WP:ARBPIA3
Welcome to Wikipedia. The Arbitration Committee has restricted editors with less than 500 edits and 30 days tenure from editing articles in the Arab-Israeli conflict topic area. You can read about this here. Please refrain from editing articles in that topic area until you have qualified to do so.  nableezy  - 02:13, 16 July 2018 (UTC)

As you have been informed already, you are not permitted to edit in the Israel-Arab part of Wikipedia. Cease now or I will have you blocked. I also notice that your edits show no sign of conformity to Wikipedia policy. Zerotalk 12:19, 16 July 2018 (UTC)
 * To echo the above, please do not continue to edit material related to the Arab-Israeli topic area until you have reached the requirements for it. Thank you.  nableezy  - 14:49, 16 July 2018 (UTC)

Wikipedia and copyright
Hello Cm613, and welcome to Wikipedia. All or some of your addition(s) to Shaul Yisraeli have been removed, as they appear to have added copyrighted material without evidence of permission from the copyright holder. While we appreciate your contributions to Wikipedia, there are certain things you must keep in mind about using information from sources to avoid copyright and 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 the 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 legally designated agent, you may be able to license that text so that we can publish it here. Understand, though, that unlike many other sites, where a person can license their content for use there and retain non-free ownership, that is not possible at Wikipedia. Rather, the release of content must be irrevocable, to the world, into the public domain (PD) or under a suitably-free and compatible copyright license. Such a release must be done in a verifiable manner, so that the authority of the person purporting to release the copyright is evidenced. See Donating copyrighted materials.
 * In very rare cases (that is, for sources that are PD or compatibly licensed) it may be possible to include greater portions of a source text. However, please seek help at Media copyright questions, the help desk or the Teahouse 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 must follow the copyright attribution steps in Translation. See also 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. — Diannaa 🍁 (talk) 13:39, 24 July 2018 (UTC)

OK Diannaa, thanks for the link on paraphrasing. I will try again.Cm613 (talk) 14:16, 24 July 2018 (UTC)

Kook
I see you are promoting HaRav Kook on Judaism articles. Debresser (talk) 22:07, 28 July 2018 (UTC)

Not too many secrets here... I saw a lot of darkness on Wikipedia, and decided to follow Rav Kook's advice: ″The purest righteous do not complain about evil; rather, they increase justice. They do not complain about godlessness, but increase faith. They do not complain about ignorance, but increase wisdom.″ Cm613 (talk) 07:43, 29 July 2018 (UTC)

ARBPIA violation and edit warring
Arbitration/Index/Palestine-Israel articles : " If an edit is reverted by another editor, its original author may not restore it within 24 hours of the first revert made to their edit." When you restored your edit at Ro'i, you violated this rule. I invite you to self-revert so that you aren't reported. For your information, many editors have been blocked for violating that rule.

In addition, you are on notice for edit-warring. It is utterly unacceptable to add unbalanced material like that. It even had Nazi allusions. It is 101% impossible for such edits to remain so stop wasting your time and mine. Zerotalk 10:01, 8 August 2018 (UTC)

Actually, I was just quoting from Israeli_settlement article in order to (briefly) present the other side. Nothing new in my edit that doesn't already appear in the wiki article that discusses this issue in depth. Obviously, you find that offensive and "utterly unacceptable". Cm613 (talk) 10:12, 8 August 2018 (UTC)
 * The short boilerplate already present does not present any legal arguments and is the result of years of negotiation over the wording. Consensus is to restrict arguments for or against to general articles about the settlements and not to add them to articles on particular settlements. Zerotalk 11:06, 8 August 2018 (UTC)

Where can I read these discussions? As an aside, it seems silly to me that the legal statement is inserted in each page and does not exist as a template.Cm613 (talk) 11:28, 8 August 2018 (UTC)

Ways to improve Yitzchak Sheilat
Hi, I'm Rosguill. Cm613, thanks for creating Yitzchak Sheilat!

I've just tagged the page, using our page curation tools, as having some issues to fix. The article goes into a lot of detail that is unnecessary, in some cases crossing into WP:PEACOCK territory, such as when it details like "he attended all of the rabbi's lectures, and even studied privately with him...". This minutiae is not notable (see WP:NOTAPUBLICFIGURE). There are also a lot of word choices that could be made more neutral.

I also flagged this for notability, as it's skirting the borderline of WP:GNG. The easiest way to address this is by providing more citations to secondary sources writing non-trivial content about Sheilat that are not affiliated with him. As it stands, the only source on this article that even slightly qualifies is the Arutz Sheva article, and even that is debatable since both Arutz Sheva and Yitzchak Sheilat is associated with the Religious Zionist movement.

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.

"The article is in pretty good shape, although I would suggest that you consider cutting down on the amount of direct quotes in the Opinions section, replacing them with paraphrases where appropriate."
