Hamas
Hamas promotes Palestinian nationalism in an Islamic context.[63] In its 1988 charter, Hamas articulated its objective to establish an Islamic Palestinian state throughout the entire territory of Mandatory Palestine. Subsequently Hamas began acquiescing to 1967 borders in the agreements it signed with Fatah in 2005, 2006 and 2007[64][65][66] In 2017, Hamas released a new charter that supported a Palestinian state within the 1967 borders without recognizing Israel.[67][68][69][70][71] Hamas's repeated offers of a truce (for a period of 10–100 years[72]) based on the 1967 borders are seen by some scholars as consistent with a two-state solution.[73][74][75][76] Other scholars say truce does not imply a permanent peace with or recognition of Israel and that Hamas retains the long-term objective of establishing one state in former Mandatory Palestine.[77][78] The 1988 Hamas charter was widely described as antisemitic.[79][80][81] The revised 2017 Hamas Charter stated that Hamas's struggle was with Zionists, not with Jews.[82][83][84]

How can I make these proposed edits, better generally for wikipedia - and also, specifically, for my unblock review? joe joe 06:13, 20 November 2023 (UTC)

a few things joe joe: 1; when signing a comment, use four tildes in this format ~ ~ ~ ~ (but dont have a space there like i did. I repeat; NO SPACES). 2; trying your edits in the sandbox, is always a good idea. 3; i dont know why, but it may be the reflist-talk template you used, but i couldn't use the reply future and had to edit the source as a reply. 4; in my opinion, it is best to write this comment on the talk page of the article you want edited (hamas in this case?) and use the help me template there. lastly, i would help in writing this but i believe that it would constitute a COI on my part. i hope you get help from someone who is allowed to assist, Megabits000 (talk) 20:06, 22 October 2023 (UTC)
 * If your above passage is your proposed edit, simply make a new unblock request. 331dot (talk) 20:27, 22 October 2023 (UTC)
 * Thank you Megabits for your help. joe joe 06:13, 20 November 2023 (UTC)

To be completely crystal clear, you are rejecting the path I offered you to demonstrate you are capable of editing appropriately? --Yamla (talk) 12:43, 25 October 2023 (UTC)


 * I do want to demonstrate I am capable of editing appropriately. I added a notion to the existing page, and also added several internal links. Do let me know how I may better demonstrate an ability to appropriately edit a page.
 * Sincerely,

 * Those edits clearly demonstrated you should not be unblocked as you do not understand WP:CITE and WP:RS. --Yamla (talk) 14:01, 25 October 2023 (UTC)
