Welcome
Hello Phddropput and welcome to Wikipedia! We appreciate encyclopedic contributions, but some of your contributions, such as the ones to Expansionism, do not conform to our policies. For more information on this, see Wikipedia's policies on vandalism and limits on acceptable additions. If you'd like to experiment with the wiki's syntax, please do so in the sandbox (but beware that the contents of the sandbox are deleted frequently) rather than in articles.

If you still have questions, there is a Help desk, or you can to ask for help on your talk page, and a volunteer should respond shortly. You may also find the following pages useful for a general introduction to Wikipedia.

I hope you enjoy editing and being a Wikipedian! Please sign your name on talk pages using four tildes ; this will automatically produce your name and the date.

Please do not remove content or templates from pages on Wikipedia, as you did at Expansionism, without giving a valid reason for the removal in the edit summary. Your content removal does not appear to be constructive and has been reverted. If you only meant to make a test edit, please use your sandbox for that. A change like this requires discussion on the talk page to establish consensus. Dakane2 (talk) 18:17, 26 April 2024 (UTC)

If you think something about that material is incorrect, please start a discussion on the article's talk page. Joyous! Noise! 18:17, 26 April 2024 (UTC)

Please stop. If you continue to blank out or remove portions of page content, templates, or other materials from Wikipedia without adequate explanation, as you did at Expansionism, you may be blocked from editing. The AP ( talk ) 18:21, 26 April 2024 (UTC)


 * Thank you. I had removed content because Israel’s occupation of certain territories doesn’t really qualify as expansionism because the country has been willing to return land in exchange for peace deals. The Jewish people also have an extensive history in areas of the West Bank; for example, until 1929, Jewish people had a continuous presence in Hebron dating back to well before the Roman exile. In addition, the West Bank previously “belonged” to Jordan, a country that no longer states a claim to the land. Expansionism describes policies by which countries occupy territories that are not theirs to occupy. With Israel, the situation is more complicated and nuanced.

 * That said, I won’t edit the page anymore. Feel free to read more about the complex international law questions at stake here, as well as the history of the land. Phddropput (talk) 18:36, 26 April 2024 (UTC)
 * You need to discuss these changes on the talk page. Lard Almighty (talk) 18:37, 26 April 2024 (UTC)
