 (09:53, 18 February 2024)
if my edition in article is not to strong it will remove from that article? does it effect my profile? --Mujahid 1250 (talk) 09:53, 18 February 2024 (UTC)


 * @Mujahid 1250, I'm not sure I understood your question. If you are unsure about the edits you want to make, just propose them at talk pages first. Alaexis¿question? 10:36, 18 February 2024 (UTC)

Question from Vananhtrn95 (10:28, 22 February 2024)
Hi! Thank you for supporting me. I read that my table on Wikipedia are big and not optimized for mobile. Do you have any suggestions to improve? I'm working on https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Trinity_(boy_band) --Vananhtrn95 (talk) 10:28, 22 February 2024 (UTC)


 * Hi @Vananhtrn95, which table are you trying to add and who told you that it's not good (and where did they do it?)? I need some context to help you. Alaexis¿question? 10:39, 22 February 2024 (UTC)
 * Hi @Alaexis! Thank you for replying so quickly. I read that in the "Lint errors" section, where they said:
 * Big Tables that are hard to view on mobile: 3
 * Here is the reference link: https://en.wikipedia.org/w/index.php?title=Trinity_(boy_band)&action=info
 * Does that help? Vananhtrn95 (talk) 10:41, 22 February 2024 (UTC)
 * This looks like a warning rather than an error. Unfortunately I have no experience whatsoever with Lint, maybe it's better to ask this question at Wikipedia talk:Linter. Alaexis¿question? 10:54, 22 February 2024 (UTC)
 * Thank you @Alaexis, I will do so. Can you take a look at the page I'm working on and let me know if you have further suggestions on the editing and formatting? Trinity (boy band). Thank you! Vananhtrn95 (talk) 10:58, 22 February 2024 (UTC)

Protection of the status
Hello, please pay attention to the article Caucasian war, I added information to the template because it is in the article itself, but it is constantly being removed, which spoils the development Alsho093 (talk) 21:57, 25 February 2024 (UTC)


 * Sure, I'll take a look at it a bit later. In the meantime I suggest you open a thread at the talk page of that article and ask for explanations from the editor who has removed the information you've added. Alaexis¿question? 22:04, 25 February 2024 (UTC)
 * I wrote to him, he claims that they did not participate, although it is written just below, it is already written in the most, then they participated, this is already vandalism, thank you for your attention Alsho093 (talk) 22:07, 25 February 2024 (UTC)
 * Please start a discussion at the talk page, this is the right place where it will be more visible to others. Alaexis¿question? 22:17, 25 February 2024 (UTC)

Question from CaptivatingtheKing (07:04, 26 February 2024)
Hello there! I am working on my first draft article and wondering how many sources you recommend. Is 50 a respectable amount? --CaptivatingtheKing (talk) 07:04, 26 February 2024 (UTC)


 * Hi @CaptivatingtheKing, it depends a lot on the topic. Can you share a link to your draft? Alaexis¿question? 07:48, 26 February 2024 (UTC)
 * I think this is the link: User:CaptivatingtheKing/sandbox
 * Please let me know if that gives you access! Of course, I'm trying to make things as clear and well sourced as possible. CaptivatingtheKing (talk) 07:53, 26 February 2024 (UTC)
 * The article is quite comprehensive and can be promoted. Thanks for contributing to Wikipedia! Alaexis¿question? 09:29, 26 February 2024 (UTC)
 * Wonderful! How do I promote it? Do I submit it to you for review directly as my mentor? CaptivatingtheKing (talk) 11:23, 26 February 2024 (UTC)
 * I've moved it to the mainspace. For your reference, there are two options: you could submit your draft for review using the big blue button, or you could move it to the mainspace yourself if you're confident that it's notable (you might need some user rights for that though).
 * Regarding the article itself, there is one problematic source used in it, Findagrave. It's not considered a reliable source (see WP:RSP), so please remove or replace it. Alaexis¿question? 19:02, 26 February 2024 (UTC)
 * Thank you for moving it to the mainspace and explaining the options. I have removed the problematic source with a credible one! Is there a list of sources that are not reputable I could familiarise myself with? I wouldn't want to make the mistake again unknowingly. CaptivatingtheKing (talk) 02:36, 27 February 2024 (UTC)
 * Happy to have helped! There are some sources which are considered completely unreliable because they contain user-generated content (like Findagrave) and many more whose reliability depends on the context. The summary can be found at WP:RSP. Alaexis¿question? 14:48, 27 February 2024 (UTC)
 * Quick follow up question: Does the fact the article is moved to the mainspace mean it can be seen by other users? Will the article be 'Googleable'? CaptivatingtheKing (talk) 03:07, 27 February 2024 (UTC)
 * Yes and yes, you can check it yourself. Alaexis¿question? 14:49, 27 February 2024 (UTC)

Question from Paul Doughty (01:01, 28 February 2024)
Hello. I am Drew Doughty’s father and did some edits the last couple of days but I realize now that I needed to log in. Are you able to advise if you can place those edits back. --Paul Doughty (talk) 01:01, 28 February 2024 (UTC)


 * Hi, I suppose you're referring to Drew Doughty article. If your edits have been reverted, the right thing to do is to explain your reasoning at that article's talk page. Please be aware of the policy on the conflict of interest. Alaexis¿question? 09:00, 28 February 2024 (UTC)

Question from Jamesborland43 (23:27, 28 February 2024)
Hello, I just finished my draft page for a non-profit, and I was wondering how I should submit it for review? Here is the page: https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Draft:Kiss_The_Ground --Jamesborland43 (talk) 23:27, 28 February 2024 (UTC)


 * Hi, I see that your submission has been declined. Please address the concerned raised by the editor who declined it or ask them for clarifications and/or help. Alaexis¿question? 08:36, 29 February 2024 (UTC)

Misimians and Sanigs
Hello, could you help with these articles, they constantly remove my edits accusing me of "vandalism", could you help?. Alsho093 (talk) 22:36, 3 March 2024 (UTC)


 * Hi, I saw that you've removed some sourced information in those articles. Can you explain at the talk page what's the problem with the information you've removed? Alaexis¿question? 08:33, 4 March 2024 (UTC)
 * the story is fictional and does not correspond to the sources about the tribe, although It is usually not a tribe, but only separatists from one tribe Alsho093 (talk) 09:36, 4 March 2024 (UTC)
 * The Misimians were the descendants of Byzantium and lived on the territory of present-day Russia. They were not in Kodora, but only in Eastern Abkhazia and Karachay-Cherkessia, that's what Alsho093 (talk) 09:37, 4 March 2024 (UTC)
 * Look, the way Wikipedia works is that you need sources supporting what you say. Now these articles are based on Georgian historiography. To add alternative views, you need to find sources which describe them. Alaexis¿question? 10:25, 4 March 2024 (UTC)
 * I have already done it, but I have not removed the Georgian ones, since they exist, it means that someone has this theory and even if it is false, there is a place to be in the article for the kind Alsho093 (talk) 10:49, 4 March 2024 (UTC)

Principality of Abkhazia

Russia–NATO relations
With respect, reverting my Chechnya edit to Russia–NATO relations was not appropriate. The proper action was to contact me, use the Talk page, and/or add a citation needed flag. It's not just "all post-Soviet conflicts"—it's at least as relevant as Georgia, and the destruction and subjugation of Chechnya is a direct precursor to what Russia (Putin) is now doing to Ukraine. I've added it back with a supporting citation. Please do not engage in an edit war. John Navas (talk) 00:29, 13 March 2024 (UTC)


 * @Jnavas2, thanks for adding the source. There are some other issues which I'll raise at the talk. I'm sorry if it felt inappropriate, however this is certainly not an edit war . WP:BRD is a widely used editing practice. Alaexis¿question? 08:38, 13 March 2024 (UTC)
 * "In other situations, you may have better success with alternatives to this approach. Care and diplomacy should be exercised. Some editors will see any reversion as a challenge, so be considerate and patient."
 * I have added additional context to Talk:Russia–NATO relations.
 * John Navas (talk) 15:37, 13 March 2024 (UTC)
 * I've just realized how I'm wasting both your time and mine, for which I apologize. I used to contribute to Wikipedia long ago, but endless grief from arrogant a******s drove me away. I had heard that Wikipedia had cleaned up its act, but I see that's not really true, and I don't care enough about Wikipedia to waste any more time. I will delete my contribution and try to remember to not waste more time, or to take Wikipedia content seriously. John Navas (talk) 05:04, 14 March 2024 (UTC)

RFA2024 update: no longer accepting new proposals in phase I
Hey there! This is to let you know that phase I of the 2024 requests for adminship (RfA) review is now no longer accepting new proposals. Lots of proposals remain open for discussion, and the current round of review looks to be on a good track towards making significant progress towards improving RfA's structure and environment. I'd like to give my heartfelt thanks to everyone who has given us their idea for change to make RfA better, and the same to everyone who has given the necessary feedback to improve those ideas. The following proposals remain open for discussion:


 * Proposal 2, initiated by, provides for the addition of a text box at Requests for adminship reminding all editors of our policies and enforcement mechanisms around decorum.
 * Proposals 3 and 3b, initiated by and, respectively, provide for trials of discussion-only periods at RfA. The first would add three extra discussion-only days to the beginning, while the second would convert the first two days to discussion-only.
 * Proposal 5, initiated by, provides for a trial of RfAs without threaded discussion in the voting sections.
 * Proposals 6c and 6d, initiated by, provide for allowing users to be selected as provisional admins for a limited time through various concrete selection criteria and smaller-scale vetting.
 * Proposal 7, initiated by, provides for the "General discussion" section being broken up with section headings.
 * Proposal 9b, initiated by, provides for the requirement that allegations of policy violation be substantiated with appropriate links to where the alleged misconduct occured.
 * Proposals 12c, 21, and 21b, initiated by, , and , respectively, provide for reducing the discretionary zone, which currently extends from 65% to 75%. The first would reduce it 65%–70%, the second would reduce it to 50%–66%, and the third would reduce it to 60%–70%.
 * Proposal 13, initiated by, provides for periodic, privately balloted admin elections.
 * Proposal 14, initiated by, provides for the creation of some minimum suffrage requirements to cast a vote.
 * Proposals 16 and 16c, initiated by and, respectively, provide for community-based admin desysop procedures. 16 would desysop where consensus is established in favor at the administrators' noticeboard; 16c would allow a petition to force reconfirmation.
 * Proposal 16e, initiated by, would extend the recall procedures of 16 to bureaucrats.
 * Proposal 17, initiated by, provides for "on-call" admins and 'crats to monitor RfAs for decorum.
 * Proposal 18, initiated by, provides for lowering the RfB target from 85% to 75%.
 * Proposal 24, initiated by, provides for a more robust alternate version of the optional candidate poll.
 * Proposal 25, initiated by, provides for the requirement that nominees be extended-confirmed in addition to their nominators.
 * Proposal 27, initiated by, provides for the creation of a training course for admin hopefuls, as well as periodic retraining to keep admins from drifting out of sync with community norms.
 * Proposal 28, initiated by, tightens restrictions on multi-part questions.

To read proposals that were closed as unsuccessful, please see Requests for adminship/2024 review/Phase I/Closed proposals. You are cordially invited once again to participate in the open discussions; when phase I ends, phase II will review the outcomes of trial proposals and refine the implementation details of other proposals. Another notification will be sent out when this phase begins, likely with the first successful close of a major proposal. Happy editing! theleekycauldron (talk • she/her), via:

Question from TheyMustKnowTheTRUTH (12:11, 21 March 2024)
Hey Alaexis! How do I ensure what I'm writing is correct information; for example, if I'm writing in the Hamburg, Germany page and I find information somewhere else that tells me the population was different was to what the WIKI page says, how do I ensure which one is correct? --TheyMustKnowTheTRUTH (talk) 12:11, 21 March 2024 (UTC)


 * @TheyMustKnowTheTRUTH, if you've checked the source for the existing figure and you're absolutely sure that it's incorrect and the information you found elsewhere is correct, then you should simply update the article providing the source for the added information.
 * If you're not wholly sure, or if the article is edit-protected, then it's best to raise it at the article's talk page. Alaexis¿question? 09:16, 22 March 2024 (UTC)
 * Hi Alaexis, sorry my house set on fire and I was incapable of replying! Is there anyway I can create a forum on my house being set on fire on March 22 2024? I feel it is an important part of history, and I could even use it to forewarn others in the foreseen future and possibly help save a life with my experience!

 * If you're editing article code, just look at the source code of an article that already has links in an infobox (e.g., Trabzon). If you're using the visual editor I can't help you since I don't use it myself. Alaexis¿question? 09:22, 22 March 2024 (UTC)

Khan Younis Stike
Hi Alaexis, thanks for the constructive criticism. I've readded the Khan Younis information in the proper section (Indiscriminate attacks). Also, apologies for not adding a source overtly calling it a war crime in the first place. I didn't do my due diligence because the footage is self-evident, but I should've. ArthropodLover (talk) 18:32, 24 March 2024 (UTC)


 * Thanks for adding the source. I've included the IDF's response as well, per our sources, and to give the reader additional context. Alaexis¿question? 21:19, 24 March 2024 (UTC)

Unexplained removal of content
Alaexis, you recently removed content here with edit summary of only "the invasion is long under way so the future tense doesn't make sense". If the tense is the only issue then that should have been fixed rather than the content removed altogether.

Help with the article [[Principality of Abkhazia ]
Please help me protect the article from vandals Alsho093 (talk) 20:01, 7 April 2024 (UTC)

Afro-Abkhazians
If you find the information not fitting, I suggest you put it in a different article instead of erasing it from Cyberspace. Shoshin000 (talk) 08:12, 8 April 2024 (UTC)


 * It's not erased, all the versions of all articles are permanently saved. This information doesn't belong to the article about Afro-Abkhazians, please feel free to add it to other articles. If you think it should be retained, you can seek outside feedback via WP:DR or at WP:WikiProject Caucasia. Alaexis¿question? 08:19, 8 April 2024 (UTC)
 * I don't agree with this way of doing. That bit was not misleading anyone, it was "Africans in other parts of the Caucasus". Erasing from Cyberspace was a figure of speech, but in any case you made information less accessible.
 * Regarding adding to another article, do you have any proposal? Shoshin000 (talk) 08:34, 8 April 2024 (UTC)
 * Well, the part about Africans in Batumi can be added to the article about that city. I'm not sure that the fact that the Library of congress has a picture of a Black Karabakhi and the picture of a random African in Vladikavkaz merit the inclusion into Wikipedia. However, if there were notable communities of African descent there, then they should be described in the relevant articles and the photo can be used as an illustration.
 * Finally, if reliable sources link these Africans to the Afro-Abkhazians then we can mention them in this article, but to the best of my knowledge they are unrelated. Alaexis¿question? 08:55, 8 April 2024 (UTC)
 * What about creating a more general article "Africans in the Caucasus" or something similar?
 * And I'll repeat: that contextualized bit was not misleading anyone. Shoshin000 (talk) 09:46, 8 April 2024 (UTC)
 * I have no problems with creating such an article. I didn't say it was misleading. If you had added this content to the article about Afro-Germans it wouldn't have been misleading but would be irrelevant. Alaexis¿question? 10:10, 8 April 2024 (UTC)
 * Also, please be aware of the WP:3RR rule. Alaexis¿question? 08:31, 8 April 2024 (UTC)
 * Hey, I've checked WikiProject Caucasia and WikiProject African Diaspora, but they both seem inactive. I personally don't have time to start a whole article about the African diaspora in the Caucasus, so I think that until now it's the lesser evil. In the sense that it's better than having the information on the topic be inaccessible. Regarding Batumi, I think that adding it in that article alone is not as relevant, as people looking for information on Africans in the Caucasus are more likely to stumble upon "Afro-Abkhazians" than "Batumi". Shoshin000 (talk) 08:35, 13 April 2024 (UTC)
 * I disagree with this logic. It's like adding information to the articles about Africans in Britain to the article about about African Germans just because both Britain and Germany are in Europe. The Caucasus is big and very diverse. The Afro-Abkhazians have their own distinct history and have nothing to do with Africans in Karabakh or Vladikavkaz. Alaexis¿question? 12:00, 13 April 2024 (UTC)
 * Sure, but again, removing it without creating an alternative is essentially being destructive. Shoshin000 (talk) 13:39, 13 April 2024 (UTC)

Help needed
Please help me change some pages that misslead people and have wrong info. Hamas is a terror organization which it's main purpose is to demolish Israel. As seen on the events of the 7th of October. They don't care about the citizens of Gaza, that's why they take every humanitarian aid the area receives. They are brutal, moved by the lust for blood and nothing less. They have kidnapped innocent civilians, which obviously is against war laws. They tortured many men, women and children. Did unbearable things, and yet Wikipedia calls them "resistance movement" and not a terror organization. Change that ASAP! Proof: https://embassies.gov.il/san-francisco/AboutIsrael/Pages/Hamas-Covenant.aspx This link has 36 articles showing what Hamas's true beliefs are. Simkameow (talk) 21:13, 9 April 2024 (UTC)


 * @Simkameow, I completely agree that the coverage of Hamas here is not good. Regarding the "terror organisation" label, Wikipedia has a policy about that (MOS:TERROR) which says that we can write that many countries consider them terrorists but not call them this way in Wikipedia's own voice.
 * Personally, I think that labels are less important than providing information about their real beliefs and activities. I'll check your link, maybe I'd be able to add some information from it.
 * Also, I urge you to contribute to Wikipedia in other areas in order to be able to participate in these discussions directly (see WP:XC). Alaexis¿question? 06:39, 10 April 2024 (UTC)

DYK for History of the Jews in Dubrovnik
&spades;PMC&spades; (talk) 00:03, 15 April 2024 (UTC)

It's right there in the article
No, it isn't, It says that CST said that (this has also been discussed at RSN, the MEMO discussion). Selfstudier (talk) 21:54, 15 April 2024 (UTC)


 * I re-read it and I see your point, as it's not exactly clear from the article whether the characterisation comes from the CST or from Pfeffer.
 * The Community Security Trust, the main Jewish organization monitoring all forms of racism, highlighted on its website that Corbyn is also scheduled to appear soon at a conference of the conspiracy-theory peddling anti-Israel organization Middle East Monitor, along with the anti-Semitic and Holocaust denier cartoonist Carlos Latuff.
 * I've found the original post, in which MEMO is characterised as "Islamist lobby group." No mention of conspiracies, so it must come from Pfeffer. Alaexis¿question? 06:16, 16 April 2024 (UTC)
 * It says right there in that original post "MEMO has featured repeatedly on the CST Blog for peddling conspiracy theories and myths about Jews,.." Can we just cut the bs now, please? Selfstudier (talk) 10:23, 16 April 2024 (UTC)
 * I didn't notice it, thanks for pointing it out. I've fixed the attribution in the article. Please note that WP:CIVIL is a policy. Alaexis¿question? 11:10, 16 April 2024 (UTC)
 * I am ordinarily civil, except when faced with recalcitrance. Now you have attributed CST, a charity with zero expertise in news and when the information comes from a blog and not from CST itself, so that is therefore undue. Selfstudier (talk) 11:34, 16 April 2024 (UTC)
 * Well, it was mentioned by Haaretz so we're not using their blog as the source. The CST have quite a lot of experience in conspiracy theories and are widely cited by other RS . Alaexis¿question? 11:52, 16 April 2024 (UTC)
 * It's not the CST, it's a CST blog. Never mind, I will raise it at the article directly since further discussion here seems pointless. Selfstudier (talk) 12:00, 16 April 2024 (UTC)

Partition Plan
Ah, thanks for offering to respond here :) I was unsure how to react; in Germany, we don't have the rule that discussions are not allowed on talk pages.

Firstly, you are of course right that the bulk of the subdistrict was and remains unsuitable for agriculture. However, I am bothered by the phrasing in this section because it simultaneously obscures how the partition proposal was perceived. It was not seen as barren land. I have linked to Chacour on the talk page. This is not a scientific work, but rather a type of memoir; there you can see how it was perceived: "What, even our breadbasket is now to be stolen from us!?" There are several lists by Arab authors detailing what was "unfair" about the partition plan, and the inclusion of agricultural land in the Negev is often mentioned. (So, I don't think this is original research). Hence, I think it needs to be clearly stated that now, of the five major agricultural areas of Palestine, not three but four were supposed to go to Israel.

That Bedouins farmed in the Central Negev is very well established. See Mayerson 1960 (whole article), the said dissertation by Bruins, Avni 2019, p. 7 (cool photos); Meraiot et al. 2021, p. 10f.; Mor-Mussery 2022, 3.2 also Stavi u.a. 2017, 3.2 on the Aravah (I didn't know that before). Ashkenazy 2019, p. 3 has a map with old Bedouin orchards, see also Abu Sitta 2009, p. 11 on the map on p. 13. (so, this isn't OR either). But, again, you are right, the whole southern half is not arable.

The phrasing also bothers me a bit because of the current political discussions in Israel, but that's probably only of secondary importance for the page. Just so you understand: Israel has declared much of this area as state land. Bedouins have filed several thousand claims, and most have been denied. Often with the note that this was "dead land" (mawat); this is then used to argue that no one could have lived there, so the respective Bedouin claims cannot be accepted. The Bedouins then respond that it was obviously fertile land - but this is often not accepted by the courts (if you believe Kedar: almost never. Cf. also the very good article of Rangwala 2004). So, writing that the Negev was predominantly barren is also a political statement nowadays, sadly. But I'm not too attached to it; if you're not convinced, feel free to leave it :) DaWalda (talk) 20:39, 19 April 2024 (UTC)


 * Non-extended-confirmed editors are placed under certain restrictions per this ArbCom ruling.
 * Let's give other editors a chance to weigh in at the talk page.
 * Btw, we don't have a good treatment of the historical agriculture in the Negev. Maybe you could create a WP:DRAFT of an article about it? Or at least to add a section to one of the existing articles. Alaexis¿question? 12:24, 20 April 2024 (UTC)


 * I have drafted something. I am not finished yet; I still lack knowledge about the Crusader period. And it is definitely too long for a single article. I don't know yet what could be safely omitted or how it could be split. Do you have any ideas off the top of your head (without having to read it all, of course)? DaWalda (talk) 17:38, 12 June 2024 (UTC)
 * Wow, this is really impressive. I haven't read it yet but I certainly will, this is a fascinating topic.
 * As to the size, the rough guideline is that an article shouldn't have more than 8-9k words, your draft is just below 9k so I wouldn't worry too much about the size.
 * The article seems to be almost ready for moving to main space. I hope to be able to give feedback in the next few days. You may also seek additional feedback, the members of WP:WikiProject Palestine and WP:Wikiproject Israel would be interested as well. Alaexis¿question? 20:52, 12 June 2024 (UTC)
 * May I ask: What is the usual practice in the English Wikipedia for requesting feedback on Wiki projects? Do I just submit it under "Articles for Creation" on the main page or do I write something informal on the Talk page? Thank you! DaWalda (talk) 21:05, 23 June 2024 (UTC)

Question from Ceswyd (06:35, 10 May 2024)
Hi there Alaexis, I was wondering if you could provide some insight to me, as a new paid editor with declared COI, if there is anything I can adjust or improve in the recent edit requests I posted on 2x pages to update them with more recent information? I am also keen to understand what timeframe you would generally expect requests like this to be acknowledged and reviewed by independent Wikieditors? Thanks so much. --Ceswyd (talk) 06:35, 10 May 2024 (UTC)


 * A couple of weeks should be enough I think. If you want to increase your chances of getting feedback you could also leave a note at Wikiprojects (e.g., WikiProject_Australia). The edits for the most part seem okay, I have just one comment, will write it at the talk page. Alaexis¿question? 08:46, 10 May 2024 (UTC)

Hello, I am Siddharth and I am a Sindhi speaker from India. Even though there is a Sindhi version of Wikipedia, it is only in the perso Arabic script but Sindhi is written in more than one scripts.

How do I put a title on it. I am having a lot of trouble navigating around the site. Do I have to cancel the submission and then submit it after I put a title on it.? If you could glance at what I have done, and then give me some advice about how to proceed, I would be very happy. Thank you 0iet0 --0iet0 (talk) 01:12, 18 June 2024 (UTC)


 * @0iet0, apologies for the late response. The issue with the title is a trivial one, you will just need to rename it to James Andrews (artist). The issues raised by u:Ratnahastin who has declined your submission are much more important and I suggest you address them first. I agree with them that the draft now reads as a catalogue of the artist's works rather than as an encyclopaedic article. However, I do see coverage by independent sources and I believe that the draft would be accepted if you improve it. If I were you I'd start a discussion at Draft_talk:Jim_Andrews and show that the coverage by independent reliable sources exists, and also I would transform the list of works into a (shorter) narrative about the artist's works. Then you can ask u:Ratnahastin or another editor to re-review your draft.

Question from TomM24 (16:39, 10 July 2024)
Hello Alaexis‬! I've created a Wikipedia account recently because I wanted to create an article about a family member, and whilst I believe they meet the criteria for notability (independent coverage from multiple secondary sources) there is obviously a conflict of interest present due to my direct relationship with the subject. Am I still able to create this article as long as I declare the COI, or, given that I am unable to do so, is there a way to request an article to be created by an independent editor? Thank you very much for your time. --TomM24 (talk) 16:39, 10 July 2024 (UTC)

WP:1RR at Israel–Hamas war
Hi; at topics related to the Israel-Arab conflict, editors are restricted to one revert every 24 hours: An editor must not perform on a —whether involving the same or different material—within a. An edit or a series of consecutive edits that undoes or manually reverses other editors' actions—whether in whole or in part—counts as a revert.

In the past 24 hours you have made two reverts:
