October 2017
Hello, I'm Samf4u. I wanted to let you know that I reverted one of your recent contributions —the one you made with this edit to Bir Abu Matar— because it did not appear constructive. If you would like to experiment, please use the sandbox. If you think I made a mistake, or if you have any questions, you can leave me a message on my talk page. Thanks. Samf4u (talk) 03:06, 21 October 2017 (UTC)
 * Hello. Could you please explain to me why you think the sections you have removed - most of the article, really - are not constructive? I am taking most of my material from the article with the same title on the Hebrew Wikipedia, plus - if you look at my list of references - I am also using a book I have on the subject. So, I'm doing quite serious work, I don't understand why you are saying that I am experimenting.... Khayyam 77 (talk) 03:16, 21 October 2017 (UTC)
 * Please accept my apology, I made a series of errors with Huggle and have reverted. - Samf4u (talk) 03:22, 21 October 2017 (UTC)
 * No problem, all good! And thank you for fixing it so quickly. Khayyam 77 (talk) 03:24, 21 October 2017 (UTC)

A barnstar for you!

Your edit at Archaeology of Israel
Hi. I reverted you there. That section should reflect the main points in the main article, see WP:SUMMARY. And of course it should be sourced to academic books and journals, which it wasn't. There's another problem I just noticed. The history article and this one should use the same terminology for the Iron Age, IMHO. Doug Weller talk 12:22, 26 January 2018 (UTC)
 * Hey. I don't see how it fails to reflect the main points of the main article, it just covers a a portion of the period covered in the main article. Other section in the article I'm editing cover other portions. I have sources, meant to add them later. As for terminology - can you please clarify, maybe give me an example?

 * I was thinking of:

Iron Age I (IA I) 1200–1000 BCE Iron Age IIA (IA IIA) 1000–925 BCE

Iron Age IIB-C (IA IIB-C) 925–586 BCE

Iron Age III 586–539 BCE (Neo-Babylonian period) The History article has Iron Age I: 1200–1000 BCE Iron Age II: 1000–586 BCE Your version is probably better but they need to match. I'd like most of the section headings to match. And, for instance: "Israel (traditionally referred to as BitUmri - House of Omri, named after the founder of the dynasty - in ancient sources) reached its peak in the 9th century BC, under the Omrides (c.885 - 835 BC). Two great administrative centers were built, either by Omri or by Ahab, one in the capital, Samaria, and the Other in Jezreel, in the north". The history article doesn't mention Jezreel (the city), Bitumri or suggest that Ahab might have built an administrative center. In fact, everything I reverted was about history except the platforms. That's not what we should have in an archaeology article. And as I said, it really needs sourcing. The history needs to be in the history section, appropriately sourced. The archaeology article should cover the major finds for each period. Then the history article can reflect that. This discussion probably belongs on the talk age.

 * The history article could use some work, IMO, and I have sources for all my material. But I understand what you meant now, thanks. Khayyam 77 (talk) 20:19, 27 January 2018 (UTC)

Wikipedia Wars and the Israel-Palestine conflict...please fill out my survey?
Hello :) I am writing my MA dissertation on Wikipedia Wars and the Israel-Palestine conflict, and I noticed that you have contributed to those pages. My dissertation will look at the process of collaborative knowledge production on the Israel-Palestine conflict, and the effect it has on bias in the articles. This will involve understanding the profiles and motivations of editors, contention/controversy and dispute resolution in the talk pages, and bias in the final article. For more information, you can check out my meta-wiki research page or my user page, where I will be posting my findings when I am done. I would greatly appreciate if you could take 5 minutes to fill out this quick survey before 8 August 2021.

Participation in this survey is entirely voluntary and anonymous. There are no foreseeable risks nor benefits to you associated with this project. Thanks so much,

Sarah Sanbar
