Wikipedia Help Survey
Hi there, my name's Peter Coombe and I'm a Wikimedia Community Fellow working on a project to improve Wikipedia's help system. At the moment I'm trying to learn more about how people use and find the current help pages. If you could help by filling out this brief survey about your experiences, I'd be very grateful. It should take less than 10 minutes, and your responses will not be tied to your username in any way.

Thank you for your time,

Israel national ice hockey team
I noticed that you changed the ranking for 2007, and 2012, in both cases incorrectly. In 2007 a Division II 3rd place team could only be ranked 33rd or 34th, 16+12+(either 5 or 6, not 7), and were behind Spain ranking 34th. In 2012 the IIHF structure changed, so that IIA was now above IIB, no longer beside it, so 5th place was 16+12+6+5=39. Even if the structure had not changed, 5th in Division II could only have been 37th or 38th, so I am not sure why you believed they were supposed to be 36th. I would advise familiarizing your self with how the IIHF ranks teams before editing the rankings.18abruce (talk) 03:54, 26 April 2013 (UTC)
 * It is not only my work. For exemple 2003 – 37th place (5th in Division II, Group B). It is not 37th place, must be 39th place. (16+12+6+5). Rank and place it is not the same.

2012 Men's World Ranking Israel's rank 40 and place 39th STUDENT57 (talk) 09:45, 26 April 2013 (UTC)
 * No, 2003 is 37th, group a and b were played along side each other that year so here is the math--16+12+(either 9 or 10). The two fifth place teams are compared to each other, and since Israel was ahead of South Africa 4 to 2, Israel is ranked 37th.  Once again, become familiar with how the ranking is done before editing please, each year as it stands is correct for Israel, I am happy to explain each one for you, but please stop changing them.  I do not have any idea why you linked the ranking score, it is a total of points accumulated from over four years, which I could explain to you as well illustrating how the ranking for each year add up to the total if that helps.18abruce (talk) 12:49, 26 April 2013 (UTC)
 * Well, now it is right?

If not, edit please and I'll study the theme. STUDENT57 (talk) 14:33, 26 April 2013 (UTC)
 * I put a breakdown of the year by year placement on the talk page for their national team, calculating the IIHF World Ranking is a lot more involved and I would look at the page that explains it. They are currently lower than perhaps expected there because they did not attempt to qualify for the 2010 Olympics while other nations at a similar level did.18abruce (talk) 16:47, 26 April 2013 (UTC)

Disambiguation link notification for August 9
Hi. Thank you for your recent edits. Wikipedia appreciates your help. We noticed though that when you edited 2013 Maccabiah Games, you added links pointing to the disambiguation pages Freestyle and Swimming (check to confirm | fix with Dab solver). Such links are almost always unintended, since a disambiguation page is merely a list of "Did you mean..." article titles. Read the FAQ* Join us at the DPL WikiProject.

 * Thank you very much about your suggestion. I will correct the text. STUDENT57 (talk) 13:47, 9 August 2013 (UTC)

Hi, thanks for your input however I also saw the opening ceremony the Israeli version, and I also see that according to the official maccabiah website that both Bulgaria and Botswana participated in the games, here are the links: http://www.maccabiah.com/delegations

I will now re-add the teams that you have removed. Thank you....

HC Metulla
They Played in 1994–95 Israeli Hockey League season, how can they have been founded only in 1996? Gil Tichon (talk) 10:58, 15 August 2014 ( גיל, אני יודע. דברתי עם מינדל. קבוצה נוסדה ב-1996
 * As above, they played in two previous seasons. Either unlink them from the previous two years as being a different club (if you can prove that), or add an explanation to the founding date please.  Reverting an attempt to make the page understandable was not helpful.18abruce (talk) 01:17, 4 October 2014 (UTC)
 * hello

To me it is also prevented. I asked about this in federftion. Said that maybe the team was not a member of the federation. STUDENT57 (talk) 09:14, 4 October 2014 (UTC)

Disambiguation link notification for March 17
Hi. Thank you for your recent edits. Wikipedia appreciates your help. We noticed though that when you edited Robert Benson (ice hockey), you added a link pointing to the disambiguation page Davidson.

No original reseach
Thanks for your help on articles. Please take note. You cannot replace RS-supported, footnoted text with your own understanding of what is true. We follow what the RS refs say. Not what you "know." See No original research. Thank you. --2604:2000:E016:A700:F4B9:7A44:D934:6DAF (talk) 18:51, 5 July 2017 (UTC) Tomorrow we'll see the opening of the Makkabiah The Bahamas, Cambodia, Haiti, Malta, the Philippines, Singapore, South Korea, aren't participate. STUDENT57 (talk) 19:30, 5 July 2017 (UTC)
 * you are not right


 * As I wrote to you elsewhere, the opening ceremonies do not reflect all participants -- see the article for example about the Israeli judo team not being there. "Israel's Judo team may miss Maccabiah Games after El Al flight delays". Just because the Israeli judo team (or others) are not in the opening ceremony does not mean that they will not participate in the event. Some competitors do not even compete until a week and a half after the opening ceremony. This is original research on your part. See No original research. Get RS support. The RS now supports what is in the article. Original research is not allowed. And yours has an obvious logical flaw in any case. See also Verifiability, not truth. If you continue to edit war by deleting RS-supported material based on your original research, which as I pointed out is in any case based on the flawed assumption that every participant in the games will be at the opening ceremony, I will ask for you to be blocked (please, though I don't want to say it, understand this is a warning for edit warring and deleting RS supported material). But I know that you are well-intentioned, even though you are not reading or understanding what I have written, so I really do not want to have to ask for a block. Please read what I have written so I am not forced to go down this road. I would rather work with you. I know you mean well. 2604:2000:E016:A700:C9B4:95C3:F2C4:D63A (talk) 18:04, 7 July 2017 (UTC)

Wikipedia should write the truth, not lie. You should also use authoritative sources. It is source and not fake news. Is Campbodia pfrticipate ? In what even? Vietnam? Yes, participate in THE first time. Do you wont write The Lie? STUDENT57 (talk) 18:28, 7 July 2017 (UTC)
 * The RS says that they are participating. We reflect that. It does not say in which event. We don't say in which event. Wikipedia reflects what the RSs say. If you don't see a delegation at the opening ceremony, that is not proof that they are not either delayed at the airport like the members of the Israeli judo delegation who missed the ceremony, or competing in two weeks and decided not to show up two weeks early just for the ceremony. 2604:2000:E016:A700:BDC1:12BD:B3AD:A142 (talk) 03:34, 8 July 2017 (UTC)

Student57, I've come to this page about a similar issue - please don't create unreferenced articles such as 2017–18 Israeli Hockey League season. Can you please add your source to the article? At the moment, it is at risk of being tagged for deletion/redirected because no information in it is verified, and that is a cornerstone of Wikipedia. Best wishes, Boleyn (talk) 06:18, 20 October 2017 (UTC)
 * Thank you. I did not ended the article yet. STUDENT57 (talk) 09:51, 20 October 2017 (UTC)

Please refrain from making unconstructive edits to Wikipedia, as you did at State-sponsored Internet propaganda‎. Your edits appear to constitute vandalism and have been reverted. If you would like to experiment, please use your sandbox. Repeated vandalism may result in the loss of editing privileges. Thank you. Horse Eye&#39;s Back (talk) 17:23, 7 February 2021 (UTC)

Is it constructive now? I wrote what really exists and gave a link to the source. The e-intifada source, of course more constructive STUDENT57 (talk) 17:41, 7 February 2021 (UTC)
 * Anytime you’re changing something to "what really exists” maybe don’t? You changed "Israeli troll armies include the Hasbara, Hasbara Fellowships and the Jewish Internet Defense Force, exclusively known for its information spreading pro-Israeli news and dismissing any reports deemed to be against Israel, frequently used by Likud leadership to promote their opinions and point of view and spreading anti-Palestinian and anti-Iranian news.” to “Israel's fight against anti-Israeli agitation and attempts to deligitimize it” which even if it was accurate (it isn’t, thats not what the new source says) isn't even a complete sentence. Also if your worry actually was the the bias of the sources provided why in the world would you choose to use algemeiner? I can see a situation in which biased sources could be combined to show a fuller picture but you didn't do that, you replaced two borderline sources with one borderline source. Horse Eye&#39;s Back (talk) 17:50, 7 February 2021 (UTC)

the electronic intifada is just a light of truth and not a troll STUDENT57 (talk) 17:58, 7 February 2021 (UTC)
 * I will add my own text, but I will remove the "troll army". When an anti-Israeli source lies, no one says that it is a troll. This is an information war. Not trolling.
 * I’ve already removed that. But just FYI its almost impossible to wage an information war without trolling. Horse Eye&#39;s Back (talk) 18:04, 7 February 2021 (UTC)


 * It's better now. This is a war, nothing can be done.

Thanks for the editorial. Good luck.

 * From your page I see you have many warnings already. Take this as your last one. Stop deleting sourced entries and the refs. There is zero excuse for that. And stop engaging in OR. See wp:or. It matters not what you believe you "know" or that your are Israeli. See wp:OR--2603:7000:2143:8500:6420:3E4E:B14:A37D (talk) 23:13, 8 August 2022 (UTC)

Trusted sources should be used. There were not 80 countries. The competition ended on July 25th. If we talk about vandalism, then it's not about me STUDENT57 (talk) 06:09, 9 August 2022 (UTC)
