User talk:Avner Kushner

Welcome!

Hello, Avner Kushner, and welcome to Wikipedia! Thank you for your contributions. I hope you like the place and decide to stay. Unfortunately, your edit to Gaza Strip does not conform to Wikipedia's Neutral Point of View policy (NPOV). Wikipedia articles should refer only to facts and interpretations that have been stated in print or on reputable websites or other forms of media.

There's a page about the NPOV policy that has tips on how to effectively write about disparate points of view without compromising the NPOV status of the article as a whole. If you are stuck, and looking for help, please come to the New contributors' help page, where experienced Wikipedians can answer any queries you have! Or, to ask for help on your talk page, and a volunteer should respond shortly. Below are a few other good links for newcomers: I hope you enjoy editing here and being a Wikipedian! Please sign your name on talk pages using four tildes ( ~ ); this will automatically produce your name and the date. If you have any questions, check out Where to ask a question or ask me on my talk page. Again, welcome! — Malik Shabazz Talk/Stalk 03:19, 13 August 2015 (UTC)

Welcome to Wikipedia and thank you for your contributions. I am glad to see that you are discussing a topic. However, as a general rule, talk pages such as Talk:Israel are for discussion related to improving the article, not general discussion about the topic or unrelated topics. If you have specific questions about certain topics, consider visiting our reference desk and asking them there instead of on article talk pages. Thank you. — Malik Shabazz Talk/Stalk 03:27, 13 August 2015 (UTC)

Gaza Strip
The source you used, "Why does Israel supply Gaza with electricity and cement?", is an opinion piece, not a news article. I reverted your changes to Gaza Strip because, per WP:NEWSORG, a section of Wikipedia's guideline concerning reliable sources, opinion pieces are not considered reliable sources for statements of fact. — Malik Shabazz Talk/Stalk 02:49, 16 August 2015 (UTC)

1RR
You have broken the 1RR rule on Gaza Strip: please self-revert, or you will be reported, Huldra (talk) 21:56, 16 August 2015 (UTC)


 * I second what Huldra said. Administrators don't take lightly edit-warring and 1RR/3RR violations. — MShabazz Talk/Stalk 22:10, 16 August 2015 (UTC)
 * PS: I'm not a Pakistani Muslim, not that there's anything wrong with that. — MShabazz Talk/Stalk 22:10, 16 August 2015 (UTC)


 * After* I warned you here, you go arguing on the talk-page, instead of reverting. This makes me believe that you have no intention of reverting. (Please prove me wrong!). I will therefor report you.Huldra (talk) 22:23, 16 August 2015 (UTC)
 * Done, Huldra (talk) 22:39, 16 August 2015 (UTC)

August 2015
To enforce an arbitration decision and for bright line violation of 1RR on Gaza Strip, you have been blocked from editing for a period of 24 hours. You are welcome to edit once the block expires; however, please note that the repetition of similar behavior may result in a longer block or other sanctions. If you believe this block is unjustified, please read the guide to appealing blocks (specifically this section) before appealing. Place the following on your talk page:. If you intend to appeal on the arbitration enforcement noticeboard I suggest you use the arbitration enforcement appeals template on your talk page so it can be copied over easily. You may also appeal directly to me (by email), before or instead of appealing on your talk page. Philg88 ♦talk 05:38, 17 August 2015 (UTC)  Reminder to administrators: In May 2014, ArbCom adopted a procedure instructing administrators as follows: "No administrator may modify a sanction placed by another administrator without: (1) the explicit prior affirmative consent of the enforcing administrator; or (2) prior affirmative agreement for the modification at (a) AE or (b) AN or (c) ARCA (see "Important notes" [in the procedure]). Administrators modifying sanctions out of process may at the discretion of the committee be desysopped."

Indefblocked
Looking through your edit history, it's clear that you're here to pursue an aggressive and tendentious agenda in relation to Israel/Palestine topics. You are clearly not a new user, as your familiarity with Wikipedia demonstrates, and I therefore suspect you to be the reincarnation of a previously blocked/banned user. That said, it is not the reason for my blocking you indefinitely, I have done so because you are self-evidently not here to build an encyclopedia, but to pursue an agenda in breach of wikipedia behavioural and neutrality guidelines. If you wish to appeal against this block, you may do so by using the template unblock, but I suspect you know that already. WJBscribe (talk) 16:19, 18 August 2015 (UTC)
